Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune
#390 - Chapter 390 Lin Mansion's Actions
The next day, at dawn, sunlight filtered through the sparse clouds, dappling the courtyard of the Cheng residence.
Cheng Feng outwardly maintained his usual calm, as if everything were normal.
The family, young and old, performed their duties, and the rhythm of life showed no sign of disruption.
The injured Lin Xiong, at Cheng Feng's invitation, received another round of treatment to solidify his recovery.
But Lin Wan'er felt that beneath this tranquility, unknown undercurrents were hidden.
Eldest Sister Zhao Wei, dressed in light, close-fitting attire, looked heroic and valiant.
Xu Miao, on the other hand, wore plain clothes and had a serene expression.
Cai'er, dressed in a novel and beautiful outfit, seemed somewhat uneasy.
After all, her cultivation level was only at the Skin Refinement stage.
Cheng Feng had entrusted Cai'er with full authority over the affairs of the Blackwood Manor.
This caused Cai'er, a concubine who was already a mother, to feel somewhat overwhelmed.
Zhao Wei and Xu Miao were skilled in combat but not in administration.
Tasking them with arranging household matters would likely lead to chaos.
They could only stay behind to safeguard Cai'er's safety.
As Bone Refinement stage martial artists, their combat experience was naturally unmatched by the other women.
But when it came to arranging household finances and matters, large and small, Cai'er was the most capable.
Cheng Feng reassured Cai'er: "It's alright. I've already told you the general situation. When the time comes, just do it.
Buy two residences, hire a few maids, and arrange for some cleaning. That's all.
One day is enough.
Tomorrow, we'll all be reunited."
The wives and concubines beside her also offered comfort.
Zhao Wei: "Don't worry, Sister Cai'er. With me here, I'll ensure your safety."
"That's right. With Sister Wei and me here, we'll keep you safe, Sister Cai'er. You can arrange things with peace of mind."
The other sisters naturally teased, "Sister Cai'er, remember to arrange a nice courtyard for me!"
"That's right, that's right. One with a bigger bed."
"Hahaha, you little vixen, what do you need a big bed for?"
"Mind your own business. Don't you want one?"
Watching them bickering and joking, Cai'er felt her anxiety lessen.
She had never left Qingxi County since she was a child!
Cai'er was about to say something when Cheng Feng waved his hand and said, "It's getting late. Let's set off. Cai'er, I believe in you."
Seeing her master trust her so much, Cai'er didn't say anything more.
She gave a gentle curtsy and turned to walk towards the carriage.
Several maids at the Skin Refinement stage followed closely behind.
They were about to leave the Cheng residence quietly under the guise of a trip.
Outside the city, Cheng Yi, dressed in close-fitting attire, stood before the Solar Ship, his eyes like torches, waiting for the team to arrive.
As the group converged, the Solar Ship slowly ascended, heading straight for the Blackwood Manor.
Money and supplies had already been prepared, and the Hong Sect's hidden forces were quietly mobilized.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner under Cheng Feng's careful planning.
At the same time, within the Lin family's mansion, Lin Bai, the elder in charge of the Lin family's business,
was sitting in his study, his fingers gently tapping on the table, his eyes gleaming.
He hadn't slept all night, but he was still energetic.
The Lin family was currently at a critical juncture, and every step required caution.
However, for the sake of the Lin family's future, he had to burn the midnight oil to come up with the best plan of action.
"Someone, release the news that the Lin family has found a new way to make money and urgently needs to recover funds, and is willing to trade some of the Lin family's fixed assets."
Lin Bai's voice was old and powerful, as if every word contained irresistible force.
His subordinate heard this and immediately obeyed the order.
Soon after, this news spread like wildfire among the small and medium-sized forces.
For a time, various forces moved upon hearing the news, and began to inquire about the Lin family's specific intentions.
Some speculated that the Lin family had encountered some difficult problems and urgently needed funds to get out of trouble;
others believed that the Lin family was secretly planning a major transaction.
Regardless of the speculation, it was enough to make people interested in the Lin family's movements.
And behind all of this, Cheng Feng and Lin Xiong just wanted to protect themselves.
When the nest is overturned, can the eggs remain intact?
Running is the only way out.
Just as the small and medium-sized forces were discussing the Lin family's news and speculating about it,
in Cheng Feng's mansion, Cheng Feng and Lin Xiong were sitting opposite each other in a secret room.
Lin Xiong's upper body was covered with silver needles, his face was pale but his eyes were firm.
Cheng Feng on the side was carefully adjusting the position of the silver needles,
and sharp-eyed people could even see the residual hot blood energy at the tail of the silver needles.
Sweat dripped down his forehead, indicating that the treatment was not easy.
Lin Wan'er looked at the scene in front of her, feeling anxious.
But she still didn't make any sound.
After Cheng Feng finished and showed a relaxed expression,
Lin Wan'er couldn't wait to say: "Dad, do you really have to go?
Cheng Feng can also send someone to the family to inform them."
Lin Xiong smiled and shook his head: "Wan'er, Father knows you're worried about me.
But as the head of the Lin family, how can I shrink back at this critical moment?
Although Virtuous Nephew Cheng can help me, I still want to rely on myself to help the Lin family get through this crisis.
It's already fortunate to get the news in advance."
Cheng Feng packed up on the side, and didn't reply.
Looking at this scene, Lin Xiong nodded secretly: "Not arrogant or impetuous, calm and composed, he is a potential stock."
After finishing packing the silver needles, Cheng Feng looked at Lin Xiong and said: "Has Uncle thought about it?"
Then a touch of determination flashed in his eyes: "That's right, as long as my Lin family can transfer the family's important assets before they react, we can preserve the Lin family's foundation. As for those rumors, there will be a time to clarify them in the future."
"Okay, then I, as a junior, have nothing to say. I'll see Uncle off."
"It's okay, your medical skills have helped me a lot by treating me.
I'll take care of the rest!"
The two looked at Lin Wan'er next to them tacitly and nodded.
Cheng Feng understood in his heart that this seemingly simple asset transfer was actually a race against time, and a slight mistake could lead to complete failure.
Outside, as the news of the Lin family's "sale of assets" spread wider and wider, some forces that had originally adopted a wait-and-see attitude also began to stir.
They contacted the Lin family overtly or covertly, trying to get a share of this possible feast. And this was exactly what Lin Xiong wanted.
"Report, Elder, three forces have clearly expressed their willingness to take over some of our assets, and the price is also relatively reasonable."
A confidant hurried into the Lin family and reported the latest progress.
Lin Bai's mouth curled up in a barely perceptible smile, then quickly returned to calm: "Very good, continue to deal with them,
but remember not to reveal our true purpose.
At the same time, speed up the progress of asset transfer, and be sure to complete all the arrangements within half a day."
According to the Patriarch's request, this was already the limit of what Lin Bai could do.
Lin Bai stroked his beard, feeling slightly heavy in his heart.
"Qingxi County, I'm about to leave!"
