Fuzhou Prefecture,
On West Main Street, deep within the Lin Residence's courtyard of the Fuwei Bodyguard Agency, a tall middle-aged man stood in front of a fake mountain. This man was the Fuwei Bodyguard Agency's Chief Escort, Lin Zhennan.
Lin Zhennan held a teacup and was leisurely tasting tea.
These few days, Lin Zhennan was in a particularly good mood.
Last month, he invited Luo Renjie, one of the Four Talents of Qingcheng, to dinner. The two of them had a very happy conversation. Luo Renjie said that he could put in a good word for him in front of the Monastery Master Yu of Qingcheng Monastery to get through the Bashu Pass.
Once they cleared the Bashu checkpoint, the business of the Fuwei Bodyguard Agency would be even more prosperous, and they could continue to march into the Yungui region.
A few days ago, Luo Renjie had sent good news. He had asked him to send a hundred thousand taels of silver three months later. Once the money was received, the Fuwei Bodyguard Agency in the Ba Shu region would be under the protection of the Qingcheng Monastery.
"Master, Escort Liang's letter." At this moment, a beautiful woman walked over. Her manner carried a hint of nobility. It was Lin Zhennan's wife, Madam Wang. She held a letter in her hand.
"Escort Liang's letter, there's finally news.”Lin Zhennan hurriedly took the letter and said with a smile.
"I wonder how Little Yu is doing over there.”Madam Wang looked at the letter in Lin Zhennan's hand expectantly. She missed her son day and night.
"Humph!"
When Lin Zhennan heard Madam Wang mention Lin Yu, his expression instantly turned extremely ugly and he snorted coldly."Don't mention this good-for-nothing prodigal. He spends all day drinking.”
What happened three years ago almost made him vomit blood. Lin Yu volunteered to take care of the business of Fuwei Bodyguard Agency in Ying Tian. He thought that his son had grown up.
However, he did not expect that the first thing Lin Yu did after arriving at Ying Tian was to go to the Qinhuai River. He even used Ying Tian's Fuwei Bodyguard Agency's treasury silver to redeem a brothel girl and marry her.
This made Lin Zhennan the laughing stock of the bodyguard industry. The Lin family's face had been completely lost by Lin Yu.
"Old Master, Xiao Yu is still young and immature. She will be fine in two years.”Madam Wang argued.
"Hmph, it's all because of you. Don't think I don't know that you've secretly sent people to bring money over these three years.”Lin Zhennan said angrily when he heard Madam Wang's words.
"I..." Madam Wang was speechless. She was really afraid that Lin Yu would suffer outside. After all, the expenses of supporting a family were high.
"It's not that I can't bear to give him money. I want him to learn to be independent. When we're alive, he can live without worry. If one day we die, the Lin family's business will probably go bankrupt very quickly.”Lin Zhennan's tone softened.
"When he comes back next time, I'll give him a good lecture. If he doesn't come back, I'll go to Ying Tian.”Madam Wang said.
Lin Zhennan did not say anything else. He opened the letter and read the contents written by Escort Liang.
Soon, his eyes widened.
His body was trembling with anger. He could not stand steadily and almost fell to the ground.
"Master!"
Madam Wang hurriedly supported Lin Zhennan and said anxiously,"What's wrong with you? Are you alright?"
"This bastard, he's simply infuriating me.”Lin Zhennan hurriedly punched his chest. He was afraid that he would faint from anger.
"Master, what happened?”Madam Wang looked at Lin Zhennan and said,"Don't be angry."”
Lin Zhennan panted and said," Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu sold our Fu Wei Bodyguard Agency's property in Ying Tian. It was worth 90,000 taels of silver, but he sold it for 80,000 taels of silver. We are only left with a private residence in Ying Tian."”
"Did something happen to Xiao Yu? Why is he in such a hurry to use the money?”Madam Wang's expression changed when she heard Lin Zhennan's words."Old Master, quickly find someone to ask."
Her face was pale with fright. How big of a problem did it need to be settled with 80,000 taels of silver?
"I don't know what happened either. He didn't tell Escort Liang.”"But this isn't what angers me the most. What angers me the most is that he's the escort…" Lin Zhennan shook his head.
"Escorting is a good thing. Our Xiao Yu has finally made a name for himself. He finally knows how to do it. I was scared to death.”Madam Wang heaved a sigh of relief.
When Lin Zhennan heard Madam Wang's words, he wanted to cry.
He really wanted to tell Madam Wang, do you know how awesome your son is? He actually brought Dragon Slaying Saber and Heavenly Silk Robe to the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa in the capital.
He had never bet on something like this in his life.
His father had done it once, but he was beaten to death and his dart was robbed. The Lin family had worked for nothing for more than ten years.
"Your son is promising. Madam, I want to be alone.”Lin Zhennan could only tell Madam Wang that Lin Yu was promising.
He did not dare to tell Madam Wang the truth, afraid that she would fall ill from fright.
Madam Wang hummed a tune and left.
"Bang!"
After Madam Wang left, Lin Zhennan slammed his head against the wall.
