Lin Tianming nodded at the statement, his mind having made rough estimates quite early.
After all, the seven mountain ranges of the Wei Kingdom were not far from the Lin Family Clan Grounds, and the interactions between them were rather frequent.
Therefore, the Lin Family had captured rough numbers and detailed intelligence on how many family powers within these mountain ranges—which had long been part of the Wei Kingdom's territory—existed.
Setting aside a portion of families that had migrated away, the Lin Family could calculate about how many remained in their original places, willing to accept the Lin Family's protection.
As for the five mountain ranges handed over by the Qingyun Sect, although there were quite a few families that had moved away—a much higher proportion than in the Qianchuan Mountain Range—it was not as easy to calculate.
