The days passed by, and time passed quickly. Seeing that the old man was getting better, he began to force Lin Fengjin to pack his bags and prepare to go to the academy for further studies. Lin Fengjin was helpless. In fact, he originally wanted to take advantage of the geographical advantage.
Stay here for a few more months and take advantage of the full moon night to find prey with the same destiny as Youmi. However, Lin Yuanwai's father's orders cannot be violated, so he can only obey them honestly.
But at this time, an unexpected incident suddenly occurred: Wu Yuanwai, the leader of the local chamber of commerce and the largest salt merchant in the area, and the head of the third shift of the Yamen suddenly came to visit. As the saying goes, a weasel can give a rooster a New Year greeting.
What kind of intentions are there? So Lin Fengjin kept an eye out in advance.
Lin Yuanwai just thought he was here to inquire about the situation in Hecang City, so he didn't think much about it and ordered to be picked up in the living room. The guests and the host sat down and made tea. As expected, the question he asked about Hecang City gradually became more and more important.
Then he started to turn to how the Lin Mansion's bodyguards could defeat the elites of the Central Tang Dynasty.
In this regard, the Lin family had laid an ambush. Lin Yuanwai was struggling to deal with it, and managed to avoid exposing any flaws. Unexpectedly, Wu Yuanwai suddenly took out something and placed it on the table. Lin Yuanwai picked it up and took a look.
, it’s actually a house deed! And it’s the house deed next to his grain shop!
He had wanted to buy the shop next to him a long time ago and expand it into a large grain shop, but the owner next door refused to sell it even if he paid twice the price, so it has always been a pity. Unexpectedly, Wu Yuanwai actually took it today.
The most important thing about receiving such a generous gift is that he came with the leader of the third class!
To be honest, the energy that this combination can generate in a county can be said to be no less than that of the county magistrate. Even some things that the county magistrate cannot do, this combination can easily accomplish------
——But after such a combination came to our door, they were actually willing to give out a shop on a popular street in the county as a gift! What they wanted to pursue must be no small matter.
Therefore, Lin Yuwai's fat face had a smile that could be said to be cunning or a philistine. He pressed his finger on the house deed, then pressed it with nostalgia, and then pointed it at Wu firmly.
The member sent it:
"You're too polite, old lady. As the saying goes, no reward comes without merit. I can't accept this."
The corners of Wu Yuanwai’s wrinkled eyes narrowed, and then he laughed:
"To be honest, when we come here this time, we do have some things to trouble your house, so Lin Xiandi doesn't have to worry about anything, just accept it, otherwise, the old man's words will really be unspeakable."
When Lin heard this, he hurriedly dialed out the house deed as if he had been handed a hot potato. How could he not know the powerful relationship? He immediately shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"To be honest, although I survived the disaster at the hands of those bastards from the Tang Dynasty, I still have a few broken ribs. I'm afraid that Wu Weng's matter is really full of ambition but not enough strength."
But at this time, the leader Yang next to him suddenly said in a strange manner:
"Sometimes, it is convenient for you to be convenient for others. Why didn't Mr. Lin just listen to what Wu Weng had to say?"
This is the most annoying thing about Lin Yuanwai. He may not have less money than Wu Yuanwai, but Yang Bantou is a local snake. He may not be able to make your business prosperous, but he can definitely make you destitute! Being a businessman is the most troublesome.
But we have to deal with people like that. When Class Leader Yang spoke, Lin Yuanwai could only smile bitterly:
"Want to hear the details."
It turns out that Wu County Magistrate of the local Huishui County has been re-elected here for two full terms. Because he always got a middle grade in the evaluation, he has been an official for twenty years and has always been a seventh-grade county magistrate. The reason is the above-mentioned magistrate.
The relationship with him has always been tense.
This time, when the great criticism was imminent, Magistrate Wu found a new way, which was to get acquainted with Wu Kai, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, as a member of his family.
The Ministry of Personnel is a place that is in charge of the promotion of officials in the entire country. Even if the minister is not a minister, it still has a great influence on the promotion of the officials below. So as long as Wu Kai is willing to take action and Wu County Magistrate's own qualifications and political achievements are up to standard,
For Wu Kai, it is also a risk-free effort.
The question is why Wu Kai helped him.
It’s hard work with just a raise of hands!
For Wu Kai, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, deciding on this promotion is like doing a single-choice question with more than ten alternatives. Which answer is chosen among the ten alternatives is reasonable and legal. Although Magistrate Wu
He is also part of the answer to this multiple-choice question, but you have to give Minister Wu Kai a reason to choose him.
So Magistrate Wu planned to give him this reason - a generous gift worth two thousand silver taels, plus Magistrate Wu's collection: a picture of residence in Fuchun Mountain - I believe this
I have been able to persuade Minister Wu Kai very well.
So the current problem is how to send this reason to Xiangfan in a covert manner.
Because the relationship with the magistrate is very tense, don’t even think about using the power of the government for personal benefit. Then you can only secretly send it, but now we are still in the aftermath of the troubled times, and there are groups of thieves, and it is inevitable that there are other hostile countries behind it.
Support and support, so this approach is also unsafe. Originally, taking the water route should have been the best option, but unfortunately, as soon as Hecang fell into the hands of the people of the Middle Tang Dynasty, the water route immediately became the next best option.
So it was time for the merchants in Huishui County to share their worries with the county. The Chamber of Commerce suggested that all merchants unite and form a large caravan heading to Xiangdu (Xiangfan). Each merchant would send his own bodyguard or servant
Select some people from the elite to participate. In this way, you can not only build a large business group before the year, but also help the county officials share their worries.
It happened that at this time, the Lin family's servants and guards were so capable that even the soldiers of the Central Tang Dynasty could fight with them, so it was natural that they had to come over to invite people. The store contract was because the Lin family's grain merchants were in Xiangdu.
It is difficult to make a profit on this trade route to Backwater County.
When Lin Yuanwai heard that they had moved out the county magistrate's sign and the land deed for the shop they had long sought, he was already moved. After thinking about it, he nodded and agreed. But it was at this time that Team Leader Yang really
Speak out your intentions:
"This time, you are all doing your best to serve the county magistrate. Wu Weng's son-in-law, He Guanren, is also going. I heard that the bodyguard of your mansion, nicknamed General Li, is a first-class talent, so I will definitely go this time.
You won’t miss it, right? I heard that your master is also wise and courageous, why don’t young people take this opportunity to gain some knowledge?”
Lin Yuanwai was suddenly stunned, and immediately realized that this was probably a plan of the county magistrate because he was afraid that the wealthy businessmen would not try their best, so he must ask for an immediate relative to be brought along. In this case, the personnel sent out would not only be carefully selected, but also
He would definitely not be perfunctory, but he was very precious to his son, and immediately his face darkened and he said solemnly:
"This matter needs long-term consideration! My Lin family is just staying in Huishui for a while. To be honest, the feng shui of my shop is not good. I will only lose money but not make money. I have invited people from the dental shop to come and see it. I don't know when.
It’s about to be sold.”
Lin Yuanwai was also worried at this time, and the meaning of his words was also obvious. Although it was a good choice to take root in Huishui, he had no taboos as he had just moved here, and he did not necessarily have to stay in Huishui County.
If you are anxious, just sell the shop and leave. The Lin family's business routes extend in all directions. As long as you leave this place, the county magistrate is just a "Hundred Miles Marquis". No matter how angry you are, you can't reach out to other counties to "get it."
"Jie" to punish people.
After listening to Lin Yuanwai's words, Wu Yuanwai and Yang Bantou suddenly became a little uneasy. If they were really forced to leave, it would really be a lose-lose situation. The Wu County Magistrate was a bit old-fashioned, so the business in the county
It is not developed. In terms of big families, there are only two or three that can compare with the Lin family, and most of them do not have the Lin family's escort servants who travel all over the country, so they hurriedly used words to stabilize Lin Yuanwai. However, although Lin Yuanwai seems to be easy to talk to, once his three generations are involved,
The only son of Shan Chuan is a stubborn donkey who has nothing to talk about.
Just when both sides were in a stalemate, Lin Fengjin suddenly walked in from the front door. In fact, he had been eavesdropping from behind for a long time. He already had a general understanding of the whole thing and walked out with a plan in mind.
smiled and said:
"Dad, your injury hasn't healed yet. Auntie said you should go in and drink medicine. I'm here to entertain the two uncles first."
At this time, Lin Fengjin, as the only successor of the Lin family, came out to socialize, which was not rude. Lin Yuanwai was just happy to get out of this embarrassing atmosphere, so he complained and left. Wu Yuanwai and Team Leader Yang also
I almost felt that I could feel some pulses outside the forest, and wanted to go back to continue the discussion. Both parties wanted to break up, so they stood up and left.
Lin Fengjin saw people off at the door on behalf of his father, and suddenly smiled at Wu Yuanwai and Team Leader Yang:
"If the two uncles are willing to agree to two things, then the matter of having a baby in my family can be settled."
Old Man Wu frowned and was about to speak, but a cunning light flashed in the eyes of Team Leader Yang and said:
"My dear nephew, are you serious about this?"
But Team Leader Yang is used to working in the yamen, and has done many things to induce confessions. As long as he gets the things written in black and white, he has done many things like lifting his pants and not recognizing people. Naturally, there are a hundred ways to make people unable to regret it.
Lin Fengjin smiled and said:
"Yes, do you two uncles want to listen to my two conditions?"
Old Man Wu frowned and said:
"You tell me."
