Chapter 74 After the screen, I want to take Lin Chong's dog's head
Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
This money steward doesn't come early or late, but he arrives at the right time. It's really weird.
On the day Lin Chong stabbed Gao Yanei, the housekeeper of Gao Mansion was standing nearby. He knew Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen.
If he bumps into me, what's the point?
This big thing will cause chaos.
Everything you plan from beginning to end will go wrong.
Lu Zhishen's expression changed, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Lin Chong shook his head, killing is easy, cooking is a big trouble.
Chai Jin raised his hand and pointed to the back of the room, where two screens were placed.
Without saying a word, Lin Chong hurriedly pulled Lu Zhishen, walked forward quickly, and hid behind the screen.
In this current situation, it is suddenly impossible to show up.
Chai Jin turned around, walked out of the inner room quickly, and walked to the door. He laughed and said, "Sorry, sorry, Butler Qian has come a long way, so I missed the welcome."
Butler Qian laughed, but walked straight inside: "Chai Daguan people are happy. This time we have all the wine and meat. I am also hungry. As soon as I came in, I smelled the aroma of wine and meat. I want to see what the Daguan people are eating.
Good food and wine.”
As he spoke, he walked into the inner room and looked at the food and drinks placed on the table. There were exactly three pairs of bowls and chopsticks, pouring the drinks.
The food on the wine table had obviously been moved for a long time and looked messy.
Chai Jin's face changed slightly, he coughed twice, touched his neck, and said calmly: "Since Butler Qian is here, I will ask someone to prepare some more food and wine, just in time to have some drinks with the steward."
But Butler Qian was puzzled and said: "Your Excellency, which two guests are you eating and drinking with on this table of food and wine? Why are they missing? Or are they people who are familiar with my Butler Qian? Why don't we invite them out and drink together?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became suffocating.
In the depths of the inner room, Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen steadied themselves, motionless.
This time is a matter of life and death. Once the matter is leaked, killing the Qian family is a trivial matter. This grand plan will all be overturned. It can be said that all previous efforts have been wasted and all achievements have been defeated.
That will be a heavy and irreparable loss up and down Liangshan.
Lin Chong's face tightened, and Lu Zhishen beside him was also holding his breath and concentrating.
Butler Qian is really thoughtful, and his sudden question is really weird and clever.
Chai Jin replied that if there were any mistakes and arouse the suspicion of Butler Qian, it would be a big disaster.
With no way to advance or retreat, how should we respond to this strange scene?
Chai Jin laughed loudly and said: "I am a little tired today and want to relax for a while. I am drinking with my banker and my distant nephew outside the house. They just had business to deal with, so I will drink here alone and wait for them.
I didn’t expect to neglect the housekeeper.”
"So that's it. I said it was only the high-ranking officials sitting there." Butler Qian suddenly realized, his doubts disappeared, and he smiled and said, "The nephew you are talking about is the black-faced man outside?"
"Yes, he is ugly and a stupid man. He didn't bump into the money steward, right?" Chai Jin asked hurriedly, looking concerned.
Butler Qian waved his hand and chuckled: "That's not true, it's just that your nephew is a little lazy. I saw him sitting in the shop, as if he was thinking about something, a little absent-minded."
"Hahahaha, I'm too young, I guess I'm thinking about drinking." Chai Daguan said deliberately, "That's what young people are like. If they don't enjoy the food and wine, they just don't show their happiness on their faces, so they do more things.
It’s quite a bit of neglect.”
"The official's words are right." Butler Qian said with a smile, "It seems that I came at the wrong time to disturb the official's drinking pleasure."
"No, no, Steward Qian is my noble Chai Jin. Without your recommendation, Tianxiang would not be as smooth as it is." Chai Jin shouted, "The people who come are all ignorant.
If you don't take out the drinks and food, I want to have a good drink with Butler Qian."
Butler Qian pretended to decline and said: "I respect your status as a high-ranking official. How can I have the right to drink with you?"
"Excuse me, Butler Qian and I hit it off right away. Mr. Gao is very busy with work. From now on, I will rely on Butler Qian to take care of Tianxiang's affairs. If it comes down to it, Butler Qian is the noble person of Chai." Chai Jin said.
It would be regarded as a severe hand-off.
Butler Qian was extremely happy. The high-ranking official in front of him would have been a first-class royal family hundreds of years ago.
Now, as a slave, he was on an equal footing with the descendant of the emperor.
Butler Qian was extremely happy in his heart. He spoke modestly, but his heart blossomed with joy.
Behind the screen, Lin Chong's face was gloomy. This butler was actually arrogant, domineering and extremely arrogant.
Fortunately, Chai Jin, a high-ranking official, was very alert and patient, and he managed to find an excuse to cover up the incident at the banquet table.
What a quick wit!
Anyone else would have been absolutely horrified on the spot and not sure how to answer.
It's just that this thief dared to kill his father-in-law. This grudge must one day be repaid tenfold.
Lin Chong took a deep breath and listened quietly to the sound in front of him.
Chai Jinxu and Wei Snake had their servants take away the food and serve beef and rice dishes.
"Come on, steward Qian will give you a favor today. We won't go home until we get drunk." Chai Jin simply changed the bowl to a larger one and made a toast.
Butler Qian was completely stunned, feeling that his life had reached its peak: "I am really touched by the generosity of high-ranking officials and their courtesy to virtuous and corporal officials. From now on, if you are of any use to me, just speak up."
Chai Jin didn't hesitate, clapped his hands, and saw a maid holding a tray covered with a piece of red cloth.
"Steward Qian, please take a look!" Chai Jin raised his hand to lift the red cloth head and said with a smile.
Butler Qian held the wine glass and took a look, his eyes immediately froze.
"This...this...what should I do?"
It turned out that there were two neat rows of gold ingots stacked in the tray. One ingot had the size of twelve taels, at least ten.
Hiss~~~
Butler Qian's hands couldn't help but tremble a little.
This more than one hundred taels of gold is a wealth that is overwhelming to the heavens.
"In the future, there will be many things in the small shop, and I am afraid that many things will bother Butler Qian. Butler Qian should not despise such vulgar things. You have to work hard to make money just like a tea cart." Chai Jin spoke very maturely, which sounded to Butler Qian's ears.
It's like hearing the sound of immortality.
Descendant of the royal family?
Haha, now I am Lord Gao Qiu's butler, even a descendant of the royal family has to beg him.
What a joy!
The taste of power is simply wonderful.
Butler Qian laughed loudly and pretended to be humble: "I dare not refuse the reward given by the high official. I will try my best in the future and will not let the high official down. It's just..."
Having said this, Butler Qian smiled mysteriously.
How could Chai Jin not understand? He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Steward Qian. From now on, we will make offerings every month according to this number. During the New Year, there will be even more generous gifts. I just hope that Steward Qian will take care of me."
"Easy to say, easy to talk to. Senior officials are the most cheerful people I have ever met."
Chai Jin held up the big bowl and advised, "Steward Qian, you won't come home until you're drunk!"
"Hahahaha, the high official is so generous, I will definitely sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman."
After two visits, he drank seven or eight bowls of wine. Butler Qian obviously had an unusual amount of alcohol, his face gradually turned red, and his eyes began to blur.
"High officials, slaves like us are also depressed. There are some things that we have to figure out what our superiors mean. For example, if there is a troublesome thing this time, there is no harm in telling the high officials." Butler Qian squinted his eyes.
Her face was as red as a monkey's butt.
Chai Jin's heart moved and he asked, "Steward Qian and I hit it off right away. If you have any worries, just tell me and I will keep it a secret."
"Haha, I knew that high-ranking officials are sons and grandsons of dragons. Once a word is made, it is hard to catch up." Butler Qian seemed to be showing off, "I am planning to make a big deal this time. If it is successful, I will definitely get it."
