Need for money

Seeing Wang Meng leading a large group of people around, Lin Jingzhi understood what was going on. At this moment, Aunt Yu also spoke,

"Second Lord, yesterday the concubine ordered the hidden guards to treat the Second Young Master Wang well, and then threw him at the east gate of the city early this morning."

Lin Jingzhi nodded in understanding, then clamped the horse's belly with both legs, and went straight to Wang Meng and the others.

"The younger generation has met Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang is indeed a good official who is diligent and caring for the people. He went out of the city to work in person as soon as it was light in the early morning." He clasped his hands, and his words were full of mockery and sarcasm.

"Bold, why don't you get off your horse to greet Mr. Wang!" Early this morning, the gatekeeper sergeant was the first to discover the second son Wang, so Zhang Xiu, the Luocheng guard who was in charge of the Luocheng sergeants, arrived one step earlier than Wang Meng. Seeing his immediate superior's face turning pale with anger, he shouted loudly.

Lin Jingzhi just glanced at Zhang Xiu casually out of the corner of his eye, didn't take him seriously at all, and said with a sneer: "Mr. Lin heard yesterday that Mr. Zheng from General Xuanwei's mansion bought the piece that the Lin family bought. The lower reaches of the wasteland were also bought, and they also planned to dig a canal in the wasteland to benefit the people, so they dared not neglect, and planned to go to the wasteland to supervise the work early, hoping to dig the canal as soon as possible. As a burden."

Although Zhang Xiu, who was despised, was extremely angry, she was shocked when she heard that the Zheng family was also involved in the matter of digging a canal in the wasteland.

Wang Meng's face trembled in anger, his beard trembled, and his fists hidden in his sleeves were tightly clenched together.

Originally, when he saw Aizi being beaten into such a state by the Lin family, he planned to take down all the Lin family without doing anything, but after hearing this sentence, he felt guilty and did not dare to give an order.

In the past, although the Lin family and the Zheng family had some friendship, the relationship in terms of favor and face was always unstable. If he really took the Lin family down and made Tian Ji's name known, the Zheng family might not necessarily stand up for the Lin family, but But now it is different. From what Lin Jingzhi said, the Lin and Zheng families already have a relationship of interest.

He who has been in the officialdom understands the truth that people die for money and birds die for food better than anyone else!

What's more, now that the government is unstable, the treasury has no money, and the Zheng family is worrying about the food and pay of the 10,000+ army. If he really cuts off other people's financial resources, it will be strange if they don't kill them.

Although Wang Meng didn't have much skill, he also knew that the Zheng family, which controlled the army, was obviously a bit tougher than his mentor Tian Ji in view of the current unstable situation of the dynasty.

Therefore, the Zheng family, he must not offend.

At the same time, he also regretted, why when he first heard that the Lin family opened up wasteland, they only cared about the fire, and didn't think that there was a piece of wasteland downstream. If he had bought it first, the Lin family and the Zheng family would not have been involved in interests.

Seeing Wang Meng's complexion covered with clouds, turning blue and purple alternately, but he didn't dare to do anything to himself, Lin Jingzhi felt refreshed, riding a fine horse, passing by Wang Meng, Lin Jingzhi suddenly bent down and said something in a low voice , causing Wang Meng to be shocked,

"This time it's your son who suffers for you, next time it's your turn if you don't know!"

Thinking of how badly Lin Lizhi was beaten, Lin Jingzhi felt furious.

"Drive!" After finishing speaking, Lin Jingzhi flicked his horsewhip and headed straight for the wasteland, followed by Aunt Yu and the guards of the Lin family.

It wasn't until Lin Jingzhi ran seven or eight zhang away that Wang Meng suddenly turned around. Due to his violent movements, he staggered. If someone hadn't stepped forward to help him, he would have fallen to the ground.

Too rampant, too rampant!Ruzi dare you!Wang Meng trembled in anger, raised his right finger and pointed at Lin Jingzhi's back, wanted to yell and curse, but couldn't make a sound, his eyes darkened, and he fell down straight, the people around were shocked when they saw this , rushed forward quickly, busy with busy hands and feet.

At this time, Yin Lei ran over from the gate of the city, and kept muttering to Zhang Shaojie beside him, "Where did you go just now, why did you disappear in the blink of an eye?"

Zhang Shaojie responded with a guilty conscience, and his eyes would drift to the direction where Lin Jingzhi was going from time to time.

Letting the horse dismount and gallop wildly, Lin Jingzhi's heart rose out of thin air. Since he crossed here, he must always be on guard against Tian Ji Wang Meng. It was really a relief to be humiliated.

A group of more than [-] people rode steeds like a dark cloud, moving fast towards the wasteland.

After about an hour or so, everyone came to the wasteland. Lin Jingzhi looked at the hundreds of new houses erected in front of him, and he was very surprised. He really didn't expect that in just one and a half days, the refugees could actually build So many homes.

Aunt Yu's eyes brightened when she saw this. If the refugees could maintain this speed, it would take less than ten days for all the refugees to move into their new homes.

He was beating his chest and back again, and after tossing for a long while, Wang Meng finally woke up and slowly opened his eyes. With the support of the crowd, he stood up tremblingly again, and became the city of Luocheng. After guarding, this was the first time he was humiliated like this.

As a member of the fifth rank, he was threatened face to face by a white body, which is really embarrassing.

"My lord, are you alright?" Yin Lei came a step late, and did not see Lin Jingzhi's domineering appearance.

Wang Meng shook his head and asked weakly, "Why did you come here?"

Although Wang Meng's voice was not loud, Yin Lei could still hear the dissatisfaction in it. Afraid of being misunderstood by his superiors, he quickly explained: "My lord, after hearing the news from my subordinates, I went to look for Shaojie. I wasted a little time."

Zhang Shaojie hasn't taken office yet, and he doesn't have much money on him. He has been living in an inn in Los Angeles for the past few days.

Speaking of Zhang Shaojie, Wang Meng started to think again. Last time he was humiliated by Aunt Yu's teasing when he was raising money in Qianlixiang. At that time, he learned from Yin Lei that Aunt Yu's martial arts Extraordinary.

This time he just touched Lin Lizhi, and his son was kidnapped by the Lin family. He guessed that Aunt Yu must have done it, and there is really no guard around him who can surpass Yin Lei in martial arts, his eyes rolled slightly , he said: "Shaojie, you have no place to live now, why don't you live in the official's mansion for the time being."

Zhang Shaojie was obviously absent-minded at this time, his expression was in a trance, and he didn't know if he heard clearly, so he agreed casually.

No mistake, it's her, why is she here, and what is the relationship between that Lin Jingzhi and her?

Hearing that Zhang Shaojie agreed, Wang Meng was relieved. In the future, it will be much safer to have Zhang Shaojie by his side to protect him.

Seeing that Wang Meng gradually returned to normal, the people around quickly picked up the injured Wang Ergong and ran to Luocheng, so as to find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. This injury looks too scary, and it might stay What is the root of the disease.

After the Lin family's hidden guards heard the order from above, they didn't hold back at all. Lin Lizhi only suffered a skin trauma and looked scary, but if this Second Young Master Wang didn't rest on the bed for a hundred or eighty days, wouldn't he Possibly on foot.
