AWAKENING THE DAILY INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM

Something must have happened between these two that I don’t know about.
Lin Mo had no interest in what it was, he was already halfway to achieving his goal, which was to get the attention of the real power players, and one of them had just appeared.
He had now established a connection with Grand Xia.
The other half of the task was to make Grand Xia see his value, so as to agree to some of his demands.
This was not difficult.
Moreover, by all accounts, today was only Lin Mo’s first day back in Grand Xia, and being able to meet someone of Liu Limin’s stature so soon showed that Lin Mo’s earlier preparations had gone very smoothly.
…
“Heh, Brother Liu, long time no see,” Wu Jingguo said with a smile, but there was a hint of disdain in his laughter. After a brief greeting, he turned to look at Lin Mo.
His demeanor softened when he looked at Lin Mo again, as if he had instantly transformed: “Brother Lin Mo, we meet again.”
Lin Mo nodded, uninterested in mediating between the two men.
Liu Limin had suffered a minor setback, but he showed no reaction, his smile unaltered. It was clear that he didn’t take Wu Jingguo’s attitude to heart.
Or perhaps it was a form of boasting by the victor.
Not only had he beaten the other party in actual combat, but he also acted as if he didn’t care, putting on airs of magnanimity.
Honestly, this was pretty irritating.
At least Lin Mo didn’t like it.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the three men sat down again, each taking a seat on a sofa arranged in a triangle.
Liu Limin took the initiative to pour tea for Wu Jingguo, saying, “Elder Wu, I apologize for disturbing your peace. This tea was recommended by Director Bai Feng; he said it’s a specialty from your region.”
“Just so happens, I’d like to offer it as a gift to both you and young Brother Lin Mo.”
After pouring the tea, Liu Limin drank his cup in one gulp, and Wu Jingguo did not take things too far, merely lifting his cup and drinking as well.
Once the three men had set down their cups, Liu Limin spoke again, “Lin Mo, you’re a smart man, and in front of a smart man there’s no need for beating around the bush, which you also dislike.”
“Elder Wu, you’ve dealt with him before if I’m not mistaken; I believe it was you who sold Elder Wu a set of peerless Qianlong Treasure Swords.”
“If you don’t mind, could you share where you acquired that sword?”
“Besides that set of swords, it seems you’ve collected many antiques and sold quite a few. If it’s not too much trouble, I hope you can tell us about it all too.”
“Could it be that an international information broker like you has many ancient tomb clues at hand?”
When looking into Lin Mo’s background, Liu Limin found this point particularly baffling.
He was just a mover, where did he get all those antiques from? It was by selling those antiques that Lin Mo was able to amass his wealth, laying the foundation for the bigger things he did later on.
Otherwise, without money, he wouldn’t have been able to travel everywhere with his family.
And there wasn’t just this one dubious aspect of Lin Mo; his record of prescient insights was just too extensive to not raise suspicions.
One or two instances could be explained by coincidence, but when such occurrences accumulate, one can’t keep dismissing them as mere chance.
Lin Mo had anticipated that he would be questioned about this upon his return to the country.
When he activated the system before, he never thought that he would go through so much, let alone that his background would one day be scrutinized and investigated by countless people.
And these weren’t just ordinary people; they could harness terrifying social resources. If they wanted to investigate an ordinary person’s life, they could pinpoint exactly what that person ate for every meal of the day.
So Lin Mo never even considered hiding these matters.
He glanced at Wu Jingguo, then at Liu Limin, and then said leisurely, “If you need it, I indeed have some information about ancient tombs, and even the information about the Genghis Khan Mausoleum you’re looking for.”
It was rumored that after Genghis Khan died, his people buried him in the desert, and their national customs were quite unique. No matter how many things were hidden in the underground tomb, they would not leave any trace on the surface.
Therefore, after the Genghis Khan Mausoleum was built, a group of people purposely trampled the ground with camels until the land above the mausoleum was indistinguishable from the surrounding area.
It was because of this arrangement that no one had any clue about the exact location of the Genghis Khan Mausoleum, and no one had ever found it.
It was just the antiques rumored to be within the tomb that time and time again tantalized the nerves of the public and archaeologists.
It was said that when Genghis Khan led his troops to attack the Song Dynasty, the soldiers would often suffer from acclimatization disorders. A light case involved vomiting and diarrhea, and in severe cases, black blisters would form all over the body.
When these blisters burst, they would ooze green pus, severely affecting the morale and combat effectiveness of the Mongol army.
Later, it was Genghis Khan who used a very special tea to cure his subordinates of their acclimatization issues.
This information has been recorded many times in official histories, and in folklore, it was often mentioned, leading many archaeologists to believe that its credibility was very high.
Yet, up to this point, nobody knew the composition of this ancient tea. It was only known that Genghis Khan took it with him into his grave, and only by finding his tomb could this ancient tea see the light of day again.
And this was just an insignificant part of the numerous burial objects with Genghis Khan.
The Divine Eagle Bow, Yuan Dynasty Blue and White Porcelain, Golden Belt, Qiu Chuji’s “Elixir of Life Scripture”, the whip of Emperor Taizu of Yuan, and the top-level art and paintings accumulated during the more than 700 years of the Song Dynasty, a significant portion of them all were hidden within the Genghis Khan Mausoleum.
Locating the mausoleum would not only bring these precious antiques back into the light of day but it would also play a vital role in the restoration and investigation of the history of the Song Dynasty.
So after hearing Lin Mo’s statement, Liu Limin was not particularly excited, but Wu Jingguo’s eyes lit up.
The Song Dynasty was known for its flourishing arts and literati, and there were many great calligraphers and painters. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such esteem for the “Four Masters.”
The swords worn by these literati were also top-notch artworks, especially the legendary sword said to have been forged at the founding of Zhao Kuangyin’s reign, which could supposedly cut iron as easily as mud. Moreover, rumors claimed that the sword’s evil aura could be used to interrogate ghosts at night.
It was considered the number one artifact for protecting a household.
“Since you’re an Information Broker, then surely all information is meant to be profited from,” Liu Limin did not seem too moved and simply retorted calmly, “If I wanted to buy this information, what price would I have to pay?”
Lin Mo shook his head and answered directly, “No price is needed, nor do you need to do anything for me.”
“I can tell both of you clearly that, apart from the information on the Genghis Khan Mausoleum, I also have the world’s top-tier blueprints and designs for technology and weapons in my hands,” he said.
“I have the blueprints for nuclear-powered submarines, I have the design principles for nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and I can even produce lithography machines and CUP processors, ensuring that they’re the most advanced technology in the world.”
“These are my lifelines.”
At this…
Liu Limin and Wu Jingguo were both shocked.
They knew Lin Mo was an Information Broker and that it wasn’t strange for him to have many secret pieces of information in his hands.
After all, the Abyss Organization had more than once proven the accuracy of their information on the international market.
But they never imagined that Lin Mo would possess such important military and high-tech equipment blueprints or principles?
And by some odd coincidence, all of them happened to be the very technologies that Grand Xia was desperately lacking?
Liu Limin frowned and did not immediately suspect Lin Mo of bluffing or exaggerating. Instead, he asked in a puzzled tone, “Lin Mo, if you truly possess so many world-class high-tech blueprints as you say you do, then you should have even less reason to surrender yourself to the authorities.”
“With your abilities and what you’ve described, even establishing a country on your own shouldn’t be too difficult, right?”
