The Heavens: Falling Ink From Douluo

Chapter 566: Salt merchants stabbing each other in the back

Two o'clock in the middle of the night.

The rain stopped and the moon and stars were sparse.

In front of the Lin Mansion, there was a lot of traffic.

Zhen Yingjia is a smart person, but the major salt merchants are not fools either. Zhen Yingjia wants to sell the major salt merchants to save his life, and the major salt merchants also want to sell the Zhen family to survive.

They don't have such a big hatred against Lin Ruhai.

The Zhen family took the lead in making troubles, stumbling, and resorting to petty tactics. As a nest of snakes and rats, Lin Ruhai wiped out the Cao Gang and captured the evidence. Naturally, when disaster strikes, they all fly away, and who cares about the lives of others.

Throughout the ages, there have been many sellers seeking glory. These salt merchants are just trying to survive, which is not incomprehensible.

Moreover, doesn’t the Zhen family also want to sell these salt merchants to survive?

They are all those who laugh at fifty steps and laugh at a hundred steps.

No one is better than anyone else.

It stands to reason that when all the major salt merchants came together, they all had the idea of ​​"selling out others to save themselves." They would have said nothing, ridiculed each other, and even made physical moves. But now, Salt Patrol Censor Lin Ruhai I have grasped the weakness of all of them, and if I dare to cause trouble again, isn't this just to prepare Lin Ruhai's list of "killing chickens to scare monkeys"!
Lin Ruhai must be wondering who to scare the monkeys with!

Therefore, not only the Zhen family did not dare to cause trouble, but even the major salt merchants who came with the purpose of betraying others did not dare to cause trouble in front of the Lin Mansion.

The old housekeeper was in a daze.

It seems that I saw the scene when Lin Ruhai took office, these salt merchants wanted to bribe Lin Ruhai, and there was a lot of traffic and they came to visit Lin's house.

However, Lin Ruhai didn't let him receive these people.

as predicted.

It was not as expected by Lin Ruhai.

Lin Chaoci and Huang Rong came from a distance.

Huang Rong actually held a bunch of candied haws in her hand.

I don’t know where I bought it in the middle of the night.

The old housekeeper's face suddenly turned into a flower with a smile, which puzzled the salt merchants around him. He quickly walked down the steps, pushed away the salt merchants blocking the way, and then trotted up to Lin Chaoci with a respectful attitude. : "Young master, I have already hosted a banquet in my house. I hope you and this young lady can enjoy the honor. Also, I asked me to express my fault to you on his behalf. It was indeed his fault for the previous incident. You are right, master." , I wonder what the young master and this young lady think?"

Huang Rong trembled.

Is this a big shot?

Thousands of people's lives were said carelessly.

She was far away, smelling the blood, and felt a little nauseated and trembling. Fortunately, she had seen blood and had some resistance. But this mere salt patrol censor actually had the intention to host a banquet for Lin after going to the scene. Chao Ci and she are definitely civil servants and not military commanders?

Zhen Yingjia and the major salt merchants also heard it.

He glanced up and felt an inexplicable chill running down his spine.

They didn't dare to make any noise, and they didn't even dare to protest.

Right now, they are grandchildren.

Maybe Lin Ruhai just wanted to scare the monkeys?

The concept of fishing law enforcement has been around for a long time.

However, this word has never been true.

Lin Chaoci turned his head and cast a tentative gaze on Huang Rong. Huang Rong was also a girl who liked fun. She nodded in response to Lin Chaoci's gaze.

"Then please."

After Lin Chaoci received Huang Rong's answer.

He raised his hand and signaled the old housekeeper to go ahead.

He was going back to the Lin Mansion, not to attend the banquet, but to give Lin Daiyu an explanation, saying that what I promised you has been completed and this promise is invalid. I hope you understand this.

Lin Ruhai's banquet was just a minor incident.

It doesn't matter if he wants to go or if he doesn't want to go.

Anyway, the relationship between the two families is not far or close. Lin Ruhai's wife's sister-in-law is the sister of Xue Baochai's mother, and he is Xue Baochai's fiancé. It cannot be said that they are not relatives, but the relationship is very weak.

Since Huang Rong wants to go, then just go.

The old housekeeper also came with the mentality of being rejected. When he heard that Lin Chaoci agreed, he was very happy. He knew who brought his master today's glory, and he quickly bowed and led the way.When I opened the door, I didn't even look at the salt merchants.

Not even looking at Zhen Yingjia.

After sending Lin Chaoci inside, he returned to the door.

With a cold face, I said that I have accepted the greetings from you people and sent the boy to show it to the master. I am still waiting for the master's reply.

With permission, you can enter.

If it’s not allowed, just wait.

I hope you guys won't be anxious either.

If it doesn't work, go home and wait until tomorrow.

The master's health is also not good.

Isn’t it normal to take a night’s rest?
When Zhen Yingjia and the other major salt merchants heard this, they almost wanted to spit on this old guy. It's not you who died. Of course you are not in a hurry. The other salt merchants are all here. What if I go back and your master wants to change his mind and suddenly welcomes you again? No one knows if other salt dealers will sell me!
Wait!
Even if we wait until dawn tomorrow, we have to wait!

Wait until Lin Ruhai is willing to see them!
This is a matter of life and death, and there is no room for carelessness!

And in Lin Mansion.

in the backyard.

A family dinner has already begun.

There were only five of them - Lin Ruhai, Lin Daiyu, Lin Chaoci, Zijuan and the little Huang Rong who was eating and drinking. But without exception, they were all trustworthy people, even Huang Rong was the same.

Lin Daiyu looked a little tired.

Even more tired than her was Lin Ruhai.

However, Lin Ruhai expected that Lin Chaoci would definitely find Lin Daiyu to explain the details and explain clearly after he was done, so he forced himself to stay tired and entertained Lin Chaoci.

There is a bottle of viburnum dew on the table.

This is a famous wine in Yangzhou.

Since the Song Dynasty, it has been praised by literati.

Lin Chaoci took a bite and felt good.

It tastes sweet and not spicy.

Even Lin Daiyu drank a small glass, which showed that the quality of this wine was really good.

The wine is good and the food is not bad either.

Yangzhou cuisine is the birthplace of Huaiyang cuisine. The "Wensi Tofu" that tests your knife skills the most is Huaiyang cuisine. As a salt patrol censor, Lin Ruhai has extraordinary power and financial resources compared to ordinary officials. Naturally, this dish is also on the dining table today. Famous dishes, except for the more famous Yangzhou fried rice, there are all the others, which expresses Lin Ruhai's sincerity.

The ancients set many rules for daily life.

Say nothing when you eat and say nothing when you sleep. This is one of the rules.

However, Lin Ruhai is not a corrupt scholar, and has a correct understanding of this rule. It is not that he does not speak when eating, but that he does not speak when there is food in his mouth. This was the original intention of Confucius when he wrote the Analects.

Moreover, a banquet is a time for chatting.

It’s a time-honored concept that it’s easy to talk over a wine table.

"My nephew..."

Lin Ruhai changed his name again.

As soon as Lin Chaoci heard this, he knew what Lin Ruhai wanted to do.

Lin Ruhai also felt like a mirror in his heart, smiled, and said tentatively: "With such martial arts that shock the world, the future is limitless. When the Holy One is upright in employing people, he is also preparing to use troops on the border. My nephew does not want to do anything for the country and the people." Do you want to use your strength, make meritorious deeds repeatedly, and strive for glory and wealth for future generations?"

"I don't think so."

Lin Chaoci waved his hand, his mood waning: "Since Uncle Lin Shi, you asked me sincerely, then I will tell you the truth - you can live to be a hundred years old without any disease or disaster, Grand Masters and Grand Masters live a long life, and the gods on land are more But just sitting back and watching the rise and fall of dynasties is just like those land gods who rarely have heirs and descendants. Some are just born before those land gods become masters and grand masters. Those who don't have, there is a high probability that they will not have any in the future. When a person lives long enough, he will understand that many things in this world are illusory. Even if there are real descendants, those who have the ability can achieve glory and wealth without you. Those who don’t have the ability can achieve glory and wealth with you. , and can’t keep the glory and wealth.”

As he spoke, he changed the topic and said with a smile: "I don't have any ambitions, but I am not a soft persimmon that can be pinched by everyone. If the emperors of the Later Han Dynasty were all smart people, then everyone would be in trouble. Don't go against the flow of the river, if the emperor of the Later Han Dynasty was an iron-blooded emperor who could not tolerate sand in his eyes, his life would be short."

Lin Chaoci pointed to the sky, then put down his hands, took a piece of lion's head and put it into his mouth, chewed it twice, and then smiled with a satisfied look on his face: "You say he is the emperor, but he is just a person who wants to be someone else's son. It’s not certain whether others are willing to accept this godson. Even if he accepts him, he will definitely be treated differently than his biological son. If possible, please Lin Shishu, please give that person a message. It means that what he did with the Sun Moon God Sect I know all the details, the Xue family, I'm covering up, I hope he won't cause me any trouble, and I also need him to give me an explanation for this misunderstanding."
