At night, the red lanterns outside the Lin Mansion are hung high, sweeping away the decadent scene on the mansion.

Since the Lin family was arrested and imprisoned, the servants and maids of the Lin Mansion have fled and scattered, and several pharmacies are also in a semi-open state. If it weren't for Zhang Cheng's control outside, I'm afraid the Lin family would have to be emptied.

So today, Lin Dafu wants to hold a banquet at home to thank his great benefactor Chen Xiaoting.

No matter what grievances everyone had before, but through Zhang Chenglin Dafu, he knew that he was able to come out thanks to Chen Xiaoting who helped him clear his grievances.

This not only saved him Lin Dafu alone, but saved the entire Lin family, how could he turn a blind eye to this kindness.

Of course, only my uncle Zhang Cheng can invite Chen Xiaoting for the Lin family.

But the people who came to the banquet today were not only Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng, but also their respective cronies.

From this point of view, tonight is not so much Lin Dafu's thank you banquet, but rather a social banquet between Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng and his subordinates.

The two bigwigs hadn't arrived yet, and Chen Xiaoting's respective subordinates had already arrived first, and they were all waiting at the gate of the mansion with Lin Dafu at this time.

This made the atmosphere a little awkward for a while, after all, they had conflicts and even confrontations with each other before, but now they have to drink together.

The people who can be present today are all real people, only Chen Xiaoting's side, there are Zhao Ying, Zheng Ding, Yun Qingfeng, Yu Youping, Yang Yuexing, Wei Wuding and Xiao Minzhong.

These people are either old friends or hardcore friends, so they are invited.

As for Wu Jun and Wang Ping'an, who have done a lot of things, they are separated from each other in their hearts anyway, so they can't be able to attend the meeting this time.

At this moment, Zhao Ying said, "Your Excellency has arrived!"

Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng came together, and everyone who was waiting in front of the mansion all took three steps forward to greet them.

"I've seen adults......" everyone said in unison.

Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng motioned for everyone to be exempted, and the captains stood up straight.

After sweeping this glance, Zhang Cheng felt the gap between himself and Chen Xiaoting.

Except for Zhao Ying and Zheng Ding, who are directly subordinates of Chen Xiaoting, others such as Yun Qingfeng and Yu Youping are all subordinates of other small flag officials, but these people are willing to be Chen Xiaoting's henchmen.

Just when Zhang Cheng's heart was unbalanced, Lin Dafu, as the master, stepped forward and said to the two: "Two adults, don't stand outside, please come in!"

When the lieutenants flashed to both sides, they could see that the door of the Lin family's mansion was wide open, and Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng didn't say much, so they walked straight to the Lin mansion.

Although he experienced the disaster of imprisonment and many servants and maids in the house escaped, Lin Dafu still made careful preparations for tonight's banquet.

After Chen Xiaoting Zhang Cheng was seated, a maid began to serve wine and food, and the plate was still steaming hot.

Chen Xiaoting, Zhang Cheng and Lin Dafu had one table, and the ten captains were divided into two tables, filling the main hall of the Lin family.

As the host, Lin Dafu stood up first, raised his glass and said to Chen Xiaoting: "Lord Chen, I offended you because of the medicinal materials some time ago, but who knew that you repaid your grievances with virtue and rescued my Lin family from prison......

"Such a great grace must be remembered in the future, and today I specially set up a thin wine to thank the adults for their kindness!"

Lin Dafu's statement was sincere, and after Chen Xiaoting picked up the wine glass, he said: "Boss Lin is serious!"

Although he didn't wait for him to say more, he raised his glass to Lin Dafu and Zhang Cheng, and drank all the wine in the cup.

Although Zhang Cheng and Lin Dafu also drank all the wine in the cup, Lin Dafu soon toasted the second and third glasses of wine to Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng with other eyes.

I have to say that he is a businessman, and he has a very good set at the wine table, and Chen Xiaoting is also touted by him.

When Chen Xiaoting put down his wine glass, he said to the lieutenants below: "What are you all still stunned for?" Watch the three of us drink? It's time to eat, drink! ”

Zhang Cheng also smiled at this time: "They are all their own brothers, you don't have to be too restrained!"

Lin Dafu is indeed a person who can do things, I saw that after he filled himself with a glass, he got up and walked in the direction of the captains.

I only heard Lin Dafu say: "Today's hospitality is not good, don't blame you...... Lin also salutes you with three glasses of wine! ”

Tonight's theme is drinking, Lin Dafu's real Chen Xiaoting's gratitude, and it will still be reflected in silver later.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere was completely set off, Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng also paid attention to the official etiquette, and the captains below were completely let go.

Among them, Zhao Ying was the most wild, and he was about to put it right when he hugged a lieutenant under Zhang Cheng, and said that when he was in the Lin family's pharmacy, he was very unhappy with the other party.

Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng laughed at this scene, while Lin Dafu sighed on the side: "If it weren't for the fake medicine, I really wouldn't know each other!"

But Lin Dafu continued: "But Lin hasn't figured out until now, how the good medicinal materials were replaced, and why he ate people to death in Luyang!"

The matter has come to an end, Chen Xiaoting said: "It is difficult to prevent thieves, Boss Lin needs to pay attention in the future, those who are not right-minded and have bad habits should not use it!"

Lin Dafu said: "Master Chen has taught him a lesson, but Lin still has a lot of doubts in his heart, and he can't understand how uncomfortable he feels in his heart!"

Seeing his eldest brother's sad face, Zhang Cheng said, "Is there anything else you don't understand?" The Liu family teamed up with the Yang family to frame you, and there is a Chen Licheng behind you, it's as simple as that! ”

Of course, it was very simple to say, but Lin Dafu said: "But the Ma Zhong they bought is just an ordinary steward, and he can't get access to the medicinal materials sent to Luyang at all!"

"What's more, if the ones sent to Luyang go through layers of checks, each batch will have to go through my hands...... There simply can't be a problem! Lin Dafu said cautiously.

Hearing this, Zhang Cheng said: "The so-called can't be prevented, if villains like Ma Zhong want to make trouble, there must be a way for him!" ”

What Zhang Cheng said was also what Chen Xiaoting thought, so he didn't speak at this time, but drank a glass of wine.

But Lin Dafu continued: "When the medicinal materials were transported from Guangde, the medicine box was locked and sealed, and I personally escorted them all the way to Luyang!" ”

"And the night before it was sent to Luyang Renhe Hall, I would personally unpack each batch of medicinal materials for someone to check to ensure that they were correct and seal them again!"

After Lin Dafu drank a glass of wine, he said: "So, even if Ma Zhong changes the medicinal materials, if there is a fake medicine at the last step, it will be discovered!" ”

This is indeed a suspicious point, so Chen Xiaoting asked: "Is the person who went to Luyang to open the box and check it reliable?" ”

Lin Dafu replied: "Reliable, these people are my Lin family's uncles, and their families are all dependent on the Lin family!" ”

Chen Xiaoting swept his gaze to Zhang Cheng, and Zhang Cheng said: "I have checked all these people, there is no problem!" ”

Even Zhang Cheng said that there is no problem, and those who want to come to check the medicinal materials are fine, so where will the problem be?

The matter can't be explained here, but this topic is not suitable for further study, so Chen Xiaoting changed the topic and said: "Okay, since you have been released from prison, don't talk about these bad things!" ”

Since Chen Xiaoting has set the tone for the conversation, Lin Dafu will not be bored, after all, the protagonist tonight is Chen Xiaoting.

The banquet continued as usual, the Lin family's drinks were enough, and they were destined not to get drunk tonight.

But while drinking a glass of wine, Chen Xiaoting's mind was no longer here, and Lin Dafu's words triggered his thinking.

The details of this case, from Hu Weide to Guangde to his death, to Zhang Zhenshan's investigation led by Zhang Zhenshan to the present, every detail has emerged in his mind.

People are always curious!
