"It's impossible to store the produced fuel in the equipment. We have to set up a special storage place and buy some iron buckets to store the fuel. There were no new products in the system, so he could only order them from those foreign companies. He had to arrange for someone to handle this matter tomorrow. Sometimes, it was indeed a headache. The system was not omnipotent. It seemed that there was something limiting the system and it could not fully utilize its functions.”
"Let's not worry about anything else for now. Take advantage of this time to rest for a while. He could only wait until the defense of the Lin family's old residence was successful before he could get this equipment to process the fuel. Moreover, he had to keep it a secret. This series of things was complicated, but it was useless to think about it now. It was better to think about the things at hand.”
After Lin Yuanshan laid down on the bed, he began to sleep soundly. After he gave the order, each team began to carry out their tasks. The atmosphere in the Lin family manor and the Lin family mansion began to become tense. The three-wheeled motorcycle scouting team set off first and began their scouting operation. The armored vehicle attack team set off after them and followed far behind the three-wheeled motorcycle scouting team. After reaching the predetermined position, they would stop first and wait for the opportunity to attack. The reconnaissance team that was sent out previously had all returned. They were now carrying out reconnaissance missions outside the Lin family manor and the Lin family's old residence. The entire atmosphere began to become oppressive. Lin Yuanshan didn't feel anything about it, but the people in the Lin family mansion and the Lin family manor felt it very strongly.
In a courtyard of the Lin Family Manor, there were a total of eight people living here. A bearded man was the owner of this house. Other than her, there was also his wife, daughter, and son. There were a total of four people. The other four people were his sons on the surface, but they were actually his subordinates. However, because of the conditions, they pretended to be his sons.
"Boss, that brat from the Lin family has returned. Not only has he brought some maids and servants from the Lin manor, but he has also brought some soldiers. Those people are definitely not members of the guards. I observed them from afar before. These people are all from the army. They are definitely regular soldiers. I noticed that there were only ten of them, so I didn't think they were a big threat to us. However, what surprised me was that about two hours ago, another 100 soldiers arrived. Not only were they well-equipped, but they also had weapons that we had never seen before.”
"Second Brother and I counted from afar and confirmed it several times. We saw a small car, a few motorcycles, and a few iron boxes that were bigger than a small car. We have never seen such iron boxes before. He was a small car, but it didn't seem like she wasn't a small car. Both of them looked similar. Small cars were flatter, while this one was taller. It might be a new model. "These people have moved into the Lin family's old residence. Previously, those people recruited young and strong people to carry food. Some of our brothers have mixed in.”
"I saw a bunch of Mauser rifles. They are much better than the ones we have made in Hanyang. I heard one of our brothers say that he seemed to have accidentally discovered a heavy machine gun. That thing is not cheap. Last time, we were going to buy one that cost nearly ten thousand dollars, but it seems that the price has become cheaper recently. However, that heavy machine gun consumed too much ammunition. It was not used to kill people at all. It was used to earn money. Butler Lin had originally planned to equip them with one, but after considering the ammunition consumption, he gave up on the idea.”
"I'm not sure if this news is true or not. That brother said that he vaguely saw it, but he couldn't be sure. After I came back, I gave him a good lecture and asked the other brothers. In the end, the other brothers said that they didn't find the so-called heavy machine gun. So even now, I'm not sure if there are any heavy machine guns in the Lin family's old residence.”
"Boss, I know what Third Brother is talking about. I was there at the time. I feel a little awkward right now. I keep feeling like something is happening that we don't know about. "Logically speaking, that little brat from the Lin family shouldn't have returned at this time. However, that little brat has returned. Moreover, we didn't receive any news before this. Butler Lin didn't send anyone to inform us either. I felt that this matter was especially strange. In addition, the appearance of this army made me even more puzzled. One had to know that the Lin family had no contact with the army before. What was this army, which was obviously a regular army, doing in the Lin family's old residence?”
"Previously, the Lin family's old residence transported a large amount of food. This is a very suspicious place. Whether this food is used by this army or for other purposes, we still don't know until now. What's even more unbelievable is that the Lin family's little brat actually has contact with this army. I heard one of our brothers say that he saw Lin Yuanshan get off the car, which aroused my suspicion. Not to mention that he even established the so-called guard team, which was named after the four divine beasts, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise.”
" What surprised me even more was that those people actually obeyed Lin Yuanshan's orders. I didn't think much about this series of strange actions at first, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that something was wrong. I even made a big guess. I suspected that Butler Lin had been killed by Lin Yuanshan. However, after careful consideration, it was impossible. Butler Lin's strength was not weaker than Lin Yuanshan's. More importantly, Lin Yuanshan has such a powerful force in his hands. I won't believe that Butler Lin doesn't know anything about it. If the two sides were to merge, both sides would definitely suffer. However, from the looks of those people, there was no smell of gunpowder at all, and they had not experienced a fierce battle, so the possibility of a conflict between the two sides had been ruled out.”
"Butler Lin didn't send back any news, and Lin Yuanshan suddenly became so powerful. This is what has always been strange to me. We have no idea what happened in the county city. The people we sent to the county city to investigate have not returned yet. Previously, in order to avoid their suspicion, I asked my subordinates to take a small path to the county town. I reckon that the news will only come back tomorrow. Should we take action tonight? Boss, give us a definite answer. Our brothers are indeed confused now, so we can only rely on Boss to make the decision!”
"Yes, Boss, Second and Third are right! The brothers were all very afraid. They were afraid that the people from the Lin family's old residence would wipe them out. Now that they were staying in the Lin family manor, they felt a little anxious. With so much food coming to the Lin family's old residence, those bandits would definitely not let it go after receiving the news. If nothing unexpected happened, a battle would break out tonight. Brothers, we need to know which side we are on and we must have the strength to protect ourselves. We don't want to die in vain in the chaotic battle. Most of the brothers thought that they should leave this place as soon as possible and hide in the mountains for the time being. They would think about it after a few days. After all, as long as the brothers hid in the mountains and did not provoke anyone, they could continue to hide in the Lin Manor after the storm passed.”
“……”
"Alright, Fifth Brother, don't say anymore. I think Fourth Brother has already said what you wanted to say just now. Normally, you're the most afraid of death. If I weren't here to suppress you, you would have escaped long ago. The current situation is indeed very complicated. Even I don't understand some things. Before we figure out this matter, we will only fall into the lower levels if we act rashly.”
"We need to analyze today's matter. I don't dare to make a hasty decision. We have been hiding in the Lin Family Manor for many years. It was not easy to slowly accumulate such a large force. If we take a wrong step, it is very likely to cause huge casualties. All these years of hard work will be for nothing. Before we make any decision, we have to think about it carefully before we make a decision.”
"In the past few years, we've also experienced a few times when the Lin Family Manor was surrounded by bandits. Basically, we've minded our own business with those bandits. As long as they don't attack us, we won't provoke them. However, the prerequisite for us to live in peace with them is that there is no huge interest between us. Those bandits come to rob the people below, but they won't be able to get much. If they attack us, they will only get some weapons and ammunition. Moreover, it will be the outcome of both sides suffering. Other than that, it is difficult to talk about other benefits.”
"We are of little value to those bandits. It is useless to eat us, but it is a pity to abandon us. That is why we have maintained a balance for so many years. In the beginning, every time we brothers encountered bandits, we could only run away. However, with the development of these few years, our strength is no weaker than those middle-class villages. If those bandits want to attack us, they have to consider whether they have the ability to bear such a huge loss.”
"Over the years, with Butler Lin's support, our strength has expanded very quickly. We have 50 elites and 150 brothers. In total, we have 200 people. Each of us has a gun, and we have enough bullets. Each of us has at least 50 bullets. This is our strength and also our confidence. As long as our strength is there, no matter who comes, they will have to pay a huge price if they want to eat us. I believe that those villages are absolutely unwilling to pay such a huge price.”
