Chapter 1387 The Existence of the Top Five Think Tanks

Soon, the meeting of the Jisheng lineage was finalized.

Smith replaced Joseph and went to the Sky Island Chain to meet with Wayne Harus.

Try to adjust Hal's position back at the lowest cost...

Of course.

Before that, they were still mentally prepared.

After all.

If you want to find someone to do something, you must show sincerity.

As for what sincerity is, it depends on what the other person wants!

Otherwise, giving things randomly will be counterproductive.

Just like a guy in the empire before, it was like this.

When he asked someone to do something, he didn't even know what the other person liked, and he just gave some things he thought were valuable.

In the end, not only did he fail to get the job done, but he also had a bad relationship with others...

The past is a lesson for the future!

Because the matter needed to be handled urgently.

Smith did not waste time. After finalizing the general details of the meeting with other members, he set off.

Joseph, as the open representative of the Jisheng lineage, did not come forward to send Smith off.

After all, they are now in the headquarters.

There are countless spies around.

If the scene of sending Smith was seen by those spies.

They will definitely spread the news to the ears of the hostile forces.

At that time.

After learning the news, these hostile forces will definitely add insult to injury!

Although I don’t know what method they will take, at least Smith’s meeting with Wayne Harus will not be so smooth!

In order to prevent this from happening.

Joseph had to hide behind the scenes.

Of course.

Just in case.

In addition to Smith, there are two other members of the Jisheng lineage who went this time.

These two members usually don’t show their strength.

But they all have some subordinates with superb martial arts.

Arranging these two to follow Smith is purely to protect Smith’s personal safety.

The hostile forces in the empire will not carry out assassinations so openly.

But the situation of the rabbit army is not clear...

The enemy has been fighting guerrilla warfare these days, shooting here and there!

What if Smith is unlucky and encounters them.

That would be Barbie Q.

So.

A certain security guarantee must be done.

...

It takes several hours to get from the headquarters of the empire to the current location of the sky island chain.

Smith stood on the edge of the sky island, thinking about something, holding a cane inlaid with goblin crystals.

After a while.

A young-looking man walked to Smith's side.

He whispered: "Mr. Smith, it's windy outside, go back to the house and rest."

Smith is the think tank of their entire Jisheng lineage.

There must not be any loss.

If Hal was replaced at the front of the sky island chain, it would be like cutting off an arm of the Jisheng lineage.

Then if Smith had a problem, the Jisheng lineage would be headless!

Before coming out.

Joseph and others focused on talking to the two members who came out with Smith.

The two were not fools, and naturally knew the importance of Smith to the entire Jisheng lineage.

So.

Seeing Smith standing on the edge of the sky island and blowing the wind, they could not help but frown.

The one who was persuading now was a person with a more impatient temper.

If it were another person, he would probably weigh it before speaking.

He would not be as reckless as this young man.

Smith was pulled back by his voice.

Smith took a breath first, and then looked at the young man with a smile.

"I remember your name is Houston, right?"

The young man was slightly stunned, and then nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Smith."

Smith touched his chin, which was very smooth and had no stubble.

His behavior was completely a habit, and there was no deep meaning.

But in the eyes of the young Houston, it shocked Houston.

Although he had joined the Jisheng lineage not long ago, he was familiar with the legend of Smith.

Why can the Jisheng lineage, which is so small, become a member of the Senate?

Compared with the senators with similar rankings, the size of Jisheng's lineage can be said to be very small.

It is less than half of theirs.

So here comes the question.

With such a small number of people, how can Jisheng's lineage sit firmly on the high platform?

The answer is that in addition to Joseph, a senator who can win people's hearts, Jisheng's lineage also has a think tank with extraordinary wisdom!

Smith!

If.

The entire Senate and the Elders' Council's forces take out their think tanks for ranking, Smith can be firmly in the top five!

You know.

Although the think tanks are rare, the forces in the Elders' Council and the Senate are complex.

If added together, it's a lot.

And the reason why Smith is so important in the hearts of these people.

It is because Smith planned two events at the beginning of the founding of the empire!

Two large forces were eliminated without bloodshed!

According to Smith himself, he borrowed the military tactics of the East and used a trick of combining vertical and horizontal forces...

It sounds understated.

But the thrill of it can be seen!

There are even many think tanks who put themselves in the situation based on Smith's description.

But they found that they could not break the situation at all!

They also understand the Eastern military tactics!

But understanding and applying are two different things!

Just like many people, they know some great principles.

But so what?

Can knowing and doing be compared?

It is precisely because of this that Smith was unanimously recognized by the Senate and the Elders as being at least in the top five think tanks.

Moreover.

Smith would receive olive branches from other forces from time to time...

Wanting to invite him to join.

However.

All were rejected by Smith.

Of course.

It is not that the olive branches given by those people are too "weak".

On the contrary, the treatment they gave was extremely good!

Even so good that even Joseph would be tempted.

But even so, he was still rejected by Smith.

At first, Joseph and other members of the Jisheng lineage were still worried.

Fearing that Smith would be poached.

But later, as Smith continued to refuse.

Their hearts were put back in their stomachs.

Until now.

For such recruitment news, they have become commonplace.

As for why Smith refused, no one knew.

It wasn't that Joseph and the others didn't want to ask.

It was that they didn't know how to ask about this kind of thing.

Hinting would be somewhat disrespectful.

Saying it out loud... would be even more disrespectful.

It's always like this, so it's better not to mention it...

Houston withdrew his thoughts.

His expression became cautious.

Touching the chin...

It is said that Mr. Smith would only do this when he was cheating someone!

He just called his name.

Could it be that he wanted to...

Hiss——!

Houston took a breath.
