Lin Zhiming didn't expect that Lin Cairong would say such a thing. He was actually ready to negotiate with Lin Cairong, and even thought of using some small means to give himself an advantage at the negotiating table. As a result, Lin Cairong now
After being killed and kidnapped by Goucheng, he actually directly planned to lead the Lin family in Dongyun Province to surrender. This is a bit too magical.
"Why?" Lin Zhiming frowned and asked in confusion.
"I wasn't sure before, but after what happened tonight, I firmly believe that you will definitely become the one to take over the Lin family in the imperial capital. If that's the case, then why should I negotiate with you? All negotiations are
In order to compete with you for the position of the head of the Lin family in the imperial capital in the future, but now I find that this matter is no longer possible, then I might as well join your camp directly. At least this way I still have the merit of supporting you, and you will definitely not lose money in the future.
My people." Lin Cairong said.
"It's not enough." Lin Zhiming shook his head and said, "If it's just what you said, I don't think it's enough for you to join me."
Lin Cairong was silent for a long time after listening to Lin Zhiming's words. Then she said, "Indeed, this is only part of the reason. The other reason is... I'm afraid of you."
"Are you afraid of me?" Lin Zhiming frowned and asked, "Why are you afraid of me?"
"You can be so cruel to your own men, how can you be more terrifying to your enemies? If we really become enemies in the future, I'm worried that I won't be enough for you..." Lin Cairong said.
"Um..." Lin Zhiming didn't expect that he would get such an answer. He said awkwardly, "I am actually a kinder person."
"Is this what you think?" Lin Cairong asked.
"So... right." Lin Zhiming nodded.
"Then it's good to live in your own world." Lin Cairong said.
"Um..." Lin Zhiming twitched his lips in embarrassment, and then said, "Are these two reasons the only ones? It doesn't seem to be enough."
"Actually... there is the most important point." Lin Cairong said.
"Tell me what it is!" Lin Zhiming asked.
"You saved me, and you saved my life." Lin Cairong said solemnly.
"This is what it should be. You come to my territory. If something happens on my territory, I must save you no matter what." Lin Zhiming said.
"No, you don't understand what I mean. What I mean is that if you don't save me, I will be taken away by the other party and disappear from this world. At that time, the leaderless Lin family in Dongyun Province will not be able to resist at all.
The only result of holding your army is to be annexed by you. In a sense, it is better for you not to save me than to save me, and there are people to help you take the blame, but... you still saved me in the end. This
It moved me very much, and also made me understand that you are not an absolutely cold-blooded and cruel person, so I came up with the idea of leading the Lin family of Dongyun Province to join you!" Lin Cairong said.
"Oh..." Lin Zhiming made a long voice, then looked at Lin Cairong and said, "Although I don't have 100% trust in you now, but... I still choose to believe in you, and I accept the submission of you and your family.
As for the request you mentioned, you can make it, but as long as it’s not excessive, I will agree to it!”
"I need you to give our family enough independence within the clan." Lin Cairong said.
"What kind of independence?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Without interfering with the independent operation of our family, we recognize you as the main line and will show you the greatest respect in the coming decades." Lin Cairong said.
"No problem." Lin Zhiming smiled and said, "When I take over the Lin family in the imperial capital, your Lin family in Dongyun Province will become a line of its own. I will not impose any restrictions on your lineage. What do you think?
Just do whatever you want!"
"Really?" Lin Cairong asked in surprise.
"Of course it's true!" Lin Zhiming smiled and nodded. For him, the current Lin family in Dongyun Province can help him win the battle for hegemony of the Lin family in the imperial capital. Once the battle for hegemony is won, he will take over the Lin family in the imperial capital.
, then the value of the Lin family in Dongyun Province becomes insignificant, and letting them form their own lineage will have no impact on him.
"That's okay!" Lin Cairong nodded, "From today on, the Lin family in Dongyun Province is a lineage of your Lin family in Strait City!"
"This is really surprising!" Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"Are you planning to announce this matter to the public?" Lin Cairong asked.
"No!" Lin Zhiming shook his head and said, "Lin Haitang asked me to eliminate you. His purpose was not to strengthen me. He just wanted to use you to weaken me. If it is announced now that you have merged with me,
Then his purpose of using you to weaken me has failed. He will definitely find other things to do for me. I may not be as lucky as this time next time. Therefore, the best way is for us to deal with this matter.
The matter is kept secret, and at the same time, we have to fight to the death on the surface, making Lin Haitang think that I will consume huge resources on you. In this case, when the war between Lin Haitang and the Lin family of Beiji City ends in the future, our opportunity will come
Got it!"
"Okay! Everything is up to you!" Lin Cairong nodded.
"I wish our future will be smooth!" Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"I hope so!"
"Now that the matter has been settled, then... we can open the champagne to celebrate!" Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"Are you drinking? I don't have a good drinking capacity." Lin Cairong shook his head.
"It's just champagne, you won't get drunk!" Lin Zhiming said, calling Dong Jian to prepare champagne and food.
Not long after, food and drinks were delivered to Lin Zhiming and Lin Cairong.
"In the future, you will definitely be grateful for everything you have done now." Lin Zhiming held the wine glass and said to Lin Cairong.
"I hope so!" Lin Cairong also held a wine glass, clinked the glasses with Lin Zhiming, and drank the champagne in the glass in one gulp.
The champagne is fragrant, sweet and extremely delicious.
That night, Lin Zhiming and Lin Cairong drank several bottles of champagne until late at night.
Although the alcohol content of the champagne was not high, she couldn't bear to drink too much, and Lin Cairong was drunk all night.
The next day, Lin Cairong slept until noon and had another lunch with Lin Zhiming before taking the car back to Dongyun Province.
Lin Zhiming personally sent Lin Cairong to the train station and watched Lin Cairong enter the station.
"I didn't expect that guy Sha Goucheng to indirectly help me a lot!" Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"This incident can be regarded as a blessing in disguise!" Dong Jian said, standing next to Lin Zhiming.
"Now that Dongyun Province has joined, we finally have the ability to compete with Shengxi City and Beiji City! Next, we will just wait quietly for the war to start." Lin Zhiming said in a deep voice.
"Well, the climax of the war will come soon!" Dong Jian said.
"How is Lin Wei?" Lin Zhiming suddenly asked.
"It's nothing. I went to the hospital to have the wound treated. I asked him to reattach the little finger, but he didn't want to. He seemed to take this matter very seriously," Dong Jian said.
"Knowing shame and then being brave can lead to great things." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"The tasks of their group are very heavy. After you enter the imperial capital, they will be your business card in the imperial capital. As the leader among them, Lin Wei must have the appearance of achieving great things, otherwise he will be eliminated.
"Dong Jian said.
"Well... give him some medical expenses later." Lin Zhiming said.
"yes!"
That afternoon, when Lin Zhiming was working in the company, Dong Jian suddenly hurried into Lin Zhiming's office.
"Family, we just got the news that the Lin family of Shengxi City and the Lin family of Beiji City have officially started a war. Both sides have spent tens of billions of funds to launch an offensive against each other's capital in the financial market. The stock market of the entire Dragon Kingdom has just plummeted by more than
It dropped five percentage points, creating the largest single-day drop in the stock market this year!" Dong Jian said with a serious face.
"Has it finally started?" Lin Zhiming muttered, stood up and walked to the window to look out.
The sky is clear outside the window.
"This is what everyone thinks is the pinnacle battle of the Lin family's struggle for hegemony in the imperial capital. Everyone believes that after this pinnacle battle, a new master of the Lin family in the imperial capital will be born, so the whole society is paying attention to this battle. The stock market
The price fell so much because of the spread of panic over there," Dong Jian said.
"The size of the two major families is hundreds of billions. With their size, any action may affect the stock market, let alone the confrontation between these two major capitals. There will be even greater problems in the Longguo stock market in the future.
Fluctuations, this is the best time for our peripheral funds to enter the market to make money." Lin Zhiming said.
"I have already allocated 80% of the liquidity from the overseas battlefield, and I am just waiting for opportunities to enter the market. Currently, I am focusing on the listed companies under both sides. Don't worry, I won't take a bite out of each of them this time.
My name is not Dong Jian!" Dong Jian said proudly.
"It's up to you!" Lin Zhiming turned around and walked up to Dong Jian and patted Dong Jian on the shoulder.
"It's all what I should do!" Dong Jian said with a smile.
At this moment, Lin Zhiming's cell phone suddenly rang.
Lin Zhiming picked up the phone and took a look and found that it was Lin Haitang's number.
Lin Zhiming picked up the phone, and Lin Haitang's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I have officially declared war on the Lin family in Beiji City, and you... are about to take action!" Lin Haitang said.
"No problem." Lin Zhiming said.
"I hope you can kill Lin Cairong!" Lin Haitang said.
"Most definitely!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhiming said to Dong Jian, "We can start attacking Lin Cairong. Remember, we have to hit harder and more fiercely!"
"Understood, Patriarch!" Dong Jian smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Lin Zhiming walked back to his seat and sat down, crossing his legs and placing them on the table.
The climax of the struggle for hegemony in the imperial capital has finally arrived after brewing for so long, and he... will be hiding behind everyone and watching the clouds rise and fall. How can this feeling be described as exhilarating?
