But forget it, whether you go together or not, it makes no difference to yourself......

/

Thinking of this, Lin Yun shook his head, and together with William Merlin, he stepped on the third floor of this stone tower, the ground was paved with white moon stones, which looked smooth and neat, and there were some oil paintings hanging on the walls on both sides......

"Tuk Tuk ......"

William Merlin knocked lightly on the study door, and then heard an old voice coming from inside: "Come in." ”

The study is very large, neat seven or eight rows of bookshelves, fan-shaped enveloping the study, the flame of the fireplace is burning very strongly, even in this late autumn weather, I don't feel a trace of chill, on the chair next to the fireplace, there is a short old man, who looks almost seventy years old, and the old face can still see a trace of the shadow of his youth, and when he saw the two come in, the old man showed a smile: "It's been hard all the way, sit down and talk about it." ”

"Your Excellency Hovland, you are too polite...... Lin Yun nodded at the old man with a smile, but sat down without much politeness.

"Hehe......" The old man was slightly stunned at first, because he noticed that the other party called himself Lord Hovland, not Grandpa.

Hovland stepped into the realm of the Titled Magus ten years ago, and he is also a top-level powerful existence in Auckland, if it is a normal time, there is nothing wrong with Lin Yun calling him His Excellency Hovland.

But don't forget......

This was Lin Yun's first day back in the Merlin family.

Family power is maintained by blood relations, so under normal circumstances, the third generation of the Merlin family will only call Hovland grandpa.

But now. Lin Yun called him His Excellency Hovland......

As soon as Hovland heard this title, he knew that the other party had returned to the Merlin family. I'm afraid it's a lot more difficult than I imagined......

The thought of this gave Hovland a headache......

back then. When Judmerin left, only Hovland knew about it, Judmerin was going to Thousand Sails City, and when he was leaving, he repeatedly explained to Hovland that this matter must not be known to anyone, so for so many years, Hovland has been tight-lipped about this matter, because Hovland knows it. If Judmerin knew that he hadn't kept a secret, the consequences would be unimaginable......

It wasn't until recently, because of an accidental reason, that he heard that a large number of weapons forged from Netherworld Iron Ore appeared in Thousand Sails City, and Hovlan sent people to Thousand Sails City, only to find out that the people who mastered these Nether Iron Mines were the descendants of the Merlin family who were exiled outside. When he heard the news, Hovland sighed for a long time, and the Jad Merlin who had hung over his head like a shadow was no longer there, even his son Rogmerin. It seems that he also recently died in a shipwreck......

The only one left was a grandson named Mafar Merlin......

Moreover, this Malfa Merlin heard that he was still very unsatisfactory.

For this reason, Hovland sent William Merlin. On the one hand, I want to talk about Netherworld, and on the other hand, I want to help that Marfa Merlin.

But I didn't expect it......

After William Merlin went to Thousand Sails City. I immediately realized that the situation was not what I had imagined, yes. Malfa Merlin does have a Netherworld Iron Ore Vein, but he has no intention of transferring this Netherworld Iron Ore Vein at all, and the rumored alchemy shop that is heavily indebted has already been operating thrivingly, completely monopolizing the alchemy business in Thousand Sails City, not to mention, even in the nearby Strange Rock City, there are often some merchants and mercenaries who will purchase alchemy items from them.

The Merlin family itself has some alchemy business, how could Hovlan, as the head of the Merlin family, not know how lucrative the alchemy business is......

Not to mention Strange Rock City......

Just monopolizing the alchemy business in Thousand Sails City is very terrifying, and it is never an exaggeration to describe it as a rich one, William Merlin even once said that looking at the entire Thousand Sails City, the only one who can compete with Malfa Merlin for wealth is probably the Monchi family, which has been in business for thousands of years.

When he heard about these things, Hovland actually had some regrets......

If he had paid attention to Thousand Sails City earlier and Jad Merlin's grandson earlier, then now, Marfa Merlin, who can compete with the Monchi family for financial resources, is probably a member of the Merlin family a long time ago.

Unfortunately, it's too late to say that now......

William Merlin's letter made it clear that Marfa Merlin was not very interested in returning to the Merlin family, and even had some resistance, and if he rashly sent someone to contact him, he might even arouse the disgust of the other party.

So all this time, Hovlan Merlin did not send anyone to Thousand Sails City, but just let William Merlin stay there, let him try to have a good relationship with Marfa Merlin, and convey the wishes of the Merlin family at the appropriate time.

Because Hovlan Merlin knew that he had missed the best opportunity......

Malfa Merlin has grown up in Thousand Sails City for twenty years, and has never been in contact with anyone from the Merlin family at all, especially after this, Rogmerin was shipwrecked, and the entire Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce went bankrupt overnight, at that time, it was almost all up to Malfa Merlin to survive alone.

Now that Marfa Merlin is rich and has enough wealth to move the Merlin family, sending someone to contact him at this time will only make him feel that he is trying to rob his property.

In the final analysis, Marfa Merlin, who grew up in this environment, could not think of himself as a member of the Merlin family at all.

Hovland, as the head of the Merlin family, knew this better than anyone else.

That's right, the power of the family is indeed maintained by blood relations, but if you want to rely only on blood relations, let a big businessman with huge wealth rejoin the Merlin family, this kind of thing, I'm afraid only the old guys of the Council of Elders who only know the empty talk all day long will think that this is possible.

Hovland knew that there was still a long way to go for Mafa Merlin to return to the Merlin family......

Fortunately, after months of waiting, Hovland finally waited for an opportunity.

William Merlin brought back amazing news.

Marfa Merlin wants to enter the ancestral land of the Merlin family!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Merlin family......

It's pretty much plain ......

Although it is not easy to enter the ancestral land of the Merlin family, it is only for ordinary people, and which of the core children of the real Merlin family has not entered the ancestral land? Take William Merlin and their group as an example, Oye Merlin has entered, Lyon Merlin has entered, Rosmerlin has entered, and even William Merlin will enter the family ancestral land this year......

Mafa Merlin wants to enter the ancestral land, although it is a little unruly, but there are exceptions to everything......

As long as those old fellows of the Council of Elders raise their hands and sit on the gilded roses of great wealth, they will return to the name of the Merrill Lynch family.

At that time, Hovland was happy and agreed to many conditions.

Although these conditions are of little significance to the Merlin family, in Hovland's view, this can be regarded as a kind of importance to Marfa Merlin.

Then, the conversation between the two sides through William Merlin can be regarded as a very happy conversation.

Unexpectedly, when things arrived at the Council of Elders, they suddenly got stuck.

Because, the old fellows of the Council of Elders, who only knew empty talk all day long, refused Marfamerin's request to enter the ancestral land on the grounds that they could not break the family tradition.

Hovlan Merlin almost went crazy on the spot......

At that time, Hovlan Merlin really wanted to point at the noses of those old guys and ask, do you know how much wealth Malfa Merlin has in Thousand Sails City, and do you know how much loss the family will suffer if you talk about the family tradition in your mouth.

It's a pity that the Merlin family is like this, and the power of the Presbyterian Church is very large.

Even Hovland, who is the head of the Merlin family, does not dare to try to suppress the Council of Elders with the authority of the head of the family before he is absolutely sure, and it is a trivial matter to lose some face if he fails, the key is that it is likely to cause the Council of Elders to be impeached, and even Hovland, the head of the family, may not be able to sit firmly at that time.

At that time, Hovlan still fantasized that Marfa Merlin proposed to enter the ancestral land of the Merlin family, just to ask for a legitimate identity, so that the matter was not difficult, as long as he made some promises to him, first appeased him, and promised him that when the time was ripe, he would let him enter the ancestral land of the family, and the matter would be settled.

One of the conditions for entering the ancestral land of the Merlin family is to make meritorious contributions to the Merlin family.

This point is not difficult in Hovland's opinion, for a big businessman with a huge fortune, casually helping the Merlin family to complete a business can be regarded as a meritorious achievement.

When the time comes, he will let him enter the ancestral land of the Merlin family, and it will be a scene of great joy for everyone......

However......

The sound of "Your Excellency" just now made Hovland realize that this descendant of the family, who had never met before, didn't seem to be as easy to talk as he imagined......

"About your entry into the Ancestral Land......" Hovland opened his mouth to explain......

To be honest, Hovlan was a little embarrassed at this time, after all, he was a titled magician and the head of the Merlin family, and he promised to be good at the beginning, but now he is dishonest to a young man who is dozens of years younger than him......

"It's nothing, Your Excellency Hovlan......" Lin Yun smiled, the expression on his face was very calm: "I just want to know how to enter the ancestral land of the Merlin family." ”

"This ......" Hovland was a little embarrassed when he heard this.

Normally, it would not be difficult to enter the Merlin family's ancestral land.

But this time, I don't know what was going on, the voice on the Elder's side was surprisingly tough, and for a while, Hovland really didn't dare to agree to anything casually. (To be continued......)
