Talented but not rich should be the current situation of these three people. In fact, it is also the current situation of many people in the world. They have worked hard through their youth and hard study to get full of talents, but they lack the means to turn their talents into wealth.
.....
It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Lin Fengjin now wants these three people to adapt to this luxurious life. Then, they are destined to be unable to maintain such a life, so they can only live in the future.
I missed it, felt melancholy and sighed for it. At that time, Lin Fengjin felt that he had a good chance of recruiting one of them...
After the lessons of the three aunts, Lin Fengjin felt that his family was really blank in preventing poisoning, so he had to make up for it in a timely manner and find some professional experts to plug this loophole. This was Lin Fengjin's purpose.
It's simple and straightforward, and it can even be called a conspiracy, but even if it is revealed, it is fair and honest, and there is a frankness in telling people everything.
***
Fifty-eight days after leaving Yedu, Lin Fengjin came back again.
When Lin Fengjin left, the Lin family dispatched hundreds of people from Yecheng to Xijing to deliver letters back and forth on the road, so Lin Fengjin was very aware of everything in the family.
.So when they arrived, the Lin family specially organized a welcome ceremony at the entrance of the mansion. The family's servants and maids stood in two rows to welcome the guests, and Mr. Lin was in the middle to greet them.
This kind of thing shocked the three people who came with me so much that they were at a loss. They even rubbed their hands and didn't know what to say. I guess they had never experienced such a solemn courtesy in their lives!
To be honest, these three people were not good birds in the first half of their lives. It can be said that the total number of people they killed was at least three digits. However, being received by Lin Fengjin in such a grand manner made people's hearts full of flesh.
Well, they actually all had a feeling of guilt in their hearts, worrying about gains and losses for fear of not being able to see the disease well.
Next, naturally, three people went to see a doctor, and what these three people did after they went in was very strange. The maid next to them whispered that they looked like cripples, handymen, or gardeners, but they just...
Not like a doctor.
After all, what the doctor had to do was to observe, hear, and inquire. Lao Lan seemed to just be in a daze in front of the bedroom of the three sick aunts for a while, and then suddenly asked someone to move the carpet, and lit some firewood at the door of the magnificent Lin family's bedroom.
An earthen pot was boiled with water, and half a piece of meat was thrown away to make soup for the three aunts to drink. Then they sat there in a daze, waiting for half a bag of cigarettes before leaving.
Hei Lao San seemed to be even more distracted. After looking at the house where the three aunts lived, he ran to the small garden behind the house.
This small garden is very delicate and has been carefully taken care of by the gardener. The branches are all uneven and scattered, just like a picture scroll. At this time, there are even more flowers inside, with colorful flowers blooming. It costs at least a minimum of money to buy this garden.
One to twenty thousand silver.
What this Black Lao San did made the gardener even more outraged. He uprooted every flower and plant, then took a look at it and threw it away... If Lin Fengjin hadn't invited them in, what about next to it?
Everyone must have thought that a madman was coming to cause havoc.
As for Xie Laizi, it was even more strange. He grabbed someone and asked him where the toilet was. They thought he was going to go to the toilet for convenience. But after going there, he stood still when he came back. Mr. Lin went out to ask him to see a doctor. Thank you.
The lame man was a little distracted. After shouting a few times, he came back to his senses and said:
"Oh, I saw it."
The maid and servant next to him suddenly burst into tears. They murmured in their hearts whether the young master had been deceived. He invited three people back in such a grand manner. He must not be a liar in the world.
At this time, Lin Fengjin first walked to the pile of ashes in front of the three aunts' door. After smelling it, a look of shock appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but look at Lao Lan and said:
"This, this firewood refers to the star wood?"
Hearing Lin Fengjin say the word "Xingmu", Lao Lan's face suddenly changed and he said curiously:
"Young master is really knowledgeable and has a strong memory. He even knows the dirty tricks like ours."
Lin Fengjin shook his head seriously and said:
"There is no distinction between good and evil in magic. What is good and evil is the person who performs the magic. It is said that the star tree is produced in the bay on the southern coast. When the tide is high, it forms algae under the water, and when the tide is low, it grows on the ground.
It is a tree that is said to be immortal for thousands of years, and its young shoots will always point to the North Star. Previously, Mr. Lan lit a fire at my mother's door to make medicine, probably to let the smoke of the star tree penetrate into it and make incense to appease the poisonous insects in their bodies. As for the rest,
There is a deep meaning in his actions, but I don’t know it anymore.”
Lao Lan smiled and said:
"Actually, it's nothing. That piece of meat is Tai Sui polyp. I have specially refined it. If I make soup with it and drink it, it can make the voodoos sleep peacefully. Some voodoos are psychic and can understand people's speech, so I use this
The gadget makes them quiet and gradually enter a dormant state, and then we can further determine the condition."
Hei Laosan said dullly:
"What I'm most afraid of at the moment is that after this Gu insect gets enough life essence and turns into a great saint, it will be uncontrollable. Once the Gu insect shows signs of transformation in this direction, the unique smell will definitely attract people.
A large number of amber flying ants, which are not common, but they like to build nests and lay eggs at the roots of nearby flowers and trees...'
When Hei Laosan said this, there was no need to elaborate on the reason. Xie Laizi said:
"I have been to Yedu before, and I know that every morning here people come to collect night incense to fertilize the fields, so the three ladies' defecation and other things should be dumped in the same toilet with the others? This will make it easier to transport it out. If that
Poison has become a climate, and its eggs will also be excreted with defecation. The maggots in the latrine have no chance of surviving because of the presence of these eggs. I just went to the latrine to take a look and found the number of maggots.
It's pretty normal, so... the situation isn't too bad."
When these words came out, not to mention the other servants, even Mr. Lin was dumbfounded. After a while, he said anxiously:
"Please take a seat, please take a seat!"
However, these three people shook their heads and declined. The three of them found a random place, squatted down and touched their heads to tally up the crops. It looked exactly like a few old farmers in the northwest who had nothing to do, squatting in the ground to tally up this year's crops.
Like the harvest, he was also writing and drawing on the ground with branches, and finally said to Lin Fengjin:
"After the sea beast essence that the young master fed that day was absorbed by the Gu, we really don't know what the Gu mother will become, so we have to observe it for three days, and we will definitely be able to draw a conclusion after three days.
.”
Lin Fengjin was very happy after hearing this. The mature and prudent performance of these three people was very much to his liking. In fact, human life is at stake, and there cannot be any mistakes or mistakes. In short, the current condition is relatively stable, and there is no need to take risks.
category, so seeking stability is the best way to deal with it.
It seems that Mr. Lin is also quite satisfied with the performance of these three people. Although Mr. Lin is now pampered and getting fatter and fatter, his early eyesight and other things are still there. The fierce, evil and cold temperament of these three people,
No matter how hard it is built, it cannot be built down. If it were twenty years ago, Mr. Lin would have gone bankrupt and felt that such people could not be kept.
But at this time, he could also see that these three people were clearly determined and wanted to live a good life, so they directly recruited them without communicating with Lin Fengjin. When they were busy, they directly asked the housekeeper to take care of them.
Three gold-gilded red envelopes were presented to each of them with a smile.
Lao Lan and the other three hurriedly said no, but Mr. Lin just smiled and said nothing. When he finally opened it, he saw that the three of them had changed their expressions and said anxiously:
"Master, you are too kind. This gift is too heavy."
***
It turns out that when the Lin family first arrived in Yecheng, their reputation was not well-known, so they spent a lot of money to buy a house in Tianshui Lane here.
There is a saying that birds of a feather flock together, and there is also a saying that dragons do not live with snakes. Generally, wealthy families and officials and gentry are located in the north city, and the bigger the officials are, the closer they are to the north.
Why? Because the imperial palace at that time was in the north. The closer it was to the king, the more awesome it was. The further away from the king, the more humble it was.
The location of Tianshui Lane is exactly at the boundary between the north and south cities, which means that the people living there are all well-off citizens, officials and minor officials, and some officials even set up their residences here.
At this time, as Lin Fengjin's status in front of Lu Yu was gradually exposed, the status of the Lin family also increased. The prefect of Yecheng was okay, he was changed every three years, but those Kong Cao and officials were not.
I want to work here for the rest of my life.
As the saying goes, officials are as pure as water and officials as slippery as oil. These local ghosts especially know Lin Fengjin's weight and his methods. They know that this master is a true god. The most damning thing is the age of Mr. Lin.
His mother is much younger than her own son!
These middle and lower-level officials judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. They are worried that the Lin family's previous house purchase was not satisfactory, and as a result, they will offend the Lin family. Once Lin Fengjin and his elders take it into their hearts, it may bring disaster to three generations! So!
I have been busy coming here to flatter you, and told Mr. Lin that there are several houses in Beicheng that are currently for sale, and asked if your family is interested.
Mr. Lin was immediately moved, but what he was most concerned about now was Lin Fengjin's future, so he came to discuss with Lin Fengjin. As a result, after some discussion, the father and son only bought a small house in Beicheng for socializing.
The banquet was enough, but I made a request, saying that I was quite comfortable living here and my family would not move. It was just that the house was too small and I wanted to expand it...
