Chapter 477: The Wang Family’s Attitude
Wu Yong felt a surge of excitement. The entire Kanyue City is ours?
Wu Yong knew Lin Tian was referring to Kanyue City at night. Even Du Dahai wouldn’t dare say that, but Lin Tian did.
Pang Yu and Wu Yong didn’t think Lin Tian was bragging, because too many miracles had happened with him.
Then, Lin Tian recounted the movements on Xu Ning’an’s side to the two of them.
Ultimately, it was the mischievous Wu Yong who came up with an idea, suggesting they gather a few brothers to stash some ’good stuff’ at Du Dahai’s house at night. Stuff that could make Du Dahai die quicker.
The three of them talked for quite a while, mostly about the future direction of the Black Gold Security Company.
Just as Lin Tian had said to Xu Ning’an before. They weren’t members of the Dark Wound Association; they just wanted to be security guards. Because only this way could their faction survive in the long term.
Du Dahai’s malicious style was a mere path to destruction.
Of course, they also needed to establish their own intelligence network. By then, any slight change in Kanyue City would be under their control.
To achieve this plan, Pang Yu was crucial. He was an old subordinate of Ye Feng, and his skills were not much weaker than a reconnaissance soldier. As long as they expanded the members, this goal could be quickly achieved.
Lin Tian’s proposal received unanimous approval from the two. Finally, Lin Tian set a small goal for Wu Yong.
"Yongzi, I think that any members we recruit in the future, whether they’re ex-soldiers or not, should undergo special training. Just train them like in the military, with Tian Ming as the instructor. You need to train along as well," Lin Tian said.
Wu Yong’s eyes widened, and he quickly shook his head, "No way, no way, no way, you’re letting Tian Ming train me? Won’t he kill me? Tian, you can’t be so cruel."
Lin Tian cursed with a helpless smile, "As their leader, you need some skills to gain respect, right? I think Tian Ming should give you special attention."
Wu Yong put on a long face, knowing Lin Tian’s decision couldn’t be changed, and could only raise his head and give a long sigh.
"Don’t worry, I have many herbal concoctions here. I’ll write a prescription for you two to take back. Follow the steps to brew into a potion, and then soak in it daily. It will enhance blood circulation and physical fitness, helping you quickly adapt to Tian Ming’s high-intensity training. Remember, this formula needs to be kept secret and not leaked."
Lin Tian didn’t intend to pass the cultivation method from the "Tyrant Emperor’s Record" to Wu Yong, as it required starting from a young age, and at Wu Yong’s age, it was unlikely to yield any significant results.
It was better to let him soak in the potion for increased physical strength.
Pang Yu pointed to himself and asked, "Tian, can I soak in that potion too?"
Lin Tian nodded, "Of course, now that you’re my brother, you can surely have it."
Pang Yu said nothing further, but instead cast a grateful glance towards Lin Tian.
In Pang Yu’s eyes, Lin Tian was a man of higher skill than Ye Feng. Whatever he offered was undoubtedly extraordinary, devoid of boasting.
Pang Yu was a thief, and discerning the value of an item was his basic skill.
If the prescription had the effects Lin Tian claimed, it would be worth a significant amount. Such a gift immediately after joining Lin Tian’s faction showed trust in him.
Lin Tian could not have imagined that casually giving away a prescription would earn Pang Yu’s loyalty. To Lin Tian, these prescriptions were his least valuable items, having hundreds or even thousands of them.
However, if leaked to the enemy and used extensively, it would indeed cause Wu Yong some trouble.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Bai Shishi and Ruyan walked in again.
Seeing them, Wu Yong stood up, followed by Pang Yu.
Bai Shishi quickly gestured dismissively, "No need to be formal, we’re all among friends. Sit down."
The four sat at the ends of the sofa, and Bai Shishi smiled, "I saw so many people standing by the door, I knew your girlfriend and mother-in-law had left."
Lin Tian gave a wry smile and was about to speak when Ruyan coldly snorted, "Heartless fellow."
"Mei, no, Ruyan, how am I heartless?" Lin Tian asked, feeling somewhat wronged.
Ruyan, agitated, was about to say something when her mouth was covered by Bai Shishi, "Don’t say anything rash."
Ruyan gave a soft snort, nodded to indicate she would remain silent, and Bai Shishi released her hand.
Lin Tian gave an awkward laugh and shifted the topic, "How are Xiaoliu and the others recovering?"
"They’re recovering much slower than you, but they’re not seriously injured. I’ve hired caretakers for them, but you don’t need one. So many pretty girls are throwing themselves at you."
Bai Shishi’s tone carried a hint of jealousy. Before anyone else could speak, she quickly added, "Alright, let’s discuss other matters later. Actually, we came to talk to you about something today."
Lin Tian sat up straight, listening attentively.
"This morning, my dad and I, along with some evidence, met with several principal figures of the Wang Family. Guess what happened?" Bai Shishi asked with a smile.
Lin Tian urged eagerly, "Stop keeping us in suspense and tell us quickly."
Wu Yong and Pang Yu listened intently with their ears perked up.
Bai Shishi’s smile faded, and she said somewhat dejectedly, "Negotiations broke down."
Lin Tian’s eyes widened in disbelief, "What? With so much evidence, they still broke down? What is the Wang Family planning?"
"No idea. They said they’d talk again in a few days. This matter couldn’t be decided by them," Ruyan said.
"Aren’t they afraid of this evidence reaching the police?"
"The principal figures in the Wang Family seem unable to make decisions. They hesitated a lot. Maybe there’s someone behind them, or they need to discuss it," Ruyan explained.
Lin Tian was somewhat displeased, "What the hell are they discussing? There’s nothing to negotiate."
"That’s exactly what I said, but they acted confident, saying to either talk in a few days or face mutual destruction," Bai Shishi said.
Lin Tian thought the Wang Family were downright crazy. This was no game; it was about the survival of two big families. The Bai Family had no grudges against them, so why go this far?
Bai Shishi added, "They also mentioned bringing their eldest son for negotiations in a few days. Otherwise, there’s nothing to talk about, even if the Wang Family falls, other families will target us. I’ve checked, their eldest son is Wang Sicong, but I have no idea where he is."
Seeing Bai Shishi’s troubled expression, Lin Tian said, "That eldest son is in my custody."
"What? In your custody?"
Then, Lin Tian explained the enmity between Wang Sicong and himself.
Bai Shishi fretted, "But why do I feel there’s a major plot behind the Wang Family? I always felt they aren’t afraid of the evidence we hold."
