"Old Fourth, you have to do me a favor this time. I'm really tight on money now. Lend me 10 billion … Oh, forget it."
"What have you been up to recently, Miss Ji? Haha! I'm still the same. Can you lend me 8 billion … Ah! Alright then. "
"Young Master Ma, why haven't you come to the palace to play with me recently? Are you interested … What? You want to borrow money from me? I don't even have money for my next meal. You want to borrow money from me? No! "
Liang Chen hung up the Dimensional Universe angrily. Although he was the imperial grandson, when it came to such a huge sum of money, not many of his friends could afford it.
If it was someone with money, they might not give him face. His face was not worth that much.
"Your Highness, these are the latest wanted posters from various places. Please sign and approve them."
"Another wanted poster. I don't want to care about this. I don't want to see it." Liang Chen leaned back in his chair and refused to look.
"Your Highness, these wanted posters have been piling up for almost five years. There are almost a thousand people. The various places are quite anxious. Look …"
"What kind of bastards are on the wanted posters?"
"There's a lot of them. There are murderers, firemen, robbers … In short, there are all kinds of people. They're all great bandits. Even the heavens are angry with them. However, it's too slow to issue a warrant at the county level. So, I hope the Empire can issue a warrant."
Liang Chen rubbed his forehead. He felt a headache coming on as he looked at the pile of wanted posters on the table.
However, he was in charge of this after all. He could not just ignore it.
He thought for a moment and had an idea.
"How about this? Go and reply to the various places. They can issue a wanted poster, but they'll have to pay a fee of 1 billion. Whoever pays the fee will be the poster. Those who don't pay can wait. I'll take a look when I'm in the mood."
"Your Highness, is this appropriate? Why don't we ask the crown princess … "
"How dare you! Do you have to disturb my mother for such a small matter? I'm telling you, do as I say. Otherwise, I'll break your legs! "
The officials under him did not dare to say anything else. He was the imperial grandson. Killing them would be like killing an ant. It was better not to offend him.
As the news spread, some counties began to send money to Liang Chen.
After all, anyone who could be wanted by the Empire would definitely be guilty of heinous crimes. Although one billion was not a small amount, it was still worth it. Regardless of whether the wanted criminal could be caught or not, at least it would make His Royal Highness happy.
Liang Chen was secretly happy when he saw a billion yuan transfer appear in his card. He applauded his own ingenuity.
At the same time, he also told his subordinates that whoever had transferred the money could send out the wanted posters they had submitted.
Once he had saved up ten billion, he would immediately challenge Lin Zhen again. Liang Chen's mind was occupied with nothing but trying to recoup his losses as quickly as possible and win all of Lin Zhen's money!
*****
"This Liang Chen, he actually asked for one billion just to issue a wanted order. How greedy!"
Within Xian Le County, Lu Yang looked at the notice from above and frowned.
At this time, someone had already transferred the money to Liang Chen, but Lu Yang did not want to transfer the money so quickly.
"Gu Yunting is dead, leaving behind a mess. Everything needs money. Let's wait for things here to stabilize. Once there are profits, we can transfer money to His Highness."

After Lin Zhen and Lin Feng entered the city, they sat down in an open-air tavern near the city gate.
This kind of tavern was different from other taverns. It was built under a large tree, and the area under the tree's shade was enclosed. Above, the trees rustled, and below, the aroma of wine and food wafted. The environment was very good.
Bamboo fences separated the rooms, and one could vaguely see the situation in the rooms next door. Lin Feng walked over and could not take another step forward. He pulled Lin Zhen over to eat.
"Waiter, pick out the best wine and give our boss ten bottles! Give us ten of the best dishes! Our boss has a huge appetite! "Lin Feng said noisily.
Lin Zhen glanced at him. This brat was a typical example of a poor man suddenly becoming rich. He did not know how to show off.
"Okay ~! Coming right up! "
The waiter had seen many rich people, so he was not surprised. Soon, he served Lin Zhen and the others a table full of wine and food.
"Boss, you must be tired. Eat and drink. I think you can drink a bottle of wine without a problem," Lin Feng said as he placed a bottle of wine in front of Lin Zhen. He had nine bottles of wine on his side.
Lin Zhen didn't mind his narrow-mindedness. She observed the situation around her.
After arriving at Southern Liang, his plan was very clear. After familiarizing himself with the situation, he would go to the Alchemist Guild and obtain the qualification to become a Level 6 Alchemist. Then, he would cultivate to the Star Domain Stage in Southern Liang. After that, he would immediately go to Great Qin to find the little phoenix.
It would take him more than ten years to do all these things. There were still twenty years until the date he had agreed to meet the little phoenix. There was enough time.
Looking at the bustling crowd in Southern Liang, Lin Zhen felt a little emotional.
When he was on Earth, he thought that there were many people on Earth. Now, compared to the Primordial Realm, the people on Earth would not even make a splash in the capital city of Southern Liang.
Moreover, among the many countries in the Primordial Realm, Southern Liang was one of the smaller ones.
He did not know what the situation on Earth was like. When he was done with the little phoenix and became a World King, he could buy a Wormhole Egg and return to the New Territories to bring his family over.
Just as Lin Zhen was thinking, a voice came from the room next door.
"Deacon Feng, I'll treat you to a drink. I'll drink with you."
A crisp voice sounded. Lin Zhen felt that it was very familiar.
He turned around abruptly and saw a few people sitting together.
Sitting on the main seat was a person wearing an alchemist's robe. There were four golden stars on his chest. He was a deacon. Beside him were two Star Sector-level 9 bodyguards. It was a very imposing scene.
On the other side were three people. Two were Star Domain Stage men, one was a Level 7 martial artist, and the other was a woman in a pink dress. Her back was facing Lin Zhen as she toasted the alchemist.
Although Lin Zhen could not see her face, he recognized her at a glance.
She was actually from Earth, Zhao Xiaoman!
Lin Zhen and Zhao Xiaoman had not seen each other for eight or nine hundred years. Ever since Lin Zhen went to the Heavenly Gate, he had not seen Zhao Xiaoman again. At that time, Zhao Xiaoman was no longer on Earth. Lin Zhen did not know where she went.
He did not see her in the Heavenly Gate because Lin Zhen did not stay there for long. He had been sealed for seven hundred years.
Zhao Xiaoman might have come to the Primordial Realm when Lin Zhen was sealed.
Lin Zhen could feel the star power fluctuations on Zhao Xiaoman's body from behind. She had just passed the Nebula Stage and was now a Level 1 Region King.
This was very normal. Although Lin Zhen's cultivation was very fast now, he had been delayed for seven hundred years. It was normal for the genius warriors from back then to gradually catch up.
Just like Lin Zhen's wife, Su Mingyue, and An Ning. Lin Zhen guessed that they were probably Realm Kings now.
However, Lin Zhen did not immediately reunite with Zhao Xiaoman. She seemed to be with her friends. It seemed that the little girl from back then had a new life now.
Elder Feng held his wine glass and glanced at Zhao Xiaoman's face for a while before chuckling and drinking.
The Level 5 Star Sector-level man beside Zhao Xiaoman said, "Sister Xiaoman, this Deacon Feng is a big shot. He knows many high-ranking officials and powerful warriors. The Frost Antidote he refined is very famous on the market. It can neutralize pill poison and fire poison. Its effect is surprisingly good. You can't even buy it when you queue up."
Another Level 7 Star Sector-level also said, "Yes, although Deacon Feng is only a Deacon, he has a very high status in the Alchemist Guild. Not only is he proficient in refining pills with fire, but he also cultivates cold air. This is too rare among alchemists. Therefore, even the Guild Elders have to give face to Deacon Feng."
Zhao Xiaoman put down her wine glass, as if she was not used to the smell of wine. Then, she blinked a few times. "So powerful. You can actually cultivate both ice and fire? How did you do it, Deacon Feng? "
Deacon Feng pinched the goatee on his chin and said in a somewhat reserved manner, "Miss Xiao Man, your question is a bit abrupt. These are all secrets of alchemists that aren't passed on to others. If I tell you, would I still have a bowl of rice?"
"Don't mind it, Deacon Feng. Xiaoman hasn't been in our team for long. She's not sensible and has said something wrong. Xiaoman, hurry up and toast Deacon Feng. The pill poison in our bodies is still counting on Deacon Feng's pills to neutralize it."
Zhao Xiaoman was a little flustered. She hurriedly poured wine for Deacon Feng. Deacon Feng had a straight face and did not move for a long time.
The few of them apologized for a while. In the end, Zhao Xiaoman pinched her nose and drank three times the amount. Only then did Deacon Feng drink the wine.
Lin Zhen saw clearly from behind. The two men with Xiaoman looked a little pale. This was a sign that pill poison had entered their bodies.
In fact, there were many martial artists like this. In order to cultivate faster, they took a lot of pills. However, they did not have Lin Zhen's physique to neutralize pill poison. The pill poison in their bodies accumulated more and more.
Buying pills to neutralize pill poison was also very expensive. With the mentality of saving as much as possible, they suppressed the poison.
It was like a smoker. Smoking one or two pills was nothing. But if they had the same mentality every day, their lungs would be filled with smoke poison and they would not be able to clean it up.
Such people were mainly concentrated in the middle and lower level martial artists. For example, Zhao Xiaoman's team was obviously a team of adventurers. The two men were clearly adventurers.
They came to Deacon Feng to buy pills. They probably wanted to go through the back door and spend less money. However, Zhao Xiaoman asked them softly. Could it be that girls were easier to talk to?
Lin Zhen was a little unhappy when he saw this.
At this time, a World King behind Deacon Feng said, "Deacon Feng has recently been researching a new type of pill. Once the research is successful, he will be promoted to a fifth-grade alchemist and become an elder of the guild."
"Aiyaya! Then I'm sorry. Elder Feng, we congratulate you. Xiaoman, quickly toast Elder Feng! "
Zhao Xiaoman raised her head and said unhappily, "Do you still want to drink? But I really don't want to drink anymore. "
