When the sky was just dawning, the sun had not yet begun to scorch the entire earth, and there was still a hint of freshness in the occasional wind, and there was a knock on the door in the courtyard of the inn where Lin Ruhai and they were renting. Uncle Thirteen was on duty in the second half of the night, and before the people outside the door approached their courtyard, he noticed someone coming, hid in the tree in the courtyard and looked outside the courtyard, and saw Smith coming towards their courtyard gate, and arrived at the courtyard gate in a moment.

Uncle Thirteen quickly came down from the tree, woke up the old shadow and a few of them, and then walked outside Lin Ruhai's door and shouted, "Master, are you awake, Smith is here?"

There was a sound of rustling clothes in the room, and every once in a while, Lin Ruhai opened the door and came out and asked, "Why did he come so early?"

"It is estimated that I was busy raising gold and silver all yesterday, and I am afraid that you really didn't get the gold and silver compensation before you left today and killed him."

"Let him in, I'll wash up and go over"

As soon as Smith knocked on the courtyard door, the door opened from the inside, and the frightened Smith instinctively took two steps back. He looked at the thirteenth uncle who came to open the door in surprise, guessing whether they were unpredictable prophets or amazing speeds.

"Mr. Smith is here so early," Uncle Thirteen said with a playful laugh.

"Yes, yes, I'm afraid of delaying the trip of the Lord of Lin Island, is it too early, and the noise will make the Lord of Lin Island sleep."

"Our master asked you to come in and talk" Uncle Thirteen didn't plan to chat with Smith at the gate of this small courtyard, so he opened the courtyard door and invited him in.

Smith was taken to the hall of the small courtyard by the thirteenth uncle, and the eighth uncle brought him some refreshments. As soon as Smith wanted to take a sip of tea from the tea bowl, he heard Lin Ruhai's voice.

"Mr. Smith, did you have breakfast?"

Smith hurriedly put down the tea bowl in his hand, bent down respectfully and saluted, "I'm very sorry to disturb the rest of the Lord of the Forest Island, I am just afraid that I will be late and delay the trip of the Lord of the Forest Island." ”

"Uncle Eight and Uncle Thirteen went to see if the breakfast in the inn was ready, and brought some to use here, presumably Mr. Smith hasn't used breakfast yet, so he brought it with him at night."

"Thank you, Lord Lin, you're such a nice man," Smith smiled very flatteringly, causing the old Shadow to roll his eyes when he looked at it.

After a while, Uncle Eighty and Thirteen brought breakfast, Lin Ruhai invited Smith Road to sit at the table, and the two sat down speechlessly and finished their breakfast.

After Smith had eaten his fill, he felt a little more comfortable, and he unconsciously relaxed.

"Lord Lin, the compensation given to you should be 100,000 taels of gold and 100,000 taels of silver, but I can only raise 80,000 taels of gold and 100,000 taels of silver now. Can the remaining 20,000 taels of gold be offset by precious stones?"

"It depends on what kind of gem Mr. Smith is taking, you know that my requirements are very high, and I don't want non-best gems."

"Of course, this is of course, ordinary gems, I don't dare to show them to you, Lord Lin, I know that only those superb gems can enter your eyes," Smith said, took out two velvet bags from the pocket of his jacket, opened the bag, and took out the gems inside for Lin Ruhai to see.

Lin Ruhai was overjoyed to see the sea-blue diamond and blood-red diamond in Smith's hand, but he didn't expect that Smith had such a superb gem in his hand. The colored diamonds are deep and clear, and the blood-red diamonds are indeed gorgeous and dazzling, and the two diamonds are very large and of very good quality. Lin Ruhai's eyes were silent and his eyes were amazed, and his fingers tapped on the table to think.

Smith clenched his fists nervously, his heart jumped with the sound of Lin Ruhai tapping on the table, and when he felt that his heart was about to jump out in the next moment, Lin Ruhai said, "This piece of diamond is actually of little use to me, but since Mr. Smith is in trouble, then I will accept them and offset the 20,000 taels of gold you owe."

Smith's heart fell with Lin Ruhai's words, and he also fell to the ground, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, and said to Lin Ruhai with a smile, "Thank you Lord Lin for your understanding, I also want to apologize to you for this incident, and thank you for your generosity."

Lin Ruhai smiled slightly and didn't answer, and gave the old shadow a look, and the old shadow stepped forward to put away the two diamonds.

Smith, along with the eighth and thirteenth uncles, set off with a dozen carriages full of gold and silver. Smith volunteered to help bring the gold and silver to a dock on the east coast of Luzon, where the ship from Linjiadao was docked.

Not long after they left, Rotlett also came, saying that he was going to see Lin Ruhai off.

"Lord Lin Island, I think you also know about the Great Elder, what the Great Elder did this time is really too much, you didn't get angry with me, I am very grateful"

"The chief has said this wrong, this is the fault of the Great Elder and Smith, and it has nothing to do with you, Chief, I am not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong."

"Of course I know that Lord Lin is not that kind of person, and I really regard you as a friend."

"Now that we've become friends, don't say anything like that."

"Okay, here is a gift I have prepared for you, please accept it, I hope you will have time to come back to Luzon as a guest," Rotlett waved his hand, and the slaves who followed came up with several large and small rosewood boxes.

Lin Ruhai motioned to the old shadow to accept the gift and put it on their carriage, and then smiled and said to Rotlett, "Thank you for your hospitality, my biggest gain this time is to get to know your friend, and I sincerely invite you to come to our Lin Jia Island as a guest when you have time, and let me do my best to be a landlord."

"Okay, well, I'll definitely go and see the legendary Linjia Island when I'm free," Rotlett said with a smile.

After Lin Ruhai said goodbye to Rotlett, he boarded the carriage and headed for the east coast of Luzon.

The old shadow on the carriage asked Lin Ruhai, "Master, this chief is really strange, he has allowed the Great Elder to strengthen his strength, and he has endured it for so many years, why did he suddenly deal with the Great Elder this time?"

"This is the so-called Imperial Technique, while he indulges the Great Elder for personal gain, the Great Elder also helps him deal with some people who oppose him. And once the Great Elder's actions reached the bottom line that he could tolerate, then he could take the Great Elder's hard-earned gains for so many years as his own with timely action. Of course, this also needs to grasp a right, no more or less points will not work" The content of the chapter is being restored, please visit it later.
