Chapter 327 Wang Cheng’s visit
Chapter 327 Wang Cheng’s visit
"What handle?"
Duanmu Liangchuan asked, his heart full of joy.
What could make Lin Xiao panic and even give up his interests must be related to corruption. If he could get this information, it would be enough to destroy the Lin family.
Unexpectedly, the three major families would be suspicious of each other, leaving behind clues that could kill each other.
As long as you can find a way to get these, you can destroy them in one fell swoop.
"This……"
Lin Xiao frowned slightly when he heard this, then shook his head after a long time and said:
"Brother Duanmu, this matter is of great importance, so don't ask too much. In short, we can't break up with the Wang family. Someone, please send the Daliang jewelry I bought to Brother Duanmu's house."
Although he now relies heavily on Duanmu Liangchuan, the other party is an outsider after all. Things that are related to the survival of the family must not be let to the other party.
Unless, he can also get the handle that can kill Duanmu Liangchuan.
A servant of the Lin family walked in and saluted:
"Sir, that jewelry is expensive, and it's priceless!"
"Brother Duanmu is a great talent, but he's not worth this jewel? Get out of here!"
Lin Xiao glared angrily and said.
"Okay, sir, get out of here, little one."
Seeing this, the house slave hurriedly left.
Duanmu Liangchuan sat and watched Lin Xiao finish his play, then stood up, bowed respectfully and said:
"Thank you, Chief Lin."
……
After the banquet, Lin Xiaofan returned home.
The scouts did not run in circles today, but strode forward. As for how long he had been doing it, Lin Xiaofan didn't know. He could only see a few falling to the ground from exhaustion.
Lin Xiaofan saw the pink-clad figure sitting in the pavilion next to him, snoring, and walked up to him and asked:
"Xiao Xuan, are you really not going to kill anyone if you train like this?"
"what?"
The maid in pink wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and looked at Lin Xiaofan blankly. After a long time, he finally came to his senses. He looked at the many scouts who were still working hard and scratched his head guiltily.
"It should be fine. This is how I came here back then. Aren't I living well now?"
I think they should know how to take a break when they can't hold on any longer.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaofan shook his head slightly. It seemed that letting this girl teach others was a big hidden danger.
"I came to you this time to ask how long it will take for these people to practice? Now rogue bandits may enter Degao County at any time. Without these scouts, every village is very likely to be plundered."
Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth and preached. He didn't understand the training and didn't want to rush it. Just relying on four teams of guards to patrol is very likely to allow those rogue bandits to take advantage of the loopholes.
"Just guarding against some bandits? I thought it was a big deal."
When the maid in pink heard this, she muttered.
Lin Xiaofan rolled his eyes after hearing this.
Remember when you were looking for Zhao Shan, you seemed to have said this, right? It seems that this little girl remembers to eat all day long.
"Actually, I can take them to train outside. That way we can deal with bandits and teach them how to hide in various environments. It's the best of both worlds."
The maid in pink thought for a moment and then said.
Of course, you can also take the opportunity to go out and have some fun. Being in this courtyard every day was suffocating her.
"Okay, then you can take them out for training starting tomorrow."
Lin Xiaofan nodded slightly when he heard this.
In his opinion, training outside is always much better than training in this yard. And although Xiaoxuan is a bit lazy, her strength is definitely beyond words. With her here, there is no need to worry about any accidents.
"Well, you can take a rest."
The maid in pink clothes looked at the scouts again. Several of them had already fainted and fell to the ground, so she hurriedly spoke.
"Sir, Wang Cheng is here to visit."
A guard came quickly to announce.
"Wang Cheng? This old guy can't control his temper so quickly?"
Lin Xiaofan sneered and found him in his house in less than a day.
The leader of the other clan came to visit in person, so Lin Xiaofan naturally wanted to meet him.
"Chief of the Royal Family, please come in quickly."
Lin Xiaofan walked to the door to greet him.
When Wang Cheng saw Lin Xiaofan, he saluted with a smile on his face, then waved his hand and asked his servants to carry the heavy gift in.
"I take the liberty of visiting, and I hope that Magistrate Lin will not take offense. These are my small gifts, not respectful, and Magistrate Lin must accept them."
Several servants brought the box in and then opened some, revealing gold inside. It looks like there are three to four hundred taels at least.
Lin Xiaofan was shocked. If it were exchanged for silver, it would be three to four thousand taels. The profit of all the Wang family's properties in a year would only be this much.
Of course, their family had worked with the county magistrate to collect money from the people, and they probably saved a lot of money.
The Wang family has spent a lot of money this time. Could it be that they want to return the restaurant?
"Chief of the Royal Family, you can just come, why do you need to give such a big gift?"
Lin Xiaofan said with a smile, then waved his hand and asked the servants in the mansion to carry the box away.
"Haha, Magistrate Lin, I have something important to do with you."
Wang Cheng said with a smile.
"Come on, come on, please invite the royal family chief. Let's talk slowly."
Lin Xiaofan made a gesture of invitation.
In the guest room, Wang Cheng took a sip of tea and said with a smile:
"Magistrate Lin, I came here this time to talk to you about the restaurant. To be honest, our Wang family's main industry is concentrated in restaurants. Without this business, I'm afraid we won't be able to support our family." My son!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiaofan pretended to be puzzled and said:
"Chief Royal, we agreed before that we should each rely on our abilities. And don't worry, I, Lin Xiaofan, am an aboveboard person. Even if I can't make a penny, I will never use a fork behind your back or use my status as a county magistrate to oppress you. .”
Hearing this, Wang Cheng smiled bitterly:
"Oh, Magistrate Lin is joking. How can I, Wang Cheng, be as capable as Magistrate Lin? With Magistrate Lin's intelligence and talent, I'm afraid that within a year, my Wang family's restaurant will be unable to make ends meet."
Lin Xiaofan quickly waved his hand and said:
"Head of the Royal Family, your Wang family has a profound foundation in Degao County. How can I defeat you? But my secret recipe for cooking cost thousands of taels of gold to get. I just earned my income from those restaurants. Book."
Wang Cheng was shocked. Even if he sold all the Wang family's property, he probably wouldn't be able to get thousands of taels of gold.
From this point of view, it was impossible for Lin Xiaofan to change industries, and he could only use the method mentioned by Duanmu Liangchuan.
Thinking about it, he said:
"County Magistrate Lin, several thousand taels of gold is not a small sum. I have also seen the price of vegetables at your Zuixian Tower. If we go by this price, just relying on two Zuixian Towers, I am afraid that it will not be guaranteed for decades." I can get my money back.”
"Oh? Does the royal family leader have any good ideas?"
Lin Xiaofan was a little surprised. I thought that Wang Cheng came here this time just to beg him to hand over Zuixian Tower and do other business. Now it seems that it is not that simple.
When Wang Cheng heard this, he nodded slightly and said:
"I still have a few restaurants under my control. I wonder if County Magistrate Lin is interested?"
