"Good! In that case, I will continue to reward Minister Lin!”

Then, the empress spat out a pile of rewards, which made Lin Beifan dizzy and the officials jealous.

However, they did not dare to stop him anymore because of their previous experience.

He was afraid that he would be angered to death by a certain bastard.

To Lin Beifan, if there were benefits, he would accept them. Hence, he said loudly,""Thank you, Lord!"

"Next, let's discuss the reception!”

"This time, the envoy from Doro Country is here to discuss the matter of compensation! They should send out smart and capable people to investigate the other party's background! Dear ministers, do you have any candidates?”

At this moment, the Minister of Rites stood up and clasped his hands."Your Majesty, I think it's more appropriate to leave this matter to the new top scorer, Siye Lin!”

Lin Beifan, who was slacking off, was stunned.

Why did it suddenly involve him?

"Why did you say that?" The empress looked at Lin Bei Fan and asked.

"Your Majesty," the Minister of Rites said loudly,"Siye Lin and Prince Ha Mu are about the same age. They are both young people, so it is easier to get to know them!" Furthermore, Siye had always been quick-witted and had just exposed Envoy Doro's trick! I believe that Lin Siye will be able to find out more about him during the reception!”

Lin Beifan rolled his eyes. This old man was up to no good!

It was not a good job to receive foreign guests. One had to treat them like their ancestors and eat, drink, and play with them. They could not be offended.

It was only right to serve him well, but if he didn't serve him well, it would be a diplomatic dispute.

It was a thankless effort!

This kind of reception work should have been handed over to experienced, mature and steady old officials.

Yet, the other party had thrown this mission to him. He clearly wanted to see him make a fool of himself!

His heart is worthy of punishment!

The empress also saw through the intentions of the Minister of Rites.

However, she had some expectations for Lin Beifan and asked,""Minister Lin, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty," Lin Beifan said, clasping his hands."I feel that this matter should be handed over to the Ministry of Rites!" Moreover, I have just taken up the position of director-general and am busy with official matters. I really can't share your worries. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!”

The corners of the officials 'mouths twitched.

Busy with work…

busy my ass!

They were busy teaching their son a lesson all day long!

He was busy stealing money from them!

Now, he was even more despicable. He even dragged Princess Yunying into this!

Gao Tianyao, the Minister of Official Personnel Affairs, stood up and said loudly,"I feel that this matter is most suitable for Lin Siye!”

The Minister of Revenue also stood up."I also think that this matter is most suitable for Lin Siye!”

The Minister of Justice also stood up and said,"I agree!”

…All

the officials spoke up and strongly recommended him!

Not for anything else, but to let their children suffer less!

"Alright, I'll leave this matter to Minister Lin!”the empress said loudly.

Lin Beifan was helpless. He really couldn't escape this time!

This group of old foxes!

Since that was the case, Lin Beifan might as well let go!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and all the lords for your kindness! However, this is a serious matter. I am afraid that my salary is not enough to entertain you, so I want to apply for an envoy fee!”

"That makes sense! How much do you need? I'll get the Ministry of Revenue to give it to you!”the empress asked.

"I want three hundred thousand taels!" Lin Beifan bowed.

The entire place exploded.

"300,000 taels?!"

"Do you need so many to receive a group of foreign guests?”

"Lin Siye, are you kidding me?”

The

empress's lips twitched.

This guy was here again!

He simply wanted to be greedy!

He was actually greedy in front of all the officials and her!

He was getting bolder and bolder!

Lin Beifan felt wronged. If I were to receive the envoys of Doro, I would definitely bring them good food, drinks, and entertainment. I would give them a home away from home, but all of this would cost money!”

"There's a posthouse where I live, so let's not talk about it!”

"But you can't be careless when it comes to food! The best restaurant in the capital costs an average of 50 taels per person! There were 20 of them on this trip, and they had to eat three meals a day. Wouldn't that cost 3000 taels a day? They needed to stay for about ten days, so they would need 30,000 taels of silver just for food!”

"Also, there will definitely be some singing and dancing performances during the meal. Our best dance troupe in the capital needs 3000 taels for one performance. That's 30,000 taels for 10 days!”

"What if they still want to go to the brothel to look for girls? The cost will be even higher…

" In

the end, Lin Beifan said confidently,""Therefore, I dare to bid 300,000 taels with evidence!”

"Moreover, this is the first time that the Vagal Official has received a foreign guest. He doesn't have much experience. Prepare more money to be prepared! Please understand and forgive me, Your Majesty and all the lords!”

Everyone's faces twitched again.

This guy really dared to say that!

The empress expressionlessly looked at the Minister of Revenue and said,"Minister Qian, what do you think?"

The Minister of Revenue's face darkened."Your Majesty, we are currently in a tight financial situation. We can only afford 200,000 at most!"”

"Add more points!" Lin Beifan said.

The Minister of Revenue's face darkened even more. He flicked his sleeves and said,"Just 200,000 yuan, no more!”

"Good! Just 200,000!" "Minister Lin, after you receive this money, entertain the envoy from Doro Country well. At the same time, investigate the situation. Don't let me down!" the empress said loudly.”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Lin Beifan clasped his hands.

Although he couldn't get 300,000 yuan, he was still happy to get 200,000 yuan!
