Chapter 697 Northern Gate Ling Sister, Southern Gate Overlord
"Tiantian, you can even shop on Taobao now. You're practically becoming a genius," Lin Tian exclaimed.
It must have been that Tiantian saw the big and little wives shopping on Taobao. Tiantian is so smart, just a few glances and it learned how!
Lin Tian paid for Tiantian's purchase, then after having breakfast, the doorbell rang.
Upon opening the door, he saw Wang Yuan's smiling face.
"What's up!" Lin Tian asked, inviting him into the house.
Wang Yuan said, "Big brother, do you remember I once talked to you about making money from beast fighting? Tomorrow, Cang Hai City is holding a grand beast fighting event, and they're going to select this year's King of Fighting Beasts. How about we join in for some fun and maybe make some money along the way? If we can get the Tiger Mastiff Beast to win the title of King of Fighting Beasts, that would be perfect."
"King of Fighting Beasts, huh! Your ambition isn't small at all!"
Lin Tian doused Wang Yuan with a splash of cold water, so to speak.
Although the Tiger Mastiff Beast was strong, there were always more formidable opponents out there. It had only fought a few times, but Wang Yuan was already aiming for the title of King of Fighting Beasts. That was a bit too reckless!
"Hehe," Wang Yuan scratched his head, chuckling foolishly.
"Big brother, I'm just saying. The title of King of Fighting Beasts is a bit beyond my dreams, but I can guarantee that my Tiger Mastiff Beast will definitely make it into the top five. If we win a few matches, we could make billions," he said.
The money would come from Wang Yuan, and the Tiger Mastiff Beast was also Wang Yuan's. Actually, it had nothing to do with Lin Tian.
Wang Yuan was so insistent on bringing Lin Tian along simply because he wanted a backer, someone like Lin Tian to support him at the event.
Betting billions and billions of dollars, this definitely wasn't the kind of money you could gamble openly with. Beast fighting was, in fact, an underground industry.
Those who dared to join in the beast fighting were all people with significant status, wealth, and powerful family backgrounds.
The Wang Family of Capital City, despite having swallowed up the Li Family and grown in strength, was only considered significant on the surface.
Throughout Huaxia, there were many strong hermit families hidden away. Even the Wang Family had to be wary of these clandestine clans.
Take the Guo Family, for example, which had helped the Wang Family eliminate the Ouyang Family. The Guo Family's name might not be as prominent as the Wang Family's, but they were still held in great regard, and they were not even considered a hermit family.
That was why Wang Yuan just had to drag Lin Tian along. With Lin Tian's backing, he could confidently fight and make a fortune. Moreover, this beast fighting event was all about the title of King of Fighting Beasts, so it was bound to be on a grand scale with many participants. To be safe, Wang Yuan needed Lin Tian's backing even more now.
Lin Tian nodded with a smile and then said, "I still owe the bank money now. Of course I want to make money if there's a way."
"That's great, that's great," Wang Yuan nodded happily, taking a deep breath.
"However...!" Suddenly, Lin Tian's tone shifted and Wang Yuan's expression froze.
"I can't just go with you to beast fight for nothing. How about you give me half of whatever money you win?"
Lin Tian demanded half, opening his mouth like a lion.
"Half? Why don't you just rob someone."
Wang Yuan stood up, exclaiming in shock.
He was the one putting up the money, and the Tiger Mastiff Beast he had bought for twenty billion was his investment. Lin Tian was merely tagging along to show support, and now he wanted half of the winnings.
"Fifty percent? Have you no shame?"
Lin Tian, with his foot propped up, said, "Take it or leave it, fifty percent profit. Otherwise, you won't be able to enlist the services of this 'great Buddha'. You can go by yourself, but with several hundred million at stake, it's bound to be chaotic. If you accidentally offend someone and end up dead, don't blame me."
As soon as Wang Yuan heard the word "dead", he shuddered. Going to that kind of place without someone to protect him, Wang Yuan truly didn't dare!
Between money and life, he naturally chose life. Wang Yuan had no choice but to concede and agree to Lin Tian's terms.
Such a place must be extremely dangerous; Lin Tian dared not bring his wives, both big and small.
Capital City wasn't entirely safe either. To ensure their safety, Lin Tian decided to send his wives, both big and small, back to Wu'an City.
Wu'an City was akin to a fortress, with bunkers everywhere, soldiers standing guard with guns, and even more stringent security near the apartments and companies. Only by placing them in Wu'an City could Lin Tian have peace of mind.
Four people and a dog set out for Wu'an City.
Soon, they arrived at Wu'an City. Lin Tian also left Qin Chi behind to protect his wives, both big and small.
As for Tiantian, Lin Tian had intended for Tiantian to stay with his wives, but Tiantian refused, insisting on accompanying Lin Tian. No matter how they tried to coax her, it was no use.
However, it made sense. His wives wouldn't let Tiantian eat skewers, nor drink beer, seriously limiting her pleasures. Naturally, Tiantian didn't want to stay with them.
In the end, Lin Tian could only take Tiantian with him.
Lin Tian spent almost the entire day in the car. By the time he returned to Capital City, it was already seven in the evening. Now without the restriction of his wives, big and small, Tiantian could eat to her heart's content.
The palm-sized dog gorged on five skewers, three large prawns, and half a bottle of beer. Finally, completely satisfied, Tiantian burped contentedly and fell asleep.
At about six in the morning, without any warning, Lin Tian opened his eyes.
These past few days, he had been woken up by Tiantian, and his biological clock had been set. This morning, even though Tiantian didn't call him, he still woke up.
And Tiantian, perhaps a bit tipsy from yesterday, was still sleeping soundly. After Lin Tian freshened up, Tiantian was still asleep.
Lin Tian didn't wake her. Instead, he simply held her in his arms and followed Wang Yuan to Cang Hai City, to the Beast Fighting Arena.
According to Wang Yuan's description on the road, the owner of this Beast Fighting Arena was surnamed Li, named Li Linglong, a woman. Moreover, she was a very beautiful woman, just over twenty years old. For a woman like her to run such a large and chaotic business like the Beast Fighting Arena, she must have a powerful background not to be underestimated.
Wang Yuan also had people investigate Li Linglong's background, but they found nothing. Surely, standing behind Li Linglong was a force so mighty that not even the Li Family dared to provoke.
Besides the Beast Fighting Arena, Li Linglong also owned Gambling Stone City. The scale of Gambling Stone City was no less than that of the Beast Fighting Arena, both being extremely lucrative and high-risk businesses with enormous profits.
In Cang Hai City, Li Linglong occupied half the territory. The only person who could stand equal to her was a man named Huang Batian.
Huang Batian's businesses were diverse; it could be said that aside from the Beast Fighting Arena and Gambling Stone City, Huang Batian had a hand in virtually every other industry. The fact that he could stand equal to Li Linglong clearly indicated that Huang Batian was not alone either.
Behind both of them lay formidable backgrounds.
Because Li Linglong's Gambling Stone City and the Beast Fighting Arena were both located on the north side of Cang Hai City, a saying was popular there.
"North gate's Sister Ling, south gate's Boss Ba, a call to arms, and Cang Hai trembles!"
