The Government Assigns A Daughter-In-Law, Which Needs To Be Chosen?

Chapter 96: The Visit of the Four Absolute Northern Legs

"Did you strike it rich again?"

Upon hearing these familiar words, Lin Fan didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Yeah! These guys are all filthy rich. Although they can't compare to the thirteen great thieves from before, when you add it all up, it's worth several thousand taels!"

Su Erhu nodded heavily, then raised a big bundle of things in his hand, his mouth smiling so much it looked like it was about to split open.

"These guys are like walking treasure chests. I really hope more of them come."

This time, in addition to silver bills, there was also a lot of shiny silver. Although the quantity was slightly less than last time, the impact was even greater. The profits from this wave truly made him ecstatic.

To lie at home and have people constantly bring wealth to your doorstep, how could one not be happy?

"It seems like these guys truly deserved to die!"

Lin Fan looked at the huge sum of money. Without even thinking, he knew that a lot of it was ill-gotten gains. After all, many of these guys weren't engaged in any productive work, so it was obvious where the money came from.

Now that they were dead, it was truly a fitting end.

"Hehe~"

Su Erhu chuckled, naturally agreeing with this viewpoint.

Next was the division of spoils, but this time Su Erhu didn't want to take any. He felt that he was just doing his duty.

Taking a share before could be considered a reward, but giving him more now would be too much.

Lin Fan didn't insist. After all, the other party was following him, so he would never have to worry about running out of money in the future.

"Have you dealt with those intruders from last night?"

After collecting the drops from killing monsters this time, Lin Fan asked.

Su Erhu replied, "Those who were already dead have been taken care of. However, there are still some who haven't died yet. I've tied them up and left them in the garden. I suspect that since so many people came together, there must be a reason other than coveting the thieves' inheritance, so I didn't kill them."

"Good job."

Lin Fan smiled and praised. He didn't expect the usually foolish captain of the guards to be so clever.

"Hehehe~ It's all thanks to Brother Fan's teachings. I'm just following your guidance."

Su Erhu scratched his head and laughed foolishly, looking quite humble.

"Not bad, Erhu. Your words are becoming more pleasing to the ear."

Hearing these humble words, Lin Fan also laughed.

Compared to when he would always boast and say how awesome he was, Su Erhu's speech had indeed become much more pleasant.

"That's for sure! Isn't it all thanks to Brother Fan's teachings?"

Su Erhu laughed even more happily, his mouth about to split open.

"Alright, that's enough. But you really did a good job this time. It seems that choosing you as the captain of the guards was a clear choice."

Lin Fan shook his head, smiled, and praised sincerely this time.

Su Erhu's expression also became serious, his eyes filled with determination. "Brother Fan, since you were willing to trust me back then, I naturally can't let you down!"

"Not bad, not bad."

Lin Fan patted his shoulder, and then the two of them entered the garden.

The garden had been cleaned up, but there were still traces of congealed blood everywhere, permeating the air with a strong smell of blood.

"Close all the mechanisms later and arrange for someone to come and clean up."

Seeing this scene, Lin Fan immediately gave instructions.

"Alright."

Wang Erxiao, the assistant, had arrived during the process of the two of them coming to the garden. He immediately took note of this matter upon hearing it.

With so many servants in the manor, this task was not difficult.

After giving a simple order, Lin Fan followed Su Erhu's lead and came to the side of a rockery in the garden.

When these rockeries were built, a lot of effort was put into them. Not only did they take up a considerable amount of space, but there were also various oddly shaped rocks and many carved stone caves.

At this moment, Su Erhu tied up all the martial artists who hadn't died yet and threw them into these stone caves, using them as temporary prison cells.

The traps set up by Lin Fan and the poison arrows shot by Su Erhu were all coated with poison. Those who survived were all martial arts experts with profound inner strength.

The weakest among them were peak second-rate, and many even reached first-rate level.

These people were not weak in the martial arts world. Even though they knew that the thirteen great thieves had met their end here, they still dared to intrude, naturally having the confidence to back it up.

But now, all these martial arts experts were like pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, tied up and stuffed into narrow stone caves, looking miserable.

"Erxiao, take this waist token and go to the branch of the Town Martial Bureau in the nearby town. Ask for help from the God-capturing Divine Constable. Tell them I have an important matter to discuss."

Lin Fan looked at these so-called martial arts experts, his gaze turning cold. Then he handed a identity token to Wang Erxiao and gave him instructions.

This identity token was left behind by the God-capturing Divine Constable from the Town Martial Bureau. It could be used to contact him.

There are so many martial arts experts here, there must be many from various martial arts sects, and I believe the other party will be very interested.

If we dare to cause trouble for him, it's not enough to just do this. We must make the forces behind him pay a price as well.

Only by doing this, will anyone who wants to cause trouble for him in the future have to think twice.

Although sending the Wealthy Boy is good, if we keep doing this, can we still make a living?

"Yes!"

Wang Erxiao respectfully took the token. During this time, he also received the strengthening elixir for his physique. His thin and weak body had already undergone a tremendous change, and there was no problem with running errands.

Moreover, he learned some martial arts from the two sisters Jian Ling, and Wang Wei, who was a third-rate person, was no match for him now.

With these conditions, his efficiency in handling matters has greatly improved, becoming Lin Fan's true assistant.

After arranging the follow-up matters, Lin Fan was ready to instruct Su Erhu to bring out two martial arts experts for a thorough interrogation.

With so many experts coming together, they definitely weren't just coveting the wealth of the Thirteen Great Thieves.

But before he could take action, the old butler came to him first.

"Master, there are three guests outside the door, saying they want to visit you."

The old butler respectfully spoke. During this time, he witnessed his master's iron-blooded methods and became even more awed.

Especially last night, the various miserable screams resounded throughout the night, keeping all the servants in the mansion awake all night.

This included him as well.

"There are three guests who want to visit me? Do you know who they are?"

Lin Fan didn't know what the old butler was thinking and asked in confusion. There had been quite a few visitors during this period.

The old butler replied, "One of them seems to be the leader of the Si River Gang in the city. When Lady Jian Ling stayed here before, he came to visit. The old servant recognizes him. However, the other two old servants have never seen them before, but judging from their temperament, they don't seem like ordinary people."

"The old leader of the Si River Gang?"

Lin Fan was once again stunned. He was naturally familiar with this old gang leader. He had even accepted the other party's sincere apology.

But come to think of it, he seemed to have never really met the other party. He only knew that there was such a person. Now, the other party took the initiative to visit, and even brought two people who didn't seem like ordinary people. This completely puzzled him.

"Let them wait in the reception hall. I'll be there soon."

Lin Fan didn't think too much about it. No matter who it was, he would know once he met them.

Outside the mansion gate.

There were three figures standing still, consisting of two old men and a young man.

One of the old men was the iron old leader of the Si River Gang, who was currently wearing a bitter expression, looking somewhat doubtful about life.

"Young master, I don't know much about this host, but the only thing I know is that this host is not an ordinary person and has a deep connection with the Tyrannical Saber Villa."

Although the Iron Gang Leader was questioning his life choices, he could only respectfully answer the inquiries of the young man beside him.

"Your gang is the ruler of this county, isn't it? How come you don't even know such a small matter? How did you manage to survive?" The young man's face was displeased, thinking that the other party was truly useless, as the so-called ruler was just fooling around.

"It's my incompetence," the Iron Gang Leader said with a bitter face. In theory, he should indeed know about these things, but before he even had a chance to know, he was forced to open the door by someone he couldn't afford to provoke and ended up losing a huge sum of money in confusion.

In this situation, how could he have the courage to know?

As for other information, since two inexplicable disasters came out of nowhere, he had become more cautious. He even disbanded the gang recently and announced his true withdrawal from the martial world.

If it weren't for the two people in front of him coming to his door, he would never have left his own home.

But there was no way, he couldn't afford to offend the two people in front of him!

"Xiaofeng, don't be rude. Although your Uncle Tie has left our Tan family, he is still your elder. How can you speak like this? Apologize to your Uncle Tie immediately," another old man spoke up. He had white hair and looked a bit weak, but when he spoke, the Iron Gang Leader's back would bend down to the ground.

But this time, it wasn't because he was scared, but because the identity of the old man who spoke was too terrifying.

The Great Long Jianghu had four absolutes.

And the white-haired old man in front of him was the North Leg, the head of the Tan family, one of the four absolutes.

This absolute power was not based on the nature of martial arts sects, but on a family.

To stand as an absolute power with the strength of a family alone showed how terrifying the strongest person in this family was.

Now, this strongest person was standing in front of him, how could he not bow down?

The young man was very dissatisfied, but at this moment, he couldn't speak up to apologize to the Iron Gang Leader.

Where would the Iron Gang Leader dare? Although this young man's strength was not strong, he was the successor of the North Leg. Even if the other party slapped him in the face, he would have to greet him with a smile.

Seeing this scene, the white-haired old man planned to continue lecturing the young man. In this era, a master was not only responsible for teaching skills, but also for teaching how to be a good person.

But before he could continue speaking, the tightly closed gate of the estate was opened.

The butler received the instructions from the master and politely invited the three of them in.
