Lin Zhan watched Liu Bang, who was still eloquently spewing nonsense to a group of dim-witted old men, and directly called Zhang Dabiao over, asking:
"Go contact those polar bears in the Siberia Special Zone and ask them if they still need people to dig potatoes. I must send this old fellow away, no matter who tries to stop me. Not even the Great Emperor can save him, I say."
Seeing that Lin Zhan was serious, Zhang Dabiao quickly nodded and said, "Marshal, I'll make arrangements right away."
After all, as a lackey... no, as a chief of staff, it was a required course to solve problems for his boss... uh, for his superior.
A few minutes later, Zhang Dabiao walked in again and nodded at Lin Zhan, saying:
"Marshal, a delegation from the Siberia Special Zone is going to survey the depths of the Siberian permafrost, and they require experts of Quasi-King level to participate."
Lin Zhan's eyes immediately lit up: "Holy crap, there's something going on here."
"Old Ancestor Liu Bang, stop your bluffing... uh, no, wait a moment before you continue chatting. We haven't finished our important business yet."
The host patted the excited Liu Bang on the face and said:
"Kid, stop your babbling for now. Zhan'er is calling you. Let's settle our business first, and then when we have time, you can come to our ancestral court, and we old fellows will have a good chat. The Ancestor will treat you to drinks then."
Liu Bang quickly nodded, his face filled with excitement:
"Thank you, Ancestor. Don't worry, Ancestor. My Liu family has good genes and a large population. My girls will definitely be able to bear children."
"That, Ancestor, I'll be going now. Our important business comes first."
Seeing that the old men from the Great Shang agreed, the dignified Founder of the Han Dynasty was overjoyed. He had finally found a big client.
"What's the hurry, kid? You seem so anxious. Can't you see I'm having a pleasant chat with your family's ancestors?"
Lin Zhan said helplessly: "Ancestors, you still have the mood to chat? I'm in a desperate situation, and I have several things that require your Liu family's help."
"First, you will lead all the Kings and armies of the Liu family back to China. Go back quietly, without any fanfare. Our home is definitely being targeted now. I've already redeployed four group armies, but I'm still uneasy. Your Liu family must help me guard the home. Besides, Xiao Ming doesn't have enough manpower, and I can't trust outsiders."
"The second matter is that our current destiny is sufficient. Please arrange for Ancestors Liu Che and Liu Xiu to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage and go directly to the ancestral court. Have Ancestor Yan guard them."
"The third matter is that something has been discovered in the depths of the Siberian permafrost. I suspect it's either a secret realm or a tomb. I originally wanted Ancestors Liu Che and Liu Xiu to go, but their advancement is crucial, so I can only trouble you, old man. You can go find Ancestor Cao Mengde. He has expertise in grave robbing."
"Tell him, aren't all these matters important? Can I trust outsiders with them? All our Great Shang people..."
Lin Zhan looked at Tie Lao San with a questioning look: "Third brother, do you have any other instructions?"
Tie Lao San chuckled and said: "Brother, I see you've recruited all our bear cubs. They're all lined up neatly. How about it, do you still want bears?"
Lin Zhan was stunned, then nodded:
"Yes, why wouldn't I? The more the merrier. Don't worry, third brother, our treatment will definitely not be lacking."
Tie Lao San said with satisfaction: "Brother, this time I've awakened all our King-level bear cubs. Besides leaving some to smelt steel in the arsenal, I'll send the rest to you. There are 3,000 of them. See how many you can support."
This time, Lin Zhan finally understood that these fat-headed and big-eared fellows wanted to come here and freeload.
However, the combat effectiveness of these iron-eating beasts was truly formidable. At the same level, one could fight two like playing a game.
Who would be foolish enough to refuse such all-around fighters who could attack, defend, and cause trouble?
Besides, he, the young master Lin, wasn't lacking in resources. Let alone 3,000 bear cubs, he could easily support ten times that number.
Lin Zhan patted Tie Lao San's shoulder and said with a smile:
"Oh my, third brother, what are you saying? It's my honor that your Tie family trusts me and entrusts your children to me. Let's not talk about anything else. As long as they are bears from your Tie family, I'll take them all. As for whether they go to the arsenal or the National Treasure Legion, let the children choose for themselves."
Tie Lao San nodded excitedly and said: "Brother, you are a straightforward person. I won't say any extra words. When you raise your flag, we brothers will help you fight to the death."
"Hahaha, third brother, you're being too polite. We're all brothers, no need for such words."
A group of people watched these two shameless rogues get together and were confused.
They were even calling themselves brothers. One of them was human but did nothing humanly, and the other was a black and white strip who sold out his elder brother. How could they be brothers?
Tie Lao San laughed along with Lin Zhan and said to Tie Lao Si:
"Fourth dog, hurry back and bring all the cubs from home to my brother. If any dare to disobey my brother, beat them to death."
