Chapter 83: Warrior, spare my life!
Time is tight and the task is heavy, Lin Zhiqing has no time to think about anything else.

After confirming that it was Lin Jiusi in the room, she gently pushed the door open.

The laughter and chatter inside the door suddenly stopped. Except for Lin Jiusi, everyone else looked as if they had seen a ghost.

Lin Jiusi had his back to Lin Zhiqing, holding a glass of wine and talking loudly. There were several ingots of silver on the table.

Not only that, several managers also fawned over the officials, completely unlike their usual honest and responsible behavior.

However, the moment they saw Lin Zhiqing, their hands were still in order and their mouths were closed, leaving only confusion on their faces.

"What are you standing there for? Am I wrong? What's wrong with you?" Lin Jiusi was a little dissatisfied when he saw that everyone had stopped moving.

He felt extremely aggrieved when he thought about how Lin Zhiqing had been in the spotlight these past few days. "That idiot Lin Zhiqing! His father did that. If it weren't for the Lin family, she would have been forced to become a courtesan long ago...ah!"

Lin Zhiqing retracted his foot and looked at everyone with a look as if he were looking at a dead person.

"Who is it? Who dares to attack this young master?" Lin Jiusi was kicked and fell to the ground, sobering up a lot.

Before he could get up from the ground, he felt a piercing coldness on his neck.

Looking down, he saw a delicate little dagger pressed against his neck. He screamed and immediately dared not move.

"You... who are you? How dare you commit a crime here?" Several managers also reacted, and they immediately shrank into the corner, pointing at Lin Zhiqing and began to question him.

"If you don't want to die, get out of here!" Lin Zhiqing no longer had time to waste talking to these people.

There are people outside that Lin Shian and I have arranged in advance, and they can't escape even if they go out.

But his identity must not be revealed here.

"Don't... don't go. What should I do if you leave?" Lin Jiusi was pressed to the ground and was really anxious.

Lin Zhiqing pushed his head down impatiently: "My people are already down there. If you don't leave now, don't blame me for being blind!"

Hearing this, one of the managers went out to take a look.

There was chaos downstairs.

The sounds of crying, shouting, and fighting all came at once, making one's head buzz.

In order to facilitate meetings, the room they were in was specially built so that no sound could be heard.

This is also the reason why they didn't hear anything just now.

Several managers looked at each other, and they all saw one thing in each other's eyes: life is important, so they immediately decided - run!

Several people disappeared in an instant. Hearing their fleeing footsteps, Lin Jiusi slapped the floor and wanted to curse.

"Shut up!" Lin Zhiqing pressed down with his dagger, and a thin line of blood immediately appeared on Lin Jiusi's neck.
"Let me ask you, is this Qianjin Pavilion a property of the Lin family?"

Feeling the pain, Lin Jiusi's body softened and his voice trembled: "No... no, brave man, don't... don't kill me, I'll tell you everything."

"The Lin family deserves to die! If it's not the Lin family's property? Then why did I hear the madam call you the boss?" Lin Zhiqing asked calmly:
"Also, why are the Lin family's stewards sitting at the same table with you? And even giving you money?"

Lin Jiusi thought that someone had a grudge against the Lin family and was looking for revenge, so he immediately pulled himself out of the Lin family:
"This Qianjin Pavilion is the property of my grandfather and me. It has nothing to do with the Lin family. Those managers only use it for us because they see that my grandfather and I are capable. I am telling the truth. Don't kill me!"

Lin Zhiqing frowned. "Do you think what you said is true? Do you have any evidence? The Lin family is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. They deserve to die. They really deserve to die!"

"Yes, of course!" Although Lin Jiusi felt that the gangster was a little strange, he didn't care about anything else when he thought of the knife hanging on his neck.

"The deed of Qianjin Pavilion is hidden behind that cabinet. It can be found in the government archives. I didn't lie." Upon hearing this, Lin Zhiqing let go of Lin Jiusi and walked towards the cabinet.

Lin Jiusi didn't expect that he would be freed so easily. The frightened look in his eyes suddenly changed.

He stood up and tried to lift the stool to fight back, but as soon as he raised his hand, he felt powerless.

His limbs went limp and he fell to the ground again, maintaining the same posture.

What's going on? Lin Jiusi was horrified.

"Don't bother." Lin Zhiqing no longer deliberately lowered his voice and said, "The dagger is smeared with poison. You can't get up no matter how hard you try."

Once she makes preparations, she won't just make preparations in one place.

What was smeared on the dagger was not poison, but cartilage powder, which she specifically asked Lu Nanyue for.

Lu Nanyue learned that Lin Zhiqing's cartilage powder was used for self-defense, so she increased the dosage.

One is better than six.

Just one touch and you can enjoy the feeling of your body disappearing and floating in the air.

Lin Zhiqing searched the cabinet but did not find the land deed that Lin Jiusi mentioned.

Lin Jiusi was really scared at this moment: "You...you are so cruel. If you kill me, my grandfather will not let it go."

"Where is the contract?" Lin Zhiqing squatted down and tapped Lin Jiusi's face with a dagger.

Lin Jiusi's Adam's apple moved. He felt like a fish on a chopping board. If he didn't tell the truth, he would definitely die!

A deed was nothing. He stared at the table with wide eyes.

Lin Zhiqing raised his eyebrows, stood up and checked around the table. After confirming that there were no traps, he knocked on the floor under the table.

After the "dong dong" sound came out, Lin Zhiqing's eyes lit up, it was indeed empty!
She pried open the floorboards with a dagger and took out everything inside.

Deeds, account books, banknotes, everything.

She thought about it and took out all the things.

Since it is associated with the remnants of mountain bandits, this Qianjin Pavilion will most likely not be able to open. It is better to take it away than to keep it.

She moved quickly, and after finishing all this, she returned to Lin Jiusi:
"Let me ask you, where did this girl from Qianjin Pavilion come from?"

Lin Jiusi rolled his eyes and felt that the voice was inexplicably familiar. And why was the gangster asking this?

Lin Zhiqing didn't have the time or the energy to explain to him, so he just patted his face and said, "Take a good look at who I am."

Lin Jiusi's eyes moved, and then widened: "Lin Zhiqing! Why are you here!"

"You're so bold! You actually dared to attack me! I tell you, uncle, you're definitely not going to get away with it!"

"Worry about yourself first. The imperial court is down there. They say there are remnants of bandits in your Qianjin Pavilion." Lin Zhiqing lowered his voice.
"Let me ask you, where have you found all the girls in the past three months?"

Lin Jiusi was completely immersed in the anger of being fooled, and he didn't believe what Lin Zhiqing said at all: "You are lying. What are you talking about? I don't understand at all."

"You just want to take my Qianjin Pavilion for yourself!"
