Chapter 164: Embezzlement of Money
At the command, Huanxue and Tianzhu stepped forward together. One of them kicked Shuangbai to his knees, and the other stepped forward and slapped him in the face with great force. After a few slaps, blood began to flow from the corner of Shuangbai's mouth.
Lin Pianran didn't call for a stop, but Tianzhu didn't stop either, and the slaps kept falling down.
In a blink of an eye, twenty or thirty slaps were delivered. Shuangbai's mouth was full of blood, her cheeks were red and swollen, and her hair was disheveled. She was completely different from her bright and cute appearance just now.
It has become an ugly pig-head face.
Shuangbai kept sobbing and begging for mercy, but Lin Pianran turned a blind eye.
It’s too late to beg for mercy now!
She hated these traitorous slaves and would never give them another chance to make trouble.
Only when Lin Pianran saw Shuangbai beaten beyond recognition did she feel the evil in her heart.
He waved his hand mercifully, "Tianzhu, stop it for now! Don't beat him to death!..."
Lin Pianran looked at the trembling Nanny Ming beside her and asked, "What's going on? Nanny, do you have anything to say?"
"If you dare not tell the truth, I will not care about respecting the elderly and loving the young, let alone the relationship between master and servant. Be careful, I will cut off your tongue and make you unable to speak from now on."
"And your son, daughter, daughter-in-law, and your little grandson, I won't let any of them go."
Nanny Ming quickly knelt down, kowtowed repeatedly, and begged for mercy, fearing that their family would be targeted by Lin Pianran.
"Miss, we were wrong, please forgive us! It was...it was the young master, we all did it according to his orders..."
"Before you went hunting, Madam Lin told us to follow the eldest young master's orders in everything."
"The eldest young master recently took a mistress in Wuyun Lane. He wanted to buy her some expensive jewelry, so he took a lot of money from our shop and also took a lot of good things from other shops and sent them to his mistress..."
"The reason why the eldest young master didn't go hunting was all because of that concubine. She is now eight months pregnant and is about to give birth. The eldest young master loves her very much..."
"I also heard that an experienced maid has been found to examine the concubine's baby. It is said that this baby is most likely a boy..."
"Besides, the eldest young master also asked us to make false accounts so that we can fool you when you come back."
"As for Shuang Bai, she has long been involved with the Young Master and has long obeyed his every word. The Young Master even promised her that after his wife came into the house, he would immediately take her into his room and from then on, free her from her slave status..."
"I have always been a good servant and have done nothing wrong to the young lady. I was forced to do everything by the young master and Shuang Bai. I had no choice but to obey their orders..."
"If you want to punish me, please find Shuangbai!"
As expected, the old man is very cunning. As soon as he saw that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, he betrayed Shuangbai completely.
This kind of villain is the most hateful. He has no loyalty to his master at all. He can betray anyone and do anything bad. He has no bottom line as a human being.
Killing her on the spot would not be a pity.
As for her true identity, Lin Pianran had known it long ago. No matter how good her acting was, she couldn't deceive her at all.
These two traitorous dogs should be kept for the time being. They will be the best weapons to use against the Lin family and Lin Chumo.
Once their last bit of surplus value has been squeezed out, they will either be handed over to the authorities for investigation or sent directly to death to appear before the King of Hell.
However, she had to deal with the food issue first before she had time to deal with Lin Chumo.
It seems that it is necessary to go to the Lin family at night and collect all the things she left at the Lin family. She must not let the Lin family get away with it.
When the Lin family's hunters come back and see an empty mansion, they will surely be overjoyed.
Nanny Ming took Lin Pianran to the grain store's warehouse first, which was almost empty.
Nanny Ming quickly explained, "Grain prices have risen significantly. Five days ago, the eldest son ordered Shopkeeper Wang to sell all the grain at a price slightly lower than one-tenth of the market price."
"Food prices are rising every day. It's very difficult to buy food at a low price."
"And he took the opportunity to make friends with two powerful families, one is the Marquis of Changping Mansion, and the other is the Duke of Song Mansion."
In the previous life, Nanny Ming betrayed Lin Pianran without mercy. Now that she sees that the situation is not right, she betrays Lin Chumo without reservation.
He is indeed an old man who knows practical matters.
Lin Pianran despised and hated such people to the extreme.
After she got the key to the warehouse, she asked Huanxue and Tianzhu to take Shuangbai and Nanny Ming to "Taoran Ju" first.
That was Lin Pianran's restaurant, with a courtyard specially opened for her.
First, lock up these two traitors in the woodshed, prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstone for them, and let them honestly confess all the crimes they have committed.
He also asked Jingyu to inform Huo Yuchen to bring people to get food.
After sending away all the people around him, Lin Pianran filled the two warehouses with food.
Just waiting for Huo Yuchen and the others to arrive.
Lin Pianran, while waiting for someone, checked the account book of the grain shop.
From Nanny Ming's explanation, Lin Pianran learned the price at which the grain was sold five days ago. What she saw now were just fake account books.
The price recorded in the fake account book was the price of grain that had just increased recently, which was less than one-third of the selling price.
It seems that Lin Chumo is really black-hearted. He actually dared to embezzle so much money from her shop. He is really bold!
Don’t be afraid of stuffing yourself to death!
It seems that she has to go to the Lin family in the evening. She only does business to make money, so how could she be willing to suffer losses?
Watching her money flow into other people's pockets was like cutting flesh from her body, making her feel painful and uncomfortable.
How could she just sit there and wait for death?
Is that still Lin Pianran?
She, Lin Pianran, is a Pixiu, a lucky star that only brings in money but never gives it away.
Therefore, all the treasures of the Lin family must belong to her.
After waiting for less than half an hour, Huo Yuchen arrived as expected, bringing many empty carriages to load food.
When I saw the two warehouses full of food, I was both happy and surprised.
He hurriedly ordered the Black Cloud Guards to transport all the food away.
He asked seriously, "Pianpian, what price do you think is appropriate for these grains? I can't let you suffer a loss, right?"
Lin Pianran smiled and didn't care at all.
