As soon as Shangguan Hui opened his mouth, he directly hit the vital points of several people.
In fact, everything about the Xiongling Tribe is good, except for one common problem among ordinary tribes - poverty!
When Shangguan Hui first found this place, everything he brought with him had already been looted by the people here under clever pretexts.
But at the beginning, Shangguan Hui just felt that since she was on someone else's territory, she would inevitably have to make some offerings to them. In addition, it was just some personal belongings, so she really didn't care about it, so she handed it over obediently.
But since these people took her things and wanted to kick them out, she couldn't agree to it.
After hearing what she said, several elder bears immediately blushed.
However, they are all thick-skinned and sinister masters, and most of the things Shangguan Hui brought over back then went into their personal pockets.
Even Xiong Lin was not very clear about this matter.
Now that she has stirred her up, for a moment, I feel like I can’t hold my face anymore. ??
"Where did you bring this? Don't talk nonsense!"
Xiong Er started to feel shameless, but Shangguan Hui was so easy to get rid of.
He took out a list from his clothes, cleared his throat and said.
"Elder Xiong, at 3:00 on March 14th, I received 300 pieces of silver, two pairs of jade bracelets, six pairs of gold and silver jewelry, signed and stamped, oh, there is your fingerprint on it, do you want to let Xiong
Chief Lin, please take a look at it before talking about it?"
Seeing that Shangguan Hui actually produced evidence of what they had collected, the elders finally stopped.
They say they are soft on others. At first, they were blinded by greed, but they did not expect that Shangguan Hui was a difficult character.
"You! Even if we accept it, you gave it to us voluntarily, and now you threaten us with this thing, go back on your word, and act like a villain!"
Xiong Da is worthy of being a great elder for many years, and he is somewhat comfortable in doing things like rake someone down.
But Shangguan Hui did not panic and continued with a faint smile.
"Yes, I did give these things to you voluntarily. However, I'm afraid you don't know that I have exchanged these things with the leader Xiong Lin a long time ago. The two of us have already made a contract.
I took the money and bought this piece of land from your clan. We signed the contract. Now that you have received the money, you still want to drive me away as the landowner. Where in the world can there be such a reason? Otherwise, let's go out and find it.
What do you think of this place?"
Shangguan Hui threw out another contract one after another. It clearly stated how much silver Shangguan Hui spent to buy the courtyard where the Lin family and his son lived.
Moreover, the black and white writing on the paper also bears Xiong Lin’s seal.
Shangguan Hui looked at these people and wanted to speak again He denied it, but he suppressed his smile and looked at the garlic in front of him with cold eyes.
"You don't want to tell me that Patriarch Xiong Lin can't make the decision, do you? I can tell you that you have collected the money and signed the contract. If you regret it again, either give me back the money in full, or
, I will go to the royal court to sue you! I want to see if Lieyun has any royal laws!"
Once her expression became serious, the aura deep in her bones exploded.
In the beginning, a large part of the reason why Empress Shangguan admired her was because she looked more like herself when she was younger.
Now that she is showing off like this, no one dares to do anything wrong for a while.
Step by step towards the elders, Shangguan Hui's eyes turned cold and she looked at those people quietly.
"If you look like this and you dare to use a honey trap, Elder Xiong, do you think the Lin family are pheasants?"
Turning around, he entered the yard.
The remaining people looked at each other, and a few girls gave up.
They have been raised at home, but now they are openly called pheasants. How can they bear it?
Immediately, the woman's complaints and curses were mixed with the reprimands of several elders who could not be serious, ending the forced marriage that would happen every once in a while.
Xiong Lin looked on coldly, feeling very embarrassed.
When they were about to leave, Xiong Lin spoke in a low voice.
"Four elders, since this is the money Ms. Shangguan paid to buy the tribal land, I beg you to return it."
The four people were shocked and their eyes were full of anger.
Unfortunately, Xiong Lin didn't take them seriously at all, and the majority of the younger generation in the tribe supported Xiong Lin.
"Xiong Lin, don't go too far! It's not your turn to cover the sky with one hand in this Xiong Spirit Tribe."
Xiong Da warned in a low voice, but Xiong Lin didn't take it to heart at all. Instead, he folded his arms leisurely and said.
"Okay, then let the entire tribe come here to comment. Those silver coins are enough for us to spend the whole winter safely."
The entire Xiongling tribe is not wealthy, and every winter, at least a few old, weak, sick and disabled people freeze to death.
Xiong Lin hated the greed of several elders. If it weren't for that little money, the Xiong Ling tribe would not have become a vassal of the Xin family.
"You - okay, your wings have become stronger, and you have learned to follow outsiders to bully a few of us. Okay, just wait for me, let's go
!”
Several elders and the girl behind them left in a hurry.
Xiong Lin snorted coldly and gave instructions in a low voice.
"Watch these old foxes and make them spit out those things for me!"
It was a matter of life and death for the entire tribe. How could Xiong Lin be willing to bypass it so easily?
Immediately, someone responded in a low voice and followed him secretly.
Xiong Lin, who was in high spirits just now, looked at the backs of those people and couldn't help but shake his head.
After all, this is the place where he grew up. Even though he didn't have the desire to be the leader of the clan, he didn't want to and watched helplessly as Spirit Bear was destroyed in the greedy hearts of those few people.
When I opened the door and entered the yard, I immediately saw a bright red figure standing under the eaves, looking in the direction of the door.
A simple and honest smile immediately appeared on his handsome face. ??
After the figure saw him, he paused, opened his mouth, and said softly.
"Be careful."
The woman's voice was gentle and gentle, revealing her concern for him.
Xiong Lin nodded hurriedly and wanted to walk to the woman's side, but he still hesitated.
Finally, he stood cautiously three steps away, looking a little at a loss even though he was so big.
"It's okay, they don't dare do anything to me. Besides, they can't beat me."
Xiong Lin was a little proud when he said this. The clan leader must be the strongest and most powerful person in the entire tribe.
He is not only the leader of the tribe, but also the first warrior of the entire tribe.
Hongyu blushed instantly, lowered her head, and looked at the handkerchief tightly knitted in her hand.
In the past, she had many patrons, but none of them were as sincere as the man in front of her, and he was also very cautious in treating her.
Shangguan Hui placed the wild fruit in the living room and turned around to see the innocent and shy atmosphere of the man and woman.
Standing at the door, he couldn't help but joked.
"You are such an idiot. Why don't you call me Qu and let us, Hongyu, cherish you?"
Before he finished speaking, his two heads turned even redder.
Although Xiong Lin could face several aggressive elders without changing his expression, only when facing Hong Yu, he looked like a young man who had just begun to fall in love.
But who would have thought that this man in his early thirties could be an innocent man who has never even held a woman's hand!
"You are making fun of me again. Brother Xiong is not good at talking. You are so stupid. Stop bullying him. If you are so powerful, why don't you go find the young master?" Hongyu couldn't help but speak for her sweetheart. After giving Xiong Lin a gentle look, she walked up to Shangguan Hui and pinched her cheek.
"Your young master has already been in my possession for a long time. If you don't believe me, just ask. I'm not like you. I don't have many opportunities to meet the person I like. If I don't face my love in time,
Sincerely, wouldn’t you regret it to your death?”
Shangguan Hui talked about his secret love without changing his expression, but this time, Hong Yu's face became even redder, but there was a hint of clarity in her eyes.
Shangguan Hui said it right, how many times in this life can a person meet someone who treats him sincerely?
She turned her head and glanced at Xiong Lin, who was also thoughtful. But after all, she was timid, deeply afraid of the other person, and despised her own past.
Shangguan Hui naturally knew Hong Yu's thoughts and sighed secretly in his heart.
As expected, she was a fan of the authorities. Hongyu only thought about the past, but she didn't realize how hot Xiong Lin looked at her.
Recalling when I first arrived here, Xiong Lin was the only one who stepped forward regardless of the situation.
From the subsequent contacts, she could also see that Xiong Lin was different from the people in the tribe.
He was a man of great wisdom and foolishness, and he saw things very clearly.
Although Hong Yu is a jade covered in dust, her heart is more loyal and pure than anyone else.
Such a woman would never let down Xiong Lin's enthusiasm.
It's just that they have to figure these things out themselves, and no matter how much others try to comfort them, there's no way.
Suddenly he remembered the letter he had brought, and without caring about anything else, he greeted Xiong Lin and Hong Yu and walked to the backyard.
The backyard was much quieter than the front yard. The Lin family father and son were sitting on the stone table in the yard, discussing something.
As soon as Shangguan Hui came in, Lin Nansheng immediately greeted her with a bit of guilt in her eyes. Regardless of the presence of others, she pulled Shangguan Hui's sleeve and brought her to him, looking her up and down.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
This time, it was Shangguan Hui's turn to make a big fuss.
It can be seen that you can't talk about people arbitrarily. Feng Shui has changed, but it will be in front of her.
"Next time, don't lie to me again."
Lin Nansheng held her hand, feeling heartbroken.
This girl knew clearly that those people had bad intentions towards her, but she still colluded with Hong Yu and tricked him into sneaking out.
In the past six months, he had been getting along with her day and night, and her intelligence, her agility, and her dedication had already impressed him.
But the past events were like a shadow that made him unconsciously overprotective of Shangguan Hui.
