"Okay, let Brother Yu choose by himself, whichever he likes is the one. Don't disagree with Uncle San when the time comes."
If he remembers correctly, Lin Yu seems to like his fourth sister Lin Qian, Lin Shan's precious daughter.
Lin Shan's heart skipped a beat, he forgot that his daughter is also a woman of the Lin family's age.
Looking up at Lin Mo's expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, his heart was full of bitterness.
Chapter 8 Lu Xiyue
Gentle breeze.
In the Lin family courtyard, Lin Mo lay comfortably in the gazebo, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere.
Today's sign-in reward is a weapon, the Golden Desert Eagle.
Lin Mo didn't expect to get a technological weapon, and he was very happy about it.
The golden appearance reveals the breath of a local tyrant, worthy of his identity.
It's a pity that it is only equipped with ten bullets, and I don't know if the Lin Family Firearms Factory can produce bullets for the Desert Eagle. If it can't, then this gun is a bit tasteless.
Touching the body of the gun, feeling the coldness of the gold, the corners of Lin Mo's mouth curled up slightly.
He thinks that this Golden Desert Eagle should come from CF. He played CF for two years on Earth, and he didn’t get this gun for hundreds of thousands of krypton gold. At that time, he almost chopped off his hand because of it. He didn’t expect to come to another world. , To make up for the long-standing regret.
At this time, Lin Yu, who was wearing a loose black exercise suit, walked quickly into the courtyard.
When he was exercising in the morning just now, his father Yan Bo suddenly appeared and told him that the son had told him about a marriage.
As soon as he heard the news, his mentality exploded, and his anger was churning in his heart.
If this is not what Lin Mo meant, he would definitely disagree, because he already has someone he likes.
But even if it was Lin Mo's intention, he was still dissatisfied.
After Yan Bo told him everything, he was stunned, ecstatically surprised.
He really likes Lin Qian, but his identity is destined to have no result with Lin Qian.
This made him extremely depressed, and sometimes he even felt resentful.
Now his wish has come true in Lin Mo's hands.
"Thank you, my lord." Lin Yu knelt down in front of Lin Mo with a plop, prostrating.
Lin Mo sat on the recliner, holding the golden desert eagle, and said with a chuckle, "Get up."
In this world, the ritual of kneeling is also the most important etiquette. It is generally only used to worship parents and ancestors in heaven and earth. Even if it is a pledge of allegiance or a servant salute, it is only kneeling on one knee at most.
Lin Yu's bowing to him is not just a sign of allegiance.
And this is what Lin Mo wanted. The reason why he fought for Yan Bo's status was to buy people's hearts.
Although he now controls the Lin family and Sedum, in fact he has no foundation of his own.
Even if it was Yan Bo, he couldn't guarantee 100% loyalty.
But now, he is confident that Bo Yan will be absolutely loyal to him, and at the same time he has won Lin Yu's loyalty.
He values Lin Yu more than Yan Bo.
Lin Yu is also 19 years old like him, but he has already reached the level of a warrior. With his help in the future, he will definitely become a martial artist and even reach a higher level.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin Yu!" Lin Yu stood up and looked at Lin Mo with sincere eyes.
Lin Mo nodded slightly, and said, "Leave all the affairs of the gun team to Uncle Yan. From now on, you can go to the Sedum Adventure Group as the deputy head."
With Lin Zhan and Lin Qing in the Lin family, Lin Mo doesn't need to be too concerned, but he is a little worried because there is no one in the Sedum Adventure Group that he trusts.
Although Song Bozhong had expressed his surrender to him, he still felt that it would be better to retain some trust.
The breeze blew by, the leaves rustled, and Lin Mo's snow-white robe was blown.
"The subordinates understand." Lin Yu said with a flash of light in his eyes.
Adventure party?
Isn't that where I want to be?
The son really knows my mind best.
And I will definitely not disappoint the trust of the young master.
He already understood what Lin Mo meant, looking at the floating white robe, he suddenly smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled.
Lin Mo waved his hand and said, "Go ahead and cultivate your relationship with my fourth sister. If my fourth sister doesn't want to marry you, then I really can't help you."
When Lin Yu heard this, his handsome face was red and irritable.
Resigned and left at a loss.
But as soon as he left, Bo Yan came to Lin Mo on his back.
"My lord, Miss Lu, the treasurer of the Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce, is here to visit."
Lin Mo leaned back in his chair, lost in thought.
The Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce is one of the big chambers of commerce in Jingshan City, and behind it is the Lu family of the city lord's mansion. In Jingshan City, the Lu family of the city lord's mansion is definitely the most powerful force.
Compared with the Lu family, the Lin family was far behind in terms of the number of martial artists and overall power.
And Lu Xiyue, the treasurer of the Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce, is the jewel in the palm of Lu Tianfeng, the lord of Jingshan City, and she is also a very powerful woman.
The Lu family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the family is extremely complicated. Although Lu Tianfeng is the head of the Lu family, he can't actually make decisions about many things. There is an elders' council in the Lu family, which greatly limits Lu Tianfeng's rights.
When Lu Xiyue wanted to be the shopkeeper of the Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce, there was a lot of noise from the Lu Parents' Association, which spread throughout the entire Sedum City, but in the end Lu Xiyue still took the position of shopkeeper with Lu Tianfeng's support.
And she did not disappoint Lu Tianfeng's support. Under her control, the Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce has more than doubled in size in three years, and has jumped from a second-rate chamber of commerce in Jingshan City to a top chamber of commerce.
It can be seen from this that Lu Xiyue's abilities and methods are not simple.
However, the Lin family has no interest relationship with the Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce. The Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce mainly deals in spiritual fruit herbs, but also involves planting, food, clothing, minerals, etc., and has little contact with the Lin family's weapon industry.
Lin Mo didn't understand why Lu Xiyue came to visit him.
But he certainly can't hide behind closed doors.
"Miss Lu, please come here." Lin Mo said.
Yan Bo left, but soon returned to the small courtyard with several young women.
In an instant, the fragrant wind in the courtyard hit, and wafted on the tip of Lin Mo's nose, making his heart tremble uncontrollably.
"Hehe, is this the new head of the Lin family? Sure enough, he is handsome, young and promising." The tingling laughter made Lin Mo secretly curse at the goblin.
Lu Xiyue is 22 years old this year, just at the age of youth, with a plump and exquisite figure, fair and delicate skin, black and white eyes revealing a charming style, small and ruddy lips with a bit of temptation, even if Lin Mo's eyes have experienced countless times in previous lives The baptism of red can't help but marvel.
Lin Mo suppressed the impulse in his heart, turned his gaze to the maid behind Lu Xiyue, and said with a light smile, "Miss Lu's presence really makes my Lin family flourish."
Lu Xiyue pursed her lips and smiled, lifted her long skirt, walked to Lin Mo and sat down gracefully, then said with a smile: "Patriarch Lin is really impressive."
Nodding slightly, Lin Mo said calmly, "Compared to Miss Lu, I'm still far behind."
Looking at the slightly immature boy in front of him, Lu Xiyue frowned slightly.
It's really not an easy person to be able to resist his proud face.
She didn't know what Lin Mo had experienced in his previous life. Although her appearance was really alluring, it was not enough to make Lin Mo lose his composure.
After sorting out her mood, Lu Xiyue's expression also returned to her usual coldness, "You all step back."
The accompanying maids bowed and retreated, and Lin Mo also waved his hands, motioning for Uncle Yan to leave.
"Master Lin, the purpose of Xiyue's visit this time is to cooperate with the Lin family." Lu Xiyue said flatly.
Lin Mo poured tea and placed it in front of her, and made a gesture of invitation, "How does Miss Lu plan to cooperate?"
Lu Xiyue didn't pay attention to the tea, but stared at Lin Mo with both eyes, and said softly: "I hope the Lin family can support me in competing for the position of city lord."
Hearing this, Lin Mo couldn't help being taken aback, and looked at her in surprise.
Although Jingshan City is only a small city with a population of less than 30, it is equivalent to a city-state.
And the dignity of the city lord is self-evident, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the emperor of the earth.
It's too ambitious for a woman to want to be in such a position.
You want to be Wu Zetian!
There seems to be something interesting about this.
Lin Mo doesn't care who becomes the city lord, he doesn't want to be anyway, as long as the city lord doesn't provoke him.
But he didn't understand how Lu Xiyue competed for the city lord. Now that Lu Tianfeng was only about 50 years old, he was not yet ready to retire. Could it be that she wanted to rebel.
Chapter 9 Gale Sword
As if seeing Lin Mo's thoughts, Lu Xiyue explained: "My father will dismiss the city lord in January."
Lin Mo nodded clearly.
The position of the city lord of Jingshan City is not a system of succession to future generations, but a system of joint consultation between the strong. Simply put, several people at the top of the pyramid discuss who will be the lord of the city.
And only martial artists are qualified to stand at the top of the pyramid.
So there is an organization called the Martial Artist League in Sedum City, and Father Lin is a member of it.
Now Lin's father is dead, but the Lin family still has Lin Qing, Lu Xiyue's goal should be to win over Lin Qing.
The current Martial Artists League has a total of thirteen martial artists, of which the Lu family has four of them, and the remaining branches are in other families in Jingshan City.
Lin Mo didn't know if Lu Xiyue could handle the four martial artists of the Lu family, but the attitude of each martial artist is very important, so it is understandable that she came to win over Lin Qing.
However, Lin Mo did not intend to let the Lin family get involved in the battle for the city lord.
"This matter is of great importance, and I need to discuss it with the elders in my family." Lin Mo said politely.
Looking at his unwavering face, Lu Xiyue's thoughts sank slightly. She had underestimated the young head of the Lin family before.
Before coming here, she thought that the Lin family should be decided by Lin Qing, and Lin Mo was able to take the position of Patriarch because of Lin Qing's support. The reason why she visited Lin Mo first was because she thought it would be easy with her beauty and means. Getting Lin Mo to take the bait seems to have failed now.
But it is not her style to give up like this, so she said with a smile: "Master Lin may wish to ask for any conditions, I am willing to show my sincerity."
Lin Mo raised his eyebrows, looked at Lu Xiyue with starry eyes, and thought to himself: This woman is seducing me!
Or I'll let it go!
As soon as this idea appeared in his mind, he was strangled to death in an instant.
Lu Xiyue is not just a vase of beauty, her real face is a poisonous widow who sucks blood and marrow. If she really follows her, the Lin family will probably be devoured to nothing.
"I understand what Miss Lu means, but I really need to discuss it with my elders." Lin Mo declined again.
Rejected by Lin Mo again, Lu Xiyue knew in her heart that there would be no results today, so she had no choice but to give up the idea temporarily, but still kept a charming smile on her face, and took out a crystal card with a smile.
"Patriarch Lin, this is the VIP card of our Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce. As long as Patriarch Lin sees me, you can come to the Chamber of Commerce to find me at any time."
Hearing this, Lin Mo smiled lightly and said, "Thank you Miss Lu for your attention."
He reached out and took the crystal card.
Although he didn't want to cooperate with Lu Xiyue, he also didn't want to offend Lu Xiyue.
After the matter was over, Lu Xiyue didn't stay any longer, stood up and said with a smile: "In this case, the little girl will not bother Patriarch Lin anymore."
"Miss Lu, please go slowly."
"En!" Lu Xiyue nodded casually, turned around and left the courtyard without looking back.
Looking at her exquisite back, Lin Mo put away the smile on his face, frowned, and lay lazily on the recliner.
"Uncle Yan, do you think this is from the Lu family, or just from Lu Xiyue?"
Under the shade of the tree, Uncle Yan's figure came out, bowed and said, "It should be Miss Lu's own idea, the elders of the Lu family don't like this lady."
After Lin Mo was silent for a while, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said with a smile: "An ambitious woman just wonders if she has the strength to support her ambition."
In the final analysis, this world still depends on strength. Lu Xiyue's methods and abilities are very powerful, but her strength seems to be close, and the strength of the warrior realm does not allow her to become the city lord.
"It's hard!" Yan Bo sighed.
Lin Mo curled his lips and said lazily, "This world is really complicated."
"Face the wind!"
