Although Annan Town is naturally less prosperous than the county town, although there are sparrows, it still has all the internal organs and everything it should have.
Huang Yulou is one of the best restaurants in town, and it is said that a basket of steamed buns there costs hundreds of cents.
No matter how expensive it is, it doesn't hurt the local poor, which is really gratifying.
At this time, there are all kinds of delicacies on display on the large round table in the private room. At first glance, they are all delicacies, and I am afraid that I can't even get them for dozens of taels of silver.
There were five people sitting at the table, men, women, old and young. They were all dressed neatly and decently, and it was obvious that they were of extraordinary wealth.
But at this moment, everyone had a hint of worry in their eyebrows.
"Let's talk about it. The five of us have worked together for more than ten years. We all know the basics. We must come up with a charter for how to deal with it in the future."
An old man in green shirt sitting near the door picked up the tea cup, took a sip and said softly.
His name is Wei Liang, and he used to be the steward of the Lin's Chamber of Commerce in the town. Now that all the Lin family's children have left, he has also been entrusted with the important task of serving as the chief steward of the chamber of commerce.
Everyone present here is all the local person in charge of Lin's industry in Annan Town.
In charge of restaurants, casinos, mines, etc.
Some time ago, the Lin family only had time to explain the general matters before hurriedly retreating. A few days later, news of the Lin family's rebellion spread.
If it weren't for the rumor that the Lin family killed three Zhou Shengjun commanders along the way and almost captured Lin Yucheng in one go, the Lin family's property in the town would have been taken away long ago.
But despite this, after these days, Wei Liang and others also had some thoughts in their hearts, which is why they have discussed it and gathered here.
"Articles? What else can we have on our minds when we are all gathered here? Stop pretending and making people laugh.
You might as well tell me directly who you are looking for as your next buyer, what the conditions are like, how good or bad they are, or you have an idea in mind."
The speaker to Wei Liang's left was a beautiful young woman in her thirties named Mei Gu, whose real name is unknown.
His skin is fair and his eyes are watery. When he talks, his eyes will bend unconsciously, and the corners of his mouth will rise, showing his natural charm.
Just by watching him speak, everyone here felt their hearts beating faster and subconsciously pulled at the hem of their clothes to hide his ugly appearance.
However, after he finished speaking, no one present immediately responded.
"From what you tell me, Aunt Mei, have you found a good partner? Have you fallen in love with the Ma family or the Feng family?"
Wei Liang raised his eyebrows and asked as if he was joking.
"But I am afraid that it is the Ma family and the Feng family. Now I am afraid that I don't dare to stroke the Lin family's tiger beard. After all, there are three commanders of Zhou Shengjun who died in the hands of the Lin family leader..."
He instantly guessed the two more powerful families in Annan Town. As he spoke, he observed Gu Mei's expression.
"Lin? Haha, now he is just a lost dog. I heard that he has fled back to the mountains. How can he dare to wander out?
As for what you said about killing the three governors, whether the actual results are true or false, is it an exaggeration? Even if it is true, I'm afraid Lin will not be in a better place now, otherwise Lin Yucheng would have been named Lin."
Mei Gu chuckled, playing with a jade the size of a pigeon egg in her hand, looking like she had seen through everything.
Everyone was a little hesitant.
"A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Now it is definitely impossible for Lin to interfere in Annan's business.
But we can sell some properties first, wear Lin's tiger skin, sell it at a good price, and make a fortune from it, so we don't need to take such risks."
The one who spoke was the youngest among them. He was tall and had piercing eyes. His name was Ding Nan.
His family is in charge of the mining business, and he used to practice martial arts with a member of the Lin family, so he has some affection for him, so he doesn't want to do anything too shameful.
"Just a lump sum of hard-earned money? Xiao Nannan, if your father were here, he would be so angry that he would slap you.
We, a group of people, have worked hard and worked hard for Lin's property for more than ten years. Can others understand all of this?
They are just like our children, watching them grow up little by little. Now that the biological parents are afraid of trouble and run away, is it possible that we, the godfathers and stepmothers, do not have the right to take care of our own children?"
Mei Gu smiled brightly and then said matter-of-factly.
Ding Nan's face turned red when he said this, and he snorted and tilted his head.
The audience was silent again. Everyone had different expressions on their faces, and it was hard to tell what they were thinking.
"Everyone, the world is constantly changing. Plagues and banditry may happen at any time, and human life is like a piece of grass. It is not an exaggeration to say that if we finish this vote, we will move to the county government and buy a house.
In the courtyard, two concubines gathered together,
Isn't it better to live a life of drinking tea and listening to music in the morning, storytelling in a teahouse in the afternoon, and having a drink with a few friends in the evening, without having to worry about war and plague, than spending a lifetime busy in a remote and remote place like Annan?"
Mei Gu tilted her head slightly and asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"As for worrying about Mrs. Lin, is it possible that Mrs. Lin still dares to come to the county government to look for us?
You must know that based on the crimes they committed, it is not an exaggeration to say that they went to the county government to light lanterns in the latrine, so what should they worry about?
Besides, even if we are found, it doesn’t matter. We can just pay you a little money. Since we have worked hard over the years without any merit, the most we can do is to be scolded.”
When she saw people's intentions, she struck while the iron was hot.
Everyone made slight eye contact and quickly came up with an idea.
Among them, Wei Liang is undoubtedly the leader.
He pondered: "Mei Mei has said so much and is willing to waste such words. She must have found a big benefactor. Why don't you just tell me and listen to her?"
Mei Gu chuckled, "As expected of Mr. Wei, the ginger is still hotter than the old. I do have a friend who is very powerful and is somewhat interested in Lin's property in Annan. Please ask me to greet you all. I guarantee that the price will be reasonable.
."
After saying that, he took out a brochure bag from his arms, took out four pieces of white paper, and distributed them to everyone.
For a moment, a look of disbelief flashed across everyone's faces, and then their eyes were filled with joy.
"Is this... really possible?"
Even Ding Nan, who didn't want to get involved in this matter, couldn't help but feel dry, licked his lips, and asked with some expectation and some doubt.
"Xiao Nannan, when has my sister ever lied to you?" Mei Gu smiled coquettishly.
"Besides, I have also obtained a benefit for everyone. If someone from the Lin family really comes to visit recently, my eldest brother will take action and have a good talk with them. All we need is a signature and a deposit, and then... I'll see you at the county government.
"
The last few words undoubtedly hit everyone's heart.
Several people looked at each other, and Wei Liang still spoke:
"It doesn't matter, Mrs. Lin has not returned for a long time now. With our own strength, we are really unable to protect such a large property, so we have no choice but to do this."
After saying that, everyone took a deep breath and shook their heads as if relieved.
"But there is Miss Lao Mei." Wei Liang and others handed over one after another.
Mei Gu smiled and shook her head, holding up the wine cup in her beautiful hand.
"Here's to our beautiful name, drink victoriously."
After that, he drank it all at once, and the transparent liquid leaked from the corners of his mouth, flowed through his fair and slender neck, and finally fell into the deep snow-white ravine.
"Drink victory!"
At this time, at the gate of Annan Town, two young people who were obviously from out of town blended into the crowd and stepped into the town together.
One has a tall and straight figure, yellowish skin, and an ordinary appearance; the other is tall, with a strong back and waist, a handsome face, and a pair of eye-catching tiger eyes.
The two walked along the main business road in the town for a while, looking at the surrounding buildings, and finally entered a pretty good-looking inn called Tongle.
Lin Mo and Lin Junyang stored their belongings and took a comfortable hot bath before stepping out of the inn together, ready to inquire about the Lin family's property in the town.
Compared with Lin Yu County, no, it is not as good as Lin Yi Township, but it is still prosperous, with many people coming and going, and the temperament is mostly high-spirited and very motivated.
