17. Prepare for revenge (ask for recommendations, ask for collections)
During this time in the inn, he didn't encounter anything special, and his actions with Xue Pan did not cause any reaction from other families.
But when he saw Leng Zixing and them coming, Lin Chong's expression changed slightly, and some strangers appeared around them.
"Zixing, what's going on? Didn't you go back to protect your father? Why is it coming again? ”
A bad thought flashed in Lin Chong's heart, after all, it was safe here in Jinling, there was no need for them to come over, and the people behind him had never seen it.
"Back to the young master, master...... was dismissed from his official position, because Yangzhou was attacked by Mingjiao, and was pushed to the master by the Yangzhou prefect. ”
Leng Zixing looked at Lin Chong and sighed, but he still told the matter, although the master asked him to hide it, but he felt that with the young master's cleverness, he would think of it sooner or later.
Instead of letting the young master complain in the future, it is better to say it, if you can exterminate some people in the Ming Sect, maybe you can reinstate the old man.
"Then you people ......"
"Back to the young master, they are all the secret guards around the master, after all, the master is not only the imperial court's salt patrol imperial history, but also the husband of Jia Min, the young lady of Rongguo Mansion."
Leng Zixing looked at Lin Chong, in fact, he said that these guards were given to the master by the lady back then, and as the young master, you can completely trust them.
Lin Chong nodded when he heard it, it looked like there were more than thirty people, although he didn't know what their strength was, but his eyes did look very godly.
"Have you figured out the situation in Yangzhou? All the soldiers and horses of the Ming Sect there, as well as their locations. ”
Lin Chong's heart moved slightly, and he immediately asked them about the situation in Yangzhou, after all, they came from Yangzhou, so they should naturally know the deployment of the Ming Sect in Yangzhou.
"The distribution of Mingjiao in Yangzhou is very simple, they are like ordinary people everywhere in Yangzhou, and there is nothing special. But the problem is not with them, but with ...... Officialdom. ”
Leng Zixing looked at his young master and faintly told the truth of the matter, the old man's dismissal was not really because of Mingjiao, but because of the rejection of Yangzhou officialdom.
"Officialdom? It seems that they colluded with Mingjiao for the sake of temporary stability. ”
Lin Chong was slightly stunned when he heard this, if this is the case, then Yangzhou may not be able to go back for the time being, after all, the conspiracy of officialdom is not something that he can fight with as a child.
Leng Zixing and the others didn't dare to say anything when they heard the young master's words, such words were actually taboo in officialdom, so they could only hint at this matter.
"Since you have come to Jinling, then I will deal with it later. Originally, I wasn't going to do it, but now it looks like I have to do some business. ”
Lin Chong thought about it for a while, doing business here is to pull teeth out of the tiger's mouth, after all, this is the territory of the four major families, and it is impossible for them to allow others to interfere.
But now there is no way, if there is no financial support, then the training of these people will be left behind, and they will need their help in the face of Mingjiao in the future.
"Doing business...... Master, do you know how to do business? ”
Leng Zixing looked at him with a puzzled face, he knew that the young master's talent for martial arts was good, after all, after practicing that set of marksmanship for so many years, he was already superb.
But he has never seen anything about doing business, and even if he has money, he always buys some martial arts training things, or buys nutritious things to eat.
"What are you talking about, your young master can't do anything."
Lin Chong glanced at him, although he didn't do much business in his previous life, he also knew a lot about business, so what was so difficult.
"Uh...... In this case, one of the master's business can be handed over to you. If you don't lose money within two years, then you will take over all the business of the master. ”
Leng Zixing looked at Lin Chong and remembered what the master had said when they were leaving, if there was no money to support him in business, how could he be clean on his sleeves.
"What? Does my father have a business? ”
Lin Chong was taken aback, he had never heard of such a thing, he always thought that his father's money was all wages, or it was given privately by the Jia family, after all, his mother belonged to the Jia family.
"Well, in Jinling City, although it is not the biggest business, it is not difficult to earn a few thousand taels a month. It is not as good as the four major families, but the Lin family is also a big family. ”
Leng Zixing, as a housekeeper, naturally knows what is going on with his own business, and he is also taking care of his business in Jinling City.
"Oh, then...... Not good, if that's the case, then wouldn't Jia Yucun also know? ”
Lin Chong was stunned suddenly, although he didn't know if Jia Yucun was still alive, but after all, the other party was in collusion with the Ming Sect, and the business would be devastated.
"Haha, the young master's worries are not unreasonable. But the young master can think of it, do you think the master will also want it? ”
Leng Zixing laughed when he heard Lin Chong's words, but he didn't look ridiculous, after all, the young master could think of this level, and the master's worries were unnecessary.
"If Chong'er is worried about Jia Yucun's sale of the property, then the business affairs will be safely handed over to him, and the assistant of the shopkeeper will be fine. If you hear that taking over the business is just about caring about the business, then let him only take the money, and let the shopkeeper be responsible for the business, and give 30% of the profits to the shopkeeper. ”
This is what Lin Ruhai explained when they left, and this is also to prevent Lin Chong from being too reckless and ruining the Lin family's business, this kind of thing has happened too much.
"Well, that's good, then you guys have a good rest. We'll go tomorrow to see how the business is going, after all, I'm still very economical in spending money here. ”
Lin Chong pursed his lips, although Rongguo Mansion said that they had covered all the expenses here, but since Lin Chong felt that he was an outsider, he naturally wouldn't spend too much of their money.
"Yes, then we'll ......"
"Brother......
Suddenly, a voice interrupted their conversation, and they saw someone running in outside, and it was Lin Daiyu who ran in front, followed by a young man.
"Why are you here?"
Lin Chong was slightly stunned, and then looked at Leng Zixing and them, could it be that they sent someone to inform Lin Daiyu and tell her about their father?
But Leng Zixing shook his head, how could he tell Lin Daiyu about such a thing, a girl who knew such a thing might have to run back to Yangzhou.
"I heard that something happened to my father, Butler Leng, is this true?"
Lin Daiyu was a little anxious, and looked at Leng Zixing as she spoke, he is here now, and he should know something about Yangzhou, after all, he is the housekeeper of the Lin family.
"This ......"
"Brother Lin, junior brother Jia Baoyu, I have already told Sister Lin about Uncle Lin."
The young man in the back was Jia Baoyu, and he came out at this time so that they would not doubt the source of the news, after all, he knew a lot of things.
"It turned out to be Brother Jia, fortunately I will ...... it"
"I've seen Jia Gongzi ......"
Leng Zixing and they immediately saluted when they saw it, although they had always heard of the third son of the Jia family, they had never seen it, but fortunately they didn't do anything rude just now.
"Daiyu, you don't care about this matter, take care of it in Rongguo Mansion. Wait until you meet the old monk there again, and thoroughly cure your illness before talking about anything else. ”
Lin Chong looked at Lin Daiyu and asked her not to meddle in this matter, her illness has not recovered yet, once she fights with all her strength, something big may happen, so naturally she can't be allowed to do it.
"Brother......
"Shut up."
"I ......"
"Shut up."
"But ......"
"Shut up."
"Shut up and listen to me......"
"Oh, okay, you say it first, you say it first."
"I have three shops in my family, all of which make dim sum. I can transfer it to your name if you need to. ”
"What? Why do you have it so early? ”
Lin Chong looked at Lin Daiyu with a surprised face, he didn't know that there was a business at home until now, but his sister had three stores in his hands? Then he looked at Leng Zixing.
"This ...... The lord thinks that you are not a careful person, but the young lady has delicate ideas, so ......"
Leng Zixing was also a little embarrassed, such a thing could be regarded as concealing the young master, as a housekeeper who had a good relationship with Lin Chong, he felt a little shameless.
"Ah...... I know. ”
Lin Chong didn't care about him hiding himself when he saw Leng Zixing's appearance, after all, this was a must for him, and if he accidentally lost his family business, he would be even more sorry for his master.
"But you still have to go back, and the money from the three stores is your pocket money. After all, it was just our uncle's house, not our Lin family. ”
Lin Chong looked at his sister lightly, as a girl, if she wants to not rely on other people, the money in her hand is necessary at all times.
In the future, if there is any sign of defeat in Rongguofu, Lin Daiyu must leave immediately, and must not get involved in the affairs of Rongguofu's family, otherwise he will die sooner or later.
Although the current Lin Daiyu is different from what is recorded, the four major families are probably not the same, so naturally they still need to think about their sister.
"Brother Lin, I think ......"
"Brother Jia, I don't feel that my Lin family has not died yet, and my sister doesn't need to be raised by others."
Lin Chong looked at Jia Baoyu and smiled slightly, he actually didn't like Jia Baoyu, this guy not only had an affair with several women, but also seemed to be a good man.
Jia Baoyu didn't say anything when he saw Lin Chong's appearance, only showed a smile, and then retreated behind Lin Daiyu, without any anger on his face.
"Okay, Brother Jia, you can bring my sister back. I don't want her to know about my father in the future, and I don't think my father wants her to worry. ”
Lin Chong looked at Jia Baoyu, Jia Baoyu nodded, because Jia Baoyu also knew that Lin Chong was going to do something big, so he naturally wouldn't let Lin Daiyu get involved.
"Brother......
"Let's go, your brother has to do something big. If you really want to help him, then run your business well. If he has money, let him train his soldiers and horses so that he can help his uncle avenge him. ”
Jia Baoyu smiled slightly, and immediately helped Lin Daiyu, the back is a man's business, and her Lin Daiyu getting involved will only distract Lin Chong.
