I saw the things in the box, the gilt shell was shining brightly, and there was a cube-shaped box underneath. There was a big speaker on the box. It turned out to be a phonograph!

Lin Yuan was puzzled, and murmured in his heart, "Why did he give me a phonograph?"

Lord Long gave the big man a wink, and the big man fiddled with the phonograph for a while, and melodious music came from the speaker, and to the music, Long Wu said with a smile: "This is a rare thing in the West, it can sing ditties, What do you think of my gift?"

Lin Yuan thought: "Is he just here to give gifts?" He couldn't figure it out for a while, so he followed him and said, "This gift is good, I don't know what kind of gift I should give in return?" It has deep meaning, that is to say, I will also give you a gift, and we don't owe anyone else.

Master Long waved his hand, and the big man walked outside knowingly, only Master Long and Lin Yuan were left in the room, Master Long smiled and said: "My lord, you have been transporting goods on the small pier for a long time. , the people on the pier have a family to support, and their wages are all taken care of by me. Now the small money turnover is tight, and there is no money to send to the people on the pier, and they are not willing to pick up the adults Your goods are gone."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yuan immediately understood the meaning of the gift he gave. The reason why Lord Long bowed to Lin Yuan and paid for the looted supplies for Lin Yuan was because Lin Yuan had a gift in his hand. The evidence of Master Long's "rebellion" produced by recording and synthesis technology, and Master Long sent this gift to tell Lin Yuan: "Your evidence is no longer valid, because there is something that can make a sound."

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "If you say that other people have no money, I believe it, but if you say that you, Master Long, have no money, I don't believe anything! There are hundreds of opium dens in Beijing and Tianjin. Are they all sent by your Dragon Lord?"

Master Long said with a smile: "It is against the law to carry opium. I, Long Wu, never do it."

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "It's fine if you still pretend to be like me, I'll find a chance to uproot you." Thinking of this, Lin Yuan smiled and said: "Since Master Long is really in trouble, then I'm not good at it. It’s time to spend Master Long’s money again, so let’s make an estimate and see how much I’m going to give you?”

Master Long stretched out a finger and said, "1 taels of silver." Master Long was certain that Lin Yuan would have to transport things to him, so the lion opened his mouth and paid wages to the workers on the pier, which was useless at all. so much.

Lin Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, that's the amount, I'll just give it to you, but no one can afford such a large sum of money for a while, just wait," Lin Yuan called Liu San He came in, pointed at Master Long, and said to Liu San: "Housekeeper, do you see that this is Master Long, you go immediately to raise money, 1 taels, if you have enough, send it to Master Long's house in person."

Master Long stretched out his thumb, praised "Fresh", and led the big man to leave. Liu San then said, "My lord, do you really want to give that unreasonable thing so much money?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Of course not, I'll just say that."

Liu San asked: "Then what should we do if he comes to us?"

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "You understand these things better than I do, just find an excuse to distract him, and you still need me to teach you?"

Liu Sanyi slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, look at my head."

At this moment, the boy came in again to report: "Master Zhang Jian, please see me."

Lin Yuan thought: "Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes appeared?" So he ordered: "Please!"

At this moment, Liu San called his family and carried away the box and the phonograph. Zhang Jian came in without sticking to the etiquette. We want to transfer the factory, but..."

Lin Yuan asked, "But what?"

Zhang Jian said: "There were several people who came, and I don't know which one it is, but the Manda good man was indeed among them."

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "Wait, don't worry, the mastermind behind the scenes will definitely suppress other competitors, and the last remaining one will be the last mastermind."

Zhang Jian nodded in agreement, didn't stay long, turned around and left, Lin Yuan was alone in the room, silently thinking about these people today, Sun Yuwen, Yu Shan, Long Ye, Tou Shanman.Tou Shanman was the most suspected of Zhang Jian's factory, and Master Long had probably acted as a pawn for Toushan Man, so would Master Long tell Tou Shanman about his robbery of the British merchant ship?Probably not, Master Long is just cooperating with Tou Shanman to seize Zhang Jian's spinning factory, it has nothing to do with him, Master Long will naturally not talk about it.

Lin Yuan stood up, paced back and forth in the room, can you think of a way to include these people, like weaving a sky, in this one, all the problems of everyone can be solved.

For several days, Lin Yuan had been silently thinking about how to weave this sky. This morning, Liu San happily ran in and said, "Congratulations, you have graduated from high school!"

Lin Yuan was not surprised by this result. Mr. Li was a veteran who specialized in stereotyped essays for more than ten years. In addition, his talent was not bad, so he was accepted as a matter of course. Lin Yuan smiled faintly, and Liu San said again: "Three days later, the palace examination, with my lord's ability, I will definitely be able to come back with a champion."

For most of his life, Liu San was used to seeing too many people who were ecstatic in the exams. Today, seeing Lin Yuan as before, he couldn't help giving a thumbs up in his heart!Liu San said again: "It's always been the day after the results of the exam are released. Those who pass the exam will go to the examiner's house to learn from their teachers. What do you want to prepare, sir?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "The chief examiner is Weng Tonghe. If I go to visit him, it will be troublesome if he finds out that I can't write stereotyped essays, so I don't want to go." So he said, "I won't go."

As soon as Liu San wanted to persuade him, Lin Yuan pushed him away. Liu San had already stepped out of the door with one foot, and suddenly turned around and said, "My lord, didn't you ask me to send greetings to Mrs. Sun Yuwen and Sun yesterday?" Is it? That old bastard Sun Yuwen actually pretended to be sick and didn't want to see you."

Lin Yuan asked: "How do you know that he is pretending to be sick and not seeing me?"

Liu San said: "The young one is acquainted with the housekeeper of Mr. Sun's house, that's why he told me."

Lin Yuan originally planned to meet Sun Yuwen, but he didn't expect him to hide from him on purpose. It seems that this Sun Yuwen is well versed in the way of protecting himself, and he was worried that he would offend Weng Tonghe if he got too close to him. Sun Yuwen was in his plan An important part of it, without him, the following plans would not be able to be carried out.

It just so happened that the palace examination was coming, Lin Yuan planned to take the opportunity of the palace examination to meet with Sun Yuwen and carry out his plan.

The day of the palace examination is coming soon, and the candidates for the examination are all waiting in the side hall, they are both nervous and excited, but Lin Yuan looks for Sun Yuwen with ease like a normal person.

As the minister of the Ministry of Punishments, Sun Yuwen had to be present at the imperial examination. If the emperor felt that any of the candidates in the mid-level examination was not good enough and was suspected of cheating, he would send it directly to the Ministry of Punishment, and the minister of the Ministry of Punishment would give him a severe trial and sentence!

Lin Yuan walked up to Sun Yuwen and said with a smile, "Is Master Sun feeling better?"

Sun Yuwen didn't have the courage to leave Lin Yuan on the spot like Weng Tonghe did, he returned the salute and said with a smile: "Master Tuolin's blessing is almost better, if it wasn't for the cumbersome papers these days, Laishan would have already visited. "

"Laishan" is Sun Yuwen's character, the ancients liked to use "character" to refer to themselves, Lin Yuan said: "If you had seen me earlier, your illness would have been cured."

Sun Yuwen was puzzled and asked, "Why?"
