Chapter 11 Going to the Finance Room



"It shouldn't be him."

Staring quietly at Lin Hao's figure, Zhao Linger shook her head secretly, denying her previous thought.

Because she knows Lin Hao's details and background better than anyone else.

Although he comes from the Lin family, an ancient martial arts family, he was born blind and has been unable to practice martial arts since childhood. He can hardly take care of himself and is like a useless person.

In this situation, how could one suddenly cast magic? It was absolutely impossible.

"Strange, was it just my illusion just now?"

Zhao Linger frowned slightly, her expression changing. This was the only reason she felt was the most appropriate.

After all, there are examples of hallucinations or hearing errors during meditation.

As Zhao Linger's mind changed, she looked around and found nothing unusual, so she went back to the dormitory, closed the door and went to sleep.

"That was a close call. I almost got caught."

Lin Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he had asked Kung Fu Xiaoying to keep watch in advance.

Otherwise, if Zhao Linger finds out, I really don’t know how to explain it.

Besides, he was not in a hurry to expose his abilities until he became really strong.

Only in this way can we better protect ourselves.

Because of what happened just now, Lin Hao had no intention of continuing to meditate.

In this way, Lin Hao lay on the floor and gradually fell asleep.

With the guards of Kung Fu Flies and Wolf Spiders, he spent the most comfortable night since he traveled through time...

And in the dead of night, the lobby in the front yard of the Zhao Mansion was still brightly lit.

In the main seat, a middle-aged man with a dignified demeanor was sitting solemnly.

He is the head of the Zhao family, Zhao Gaolie.

Next to him stood a gray-haired old man. Although his face was full of wrinkles, his eyes were bright.

"I heard that in the cafeteria tonight, the third steward Qin Chi had a dispute with Lin Hao and his tendons were cut."

Zhao Gaolie frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

"I was not there at the time, and I only heard it from hearsay."

The gray-haired old man shook his head and said, "However, according to what the young masters in the mansion saw, it seems that it was a fly that injured Qin Chi."

fly?!

Hearing this, Zhao Gaolie was slightly stunned and stared at the gray-haired old man in surprise.

Qin Chi, who was able to injure a first-level warrior in an instant, was at least as strong as a second-level warrior.

But if it is an animal, it is difficult for ordinary beasts to do it, let alone a fly.

In this case, the biggest possibility is World of Warcraft.

Because, compared with ordinary wild beasts, they are much stronger and have great lethality.

But among all kinds of monsters, flies that can attack are unprecedented.

"There's something fishy about this."

Zhao Gaolie's eyes darkened slightly, and he ordered: "Zhao Rong, pay more attention to Lin Hao during this period of time."

"OK."

The gray-haired old man nodded respectfully, and then asked doubtfully: "Lin Hao is just a blind man, is the master of the family doubting him?"

When talking about Lin Hao, a hint of calmness flashed in Zhao Gaolie's eyes.

"It's not impossible."

Zhao Gaolie looked indifferent and said in a low voice: "Just do as I tell you."

"yes."

After saying this, the gray-haired old man slowly walked out of the door and suddenly disappeared into the night...

The next morning.

When Lin Hao woke up, he found Lin Shuang'er still sitting in meditation.

It seems that talent is not only important, but diligence is also necessary.

Lin Hao sighed inwardly, then simply washed up and headed straight to the cafeteria with Kung Fu Fly and Wolf Spider.

No matter how big the matter is, filling your stomach first is the most important thing.

In the cafeteria, after what happened yesterday, the chefs looked at Lin Hao with fear on their faces, as if they had seen the god of plague.

Especially the fat chef, who didn't even dare to report his injury, and only said to others that he accidentally cut off his finger while cutting vegetables.

After all, the reason was too sensitive. Could it be that he was about to beat up his brother-in-law, but suddenly lost three fingers for some reason?

I'm afraid I might even lose my job by then and can only blame myself for my bad luck!

"Today's dishes feel a bit shabby."

Lin Hao pretended to sniff and said indifferently.

However, most of the dishes on those plates were steamed buns and minced meat as side dishes.

The chefs' hearts trembled slightly, and they hurriedly took out the high-quality ingredients that only the senior members of the Zhao family could enjoy and gave them to Lin Hao as breakfast.

Lin Hao nodded in satisfaction, and under the astonished gazes of many Zhao family members, he took the plate of food, found a seat, and began to enjoy his meal.

After eating and drinking, Lin Hao changed his mind and walked towards the finance office in the North Courtyard.

In the Zhao Mansion, every member will receive corresponding salary according to their status level.

As the eldest son-in-law of the Zhao family, he could earn about five thousand taels every month.

After marrying into the wife's family for half a year, he has never collected a monthly salary because he maintains a low-key lifestyle and is content with just having food and drink.

But it’s different now. The evolution of the system often costs more than ten thousand taels, and money is extremely scarce.

Half a year is six months, which is equivalent to thirty thousand taels. We can't waste it.

The finance room is the most important area of ​​the Zhao family, so it is naturally heavily guarded, and the person in charge also holds a pivotal position in the mansion.

The manager was none other than Zhao Mansion’s chief steward, Zhao Rong.

Compared with the second steward Ma Tianyun and the third steward Qin Chi, his identity and status in the Zhao Mansion are obviously much higher.

Because Zhao Rong is not a foreign bloodline, but a native member of the Zhao family.

It is said that he was born out of wedlock, but was able to climb to the position of chief steward. One can imagine how powerful his methods were.

Lin Hao simply disdained this. No matter how powerful he was, he could not withhold the money he deserved.

When he arrived at the North Courtyard, Lin Hao discovered that there were many Zhao family thugs stationed in every corridor here.

Each of them is strong and has a calm aura, and all of them are warriors with the strength of level two.

"The finance department is a restricted area. No outsiders are allowed to wander around here!"

A rough voice sounded, and a bearded man strode over at the head.

Seeing that it was Lin Hao, he was stunned at first, then sneered: "So it's you, so it seems that you are really wandering around."

The Zhao family thugs around them also laughed unabashedly.

Lin Hao is a blind man, and the way he wanders around is very appropriate to the word "wandering around blindly".

"I'm here to get some money from the finance room. Please move aside."

Lin Hao's words were very polite.

"You want to withdraw money too?"

Hearing this, the bearded man laughed and said, "If I give you a gold note, you may not even know how much it is worth, haha."

Lin Hao raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said lightly: "Really? Then we can make a bet."

"What's the bet?"

The bearded man stopped laughing and asked jokingly.

"You take out anything and if I can guess what it is, you lose."

Lin Hao said calmly: "As for the bet, if I guess wrong, my salary for half a year in the Zhao Mansion, thirty thousand taels, will all belong to you."

"If you lose, 10,000 taels will be enough. How about that?"

Thirty thousand taels!

Upon hearing this number, the bearded man's eyes lit up and he was obviously tempted.

However, his monthly salary was only three thousand taels. If he lost, it would be equivalent to working for several months in vain, which was a considerable risk.

"Old Li, if you don't dare to gamble, let me do it."

"Yeah, I've never seen a blind man guessing correctly, haha."

Seeing the bearded man hesitating, the Zhao family thugs nearby started to make a fuss.

"Bullshit, there's nothing I wouldn't dare to do."

The bearded man was furious and stared at Lin Hao, "Okay, I'll make a bet with you."

He then changed the subject, "However, the rule is that you can't hold it in your hand and study it for too long, ten seconds at most."

"no problem."

Lin Hao's expression was calm, and he did not show any objection to this harsh rule.
