With the intervention of Hilko, the Alchemy Baron Meeting went smoothly.

Li Lin told his idea of ​​building the base city to the six alchemy barons present who had not yet recovered from their shock.

Everyone is willing to support him, but is it just a facade?

The construction of Zaan is about to begin, and the answer will be revealed then.

However, based on Li Lin's observation of the expressions of several people, at least three old acquaintances, Ren Ni, Barritt and Longfellow, would cooperate.

As for Bonnie, Li Lin could see the resentment and anger that flashed in her eyes from time to time.

This woman must have a close relationship with Finn, and it seems that she is very likely to trip him up secretly.

However, Bonnie only monopolized the dance hall industry in Zaun, and his strength was relatively weak among the alchemy barons.

In addition, Renata's recent acquisition of the nightclub conflicts with her interests, so this alchemy baron will not be able to cause much trouble in the short term.

As for the remaining two alchemy barons, one of them, Mrs. Voss, was obviously cowardly but had ulterior motives.

And Lanner still maintained a calm smile, which was hidden so deeply that nothing could be seen.

But Li Lin knew that she had dealings with the big families in Piltover, and her industries were inseparable from Upper City.

Unless instructed by someone, there is a high probability that there will be no conflict with any party related to the construction of Zaun.

In addition, since Finn's death, the border market at the border of Piltover and Zaun has been without a leader.

Li Lin had secretly poked Vandel several times, hoping that he would take the opportunity to speak out in the meeting to take over the border market.

But what he didn't expect was that Vander, who was as stubborn as a donkey, was still angry. He completely ignored him and remained silent until the end of the meeting.

Even when Hilco asked to leave the border market, he didn't say a word.

Originally, Li Lin had no intention of letting Hillco take advantage of this, but he really couldn't bring himself to say it.

As a member of the Jiraman family, if he were to go to the border market, the other alchemy barons would only think that the upper city family was trying to interfere in the affairs of the lower city.

Although we will have to intervene in the future, at least we will slowly assimilate.

This was the "boiling frog in warm water" plan conceived by Li Lin. While building the base city, he vigorously promoted his own name.

When Zaun develops, the people of Zaun will eventually only remember that it was Li Lin who allowed them to live a good life, not the alchemy barons.

Now is the early stage of Zaun's development, and unnecessary conflicts should be avoided as much as possible.

After the Alchemist Baron meeting ended, Hilco was the first to leave and asked his men to recruit the people brought by Finn.

Maybe Finn is not very nice to his subordinates on a daily basis.

The recruitment process was surprisingly smooth. Even after learning of their boss's death, these guys didn't seem too surprised.

Immediately afterwards, Voss left with his men with an expressionless face.

The four alchemist barons who were acquainted with Vandel said hello to him and hurried away with their men.

To Li Lin's surprise, Lannar actually came to him and exchanged a few polite words before leaving, asking him a few questions about the construction before letting the maid push him away.

For the next while, only Li Lin and Vander, who was sitting in a chair in silence, were left in the room.

Soon, the brown-red double doors inlaid with silver-white patterns were pushed open again, and Benso with a gloomy face, the cold-looking Sevika, and the bald strong man walked in.

"Goddammit, if I'd known Hilco was coming today, I should have brought the shotgun from the store and shot him in the head."

"There are too many of them, Benso. If you really do this, we probably won't be able to walk out upright today." The bald strong man stroked his shiny forehead and said helplessly.

"You are a coward, Code. As long as we blow off Hilko's head with one shot, will his men obey the orders of a dead man?" Benso folded his arms and snorted coldly, the fat on his face and body shaking.

Sevika ignored Benso's nonsense and pulled a chair to sit in front of Li Lin and Fandel. "Judging from the looks of Hilko and the alchemy barons just now, I think you guys have reached an agreement, right?"

But she soon noticed that Fandel was in a bad mood and looked at Li Lin with a puzzled look, "Why, didn't you reach an agreement?"

"It's settled. That's not what Vander is angry about."

Li Lin pointed to the inside of the hall, where Finn's charred body was still lying there and had not been dealt with.

Benso leaned his head out and glanced in the direction he pointed, his face suddenly filled with shock. "Damn, how did that stupid boy Finn become like this?"

"Didn't Hillco just say that this guy was dead?" explained the bald strong man Code.

"Of course I heard it, tsk tsk... I just didn't expect this guy to die so miserably." Benso smacked his lips. "Let him die, anyway, this idiot hasn't done anything good in the past few years."

"You killed him?" Sevika raised her eyebrows slightly, with an expression of surprise.

Hilco just now did not reveal who killed Finn outside.

But judging from the miserable and fragmented body of this guy, ordinary weapons would not have such power.

Therefore, the only one who can do this is Li Lin.

"You are too impulsive, Li Lin." Without waiting for Li Lin's response, Vander, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

Li Lin opened his mask and his calm gaze met his eyes.

"Are you sad for him? Have you forgotten how he treated you before? In Finn's heart, you are no longer his boss."

"That's true, but..." Vandel hesitated, "But he once fought with us, he's our brother..."
