The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 937
âAmazing! Not only are you incredibly skillful and strong, but youâre also proficient with medicine! My admiration for you now knows no bounds!â said Whistler respectfully In response, Gerald only shook his head in silence.
After exchanging glances with his men for a while, Whistler then added, âI do wonder if thereâs anything my men and I could do for you in future, sir? Since you saved our lives, weâre more than willing to follow you around and do whatever we can for you!â
He didnât just say that to please Gerald either. Their gratitude was genuine. After all, anyone would feel the same way after being saved from such a tight situation. The fact that Gerald was aware of how much Whistler and his men valued their brotherhood only served to make their proposal all the more meaningful.
In addition, itâs not like they had anywhere else to go now. They all knew that by following this powerful young man, a bright future wasnât completely out of the question anymore.
âFollow me around? Sorry to disappoint, but Iâll be looking for a place to stay in, in the Triangle District myself. After all, I donât exactly have a place to return to anymore!â replied Gerald with a bitter smile.
âYou donât have anywhere to go to as well, sir? Well thatâs perfect then! All of us here are relatively familiar with the Triangle District, so we could help you navigate around the area, sir! Do consider taking us in!â said Whistler.
Hearing that, Gerald thought to himself for a moment.
He was well aware that what he currently lacked most was manpower. If he was to go against Kort, he would eventually need to find help anyway since there was no way he was going to be able to take that b*stard down alone.
From what he had earlier seen, Whistler and his men also had excellent foundations as well as a strong sense of loyalty. If he trained these men like how Finnley had trained him before, then they would no doubt be able to at least be at Quentin and Treyâs level in the future.
âYouâre looking too highly of me if youâre asking me to take you in. After all, Iâm a vagabond as well.
However, since you suggested it, I accept. Thanks for having me,â replied Gerald with a smile.
âThis is simply too perfect then, sir!â shouted Whistler and his men, overjoyed.
As they laughed merrily, roars of thunder slowly grew louder and more frequent as dark clouds filled the sky again. Soon after, the heavy downpour resumed.
It was honestly a rare opportunity for the men to enjoy such peace of mind as they stared out at the rain from inside the cave.
Eventually, Whistler said, âIf weâre going to be working together from now on, we simply canât continue living like this, sir! If we want to survive in the Triangle District, then weâll have to build our own industry and power!â
Gerald simply nodded in agreement. After all, it would definitely not be a cakewalk to survive in the Triangle District when a cave was currently their only source of shelter!
âSince you suggested it, do you have any good ideas of where to start?â asked Gerald as he turned to look at Whistler.
âWell, weâll definitely be avoiding Heavenly City, at least for now. While itâs the largest city in the Triangle District with a booming economy and their own ways of conducting themselves in society, there are simply too many forces going against each other there. Trying to establish a footing there with our current situation would definitely be extremely complicated and chaotic!â
âHowever, a small town that goes by the name of Talgo town lies about ten kilometers away from that city. While not as prosperous as Heavenly City, the economy there isnât too bad for a small town. I suggest building our name there, sir! While I currently only have a little money left, I believe that itâs still enough to start a small business there!â explained Whistler.
Gerald simply waved a hand before saying, âThereâs no need to start small. I currently have enough with me to buy a few large industries. Speaking of which, whatâs the main industry in Talgo town?â
âIf I remember correctly, theyâre most well-known for their medicinal herb and material-processing factory! However, the factory itself is rather large, so itâll definitely cost quite a bit to buy it!â replied Whistler.
âA medicinal factory you say?â said Gerald, his interest clearly piqued.
âWhile Iâm still in search of the Ginseng King, Iâll still need other medicinal herbs and materials to train myself⦠By buying the medicinal factory, things will be much more convenient for me!â Gerald thought to himself.
âAlright, as soon as the rain stops, letâs rush over so that I can borrow the money we need to buy the factory!â announced Gerald.
It was two days later in a small hotel located in Talgo town when Whistler pushed a roomâs door open and said, âItâs done, sir!â
Following him, were two men by the name of Stanley and Wyham.
