"Mr. Lin, although we have known each other not long ago, I felt like we were old friends from the first moment I saw you! We are already so familiar, and to say this kind of thank you is too foreign."
Xu Nianmin had a lovely smile, and he seemed to be really close to Lin Xu.
"Haha, Mr. Xu, please arrange for someone to bring Yao Tingting over. You are busy with official duties, so I won't bother you."
Lin Xu also smiled lightly, but he didn't answer Xu Nianmin's words about "feeling like old friends at first sight".
He would never fall in love with this bottomless silverfish at first sight!
"Haha, I am indeed busy with official duties, but since Mr. Lin is here, I am not in a hurry now."
Xu Nianmin gestured to the teacup next to Lin Xu: "This is the best Tieguanyin. Mr. Lin, please try it."
"Thank you, sir."
Lin Xu thanked her but didn't touch the glass at all.
"What? Mr. Lin doesn't think I'm going to do anything with the tea, does he?"
Xu Nianmin felt worried when he saw Lin Xu not touching the cup, so he spoke with thorns.
"Master Xu is joking. You are the head of a county and the parent of hundreds of thousands of people in Jiangling. How could you do such a despicable thing? It's just that I can't get used to Tieguanyin."
Lin Xu returned the words without being soft or hard.
"hehe......"
Xu Nianmin laughed dryly. Although it was only a few words of conversation, he had already seen the sharpness of Lin Xu's words. He knew that there would be no benefit in having a verbal lawsuit with Lin Xu, so he went straight to the topic.
"Mr. Lin, how did you eliminate the Xiaoyangshan bandits?"
"Master Song asked this question last night, and I have already answered it."
"But I also want to hear what Mr. Lin has to say."
Xu Nianmin looked at Lin Xu and said.
Lin Xu glanced at Master Song and said sternly: "The common people have been suffering from the bandits for a long time! Wherever there is oppression, there is resistance! With so many common people united in their hearts, it would have been easy to annihilate more than a hundred bandits in Xiaoyangshan District.
thing!"
"hehe......"
Xu Nianmin laughed dryly and said, "What you said is absolutely true! However, I heard that the bandit leader Xu Lun ran away. Do you take it seriously?"
"Of course I take it seriously. I told Master Xu about this last night."
"Sir, you led so many villagers, like magic soldiers descending from heaven, and wiped out all the Xiaoyangshan bandits. How could you let the bandit leader go?"
Although Xu Nianmin couldn't explain it clearly, there were two words clearly expressed in his words: I don't believe it!
"The cunning rabbit has three holes. Xu Lun just took advantage of the chaos and ran away. What can I do?"
Lin Xu answered calmly.
Although he knew that what Lin Xu said was definitely a lie, Xu Nianmin couldn't tell clearly, so he changed the question again: "Sir, have you ever seized silver coins and other important things in Xiaoyang Mountain?"
"I get angry when I talk about this!"
Lin Xu slapped the handrail hard and made an angry look: "I originally thought that Xu Lun had been entrenched in Xiaoyang Mountain for ten years, not to mention a mountain of silver, he must still have thousands of taels of silver.
Yes! However, after we captured Xiaoyangshan, we only seized a few dozen taels of broken silver, which was not enough for the one hundred taels of silver I donated to Mr. Xu to suppress the bandits last time!"
"Only a few dozen taels of silver were seized? How is that possible!"
Xu Nianmin shook his head and couldn't stop laughing. Lin Xu's words were too false!
