"This time, I told them everything I know. I didn't hide anything. I only hope that Young Master won't let them torture me anymore and give me a quick death!”
Lin Yuanshan couldn't calm down for a long time after hearing what Ergou said. He didn't expect that so many things were involved and that there was even a mastermind behind it. Now, they only knew that this mastermind was related to the Li family's grain trading company. Other than that, there was no other useful information. It seemed that the enemy they were facing this time was very powerful, and they did things flawlessly. In the future, the two sides would compete, and it was still unknown who would win.
He would let them live in peace for a period of time and continue to investigate this matter in the future. Moreover, the internal thieves were not eliminated, and the family was in turmoil. Butler Lin, this old fox, was still wandering outside. There were some things that he had to be wary of. He had to hurry up and deal with the matters of the second and third families. If he did not make a decision, he would be in trouble.
"Alright, since you've told me everything, I agree to your condition. Although you poisoned me and it's not an exaggeration to cut you into pieces, you've been in the Lin family for so many years. I'm also a person who remembers old ties. I'll get someone to give you a quick death! You will handle this matter on the 10th. Also, go and call Goudan and Chunniang over. There are some things I want to ask them. After this matter is settled, we will immediately go to the second branch and the third workshop.”
As soon as Lin Yuanshan finished speaking, someone from his family went to bring Chun Niang and Goudan over. After seeing the two of them, Lin Yuanshan didn't intend to waste any more time and went straight to the point.
"Chun Niang, you've worked hard all these years. Today's matter is quite unexpected. If there's anything inappropriate, please forgive me. I know Chun Niang is loyal to the Lin family. Pack your things immediately and go to the back door. Listen to Wan 'er's arrangements and follow them to the Lin family manor. Listen to me first and don't interrupt. Do what I tell you to do immediately. Don't ask anything else!”
"Goudan, who do you work for? You have to tell me the truth. Don't try to lie to me, or I'll have to get someone to do something to you. If you don't tell me the truth, I can only treat you as a traitor. Even if you're innocent, you can only go underground to complain!”
"Young Master, I'll tell you everything! Please don't let someone kill me. If that happens, I'll be even more wronged than Dou E! Young Master, the Old Madam arranged for me to be in the kitchen. It was mainly to ensure that Young Master's food was not poisoned. The Old Madam was afraid that after she died, someone would want to harm Young Master, so she asked me to be a nail in the kitchen to ensure that Young Master's food was not poisoned! This time, it was indeed my fault. I never thought that Ergou would be such a person!”
"Young Master, I'm loyal to the Lin family. I still have a younger sister who lives with me in the Lin family. If Young Master is going to the Lin family manor, please take the two of us with you! Old Madam once said that when Young Master grew up, my sister would be Young Master's concubine. Every word I said was true. If I lied, I would be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!”As soon as Lin Yuanshan finished speaking, Gou Dan couldn't wait to tell him everything, not daring to hide anything.
"Alright, I understand. Call your sister to pack up and follow Chun Niang to the backyard. Listen to Wan 'er's arrangements and follow them to the Lin Manor obediently. Hurry up and go! I still have other things to deal with, so I won't talk to you guys anymore!”
Chun Niang and Goudan bowed to Lin Yuanshan and immediately ran to their respective rooms. At this moment, No. 10 returned to report that Ergou had already been dealt with. As he was afraid that the gunshots would cause unnecessary trouble, he went to Ergou's room and found some arsenical acid. He let Ergou eat it directly, and the matter was considered clean.
"Let's go. Let's meet the two main characters and see what they mean. He hoped that they could understand the situation. Otherwise, the consequences would be unpredictable.”
The four of them walked towards the courtyard where the second and third families lived. On the way, they saw people coming and going. They were running towards the back door with things in their hands. The four of them quickened their pace. After all, the longer they stayed in the Lin family, the more danger they would be in. This was the county town, not the countryside. It was not easy to escape from here.
After arriving at the destination, Lin Yuanshan asked about the current situation. After finding that these people were relatively honest, Lin Yuanshan was relieved. He got someone to open the door to the room where the second and third families were located, and the group of people directly entered. After entering, the maids and servants were directly chased to the side. The bright guns were pointed at each other. The atmosphere between the two sides was quite tense.
"Yo, what is Young Master doing today? Don't tell me you're going to be rebellious? No matter what, we're your elders. Aren't you afraid of being a joke by treating us like this?”
"Aiyo, I really didn't expect that our young master would put justice before family now! Hurry up and bring all the young and old men of Beiping over to take a look at how promising our young master is!”
“……”
"Don't say such sour words over there. There are some things that you know very well in your hearts. Everyone's faces will not look good if I say something that is usually not presentable. The reason why I'm in this position today is to prove that I want to have a good talk with you! If we can't reach a good agreement, then we can only fall out with each other. In the end, both sides can only end up in a life-and-death situation!”
"I don't want to talk nonsense with you here. I still have things to do later. If your answer today is satisfactory, then we can part ways peacefully. If your answer is not satisfactory, then the consequences today are really unpredictable. I might really put justice above family. Let me make it clear to you in advance that your lives are in my hands now. Even if I kill you now and pretend to be a fire, you won't be able to do anything!”
"Sometimes, people have to know their own limits! I don't want to go that far either, so it's best if we part on good terms. "I already know about the little things you did previously. The grain trading company has stretched your hands deep enough. You even teamed up with those wolves and tigers outside to annex the entire Lin family. In the end, you even had to take the blame for you. Since you guys are heartless, don't blame me for being unjust. The premise of our negotiation is to take out all the money in your hands and don't hide it from me. Actually, I can search for it directly, but I think it will take more time.”
"Of course, it doesn't matter if the two of you don't say it. I believe some people are willing to say it. Hand over the ill-gotten gains in your hands as soon as possible, and you can still keep your lives. As for the businesses in your hands, they will be your own in the future. You can play with them however you want. As long as you don't disturb me, we will live in peace in the future!”
"As for the grain trading company, I only want the grain inside. Everything else is yours. This is considered fair enough for you! "Of course, if you feel that you're at a disadvantage, I can give you the entire Lin Manor. I'll find another place for myself. In this way, you won't be at a disadvantage! I've already set the conditions to this extent. If you're still unwilling, then we can only fall out.”
"I hope the two of you can consider it carefully and not make a scene. That won't help solve the problem at all. I'll give you 15 minutes to consider. After that, we'll discuss again. I'll go out first. You guys think about it carefully. Chase all these maids and servants out and lock them in the room next door! This can be considered as a show of strength for you. Sometimes, people are like donkeys. They don't want to walk but retreat instead. This description is a little inappropriate, but as long as the meaning is reached, it's fine!”
The two of them were so frightened by Lin Yuanshan that they didn't dare to say a word. After he went out, the two of them began to discuss in a low voice. Lin Yuanshan looked at the people who were brought out of the opposite room one after another. Their faces were filled with joy as they hurried back to their rooms to pack their things.
"It seems that there are still many people loyal to the Lin family. As long as these people follow me obediently, their lives will definitely not be bad in the future. The two people in the room should obediently agree to that condition. He would be throwing the entire mess to them. He reckoned that after Butler Lin returned, there would be an intense battle between the two sides. One side had the righteousness, and the other side had enough strength. Even if the two sides did not fight, it would probably be difficult for them to get along peacefully! However, he didn't have time to watch them fight each other. Only by escaping like this could he not only preserve his strength, but he could also plot against both sides at the same time. It could be said to be killing several birds with one stone!”Lin Yuanshan thought to himself that things were gradually developing in the direction of the plan. If nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to get away from this whirlpool before tomorrow morning and start the first step of the newbie's rise.
Half an hour passed quickly. Lin Yuanshan entered the room and asked directly before the other party could speak.
"Don't think that I'm ruthless. I only want your gold, silver, and oceans. I don't even want those antiques, calligraphy, paintings, or jade. Those things are quite valuable. I'll give you the title deed of this house and the contract of the grain trading company. However, we have to write a written agreement to make certain things clear. All the grain in the grain trading company belongs to me. I think you don't care about that bit of grain. "As for the horses and carriages at home, they will all belong to me. Other than these, I will also take a portion of the people with me. The rest will be yours.”
