Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 14 Lin Siming's Suppression

Zhang Yuanming left in shame and indignation, the more ashamed and indignant Zhang Yuanming became, the more unhappy Cao Xiaozhong felt.

In the past two years, Zhang Yuanming relied on his father being the county magistrate and the top leader of Xunyang County, so he kept suppressing him and opposed him everywhere.Two years, two full years, Zhang Yuanming stuck in his throat like a disgusting thorn, which made him extremely unhappy.

Today he was finally able to see the moment when Zhang Yuanming walked away in shame and indignation, he was very happy.

Feeling refreshed, Cao Xiaozhong immediately felt that Li Fei was more pleasing to the eye, and he didn't care about Li Fei beating him yesterday, let alone Li Fei winning his money today.

"Li Fei, with you, I have avenged me today, and the previous grievances have been wiped out. You and I will be brothers from now on. If you have anything to do with me, I will definitely cover you." Cao Xiaozhong patted Li Fei The shoulders, the tone is great.

"Where, where! Then thank you Brother Cao." Cao Xiaozhong was willing to call Li Fei a brother and brother, and Li Fei was happy to have another friend.

On the second floor of Chen's Chess Building, Ji Lao stood with a 23-year-old beautiful young woman.

"Old Ji, can you see something about this piece of chess?" asked the beautiful young woman.

Mr. Ji stroked his long beard on his chin, shook his head and said, "It can't be a coincidence that this son has repeatedly won Zhang Yuanming, the county magistrate's son, by only one chess piece. It's unheard of, it's very brilliant, I can't estimate how powerful this chess piece is before I have actually played against it."

"No matter how powerful you are, you can't compare with Ji Lao." The beautiful young woman smiled, she was very confident in Ji Lao, Ji Lao could even defeat the old masters in Chang'an City, Li Fei is only a 16-year-old boy, no matter how talented she is I think it can be compared to Ji Lao.

Ji Lao smiled, but did not refute.

"The two-on-one game he created is much more interesting than leaf cards. Maybe it will spread all over the world soon. The name Li Fei will also be known to the world." The beautiful young woman spoke again. Said.

Li Fei and Zeng A Niu returned with a full load of more than 100 taels of silver.

From the chess building, Li Fei laughed from ear to ear.

In the Tang Dynasty, the value of one tael of silver was definitely far more than the modern 1000 yuan. After all, the grain output in ancient times was not high, and a day's labor was only 140 to 210 yuan.Even if it is only calculated on the basis that one penny is equal to one dollar, two thousand one hundred and forty four taels of silver is at least 4000 thousand yuan.

With so much capital, Li Fei felt that with his 1000-year-leading knowledge and some small inventions, even if he opened a restaurant, he could bring a large number of modern famous dishes to the Tang Dynasty. Gold is no problem!

Li Fei imagined that the money on his body had increased from more than 2000 taels to more than 2 taels, more than 20 taels, and his hands cramped when counting the money. He didn't believe that Lin Siming and the Lin family could suppress him.

Li Fei is very good at fantasizing, but fantasizing is always fantasizing, the reality is far from as good as he imagined.

A 30-year-old man returned to Lin's house one step ahead of Li Fei.

"What, that kid got almost 2000 taels of silver in the chess building again. Counting yesterday, doesn't this kid already have more than 2000 taels of silver with him?" Lin Siming was so shocked that he couldn't speak when he heard the servant's explanation. , I thought I had heard wrong.

"Master, that kid Li Fei is not simple." Mrs. Lin was also surprised.

"Not only is it not simple, but it's amazing. I never thought that this kid would make so much money in just two days. It's really—" Lin Siming couldn't help but feel a little regretful, whether it was a mistake to recruit a son-in-law like Li Fei.

Recruiting a son-in-law is just to let the daughter pass on the incense, and the most fearful thing is the kind of man who is difficult to control.

It is not without precedent that the door-to-door son-in-law turned against the guest and turned himself into the master.

I originally thought that Li Fei was just a wild boy who came from an overseas island, with no background, nothing, and easy to control.But a person who can get more than 2000 taels of silver in just two days is not an easy person no matter how you look at it.

"My lord, I think he's just cheating and abducting. It's just luck. This kind of thing can be done once. Besides, if you can make money in our Lin family, you may not be able to turn the customer into the main. Is it true that you, the county magistrate, are blind? " Mrs. Lin said.

"Yes, let this kid know that honesty is what he should do!" Lin Siming nodded, agreeing with Mrs. Lin's point of view that rights are always more important than money. As the magistrate of Xunyang County, he The second-in-command under the order, I don't believe it, can't hold down Li Fei, a brat.

"Uncle, Master and Madam are waiting for you in the lobby, and I want you to meet them as soon as you come back." Li Fei had just brought A Niu back to Lin's house and stepped into the gate, when a servant was waiting here, saying that his father-in-law and mother-in-law had already passed away. Waiting for him in the lobby.

Lin Siming had an old face, and when he saw Li Fei walking in, he stood up abruptly.

"Li Fei, do you know your mistake!" Lin Siming asked angrily.

Li Fei was taken aback, and couldn't figure out what this father-in-law was up to.

"Father-in-law was wronged, my son-in-law didn't do anything, what's wrong?" Li Fei asked suspiciously.

"Did nothing? Huh!" Lin Siming sneered: "As a member of our Lin family, you only went to play chess in that vulgar place for two days in a row. Gamblers lose nine out of ten bets. People often lose their families because of this, and it's you What should you touch? Staying with Yueyue at home and having children as soon as possible is what you should do! How dare you say that you are not wrong?"

Li Fei's face twitched twice, is the chess building a vulgar place?In the Tang Dynasty, how many celebrities and Confucian scholars played chess in the chess building.Not to mention those celebrities and scholars, Zhang Yuanming, the county magistrate, Cao Xiaozhong, the lieutenant of Cao County, and other country gentry, don't they often go in and out of the chess building? How come he, Li Fei, becomes vulgar.But there is nothing wrong with Lin Siming's words. Famous people rarely enter the chess building to play chess. After all, he participated in the game of chess. The implication is that he is not allowed to go to the chess building to participate in the game.

"I heard that you won more than 2000 taels of silver. As a member of our Lin family, you have made a little contribution to our Lin family. The more than 2000 taels of silver will be charged to the treasury, and you will not be held accountable for your gambling. , from now on, be honest and responsible, the Lin family will not lack you for a bite."

As soon as Lin Siming changed his voice, he confiscated the 2000 taels of silver that Li Fei had won so hard.

Li Fei opened his mouth wide, and watched helplessly as several servants stepped forward and took all the money from him and Zeng Aniu.

Damn, this is what he 'earned' through hard work. Lin Siming made it clear to suppress him. Not only did he not allow him to play chess anymore, but he also clearly told him through such actions that no matter how much he earned outside When the money came back, in a word, all the money became the Lin family's and not his Li Fei's.

Li Fei really wanted to refute that the money was all his hard-earned money, and he still wanted to use the money as capital to make a real fortune and turn himself into a master, but it was confiscated.

"My son-in-law, no matter what, I can't change the fact that you are the son-in-law of our Lin family. You can also be regarded as a member of the Lin family. The Lin family has passed down the family for decades, and there is no shortage of money. You will be short of money in the future. Just ask Yueyue for it. Pay attention to this aspect." Mrs. Lin smiled and comforted, she and Lin Siming sang the red face and the bad face, today they just beat and beat Li Fei, they still don't want to really get into trouble with Li Fei, after all, they will be in the future Live as a family.

Li Fei was a little annoyed, but there was nothing he could do. It was impossible for him to turn against Lin Siming and Mrs. Lin and make a scene, and he should have expected such a result a long time ago. Neither Lin Siming nor Mrs. Lin wanted him to This door-to-door son-in-law turned against the guest and turned himself into the master.
