PFC Chapter 368 Breakup
Chapter 368 Breakup
Hearing this, Lin Xiao slapped the table and stood up, glared at Wang Cheng in front of him, and asked:
"Wang Cheng, is this how you educate the younger members of your family?"
In all the years he has been the leader of the clan, everyone has been polite to him, but he has never been wronged like this.
When Wang Cheng saw this, he quickly stood up with a smile on his face:
"Clan Chief Lin, calm down. Mr. Zhao, this is Lin Xiao, the head of the Lin family. Mr. Lin, this is Zhao Zihan, the son of the Zhao family in the capital."
Hearing this, the anger on Lin Xiao's face disappeared, replaced by a hint of panic.
Wang Cheng would definitely not lie to him about this kind of thing. He couldn't afford to offend anyone from the Zhao family, even if he was a junior.
He never expected that this member of the Zhao family was actually in the Wang family. Moreover, his actions just now offended the other party.
However, he was also a person who had seen a lot of the world, so he quickly adjusted his facial expression and sat down again.
"Mr. Zhao, please forgive me for my blindness to Mount Tai."
"Haha, you are quite good at changing your face."
Zhao Zihan sneered, not saving any face for Lin Xiao.
In response to this, Lin Xiao just laughed twice, and then prepared to talk about giving up the property to the Wang family.
"Clan Chief Wang, Clan Chief Xiang and I thought about it..."
Halfway through his words, Zhao Zihan interrupted again.
"Lin Xiao, I had a drink with the head of the royal family this morning. The head of the royal family said that from now on, the Wang family will follow my lead. Therefore, the Wang family is now my direct family."
"But I'm not interested in the Wang family's restaurant industry, so I would like to exchange all the Wang family's properties for your Lin family's properties of equal value. How about that?"
Zhao Zihan said.
Hearing this, Lin Xiao looked gloomy. The Wang family's restaurant business is only a few days away from bankruptcy. Whoever takes over at this time will be unlucky.
I can't agree to anything about this deal.
But he couldn't offend Zhao Zihan here. Even if the other party is just a child, as long as he has the identity of the Zhao family, he must give him enough face.
"What, you don't give me face?"
Zhao Zihan continued to ask, with a charming and intimidating look.
"Mr. Zhao, the reason I came here this time is actually to say this. Look, it's better to do this. I'll just..."
Lin Xiao wanted to take the opportunity to tell him that the Lin family and Zhao family wanted to give the Wang family property.
And he used this matter to fool him.
"Clan Leader Lin, don't say so many useless things. You have cooperated with the Wang family for so long, what can you do if you change the industry? It won't cost you anything."
Zhao Zihan didn't give Lin Xiao a chance to speak.
Hearing this, Lin Xiao's expression became even gloomier.
"Mr. Zhao, you may not know that the Wang family's current businesses are about to close down. If I exchange them, I can only exchange them for your two grain stores, plus five thousand taels of silver."
He spoke. He had negotiated with the Xiang family to give the two grain stores to the Wang family. As for the five thousand silver taels, just treat it as buying those restaurants.
"Lin Xiao, are you kidding me? There are at least ten restaurants in the Wang family. You just spent 5,000 taels of silver on these two grain shops? To tell you the truth, my pocket money for a year is more than that. .”
Zhao Zihan sneered.
"Mr. Zhao, those restaurants in the Wang family can't make any money at all. I'm just being kind and righteous by giving so much. Why don't you make a price and I'll see if it's suitable."
Lin Xiao said.
He rolled his eyes and thought of a way to get the best of both worlds. Anyway, Zhao Zihan and Wang Chenggang knew each other, so he could definitely get Zhao Zihan to his side and become his partner.
In this way, they can be considered to have the support of the Zhao family.
"It's not much. I need three-quarters of your property, plus seven thousand taels of silver."
Zhao Zihan said.
Hearing this, Lin Xiao's expression changed. Not to mention three-quarters of the property, he would not be able to give up even one-fifth.
He looked at Wang Cheng aside, who didn't say a word and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Mr. Zhao, I cannot agree to your request. That's it for today. I'm sorry. But if you want to cooperate with my Lin family in the future, I welcome you at any time."
Lin Xiao stood up, and before leaving, he didn't forget to win over Zhao Zihan again.
"My request is very simple. Give me three-quarters of the property, seven thousand taels of silver, and I will cooperate with you. The Lin family has a big business, so it shouldn't be short of that, right?"
Zhao Zihan said.
Lin Xiao's footsteps did not stop again. Asking him to hand over these, he would definitely be reluctant to part with them.
The appearance of Zhao Zihan also disrupted his plan.
Originally, he wanted to tell Wang Cheng that he would give him two grain stores, but he didn't say anything in the end.
This also means that Wang Cheng still regards him as his mortal enemy, and there is no room for relaxation between the two.
Now, although the Wang family is weak, it has the support of a member of the Zhao family. Coupled with the evidence in hand, it is enough to wipe out the Lin family.
Although he felt a little panicked, his movements were indeed not chaotic at all.
After leaving the Wang family, he immediately returned to his clan to find Duanmu Liangchuan. At the same time, he also sent someone to find Xiang Zheng, the head of the family.
If this matter is not handled well, the Xiang family will most likely be finished, so Xiang Zheng can be trusted now.
"Brother Duanmu, something happened."
Wang Cheng no longer cared about etiquette and pushed the door open directly.
"The royal family sits down."
Duanmu Liangchuan stood up when he saw this.
"Suddenly, a child from the Zhao family appeared in the Wang family. His name is Zhao Zihan. This child is very arrogant. He asked for three-quarters of my family's property and an additional seven thousand taels of silver. I definitely didn't agree."
"Brother Duanmu also knows the influence of the Zhao family in Qingzhou County. If that child takes the evidence of the Lin family's crimes and goes to the Lin County Magistrate to talk about it, I'm afraid the Lin family will be exterminated!"
The more Wang Cheng said, the more anxious he became. If the Wang family acted immediately, then he really wouldn't even have time to prepare.
For a moment, he regretted not agreeing to Zhao Zihan first, so that he could at least buy some time.
When Duanmu Liangchuan heard this, his brows knitted together.
Since it was risky to deliver news to the Lin family from outside, he didn't know anything about Lin Xiaofan's plan.
He first had to find out whether Zhao Zihan was arranged by Magistrate Lin.
Normally, if he was from the Zhao family, he would definitely believe that he was sent by Magistrate Lin.
After all, County Magistrate Lin had a good relationship with Zhao Shan, and he wanted to destroy the three major families, so it was normal for him to send someone to do it.
But it just so happens that this person is a child.
Would County Magistrate Lin arrange for a child to do such a big thing?
"Clan Chief Lin, are you sure this child is from the Zhao family in the capital?"
Duanmu Liangchuan asked.
"Yes."
"How is he doing?"
"Arrogant and domineering, he looks like a playboy at first glance, and he hasn't seen much of the world."
"You said you would give the Wang family two grain stores, but the Wang family didn't agree?"
"I didn't say anything. I was interrupted by the kid several times in a row."
Lin Xiao answered, and Duanmu Liangchuan also had the answer in his heart.
There won't be that many coincidences in the world.
