Chapter 363 2 Destroy the Barbarians
Degao Town, Lin Mansion
The spring breeze brings a bit of warmth, and the flowers bloom in the house.
Heavy steps sounded outside the house, and the two teams were practicing here. The armor and weapons they wore were all made from their own blacksmith shop and were made of steel.
Coupled with the continuous crossbow, this escort is enough to deal with four or five times the number of enemies.
Moreover, they all have the establishment of city guards, but they usually practice around here.
"Brother Lin, have you heard? Jianbai defeated the barbarians in one battle and killed five thousand enemies."
Zhao Shan pushed open the door and came to announce the good news.
The family had just received the news that Jian Bai led more than 2,000 people deep into the barbarian territory, made a sneak attack at night, and defeated a barbarian tribe in one battle. The leader of the tribe was also beheaded by him.
"Not only that, Jian Bai pretended to return to the city, killed a carbine, defeated a tribe, and killed four thousand enemies."
Lin Xiaofan picked up the bamboo slip in his hand and handed it to Zhao Shan.
In the past month, Jian Bai has written three letters to him in succession.
The first letter is about his decision to go on an expedition, the second letter is about defeating the barbarians in a battle, and the third letter is about this one in his hand.
These days, perhaps because he started practicing martial arts, Lin Xiaofan's body looks stronger and his skin is not as sickly white as before.
"True or false? This kid Jian Bai has grown up."
Zhao Shan took the bamboo slips and glanced at them. Unexpectedly, Jian Bai has grown so much in just a few months.
If he could wipe out all the barbarians, it would be another great achievement.
Moreover, Yantian County had little information, and their family had no spies. It's hard to say, Jian Bai has already made great achievements now, but he hasn't had time to send the message back yet.
"Miss Zhao Shan, I just have something to show you."
Lin Xiaofan said, taking out a piece of soap.
Over the past few days, Li Xiaoqian has gradually perfected the method of making soap, and it is now ready for mass production.
He also wants to try selling some to see how it goes.
"This is called soap. You can use it when taking a bath. It can make the washing cleaner and it also has a fragrance."
Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth to explain.
Although soap is not as influential as table salt, it can still make a lot of money. If you sell it by yourself, you may be targeted by someone who is interested.
Although it will cost some benefits to use the Zhao family as a shield, it can reduce the risk.
Hearing this, Zhao Shan opened the wooden box, took out the soap inside, sniffed it with her nose, and asked with some joy:
"After washing with this, will your body still have this fragrance?"
"indeed."
Lin Xiaofan nodded slightly.
"If it is for sale, although it is not as popular as table salt, there will definitely be many people rushing to buy it."
Zhao Shan immediately discovered the business opportunity.
Many brothels and ladies would definitely be willing to buy this.
"Then let me talk to the family first."
Zhao Shan put away the soap in her hand, looked at Lin Xiaofan's house, and joked:
"County Magistrate Lin, you live a happy life as a magistrate. You don't have to go to the Yamen usually, so you just rest here."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaofan took a bite of the dessert with a face full of enjoyment and said:
"In the past half month, nothing happened in the city. Anyway, I am idle in the Yamen, so I can't relax at home. Besides, it's only a few steps away. If something happens, just ask the Yamen to call me over."
Nowadays, his people are everywhere, whether in the yamen or the city guards. Even if there are a few spies from the city's families, they can't stir up any trouble.
As for the people in the city, after seeing his method of handling cases, they were very wise and no one caused trouble again.
So his life gradually became more leisurely. Now I just read books and practice martial arts every day.
"I have one more thing to come to you about. Lin Yu and Xiang Yan are getting married in ten days. It's time for you to close the net on the major families in the city."
Zhao Shan said.
"So fast."
Lin Xiaofan started doing it all at once.
These days, Zuixianlou's business is getting more and more popular, and Lin Xiaofan has opened two more restaurants. All of a sudden, business in various industries of the Wang family was bleak.
Wang Cheng may have been anxious, as he often went to Lin's house in the past few days, but it could be seen from Wang Cheng's face that the two families were very unhappy.
This time, Xiang Yan, who was originally going to be betrothed to the Wang family, was suddenly crossed by the Lin family, which might become the trigger for the whole thing.
The Wang family has done many sinful things over the years, and they have a large family to support, so they cannot just sit back and wait for death.
Next, either take action against the Lin family or Lin Xiaofan.
However, there is a city guard in the inner city who is constantly moving around and practicing, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell that they belong to Lin Xiaofan.
As long as Wang Cheng is not stupid, he should not have trouble with Lin Xiaofan.
Even if he really wants to take action, in terms of background, he has the support of the Zhao family and is almost invincible in Qingzhou County.
In terms of strength, there were forty guards in his house, two to three hundred people outside the house, plus Chen Xue, Tian Meng, Xiaoxuan and other masters, so the other side couldn't do anything to him.
When the dogs of the Wang family and the Lin family bite dogs, he will sit on the sidelines and watch the tigers fight.
Now, perhaps because of Duanmu Liangchuan, the Lin family is getting closer and closer to him, as if they regard him as a grasshopper on the same line.
Whenever I earn any money, I share some of it with him. If something happens, he will be notified in advance.
The Wang family doesn't move much these days, they just go to the Lin family for a walk from time to time.
While he was thinking, a slave walked in:
"Sir, Lin Xiao from the Lin family came to visit and brought a lot of gold and silver jewelry."
"Bring him here."
Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth, and Zhao Shan wisely walked away and hid in the next room.
She has the identity of the Zhao family. If Lin Xiao sees her, he will inevitably become suspicious.
"Magistrate Lin."
Lin Xiao showed a smooth smile and stepped into the house.
"Clan Chief Lin, please take a seat quickly?"
Lin Xiaofan stood up and made a gesture of invitation.
Over the past few days, the two have gradually become familiar with each other.
"County Magistrate Lin, you do it first."
Lin Xiao walked closer and said.
When Lin Xiaofan heard this, he was not polite, sat down directly, and asked:
"Clan Leader Lin, why are you free to come to my place today?"
"Magistrate Lin, to tell you the truth, I have arranged a wedding for Quan Zi in the past few days. The wedding will be in ten days, and I hope that Magistrate Lin will come to attend."
Lin Xiao opened his mouth and handed over a red invitation.
Lin Xiaofan took the invitation, glanced at it, put it away, and said:
"As Lin Yu is a member of my yamen, I will naturally go to his marriage. Chief Lin, if this is the only thing that matters, then you can take those gold and silver jewelry away. As the county magistrate, I can't take anything away from you." money."
Naturally, he wanted to keep the money that was given to him for free. Saying this just meant that Lin Xiao would stop talking nonsense and get down to business.
"Haha, then I'll thank Magistrate Lin on behalf of Yu'er. I want to set the wedding venue at Zuixian Tower. This money is just a deposit. There will be more after the event is completed."
After saying that, Lin Xiao's face showed a bit of bitterness and he said:
"Magistrate Lin, to be honest, every family in our Degao Town has its own industry. And the Wang family's industry is the restaurant."
