Chapter 50 Game, Father Lin teaches his son
The essence of all human social relations is exchange.
In an exchange process, whoever needs the other party more will take the initiative in the transaction.
After hearing Yi Chen's words, Lin Zhenbei showed a thoughtful look on his face, and then he smiled.
They are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are they playing Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio?
He simply got straight to the point.
"Master, it's over."
"You want me, the Zhen'an Division, to bear the consequences of this incident, and you're asking me for benefits, and you're also trying to owe me a favor."
"This is not appropriate."
Yi Chen picked up two red dates on the table, put them into his mouth and chewed them gently.
"Well, Master Qianhu, that's not how the account is calculated."
At this time, Yi Chen's back was straight and his body was slightly leaning forward.
"This time, the deal is a win-win for both of us. I need the Zhen'an Division to help me shoulder the consequences of this incident, but there is more than just you, Sir Qianhu, in the Zhen'an Division."
Yi Chen's faint voice was heard, his words were not harsh and there were not many words, but it made Lin Zhenbei's heart tremble with fear.
How could he not hear the hidden threat in Yi Chen's words?
If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will.
After all, his deputy is also a smiling tiger. If Yi Chen really looks for his deputy to trade, he will be at a real loss.
"Tell me, what treasure of mine do you like, Taoist priest?" Lin Zhenbei leaned back in his chair and spread his hands. His meaning was obvious: he admitted defeat.
Yi Chen's eyes lit up instantly when he heard that, and he quickly and attentively poured a cup of tea for Lin Zhenbei.
"I heard from your son that the Qianhu Lord found an unknown species of spirit beast egg in a ruin many years ago and regarded it as a treasure."
"Do you think... can you give it up?"
Lin Zhenbei's face instantly darkened when he heard this, and he turned to look at his eldest son.
"Fuck, Taoist priest, you are trying to trick me..."
However, before Captain Lin could finish his words, he was grabbed by the collar and dragged out by Lin Zhenbei. Five minutes later, Captain Lin, who had felt the father's love, came back with a bruised face and looked at Yi Chen with resentment.
Damn it.
Who says the countryside is simple? Yinlong Temple is located in a remote countryside.
The road in the Taoist temple is slippery, and people’s hearts are even more complicated.
"Master Yichengzi, I've given it up. I'll come back early tomorrow morning to bring the spirit beast egg here, and then we'll make the deal together." Lin Zhenbei said in a muffled voice with a dark face.
Hearing this, the smile on Yi Chen's face became even brighter, and he quickly comforted the two of them.
He then continued with another intensive output.
I may make a small profit, but you, Lord Qianhu, will not lose anything at all.
What does it mean to not count small things, but count big things?
Why do you want to integrate your personal interests into the big chess game of the court? Today, your son has made great contributions, and his future will definitely be smooth. He is a talent, and he has a good family background. The rewards from the Zhen'an Division are not small. Miraculous achievements, wonderful methods, geniuses, and treasures can be recovered even if you spend all your money, let alone a mere egg?
There were also things like father and son being promoted together, a good story spreading in Zhen'an, reports from the imperial court, and the perseverance of two generations moving Dai Viet... After this conversation, both Lin Zhenbei and his son felt that they were a little ungrateful.
Taoist Master Yichengzi is such a good person. They have already won, they have won so much.
They have already defeated this tall and strong Taoist priest who is stronger than a bear by a huge margin.
Yi Chen discussed the details with Lin Zhenbei again, and after they reached an agreement on what to say, he politely escorted Lin Zhenbei and the other man out of the Taoist temple.
"Qingfeng, Mingyue, how do you do things?"
"Why don't you give Master Qianhu a few kilograms of chestnuts from our Yinlong Temple and give them to Master Qianhu and your dear brother Lin Zhengyi?"
"That's really tactless."
Yi Chen pretended to be angry and greeted Qingfeng and Mingyue.
Upon hearing that, two cute little kids came out happily carrying two brown paper bags.
"Brother Lin, this is for you."
"Master Qianhu, I'll give you some chestnuts."
The two kids handed the bag to the two men.
However, before he could finish his words, a sugar-roasted chestnut fell on Qingfeng's head.
"Big Brother, why did you hit me!~" Qingfeng said aggrievedly, covering his head.
"Beating you is considered light."
"You rude and unlucky child, why are you calling me Lord Qianhu? You should call me Uncle Lin."
Lin Zhenbei: “….”
Lin Zhengyi: “….”
Watching the two people leaving, Yi Chen waved his hand from behind to say goodbye.
"Come and play often when you have time~"
被观外的冷风一吹,林正义感觉前面被父亲爱的铁锤揍过的脸颊都没那么疼了。
At this moment, Lin Zhenbei, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
He looked at his eldest son tenderly.
"Son, have you learned it?"
"Ah? What have I learned?" Captain Lin showed a wise look when he heard this, not knowing why his father said that.
This time, Lin Zhenbei surprisingly did not let Lin Baihu feel the depth of fatherly love again.
He found a vacant space, patted the side, and invited Captain Lin to sit next to him.
"Zhengyi, what do you think of Taoist Master Yichengzi from Yinlong Temple?"
Lin Zhengyi thought for a moment, then said: "I have inquired about this Taoist priest Yi Chengzi, and he does not have any bad deeds on weekdays."
"Although he has many ulterior motives, he is also quite pitiful. He is the sole propper of the entire Taoist temple. His master, Bai Yunzi, is honest and upright. If such a person can be given the position of temple master, he must not be a bad person."
"Now I feel that the Master is a little greedy, but how many saints are there in the world who are selfless? Even if Master Yi is a little greedy, he saved the child's life after all."
"What Taoist Master Yi Chengzi said about this transaction is actually not wrong. We actually did not lose anything. On the contrary, we got the better deal."
"In short, I have a good impression of Taoist Master Yi Chengzi. Although he is a little greedy, he dares to explore the evil spirits with the children, instead of shrinking his head and pretending to be dead like the Lingfeng Temple."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After hearing what his eldest son said, Lin Zhenbei smiled. He reached out and touched the big bump on Lin Zhengyi's head.
"Does it still hurt?"
"Justice, I know you have a strong sense of justice and hate evil."
“It’s both a good thing and a bad thing.”
"Let me tell you, kindness and justice are both excellent and expensive qualities."
"But kindness and a sense of justice without power will only hurt you."
"Father knows that you want to be a good person and eradicate evil spirits."
"You once swore that a man should be just and fight against evil with a loyal heart."
"But the cost of upholding justice is very high. You can only defeat them and protect yourself if you are more treacherous and cunning than those evil people."
When he said this, Lin Zhenbei couldn't help but reveal a look of reminiscence on his face, as if he had thought of something. He sighed and continued:
"Justice, in the future you should think twice before you act, and learn more from Taoist Master Yi of the Hidden Dragon Temple."
"You need to develop some skills. You are my only son, and I don't want to see you die young. Do you understand?"
At this moment, a look of emotion also appeared on Lin Zhengyi's face.
"Father, I understand. I will think twice before doing anything in the future and be more careful."
"You're grown up now, so just know it."
"Is your head still hurting?" Lin Zhenbei stretched out his big hand and gently rubbed the big bump on his son's head.
His movements were very gentle, making Lin Zhengyi feel like he was back in his childhood, when his father touched his head in the same way to comfort him when he fell.
"Father, it doesn't hurt anymore." A trace of mist appeared in Lin Zhengyi's eyes.
Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run.
Soon, with a loud bang, a slap hit the big bump on Lin Zhengyi's head. In an instant, he had bumps on top of bumps, and his head looked majestic and extraordinary.
"No pain?"
"It doesn't hurt, right? I feel bad for you, old man."
“It hurts so much.”
"I spent a lot of money to get that spirit beast egg. I have been nurturing it for ten years. It will hatch soon. I plan to give it to you in a few days."
"You're a loser~"
"Look at the hammer~"
Father’s love is like a mountain. Sometimes, it is so unique and heavy.
This is another vivid lesson on love education.
Lin Zhengyi's screams echoed in the open space.
"Have you learned your lesson?"
"It's getting longer. It's getting longer."
"Have you learned Master Yi's operation?"
"I learned it. I learned it."
"Dad, please stop hitting me. If you continue, I will tell mother about it."
Noticing this, Lin Zhenbei immediately stopped his love education.
He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his rising son again to comfort him, but this time it seemed that he was a little too heavy-handed.
But this time he didn't touch it.
Lin Zhengyi jumped three feet away and dodged.
He let out a scream that was so loud that it stopped the moving clouds and echoed through the trees.
“Ah~”
"Dad, are you coming again?"
“That’s too much!”
