After a few days of preparation, Lin Fei had a clear understanding of all the main poisons in the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, he also knew the antidotes to these poisons very well.

So now, as long as Lin Fei smelled the smell of poison, he could come up with the formula of the antidote in his mind.

In order to ensure the absolute safety of Baicao Garden, Lin Fei added a poisonous vine on the wall.

These poisons were all made by him.

In other words, no one in the world could detoxify this vine except him.

If the visitor walked through the gate openly, there would be no problem.

If he sneaked up the wall to see something he shouldn't see, he could only consider himself unlucky.

However, there are many hidden talents in Baicao Garden, and any woman has a shocking cultivation.

Even if someone really broke into Baicao Garden, he would be solved by Wanwan and the others in minutes.

Just like Tian Boguang last time.

"Master," Wang Yuyan asked, "We have so many masters in Baicao Garden, and there are already several masters. We are not afraid of those petty thieves. Why do we need to put poison on the wall?"

Lin Fei smiled and said, "As long as it is an effective method, no matter how much is used, it is not too much. With poisonous vines on the wall, you can sleep more peacefully, right?"

Wang Yuyan thought to herself that I usually sleep well.

Is Master not sleeping well?

Or...

Is he afraid of being seen or heard when he does something?

Alas, Master is still too steady.

In the morning, when Lin Fei came to Yunlai Inn to drink tea, two familiar figures appeared in his sight.

Prince Xin, and Huang Shang.

Old friends.

"Meet Shopkeeper Lin." Prince Xin clasped his fists, sat down, and ordered a pot of the best Huashan Silver Tip Tea.

Lin Fei waved a paper fan and smiled lightly: "Why does Prince Xin have the elegance to come here to taste tea today?"

"As the saying goes, April is spring in the world. The Huashan Silver Tip Tea here by Shopkeeper Lin is a perfect match for the warm spring in April."

Lin Fei said: "I think Prince Xin came here not just to taste the good tea, right?"

Prince Xin's mouth twitched, and he forced a smile with difficulty and said: "Shopkeeper Lin is wise, this prince came here this time, he really has something to ask for."

Lin Fei spread his hands: "Prince Xin, just say it."

Prince Xin rubbed his hands, hesitated for a moment and said: "This prince... wants to borrow some money from Yunlai Bank."

"How much?"

"About... 20 million taels of silver."

"Oh?" Lin Fei leaned back tactically, holding his hands in front of his chest, "Prince Xin knows that Yunlai Bank has rules for lending."

Prince Xin said: "I understand, I have inquired clearly these days. If you want to borrow money from the bank, you must have property as collateral. Or you need a person of weight to guarantee it. "

"Then," Lin Fei said, "what kind of collateral can you give, or who can you find to do this guarantee?"

Prince Xin looked up at Huang Shang, and seemed to have mustered up the courage to say: "This king will not hide it from Shopkeeper Lin. This king asked Yunlai Bank to borrow 20 million taels of silver. In fact, I want to recruit troops, counterattack the capital, and quell the rebellion of Tiedan Shenhou."

"If you can pacify the Ming Dynasty, this king will make Shopkeeper Lin the King of One Word Ping Jian, and rule the world with me!"

When Huang Shang heard this, he immediately said anxiously: "Your Highness, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there has been no King of One Word Ping Jian, and there is no precedent for ruling the world with outsiders!"

Prince Xin said seriously: "There was no King of One Word Ping Jian before, but it doesn't mean there will be no King of One Word Ping Jian in the future! What's more, who is Shopkeeper Lin? It is my blessing to rule the world with someone like Shopkeeper Lin!"

Huang Shang "cooperated very well" and became more anxious.

"Your Highness, this precedent cannot be set arbitrarily. If outsiders are in power, the value of the imperial power cannot be demonstrated. Over time, the country will no longer be a country!"

Prince Xin "pretended to be angry" and said: "Mr. Huang thinks that if the Ming Dynasty is taken away by the Iron-hearted God Marquis Zhu Wusi, there will be peace and prosperity, and the imperial power will be valuable?"

Huang Shang "beat his chest and stamped his feet" and said: "Then you can't make such a heavy bet!"

Prince Xin "sighed" and said: "If we can defeat the Iron-hearted God Marquis and stabilize the country, this price is nothing at all. Not to mention, Manager Lin has a noble character and is deeply loved by this king. Even if he and Manager Lin are in charge of the world together, this king will not care."

Huang Shang wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lin Fei.

"Have you two finished talking?"

Prince Xin looked at Lin Fei, clasped his fists, and said very respectfully: "I have finished talking. I would like to ask Manager Lin to lend a hand to me. After the matter is done, in addition to the promised Yi Zi Qi Jian Wang, there will be a generous reward."

Lin Fei smiled lightly and said: "I understand the reasoning of your words, but I still don't see what you can come up with as a reward for the two of you.Ten million taels of silver as collateral. "

Huang Shang said: "Didn't His Highness just say that? After pacifying the world, I will confer you the title..."

"The King of One Word, right?" Lin Fei smiled as usual, "Why do you think such an illusory thing can be used as collateral? To put it bluntly, if you fail and Zhu Wusi ascends the throne, not to mention the King of One Word, wouldn't my twenty million taels of silver also be wasted?"

"What's the difference between you doing this... and trying to get something for nothing?"

Prince Xin's mouth twitched slightly, and he continued to make the last attempt: "Shopkeeper Lin, I still remember the nine-character mantra you said to me last time, 'Store up grain, build high walls, and slowly claim the throne'.

But storing grain and building high walls both require silver. The government and the treasury are now controlled by Zhu Wusi, and this king really can't get the money.

If Shopkeeper Lin can help this time, this king will never forget Shopkeeper Lin's great kindness! "

Lin Fei said: "Your Highness Prince Xin may have misunderstood what I said.

What I said about storing up food and building high walls means to calm down and slowly develop one's own strength, rather than borrowing 20 million taels of silver to recruit soldiers and horses and let go. "

Prince Xin said anxiously: "But Zhu Wushi has already shown his ambition, and I don't have that much time. "

Lin Fei smiled and said: "But what does this have to do with me?"

Huang Shang said almost furiously: "Why doesn't it matter? Mr. Lin can't help but watch Zhu Wushi plot to usurp the throne?"

Lin Fei said: "Whether it is Prince Xin or the Divine Marquis, they are all surnamed Zhu, you are all family, so no matter who becomes the emperor, it's the same to me."

Prince Xin, who has always maintained a good attitude, is a little bit stunned at this time.

"Zhu Wushi is ambitious, and he is also cruel and ruthless to his adopted daughter and adopted son, and he will do anything to achieve his goals. If such a person seizes the world, the people will definitely be miserable. Can Shopkeeper Lin watch the people suffer? "

Lin Fei said: "These can only show that Zhu Wushi is vigorous and unconventional in his work. If he really becomes the emperor, he may be able to clear up the accumulated malpractices of the Ming Dynasty and make the Ming Dynasty officialdom clean and clear."

Prince Xin's eyes became cold.

"So, Manager Lin is determined to support Zhu Wushi?"

Lin Fei still smiled faintly and said: "Your Highness Prince Xin has misunderstood again. I am just an ordinary businessman who likes to grow flowers and brew wine. If I have extra money, I will use it to make money and earn interest. I have no intention of getting involved in the struggle within the Ming Dynasty royal family.

If Prince Xin has enough property to mortgage, then Yunlai Bank welcomes you to borrow money.

But if Prince Xin thinks that he can get something for nothing with his mouth...

Then I can only say that you are still too young! "
