Chapter 181: Sometimes Knowing Too Much Isn’t a Good Thing
“We came uninvited, I hope Master Lin won’t mind.” Chen Feng walked into the living room with two Shadow Dragon Guards, a friendly smile on his face.
Since he was here to ask for help, he did not display any arrogance. He had considered seeking help from other families but felt it might not be appropriate.
They might investigate the matter seriously due to his status as the Northern Border’s Throne, but privately, who knows if they would genuinely pursue it.
After much thought, Chen Feng felt that seeking help from the Lin family was the most reliable option. After all, Lin Tianlong was his colleague.
Although Lin Tianlong was one of the Eight Great Generals of the Northern Border, his rank was slightly lower than Chen Feng’s and he was not under Chen Feng’s jurisdiction.
Like Chen Feng, he only took orders from the War God of the Northern Border, though he had less military power.
As he spoke, Chen Feng handed over some specialty products from the Northern Border to Lin Canghai.
“You are my son Lin Tianlong’s comrade?” Lin Canghai looked at Chen Feng curiously, already somewhat convinced by Chen Feng’s words. After all, the terrifying aura inadvertently exuded by Chen Feng was not something just anyone could possess.
“Yes, I am Lin Tianlong’s comrade.”nChen Feng said, taking out a small red booklet and handing it to Lin Canghai with a smile. He could see the doubt in the old man’s eyes.
“This...” Seeing the credentials Chen Feng handed over, Lin Canghai’s face showed shock.
He didn’t expect this young man to have reached the position of a Throne in the Northern Border.
His youngest son was in his thirties and had just barely reached the position of one of the Eight Great Generals, thanks to Lin Canghai’s extensive connections.
For Chen Feng to have reached the Throne position at such a young age, he either had extraordinary abilities or an incredibly powerful background.
“What brings you here today, young friend?” Lin Canghai stroked his beard and looked at Chen Feng with a smile.
Seeing that Chen Feng was someone worth befriending, his attitude was very friendly.
“Has Master Lin ever heard of the Chen family in Linjiang City?” Chen Feng took a sip of the hot tea handed to him by a servant and asked calmly.
“Then I trouble Master Lin to investigate. I will reward you generously!” Chen Feng said earnestly. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he left.
Although Lin Canghai agreed to help, Chen Feng couldn’t rely solely on him. He also planned to conduct his own investigation.
...
“Grandpa, who was that person just now?” Lin Xiyan walked in from outside, looking at Lin Canghai curiously.
“He is a comrade of your uncle, asking me to investigate something.” Lin Canghai said with a smile, not hiding anything.
Lin Xiyan nodded thoughtfully, not asking further. She wasn’t particularly interested in such matters.
“How is the cooperation with the company from Modu going?” Lin Canghai asked curiously.
A large pharmaceutical company from the Modu wanted to establish a long-term partnership with the Lin family. Thinking of the potential profits, the Lin family quickly agreed. However, they specifically requested to negotiate with Lin Xiyan.
“Their representatives will arrive in Linjiang City tomorrow. I will meet them then.” Lin Xiyan frowned slightly, feeling a bit uneasy. She instinctively felt that the other party had ulterior motives.
Although the initial cooperation had little profit, long-term cooperation would be quite lucrative.
“I’ll go rest now.” Saying this, Lin Xiyan turned and went upstairs to her bedroom to rest.
...
In her room, Lin Xiyan lay on her soft bed, took out her phone, and opened Jiang Che’s profile, typing a message.
“Do you have time tomorrow?” She thought it would take a long time to get a reply, but to her surprise, Jiang Che responded quickly.
“Yes, what’s up?”
“I have a business meeting with Mr. Zhao from Modu tomorrow. Can you accompany me?”
“Of course, I’ll come find you tomorrow.”
