Zheng Chenggong didn't expect that Lin Chong could be so calm at such a young age. In comparison, he seemed a little inferior and more impatient.
Zheng Chenggong thought of this and suppressed the sudden anxiety that surged in his heart. Anyway, he was already in Nanjing. When would it be impossible to kill Lin Chong, a mere Lin Chong?
Could I still be afraid of him being a useless kid with nothing? With a gentle smile on his face, Zheng Chenggong thanked Lin Chong: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I would like to thank Your Majesty for your great kindness on behalf of my brothers."
After the banquet, the stone weighing on Lin Chong's heart did not lighten up. Not only that, he was also very worried because of the clear attitude shown by Emperor Chongzhen at the banquet.
He had imagined the meeting between the two many times before, and most of them thought that no matter what, he was kind to Emperor Chongzhen, and even if the other party had thoughts about him in his heart, he would not say it on the surface.
Unexpectedly, people directly and openly described him as a mangy dog occupying a magpie's nest. Lin Chong almost jumped up and questioned him. When I helped you rescue the siege, why didn't you call me a dog? Now
If you want to return to your position, you will feel that others have ulterior motives.
Fortunately, he was under control. He didn't expect that his endurance would improve so much in just two years! For such a level of verbal insult, he could suppress the anger of wanting to hit someone. He wanted to
Return to the throne and discuss it with yourself, and you may not make it difficult for him. But since he has this attitude, don't blame him for extorting a lot of money. Not only will he blackmail him, but he will also leave a large sum for him.
There’s a gift!
Jonathan didn't remember how much he drank last night. He only knew that he had a severe headache when he woke up the next morning. The tables, chairs, dishes, and chopsticks that he hadn't even had time to clear away were still in their original positions. He was obviously the only one there.
Although I don't know why, he still placed two wine glasses.
After a quick glance, his brain realized something was wrong. He rubbed his eyes and looked again. The person sitting on the chair with a cynical smile and looking towards him with a smirk was not him.
Who else could that damn boy Lin Chong be?
"You...! You, you, you!" He stuttered.
"What are you doing? What time is it? If you don't get up yet, are you waiting for me to deduct your salary?" Lin Chong poured himself a glass of wine and took a small sip. It tasted pretty good.
"Tch, you can deduct whatever you want. It's not much money anyway. The subsidy you give me at one time is more than the salary I get in a year." Jonathan snorted, sat up and put on a piece of clothing.
"You mean the money I gave you is too much, right? That's easy to say, the money I'll give you will be halved from tomorrow." Lin Chong finished the glass and poured himself another glass.
"You should drink less. You should have drank less last night. Why did you suddenly have time to come to my place? Did Zheng Chenggong send you away?"
Lin Chong sneered: "You also said that you want to send me away. Maybe they will send me away in the end. People in ancient times said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Now it seems that this is really true. Think about Mr. Wang's role in his
It’s really not easy to stay with me for so many years!”
After Jonathan got up, he wiped his face with his hands and rinsed his mouth. Then he sat next to Lin Chong. When he heard what he said, he couldn't help but punch him on the shoulder: "What the hell happened to you kid today?"
Son? Why do you suddenly have so many emotions? Didn’t you have quite confidence in the emperor before? Did that kid say something to you last night? "
"It doesn't matter what you say, I'm just afraid of what he plans to do next." Lin Chong also poured a glass of wine for Jonathan: "Come on, it's been a long time since we sat down and had a drink together."
As soon as he said this, Jonathan suddenly remembered: "Didn't you tell me before that you wanted to open a hot pot restaurant? At that time, we were very busy in Beijing and couldn't think about these messy things. Now
Now that the chaos in Nanjing has subsided, it is time to take a good rest, so you might as well tell me about your previous idea."
Lin Chong rubbed his chin and recalled carefully: "Hot pot, I almost forgot about it if you didn't mention it. I did think about opening a hot pot restaurant before, but there were too many things and I kept pushing them. I forgot about them after pushing them.
It’s to the back of the forehead.”
"No matter what Zheng Chenggong wants to do, as long as we have money in our hands, we are not afraid of him at all. I think the hot pot restaurant you mentioned before is quite reliable. Why don't we give it a try and maybe we can make a fortune?"
One stroke."
"Okay, Old Qiao, I didn't see that you are still a money addict!" Lin Chong teased Jonathan.
"Don't you Chinese often say that a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way? There's nothing wrong with me doing this, right? At this level, it's far worse than what I used to do. I think about what I loved most back then.
There are only three."
"Bills, women and hot pot?" Lin Chong guessed.
Jonathan shook his finger: "Nonono, those are too vulgar. What I love most are guns, wine, and endless dollars. When I didn't meet you before, I actually didn't eat much Chinese food.
I just heard other people say that the food is delicious. I am running around here and there every day, so how can I have time to enjoy it?"
"Where did you spend all the money you made?" Lin Chong was curious. According to the book, people like them would gamble heavily after making money. Occasionally they would make a lot of money, but most of the time
They all lose everything.
Jonathan despised his thoughts without exception: "What kind of books do you read every day? How can you have so much time to gamble all day long? Even gambling is just a small gamble. Now think about it, I worked hard to earn so much
It’s so much money, it’s probably more dollars than I can spend in my lifetime, and I don’t know who the money went to in the end.”
"Do you have a family?" Lin Zhan suddenly realized that Jonathan had never mentioned this question to him.
"Even if there is, my parents died very early. People like us who were born in the slums will die in the garbage dump if we don't fight hard. I used to have a younger sister, but during a bombing, we
She got separated, and I never saw her again."
Lin Chong patted him on the shoulder: "Maybe with luck, they will find your sister and leave your money to her, which means you are taking care of her for your parents."
