Lin Zhan looked at the indignant young Taoist and couldn't help but think to himself: It's over, the child has grown up and is no longer easy to fool. This time, I'll have to bleed a little.
"Brother-in-law, don't overthink it. How could I call you foolish? I've already handed over my own sister to you. If you were foolish, wouldn't I be even more so? How about this, I'll give you the 500 newly trained Lin family death warriors to lead."
The young Taoist pouted, his face filled with righteous indignation, and said:
"Big Brother, I'm sincere about Ya'er, and I'm loyal to you. Since joining forces, have I ever shirked my responsibilities? As long as it's your business, no matter how difficult, how dangerous, as long as you need it, haven't I always been the first to charge forward, your brother-in-law?"
"Expedition to Fusang, bloodying the imperial palace, slaughtering the Bone Demon race for Grandpa's revenge, annihilating the Ghost race, bloody battle with the Lizardmen, no matter what kind of dirty or tiring work you needed, Big Brother, just tell me which time your brother-in-law embarrassed you? With me like this, what else are you not satisfied with?"
Seeing Lin Zhan wanting to explain, the young Taoist didn't give the young master of the Lin family a chance to speak, and quickly continued:
"Alas, even so, Big Brother, you are still not satisfied with me. Then I can only return to the Celestial Master's Mansion. When I am sixteen, I will come to the Lin family to propose. As long as Ya'er is willing, I will marry her with great fanfare."
Looking at the young Taoist's heartbroken expression, the young master of the Lin family was unsure if this chubby fellow was genuinely sad or if he was unleashing his talent for deception, which had surpassed his master.
"Brother-in-law, don't be angry. All the mistakes are mine, Big Brother's fault. How about this, Big Brother will compensate you. I'll give you the Yin San smuggling route and the four black markets in Huaxia, just as pocket money for you and Ya'er."
It must be said that the young master of the Lin family was indeed worthy of being the number one figure in Huaxia, his generosity was evident.
The entire smuggling route in the Yin San special zone and the four black markets in Huaxia, with daily earnings equivalent to tens of thousands of Lord-level crystal cores, were all given to Zhang Haoming without a second thought. This showed how much he valued his brother-in-law.
Upon hearing this, the young Taoist leaped up from his chair and shouted angrily at Lin Zhan:
"What do you take me for? Am I that kind of person? If I cared so much about money, I wouldn't say anything else, but just take our Human Emperor ancestors out to rob, and we could also make a fortune. Don't forget, I consider you my own elder brother, my dearest friends and family!"
As the young Taoist shouted "dearest friends and family," the young master of the Lin family seemed to understand something instantly.
Immediately, he took out a Great Shang Tiger Tally and tentatively handed it to the young Taoist:
"Brother-in-law, since our relationship is so strong, Big Brother needs more money."
"This is a military dispatch tiger tally for 300,000 Great Shang Black Bird Army. Keep it for emergencies."
The young Taoist narrowed his eyes and quickly put away the tiger tally.
As if nothing had happened, he said to Lin Zhan, "Um... Big Brother, where were we just now? What do you think we should do next?"
Lin Zhan…
"How about we release the news about you and my sister?"
The young master of the Lin family said this casually, but his heart was bleeding.
That was the Black Bird Army of Great Shang. As the first heir of Great Shang, he could only mobilize 1 million. Now, this chubby fellow had "blackmailed" him out of the command of 300,000 Black Bird Army.
After Lin Zhan finished speaking, the young Taoist thought for a moment and said:
"Big Brother, I think this approach is feasible. It would be best to also release that the Lin family intends to choose another fiancé for Ya'er. This way, those who are up to something will definitely not be able to sit still. They will not give up such an opportunity and will definitely find a chance to approach the Lin family."
Lin Zhan nodded and said, "I'll have Da Zhuang and his brother handle this. After all, the An family is your sister-in-law's maternal uncle's family. It's most natural for them to know some inside information in advance, and it will also save my sister from causing trouble for you."
The young Taoist nodded and said, "Big Brother is wise."
"However, our most important task now is to get you appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Human Race's Three Armies. And this time, it's not just our Huaxia, but various special zones, families, and organizations from the entire Mother Planet must send people. We can also use this opportunity to see exactly who is human and who is a ghost."
The young Taoist told Lin Zhan his plan to test the waters.
Lin Zhan nodded and said, "Then let's do it. I'll transfer the Great Shang Ancestral Court Guard into the capital, and have the four ancestors of Xuan Shang and the five brothers of the Tie family guard the capital together. This time, no matter who causes trouble, we will eradicate them completely."
The young Taoist nodded in agreement, "That's right. Great-grandfather Wu also said the same. This morning, he took Grandpa Xiang, Second Grandpa, Third Grandpa, and all the Lin family's death warriors to the Federal Government. Uncle Long and Uncle Hu also mobilized the garrison forces to go there."
"It seems these old men have smelled something. Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken all of the Lin family's elites away. Damn it, who is guarding here now?"
Lin Zhan suddenly thought of his own safety and was quite worried.
The young Taoist chuckled and said:
"Big Brother, don't worry. We are very safe. The five brothers of the Tie family returned last night. They said they will be working for you from now on, specializing in protecting your safety."
"On the surface, Old Ancestor Zhao Yun is leading 800 Changshan disciples and Old Ancestor Dian Wei's 3,000 Great Halberdiers to protect Gaowu and your presence."
"Internally, we have the experts of our Lin family and Grandma Old Ancestor Daji. Don't worry, Big Brother. In terms of safety, only the Ancestral Court can be stronger than us."
Lin Zhan was relieved after knowing the security strength around him.
It wasn't that the young master of the Lin family was timid, but rather that people fear fame as much as pigs fear fatness.
The young master of the Lin family's name was ranked No. 1 on the bounty list of the Ten Thousand Races.
His ranking was even higher than Yu Longyan, Da Yu, and Shang Tang.
Because no one knew which scoundrel said it, Yu Longyan had Alzheimer's.
In the future, the burden of the human race would have to be carried by this cunning young man, Lin Zhan.
If they could kill him in advance, the war of the Ten Thousand Races would be much easier.
Thus, the young master of the Lin family inexplicably became the first place on the bounty list of the Ten Thousand Races.
"By the way, brother-in-law, what about the two brothers from the Siberia Special Zone? Are they still in Gaowu?"
Lin Zhan knew that Empress Catherine of Siberia had advanced to become an Emperor, so he suddenly thought of the brothers Andrei Ivanov and Viktor Ivanov.
He wanted to find the two of them to reminisce and get some information, as these two "polar bear" brothers would spill everything when they drank.
The young Taoist shook his head and said to Lin Zhan:
"Big Brother, stop thinking about getting information. These two brothers ran home while we were fighting the Lizardmen. Except for your cheap younger brother who is still here, the rest of them have all slipped away."
