One thousand taels of silver is not too much, but it is not too little either.

It would save Lin Bei months of hard work.

Lin Bei accepted it generously. This was the reward he deserved, so naturally he would not refuse.

Afterwards, Lin Bei and Cui Shanhe drank several jars of wine and chatted happily.

During this period, Cui Shanhe even invited him to join the army, but Lin Bei declined.

Cui Shanhe is not a military boss, he is just the commander of the city guard in a small town, and he knows very few people above him.

If you want to develop in the military and want to climb up without a big background, you have to either fight in the north and south to build military exploits, or like Cui Shanhe, guard a corner and slowly gain seniority.

Both are extremely time consuming and energy consuming.

Lin Bei felt that with so much time, he might as well continue to sell iron and medicine.

Why go to the military to develop?

It’s not just resources!

As for Lin Bei, a foundry master and doctor, is he short of resources now?

not at all!

For a Qi and Blood Realm warrior who possesses both casting and medical skills, there is basically no need to worry about resources!

Except for the profitless business of murder and arson, no Qi and Blood Realm warrior can be as wealthy as Lin Bei!

With casting skills and medical skills, Lin Bei could still have the same resources as those sect disciples without joining any forces.

After having enough wine and food, Cui Shanhe patted his belly and left with satisfaction.

When parting, he turned back and added: "By the way, I took care of your armor issue for you!"

Lin Bei was stunned for a moment and nodded.

He was not too drunk and continued to practice.

The armor has not greatly improved his current combat power. In terms of defense, it cannot prevent the attacks of Dragon Vein Realm warriors. It can only be used to defend against the attacks of bows and crossbows.

For several days, everything in the town was properly arranged and order was restored again, but it was just not as lively as before.

Most of the strange beast corpses in the beast tide were sold to merchants who came to purchase goods.

Most of this money is used for pensions and military exploits.

It can be said that those who survived are basically considered to be rich.

It’s not like the mayor of the town, Lu Anbai, never thought of withholding it and hiding it in his pocket.

But he didn't dare.

This situation had happened in the past years, which aroused public indignation among the warriors of Changsheng Town, and the mayor's head and body were also separated.

After all, Changsheng Town is a town where warriors gather together, which is very different from ordinary villages and towns.

It is okay to secretly exploit some rent, and everyone is used to it, but if the pensions that their relatives and friends have paid for their lives are also deducted, then these warriors will inevitably become excited and transform from little sheep into wolves.

However, Lu Anbai only moved a little bit, and he still had some sense of proportion in his heart.

More importantly, although the pension and military exploits cannot be deducted, there is still a piece of fat waiting for him to bite.

This piece of fat belongs to the Zhou family!

The Zhou family was killed in this beast wave. Lin Bei killed the masters of the clan and was almost destroyed.

Nowadays, the Zhou family's two powerful ninth-level combat powers are no longer there.

Naturally, the three major families would not miss such a good opportunity. Like a pack of wolves that smelled blood, they swarmed forward and divided up and annexed the Zhou family's property.

Since then, the four major families in Changsheng Town have become three major families.

Perhaps, after the next beast wave, these three major families will be shuffled again.

Or perhaps, the next beast wave will directly destroy Changsheng Town, and new forces will flood in again to establish a new order.

In short, after the beast tide, the Zhou family, the "Zhou Papi" that people talked about, no longer exists!

Lu family.

Lu Anbai put a stack of silver notes into a beautiful wooden box and handed it to a young tribesman whom he relied on very much: "Go and give these five hundred taels of silver to Lin Bei."

"Remember, never lose your etiquette. If you can, try to make friends with them!"

"Yes, patriarch!"

The young man stepped back holding the wooden box.

The same scene also happened in the Lu family.

The head of the Lu family ordered a family member to go and deliver the gift.

The children of the family were a little puzzled: "Lin Bei is indeed extraordinary, but after all, he is only one person. Why should we, the Lu family, have such a big business to please him?"

The head of the Lu family shook his head and said, "It's not to please, but not to offend!"

"You've been training you all these years in vain. Can't you even see this little bit of knowledge?"

The head of the Lu family stared into the disciple's eyes with sharp eyes: "Let me ask you, how did the Zhou family fall?"

The disciple's eyes narrowed and he said: "Of course it was because he offended Lin Bei, and he killed most of the high-level combatants... But our Lu family didn't offend him either. He shouldn't be so bloodthirsty, right?"

"Our Lu family has not offended him, but our three major families have annexed the Zhou family's property. Shouldn't we show some expression?"

The head of the Lu family snorted coldly: "Lin Bei is not a man in the pond, so there is no need to make friends with him. He does not belong here, but you must not offend him!"

"He destroyed the Zhou family. Although I'm afraid he won't take over his property, we have benefited for nothing. If he doesn't hold us accountable, we have to show it!"

He stroked his beard, looked up into the distance, and said with a laugh: "If I guessed correctly, those two old guys are probably doing the same thing as me, you cunning old foxes!"

The disciple finally understood, secretly admired him, and stepped back respectfully.

After sending away the disciples from several major families, Lin Bei closed the courtyard door.

He clapped the thick stack of banknotes in his hand, shook his head and said with a smile: "This is called a worldly thing!"

He had nearly 1,500 taels of silver notes in his hand, all sent by the three major families. It was a thick stack, and just holding it made people feel extra at ease.

When you are poor in the busy city, no one cares about you; when you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives.

When one is strong, people and sophistication will naturally come to their doorstep.

If it weren't for the strength of the number one person in Linbei Changsheng Town, the three major families would probably have kept quiet after annexing the Zhou family.

But now, they personally sent disciples to deliver money to his door, and they also specifically wanted to make friends with him.

However, Lin Bei didn't want to make friends with these guys.

They are just silly sons of landlords with limited potential. Befriending them will only be a waste of your time.

"One thousand five hundred taels of silver, plus the one thousand taels of silver sent by Brother Cui, and my own savings, now I am sitting on a huge sum of three thousand taels of silver!"

Lin Bei spread the banknotes in front of his eyes and sighed.

Three thousand taels of silver!

I am afraid that the three major landowners and old wealth may not be able to come up with so much cash!

Most of their properties are real estate, which is a source of continuous and stable income. However, with a large family and high expenses, they may not be able to come up with three thousand taels of silver at once.

After all, they are just town-level landlords, not comparable to those real aristocratic families.

Although it looks like it, it is not after all!

"With these three thousand taels of silver, I can advance to the ninth level of Qi and Blood more quickly!"

Lin Bei's eyes lit up.

"Unknowingly, I have become the number one person in Changsheng Town. Maybe after the breakthrough of energy and blood is complete, I should leave here!"

His combat prowess has reached the top of Changsheng Town, and it is no exaggeration to call him the number one in Changsheng Town.

Now, his cultivation realm is about to reach the ceiling of Changsheng Town.
