Just as I expected, when these four people came over, Lin Da pulled out gold from his bag.

"Alright, this is your reward. Live well, this place was never meant to be yours!"

Upon closer inspection, I saw that each person possessed a gold ingot, thicker than Old Dao's silver.

It looks like four ounces of gold.

One tael of gold should be ten taels of silver, and one tael of silver is one thousand copper coins.

Unfortunately, that's not the true value.

After giving the items to the four people, Lin Da continued to speak to us.

It seemed to be hinting at something.

"Haha, Uncle Chen, we're actually quite lucky. Uncle Dao tricked you! You were the first one there, and all you got were copper coins. You probably couldn't eat anything with those copper coins in ancient times, could you?"

At this moment, Zhang Ke spoke up.

For some reason, I felt very uncomfortable, even disgusted, when I first met Zhang Ke.

However, since ants like it, I can't really say anything about it.

"Fool, fool! The first one only has three copper coins, fool, big fool!"

At this moment, Wang Xu started again.

However, I didn't argue with him at that moment; I scanned him with my Heavenly Eye.

Just as I thought, the energy contained in this gold is pitifully small.

In other words, in this place, gold is less than silver and less than copper.

At least, that's what we're given.

The value of money is a number, but the value of energy is constant.

I finally understand what Fatty told me before she died: when necessary, you must believe in yourself.

"Alright, we've received the gifts. Guests, you may proceed to the lobby now!"

The guests have been waiting for quite some time, so please don't be late!

At this point, after we had put all the money away, Butler Lin started reminding the three of us again.

"Okay, got it! Let's get going!"

I nodded.

Since I can't leave now even if I want to, I might as well stay. If something really happens next, I can fight alongside Lao Dao.

I don't know about other things, but Lao Dao's skills are much better now than before.

Old Dao is much more impressive than when I first met him.

"Come on, Brother Chen! I'll go with you!"

Old Dao is as reliable as ever, and he's coming with me soon.

Ants are no exception.

"Uncle Chen, I'll go with you too!"

Ji Xinglan reacted very quickly.

The rest of the people gradually followed.

Don't let their pretentious attitude after receiving the money fool you; when it comes to something as important as this, they still know how to make the right choice.

The wedding procession finally set off again, with them walking in front and the rest of us following behind.

Ji Xinglan handed me the gold she had just received.

"Master Chen, here's the gold. Your three copper coins are far from enough. According to the rules in this booklet, money is the most important thing here!"

At this moment, Ji Xinglan stuffed the gold into my hand and told me all this.

I was a little surprised.

Although I did have some feelings for this girl, I really didn't expect her to actually put her money in my hand.

I know that the real value of this copper coin is far greater than that of gold, but the girl probably doesn't know that.

It's already quite remarkable that this girl would do this for someone she just met.

"Don't worry, I have a plan! Look, this was given to me by Lao Dao and the others. I'm actually not poor!"

I waved the things that Lao Dao and Ant had given me earlier.

After listening, Ji Xinglan nodded, and I gave the gold back to her.

Ji Xinglan is absolutely right. Money is the most important thing here. If there is no money, there might really be problems.

Although I wouldn't willingly give away the three copper coins, I also couldn't accept the money the girl offered me.

I then placed the gold back into Ji Xinglan's hands.

"Don't worry, I have my own ways of handling things here!"

After saying that, he handed the silver back to Old Knife and Ant.

"You two better behave yourselves and put the money away safely. Don't think about any more of this nonsense!"

I lowered my voice and talked as I walked, while also glancing ahead occasionally.

However, Lin Da didn't seem to notice us at all. He just kept walking forward and didn't pay any attention to the seven of us.

They continued to follow the convoy, while Ji Xinglan flipped through the booklet, looking at things she hadn't noticed before.

This is what I just asked for. I just told Ji Xinglan that if she wanted to help me, she should try to find some useful information from the booklet.

“Uncle Chen, I actually found him! Look, the Lin family used to be an official family, and they had quite a few businesses!”

The girl excitedly pointed to a line of small print on the back of the booklet, which introduced the Lin family's identity.

"This is unbelievable! I never imagined there would be an underground casino or something like that inside the Lin family compound!"

I was also shocked when I saw these small print.

Actually, I initially thought that the Lin family was a kind of esoteric family.

After all, the He family, to which Luo Tianhe belongs, is like this, and the Lin family, to which they are related by marriage, is similar.

It turned out that the place was named after a family of officials, and that it also housed various casinos and the like.

Before I came here, I never imagined that their family would have such a saying.

"Butler Lin, does your family own anything like an underground casino?"

I shouted something ahead, and Lin Da turned around and looked at me.

Lin Da didn't say anything, he just nodded at me.

A slight tremor ran through me; Ji Xinglan had indeed been right.

"Three masters, don't you know? All the guests attending this wedding banquet will go to the underground casino after the meal. This is an unspoken rule!"

At that moment, the servant driving the carriage turned around, smiled, and explained to me.

No sooner had the servant finished speaking than Lin Da suddenly came over and lashed out with his whip.

"How many times have I told you! Don't talk back!"

After Lin Da finished speaking, he grabbed the servant's tongue. His right hand, which was holding a whip, had somehow produced a dagger, and he cut off the servant's tongue right in front of the seven of us.

Upon seeing this scene, the two girls screamed!

Because it was so realistic, Lin Da simply threw the tongue on the ground, and we can still see it wriggling on the ground.

Outrageous!

"Alright, let's continue on our way! Please don't take offense, this is just the rule in our government office! We can't say things we're not allowed to say!"
