When most of the county towns in Liekou County had not yet woken up from their sleep, there were four large mansions in the city that were already busy, especially in the courtyard of the royal family in the west of the city, where five or six families were moving bags of grain from the warehouse, weighing them and loading them onto the carriage outside the door. And the Wang family's bookkeeper counted each amount attentively, moving the balls in the bucket from time to time.

"Master, yesterday our several rounds of price reductions were lower than those three, the grain shops have been sold out, these grains in front of us are the rations of our Wang family, sir, do you want to do it again...."On the steps of the main house, the housekeeper of the Wang family half-bowed and said to Wang Lin cautiously, it seems that this is not the first time he has said this to his master.

Wang Lin glared at him, "You don't need to say it anymore, the Wang family's usual food storage is higher than theirs, and they are no better than me." Right now, that's enough food for us to drag them out until they run out of food! “

"I don't know which thief took their benefits and did the ghost leak our news, if I find out, I have to cramp him!" Wang Lin gritted his teeth and said. Based on his understanding of the grain stored in the three grain stores, the food originally prepared was enough to collapse them, but he didn't expect them to get the news in advance and make some preparations, although they had a short time to prepare, but they also survived yesterday. The Wang family not only did not defeat them, but sold out the grain in their shop, which made Wang Lin's wishful thinking come to naught. And all this is due to the inner demon, how can he not hate.

Wang Lin's words made the housekeeper shudder. He has followed Wang Lin for a long time, and since Wang Lin took over the Wang family, the methods he has used along the way can be described as fierce and vicious. Don't talk about it, let's take the matter of attacking the Lin family this time. The ancestors of the Lin family were very kind to the Wang family, but Wang Lin coveted the Lin family's operation of the maritime industry in Fenglin Town, and also wanted to share a piece of the pie, but the Lin family did not agree. After coming back, Wang Lin tried to find a way to attack the Lin family, but there was no good opportunity. A few months ago, Lin Wei went to Jixian County, Youzhou, and Wang Lin began to plan as soon as he saw that the time had come. What he didn't expect was that Wang Lin not only took away the Lin family's property, but also planned to wipe out the Lin family, and he didn't miss the old favor at all. It is conceivable that if anyone who dares to harm the interests of his Wang family falls into the hands of Wang Lin, he does not know how tragic the end will be. It can be said that to do this kind of person's hands, the housekeeper is always worried, if one day he accidentally does something wrong, the loss of his life is considered light, with Wang Lin's temper, his family will also suffer.

However, in terms of business governance alone, Wang Lin is indeed a figure, and there is no one else in this county who can compare with him. And the steward is also a small ambitious and resourceful person, he believes that according to the current management of Wang Lin, according to the Wang family, it will be able to develop into the county in a few years, and then he will also have more opportunities and space to show his management talents. That's why he has been waiting by Wang Lin's side like walking on thin ice.

"The thief is an abomination. The old man is angry for the time being, this person can know such a confidential matter, and it is not difficult to find out if he is a suspicious person!" The butler said confidently.

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you, and find out this dog stuff as soon as possible!"

After the housekeeper promised, he thought for a moment and said to Wang Lin: "Master, I don't know if I should say something?" “

Although Wang Lin was a little upset at this time, he also knew that this housekeeper had a lot of brains, and he had paid a lot of attention to him for so long, so he calmed down and nodded to him.

"Master, although we have more food in stock than any of them, it is not a problem to bring them down. But if they make a trick to combine the grain of the three families into one, then wouldn't we..." The butler did not finish the rest of the sentence, and he did not want to provoke the master in front of him by saying something unpleasant at this juncture. Besides, Wang Lin naturally knew what he was going to say next.

When Wang Lin heard this, he laughed instead of anger.

"Sir? Why is that? "This master's temperament and steward have also figured it out for so many years, but now Wang Lin's reaction is greatly beyond his expectations.

Wang Lin saw that the housekeeper looked worried and puzzled, and said in a gentle tone: "Are you very confused why I am not angry? ”

Seeing that Wang Lin's expression calmed down, the housekeeper let go of the worry in his heart, and nodded, "Yes, master?" ”

"Last night, I went to the county magistrate and wanted him to come forward to help my Wang family, but I didn't expect the heads of the other three families to come there before me, and it was the same purpose as me." Speaking of this, Wang Lin took out a document from his long sleeve and said, "This is what I brought back last night, and each of the four families has the same copy, you understand it all after reading it?" “

The housekeeper took the paperwork, hurriedly unfolded it, and said with a smile: "The master is wise!" It seems that the villain is overly worried. With this document, if the three families really want to do it like the villain said, the villain should congratulate the master in advance! “

It turned out that last night, the four families all approached the county order, and they all said that they were selling grain at a lower price to benefit the people, and asked him to help them. But the county magistrate knew that these four families and two parties were not easy to mess with, and no one could help them. But people are righteous deeds, and no one helps them, but they all offend. I couldn't think of a way to do both things for a while, so I quit the four of them and came to the backyard alone to discuss with his master, but the two of them also came up with a way for a long time. It happened that at this time, Lao Zhang, who was about to change the guard and guard the city gate, came to ask him for an order. The two also knew that Lao Zhang was more flexible, and he was the so-called sick and rushed to the doctor, so they informed Lao Zhang of their problems.

Lao Zhang didn't know much about these four on weekdays, and after listening to it, he thought for a while and said: "My lord, in your opinion, if you provoke no one to help, which one has the greatest chance of winning?" “

This official only knows how to spend all his time drinking, and he has carefully checked the bottom of these four families on weekdays, and there is naturally no standard for judging at this time, so he moved his eyes to the master and threw the question to him.

"Is this this, naturally it is more likely that the Wang family will have the last laugh!" The master replied without thinking, "Could it be that Brother Zhang wants the adults to help the Wang family?" “

"Neither nor not!" In fact, judging from the current situation, helping the Wang family is indeed the best choice. The Wang family already had the advantage, and if the county order helped it again, it would be a sure thing for the Wang family to win. But Lao Zhang thought that if it was really the Wang family who won and monopolized the grain store in the county, and acted like the black-hearted businessmen of the Wang family, then the people in the city would not have a good life in the future.

The county magistrate saw that Lao Zhang actually sold a bend in front of him, not to mention how hot it was, but now he himself is burning his eyebrows, and he still suppresses the fire in his heart, and his face is still a little unhappy, "Is it difficult for me to help the other three?" “

"Neither."

Lao Zhang went around for a long time, but came to such a result, the county master really couldn't bear it anymore, "You dare to play this county!" Come, pull this down and beat him up. “

Lao Zhang hurriedly knelt down and said, "My lord, please let me finish my words." If you can't solve your immediate needs after hearing it, how do you want to punish it, but there is time 1"

"Say?"

"My lord, no matter which side of them wins, it is sure that after winning, their strength will increase greatly, but then the adult will be in a more difficult situation than he is now. And now that the two sides are competing, why don't you take this opportunity to weaken the strength of the four families?" Lao Zhang saw that the county order was really angry, and hurriedly said what he thought.

After hearing the county order, he suddenly came to a spirit, "How to weaken?" Tell me about it! “

"Aren't they claiming to be doing good things for the people? Adults can completely follow their wishes and issue an official document stipulating that whichever family benefits the people for a long time and has more food, the government will set up a merit monument for his family. And whoever has the shortest time is a profiteer under the pretense of a charity sale, and the government will ban his permission to sell grain. And the adults secretly promised the four families that they would help them in their most difficult times, and explained that they could not come up with this method. In this way, none of the four will withdraw early. Of course, the weakest one naturally can't last long, and the adults really help the weak, so it will be difficult for the four families to decide the winner in a short time, and the longer this time drags on, the greater the loss of the four families, maybe their families will all fall into it. At first, the adults need to pay a small price and wait for the fisherman's profit. Second, the people of the city have also received real benefits, and after the fact, the people will secretly release the news that the person who has benefited them is the adult, and the adult will win the hearts of the people in the city. After Lao Zhang finished speaking in one breath, the county magistrate was so happy that his face was hot. So there was the document in Wang Lin's hand.

Wang Lin took back the paperwork and said proudly: "That's natural, none of these three families can run away this time." It seems that I can be safe in the affairs of this city, but I don't know what happened to the Lin family? "I think that Wang Lin's mind is not an idle person, and if he thinks about the plan of the county order, he will see some clues. In the end, he was too conceited and underestimated the county order, not to be exact, he didn't expect that someone in this county would give the county order such a clever strategy. Naturally, he decided that the Wang family would undoubtedly win this time, and he believed in the promise of the county order as if he had been blinded by lard.

However, when the butler was happy, he still had a vague feeling that something was wrong, and it was not very clear where it was, and seeing that the master was so happy, he naturally did not dare to tell him this unfounded intuition.

"By the way, Lao Chen, I've been up for a while, why don't you see Wang Fu, where have the others gone, shouldn't they still be sleeping?" Wang Lin suddenly asked Steward Chen.

"Hehe, master, you are wrong to blame the second master this time, he got up at dawn and went to visit those thugs outside the city. He also said that the village of Yuncheng Zhou will collect some grain, maybe he will bring you good news back in a while? ”

When Wang Lin heard this, he gave a wet smile, "Oh, I don't expect good news, as long as he doesn't cause trouble, I'll be content." Let's go, let's go to the shop to have a look, and then make good arrangements, once the time is ripe on the Lin family's side, I will be able to pull away! “

Steward Chen heard Wang Lin's words and knew that Wang Lin's final blow to the Lin family was about to begin, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. But he still said with a slap on his lips: "The master is resourceful, how can the Lin family be your opponent." Under your careful planning, this Lin family has now become the meat of the sword, why do you need to go out in person for such a thing of cutting vegetables? ”

Wang Lin's face suddenly became even more proud, "Hahahaha, when did Steward Chen learn to pat on the back." ”

"This..."Wang Lin smiled like this, and Steward Chen's old face blushed.

"But it's a very useful shot." Wang Lin, you said to Steward Chen, "I just want to see what happened to the Lin family who turned me away from the door with good intentions, don't you think this is such a happy thing?" “

After Wang Lin finished speaking, he walked straight out of the door. The butler didn't think much of it and immediately followed. I don't know if it's Lin Feng, their secrecy work is really good, or if this Wang family is too light on the enemy. Wang Lin, who thought he was in control, could never have imagined that after tomorrow, the Wang family would disappear from the column.
