Chapter 33 Convincing the Mayor
After Lin Cheng waved goodbye to his master and junior sister, he was ready to start selling ghost coins.

If you want something to sell well, publicity is absolutely essential.

In later generations, major businesses will spend a lot of money to hire celebrities from all walks of life to help endorse their products, because celebrities have the strongest appeal to the general public.

So in this world similar to the Republic of China, who has the strongest appeal?

The answer is, an official!
The laws during this period were not yet complete, and the local chief executive could control almost every aspect of the people's affairs, including but not limited to food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

Therefore, if Lin Cheng wanted to increase the sales of Ming coins, he would inevitably have to deal with the government.

Renjia Town does not have an officially recognized chief executive, but it does have a town mayor, Ren Wengong.

Lin Cheng still showed some respect before meeting the mayor.

Send a greeting note very formally.

Of course, ordinary people would not be able to see the mayor in this way, but fortunately, Lin Cheng had shown some strength in the previous zombie chaos.

Ren Wengong also had a little impression of Lin Cheng.

So after receiving the invitation, I considered it carefully and decided to meet this young man during afternoon tea time.

"Hey, Nephew Lin, I haven't seen you for such a long time, you are becoming more and more heroic."

Ren Wengong seemed like a kind elder. When he saw Lin Cheng, he greeted him enthusiastically, took his hand and sat on a chair, and started chatting actively.

In fact, what he said was really not a compliment. He really felt that Lin Cheng had changed a lot.

When he first met Lin Cheng, he just thought the young man looked very handsome.

Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for a month, Lin Cheng still had an air of transcendence in his body. Coupled with his handsome and extraordinary appearance, and with a little dressing up, he was the reincarnation of an immortal!
With Juncheng like this, even with just this face, he can make a living.

After being promoted to Earth Master, Lin Cheng's whole person had an extraterrestrial aura.

Lin Cheng was indifferent to this. He didn't want to be a pretty boy. How much did it matter if he was handsome or not?
After barely coping with a few sentences, Lin Cheng went directly to the topic and said:
"I came to the mayor this time to discuss something important."

At this time, the boy brought tea, and Ren Wengong took it, took a sip, and said in a neutral tone:

"Oh? I'd like to hear about it."

Hearing that Lin Cheng was asking for something from him, Ren Wengong's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.

He just saw that Lin Cheng didn't bring any gifts. Is this his attitude of asking for help?

Lin Cheng seemed not to notice Ren Wengong's dissatisfaction and continued:
"There are changes in the underworld, and the world may face a catastrophe!"

Uh?
Ren Wengong's expression suddenly changed and he looked at Lin Cheng in shock.

Has there been a change in the underworld?

real or fake?

If anyone else dared to say such words in front of him, Mr. Ren Wengong would guarantee that he would be sprayed to death with a mouthful of salt soda.

But the person who said this now was Lin Cheng. During the Zombie Rebellion, Ren Wengong also saw Lin Cheng draw talismans in the void, and then caused a violent wind.

This is a man with real skills.

What he said still has some credibility.

Of course, Ren Wengong would not believe Lin Cheng completely just because he was capable.

After all, people's hearts are separated from each other, who knows what his purpose is.

"Nephew Lin, you shouldn't tell me this. I'm just an ordinary person and I can't help you."

Ren Wengong, who didn't know the truth, decided to play it safe and didn't want to get involved for the time being.

Lin Cheng shook his head again and sighed:
"In a time of great chaos, who can stay out of it?"

"To be honest with the mayor, I went to the underworld with my master a few days ago. Even the king of hell in the tenth palace was helpless to deal with this chaos. He had no choice but to seek help from the underworld."

"My master was also hired by the underworld and is now an official dispatched by the underworld."

"Now I am entrusted by my master to come to the mayor to deal with this disaster."

Ren Wengong was so frightened that even the King of Hell couldn't control what happened.

I haven't read much, so don't lie to me.

Seeing that Ren Wengong obviously didn't believe it, Lin Cheng could only use his trump card and said calmly:

"Of course, everyone works for the underworld, so the benefits naturally go to the mayor."

When Ren Wengong heard this, he was shocked. Couldn't you have said this earlier? There are a lot of twists and turns, but you can't get to the point.

Young people are not reliable when doing things!
"I wonder what the benefits are?"

Ren Wengong asked with eyes shining.

Lin Cheng smiled and said softly:

"Gold, silver and jewels, a lovely wife and a beautiful concubine" Ren Wengong nodded excitedly when he heard this, secretly thinking that doing things in the underworld is easy.

"These things must be looked down upon by the mayor. There are greater benefits to working for us!"

Ren Wengong:...

What bastard said that I don't like him?
He asked patiently:

"I wonder what the benefit is?"

Lin Cheng smiled slightly, then stared at Ren Wengong and said seriously:

"Merits! As long as you do things for us, Lord Mayor, you will gain merits, Lord Mayor."

Lin Cheng was still waiting to talk, but Ren Wengong was not interested in listening anymore.

He shouted to the door with a foul look on his face:
"Come here, see off the guests!"

Humph, after talking for a long time, it’s not like I’m asking for my help in vain.

Merit?

Can that thing be eaten or spent?

I'm not a monk, so why do I need merit?

A group of burly men broke in, surrounded Lin Cheng, and started fighting if they disagreed.

Lin Cheng squinted his eyes and looked around, and said calmly:
"Lord Mayor, what do you mean?"

Ren Wengong said disdainfully:

"Don't think that just because you know a few tricks, you can cheat on me."

"I have seen many charlatans like you."

"Hit me! Beat me to death."

"My Lord, I want to teach this charlatan a lesson and let him know that I am not easy to deceive."

When the many burly men surrounding Lin Cheng heard this, they clasped their fingers together and looked at Lin Cheng with sinister smiles on their faces.

This pretty boy looks so handsome, he can have some fun today.

"Mr. Mayor, is there no need to discuss it?"

Lin Cheng said expressionlessly.

When all the big men heard this, they all looked at Duke Ren Wen.

"Why are you standing there in a daze? I'm telling you to fight!"

The big men no longer hesitated, rolled up their sleeves and were ready to take action.

At this moment, Lin Cheng sighed helplessly, then raised his right hand and said lightly:

"Certainly!"

hum!
For a moment, everyone present felt that their souls and bodies were separated.

They can still see and hear, but they can no longer control their physical bodies.

Ah!
Boundless fear struck their hearts. They wanted to scream and beg for mercy, only to find that they couldn't even make a sound.

With a gentle push, Lin Cheng pushed down several burly men, walked step by step in front of Ren Wengong, and said softly:

"Can we have a good talk now, Mr. Mayor?"

Ren Wengong still maintained a disdainful expression. He stood motionless and could only roll his eyes crazily to express his willingness to negotiate.

He now regrets very much why he provoked such a person.

The unknown power was the most frightening. He knew very well that someone who could immobilize him and five or six sturdy men in an instant was simply not something he could handle.

With such power, it would be easy for Lin Cheng to kill him.

As if he understood Ren Wengong's meaning, Lin Cheng released the immobilizing charm on him with a flick of his finger.

After regaining his freedom, Ren Wengong retreated crazily and did not stop until he hit a corner.

He said weepingly:

"Don't come over here, I can do whatever you want me to do."

"Please, let me go."

Lin Cheng rolled his eyes when he saw this, acting like a bully bullying a decent woman.

You have such a shoehorned face, you don’t even want to give it to me!
 I hope that readers will not be too impatient and read more until the end of the last chapter.
