Lin Chonghan pulled out his sword, and when the sword was pulled out of Li Tu's body, it brought out a few drops of blood.

Blood splattered to the ground, and Li Tu covered his wound in disbelief, his lips buzzing to say something, but after a while, he could only collapse in vain holding his abdomen.

By now, his vitality has been completely cut off.

Lin Chonghan held a sword in his right hand, and on the sword was Li Tu's blood and a life, and she said: "Those who dare to leave Suzhou City at this time will end up like this." ”

The crowd shuddered.

They are just businessmen in the end, no matter how many things they deceive in the business field, they have experienced a few lives on their hands, but they have never encountered such a ruthless person who dares to kill people in person.

What's more, this is still a pampered county lord.

She walked up to the top with her sword in her hand and sat down gracefully, placing her sword casually on the table beside her.

"You are all sensible people," Lin Chonghan said slowly, "I also know that you just want to find a way to live for yourself." ”

Her serious and sharp eyes swept over everyone: "You can indeed leave Suzhou, but after leaving, who can guarantee that you will not encounter homeless people and rebels on the road?" ”

"Will you be able to guarantee your own life then?"

Everyone present lowered their heads, not daring to make eye contact with her, and secretly pondered her statement in their hearts, and found that there was indeed some truth.

"What's more," Lin Chonghan took in the various expressions on their faces, and he also had a little calculation in his heart, "Not to mention that it is easy to die if you leave your hometown, you are really willing to give up your career in Suzhou?" ”

Chu Liuniang took the lead in shouting hello, she has been working in Suzhou for more than ten years to achieve today's achievements, and she is really reluctant to let these shops go.

The businessman on the side saw that she was the first to slap the nobleman's ass, and he couldn't help but scold her in his heart, and he soon followed closely without outdone.

The merchant's mouth is really the most untrustworthy thing in the world, and in a few words, Lin Chonghan boasted that there is nothing in the sky and no earth.

Lin Chonghan went in and out of her left ear and right ear for these flattering words, she smiled and didn't speak, until the merchants were a little tired, and then she Shi Shiran spoke: "It seems that your thoughts are consistent with the county lord, and you must resolutely stay in Suzhou City and live and die with Suzhou." ”

Several people looked at each other for a moment, and Song Chen took the lead in standing up, arching his hand, and said, "Yes." Although we are just a businessman, we are not people without conscience, and we will certainly not disappoint the high expectations of the county lord. ”

The matter was resolved far more smoothly than Lin Chonghan thought, but it was also in her plan, she looked at the corpse of Li Tu on the ground, and seemed to think of something.

She asked casually, as if casually: "The head of the Song family, I remember that there should be more than these rich businessmen in Suzhou City, right?" ”

"Returning to the county lord," Song Chen was in a cold sweat when she asked, for fear that if she was unhappy in the next second, she would kill herself, "Some of the rest of the people have a cold, and some are too busy to leave, and they hope that the county lord will forgive them." ”

Lin Chonghan pretended not to hear these clumsy excuses, and she even had the leisure to make a joke: "Since this is the case, then that's it, as long as you don't secretly go out of the city behind the back of the county lord." ”

Thinking of Li Tu, whose bones on the ground were not cold, Song Chen swallowed his saliva and said with a smile: "This naturally won't." Don't worry, the villain will definitely help you convey your meaning. ”

"The head of the Song family is a smart person," Lin Chonghan nodded, and she promised at the same time, "But you don't have to worry too much, this county lord is not the kind of person who only set fire to the state officials." ”

She said: "The lord of this county will not leave Suzhou City without permission, and my brother is still outside to suppress bandits, so he will not let Suzhou City fall into trouble." ”

Chu Liuniang's eyes lit up slightly, and she asked, "The brother of the county lord, is it the famous hussar general in Qiantang Mansion?" ”

Lin Chonghan also noticed the businesswoman, she nodded and asked, "Do you know him?" ”

"The prestige of the hussar general," Chu Liuniang said, "who in the entire Gusu Mansion and Qiantang Mansion does not know?" The concubine had a batch of goods that were robbed by the widows, but the general helped the concubine find them. ”

At this moment, Nan'an, who had been sitting silently next to him, suddenly spoke, and he said: "The county lord, the villain is not talented, and he is willing to give up part of his family assets to support the soldiers and the people outside the city. ”

Everyone was shocked, and many people secretly scolded the cunning of this guy on the south bank in their hearts after hearing it, they had been afraid that Lin Chonghan would bring up this matter, but they didn't expect that there would be a traitor in their own people.

Lin Chonghan glanced at him with some surprise, she did have plans to let the merchant provide grain, and she was also thinking about where to start, but she didn't expect Nan'an to be so knowledgeable.

"The family and the country are in trouble," Nan'an arched, "and we businessmen should also do the same." ”

Is he willing to give up his family's wealth? No, Nan'an was reluctant, but he had already seen that Lin Chonghan had already had the idea of wanting the merchant to bleed, otherwise it would not be worth her to come in person.

Now that the superior has decided, all they can do is to try to be as interesting as possible, in the hope of gaining some advantage from it.

"Nangongzi Gaoyi," Lin Chonghan didn't intend to let them do this in vain, "Of course, the imperial court will not be stingy in praising meritorious people. ”

She said: "The lord of this county has already agreed with the prefect that he intends to build a monument of merit in the city of Suzhou, and all merchants who donate grain will be named on the monument. ”

When Song Chen heard this, his spirit was suddenly shocked, his head didn't hurt for a while, his mouth didn't hurt anymore, and the whole person looked energetic.

He asked cautiously and deliberately, "County Lord, is this matter serious?" If the villain donates food, can he go up to this merit monument? ”

Lin Chonghan nodded, and she added: "However, on this merit tablet, it is natural that those who donate more food will come first, and at that time, the county lord will also write a special letter to His Majesty to commend you." ”

Nan'an's eyes were blazing, and he didn't expect this kind of windfall.

That's the emperor, the true dragon emperor! Thinking that his name might be seen by the emperor, Song Chen almost fainted with excitement.

He took the lead in expressing his position and said: "County Lord, the villain is willing to donate!" There is still a lot of surplus grain in the villain's warehouse, and he can donate twenty stones! ”

Good guy, even Chu Liuniang glanced at Song Chen in surprise, she didn't expect this old man to save so much food in a quiet day.

To know that he can donate twenty stone means that his grain stock far exceeds this amount.

Lin Chonghan bowed, she immediately asked Spring to spread out the paper and write the number of donated food and the name of the person on it.

Seeing his name being written on that thin piece of paper, Song Chen was dizzy with excitement, as if he had seen his name being presented to the emperor's desk.

Oh, he thought happily, after this time, should he open an ancestral hall to worship his ancestors and tell his ancestors about it?

Since Song Chen had already taken the lead and donated twenty stones, the merchants below also followed suit, donating more and less.

However, in just five or six merchants, Lin Chonghan had already scraped together seventy stones in a blink of an eye.
