Zheng Li took the tea cup and was very moved. He then looked at Lin Wuyue and Ye Wanqing sitting beside them, both looking at him with kind faces.
Zheng Li directly placed the tea cup on the table.
This scene made Lin Yun and others stunned.
Lin Yun asked: "What's wrong?"
Zheng Li knelt directly on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Master Lin, following that Qiu Yi to suppress the bandits this time went very smoothly, but in the end, Qiu Yi went against his word and forcibly withheld 30% of the silver that was supposed to be the master's!"
As soon as these words came out, the main hall fell into silence.
Lin Wuyue and Ye Wanqing also remained silent, but both looked at Lin Yun. ..
Lin Yun looked indifferent, picked up the tea cup, and said with a smile: "I said you seemed to have something on your mind, so it turned out to be this!"
Zheng Li said sternly: "Master Lin, that Qiu Yi has gone too far! He is so dishonest, we should not associate with him in the future!"
Lin Yun nodded and said: "Actually... I have guessed it a long time ago!"
Everyone couldn't help but frown.
Lin Yun is so smart. When he sent eight hundred taels of silver last time, he guessed that Qiu Yi would not be willing to let himself get so much money easily.
However, Lin Yun really couldn't guess what excuse Qiu Yi would make.
Ye Wanqing asked: "Ms. sir, it seems that Yucheng Mansion has begun to guard against us!"
Lin Yun did not answer her words and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, no one can take what is ours, it should be kept in Qiu Yi's hands first!"
The other party must now know the power of the bamboo gun and the practical benefits it brings.
But if you want to deter the enemy for a long time, you need a lot of ammunition. As long as you hold on to the ammunition firmly, you don't have to worry about Yucheng Mansion not compromising.
Immediately, he looked at Zheng Lili and asked, "How much money were collected in total during this bandit suppression?"
Zheng Li quickly replied: "Not counting the large amount of supplies, the total is one hundred thousand taels of silver!"
"hiss!!"
Lin Wuyue and Ye Wanqing took a breath of cold air.
One hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount. If calculated, it would be at least 30,000 taels in Lin Yun's hands.
I still remember that when Lin Yun wiped out the Yellow Turban Alliance, the money collected was less than two thousand taels.
This difference is more than ten times.
Ye Wanqing immediately stood up, slapped the table and shouted: "Ms. sir, this matter must not be settled like this!!"
Lin Yun nodded and said: "Of course not! But what can we do now? Fall out with Yucheng Mansion directly?"
Ye Wanqing was suddenly speechless.
At this time, Oona walked in and shouted: "If you fall out, you will fall out. My husband, please arrange ten gunmen for me. I will definitely kill the Qiu family father and son. When the time comes, you will be the governor of Yucheng. You will definitely be better than them!" "
Everyone shook their heads helplessly.
Oona's words were bold and bold, but in fact they were meaningless and even impossible.
Lin Yun smiled bitterly and said: "Do you think the governor of Yucheng Mansion is self-proclaimed? Without the approval of the imperial court, even if we capture Yucheng Mansion, it will be completely useless. Instead, the imperial court will regard him as a traitor!"
Oona snorted softly, sat on a chair nearby, and said: "You Eastern Continent people are the most troublesome. If you were in our southern barbarian, you would definitely take revenge immediately!"
Lin Yun ignored her statement, looked at Zheng Li, and said, "Okay! I don't blame you for this! You don't have to blame yourself!"
After saying that, he looked at Lin Wuyue and said, "Wuyue, go get a hundred taels of silver and give it to Commander Zheng!"
Lin Wuyue immediately stood up and left.
Zheng Li quickly waved his hand and said: "Sir, we are not rich now, so just forget about this money!! Besides, my humble position didn't help much this time!"
"Zheng Lili, this money is not awarded to you because of your meritorious service, but because of your performance this time! Do you understand what it means?"
Lin Yun smiled.
Zheng Li was stunned for a moment, but looking into Lin Yun's deep eyes, he suddenly understood and nodded: "Understood!"
At the same time, he secretly broke into a cold sweat and said in his heart: "Master Lin really did it this time."
Test me! "
He was frightened for a while. If he was really instigated by Qiu Yi this time, what awaited him might be endless assassinations.
With this powerful bamboo gun, even a weak child can easily kill him, making him completely impossible to defend against.
At this time, Lin Wuyue handed one hundred taels of silver to Zheng Li.
Zheng Li was moved to tears. After taking the money, he said, "Don't worry, sir. I, Zheng Li, swear to God that I will never do anything wrong to you in this life!"
Lin Yun smiled and said, "Okay! You don't have to swear! If you really have ulterior motives, swearing is of no use! I just hope you can live up to your own conscience! Go down!"
Zheng Li then stood up and left.
At this time, Lin Wuyue said helplessly: "Ms. sir, the eight hundred taels of silver that Ma Ji sent last time
. has also been squandered. In addition, we have recently ordered a large number of seeds for farming, and we have to pay wages to the villagers who produce black powder every day. We don’t have much money in our hands! "
Ye Wanqing sighed quietly and said: "My husband, I have to admit that your ability to make money is really great, but... you also spend money really fast! Moreover, you are so bold!"
Oona curled her lips and said, "It's just pretending! Once the turnover is completely gone, my husband will not be able to show off his abilities no matter how great he is!"
Seeing the worried looks on the faces of the three women, Lin Yun raised his head and laughed: "Don't worry, madam! This money is earned, not saved. As long as it is used wisely, it is not a waste. I promise , the money you spend will come back tenfold and a hundredfold! Just stay with it for a while!"
Lin Yun also felt pressure in his heart.
He had always thought that Zheng Li would definitely be able to bring back a large amount of money when he went to suppress the bandits.
But since Ma Ji brought eight hundred taels of silver last time, he realized something was wrong.
This Qiu Yi is simply unreliable.
Faced with such a greedy and bottomless person, Lin Yun could only choose to stay away.
His only hope now lies in Ma Ji.
Hope he can bring good results.
In addition, it is absolutely impossible for him not to act generously.
Just like the chief manager of the Yucheng Prefecture's Internal Affairs Bureau, he was originally a fat employee.
He deals with all kinds of materials and money all day long. If he doesn't act generous, how can he seduce Ma Ji?
Only by showing that you are as wealthy as the enemy can you make the other party give up.
Another half month passed in a flash.
Lin Yun has made hundreds of perfumes.
Even the crops in the field have grown a lot taller than their seedlings. Read the book
But Ma Ji is like a kite with its string cut off. The last time we left, there was no more movement.
No matter how good his psychological quality is, Lin Yun still can't sit still.
We can only arrange for Oona to go into the city secretly to observe the situation.
After waiting and waiting, Oona finally came back.
Lin Yun immediately stepped forward to greet him and said with a smile, "How is the situation over there?"
Oona took a sip of tea and said, "After a lot of effort, I finally met with Na Maji! He just asked the husband to wait for the good news! Recently, a big shot came to Yucheng Mansion. I heard that he was sent by the imperial court. The imperial envoy, so let alone Manager Ma, the entire Yucheng Mansion is extremely busy!"
