Chapter 42 Closing the Net
Since that day, Lin Mobai's stubbornness was completely cured, and he would no longer be allergic to safflower, which was a blessing.
The next day, under the intentional or unintentional guidance of Lin Baoer, Sun Zice found out that the owner of Ban Su Pu was the Hu family, and the person who came up with the idea of adding safflower to the pastries was Hu Tianxun, in order to take revenge on the Lin family and avenge the humiliation he suffered in Changsheng Building.
Although it was unknown where he got the news that Lin Mobai was allergic to safflower, it didn't matter later. When Sun Zice found him, the two of them had a fight.
The fight was so shocking that it attracted all the people in Jingzhao Prefecture. If they were not the sons of the Hu and Sun families, the consequences would not only be a minor punishment, but also imprisonment for reflection.
When Lin Baoer learned the news, she was counting points on her fingers.
After the matter of Sun Zice was settled, another fifty points were credited to her account. Together with the previous points, the total was already six hundred and fifty points.
When she counted to the end, Lin Baoer's chest was filled with satisfaction. She felt that her future life would be bright and she was one step closer to becoming a rich woman!
However, when can I get rid of this baby body...
Lin Baoer sighed with a pursed mouth.
When she was bored, she liked to go shopping in this system mall. She was dazzled by the food and daily necessities, but unfortunately, there was nothing she could use.
She was thinking about buying something for her three brothers, but as she was choosing, she began to feel bad. She couldn't spend the 650 points she had saved so hard so quickly, right?
So in the end, she didn't spend the points.
"Dad, the people sent to Jiangnan have brought back the news."
That day, in the study, Lin Zhiyu placed a letter on the table in front of him with a solemn expression. His tone was low and harsh, with a hint of anger, "I didn't expect that Prime Minister Shen not only bought and sold official positions and accepted bribes, but he also colluded with Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of Revenue, taking advantage of the Ministry's omissions and doing things for his own convenience, wantonly collecting disaster funds and withholding disaster relief funds! Among them, Huishui County was the worst hit, with less than one-tenth of the disaster relief funds allocated!"
"The people are full of resentment and their lives are miserable! Those who tried their best to report were killed one by one on the way, resulting in the news being unable to be transmitted back to the capital! In this way, they monopolized the entire Jiangnan region!"
"He actually dared to do such a rebellious thing, he is so audacious!" Lin Zhiyu was so angry that he almost crushed the jade ring in his hand.
"Since there are so many dangers on the way back, how did our people come back?" Lin Qiming did not read the letter, but teased Lin Baoer on the table with the tip of the wolf hair brush, and his eyebrows softened at her giggle.
Today, Shen Xuelan and Qinglian went to the Frost Temple outside the city to fulfill their vows, so it was inconvenient to take Lin Baoer with them, so they entrusted it to Lin Qiming.
Lin Zhiyu's expression became a little heavy after hearing this, "Those who fought hard and came back alive are the prince's subordinates. Our people...had already died on the road, and none of them survived."
"They are like a big net entangled in Jiangnan. No one can escape from their five fingers. Only outsiders can crack it." Lin Qiming sighed lightly, carried Lin Baoer back to the rocking chair, stood with his hands behind his back, looking solemn, "Did the prince's people get the evidence?" "
The person with the evidence is still on the road. The road is very dangerous, so he can't walk as fast as the person who reported the news." Lin Zhiyu's brows were stained with sadness, "Is it because if that person encounters an accident, we will have no hope of completely suppressing him."
"It's not done yet, don't say sad words." Lin Qiming glanced at him, pondered for a while, and said, "Is there a route for that person to return to Beijing?"
"That man's whereabouts are elusive, even the prince is not sure of his whereabouts." Lin Zhiyu shook his head.
Jiangnan tax collection... Huishui County...
Lin Baoer chewed her fingers and pondered, and soon she thought of the part in the original plot that was only described in a few words.
[Going south to north, circling the water, meeting bonfires on land, looking up to the revival. ]
[Why is it so obscure and difficult to understand? ]
Lin Baoer's brows were wrinkled so much that they could pinch a fly to death, and she secretly cursed the original author in her heart.
[Can't you make it easier to understand? ! Only a ghost knows where he escaped from! No wonder he was intercepted and killed by the Prime Minister's Mansion later. It would be strange if he didn't get killed in this way! 】
Listening to her mumbling, Lin Qiming's eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the paper.
"Zhongxing Village, a hundred miles outside Yanjing City."
"So we just need to set up an ambush there and wait?" Lin Zhiyu was overjoyed.
Lin Baoer:?
I didn't blink, how come you two have telepathy behind my back? Halfway through the sentence, where exactly are we setting up an ambush? !
Lin Qiming nodded, "You don't have to go, just tell the prince, I think he should be happy to do this."
"Yes."
The two people's cryptic conversation directly confused Lin Baoer, but it was only confused for a while, and then she chose to lie down and sleep.
Anyway, her eldest brother and father knew what to do, so she didn't have to work hard to get involved.
Great!
Unfortunately, before he could close his eyes, Lin Ruqian's wailing could be heard outside the study.
"Dad! Dad! Dad!"
"Calling for your soul?!" Lin Qiming couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him on the head.
Lin Ruqian rubbed his head in grievance, his handsome face wrinkled, "Dad, my shop has been targeted, I want you to lend me the Qin Huyuan!"
"Didn't I tell you not to leave the house these few days?!" Lin Qiming's forehead veins were looming, and he almost slapped him again, "What happened to your shops again?!" Lin Ruqian
hid behind Lin Zhiyu with a guilty conscience, and carefully poked half of his head out, "The weather has been getting hotter recently, it's time to eat cold drinks. Originally, I developed a very novel cold drink in my shop, which is quite popular among the people."
"But I don't know which bastard opened a shop opposite me after stealing my skills. He sells whatever I sell, and his prices are always lower than mine. As a result, most people go to him to buy."
Lin Ruqian became angrier and angrier, her face flushed with anger, and her tiger teeth were exposed: "I went to him to reason with him, but he looked down on me as a little kid and drove me out! Not only that, he even said in public that all the pastries and cold drinks I sell in my shop were learned from him. He is so shameless!" "So
you borrowed Qin Huyuan to beat him up?" Lin Zhiyu raised his eyebrows.
"That... not necessarily." Lin Ruqian's eyes were erratic, and he was not confident enough.
Lin Qiming was troubled after hearing this. Just when he wanted to scold the man and send him out, the little ancestor in the room started to make trouble again.
