Lin Zhu stopped moving his hand so as not to disturb Yaoyue.

As Yaoyue sensed the Limitless Bright Jade True Essence flowing from Lin Zhu, the speed at which her own cultivation technique circulated increased.

She knew Lin Zhu was helping her, and she felt incredibly sweet inside.

So much so that she didn't care that he was going out with Wanwan the next day.

Happy times are always fleeting.

Early in the morning, the clouds cleared and the rain stopped, and the air was fresh.

Inside, Yaoyue generously straightened her clothes in front of Lin Zhu, then lowered her head and kissed the corner of Lin Zhu's mouth. "Get up, or Wanwan will get impatient."

The two pushed open the door, and in the courtyard, Wang Yuyan, Lianxing, and Wanwan watched the two calmly emerge.

I want to say something, but I don't know how.

Wanwan did this before, but Wang Yuyan was the first.

As for Lianxing, that's her older sister Yaoyue. How could she dare to say anything?

Chapter 342 Fishing

Lin Zhu and Wanwan left Xiuyu Valley by flying away on their swords.

The big dumpling stayed here, and the bamboo forests in the mountains served as its granaries.

Summer bamboo shoots may not be as tender as spring bamboo shoots, but their flavor is still exceptional.

These days, Da Tuanzi has been sleeping and eating all the time, without having to travel hard or worry. It's been too comfortable for her.

In the air, Wanwan hugged Linzhu's waist.

This was her first time flying on a sword like this, but it didn't feel too novel. The Gongshu family's rockets had a similar effect, except they couldn't turn.

"By the way, how do you plan to find the twelve constellations? They're usually not together."

“That’s easy.” Lin Zhu already had a plan in mind. “Aren’t they notorious thieves? Do you think they’d be tempted if there were 100,000 taels of gold?”

"People die for wealth, birds die for food." Wanwan's eyes lit up. "So you plan to use 100,000 taels of gold to lure them here?"

"That's good. What do you think if we add a beautiful woman to the mix?"

Lin Zhu turned to look at Wanwan.

Wanwan hummed twice, then her expression changed, and she laughed, "So you're also bait."

I'm talking about you.

Wanwan giggled, "But you're prettier than me!"

Unable to resist, she gave Lin Zhu a quick, light touch.

Lin Zhu suppressed his impulse. Forget it, the system is watching very closely, so it's better not to retaliate.

"By the way, what are your plans?"

Lin Zhu said, "Let's go to Hanzhong first and find the Longmen Escort Agency to escort the goods."

The two flew eastward and soon arrived at the territory of Hanzhong.

Longmen Escort Agency is located in a town in Hanzhong, and its reputation is very well-known in Hanzhong.

After making inquiries, Lin Zhu and Wanwan quickly found the Longmen Escort Agency.

While Tong Boda was still alive, Longmen Escort Agency was doing very well.

However, as the head of the escort agency, he rarely went out unless there were large shipments to carry, and instead stayed at the agency to oversee operations.

Lin Zhu and Wanwan came to visit.

The servants at the gate, seeing the two men's distinguished appearances, hesitated to look them in the eye and cautiously asked, "Are you here to entrust a shipment to someone?"

"That's right, 300,000 taels of gold, transported from Hanzhong to Chengdu, with a escort fee of 15,000 taels of gold. Can you take it?"

Lin Zhu thought about it and still felt that the temptation of 100,000 gold coins was not strong enough, so he doubled the amount.

"Gulp!" Upon hearing the message Lin Zhu wanted to entrust to the镖 (bodyguard/escort), the servant hurriedly said, "Please wait a moment, gentlemen. I will go and ask the chief镖头 (head镖师, the head镖师) for instructions. Please come in first."

He respectfully invited Lin Zhu and Wanwan into the escort agency.

Inside and outside the escort agency, upon hearing that it was 300,000 taels of gold, several people's eyes changed. This was a big deal, and they quietly slipped away.

In the lobby of Longmen Escort Agency, Tong Boda looked at Lin Zhu and felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't recognize her and didn't dwell on it.

"Young Master Lin, are you sure you want to entrust this 300,000 taels of gold to our Longmen Escort Agency for transport?"

“That’s right. The shipping cost is 15,000 taels of gold. Pay 10,000 taels first, and the remaining 5,000 taels after we arrive in Chengdu. But there’s one condition.”

Lin Zhu extended one finger.

Tong Boda thought to himself, "I'm rich! Fifteen thousand taels of gold and one hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver! I don't even need to do any more escort missions."

Like father, like daughter; Tong Xiangyu loves money, and Tong Boda loves money even more.

"Ahem." He coughed twice. "Young Master Lin, please state your terms."

Lin Zhu said, "I want you to travel under the banner of the Longmen Escort Agency, making a high-profile delivery. Every time you cross a mountain, open the box and check if the gold is still there."

"What?" Tong Boda stood up abruptly. Were these two here to cause trouble? In an instant, anger rose in his heart.

"Chief镖头 (Tong镖头, a term of respect for a镖师, a镖师) should not be angry," Lin Zhu reassured him. "We will follow them in secret."

Having said that, he unleashed his aura and displayed his unparalleled strength, accidentally pressing Tong Boda down into his seat.

"What is Young Master Lin's strength?" He looked at Lin Zhu with some surprise.

"At the pinnacle, because of some matters, we need to use this gold to lure out some ruthless bandits."

Lin Zhu smiled.

Tong Boda shook his head. "There must be something fishy going on. Those bandits are very shrewd. If we were to be so high-profile, they probably wouldn't come to rob us."

Even if it's 300,000 taels of gold?

Lin Zhu didn't believe that these bandits wouldn't be tempted by 300,000 taels of gold, especially since it was just a shipment from the Longmen Escort Agency.

After we pull off this job, wouldn't it be great to go out and have a good time?

"Unless they are master thieves like the Twelve Constellations, the allure of 300,000 taels of gold is still somewhat weak for them."

Tong Boda shook his head, then nodded.

"Then it'll be one million taels. I'll give you fifty thousand taels for shipping."

Upon hearing this, Tong Boda trembled as he sat in his chair. Fifty thousand taels of gold! That's about the price of his entire Longmen Escort Agency and all its members.

"Young Master Lin, your price is enough to offer a bounty on the Twelve Zodiac Signs."

Fifty thousand taels of gold would be tempting not only to assassins like Zhongyuan Yidianhong, Jing Wuming, and Meng Xinghun, but also to renowned sects in the vicinity.

"We prefer to do it ourselves."

Lin Zhu said with a smile.

Tong Boda hesitated for a moment. Although this trip was dangerous, the potential rewards were huge!

Moreover, Lin Zhu possesses unparalleled strength, so even if the Demonic Sect's perverse and rebellious You Niao Juan were to arrive, he should be fine.

So he asked, "What if we successfully deliver the gold to Chengdu, but don't attract any bandits?"

"The 50,000 taels of gold are still yours."

Lin Zhu showed what it means to be rich and willful. What is a mere 50,000 taels of gold?

He's so rich.

Moreover, Wu Xingyun had also marked the location of the Golden City, so if they really ran out of money, there would be an inexhaustible supply there.

Of course, this is relative.

Tong Boda hardened his heart and said, "Fine, our Longmen Escort Agency will take this escort mission."

Lin Zhu said, "This matter can only be known by the three of us."

"Alright," Tong Boda agreed. "But where is this one million taels of gold?"

"Right here."

Lin Zhu waved his hand, and a hundred large boxes appeared in the backyard, filled with gold.

This was sent over in one package by Wu Xingyun. When Lin Zhu took it out like this, Tong Boda was utterly shocked.

Each box contained an average of 10,000 taels of gold, which were melted down into gold bars and stacked together.

"Chief镖师 (镖头 - a term referring to a镖师, a镖师, or镖师), open it and check it."

Tong Boda nodded, swallowed hard, opened the box, and was greeted by a dazzling golden sight.

I picked up a gold brick, weighed it in my hand, and it definitely felt like gold. The gold brick weighed a standard two pounds.

This box alone costs five hundred dollars.

All one hundred boxes were opened, and each piece was verified.

Lin Zhu took out two boxes. "This is 20,000 taels of gold, as a deposit."

Tong Boda accepted the gift and asked, "When do you two plan to depart?"

"The sooner the better," Lin Zhu continued. "Then give us the clothes of the thieves. She and I will hide among you, but we won't touch ordinary petty thieves."

"Good, good, good!" Tong Boda was overjoyed. If that was the case, this escort mission would be a free fortune!

Chapter 343 Slander! She's slandering me!

The next day, after some quick preparations, the Longmen Escort Agency assembled a team of a hundred people and set off from Hanzhong for Chengdu.

Lin Zhu and Wanwan were hiding among them, dressed in the clothes of the Tangzi soldiers.

Wanwan was very curious about how the bodyguards escorted the goods.

They not only changed their clothes, but also their appearances.

It's not a disguise technique, but rather using true energy to temporarily change one's appearance by applying it to the face.
