After marrying a rough man, I played mahjong to support Shoufu

Chapter 80

40 years ago, the Lin family's fortunes fell, and they returned to their hometown in desperation and lived in a muddy, dilapidated small courtyard.

After so many years of hard work by Lin Manjiang, the house that used to leak when it rained has turned into a small courtyard with black bricks and black tiles, and the savings in the family are increasing day by day.

And at this moment, everything in front of him seemed to be leaving him. Lin Manjiang stood in the courtyard like a dead tree, old and wilted.

Seeing that her father seemed to have been taken away, Lin Yulian felt very unhappy. She said loudly, "Father, you can't believe everything that little bitch says. You should go to the mountain to find out."

Lin Manjiang raised his head slowly, pondering his thoughts, he was almost led by the nose in today's confrontation with Shen Xian, and all of this was too coincidental, as if it was specially designed to kill the Lin family.

"You're right, this little girl has a treacherous mind, you can't believe it all, this Wumu Peak still has to send someone to go."

As soon as Lin Manjiang finished speaking, the door of the courtyard was suddenly knocked open, and the shop assistant ran in scrambling.

"Shopkeeper, it's bad, our goods were intercepted by bandits!"

"What did you say!" Lin Manjiang's eyes were tearing, his thin palms tightly grasped the man's collar, and said fiercely: "Say it again!"

The man rushed all the way to deliver the letter. At this moment, he was sweating profusely from exhaustion and said out of breath: "On the official road just now, our caravan met a bandit. It’s not his opponent, the goods are all thrown on the official road.”

"Trash!" Lin Manjiang threw the buddy to the ground when he heard these words. He believed in Shen Xian's words at this moment, and this Lin Hu obviously planned to tear his face apart.

Fear finally appeared in Lin Yulian's eyes, and she said worriedly: "Father, what should we do? Are we really going to be led by the nose by that little bitch?"

Lin Manjiang clenched his fists tightly, his brows twisted into the word Chuan, and he let out a trembling breath.

"This is a disgrace to the Lin family. When the old man makes a comeback, she must look good!"

Just as the so-called house leak coincided with continuous rain, the bad news from the clerk had just arrived, and immediately after that, shopkeepers who cooperated with the Lin family on weekdays also came to the door one after another.

"Shopkeeper Lin, I heard that the goods you escorted were intercepted this time, and even our goods are gone. There are so many losses here and there, how can we compensate for it!"

"That's right, we entrusted you to the Lin family to deliver the goods, but we paid for it. You swore that everything would be safe, and now you have to pay for it!"

Lin Manjiang looked at these shopkeepers who had been submissively begging him to help deliver the goods in the past, and turned their faces so quickly, showing a sneer on his face.

But now is not the time to attack, this scene has to continue to be sung.

"Everyone, listen to me."

Lin Manjiang arched his hands with a sigh of relief and said: "I already know what everyone said. In the final analysis, this incident was caused by the bandits. As the saying goes, the disease cannot be cured, and the medicine is hard to cure. As long as the bandits are wiped out, Your goods will naturally be recovered."

"Mr. Lin, what you said is as if you didn't say it. If the government has the ability to suppress bandits, we still need to suffer from this bird."

"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Lin, don't worry about other things."

The four or five shopkeepers in front of the door were of different sizes and sizes, and they all opened their mouths to ask Lin Manjiang for compensation for the loss.

Lin Manjiang showed a righteous attitude and said: "Everyone, I will definitely recover your goods for you. Lin is willing to spend all his family wealth and recruit young and strong bandits from the county. I hope everyone will tell the truth."

When the shopkeepers heard this, they looked at each other. Everyone was in business and knew that businessmen valued profits, and they knew exactly how treacherous Lin Manjiang was.

But at this moment, Lin Manjiang understands righteousness so well, and benefits the world at the expense of himself, the contrast is really big.

"Isn't Mr. Lin just joking and using such words to prevaricate us?" Shopkeeper Lin, who was in the leather business, stroked his mustache and looked at him suspiciously.

Lin Manjiang had no expression on his face, he didn't want to waste any more words, and said slowly: "The old man is going to the county government office to discuss with Lu county magistrate about donating money to suppress the bandits. "

"Okay! Let's have a walk with Mr. Lin. If Mr. Lin is really willing to spend all his wealth to suppress the bandits, then I will admire this old man, and I will definitely help Mr. Lin make a comeback in the future!"

"That's right, Mr. Lin's deed is a great charity to his descendants."

The shopkeepers changed their aggressive posture just now and began to advocate Lin Manjiang.

Lin Manjiang strode towards the door, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he couldn't keep his hard-earned property, and now he could only lose money and yell.

At this time, Shen Xian, who had left the Lin family, had already arrived at the county seat, found a shop that sold brushes and ink, bought pens and paper, spread them on the square table in the teahouse and sketched, and drew the general arrangement of bandits on Wumu Peak.

Although she created a defense map of Wumufeng before, but in order to find Zhao Tieshu, she deleted the defense map from the store. Probably come.

Fortunately, this time to suppress the bandits, the defense map is not the key point, this thing is just to fool Lin Manjiang.

"Good news, good news, Mr. Lin Manjiang of Yongle Village spent all his wealth to recruit young and strong bandits, ten taels of silver per person, and recruited a hundred people in total!"

As soon as Shen Xian put away the blueprints, he heard shouts coming from the street. Looking sideways, a young man in green clothes was opening the way to publicize. Not far behind, Lin Manjiang walked over with a few shopkeepers.

"This old guy can really stop losses. It seems that he intends to earn a good reputation and make a comeback in the future."

Shen Xian was lying on the window edge, dragging his chin with one hand, his chubby face extruded a round arc on the side of the palm.

A group of people hurried through the street and rushed to the county government office. Many of the accompanying people were watching the excitement.

Shen Xian followed from a distance, and followed the team to the county government office. After all, Lin Manjiang couldn't sing this play even if she didn't listen to her.

In front of the county yamen, rotten eggs with vegetables and leaves were thrown all over the floor. After several days of drying in the sun, they were faintly stinky. Lin Manjiang couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose when he walked to the door.

"Open the door! Open the door! The good people of the Lin family have donated money to suppress the bandits!"

Before Lin Manjiang opened his mouth to speak, the enthusiastic crowd had already shouted for him.

The yamen servant inside the door was at a loss, thinking that these miserable masters really worked hard to open the door for them.

County magistrate Lu sat blankly in front of the messy desk, his eyes haggard. Since the fiasco of suppressing the bandits, he hasn't slept well all day.

The noise of tilting his head disturbed him.

"What are you doing so loudly with your head tilted! I've already told them about the government's difficulties, so the spit Xingzi just said it, and they're still arguing outside!"
