Chapter 161

Time quietly.

In a blink of an eye, summer is coming.

Early this morning, Solanum nigrum got up as usual to help out and prepare for the cooking.

But before Lin Fan, the master chef, showed his skills, the old butler came to him.

"Master, a group of people outside the door who call themselves Zhen Wusi came to see you."

The old housekeeper reported respectfully.

"A person from Zhen Wusi?"

Lin Fan subconsciously glanced at Solanum nigrum, then nodded and said, "Let them go to the living room."

"Yes!"

The old butler responded and went down to make arrangements.

"Your subordinates are here, they should be here to pay you the ransom."

Lin Fan smiled and said something to Solanum nigrum.

Solanum nigrum nodded slightly, and also guessed why she was here, but she was not as happy as she imagined.

paid the ransom,

She can leave now.

But after living for this period of time, she felt a little bit of reluctance.

Lin Fan didn't think about it so much, he smiled at the other party and walked towards the living room.

In the living room.

Zhen Wusi led the team this time, it was his old friend God Chaser, but because of the happy cooperation between the two parties, he made a lot of contributions, and now he is the deputy commander.

Although it is a deputy.

But it is from the rank of the third rank.

Officials of this rank can be called senior officials, and they are called big officials of the frontier outside.

However, he didn't have any airs of authority. When he saw Lin Fan, he bowed his hands politely and greeted him.

"Master Lin."

"Master Chaser."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The two sides greeted each other with smiles. Lin Fan also had a good sense of this partner.

Not to mention the life-chasing who was promoted to the deputy commander. These days, he has learned about Lin Fan's power and power, and he has already paid more attention to it. Although he came here with a mission, he doesn't mind taking this opportunity to get close.

Get in touch many times.

He has already determined that Lin Fan is his nobleman.

As for offending the tax department of the imperial court, that is the tax department's business, so what does it have to do with his Zhen Wusi?

"Master Lin, we are all old friends now, so I won't say too many hypocritical words. The higher-ups asked me to escort a batch of things and said they were for you. Here is the list, please check it first."

After the two parties exchanged pleasantries, Zhui Ming directly explained his purpose and handed over a list of items.

The higher-ups arranged to escort things to Lin Fan, but he didn't know, and he didn't want to know, as long as they were delivered safely.

After all, the task is arranged.

It is an existence with invaluable status.

"It's work."

Lin Fan didn't pay attention to these, nodded and took the list of items.

The above things are all proposed by him, so they are naturally quite familiar.

But when he saw the back, he found something was wrong.

Not less.

But a lot more.

Confirming that he was not mistaken, Lin Fan's eyes flickered slightly.

These things are the ransom prepared by Emperor Wu, and now they have given too much, what does this mean?
And give many things,
They are all in pairs, such as a pair of jade ruyis, a pair of golden locks and so on.

"What does Emperor Wu want to do? Could it be that he really gave his daughter a dowry?"

Lin Fan took the inventory and pondered for a while, this is a bit strange.

"Master Lin, is there a problem with the list?"

Seeing Lin Fan frowning in thought, Zhui Ming asked nervously.

Lin Fan shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with the list, it just looks a little too much."

"Haha! Isn't it a good thing?"

Zhui Ming laughed out loud, less is a trouble, but more is definitely a good thing.

"That's true."

Lin Fan also nodded with a smile.

No matter what Emperor Wu's plan is, the extra things are real, don't want them for nothing.

Even if it doesn't work,
It is also a lot of money to sell it.

"Since there is no problem with the list, owner Lin can arrange to receive it. The things are right outside the door."

Zhui Ming said.

Lin Fan naturally had no objection, and arranged for Su Erhu to bring someone to receive it.

As for the ransom, Lin Fan didn't know how to be polite, so he asked for a lot.

In addition to the extra items, several carriages were used to pull them, adding up the large wooden boxes, it was difficult to count the number for a while.

Conservative estimate.

The value of these items exceeds one million taels, and not more than a little bit.

Because some high-year medicinal materials and special metals are not available at market prices.

Can't even buy it.

Only Emperor Wu, who occupies a vast territory and has absolute dominion, can produce these things.

"Is everything okay?"

Zhui Ming accompanied him the whole time, and when everything was dealt with, he stepped forward and asked.

Lin Fan replied: "There is no problem with the things, please take a trip, don't be in a hurry to go back later, it's rare to come here, my old friend invites you to have a good meal and drink."

"Haha! Thank you Master Lin for your attention, but I have to go back and return to my life, so I can only wait for another day."

Zhui Ming laughed happily, getting closer to Lin Fan was what he wished for, but unfortunately he really didn't have the time right now.

"Okay, then another day."

Lin Fan didn't force anything, just nodded and agreed.

The two sides exchanged a few pleasantries again, and led their subordinates to leave after chasing their lives, followed by the mighty convoy.

"Okay, your ransom has been paid in full, and you are now free."

When Lin Fan returned to the house, he raised his hand to undo the internal power seal of Solanum nigrum.

The rolling inner force emerged again, and Solanum nigrum regained the strength of a peerless master.

In addition, he also gained freedom and was no longer confined to the manor.

This is what she wants.

But the heart is still complicated.

However, being able to lead Zhen Wusi at such a young age, she is naturally very tenacious. After a moment of silence, she took a deep breath and suppressed all the complicated emotions.

After bidding farewell to Jian Ling and the other girls, she turned around and prepared to leave.

"and many more."

But before he took a few steps, he was stopped by Lin Fan.

"Why, do you want to go back on your word?"

Solanum nigrum stopped and turned back.

"Who wants to go back on his word?"

Lin Fan replied angrily, and then threw out a golden long sword.

"This is your sword."

Facing the golden long sword thrown, Solanum nigrum subconsciously reached out to catch it.

This is a demigod weapon, and she thought that Lin Fan would not return it to her. After all, such a weapon cannot be bought even with money, and it is truly priceless.

But now,
When she left, Lin Fan returned it to her without hesitation.

"Thank you."

Solanum nigrum took a deep look at Lin Fan for a while, then thanked him, and then quickly left with his movements.

"Husband, did you really let her go like this?"

Dao Miaomiao stepped forward and frowned.

"if not?"

Lin Fan asked back with a smile.

Dao Miaomiao replied: "She is very powerful, even my grandpa Dao may not be her opponent, if you let her go like this, what if she troubles us again in the future?"

"She doesn't dare."

Lin Fan scratched his wife's delicate nose, and naturally knew what he was worried about.

But if you give the other party a few more courage, the other party will not dare to trouble him again.

Instead, let the other party go back, and Chen Ming explained the strength of it, so that the court would not come to trouble him.

Someone secretly wanted him to fight with the court in order to benefit from it, so naturally he would not let the other party succeed.

I can fight the court.

It's not a fight for your benefit, it's for me to benefit from it.

This is Lin Fan's consistent thinking.

"Okay, let's stop here first, your husband will take care of the rest, let's continue cooking now, ladies, what do you want to eat today?"

Lin Fan smiled and waved his hands, and continued to return to the question of eating and drinking today.

Dao Miaomiao: "I want braised carp, the spicy one, and braised pork ribs! Spicy too!"

Wang Nannan: "I want fish-flavored shredded pork, the kind with a little saltiness."

Su Xiaoxiao: "I want..."

Sword Spirit: "I want..."

Ye Xiaorou: "I want..."

The two foodies first jumped out to order, and then the other daughters-in-law also opened their mouths.

Hearing that the daughters-in-law wanted what I wanted, Lin Fan suddenly laughed.

want to?

Then satisfy you.

The manor returned to calm again, enjoying the joys of life comfortably.

With all kinds of materials supported by the imperial court, Lin Fan not only started alchemy, but also used special metals to equip his daughter-in-law with handy weapons and soft armor.

Ye Xiaorou learned swordsmanship from a sword spirit, plus she is tall and has slender hands and feet, so Lin Fan gave her a demigod sword.

Su Xiaoxiao also learned the same swordsmanship, and Lin Fan also gave him the same configuration.

But looking at the petite Wang Nannan, she learned the sword technique from Dao Miaomiao, and it is a relatively thick long sword. When she practices it, she looks like a small horse-drawn cart.

Lin Fan was speechless.

However, following my wife's favorite, I configured a demigod long sword for it.

five daughters-in-law,

They have a handful of demigod soldiers, and they are also the top demigod soldiers, possessing some of the characteristics of a demigod weapon.

Taking out such a configuration will definitely surprise the entire Jianghu martial arts world.

In addition,

Lin Fan also prepared one for himself.

However, compared to regular swords, he equipped himself with a larger and bolder halberd.

There are no fancy moves, just highlight one to overwhelm others.

With a one-foot-long halberd handle and sharp halberd blade, if Lin Fan danced on the battlefield with his terrifying power, what could resist it?

Anyway, when it was forged, Lin Fan tried it with his five daughters-in-law, even if they went together, he would never try to parry his divine power, all of them were submissive and begged for mercy.

In addition to weapons to force.

There was no fall behind in terms of pills.

Among them, the [-]-year-old ginseng that was sent was all refined into Dahuandan by Lin Fan, and distributed to the members of the escort with meritorious service, so that the strength of the escort team skyrocketed again.

There are also various hidden weapons, which have been updated again, which can threaten peerless masters.

Without any exaggeration.

There is no need for Lin Fan and his wife to fight, the guards below alone are enough for the court to drink a pot.

Even if the two great leaders of the Beijing camp come, they will not be able to show their prestige in front of the current guards.

It's just that before Lin Fan could find an opponent and let the guards show off their strengths, the village chief of Sujia Village came to the door with a few young and strong, anxious expressions.

As soon as Lin Fan took Su Xiaoxiao to meet him, the village head of the Su family revealed a piece of news that changed Su Xiaoxiao greatly.

In the statement of the village head of the Su family.

Some time ago,

A group of bandits came to Sujia Village, and my uncle, as the captain of the village guard, led the young and strong in the village to resist, but in the end he was defeated and captured, along with several young and strong in the village.

The bandit leader threatened that if they didn't spend 1 taels within three days, they would kill people with knives!
"Husband..."

Su Xiaoxiao was confused after hearing this.

Lin Fan's eyes flickered slightly, and then he spoke soothingly: "Daughter-in-law Xiaoxiao, don't worry, my husband will handle this matter well, and I won't let bandits hurt people."

"Uh-huh."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded again and again. Although she has superb strength, her mentality has not changed.

Lin Fan didn't forcibly correct anything, he asked the village head of the Su family for some details, and then arranged for Su Erhu to sound the rallying call to gather all the guards.

Just a bunch of bandits.

It stands to reason that sending a guard back at random can easily solve it.

But Lin Fan didn't do this, because all this was too inconsistent with the logic of bandits.

When entering the village, there was no burning, killing, plundering, or committing a crime. They just wounded the prisoners of the village guards and asked the villagers to redeem them with money.

If it is ordinary money.

This is not unreasonable.

But the ransom demanded by the bandits was a huge amount of money that Sujia Village could not afford.

1 taels.

Sujia Village couldn't get it out.

So what will they do?
It must be looking for a backer for help.

Who is the backer of Sujia Village?
Or,

Who is the backer of the kidnapped uncle?

This is naturally Lin Fan's brother-in-law.

The bandits kidnapped people and demanded a ransom. They really wanted a ransom, but they came here for Lin Fan.

"Who will it be this time?"

Lin Fan smiled expectantly.

Compared to the stupid ones who came to their door in the past, it is clear that this time the troublemaker learned to be smart and knew how to lure Lin Fan out instead of rushing into the unknown base camp.

For these,

It is indeed worth looking forward to.
