042 The temptation from the city lord
After Luo Congwen agreed, Song Qing and Zhu Huan agreed without hesitation.
At first.
Luo Congwen sent Lin Bai and gave him two hundred taels casually. Those who could hang out with him would naturally have similar wealth. To them, five thousand taels was not a big sum of money.
What they were interested in was Lin Bai, and the interesting chef Fanzhan. There were many people who knew how to do business, but few of them came up with new ideas like Lin Bai.
What's more, Lin Bai also tinkered with a book called "Tian Can Ji". If you invest in him, you will definitely make money without losing money.
Lin Bai kept saying that he was a businessman, but there was nothing that a businessman would dare to do...
Several noble men believe in their own vision.
…
The happy joining of the three people was within Lin Bai's expectation.
Moreover, what he values is not money, but the wealth and connections behind these people.
In any world, you can never succeed alone.
The game may be released to public beta at any time.
In this world that may lead to chaos at any time, all NPCs are his natural allies.
Therefore, he would not only carefully contact the blacksmiths and carpenters at the bottom of society, but also carefully manage the relationship with Luo Congwen and other powerful children.
Lin Bai quickly integrated into this strange world through various methods.
In front of disorderly players, NPCs all over the world should unite and become a family.
…
Lin Bai smiled: "Three young gentlemen..."
"Brother Lin, calling me Young Master seems awkward, just call me by my name." Song Qing had completely recovered and waved her hand.
"Old Song is right. Once we buy shares, we will become partners." Luo Congwen chuckled, "Speaking of which, this is my first time doing business!"
"Find me a pair of pants to change into first, and then we'll talk about the rest." Zhu Huan glanced at them, gritted his teeth and threatened, "Also, no one is allowed to tell anyone what happened today."
Everyone looked at each other and smiled.
Song Jinnan floated up to Zhu Huan and said respectfully: "Master Zhu, follow me upstairs."
A little while.
After Zhu Huan had tidied up and went downstairs again, Lin Bai said seriously: "Brothers, the nightclub is just starting tonight. There are many people outside waiting to see our jokes. I will ask you to go out and show your face later to recruit for the shop.
Some business.”
"It should be." Luo Congwen now obeyed Lin Baiyan's advice.
"I will let them have an unforgettable night. Isn't it better to have fun alone than to have fun together?" A cruel look flashed across Zhu Huan's face, "Brother Lin, have you prepared enough pants?"
"Enough." Lin Bai nodded affirmatively.
"That's good." Zhu Huan snorted and looked at Song Jinnan and others, "I'll go out to collect customers in a while. You three, please work hard and don't end it easily. Remember your accusations and let the customers spend their money."
It’s worth it…”
Song Jinnan nodded three times and turned his admiring eyes to Lin Bai. "Good guy, before he could recover, he was thinking of tricking others. His boss has such a detailed grasp of people's hearts."
"Three brothers, I'm afraid you have to cooperate with Lao Song's family to handle the Master of Cooking Fanzhan tonight, so I won't be able to accompany you here." Lin Bai smiled and said, "You have gone through it once, and you know the process."
"Brother Lin, what's wrong?" Luo Congwen asked.
"It's true that something happened. Speaking of which, I should have stayed and had a drink with my brothers and discussed the future of the God of Cooking nightclub. After all, the old Song family's method of scaring people is too simple. Everyone has been there a few times, so that's it.
I feel that it is boring. I will discuss more scripts and let my career continue to flourish." Lin Bai said, "But the secret guards of the City Lord's Mansion just came to the door and asked me to go to the City Lord's Mansion."
"Secret guard?" Luo Congwen frowned.
"Brother Luo didn't go out today, so he must not know what happened!" Song Qing sneered and said, "The secret guard of the City Lord's Mansion was originally a secret matter, only spread among a few big families, but today a group of
People went to the city lord's palace and clamored to apply for secret guards. The good secret guards were forced to become open guards by these guys, and everyone knew about it. I don't know who is stumbling on the city lord behind?"
He sent a secret guard to reveal his identity and come directly to the door. Haven't you guessed who was behind it? Lin Bai glanced sideways at Song Qing, slandering, and his brain was a little lacking.
"Brother Lin, what do the secret guards want from you?" Luo Congwen asked.
"Perhaps I have made too much noise in the past two days!" Lin Bai said, "Although I have some skills, the city lord is an official official after all. Maybe he wants to beat me..."
"Hmph." Luo Congwen snorted coldly, "Brother Lin, take care of it yourself. If the city lord gives you trouble, just mention the names of our families. In Jiamu City, he can't cover the sky with one hand."
This is why I asked you to invest in me!
Not enough force.
Make connections!
More friends means more ways to survive!
Lin Bai smiled, stood up, clasped his fists and said: "The next nightclub business will have to be troubled by several brothers. When I come back from the city lord's mansion, we will talk in detail about the development of Chef God Rice..."
Several people stood up and returned the greeting.
Lin Bai warned Song Jinnan, then stood up and walked out the door.
Everyone follows.
outside the door.
Secret guard Zhou Jiang looked at Luo Congwen and others who had been crying for their father and mother just now and walked out with Lin Bai chatting and laughing. His breath was held for a moment. After being tortured like this and still so close, Lin Bai gave up.
What kind of ecstasy did they drink?
"Are you the secret guard of the City Lord's Mansion?" Luo Congwen's eyes fell on Zhou Jiang and asked, "Do you have a warrant and a badge?"
Zhou Jiang glanced at Luo Congwen and remained silent.
"Brother Luo, don't make things difficult for this secret guard brother." Lin Bai smiled and came to the rescue for Zhou Jiang, "The secret guard, as the name suggests, performs some shady tasks. If he unfortunately dies during the mission, his body will be damaged.
With a token, wouldn't everything be revealed? You are innocent, nameless, and you can only be clean after death. Even if you really wear a badge, it is someone else's badge. Brother secret guard, what I said is right.
Bar?"
[Resentment from Zhou Jiang; +1]
Zhou Jiang glared at Lin Bai and snorted secretly. It sounded like he was explaining to himself, but damn, it was really uncomfortable to listen to!
He looked at Lin Bai coldly: "Shop Manager Lin, it's time for us to set off. We've been delayed a lot of time. The city lord should be anxious."
"Okay, let's go!" Lin Bai nodded with a smile.
"Master, I'll go with you." [Deng Libuduo] suddenly walked out.
Lin Bai said: "No need. Xiao Deng, you stay with Mr. Luo and the others to take care of the shop. I forgot to tell you that Mr. Luo and the others are shareholders of our shop just like Taoist Master Qingfeng. You must respect them as much as you respect me."
, there are some things they don’t know about, please cooperate with them.”
[Resentment from Deng Libuduo; +1]
[Deng Libuduo] looked at Lin Bai sadly: "Master, I still want to go to the City Lord's Mansion with you to see the world."
at this time.
[Deng Libuduo] felt a little broken inside.
For two days, he barely left this small shop.
If he continues like this and plays a stupid game, he will really become a waiter. His life is not as exciting as the shopkeeper. Isn't he the real protagonist?
"Xiao Deng, only by respecting your master can you be righteous." Lin Bai shook his head and looked at [Deng Libuduo] with soft eyes, "Don't be willful, stay here to work hard, I am very optimistic about you."
Respect your mother!
[Deng Libuduo] roared in his heart and stepped aside sadly: "Yes, master."
this moment.
He truly felt that he was completely constrained by this bullshit gentleman's virtues.
Watching Lin Bai and the secret guards of the City Lord's Mansion approaching the darkness, [Deng Li Buduo] even felt a hint of regret. It would have been better if he had not met Lin Bai in the blacksmith shop. Maybe he would be here now.
Still happily blacksmithing!
…
The night is already dark.
The crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and you can vaguely see the road.
Perhaps the secret guard was used to living in darkness. He did not light a lantern, but just followed Lin Bai step by step without saying much.
Go to a secluded place.
A slight wind sound suddenly reached Lin Bai's ears.
well!
Lin Bai secretly sighed and turned around. His right palm had already come out from his armpit, and he used the "Dragon Swinging Hair". He saw half of the dragon's claw fly out from his palm and hit Zhou Jiang's Dantian hard.
Knocked him away.
Zhou Jiang hit the wall, and blood spurted out in large mouthfuls. With a bang, the dagger he used for sneak attacks fell to the ground.
Lin Bai frowned: "Tell me, why did the city lord want to kill me?"
Zhou Jiang's physique was obviously not as good as that of Qingfeng Laodao. He had lost the ability to move after being hit in the palm. He collapsed on the ground and vomited blood again: "How did you find out?"
"First, he shouldn't have sent secret guards; second, you are too calm. I deliberately delayed it for so long and you didn't even urge me." Lin Bai said, "It's too abnormal."
"Ha!" Zhou Jiang vomited another mouthful of blood and said with a bitter smile, "Shopkeeper Lin is really smart. You should go directly to the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord really wants to see you."
"You haven't told me yet, why did you want to kill me?" Lin Bai asked calmly.
"The city lord said, if you defeat me, you can go to see him. If I kill you, you can go to see him, either way is fine." Zhou Jiang said while vomiting blood.
Dry!
The city lord regards me as a player!
