Chapter 157
Shen lang was really curious about how Lin Mo from the splendid Pavilion managed to survive until now.
And it seemed like he wanted to stand up for them.
Who was this official behind him? He looked a little familiar.
He was an official from the weaving department of Yue State.
Xu Guangyun was the big businessman who worked with weaving house. Now that he was dead, perhaps Lin Mo had taken this opportunity?
“Boss Lin, did you accept Xu Guangyun’s business?” Shen lang asked.
I’m just a nobody, ” Lin Mo said. I’m grateful for the love of the Lords of the weaving house and have taken over Xu Guangyun’s position as the boss.
Shen lang said, ” congratulations! Master Xu’s death is truly a pity. The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu is also a big silkworm farmer. In the future, we will still need Lin Dongzhu’s help.”
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu has no future.
Lin Mo put on a fake smile.
He used to be a cautious man, but after his son Lin Zhuo died, he lost his hypocritical and pretentious nature.
Then what did he rely on to replace Xu Guangyun and become a business partner of the weaving house?
The palace of the Earl of Jing ‘an.
Wu Zhao had sent someone to kill Lin Zhuo. He could have killed Lin Mo like he was killing an ant, but he did not do so.
Because he saw the huge potential benefits.
Xu Guangyun was dead, and the Xu family had fallen.
However, someone had to take over the business of the weaving house. The countless silkworm farmers in Tiannan province had to find a way out.
The Xu family had collapsed, leaving behind a huge market share that could not be filled.
Therefore, Lin Mo’s beautiful Pavilion was a rare commodity.
Therefore, the Earl of Jing ‘an’s residence and Lin Mo hit it off immediately. From then on, Lin Mo became the white glove of the Wu family.
The Earl of Jing an also helped Lin Mo obtain the qualifications to become a Wang merchant and cooperate with the weaving house.
Therefore, Lin Mo, the owner of the beautiful Pavilion, was back on his feet.
Now, Shen lang had come to their door to slap them in the face. Furthermore, he had the support of the officials of the weaving house.
Uncle Black Tortoise was indeed the pillar of support for the entire clan. Now that he had fallen ill, any Tom, Dick, or Harry would jump out.
Of course, Lin Mo did not come here just to slap his face.
He was testing the waters on behalf of the person behind this.
Let’s see if the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu is really in a desperate situation and what the bottom line is!
Then, look at Zhu Wenhua!
He was actually wearing an official’s uniform. He was the Registrar of Xuanwu city and was in charge of the prison.
That’s right, it was Wang Ben’s previous position.
He was also a high scholar, so he was more than qualified for this position.
City Lord Liu Wuyan wasn’t the only one who had come with Zhu Wenhua. There were also officials from the governor’s office and the governor’s office.
Not only that, there was even an official from the capital.
I’m Wang Qike, the Deputy of the Supreme Court. I heard that young master Shen lang went south a few days ago, and the path he took overlapped with the area where Viscount Zhu Lanting died. Therefore, I’m here to investigate.
The Supreme Court was the highest authority in the entire Yue State. Previously, it was called the Supreme Court, but it was later changed to the Supreme Court, responsible for major cases.
Now, even this organization had been mobilized. It was a very big move.
Just Zhu Wenhua alone was not enough to command the Supreme Court. There was still a powerful figure behind him.
Then, who was the one who ordered the Deputy of the Supreme Court to find trouble with Shen lang?
Zhongyue?
Or a certain Prince.
It was definitely not the monarch.
The Earl of Xuanwu had already fallen ill, and the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was on the verge of destruction.
At this time, the monarch would only continue to show his kindness and mercy.
While killing you, he would continuously send the Imperial physicians to treat uncle Black Tortoise.
It was the servants ‘job to push a fallen wall, but the king could not do it.
Or Governor Zhu Rong?
No, it couldn’t be Governor-General Zhu. He was going to help the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
He was one of the main driving forces behind the destruction of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. He only cared about the big picture and would not make a big fuss over the death of Viscount Zhu Lanting.
If it was not the king or the Governor-General, it would not be lethal.
Almost instantly, Shen Lang’s mind was clear.
Then, he said to Lin Mo of the beautiful Pavilion, ” “Boss Lin, I really didn’t think that everything would come together.”
Lin Mo sneered.
Everyone kicks a man when he’s down.
Everyone stepped on him.
This was very normal, and this was only the beginning.
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was about to be finished. If they wanted to take revenge, who knew how many people would take the opportunity to trample on them?
Because if he didn’t step on them now, he wouldn’t have the chance.
“Boss Lin, I owe you 1000 gold coins, right?” Shen lang said gently.
“Together with interest, it’s already 1300 gold coins,” Lin Mo said.
Shen lang said, ” I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I almost forgot about this debt. Someone, go and get 1300 gold coins.”
“Son-in-law, we really don’t have much money left,” Jin Zhong said, startled.
Shen lang said, ” you have to pay what you owe. It’s only right. Go and get the money.
“Yes.” Jin Zhong said.
After a while, he came back with a box with 1300 gold coins.
Together with the box, they weighed about a hundred Jin.
“Boss Lin, please order,” Shen lang said.
Lin Mo opened the box with a silk cushion, then covered his nose with silk and looked at the gold coins in the box.
As someone who often dealt with money, he could tell how much money was in there at a glance.
However, he would not touch this sum of money.
Shen lang was too vicious. Who knew what he had done to the gold coin? he even held his breath.
Shen lang said, ” boss Lin, let’s call it even. I don’t owe you any more debts.
you have already paid off the debt you owe me, ” Lin Mo said coldly. but the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu has not paid off the debt they owe me.
“When did the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu owe you a debt?” Shen lang was stunned.
the people in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s fief rear silkworms, ” Lin Mo said. all the cocoons are sold to me and Xu Guangyun, right? ”
Shen lang said, ” that’s right. There’s such a thing. 70% will be sold to Xu Guangyun. 30% will be sold to your silk Pavilion.
Lin Mo said,’it’s exactly because of this that we provide your silkworm seeds every year. For this year’s autumn silkworms, I have provided a total of 50000 silkworm seeds for the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu. However, you didn’t sell your cocoons to my family this year, so shouldn’t you return the money for these 50000 sheets of silkworm seeds to me?”
Each silkworm seed contained about 30000 eggs, which were worth one silver coin. So, 50000 silkworm seeds were equivalent to 2500 gold coins.
“2500 gold coins, plus four months” interest, a total of 3300 gold coins.”
Shen lang was amused.
Back then, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu took the initiative to sell the cocoons to you, Lin Mo. You were the one who refused to accept them in order to work with Xu Guangyun to block the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s economy.
Now, you’re using the excuse that you didn’t sell the cocoon to your family to ask for money for the silkworm seed.
Are you trying to test the bottom line of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu for your master?
Are you trying to test how miserable we are?
Shen lang was troubled. the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu has suffered too many losses in the battle of the gold Mountain Island. There are too many things that we need to spend money on. We can’t turn things around quickly. Master Lin, can you delay it for a few days? ”
“Then how many days exactly?” Lin Mo asked.
“Just three days. Let’s take it easy for three days,” Shen lang said.
Lin Mo said, ” it’s only right to pay back what you owe. I don’t want to delay it for three days. I want to get back this debt now.
Even if he had to test the bottom line of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu for the master behind him, Lin Mo would not dare to be so arrogant.
But because the chiliarch of the black water station was right there, he dared to be so presumptuous.
That was because Shen lang would probably be captured by the Yamen of the black water platform for questioning.
As for those who entered the Blackwater Grand prison, regardless of whether they were guilty or not, they would first lose half their lives.
Shen lang said, ” why don’t we do this? Lin Dongzhu, you can give me three days. After three days, I will return you 3500 gold coins. I can write a loan receipt. How about it? ”
Lin Mo thought for a while and said,’for the sake of uncle Black Tortoise, I’ll agree.’
Then, Shen lang wrote a receipt.
He owed Lin Mo 3500 gold coins and would return it within three days.
If he did not return it, Lin Mo had the power to take away 500 mu of fertile land from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
“Farewell!” Lin Mo of the silk Pavilion.
Then, he walked out.
When he reached the door, Lin Mo could not help but say, ” “Shen lang, the river flows thirty years to the East and thirty years to the West! You were arrogant and despotic before, with no bottom line at all. Now that you’re in such a miserable state, do you have any regrets?”
Then, Lin Mo left.
Zhu Wenhua, the new mayor of Xuanwu city, said, ” Shen lang, now that you have paid off your debts, it’s our turn, right? come with us and tell us how you killed my father in detail.
Just now, Lin Mo had called a deer a horse and distorted black and white to demand a debt from Shen lang.
In the end, Shen lang kept compromising and allowed the other party to extort him.
Such weakness was simply laughable.
Shen lang, how arrogant were you previously?
Now that the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was in a desperate situation, Shen lang had become a good-for-nothing.
Even a small merchant can step on you!
Not to mention that I’ve brought an even bigger lineup this time, even the Supreme Court’s Deputy has come.
When ordinary people heard the name of the court of judicial review, they would almost wet their pants.
Those who entered the court of judicial review would at least lose a layer of skin even if they didn’t die.
Almost all of the higher-ups in the Supreme Court were extremely ruthless officials, ruthless officials who killed without blinking.
Shen lang bowed and said, ” Sirs, I don’t know why, but I’m actually sweating profusely. In order to not be rude, I will go and change my clothes. Then, I will come and talk to you.
Zhu Wenhua laughed. it’s autumn and winter. It’s so cold. Yet, uncle Shen lang is sweating from the heat. Are you afraid or guilty? ”
“I’ve laughed at you, I’ve laughed at you.” Shen lang bowed and said.
After that, he retreated to the back room to change his clothes.
Shen Shisan knelt in front of him, motionless.
“Go kill Lin Mo.” Shen lang ordered.
“Yes!” Shen thirteen said. Then, he went out to handle some matters.
Shen lang said, ” you’re so clumsy. Do you know how to kill him? ”
“Master, please give me your instructions,” Shen thirteen said.
Shen lang said, ” this master of the splendid Pavilion is really amazing. Tian Heng is dead, Xu Guangyun is dead, Zhu Lanting is dead, but this Lin Mo is not. He even came out to slap my face. Amazing, amazing.
Shen thirteen kneeled on the ground, not daring to move.
Shen lang said,”since he’s so powerful, I’ll let him die in a unique way!” However, it can not have anything to do with the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.”
“I’m slow-witted, master, please tell me,” Shen thirteen said.
Shen lang said,’is there anyone else in Lin Mo’s family?
“When Lin Zhuo died, all his servants and concubines ran away, leaving him with a wife and two sons,” Shen Shisan said.
kill them all, ” Shen lang said. and that official from the weaving house. If he lives in Lin Mo’s house, kill him too!
Shen thirteen trembled.
Even though that official was only a lower seventh rank, he was still an official of the weaving house.
If they were all killed together, the consequences would be very shocking!
Shen lang closed his eyes and thought of a way to kill Lin Mo’s family without being suspicious.
In just half a minute, he had an idea.
Shen lang said, ” Lin Mo was on the run previously, so the Lin family’s residence has been abandoned for a long time. There are many things to be done. They lack servants, and no one brushes the toilet. It must be very dirty. Think of a way to sneak into the Lin family. Even if there’s a toilet, make it so that no one can use it. ”
“Yes!” Shen Shisan’s face trembled.
then, ” Shen lang said, ” put some laxatives in their food to make them have diarrhea.
“Yes!” Shen thirteen said.
Shen lang said, ” since the toilet can’t be used, we can only go to the toilet at home. The toilet hasn’t been cleaned for a long time, so there must be a lot of methane gas. Bring a small bucket of sulfuric acid and pour it into the toilet. This way, a large amount of hydrogen gas will be produced. Hydrogen and methane are mixed together, so when these people go to the toilet, you ignite the methane inside and cause a big explosion.”
“Right, this way of dying is quite unique! At the same time, sawed off half of the pedal and let them fall with a plop.”
he fell in and drowned. Then, he was blown to pieces and his body was unrecognizable.
Then, Shen lang explained every step to Shen thirteen in detail and asked him to follow the instructions.
alright, go do your work. I’ll be waiting for your triumphant return at home.
“Yes!” Shen Shisan knelt on the ground.
His scalp was really numb.
“Thirteen, why are you shaking?” Shen lang could not help but ask.
“Master, what do you think I’m shaking for?” Shen Shisan’s heart trembled.
Fortunately, master, you didn’t want to kill me. If I knew, I would have killed myself in advance.
......
Xiao Bing helped Shen Lang Change his clothes.
Shen lang racked his brain for a solution.
What should he do to Zhu Wenhua, Liu Wuyan, and the judge of the court of judicial review?
Kill them all?
No, no!
It would be enough to kill Lin Mo’s family and an official of the weaving mansion.
After all, the Deputy of the Supreme Court was an official from the capital. If he was killed, the responsibility would be too great.
Moreover, they were still in the palace of the Earl. If someone were to die, the consequences would be too serious.
How should he harm them?
At this moment, Jin Zhong said from outside, ” “Son-in-law, Zhu Wenhua and the others are getting impatient. They want you to leave quickly, or else they’ll come in and arrest you.”
