"Hahaha, 150,000 is 150,000. Deal!"
"Huh? Brother Lin, I meant one hundred thousand taels." Sheng Huainan emphasized again. Good man, could he have heard it wrong?
"Fifteen thousand is fifteen thousand. Brother Huainan, you're so kind. I'm determined to be your brother."
The corner of Sheng Huainan's mouth twitched. Brothers are brothers, why do we have to fight?
There's really no need for that.
He subconsciously squeezed his buttocks and looked back at Da Zhuang who was standing by the side. Could it be that Da Zhuang had really served Brother Lin?
"Ahem. With Brother Lin's talent, these three authentic paintings will surely fetch a good price in the future. I'll just keep them as a collection. I'll make a profit."
"Hahaha. You really do have a business mind... By the way, I still have pearls and cloth given by the emperor at home. Can you help me exchange them for silver notes?"
"OK--"
Sheng Huainan was also depressed. Everyone liked the things given by the emperor and even required them to be offered as sacrifices at home.
Why does Brother Lin have to sell all the things given by the emperor again and again?
"I have one more thing to ask of you, Brother Nan."
"You and I are half-brothers. The word 'please' is serious. Brother Lin, just say it."
"Yes, please ask Zhou Wei, the former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, to come see me. That is, Mr. Zhou Xianchun."
…
Outside Zuiyue Tower.
In a carriage, several men in black were filled with murderous intent, holding the same angry knives in their hands.
Their faces were covered, but the terrifying light in their eyes could not be hidden at all.
"Have you checked clearly? Is the person still inside?" One of the middle-aged men whispered.
"Yes. Our people are keeping an eye on him. He is only at the Body Tempering Realm, so he can't run away."
"He can't run away, but we're not the only ones targeting him. I just saw several familiar figures on the street corner. One of them should be from the Horse Taming Temple."
The masked man who spoke was a thin man. He held the dagger in his hand and said:
"How about we go in now? It's over a million taels. We can just rob it and leave."
"No. It's not dark yet, why are you in such a hurry? You really want to charge into Zuiyue Tower, are you really that desperate? The Taming Horse Temple only has a group of second-rank warriors, and only one third-rank. Don't worry. But if you charge in now, you will definitely attract patrols..."
"Okay, I'll listen to Big Brother. Let this kid live until dark. As soon as he leaves Zuiyue Tower, we'll take action. Kill him, steal the money, and run away immediately."
"We can't kill him. This guy is a special envoy appointed by the Emperor. If he dies, we will definitely be hunted down. We only want money. If he doesn't obey, just knock him out. His guards don't matter. If they dare to stop us, just kill them directly."
"Hahaha, one million taels! As long as we're not caught by the Mingjing Division, who can trace it back to us? Everyone will think it was done by those students. Hehe, luckily he doesn't live in the Zhenguo Mansion, otherwise we really wouldn't have a chance."
"Don't be too happy. You all know the rules. If anyone gets caught, I will never turn back to save them!"
"Okay, we understand! It's not the first time we've done this."
"Just waiting for this kid to come out and die!"
