wealthy lord

Chapter 125 Pie in the sky?
  Lin Yun got off the sedan, looked around, and found that the guards seemed to have abnormal expressions today.

However, even if it was a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, he couldn't afford it today and had no choice but to bite the bullet and get in.

The small courtyard is very elegant, with various flowers and plants planted on both sides, and a small pavilion not far away.

Lin Yun took a closer look and saw Qiu Guangri sitting alone in the pavilion fishing.

Under the pavilion is an artificial lake with a group of koi carps swimming in it.

Lin Yun adjusted his mentality, walked up to the pavilion, and said respectfully: "Lin Yun has met Mr. Fu Yin!"

Qiu Guangri turned his back to Lin Yun and didn't even move. He waved expressionlessly and said, "I am not busy with official duties today, so there is no need to be polite. Come and sit down!"

Lin Yun happily sat aside and looked at the fish under the lake.

"I wonder what Mr. Qiu is looking for here?"

"What? I can't come to you when I have nothing to do? Lin Yun, do you still remember that you and I first met at the hunting ground, and then you wanted to be friends with me!"

Lin Yun nodded and said with emotion: "Yes! Time flies so fast, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye!"

"Yes, in just half a year, you have made such a big noise in Niubei Village! This officer is really shocked!"

There is obviously something in Qiu Guangri's words.

Lin Yun laughed twice and said: "Master Qiu, why do you suddenly seem to be a different person! If something happens, just ask, as long as Lin Yun can do it, he will never stand idly by!"

"Hmph, you are now also the head of our Yucheng Internal Affairs Office. Although this official position is not big, it was decided after the imperial envoy discussed with me! However, having said that, if I have anything to ask of you, are you really willing? help?"

When Lin Yun heard this, he screamed secretly. He stood up quickly, bowed and said: "Lin Yun has gained the trust and cultivation of the Lord, so he has achieved such a little achievement today! How dare he forget the kindness of the Lord! As long as Lin Yun can do it Yes, it will definitely live up to expectations!”

Qiu Guangri then put down the fishing rod in his hand and slowly turned around to face Lin Yun.

"You look up!"

Qiu Guangri ordered.

Lin Yun slowly raised his head, only to see that half of Qiu Guangri's face was swollen, and his left eye was slightly bloodshot, obviously caused by a heavy blow.

Rethinking what Ma Ji just said, it seems that Cui Mingchong really did it.

It's just that Cui Mingchong's attack was too dark.

Lin Yun pretended to be surprised and said: "Sir, your face..."

"Humph, you just went to see Ma Ji, and he didn't tell you?"

I don't know if Qiu Guangri is deliberately testing, or if he really doesn't care and just said this.

But no matter what, Lin Yun would not betray Ma Ji, and said with a wry smile: "Manager Ma really didn't tell me about this! Sir, what is going on? Is there anyone in Yucheng who dares to attack you?"

Qiu Guangri sighed quietly, stood up directly, came to the stone table in the pavilion, poured two cups of hot tea, waved and said: "Don't be so rigid, relax! I said we won't talk about business today! Besides, I This injury is just a minor matter! You don’t have to worry, let alone ask about it!”

Lin Yun pretended to be thoughtful, nodded and said: "Yes! Is it really just a reminiscence and chat between friends that you are looking for me today?"

Qiu Guangri smiled jokingly and said, "What do you think?"

Lin Yun laughed twice and said: "That's right! I'm just the little lord of Niubei Village. In our village, my words still have some weight, but it won't work in other places!"

No matter what Qiu Guangri was going to say next, Lin Yun's words were equivalent to blocking them all and never giving him a chance to speak.

But Qiu Guangri was so scheming. He looked at him deeply while holding the tea cup, took a sip of tea and said, "I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"

Lin Yun's heart skipped a beat and he immediately became alert. He smiled and said, "Sir, are these two pieces of news the same thing?" Qiu Guangri shook his head slowly and said, "It depends on how you choose! Different choices will make different things. the result of!"

Lin Yun frowned and thought over and over again, but still didn't know how to make a decision. He asked tentatively: "How about a reminder?"

"Well... that's fine! Let me remind you, good news, we are all happy! Bad news..."

Qiu Guangri suddenly stopped moving midway through his words.

Lin Yun suddenly looked into his eyes.

But Qiu Guangri's eyes looked like a ferocious jackal.

Lin Yun suddenly realized that choosing bad news in this situation was undoubtedly courting death. Moreover, he was alone now and didn't even have a bamboo gun with him. If this angered him, he would definitely not get any good results.

Lin Yun quickly smiled and said: "Then you still need to ask? Of course I choose good news!"

"you sure?"

Qiu Guangri grinned. This was the first time Lin Yun saw him smile today, but it gave Lin Yun a particularly sinister illusion.

"This... Sir, could you be digging a hole for me on purpose?"

Lin Yun was a little unsure. He suddenly discovered that this autumn day seemed to have changed a bit, and it was no longer as easy to guess as before.

"Are you digging a hole for me? If I want to punish you, those shady things in your hands are enough to make you lose your head ten times!"

Lin Yun cursed in his heart, what kind of medicine is this old guy selling in his gourd?

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, just tell me! What is going on?"

"Since you chose good news, I solemnly inform you that from now on, you will be the Yuanwailang of the Accounting Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Yucheng!"

Lin Yun took a breath. He didn't expect such good news to come!

"Master Qiu, are you kidding me? Are you going to give me a promotion?"

Lin Yun has always believed that pie will never fall in this world, and even if it falls, it may not be a pie, but it may also be something fatal.

Therefore, Lin Yun looked happy on the surface, but in fact he was on full alert, and even the muscles in his body were tense.

Qiu Guangri put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Would I make such a joke? You can thank me now!"

"Wait a minute! Mr. Qiu, as the saying goes, no reward comes without merit! Lin Yun has done nothing, why do you want to promote me?"

"Don't be nervous, I just said it, just because you are my friend! I asked you to be the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs before, but I just pulled you into the officialdom first, and then you can be promoted!"

Qiu Guangri had obviously thought of his words and acted calmly.

But Lin Yun is not stupid, this reason is really ridiculous.

If you become his friend in Qiu Guangri and you can get promoted and make a fortune, then Yucheng Mansion will probably be overcrowded.

"But…"

Lin Yun still wanted to ask more, Qiu Guangri slapped the table and said displeased: "What? You still want to refuse?"

Lin Yun was suddenly speechless.

"Let me tell you! You were promoted because of your outstanding abilities and my original intention of benevolence, justice and love for talents, so I promoted you in an exceptional way! Moreover, you have made great contributions this time and solved the urgent needs of the court, so you should be rewarded!"
