With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Lin Fan monitored their bases with Greeny\'s puppets for the entire night, but he wasn\'t able to find anything.

That was because they didn\'t do anything.

They just holed themselves up in their bases and drank themselves unconscious.

While they were drinking, they didn\'t hold back complaining about the cloaked figure that they had just met. It was the same situation for both the Drowning Rat Gang and the Steel Head Gang.

Even the bosses didn\'t hold themselves back and started complaining about the cloaked figure.

But even so, not a single one of them dared to insult the cloaked figure.

It was clear by the looks in their eyes that they were too scared to do so.

Still, their complaining did give Lin Fan some information.

They complained about how it was their bad luck to meet that cloaked figure and be forced into doing things like this. Through their complaining though, Lin Fan knew just how they had come into contact with the cloaked figure.

It was the cloaked figure who had initiated contact with them by kidnapping the two bosses one day.

The bosses had been shocked to see the other person and had thought that it was the other person\'s fault that they were kidnapped. That was until they saw the cloaked figure and saw that both of them were tied up.

The cloaked figure had given them the choice of submitting or dying and of course the bosses had rejected this offer in the first place. They wouldn\'t let this clear act of coercion through force break them, even if they had been at the whims of the cloaked figure.

The cloaked figure let them go back to think this over, but they ignored the cloaked figure in the end. They chose to teach the cloaked figure a lesson by sending their men to kill this cloaked figure.

All that they received in return were the heads of all the men that they had sent to kill the cloaked figure.

These heads had been delivered to the front door of their bases for all of the men to see, so it was impossible for the bosses to hide this.

Once they knew that there was this threat to their lives, the bosses couldn\'t hold back their men anymore. 

The bosses of these gangs were only just a bit stronger than mortals, so it wasn\'t as if they ruled over these gangs with their strength. They ruled over the gangs with their cunning and intelligence.

But none of that mattered if the men feared for their lives.

Once they were afraid, they wouldn\'t listen anymore and they would lose control of their gangs. So the two of them had no choice but to listen to the demands of the cloaked figure.

That was where it all went wrong.

The cloaked figure simply gave them the order to look for remnants of the Love Sect and then disappeared. The cloaked figure had only reappeared today to get the results of the investigation from them.

And now they were stuck in this situation where they couldn\'t do anything.

The only thing that would save them was if they were able to find a trace of the Love Sect, but that was praying for a miracle.

Lin Fan just left them to wallow in their own self pity since he didn\'t care what happened to these people in the first place.

Both of these gangs already had reputations for doing evil things, so they weren\'t any good people.

If bad people wanted to deal with bad people, he wouldn\'t get involved in it.

When morning came, all of the gang members had fallen asleep from drinking all night, so they wouldn\'t be of any use to Lin Fan. He just left Greeny\'s puppets to watch over them just in case they did anything, but he didn\'t bother watching them himself anymore.

He had already gotten more than enough information from them.

So after having breakfast, he headed off with Mu Bao Bao.

They headed down the main street and into one of the business streets of the town.

This business street wasn\'t the biggest or the most prosperous in the town. It was just one of the many business streets that were scattered all over the town.

The reason they were here was because this was where Wang Mu told Lin Fan the Flying Crest Merchants were setting up.

Lin Fan could have gone to any merchant or any information seller for the information that he wanted, but he decided to come to talk to the Flying Crest Merchants again. It was all because they were traveling merchants that he had already built up a relationship with.

While he could build relationships with other traveling merchants, it would take more time than he was willing to spend. So there was no reason for him not to use this connection that he had already made.

When they had been traveling together yesterday, Lin Fan had asked them many questions, but they had been cautious with their answers. They didn\'t know Lin Fan\'s intentions back then, so they were wary towards him.

But they were much more relaxed after they had arrived in town, so Lin Fan felt that he could get some answers now.

Of course, if they weren\'t willing to tell him, Lin Fan had other ways.

Since they were merchants, that made it easy for him.

Lin Fan had plenty of money to make friends with.

Money really was the universal language in cases like this.

When they looked around, they weren\'t able to find the stall that Wang Mu said that they would set up.

Lin Fan couldn\'t even help thinking that Wang Mu had lied to him because he had been afraid of him. 

He started thinking about different ways of finding where Wang Mu\'s stall was, but before he could use those methods, there was a carriage that came over. This was a carriage that he was familiar with since he had traveled with it yesterday.

Sitting at the dashboard of the carriage was Wang Mu and the other two who had talked to Lin Fan yesterday.

When they came over, they couldn\'t help being surprised by Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao who were waiting there for them. However, they were professional merchants, so Wang Mu said with a smile, "Young master Lin, it\'s an honour to meet you again. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Lin Fan just revealed a smile and said, "I came here to check your wares like I promised yesterday."

Hearing this, Wang Mu\'s smile became even wider.

He knew that someone was powerful as Lin Fan was definitely rich, so he was happy to trade with someone like him.

Wang Mu gave a wave of his hand to the people in the carriage before he started flattering Lin Fan.

The other members of their caravan came out of the carriage and started setting up the stall. That included the kids who had come along with the rest of them.

These kids were the kids of the merchants, but unlike kids in Lin Fan\'s previous world, they had to work for a living. There wasn\'t anything like schools in this world, unless one was rich enough to go to one, so most kids worked with their parents.

But when Mu Bao Bao saw these kids, she went over with a smile on her face.

Seeing Mu Bao Bao, the parents had no choice but to let their kids go and play with her.

Lin Fan shook his head before taking out a few gold coins for her. He also handed a few gold coins to the kids who were hesitant in taking them, but they still took them after Lin Fan encouraged them and their parents gave them their approval.

After they were gone, Lin Fan took Wang Mu to the side to ask him a few questions.

As he had expected, Wang Mu was unwilling to speak at first, but that quickly changed once he took out a few more gold coins that he passed Wang Mu.

Once he saw those gold coins, Wang Mu revealed a wide smile and told Lin Fan most of the things that he asked for.

There were only a few things that he didn\'t answer, giving the excuse that they were related to his trade secrets, so he couldn\'t tell Lin Fan anything. However, the answers that he did receive was more than enough to make Lin Fan happy.

When they had finished talking, Mu Bao Bao and the kids had come back with smiles on their faces.

All of the kids had some kind of snack in one hand and they had toys in the other.

The one with the most snacks and toys in the end was Mu Bao Bao.

After they had finished talking, the merchants had also finished setting up their stall and were about to start hawking.

Since Lin Fan had said that he was here to do some shopping and he had time to spare, he went over to check out their goods with Mu Bao Bao.

He was surprised by what kind of goods they had since he had never asked them about it.

It turned out that the goods that they had brought to Flowing Mud Town this time was a batch of jewelry.

These weren\'t special jewelry and seemed to be made from common materials, but they were still enough to catch Mu Bao Bao\'s eyes.

In the end, Lin Fan bought a necklace and a jade bracelet for her.
