Chapter 369 Seeing off guests
"Brother Duanmu, what should I do? By the way, Brother Duanmu has helped me many times these days, and I am very grateful. Come and give Brother Duanmu another five hundred taels of silver."
Lin Xiao said to the family members beside him.
"Clan Chief Lin, wait a minute, a gentleman would not take advantage of others' danger. This matter is related to the safety of the Lin family. We must get through this first before talking about anything else."
Duanmu Liangchuan stopped.
The time has come to close the net, and no mistakes can be made. In exchange for Lin Xiao's trust, not to mention five hundred taels of silver, even five thousand taels of silver would be worth it.
Sure enough, Lin Xiao's face showed a hint of gratitude.
"Brother Duanmu is righteous."
In his opinion, Duanmu Liangchuan has the integrity of a scholar, and for this reason, he trusts Duanmu Liangchuan very much.
"Come, Chief Lin, take a sip of tea first."
Duanmu Liangchuan poured Lin Xiao a cup of tea and then started to analyze:
"Then what Zhao Zihan means, can't Chief Lin still understand?"
"Four-fifths of the property, seven thousand taels of silver, there is no room for negotiation. It is obvious that there was no intention to negotiate from the beginning, but to destroy the Lin family and divide the Lin family's property."
Lin Xiao took a sip of tea and nodded in approval.
"However, his sudden appearance really disrupted all our plans. If Chief Lin has no other back-up, then the only one we can rely on now is County Magistrate Lin. If he is willing to protect us, we will have a chance. vitality."
Duanmu Liangchuan continued.
"indeed."
Lin Xiao nodded slightly. Lin Xiaofan had Zhao Shan's support behind him. If he could convince Zhao Shan, he could compete with Zhao Zihan.
"This matter must be done quickly, before the Wang family can get Magistrate Lin to change his mind and help us. Then Zhao Zihan has a big appetite, and he might have a dispute with Magistrate Lin, so we still have some time."
Duanmu Liangchuan thought for a moment and then said.
"But what if County Magistrate Lin also wants to take action against our Lin family?"
Lin Xiao expressed his worries.
Although he and Lin Xiaofan had a good relationship on the surface, they were all for profit.
If there is a chance to swallow up the Lin family, Lin Xiaofan will inevitably fall out.
Duanmu Liangchuan also had a headache about this. How could he make Lin Xiao, an old fox, completely trust Magistrate Lin?
Talking about loyalty and integrity will definitely not scare this old fox. Only a strong relationship of interests can make Lin Xiao believe it.
"Clan Chief Lin, I have a plan. Now that we are mortal enemies with Zhao Zihan and the Wang family, why not mix the water completely and find a way to cause a conflict between County Magistrate Lin and Zhao Zihan."
Zhao Zihan represents the Wang family. As long as he and Magistrate Lin are allowed to act out a drama and cause conflicts, Magistrate Lin will have to interpret dreams with the Lin family.
"How to do this plan? I hope Brother Duanmu can teach me."
Lin Xiao bowed and asked.
……
In the Yamen, Lin Xiaofan was discussing countermeasures with Zhao Shan.
"So my last step is to put on a play with Zhao Zihan. The two of us pretend to have a breakup, so as to gain the trust of the Lin family and obtain evidence of guilt."
Lin Xiaofan said slowly.
After the words fell, a slave quickly walked into the house.
"Sir, Wang Cheng is here to visit."
Lin Xiaofan and Zhao Shan looked at each other, and Zhao Shan left with a clear understanding.
Wang Cheng came and Zhao Zihan walked beside him.
Seeing Zhao Zihan looking arrogant and domineering, Lin Xiaofan frowned and asked:
"Brother Wang Cheng, let's talk about something, why do we need to bring a junior here."
"Haha, Magistrate Lin, this is Zhao Zihan of the Zhao family in the capital."
Wang Cheng smiled apologetically and opened his mouth to introduce, while watching Lin Xiaofan's reaction.
When Lin Xiaofan heard about the identity of the Zhao family, his expression changed slightly, and then he put on a smile and kept his mouth closed.
"It turns out that it's Mr. Zhao who is ignorant of Taishan. Just now, Miss Zhao Shan came to see me."
"Zhao Shan is my cousin. Since you and my sister know each other, I won't care too much about what happened before."
Zhao Zihan said.
Seeing that Zhao Zihan was not as arrogant as before, Wang Cheng was relieved. If there was a breakup with Lin Xiaofan here, things would be completely out of control.
"Take a seat, you two. I wonder why you two are here?"
Lin Xiaofan asked.
"Magistrate Lin, I won't beat around the bush with you. Now I have formed an alliance with the Wang family and want to destroy the Lin family and the Xiang family."
Zhao Zihan spoke directly.
Wang Cheng sat quietly aside and acquiesced to this matter.
When he decided to bring Zhao Zihan here, he had already thought of this scene.
His eyes were fixed on Lin Xiaofan, and if there was anything wrong, he would stop the conversation.
However, Lin Xiaofan has experienced several life and death moments in his two lives, and has already developed a detached mentality, so naturally he will not be nervous or lose his temper.
"Mr. Zhao, I have a cooperative relationship with the Lin family now, so please stop messing around. Chief of the royal family, please take Mr. Zhao away."
Lin Xiaofan took a sip of tea and said slowly.
"Haha, Magistrate Lin, there is no one else here. Let me ask you, don't you want to divide the Lin family?"
Zhao Zihan seemed to have expected it and asked.
Hearing this, Lin Xiaofan frowned slightly and said:
"Mr. Zhao, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. As the county magistrate, everything must be done in accordance with national laws. The Lin family is operating his property honestly and has not violated national laws. Why should I attack him?"
Hearing these words, Wang Cheng's face became more joyful.
Seeing Lin Xiaofan like this, he must have been moved.
Zhao Zihan saw that everything was as he expected, so he resumed his usual publicity and spoke loudly:
"County Magistrate Lin, I have the charges against the Lin family and the Xiang family. I leave it to you to kill the Lin family and the Xiang family. After that, we will divide the property of the two families eighty-two, eight for me and two for you. "
Hearing this, Wang Cheng suddenly felt bad.
How could Lin Xiaofan agree to this assignment?
"Mr. Zhao, Lin Xiao is my friend. Please don't accuse him of unfounded charges. Come and see the guests off!"
Just as Wang Cheng expected, Lin Xiaofan directly issued an eviction order.
No one will agree to this share.
Moreover, Lin Xiaofan was also annoyed now. With their temperament, it would be terrible if they got into a fight.
At this point, he had to say something.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Zhao Zihan wink at him, indicating that everything was under control.
The next moment, Zhao Zihan slammed the table and stood up, shouting:
"Wait a minute."
The people around him stopped. Zhao Zihan stared at Lin Xiaofan and sneered:
"County Magistrate Lin, apart from my parents, you are the first person who dares to talk to me like this."
"Today I am being picky. Now you also know that the Lin family and the Xiang family have committed serious crimes. If you don't deal with this matter, I will tell my uncle Zhao Cang. You must also know how upright he is. When the time comes, think about whether you can still keep your official position."
"Also, if you don't agree to this, you won't give me Zhao Zihan face, and you won't give me Zhao family face. When the time comes, you will be the one to look good."
