The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2904 Taking bribes is unacceptable; I'll take the blame!
Hearing this, Lin Chen roughly understood.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease, and a child with connections who can still cry can eat as much as they want. The Haoran Sect, this poor, unfortunate child, doesn't even have a sect leader anymore, and probably doesn't have any connections or connections, so it gets bullied.

If you ask, the answer is always the same: resources are tight. It's not that we don't want to give it to you, it's just that we can't give it to you right now. If you ask when it will be given to you, the answer is just three words: wait!
This kind of thing can happen anywhere. Lin Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Are there still many things we haven't brought back?"

Vice Sect Master Chen Shuihe nodded with a look of shame: "Yes, I've gone to handle this matter twice, and each time they said the same thing. Although we are unwilling, we dare not do anything reckless, after all, it is the War God's Mansion."

“When the sect leader was still alive, at least we knew a couple of people. After the sect leader died, we were like unwanted children…”

Lin Chen waved his hand, stopping Chen Shuihe from continuing: "No need to say anything more. If the relevant person in charge is free, they should all come with me to the War God's Mansion later. Since the application has been approved, we should get those things back."

All eyes turned to Lin Chen, their gazes filled with excitement, hope, and worry.

Lin Chen roughly understood what everyone was thinking and laughed, "This is what we deserve. Wouldn't it be perfectly justified to take it back? If they really refuse to give it to us, I'll go to the Palace Master. Can they really turn the world upside down by abusing their power?"

Lin Chen paused, then added, "No matter what I do after meeting the Palace Master, I will definitely get these things back for you."

Chi Ya, the head of the Enforcement Hall, asked worriedly, "This matter is a big deal for us, but for the Hall Master, it's a trivial matter. If you bother him with this, won't it implicate the Sect Master?"

Lin Chen understood that Chi Ya was worried about implicating him.

As I just said, I don't have a very deep relationship with Mu Tianjun. Now that we've just met, Lin Chen is bothering him with such trivial matters. Isn't that a bit embarrassing?
What if the Palace Master gets angry and starts to dislike Lin Chen as well?
Lin Chen smiled and stopped Xiong Yaxiong, Hu Yunlai and others who were echoing him: "This is indeed a small matter, but it is not a small matter either. If everyone below does this, won't the morale of the army collapse in the end?"

"With a major war looming, these unhealthy trends must be stopped, otherwise they will inevitably lead to disaster sooner or later. You just said that this trend is already very serious?"

The people at the table exchanged glances, their faces showing unease. It seemed like Lin Chen was planning something.

Chen Shuihe pondered for two seconds and said, "The place where we receive various supplies is called the Quartermaster Department. The Quartermaster Department is very large, divided into five sections, each in charge of different supplies. For example, magic weapons and refining materials are managed by the second section, while pills and medical herbs are managed by the third section. Relatively speaking, the third section is better, so we can still get about half of what we need. The second section, however, is quite chaotic..." Lin Chen smiled and asked, "Does the person in charge of the second section have connections?"

Chen Shuihe said with a wry smile, "Of course, it's said that the head of the Second Division is a relative of the wife of the First Army Corps Commander..."

Lin Chen suddenly realized: "The term 'legion commander' sounds like it has a lot of power?"

Chen Shuihe explained, "The Temple of War Gods has divided all its combat power into ten legions. They are directly under the command of Mu Tianjun. In wartime, they are equivalent to generals, and in peacetime, they are equivalent to feudal lords. They have great power."

Lin Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Are the ten legion commanders quasi-saints?"

Chen Shuihe nodded: "Yes!"

Lin Chen nodded, having roughly grasped the situation, and laughed, "Wow, they're really powerful. We can't afford to offend them. Anyway, let's just go and get what we want. As long as we get it, we don't care about anything else. After all, we're just nobody."

Someone couldn't help but ask, "What if they still refuse to give it to us?"

Lin Chen shrugged: "We'll deal with each situation individually. As long as we follow the rules and don't give the other party any excuses, that's fine. If they're unreasonable, I'll just go and complain to the Palace Master. Even if he has powerful backers, I don't think he'd be afraid of complaining to the Palace Master, would he?"

After thinking about it, everyone realized that it did make sense.

The reason we weren't given anything before was because we didn't bribe them and we didn't have connections. We just let it drag on. But now we have connections. Lin Chen was personally appointed by the Palace Master and is someone the Palace Master appreciates. If you still don't give it to us, aren't you afraid I'll complain to the Palace Master directly?

Everyone was immediately excited, after all, this was the biggest problem facing the Haoran Sect. They had been at a loss for a long time. With the war between immortals and demons getting closer and closer, they could not get supplies to arm themselves in advance. If the war really started, were they just going to go and die?
The people looked at Lin Chen with undisguised gratitude. It was only his first day here, yet he immediately took on the most difficult task without shirking any responsibility!
This sect leader seems to be quite remarkable!
If he can accomplish this, then I'm afraid no one in the entire Haoran Sect will doubt or oppose him anymore, right?
