Chapter 7: A Shocking Situation
Return to Lin Mansion.
Lin Zaitian directly found Lin Yida, who was drinking tea alone, and went straight to the point.
"Dad, I've been a little short of money lately, so I'll spend some money. ”
"You kid doesn't look like me else, but this big guy learns very quickly......"
Lin Yida put the teacup in his hand on the table, shook his head, and showed a playful smile on his face.
"Is it that you see so much money coming in and out of the account room, and your eyes are a little hot? Haha, this is normal. It was the same with your father and I when we first got into the family business. ”
After a pause, Lin Yida continued earnestly: "When you see more in the future world, you will find that this little family business of our family is not worth mentioning compared to those real big families. ”
Seeing Lin Zaitian nodding, Lin Yida showed a very satisfied smile.
"How much does it cost, you can open it directly to your second mother, you don't need to ask me. ”
Lin Zaitian smiled embarrassedly and stood still in place.
He considered that the amount he needed was not small, and Erniang would definitely not dare to make decisions without permission, and he would have to ask his father at that time, so it was better to speak directly to Lin Yida to save the trouble in the middle.
"Dad, that ...... I'll probably ask for more. ”
"Haha. Lin Yida laughed, "Most of the Lin family town is our Lin family's industry, in this acre of three-point land, how much can you spend even if you tear off your arms?"
Lin Yida was right, in the past few years, Lin Zaitian was able to receive ten taels of silver from the family every month, even if he spent lavishly, he could still save a gold bar.
But the situation is different today.
One or two gold bars are simply not enough to see here in Xiaoqi.
"Uh...... Erniang gave me ten taels of silver at most, but it was far from enough. ”
"Oh?" Lin Yida was a little curious, "How much are you going to want?"
Lin Zaitian smiled, "It's best to give me ten eight gold bars." ”
"Nonsense!"
Lin Yida looked at Lin Zaitian with some disappointment, and sighed: "Hey, I thought you had made a change, but I didn't expect it to be so unremarkable! Do you know the value of ten gold bars? That's a thousand taels of silver, enough to buy a hundred acres of fertile land!"
Speaking of this, Lin Yida shook his head, stretched out his hand and nodded at Lin Zaitian.
"Tell me about you, what have you done with your money all these years? I see you, you gave it to those little girls for nothing! Hmph! I can't agree to this!"
Lin Zaitian smiled bitterly in his heart, the impression his predecessor brought to others was too deep, it was not something he could reverse overnight, and this kind of thing could not be explained, so he had to silently bear the notoriety of his predecessor.
But he came prepared this time, full of confidence!
He didn't open his mouth to explain, but instead took the aura from the dantian and suddenly released the cultivation.
Suddenly, Lin Zaitian's temperament changed suddenly, as if he had suddenly changed a person, with his naturally handsome facial features and upright posture, like a jade tree in the wind, chic and elegant, and like a bright moon in the sky, dazzling, where is there still a little shadow of a bully?
"It's ......"
Lin Yida's eyes shrank, and he stood up suddenly, his expression excited, and his face showed disbelief.
"This is the fluctuation of cultivation! Tian'er, tell your father quickly, could it be ...... You've become a cultivator?"
"Not bad. Lin Zaitian smiled lightly and slowly put away his cultivation.
"Hahaha! Great!" Lin Yida stepped forward and hugged Lin Zaitian tightly and patted him on the back hard.
When Lin Yida was young, he traveled south and north, and he had seen many cultivators, so he naturally knew how powerful the cultivators were.
And Lin Yida's father is a cultivator, and now he is practicing in the mountain gate, and he hasn't seen him for 20 years.
Lin Yida has always been proud of his father, but it's a pity that he has not been able to gain a sense of qi, which is a regret in his life, so he does not allow people in Lin Fufu to mention the word practice on weekdays.
But at this moment, his son has become a cultivator, how can he not be happy?
"I didn't expect it! I really didn't expect it! Haha, my father is so happy! Tonight, I will put on a feast and let the Lin Mansion eat for three days! Haha!"
Speaking of this, Lin Yida remembered something again, and there was inevitably a trace of expectation in his eyes.
"Tian'er, as far as my father knows, mortals can only gain qi sense at most, and if they want to start practicing, they must practice the exercises! Tell your father quickly, did your grandfather come back secretly and secretly pass on your exercises? Does he have anything else to explain?"
It was the first time Lin Zaitian had heard about his grandfather, and he was also very happy.
"Dad, you mean, my grandfather is also a cultivator?"
This answer is obviously not what Lin Yida wants to hear.
He was very disappointed, his face was a little silent, and he said bitterly: "Yes, your grandfather is indeed a cultivator! If our Lin family didn't have him behind him, how could they develop so much? It's just ...... I haven't seen him in twenty years. ”
Lin Zaitian came from the afterlife, and he had some understanding of cultivating immortals, and knew that cultivators would retreat at every turn, and it was too normal for them not to appear for decades.
He smiled and asked, "Grandpa should be very powerful, right?"
"Hmm. Lin Yida seemed reluctant to mention his father, so he reluctantly squeezed out a smile and changed the topic.
"Tian'er, do you have another chance?"
Lin Zaitian's eyes lit up, and he waited for his father to ask this question.
The legendary Xianxia system is unique, and it is Lin Zaitian's biggest secret and dependence, so naturally he can't easily tell others, even his own father!
Besides, he knew that even if he wanted to explain, someone had to believe it!
With the knowledge structure of the people of this world, I am afraid it is difficult to understand.
So, he made up the story a long time ago.
A strange smile appeared on his face, and he pretended to be mysterious: "Yes, after the child was assassinated that day, he happened to be rescued by a white-bearded old man! He not only helped the child master the sense of qi, but also passed down a set of exercises to me......! This exercise is a bit special, and it needs to be cultivated with gold bars! Moreover, it can only be cultivated with gold bars!"
Hearing this, Lin Yida's eyes suddenly showed surprise, "There is such a magical exercise in this world?"
He said this just to sigh, not to ask Lin Zaitian to answer.
He said excitedly: "Haha, Tian'er, this is your good fortune, you must grasp it well! Dad fully supports you! You go and plug the door, and then come with me, Dad will give you all the gold bars he has saved!"
"Thank you, father!"
Lin Zaitian was overjoyed, bolted the door from the inside according to his words, and followed Lin Yida into the inner room.
I saw Lin Yida move away from a cabinet in the corner of the wall and lift a dark board on the ground, revealing a large black hole.
"This is my secret room, there are steps, hold on to the wall and go down slowly. Lin Yida turned around and admonished, and took the lead down the stairs.
"Good. ”
Lin Zaitian hurriedly followed.
After entering the secret room, Lin Yida took out a fire fold from his arms, lit a few candles, and the surrounding scene became clear.
This is a small secret room, only one zhang square, ten square meters, with several large boxes in the corner, all with large copper locks on them.
Lin Yida showed a proud look on his face, and said with a smile: "Although your father and I can't practice, but we are good at making money! Here is most of my father's savings over the years, in addition to a box of house deeds, there are also two boxes of jewelry and two boxes of gold bars!"
As he spoke, he handed a bunch of keys to Lin Zaitian's hand, "There are two hundred gold bars in total, you can take them casually, if you don't have enough, take some jewelry and go out to exchange them......! You'd better not move yet, that's the foundation of our Lin family! You can make more money when the money is gone, but if the real estate is gone, it will be difficult to turn over!"
Lin Zaitian nodded, his heart was full of emotion for his father's trust and support, and he even had a sense of belonging to the Lin family.
He walked straight to the gold bar chest and inserted the key.
Two hundred gold bars should be enough for him to mix for a long time, and he doesn't need to use other possessions.
Besides, he's not stupid, he won't do anything about killing chickens and taking eggs!
However, what he didn't expect was that the first box he opened was empty!
"What?"
Lin Yida was also shocked, stepped forward and snatched the key, and opened several other boxes.
Unfortunately, all five boxes were ransacked, just like a dog licked, and there was not a single hair left!
Lin Yida was shocked, and the whole person was stunned.
"How so? Who stole my money?"
Lin Zaitian's eyes were cold, and he had a rough guess in his heart.
It seems that the other party's purpose is not only to assassinate him alone, but even his father is also calculated, and he should be ready to completely bring down them!
He said in a cold voice: "The other party's plan should have started a long time ago, maybe because of my death and resurrection, which disrupted their steps!"
Lin Yida turned his head suddenly, and a look of panic appeared on his face.
"What did you say, Tian'er, what kind of plan, who is going to deal with my Lin family?"
It seemed to him that anyone who could steal these possessions from the side of his bed without knowing it could easily kill him.
Lin Zaitian smiled coldly, "What the other party wants to deal with is not the Lin family, but ours!"
"What do you mean?" Lin Yida frowned slightly.
Lin Zaitian told what he knew, as well as his speculation.
Later, he teased: "Daddy, I'm afraid that some of your eight ladies are collaborating with the enemy! Perhaps, there is more than one!"
After hearing this, Lin Yida's face became very ugly, and he slowly narrowed his eyes.
After a long time, he slowly spoke, "Hmm...... You're right...... Some of the things that have been going on all these years have finally gotten right!"
He sighed faintly and said to Lin Zaitian: "Actually, just three years ago, your grandfather came back quietly once and met with your second and third uncles, but he didn't see me. ”
"Oh, why?" Lin Zaitian was puzzled.
It stands to reason that his father is the eldest son and the patriarch of the Lin family, and there is no reason why his grandfather will not be seen when he returns.
Lin Yida said in frustration: "Hey...... Your grandfather came back because the second and third families all had children who had mastered the sense of qi, and they were talking about these children joining the sect in the future! Your father and I are not talented, needless to say, you were the laughing stock of the entire Linjia Town at that time, and your grandfather probably thought that seeing us would make him embarrassed. ”
Lin Zaitian suddenly understood, it turned out that this was mainly his own factor!
Then, he also figured out the cause and effect of the incident.
The second and third uncles must have felt that they had been valued by their grandfather, and their confidence had swelled.
In order to compete for the resources of the Lin family, they wanted to secretly bring down Lin Zaitian's father's team completely, so they set up a shocking situation!
These people not only assassinated Lin Zaitian's predecessor, but also bribed the women around Lin Yida and emptied his property!
It is estimated that according to their original plan, the next step is to get rid of Lin Yida!
But they didn't expect that Lin Zaitian suddenly crossed over, came back from the dead, and became a spoiler!
Thinking of this, Lin Zaitian couldn't help but clench his fists, and a killing intent flashed in his eyes.
