If you count a load of grain before the disaster and eighty cents of copper coins, you can buy 625,000 dan!
One lemon is about 120 kilograms, which is enough for a family of four to eat for a month. Then 625,000 lemons of food are enough for more than 100,000 households, that is, forty or five hundred thousand people to eat for a month.
If Lin Jingzhi really nodded, then based on the number of refugees in Luocheng that can reach 150,000, it will be almost three months old.
The victims who take refuge usually survive the winter. When they can resplant the seeds in the spring of the second year, they will return to their hometown. They only have more than four months of wandering outside, which means that 50,000 taels of silver can be used.
The purchased food can almost provide relief to all the victims in Luocheng.
So when he heard the amount of silver in Wang Meng's mouth, no one was surprised, including Lin Jingzhi. Although he was mentally prepared, he did not expect that Wang Meng would dare to speak so big.
"Hehe" he laughed in anger.
The wealthy businessmen in the hall, after a brief surprise, pondered themselves.
Some people wondered if the Lin family offended Wang Meng not long ago, so Wang Meng seized the opportunity to make things difficult for the Lin family.
Some people guessed that Wang Meng might want to take advantage of the locust plague in the north to make a fortune and embezzle silver.
Some people also guessed whether Wang Meng deliberately asked the Lin family to donate more and take a good start, and then let the rich people in the hall follow closely, and each donated 50,000 taels of silver.
The treasury is empty now. If Wang Meng can not only resettle the refugees in Luocheng, but also pay hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, then the emperor, who is in short supply, will he be happy to get the silver?
As everyone's thoughts surged, the hall calmed down again, and his eyes would occasionally sweep over Wang Meng or Lin Jingzhi, wanting to see something from it.
Jia Lin's face was pale, but he was pulled by his father who was very strict with him on weekdays, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
"What do you think of this number?" Wang Meng refused to answer after seeing Lin Jingzhi's hearing this, stroked his black beard and asked with a smile.
Zhang Xiu turned his eyes when he heard this, took a step forward, and continued: "Sir, this number is what you said, so there is no problem. Look, Mr. Lin has already made a default?"
"Hehe, yes, Mr. Lin has already made accusation!" Yin Lei also agreed.
"Default? Who made the default?" At this time, Lin Jingzhi finally spoke. Since Wang Meng had begun to suppress the Lin family on the surface, he would no longer be as conservative as before, and would always retreat again and again.
The contradiction has intensified. If he retreats and blindly tolerate, it will really become a soft persimmon.
If it really becomes a soft persimmon in the eyes of everyone, then in the future, the Lin family will not only fight against Tian Ji and Wang Meng, but also become the target of the wealthy businessmen in Luocheng who will seize the division. After all, there is a advantage, who will not take it? By then,
The Lin family is probably not far from the day of extermination!
So next, he must be tougher, even if he breaks up with Wang Meng, he will do whatever he wants. Of course, he can't be stupid without brain-free, as that will only make people think you are stupid, but fortunately,
Halfway through, he was temporarily prepared.
After gently brushing the sleeves, Lin Jingzhi said again: "Mr. Wang, I have heard that the fertile land under your name in your mansion alone is nearly 20,000 acres. If you add pawnshops, restaurants, etc.
But it is much richer than my Lin family. How could you just donate 300 taels of silver and let me donate 50,000 taels of silver?"
As soon as this sentence came out, Wang Meng's face suddenly became gloomy. The fists in his sleeves were clenched and his eyes were staring at Lin Jingzhi with fire. It was probably not unknown to everyone in the hall, but they knew,
I was just chatting in the dark, and no one dared to get it on the table to talk.
But he never expected that Lin Jingzhi would dare to humiliate him in public and break up with him!
You must know that he is the parent official of Luocheng!
Could it be that the Lin family really has no scruples? If the old lady Lin had not been titled as a seventh-grade imperial edict, he really wanted to put Lin Jingzhi in prison now!
Hearing this sentence, Jia Lin was very happy and secretly gave Lin Jingzhi a thumb. When Lin Jingzhi saw it, he nodded secretly, but did not dare to let others show up. He didn't want to drag the Jia family into him and Tian Ji and Wang Meng.
in the midst of open and secret struggle.
"As the highest commander of a city, Lord Wang only donated 300 taels of silver. Naturally, the Lin family could not go beyond it. In this way, Mr. Lin would donate 100 taels of silver to help the victims!"
After Lin Jingzhi said this, Wang Meng's face turned pale with anger.
"Bold, a mere businessman dares to mock and humiliate the officials of the court. I think you are impatient. Come on, take down this arrogant villain who is unrighteous!"
Zhang Xiu didn't expect that Lin Jingzhi was so bold and dared to expose his boss's shortcomings in front of so many people. After coming to his senses, he pulled out half of the sword on his waist with a "kneel" sound and shouted loudly.
The sun outside the hall gradually rose, and a few rays of sunlight shone on the bright and flat knife surface, making people dizzy.
When the soldiers surrounding the restaurant heard this, they rushed in a dozen times, but when they took action, Lin Jingzhi suddenly took a step forward and shouted loudly: "Who dares!"
Although he is a literati and not tall, these soldiers do not know Lin Jingzhi. This contemporary head of the Lin family is not something they can take down just by wanting to, and is subject to the momentum of Lin Jingzhi.
Forced them to pause, then stopped, then looked at each other, all looking at their commanders.
Seeing the soldiers stopped, Lin Jingzhi looked at Zhang Xiu and said angrily: "Mr. Zhang, although you are the garrison of Luocheng and serve in the court, you cannot ignore the title of juren on Lin's head! What does it mean
A bad businessman, don’t you know that as long as you pass the imperial examination, you will be the disciple of the emperor? In your eyes, you actually regard the disciple of the emperor as a bad businessman. Then I want to ask you, what is the emperor in your eyes?"
"This... you're talking nonsense... I don't..." Zhang Xiu was so big and thick that he was a general. His kung fu was far inferior to Lin Jingzhi's words.
Now Lin Jingzhi has moved out all the emperor, so he has no choice but to be afraid!
Seeing Zhang Xiu's blushing face and stuttering, Lin Jingzhi shouted loudly: "Also, Lord Zhang, you are just the guard of Luocheng, and you are just responsible for the city defense. Where can you get the power to capture it?"
Capturing prisoners is the job of the constable and yamen runners. If it were not for major events in the city, the soldiers would only be responsible for the city defense and guard the city gates.
When Zhang Xiu heard this, his face turned blue, but he couldn't say a word of argument that could establish a firm foothold.
"According to Mr. Lin, this tolerance officer has the right to capture you?" Yin Lei saw that Zhang Xiu was so angry that he couldn't speak, so he quickly spoke up to rescue him.
As soon as his voice was heard, everyone in the hall had goose bumps.
Yin Lei is the leader of Liushemen, who is specialized in catching criminals.
Lin Jingzhi sneered, not even afraid at all, and asked, "What crime did Lord Yin arrest him?"
"Didn't Lord Zhang just say that he insulted and mocked the officials of the court! Even if you are a juren, you can still be imprisoned!" Yin Lei said, walking towards Lin Jingzhi again, but after a while, he
I would glance at Aunt Yu from time to time.
Seeing this, Jia Lin's face was filled with nervousness again. As of now, Lin Jingzhi had already torn apart with Wang Meng. If he was taken to prison like this, his friends would probably find it difficult to come out alive again.
"Master Yin, where did you hear me insulting and mocking the imperial officials?" Lin Jingzhi straightened his waist without any fear. "Mr. Lin just kept telling the truth. Of course, if Master Yin could point out where to say it.
It's wrong, then Lin will never resist and let Lord Yin deal with it."
"Hmph, do you still want to resist? Let me tell you, this will decide you today!" Yin Lei glanced at Wang Meng's calm face with his eyes, and had no intention of stopping him, so he simply wanted to be tough.
"Mr. Wang, the world is bright and bright, and everyone is watching. Are you just letting your subordinates do whatever they want? Is it impossible for the king to succeed in the world?" Lin Jingzhi suddenly turned to Wang Meng and shouted angrily.
After hearing this, Wang Meng narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Liu Jingzhi, when he heard that natural disasters in the north were everywhere, he not only did not generously donate money to the country, but instead clamored, insulting the imperial court to order officials in front and disrupting the rich and righteous men to donate silver in the back.
Come and take it down for me!”
Before he came, Wang Meng had never thought about taking Lin Jingzhi. After all, there was no reason to tell the past. A scholar with fame and fortune cannot move casually, but now he is obviously very angry and cannot care about it. He directly gave it to him.
Lin Jingzhi forcibly detained one crime.
"If you want to add a crime, you have no choice!" Lin Jingzhi's face did not change and he faced him tit-for-tat. Before Yin Lei waved his hand and signaled the yamen runners to come forward to take the person, he suddenly added another sentence.
"I want to see, whoever dares to come and take me Lin Jingzhi with great courage. Don't forget that my Lin family has been granted the imperial title!"
After saying that, Lin Jingzhi's eyes would occasionally move to the restaurant door, secretly nervous, why did the person he arranged earlier have not arrived yet?
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone in the hall was shocked. The title of the seven-destiny imperial edict on the head of the old lady Lin was the biggest reliance of the Lin family at present. Although Luocheng is thousands of kilometers away from the capital,
Everything has something to do with the royal family, and in this era, it is a huge thing.
Wang Meng's face changed drastically when he heard this, but suddenly gritted his teeth and did not change his mind. He said, "The one who was named Old Lady Lin, it's not your Lin Jingzhi. Come and take it down!"
Just as he finished speaking, an old man's voice suddenly came from outside, "Second Master, Mr. Zheng wrote to you, saying that you would come to the Lin family as a guest in two days!"
Hearing this voice, Lin Jingzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, a hint of doubt arose in his heart. How could the person who came was the big manager Pang Lu! dd
