Sword: Li Yunlong advised me to be civilized

Chapter 215 This design is my masterpiece!

In the afternoon, as the sun set in the west, in the master study on the second floor, the Jin Junmei tea on the coffee table had already gone cold. However, Lin Guoyang showed no sign of distress. Instead, he sat there with his head down, puffing away on his cigarette. He had been sitting there for a long time...

My morning at the consulate was not going well. My original plan was to test the Consul General's attitude and act accordingly, but I didn't expect to be benched for the entire morning and finally be politely escorted out...

When I got home at noon, I found my son-in-law drunk. Shuangshuang told me he'd vomited several times. That wasn't surprising; when a high-ranking official from the Bai family visits, they usually drink to build rapport. But the strange thing was, everyone in the family seemed so secretive...

I heard that the servants were all gathered in one room to rest this morning, and none of them knew anything. Even Zhaohui only showed up briefly before hurriedly running out...

This is so frustrating! The Lin family is in dire straits! But it doesn't matter. With their son-in-law around, these aren't problems. Lin Guoyang is concerned about something else right now, and thinking about it breaks his heart...

Not long after, Lin Chaohui came back happily. Not long after they met, Lin Guoyang immediately erupted like a volcano!

"What? Lin Chaohui, you prodigal son, you gave my brush washer away? Damn it! That's a three-legged green-glazed brush washer from the Ru kiln of the Song Dynasty, a unique national treasure! You..."

Lin Chaohui's face was covered with spit after being scolded, but he didn't dare to talk back. His brother-in-law had said before that Dai Yu Nong was a man who was both a powerful official and a bad official. He had to take money from him, but he also couldn't lose his reputation as an official. So he used Yahui to make money.

The so-called "elegant favors" were a practice popularized during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Directly giving money would inevitably give people a handle, so officials would replace it with cheap items, such as bottles and jars, which were worth very little. Officials would even spend a small amount of money to buy them "in full," and then suddenly discover that among the pile of junk, there was an antique, a priceless treasure...

Even the emperor couldn't find fault with this kind of bargain...

In particular, his brother-in-law said that it would be best to choose something that was presentable in order to stabilize the fishermen. So Lin Zhaohui thought of his father's treasure...

On the other side, Lin Guoyang became even more angry when he saw his son lying like a dead dog.

"Lin Zhaohui, do you know? That brush washer is our family heirloom, meant to be passed down to future generations. I understand you want to befriend Director Dai, but giving him so many things isn't enough. You even have to give away the most valuable one. You..."

"Dad, there's nothing we can do about it! We have to give him a big gift. After all, I brought some people to beat him up!"

"what?"

After a while, Lin Guoyang covered his chest and looked at his son in disbelief.

No, do you know what you did? That guy was the head of the Bai family's secret service! In the past, he was the head of the East Factory, okay! Since Zhenhua arranged this, he must have his reasons. A pen washer in exchange for the acting director's friendship isn't a bad thing...

Soon, Lin Guoyang went completely crazy.

"What? Zhenhua stabbed the acting director? He almost killed him? Holy shit! I was out for a while! What on earth did you guys do? Why did such a big incident happen at home?

What? Not only did the acting director not turn hostile, he was actually willing to fully cooperate with us?

"Huh? You don't know why? No, no, go wake up Zhenhua now, I really don't understand..."

Less than half an hour later, Xu Zhenhua was already sitting on the sofa. He looked quite energetic, though he was still yawning. He had just put a cigarette in his mouth when a delicate hand suddenly appeared before his eyes...

Lin Wanshuang's soft words were heard in my ears.

"My stomach is empty, let's drink some egg custard first..."

Xu Zhenhua didn't refuse. In order to confuse Dai Yu Nong at noon, he also took the risk. Afterwards, he vomited several times in succession. It was this person who took good care of him...

Now, spoonful after spoonful was brought to his mouth. The more Xu Zhenhua looked at his beloved wife, the more he liked her. It was so warm. If it weren't for the two light bulbs present, he would have added some tofu to the egg custard...

After finishing a bowl of hot egg custard, Xu Zhenhua's face also turned rosy...

Lin Guoyang couldn't wait any longer. He had already learned a general idea from his son. He was becoming more and more worried and asked immediately.

"Zhenhua, you're taking a huge risk today. You even used a sword. If the director comes to settle the score later, we'll be in a very passive position..."

Xu Zhenhua lit a cigarette and shrugged slightly.

"Don't worry, old man. Dai Yu Nong won't and wouldn't dare to cause trouble. My approach certainly has risks, but they're not that terrifying. Besides the Security Bureau's mission, I have another purpose, which is to arouse Dai Yu Nong's greed and force him to curb his ambition..."

After some explanation, Lin Guoyang's frown gradually relaxed. Zhenhua was right. Dai Yu Nong was a powerful man. He wouldn't care about ordinary money. But with hundreds of millions of yuan a year, that was a different matter. He would definitely not let it go...

But the problem also arises. This person has power, a ruthless heart and ruthless hands. Faced with such a huge profit, he may lose control and want to swallow it all in one gulp. The best way is to take down the Lin family, or even kill them directly...

The son-in-law's actions were absolutely incredible. That sword strike was a subtle message to Dai Yu Nong that we were also shady people and didn't care about his identity as a member of the Fuxing Society. The photos of the murders and the evidence of his oath were all to make him afraid to act rashly...

The most powerful move was to have Zhaohui return the film negatives of the oath-taking ceremony, but still keep the photos. This not only showed goodwill, but also dispelled the acting director's determination to fight to the death...

Thinking of this, Lin Guoyang couldn't help but applaud secretly. Zhenhua's vision was really unimaginable for ordinary people. At the same time, he began to wonder in his heart and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Zhenhua, I don't understand why you pushed Zhaohui and me to the front? Is it because you said yesterday that your identity as the Lin family's son-in-law should be kept secret for the time being?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhenhua immediately noticed that the old man was feeling a bit guilty. That's right! All the strategies were his, but he had put the key Lin Zu incident and the subsequent conclusion on the old man's head. Then he laughed and asked in return!

"We all know that Dai Yu Nong's personality is suspicious and fickle! Old man, if you were Dai Yu Nong, what would you think if you knew that the entire plan was my doing? And one more condition, I'm also a colonel officer of the Fuxing Society!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Guoyang's head buzzed and his eyes widened. It turned out that his son-in-law was deliberately hiding his abilities.

That's right! The acting director is the head of the Bai family's secret service. He's no ordinary person. If he knew Zhenhua had such scheming and strategy, he wouldn't even willingly cooperate. He'd probably try every possible means to eliminate this potential competitor. Even if he didn't dare to act, he'd be doubly cautious in his interactions with Zhenhua...

But when he thought about the fact that his son-in-law actually asked Zhaohui to meet the acting director face to face, Lin Guoyang couldn't help but feel uneasy again. Of course he understood his son!

"Zhenhua, Zhaohui is definitely no match for Dai Yu Nong. Why did you arrange for him to contact Dai Yu Nong?"

"Haha! Old man, this design is my masterpiece. Do you believe it? From now on, Dai Yunong will obey Brother Zhaohui's orders, and the eldest son of the Lin family will become the only tycoon in Shanghai!"

"what?"
