I am the richest man in the Dai Viet Dynasty

Chapter 15 Grill the fish first

Lin Chengfeng was a little flustered. After all, the content of the conversation just now made him feel guilty.

He shouted hurriedly: "Who broke into my guest room!"

Then I took a closer look and saw that it was Cheng Fengsheng, the shopkeeper of the jewelry shop on South Street, and his eldest sister Lin Chengzhou who were entering the door.

Lin Chengfeng has never been too polite to his eldest sister. Those who are close to him know that his eldest sister and his mistress are a pain in his mother's heart, and together they become Lin Chengfeng's. A piece of my heart is sick.

"Ha! You came here looking for death today!" Lin Chengfeng was extremely rude. Once he entered his territory, he was not allowed to do anything he wanted.

Lin Chengfeng had just finished speaking, and before Lin Chengzhou could refute, someone walked out from behind.

"I originally thought that the young masters of the Lin family should be as kind to others as the young master Ying. I didn't expect that when I went to Master Feng's restaurant to have some drinks today, I would hear such disrespectful words from Master Feng to my eldest sister."

Lin Chengfeng felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere. Looking along the source of the sound, he saw that the person coming in was the wife of the chief clerk in charge of merchants' goods in the Yamen!

As for why today was such a coincidence, of course it was planned long ago by Lin Chengzhou.

A few days ago, Cheng Fengsheng was specially asked to go to Xianzhou City next door to buy a batch of colored glaze bracelets.

It was calculated that during lunch time, the wife of the Registrar would definitely go to deliver some lunch to her husband.

So I went to the Yamen Mansion in person to report the material of the batch of glazed bracelets.

No, before I entered the yamen, I saw the chief clerk talking and laughing with his wife.

He went up to welcome him happily, raised his hands to the master clerk, pretended to be angry, and said: "Ah, master clerk, how could such a beautiful young lady bring you lunch today, and you are stealing this little lady's food here?" Food, don’t blame me for going to complain to my sister-in-law!"

The bookkeeper and Lin Chengzhou had been dealing with each other a lot since the goods were registered in the jewelry shop. This girl was extremely smart. Knowing that she was joking on purpose, she wasn't upset at all. She replied: "You Lin family girl, don't talk nonsense." ! This is not my wife!"

Lin Chengzhou joked, "Didn't you say that you are already over forty? Why does your wife look so young? Don't lie to me, girl. Is this not your aunt?"

"You girl, stop talking nonsense!"

Lin Chengzhou also felt that it was just right for the joke to end here, so he handed over his hand and replied: "Master Registrar is really lucky. Madam is also very young and beautiful. If I guess her age correctly, I am afraid she is older than you." Sir, please take a small round."

The wife of the bookkeeper burst out laughing. She was extremely happy, and she was not angry with Lin Chengzhou for saying "the aunt I later married." She replied to Lin Chengzhou: "My husband and I were childhood sweethearts, and we are married. hair."

At the end, I couldn't help but add, "Same age."

Lin Chengzhou showed great shock, pretending to be surprised and asked, "The same age? Madam and the registrar are the same age?" He then bowed to the registrar and said, "It should be the registrar who loves his wife. Loving people is like nurturing flowers, that’s why Madam Ling is so beautiful and young.”

The Madam Registrar was very happy when she heard this.

Seeing the effect, Lin Chengzhou was also satisfied. Even if he took the opportunity to invite the lady to her jewelry store to pick out some knickknacks, no matter how beautiful the flowers were, they had to be dressed up.

The Chief Registrar obviously understood the meaning of Lin Chengzhou's words and was very pleased with Lin Chengzhou's approach.

The fact that I was able to have wine with the madam today was naturally part of Lin Chengzhou's plan.

Otherwise it would have been such an unlucky coincidence that the private room where the lady was invited to have a drink was right next door to Lin Chengfeng.

I also happened to hear some faint noises.

At this moment, Lin Chengfeng's heart was pounding, and a little panic surfaced.

Pretending to be calm, he bowed to the madam, the bookkeeper, and said politely, "It's all my fault that my eldest sister didn't tell Feng'er. Feng'er didn't know that Madam came to my small restaurant to have a drink today. If she had known, she should have known." Feng'er is the host."

Lin Chengzhou didn't realize that the second younger brother was also good at acting. He felt funny and angry in his heart. He glanced at Cao Wande who was sitting beside him and felt that such hypocritical back and forth was really slowing down the progress.Then he introduced the real topic of today and said: "It turns out that the second brother and shopkeeper Cao also know each other. Shopkeeper Cao was a regular customer of my jewelry shop before, but today he came to my shop and started a fight with me, and almost got into trouble. If my second brother can recognize his hand, and if he can reconcile it, I won't lose touch with the shopkeeper."

Before Lin Chengfeng could answer, shopkeeper Cao jumped up from his chair, looking furious, pointing at Lin Chengzhou and saying, "You girl! Those bracelets you sold! You have to pay even if you don't pay today!"

After hearing the anger in Shopkeeper Cao's words, the Madam Madam became curious. This Zhou girl has always been kind and kind to others. Even the maid next to her said that the owner of Lin's Jewelry Shop was humble. How could she be so kind? He and his business partner lost their friendship, so he thought that this girl treated him well, and if he could reconcile her, it would be a good thing. With the title of Mrs. Registrar, Shopkeeper Cao would not fail to show this face.

The lady then looked at Lin Chengzhou next to her and asked: "You are a business girl, how can you still lose harmony with others? What's the matter? Why don't you tell me, if this shopkeeper Cao recognizes me, he will treat me as a prostitute. To save face, let’s sit down and have a chat together.”

Lin Chengzhou smiled, stared at the package in Shopkeeper Cao's arms, and said: "Shopkeeper Cao, take it out, and let the Madam of the Bookkeeper review it with us."

Then Cao Wande unwrapped the package in his arms, spread out the pile of bracelets and placed them on the table.

Although the lady had seen some scenes before, she was a little shocked to see so many jewelry placed in front of her.

The jewelry and money involved may be quite a lot, and I know that things may not be that simple today.

Lin Chengzhou immediately explained to the lady in a few words: "Shopkeeper Cao approved these bracelets in my jewelry shop. He came here today and said that the bracelets in my jewelry shop have faded and the ones sold to him are all fake." goods."

Immediately, Shopkeeper Cao hurriedly picked up a bracelet and handed it to the clerk's wife respectfully, saying: "Madam, please see, this bracelet has his Lin family's steel seal, but this bracelet has faded so badly, it's not a fake." Goods."

The lady took it, looked at it carefully, nodded, indicating that the bracelet was indeed made by Lin.

"How can we judge based on this steel seal that it is me, Lin Chengzhou, who made the forgery? I am not the only one named Lin here, and I am not the only one who can use this Lin family's steel seal." After Lin Chengzhou finished speaking, he deliberately looked in the direction where Lin Chengfeng was sitting. .

Lin Chengzhou didn't mention him by name, but he saw Lin Chengfeng jump up as if he was lit by a firecracker, and said to Lin Chengzhou: "You! You! Don't talk nonsense!"

Lin Chengzhou ignored her and walked up to the head clerk's wife and said, "I see she is also wearing this bracelet from my Lin family today. Can I borrow her bracelet for use?"

The lady in charge took off the bracelet and handed it to Lin Chengzhou.

Then he saw Lin Chengzhou lifting the wine bottle on the table and pouring the wine on it with the bracelet handed over by the clerk's wife.

Within seconds, a circle of golden dark patterns appeared on the bracelet.

The wife of the bookkeeper said: "When you gave me this bracelet, you told me that it had magical powers when it was touched by wine. Now it seems that it is the gold pattern on this bracelet."

"Exactly." Lin Chengzhou answered.

Then he picked up the wine pot, took off the lid, and poured it towards the pile of bracelets in front of Shopkeeper Cao.

Everyone seemed to be expecting something.

He looked at the bracelets with his own thoughts, but the bracelets were still the same as before.

The reason why the wife of the chief clerk can become the wife of the chief clerk, and why the master chief clerk can become the master chief clerk that everyone respects in Bianjing City, is because he has to understand others.

Then he understood the purpose of this Zhou girl's banquet today. Now that the matter has come to this, let's accompany her to finish the play.

The lady angrily yelled at Shopkeeper Cao: "How dare you make fakes and cheat!"

Shopkeeper Cao was shocked for a moment, and he was glad that he had sized up the situation. Fortunately, he had submitted to such a thoughtful owner, otherwise he would have been in trouble.

Although I am a small link in this play, I still have to perform the whole play, right? I just kneel down with a "plop".

He kowtowed and said, "I know nothing! I know nothing! It's Mr. Feng!"
