Seeing that Lin Yu was interested in Huo Yushuang, Qin Tian and Zhou Yang shook their heads behind him.
However, at this mont, Lin Yu was awkwardly standing there.
Qin Tian thought for a mont and sighed once again.
Forget it. For the sake of Old Master Huo, I won’t mind.
For the sake of the second brother, I’ll pay the hundred thousand US dollars.
Qin Tian had never seen Lin Yu put in so much effort before.
Qin Tian stood up and said to Huo Donglin, "Old Master, Lin Yu’s words are my words. We are brothers. Yes, when we were in Dragon Soul, you helped us brothers a lot. Now, we should show so gratitude. Regarding the hundred thousand US dollars fee for the Huo Family rcenary Team to join the association, War Dragon will cover it."
Qin Tian’s words were all nonsense. When they were in Dragon Soul, Huo Donglin indeed treated Qin Tian and his brothers well, but he never really helped them much, only bringing so gifts each visit at best.
However, the gifts from those years, and now the hundred thousand US dollars, Qin Tian regarded it as a heavy gratitude repaynt.
"Little Qin, this is too much... I really didn’t help you much before."
Huo Donglin actually didn’t want Qin Tian to directly give the hundred thousand dollars; his intention was to borrow money.
Seeing this, Qin Tian waved his hand directly, laughing, "Old Master, now that War Dragon has grown bigger, we are also mbers of the Presidium of the Asian rcenary Association. Do you think we care about a hundred thousand US dollars?"
Seeing Huo Donglin’s silence, Qin Tian continued, "How about this, we will advance the hundred thousand dollars. Once your Huo Family rcenary Team joins the association, we can cooperate as before. When we cooperate, we’ll count the hundred thousand dollars in, how about that?"
After hearing Qin Tian’s words, Huo Donglin was finally speechless.
He gave Qin Tian a thumbs up, smiling, "I didn’t see it coming, Little Qin. After these years, you can really handle things on your own now. I’m impressed by the way you handled it. Thank you."
While speaking, Huo Donglin also politely bowed slightly to Qin Tian.
On the side, Huo Yushuang still stood there arrogantly, as if War Dragon owed her a million dollars, with no expression at all.
Seeing the father-daughter duo’s completely different behaviors, Qin Tian, Zhou Yang, and Xiao Zhuang were speechless.
The three of them could also see that Lin Yu was interested in Huo Yushuang, each thinking that if Lin Yu really caught Huo Yushuang... damn, wouldn’t War Dragon be turned upside down by her?
However, Qin Tian knew very well that in the realm of flirting, Lin Yu was just a novice.
Facing a woman like Huo Yushuang, who had a heart of iron, it was almost an impossible mission for Lin Yu to win her over.
Of course, he also very much hoped that the mission would never be completed.
Originally, Qin Tian thought that by agreeing to give the hundred thousand dollars, the matter would end there.
But the truth far exceeded Qin Tian’s expectations.
Just as they sat down and took a couple of sips of tea, after Qin Tian asked about the recent circumstances of the Huo Family rcenary Team, Huo Donglin furrowed his brows again, with a pleading look in his eyes, staring at Qin Tian.
At this mont, Huo Donglin’s deanor was vastly different from before.
It was clearly apparent that this matter was very serious, to the point where Huo Donglin found it difficult to speak.
Seeing this situation, Qin Tian was hesitant to ask for specifics. War Dragon could help with small issues, but for significant matters, War Dragon could not ignore its own interests and unconditionally help the Huo Family rcenary Team.
"Old Master, what’s the matter? You look very troubled?"
Just when Qin Tian hesitated on how to break the silence, Lin Yu unexpectedly spoke.
And he said the words Qin Tian least wanted to say.
With that sentence, should they help or not?
Qin Tian glanced at Zhou Yang, and both felt helpless.
This Lin Yu, you’re just too honest. Huo Yushuang has no interest in you at all, and you’re so proactive... it’s not good.
However, Lin Yu’s issue is their brother’s issue, and since Lin Yu asked, Qin Tian could only follow with a smiling inquiry, "The Huo Family rcenary Team, haven’t they encountered so trouble? With you in charge, I don’t think that’s possible..."
"Indeed, we have encountered trouble."
Before Qin Tian finished speaking, Huo Donglin interjected.
He scanned Qin Tian and the others, then shook his head and sighed, saying, "Little Qin, to be honest, this ti I’ve co to you presumptuously mainly to ask... it’s a request, asking you to help with this matter. This issue concerns the survival of the Huo Family rcenary Team."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian and the others were stunned.
It concerns the survival of the Huo Family rcenary Team? So serious?
Huo Donglin continued, "As I ntioned before, after we moved the Huo Family rcenary Team to Indonesia, we ran into the local gang. Unexpectedly, that gang called ’Fire Howl Party’ far exceeded my expectations. They have hundreds of people and, seeing us as new outsiders, imdiately targeted us."
"Not only did they rob our business, but they also demanded protection fees, secretly threatened the mbers of our team. Our team had clashed with them no less than ten tis, every ti... cough cough, we didn’t gain any advantage."
"If it were just that, it would be fine. At worst, we could just move again. But I don’t know how their Fire Howl Party got such accurate information, they knew I had a priceless jade Buddha, which I showed you before, the Huo Family heirloom."
The Huo Family jade Buddha was indeed seen once by Qin Tian and his brothers when they were in Dragon Soul. It was truly a treasure worth at least hundreds of millions and the heirloom of the Huo Family.
Hearing this, Qin Tian nodded and thought of sothing, asking, "So the Fire Howl Party wants to steal the Huo Family jade Buddha?"
"Yes."
Huo Donglin nodded and continued, "The Fire Howl Party used both coercion and temptation, various threats and inducents, but Little Qin, you know that the Huo Family jade Buddha is integral to our Huo Family, our heirloom, and cannot be given to outsiders. So, I repeatedly thwarted the Fire Howl Party’s sches, and then..."
"Alas, then, the Fire Howl Party sohow hired many expert fighters, and while Yun Shuang and I were away on a mission, they kidnapped all forty-three of our team mbers at the base."
"That wasn’t all. When Yun Shuang and I returned with our task team mbers, we fell into their trap and broke out in a fight. Only Yun Shuang and I escaped, and the other nineteen mbers were killed. They were all ambushed and shot to death by the Fire Howl Party!"
