Chapter 225: The Army is Defeat
Lin Xi turned and left, leaving Boss Wang standing there, scratching his head.
Although he just said it stubbornly, he actually wanted it very much. After playing with jade for so many years, he knew it was an extremely rare warm jade as soon as he touched it. He didn't know where Lin Xi got it from.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Xi found the remaining bosses one by one and offered different conditions, but almost no one could refuse.
Even though they were determined not to give in in front of Wu Minjian just now, after hearing Lin Xi's conditions, they were all uncontrollably moved.
If it was just money, it would be easy for them, but everything Lin Xi gave was precisely the resource they most wanted to have.
Some things, such as warm jade and admission to Shuer Academy, are not something that can be obtained by spending money.
Lin Xi, alone, convinced almost everyone present, except Wu Minjian.
At first, no one wanted to embarrass people in front of Wu Minjian, but after listening to Lin Xi's words, everyone changed their minds.
They are also the owners of their own shops, so why should they regard Wu Minjian so seriously? They should be the ones to make the decisions on their own if anything happens.
What’s funny is that after getting over this psychological barrier, these people ran away quite quickly after agreeing to Lin Xi.
Finally, only Lin Xi and Wu Minjian were left in the entire venue.
Wu Minjian looked at Lin Xi, his eyes full of resentment.
He finally realized that anything that involved Lin Xi would never have a good outcome.
Lin Xi looked at Wu Minjian's pale face, but didn't care. He calculated in his heart that the shops he had bought now were enough to meet his needs, so it didn't matter whether Wu's family was there or not.
"Sorry to bother you. Goodbye." Lin Xi smiled at Wu Minjian and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Wait a minute." Wu Minjian stopped the man, "What is your purpose?"
Lin Xi was puzzled by Wu Minjian's question, "It's just business. Boss Wu, you don't think I'm coming for you, do you?"
Wu Minjian was choked by Lin Xi's words. To be honest, he did feel that Lin Xi was coming for him.
Lin Xi saw through Wu Minjian's thoughts at a glance, feeling speechless and a little disdainful, "Boss Wu, what you do is not at the same level as what I do, and I have no intention of competing with you. It's you who made a hasty judgment and caused other bosses to suffer behind you. It's really wrong."
"You!" Wu Minjian was so angry and embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed by Lin Xi that he didn't know what to do.
"I have come this far. There is nothing more to say. Goodbye, Boss Wu." After saying this, Lin Xi waved his sleeves, turned around and left.
When Lin Xi's back disappeared from his sight, Wu Minjian kicked over the round table. The noise was so loud that it scared the butler who was waiting outside the door.
…
After buying these shops, Lin Xi immediately arranged for people to move all the things inside to a large yard that she had purchased long ago.
This place is far away from the central city and will not affect the surrounding businesses.
Linxi plans to turn this place into a production base for silk rice paper, and both shipment and production will be carried out here in the future.
As for the shops that Lin Xi bought, she found the original owners and said that she could rent them out again.
When the group of people heard Lin Xi's proposal, they almost vomited blood. What did this mean? It turned out that she had gone through so much trouble just to tease them.
Of course Lin Xi didn't mean that, but she didn't care about people's misunderstanding.
If you don't want to, just find a new place yourself.
Wang Jing, who watched the whole process, said that the man from Xiao Yongyan's family was really a difficult one to deal with.
Lin Xi was deeply skeptical of Wang Jing's judgment, "Why am I so difficult?"
Wang Jing couldn't say that she was too unacceptable, so he just laughed it off and said, "I thought you would need some time."
Lin Xi said, "Time waits for no one. How long do you think the situation in the capital can last?"
Speaking of business, Wang Jing stopped joking and said, "It's hard to say now. From what I see, the situation in Beijing is almost the same. We are just waiting for someone to break the window paper."
"In that case, we need more money." Lin Xi thought for a moment, "Lianggu County is located in a remote area. In addition to selling silk and rice paper to the capital, we can also consider earning money from other places."
Wang Jing was shocked by Lin Xi's idea, "Are you... going to the south?"
Lin Xi just smiled and said nothing.
"Lin Xi, once you leave the border, many things will not be as simple as you think. If things go wrong, it will become a diplomatic issue between the two countries. No matter what, you must not take this risk." Wang Jing firmly objected. The Yourong Kingdom in the south was a tribe that was extremely difficult to deal with.
"I know you want to make more money, but some money can be earned by taking risks, and some money cannot be touched at all." Wang Jing said.
Lin Xi shrugged, "Why are you so nervous? I didn't say I was going to Yourong Country."
"Really?" Wang Jing still didn't believe it.
"Really? The border between the two countries is a place I can go whenever I want!" Lin Xi couldn't help but roll her eyes. Was Wang Jing worrying too much?
Instead of Wang Jing, Lin Xi went to the newly opened paper mill.
All the workers were poached directly from other bosses, and the same went for the equipment. Zhang Chengye was very familiar with these things and didn't need Lin Xi to explain anything. He was ready to explain the technical essentials to everyone.
Lin Xi was glad that she arrived early. If it had been later, Zhang Chengye's speech would have been over.
"Everyone," Lin Xi stood in front of everyone, "You don't have to worry about the treatment you get when you work at Lin's. It will definitely not be bad. But there is one thing I want to make clear to you all. You must not leak a single word of what you see here."
"If I find out that someone has let the cat out of the bag, I will definitely drag that person to the county government office and ask the county magistrate to judge the case."
To these common people, Hang Qi was the embodiment of terror. Once a person entered the county government office, it was impossible for him to come out safely.
Someone immediately said, "Please rest assured, boss. We have been doing this for so many years. We know the rules of the underworld and will never reveal it to anyone."
Having said that, Lin Xi is very clear that as long as they are human, there will inevitably be loopholes, and we must never pin our hopes solely on them.
She looked at Zhang Chengye and said, "I'll leave the affairs here to you for the time being. I need to go back to Taoli Village."
Zhang Chengye nodded, "Boss, don't worry, I will always be here watching."
Turning around, Lin Xi went back to Taoli Village.
Cui Hongyue was quite surprised to see Lin Xi coming back, "Boss Lin, why did you come back suddenly?"
Lin Xi smiled and said, "I have some free time now, so I'll come back and see how these silkworms are doing."
Cui Hongyue was beaming with joy, pointing at a group of newly grown silkworms and saying, "That's great. Many of these little silkworms were about to vomit to death."
Lin Xi nodded. Being able to spin silk meant that she would soon make a cocoon.
But the problem is that silk cocoons cannot be used directly. They need to go through several processes to become flat silk before they can be used conveniently.
Lin Xi wondered if there was any way to avoid this step.
