Chapter 816 Invitation from the City Lord’s Mansion
Sincerity.
At their age, the two of them have never seen anything before, so they naturally know what sincerity is, but usually others express sincerity to them, but now it's the other way around.
But before life and death, it is not that simple to survive, you have to pay the price.
If Lin Chen just let them go, he would really make them feel guilty.
So Lin Chen wanted to be sincere, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
"My little friend, tell me the number," Zhou Kunyun said, the panic in his heart lessened a lot.
In fact, it's okay to ease the relationship like this. After all, Lin Chen is a monster. He beat the two of them violently at a young age. If it's like this now, will he do it again in the future?
I'm afraid it won't even take ten years to reach the realm of God.
The bright world has really given birth to many perverted monsters. It’s better not to compete with these old guys with any potential.
Can't compete.
"Senior, what are you saying? Why does it seem like I want to rob you? This is your sincerity, isn't it?" Lin Chen snorted softly.
Zhou Kunyun twitched the corner of his mouth, then took a deep breath and said, "According to what my friend said before, there will be 50 billion spiritual crystals, not even a penny less!"
Lin Chen chuckled and said, "How about you translate it, what does sincerity mean?"
Zhou Kunyun's face darkened slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Of course, that is compensation for Qiankun Jiuding. My little friend has been wronged this time, so I naturally need to express something."
"Then my Zhou family will produce another 50 billion spiritual crystals!"
"Senior said this, I am very disappointed. I have always been kind to others, senior really misunderstood me." Lin Chen sighed.
Zhou Kunyun's face turned completely dark.
This guy talks so much about evil, why not just give him a straight answer and tell him how much is sincerity?
But Ren Dao Zu, Zhou Kunyun was also furious and didn't want to pull him again and again. The main reason was that he was worried that Lin Chen's patience was limited, so he just stopped.
Lin Chen is so ruthless, it is really possible for him to die without giving up his money!
"One hundred billion, little friend, this is really my personal limit. I even need help from my clan. I really can't afford any more!" Zhou Kunyun was about to cry but had no tears.
Lin Chen was shocked.
One hundred billion spiritual crystals, this is just one of the powerful families in the super chamber of commerce like Gengu Pavilion, and it is not even the strongest one.
In such a family, one of the ancestors can actually spend a huge sum of 100 billion spiritual crystals!
You know, this is taking out the spiritual crystals directly, rather than using goods of equal value as a deduction!
You know, in the southwest region, even the leading forces in the top states only have 200 to 300 billion in liquidity.
That is the liquidity of the entire family!
It’s obvious that there is money in the Eastern Region!
"We are all friends. When we see each other, we see each other again," Lin Chen said with a chuckle.
Zhou Kunyun forced a smile.
Jin Xian was crying, Zhou Kunyun directly took out 150 billion, so he obviously couldn't escape.
But how can Xiyuan City be as good as the Zhou family? 150 billion is really unavailable.
Seeing this, Zhou Kunyun also sighed in his heart.
This incident started because of the Zhou family, and Xiyuan City was dragged into the water. If Jin Xian had to bear the price himself, then the two families would probably become enemies in the future.
He immediately said, "Brother Jin, I will ask the clan to allocate another 50 billion spiritual crystals."
Jin Xian's expression softened a little.
One hundred billion is still acceptable.
For a moment, both of them felt bitter in their hearts. Including the life-saving measures and many consumables they had used before, the total loss exceeded 350 billion!
The annual income of a top family has been directly wiped out. Even for them, it is a pain in the neck and their normal turnover will be affected to a certain extent.
What a loss!
It's all Zhou Nan's fault. If he doesn't have the ability to run Zhenbao Pavilion well, forget it. The family can only lose some money. Why use those dirty tricks against other chambers of commerce?
As a result, a evil star like Lin Chen was provoked!
After returning home, Zhou Nan's position as young master must be moved. To be honest, with his injuries, it will probably take him a year and a half to recover from his injuries.
"My friend, let's discuss something. After we go out, can we not disclose the result of this battle?" Zhou Kunyun said bravely.
If anyone knew that they were the losers, it would be a huge blow to both families!
"Please, little friend, please be merciful," Jin Xian also surrendered.
At this moment, around
The power of raging chaos has not subsided. The outside world does not know the situation inside, and it can indeed be concealed.
"The request of the two seniors is naturally reasonable and will cause me no loss. There is no reason not to agree to it," Lin Chen chuckled.
Just looking at this smile, both of their faces froze.
The more "reasonable" Lin Chen is, the more guilty he makes them feel.
"It's just that I haven't been good at lying since I was a child. People in my tribe warned me that you won't grow taller if you lie, so I'm in a bit of a dilemma," Lin Chen said tangledly.
After hearing this, the two of them no longer wanted to talk.
What the hell is it that you are not taller? How old are you and you are still taller!
"Okay, I'll just add another 10 billion!" Zhou Kunyun took a deep breath and said.
"Oh, you're too polite. Actually, I think I'm already this age, so my height should be determined, so there's no need to worry about it," Lin Chen sighed.
Jin Xian was short of money.
"Senior Jin, forget it, I have already felt your sincerity just now," Lin Chen waved his hand.
Jin Xian immediately breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hands to Lin Chen.
Naturally, there are problems in the City Lord's Mansion, but in fact, they just sit on the sidelines and do not stop the Zhou family. They themselves do not take action against the Qiankun Jiuding.
The price of 100 billion is almost the same, and it also allows the relationship to relax a bit.
After all, Qiankun Jiuding will still do business in Xiyuan City in the future. The current speed should be just right. As long as Lin Chen does not die, then Qiankun Jiuding can open its business safely in Xiyuan City!
The battle fluctuations finally dissipated, revealing three people.
Everyone is in a panic, and it seems that no one has the upper hand.
No one wins!
Sure enough, it is still too difficult to succeed in a one-on-one battle, but Lin Chen's record is enough to stand out from the rest!
As for the Zhou family and the City Lord's Mansion, they were able to recover a little bit of their dignity, and their defeat was not so ugly.
Although it’s quite ugly now.
"Lin Chen, you do have some abilities. I remember that you once killed demons for the human race. Today's matter ends here, but there is no way I can agree to the conditions you proposed!" Zhou Kunyun shouted.
"Lin Chen, please remember that even if you are as powerful as you, in Xiyuan City, you must abide by the rules of Xiyuan City. I will let you go this time, but next time, it will not be so simple!" Jin Xian also shouted.
"Huh!" Lin Chen snorted coldly and did not respond.
It seemed that he was not planning to fight again, and it sounded like the matter was over and Lin Chen did not need to be responsible for his previous actions. However, the two families did not agree to the conditions he proposed.
No one made the other party compromise.
That's fine. Lin Chen is from the Outer Territory after all. If a strong dragon can overwhelm local snakes, the people of the Eastern Territory will feel uncomfortable.
Those two families were always bullying, but this time they encountered a tough fight. The Zhenbao Pavilion was destroyed, and they lost face, so they paid the price.
This result is quite good.
As for Lin Chen, I think it's pretty good. The two old guys are good at acting. They don't blush and their hearts don't beat. They speak as if they are true.
Lin Chen just followed the trend.
After all, the result of the battle with the two Wen Shen Liu was slightly inferior, but the impact caused by him defeating the two was completely different.
Lin Chen also hopes that others will have a lower estimate of him, so as not to encounter too much resistance in the future.
In this way, all three families are quite satisfied, and it won't be the worst outcome.
After Zhou Kunyun returned, he dug out the seriously injured Zhou Nan and left Xiyuan City directly.
Jin Xian, on the other hand, disappeared in a flash, apparently returning to the depths of the city lord's palace and no longer interfering with matters outside.
The remaining matters are left to the city lord to resolve.
The crowd dispersed, but today's talk has been rich. This matter will also spread, and the reputation of the ruthless man will be greatly popularized in the Eastern Region.
It's just that whether it is good or bad is unknown.
"City Lord, is it inappropriate to leave this place empty?" Lin Chen asked, with the ruins of the Treasure Pavilion in front of him.
Jin Liuyi laughed in his heart, but on his face he could only follow the words, "This is a downtown area, and every inch of land is valuable, so of course it cannot be left empty."
"That's right. A good building was destroyed like this. I feel sad when I see it. It's such a pity. This is a huge waste!" Lin Chen said.
"Isn't it you who ruined it?" Jin Liuyi
I cursed in my heart.
"Does Mr. Lin have any good ideas?" Jin Liuyi asked with a smile.
"I am a person who despises this kind of waste the most. In this way, I will spend some money to build a building at my own expense. What do the city officials think?" Lin Chen said.
"The money was stolen from us too!" Jin Liuyi cursed again in his heart.
"Master Lin, this is a good idea!" Jin Liuyi nodded repeatedly.
"City Lord, you see, I paid for the building myself, so the land rent is waived. After all, I have also contributed to beautifying the city, don't you think so?" Lin Chen said.
"..."
"What Mr. Lin said is absolutely true. If everyone in Xiyuan City is as public-minded as Mr. Lin, then Xiyuan City will definitely be on a higher level!" Jin Liuyi laughed.
"It's too much praise! It's too much praise!" Lin Chen waved his hands repeatedly.
In this way, by the way, the construction of the building was also entrusted to Jin Liuyi, and when the building was completed, this was the new Eastern Branch of Qiankun Jiuding!
The low-end market in Xiyuan City has just been suppressed by Zhenbao Pavilion. Qiankun Jiuding takes over at this time and inherits Zhenbao Pavilion's market. It will be a good start!
The business of Qiankun Jiuding will also start from this point and radiate out in all directions!
Of course, Lin Chen is just laying a good foundation. As for whether it can become bigger and stronger, that is a matter for shopkeeper Hu and Shuangxue.
I believe they have such ability!
And 300 billion will become their greatest confidence to fiercely compete for the market!
After the matter was over, everyone went home, but then Lin Chen received an invitation from Jin Liuyi to host a banquet at the city lord's mansion.
I don’t know if it’s the Hongmen Banquet.
However, Lin Chen did not refuse.
After explaining the matter to Shopkeeper Hu and others, Lin Chen set off for the City Lord's Mansion. If the other party had no ill intentions, then Lin Chen felt that he could inquire further about the statue.
After all, this was his first goal when he came to the Eastern Region.
It's night, the moon and stars are sparse, Saiyuan City is brightly lit, and everywhere is bustling!
Xiyuan City is the most lively at night, with people coming and going everywhere, and there are almost no empty shops.
It’s so prosperous that it’s hard to live without money!
Lin Chen walked all the way to the City Lord's Mansion. This mansion was very huge, well-built, and the landscape courtyard must have been measured by a master, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
When Lin Chen arrived, people from the Jin family immediately came to greet him.
"My Jin Shuang, I have heard about Brother Lin for a long time. It really brings glory to my Jin family to be honored by Brother Lin!" Jin Shuang clasped his fists in salute and said with a smile.
His attitude was very low-key and sincere, and he didn't have the feeling of being a follower of others.
He is Jin Liuyi's son and the future helmsman of the Jin family. He is very powerful. He has already reached the halfway point of asking God. His words and demeanor are far superior to that of Zhou Nan.
It should be a character in the future.
Of course, in front of Lin Chen, he was nothing.
"Brother Jin, you're welcome," Lin Chen returned the favor with a smile.
"Brother Lin, please come in. My father and several uncles from the clan are waiting for you." Jin Shuang chuckled and led Lin Chen to the banquet room.
On the road, people looked here from time to time and chattered, but they did not dare to come close.
Lin Chen's spiritual sense is keen and he can naturally hear clearly.
Most of them were curious about Lin Chen, but there were also some inappropriate voices and hostility towards Lin Chen.
Lin Chen didn't care about this. There were too many people who were hostile to him, not least these few, and they could only be hostile. If he really stood in front of Lin Chen, he would be regarded as the best among people if he could hold on without kneeling.
!
No need to pay attention to it at all.
"Brother Lin, it's funny. The Jin family is a big family with many people and different visions. No need to pay attention to it," Jin Shuang said apologetically. He could naturally hear those voices.
Lin Chen was a little surprised that Jin Shuang could directly mention this matter and say sorry on the table. Instead, he glanced at Jin Shuang.
"You should have heard about my reputation. Their hostility is nothing." Lin Chen smiled.
Jin Shuang twitched his lips when he thought of those negative rumors about Lin Chen. Indeed, those were really outrageous.
"But Brother Lin's reputation has been both criticized and praised, and the damage is indeed a bit outrageous, but the reputation is also quite amazing." Jin Shuang said with a smile, but it was a bitter smile.
Lin Chen is a little weird, I wonder where Jin Shuang is
Here are these thoughts.
"Brother Ruthless is here, isn't he? Where is he? I am the leader of the Eastern Region Branch of Brother Ruthless's backup sister group. Let me meet Brother Ruthless quickly!"
Just as he was talking, there was a sound like a silver bell, and then a golden light rushed from far to near.
Jin Shuang frowned immediately, sighed, stepped forward, and picked up the golden light.
She is a very beautiful girl, extremely cute. She looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. She is petite, but she is exquisite and graceful.
At this moment, he was grabbed by the collar and waving with his hands and feet, but he couldn't reach anywhere.
"Brother, what are you doing? Let me go. On behalf of all the girls in my Eastern Region, I want to give my ruthless brother a passionate kiss!" Jin Jinhan shouted dissatisfied.
That's the ruthless brother. Do you understand the value of the ruthless brother?
Jin Shuang had the urge to cover his face. How could Jin Zihan say such things in public? He felt really embarrassed to have a sister like this. However, he was his own sister, so he couldn't give her a beating.
He immediately shouted and said seriously, "Zihan, don't be ridiculous. Brother Lin is a distinguished guest invited by his father. You look like this and you are not afraid of being laughed at!"
Jin Zihan snorted and said, "You're a distinguished guest. That's nice to say. But it turned out that during the day, he didn't even know how powerful the ruthless brother was, so he actually let the second grandpa attack him. How about it? I'm feeling defeated!"
"Hmph, don't think I don't know. Brother Ruthless is so strong, how can there be a tie? Second Grandpa was definitely beaten up by Brother Ruthless!"
"Jin Zihan, what nonsense are you talking about! How unbecoming! Are you trying to disgrace the Jin family in front of our guests? Believe it or not, I will send you to the solitary room right now and put you in solitary confinement!" Jin Shuang said angrily, indeed
Is angry.
Are you from the Jin family? Are you so happy that the second grandfather was defeated?
"Brother, don't be angry. It's not shameful to lose to the ruthless brother." Jin Jinhan didn't realize it at all. Instead, he said with a tiger face, "You clearly know how much I admire the ruthless brother, but you didn't tell me ruthless brother."
Brother is here, it’s really too much!”
The veins on Jin Shuang's forehead trembled for a while, and he really wanted to suppress Jin Jinhan!
"Brother Jin, don't be angry. Isn't your sister very cute?" Lin Chen laughed.
Jin Shuang laughed awkwardly, but had no choice but to let go of Jin Zihan.
Jin Jinhan jumped in front of Lin Chen, his big eyes flashing, and then he covered his mouth and jumped happily, "Brother Ruthless, you are more handsome than what you see in the video!"
"Excessive praise," Lin Chen laughed.
Even Lin Chen would be proud to be praised by such a little beauty.
"Brother Ruthless, can I ask you a question?" Jin Jinhan blinked his big eyes and begged.
"You can just ask," Lin Chen waved his hand.
"Brother Ruthless, when you were raped by Sister Su Yi, what were you thinking? Are you happy or sad? Have you ever thought about forcing yourself back?" Jin Jinhan's pretty face turned red, but she still wanted to know and was very excited.
Lin Chen's smile suddenly froze on his face, and then he looked at Jin Shuang expressionlessly, "Brother Jin, take her to solitary confinement."
Jin Shuang almost laughed out loud. Jin Zihan's critical attack was probably going to give Lin Chen a lot of pain.
So you see, don’t think this little girl is very cute, she is actually a little devil!
Jin Shuang took Jin Zihan aside and scolded her seriously to stop messing around. Only then did Jin Zihan give up.
However, he still followed step by step, looking at Lin Chen, covering his face and smiling happily, and making gasping sounds from time to time.
Lin Chen sighed in his heart. He no longer felt as happy as before. This feeling was really heavy!
The leader of the Eastern Region branch of the support sister group is so scary!
It’s much scarier than those big enemies!
Lin Chen did not dare to look at her, and followed Jin Shuang quickly to the banquet living room. The top brass of the Jin family had been waiting for a long time. Jin Liuyi came up first and invited Lin Chen to sit down.
I won’t go into details about some banquet etiquette, etc. Lin Chen just complied with them and handled them appropriately.
But here, Jin Jinhan did not dare to be too presumptuous. He sat like a good girl throughout the whole process and could not move around on the stool, which was quite aggrieved.
Lin Chen relaxed a little more.
So, the atmosphere was good, and after three drinks, we finally came to the main topic.
"My little friend is new to the Eastern Region, have you ever heard of the ancient mines in the early Yuan Dynasty?" Jin Liuyi drank a glass of wine and asked with a smile.
