Chapter 240 Lin Daiyu gets rich on the road

"Miss, we are almost in the capital!"

Xueyan stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the scenery on the river bank and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He no longer held the sword at his waist in his hand, but let it float around his waist.

"Xueyan, is there any boat following us on the road?"

Lin Daiyu sat in the cabin, wearing a full set of armor, holding the Fang Tian Hua Ji in her hand, and resting her eyes. After asking a question, there were more than a dozen maids wearing half-armor standing behind him, each with a sword hanging on their waists, a soft bow, and a leather bag on their waists, which contained a pile of lacquered gold marbles.

It seemed that these people were bought by Lin Daiyu on the road. They didn't say much, but each of them was very strong, so Lin Daiyu taught them a set of Yue girl swordsmanship, taught them how to use slingshots, and also taught them a set of small grappling techniques.

These people have no problem dealing with ordinary bandits and robbers. Even three or five strong men can be captured by them.

Moreover, these people have seen blood along the way and killed many pirates and bandits on the road.

"Someone put a coat on me!"

Lin Daiyu stood up at this time, waved her hand, and asked the maids to change her clothes. The maids immediately brought a long robe for Lin Daiyu to wear, and then tied Lin Daiyu's hair up, like a man, and put a headband to hold the hair in front.

Next came a set of powder makeup, which turned Lin Daiyu into a man with red lips and white teeth, looking extremely handsome.

"Miss, we're at the dock!"

As soon as Xueyan came in, she saw her young lady dressed as a man, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she whistled, and immediately a groom came over with a fast horse.

"Xueyan, you are worthy of being the one who has been with me the longest. Come on, get on the horse."

Lin Daiyu nodded with satisfaction, then came to a white horse and rode on it. Then she took the Fang Tian Hua Ji in her hand, squeezed her legs together, and the warhorse naturally walked out.

On the shore, a group of people were surrounding Lin Daiyu's boat and watching. Lin Daiyu's boat was not much smaller than the building ship, and behind it were more than a dozen cargo ships, and there were also many small boats for guarding. Those small boats were also filled with a group of strong men, either holding knives or guns in their hands, wearing soft cowhide armor and carrying strong bows and sharp arrows on their backs. They looked like they were not easy to mess with.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Where is this boat coming from? Do you know the rules? You came here to dock your boat, but it actually took up the entire dock. What are you doing?"

Several yamen runners, accompanied by a dozen hangers-on, pushed and shoved their way in, and then they started shouting loudly. They regretted their words as soon as they finished shouting, because three planks came flying from the boat in front of them. All three planks were one meter wide and were put together.

As soon as I came out of the board, I saw someone riding a horse coming out of the boat.

Those horses were all tall and strong horses from the north, with shoulder heights of nearly a person. In the capital, one of these horses would cost at least a thousand taels of silver.

The white horse in the lead had not a single stray hair on it and looked as white as a piece of satin, sparkling in the sunlight.

If this horse were taken out and sold in the capital, it would be worth at least ten thousand taels of silver, so the yamen runners were all scared. The horses that came out later, although their coats were not as good, were all tall and strong.

Moreover, the saddles on those horses were all made of high-quality leather and inlaid with pearls, jade and gems. The stirrups were made of pure gold.

You can also see the word "Rong" on the tassels decorating the war horse.

Small figures in the capital may not have other things, but they must have vision. They all know what the word "Rong" means. Therefore, all the Rong people in Rongguo Mansion retreated one by one.

Those who were a step slower in retreating were immediately whipped by the maids on horseback. At this time, the runners realized that except for the leader, all the knights on horseback were women, and those women were all wearing half-body armor, with swords on their waists and slingshots inserted diagonally.

"Who are you, you bastard? How dare you block the way here? Get out of the way!"

Xueyan whipped the gang members hard with the whip, pushing all the gang members aside. Then she pulled out a golden marble from her waist bag, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the hands of the yamen runner.

"This is the docking fee my master gave you. Keep it and don't lose it. In two hours, people from the Jia family on Ningrong Street will come to deliver the goods. Watch carefully!"

When the yamen runners saw a golden egg thrown in front of them, they immediately smiled widely. They didn't care that the gang members were beaten to pieces, and they kept bowing to show their goodwill.
Because they also saw that the golden bullet was real, and the maid's kung fu was even more real.

"Master, we should go to Ningrong Street."

After Xueyan finished everything, she reported to Lin Daiyu. Lin Daiyu nodded, pointed the whip forward and said, "Lead the way." Xueyan immediately whistled and called seven or eight strong men to clear a path.

Then three or four people jumped down from the two small boats with sticks in their hands and started to drive people out.

"Xueyan, don't hurt anyone. You must give them what they deserve."

"Yes, Master."

Xueyan also knew what Lin Daiyu meant. To put it bluntly, it was the same as when she was on the road. Every time she passed a place, Lin Daiyu would show off her financial resources, and then pick out the local rich people who were not honest in their hearts. That night, she would take people to kill the rich people and take their money. This was the only way that Lin Daiyu could go from having only a small boat when she left Yangzhou to having a fleet of thirty or forty boats now.

Only then could he get the precious tripod on the boat, as well as a bunch of other rare toys. Therefore, Xueyan knew very well what to do. After driving the people aside, he immediately asked the maids to scatter silver leaves on the roadside.

This thing was originally intended to be used when watching the Qiantang River tide in Hangzhou and enjoying the silver leaves and floating gold. However, Lin Daiyu was reluctant to throw the silver into the water, so she could only use it as a lure.

As soon as the silver was scattered around, the people who had been making a fuss and feeling a little embarrassed about the gesture all began to express their gratitude profusely, because although the silver was not much, it was free.

It is a good thing for everyone to get silver for free, and that silver is enough for one or two coins.

Lin Daiyu and her group arrived at Ningrong Street in a carefree manner. The people in Ningrong Street had already gathered there. Many of them were from the Jia family in the back alley, and some were from Xianhan who gathered here for the hustle and bustle of Ningrong Street. Their only purpose was to get silver.

"Xueyan, it's over."

When Lin Daiyu saw this, she immediately realized that a lot of the silver could not be taken out, so she just spent all the money. The Xue family members who came with them in the car were watching with gritted teeth.

"Sister, sister of the Lin family, you are spending money again. How much money does their family have? They are richer than our Xue family. Our Xue family is the largest overseas royal merchant in the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

Xue Pan was extremely unhappy with this scene. In his opinion, such a huge amount of money was just wasted like that. It was really a waste, and the money was spent all the way.

The amount of silver he spent along the way was at least thirty or fifty thousand taels of silver. It really made him feel distressed that thirty or fifty thousand taels of silver were just wasted like that.

Xue Baochai looked at her silly brother and sneered. He had only visited two cities before he found out what the Lin family was doing. They spent money during the day and wiped out families at night. Along the way, more than a dozen wealthy merchants were wiped out. These merchants had at least one million taels of silver and tens of thousands of taels of gold. The rest were gold, pearls, and jade, and no one knew how much more. If the deeds to the farms were included, the Lin family had earned at least five or six million taels of silver along the way.

No one can pull off this kind of thing without any means, and the Xue family definitely can't pull it off, so Xue Baochai didn't say a word, because this kind of family is not something they can afford to offend.

Of course, there is another point. Xue Baochai went out in the middle of the night and saw the situation of the Lin family. There were hundreds of murderers working together. It took less than a stick of incense to wipe out the whole family and then take away all the silver, money and jewelry.

As for whether the title deed to the house has been moved, no one knows, but it seems that it has not been moved much.

Because those things would probably be left for the local government to collect. After all, if you eat the meat at home, you should leave some soup for others.

Xue Baochai was very sure of this, because no one along the way had investigated the incidents of those ancient families being exterminated.

This would be absolutely impossible if benefits were not distributed locally.

When you enter Linglong Street, you will see two big stone lions squatting on the north side of the street, three big doors with animal heads, and a dozen people in gorgeous clothes sitting in front of the doors.

The main gate was not open, only the two corner gates in the east and west were slightly open, and people could be seen entering and leaving.

"Miss, there is something wrong with Rongguo Mansion. The servants at the door are all wearing silk and satin, and they all wear gold-carved pearl flowers on their heads. This is not a good thing. These servants are too rich."

Xueyan also wore a red bird pearl on her head, but this pearl was given by Jia Min because she took good care of her young lady. Even though she was given this pearl, she did not dare to wear it at all times. She only took it out and wore it during festivals. It was only now that she put the flower back on when she went out with her young lady to decorate her appearance. Otherwise, it was the same as before, and she could only take it out and wear it during festivals. Thank the master's gift.

It's nothing like the Rongguo Mansion, where maids and servants all wear silk and satin. It's really too much.

"Flowers burn like gold, fire boils like oil, but their eyes can only focus on what is in front of them. They all think that the Ning and Rong mansions are second to none in the world."

After saying this, Lin Daiyu snorted again. How could she not know what was going on? Wasn't it because the Jia family was stupid that they raised these servants to be young masters and young ladies? (End of this chapter)
