The Rough Hunter's Little Lucky Wife-Chapter 329 - Transition

329 Transition

“Forget it, forget it. It’s all speculation. Don’t take it to heart. Just take it as I’m talking nonsense.”

Madam Qin also regretted speaking so quickly just now.

Jiaojiao was still pregnant. If her words caused her to be in a bad mood and affect her appetite, then she would not be able to forgive herself.

“Madam Qin, it’s fine.” Yue Jiaojiao recalled Li Xiangjun’s reaction. “Even if that thing was given to her by someone else, I don’t think Xiangjun is in the mood to get married.”

The Li family had to sell off their property and move to Huai County.

Even in the modern world, a decision to move to a different town would require thorough consideration and preparation.

The house in Huai County had been rented by Li Xiangjun a few days ago.

If what Madam Qin said was true and Li Xiangjun was prepared to bring her family to Jiangnan, she would no longer be able to be the manager.

However, she did not reveal any intention of leaving the shop just now.

“Let’s not think about it right now.” Madam Qin placed the bowl and chopsticks on the table onto the tray. “Didn’t Doctor Sun say to be more at ease recently? For the baby. If you’re bored, you can go and visit the kids. Li Miao’s babies are a month old now!”

Even Madam Qin went over to take a look when she had nothing to do.

“It’s okay. I want to write a letter to Zhao Zhan first. Madam Qin, when you go to town tomorrow, help me send it to the relay station.”

Zhao Zhan had sent back three letters from Bei City.

The letter described his relationship with the Zhang family in detail.

If it wasn’t for the fact that she was pregnant now and Shang was eyeing her covetously from the side, Yue Jiaojiao would definitely have rushed to Bei City with Madam Qin and Doctor Sun.

Far away in the north of the city, Zhao Zhan sneezed heavily.

“According to the customs here, your wife must have missed you since you sneezed, right?”

Zhao Zhan’s beard was not shaved, and it covered his face tightly.

“Zhao Zhan, if you didn’t take out the official seal, I wouldn’t have recognized you.”

“With your current appearance, you won’t be recognized by anyone if you mix in with my team.”

Zhao Zhan was wearing Wagler’s clothes.

Fang Tianliu was the same as him.

“Wagler, did you bring the thing?”

“Ever since you were separated from me, I haven’t met any bad people along the way.”

After saying that, Wagler waved his hand.

The attendant immediately opened the boxes piled in the room. “Zhao Zhan, please inspect them well and see if these goods are in good condition.”

Fang Tianliu stood up and went to check.

Wagler waited for him to finish examining before speaking.

“I’ve completed the deal with the Lin family. I’ll be leaving Bei City tomorrow.

“I, Wagler, am a businessman after all. I don’t care about friendship, but only about profit. No matter what kind of grudge you have against the Lin family, I will do business with whoever has the last laugh.”

Zhao Zhan picked up his wine bowl.

Wagler raised his bowl and clinked it with his. “I hope everything goes well for the both of you!”

Fang Tianliu had already finished counting the goods and handed over the silver.

Wagler and Zhao Zhan separated.

Fang Tianliu stood in front of the window, looking at the people coming and going on the street, “The people from the Zhang family have arrived. I have already followed your plan and started to set it up five days in advance.

“Other than the goods we’ve been transporting these past few days, we’ll be able to complete our plan with the goods that Wagler has brought over.”

The Zhang family had been rooted in Bei City for many years, and their roots were even deeper than the Lin family.

These days, Zhao Zhan had sent the Zhang family out to help gather information.

The local tyrant would not easily attract the Lin family’s attention when he understood the situation.

“A year and a half ago, a new County Magistrate had come to Bei City.

“Lin Chenzhi had gotten into an argument with someone at the academy, which eventually turned into a fight. He had led his servants to break one of the man’s legs.

“Even after his broken bones recovered, it was difficult for him to walk back to normal. The one who would be crippled from now on was the only son of this magistrate.

“The County Magistrate was furious. The Lin family, who knew the truth, went everywhere to find ways to plead for mercy, and for this, they did not hesitate to give up all the Lin family’s wealth.

“The Lin family was on the verge of decline, but a few months later, the tables turned. They suddenly had a large sum of silver and started their business again.

“Especially after the Lin family returned from Huai County, the restaurant he opened became a place that the people of Bei City flocked to.

“They were worried that the County Magistrate would put pressure on them again, so the Lin family took out thirty percent of the profits of the restaurant and gave it to him.”

Zhao Zhan’s fingers tapped rhythmically on the table.

In order to survive, the Lin family had asked for his lover’s dowry.

There was one thing that he couldn’t think too much about.

The Yue family occupied Jiangnan, and their power was many times stronger than the Lin family.

After marrying into the Yue family and marrying his lover, according to her personality, she would definitely not leave the Lin family in the lurch after knowing that they were in trouble.

However, the Lin family did not care. They would rather find a criminal to murder their lover and then steal the dowry to resolve their issue.

Why did the Lin family have the intention to kill his lover?

“Zhao Zhan? Zhao Zhan!”

Zhao Zhan returned to his senses, “What’s wrong?”

“Are we going to start our plan tomorrow?”

Fang Tianliu rubbed his hands together, eager for some action.

He had been cooped up in Bei City for too long. If he didn’t go out and move around, he would probably suffocate to death.

Zhao Zhan’s eyes were sharp. “Tomorrow.”

The city had suddenly become lively.

An arena was set up in the middle of the street.

In front of the ring, there were two large wheels that were as tall as a person.

“Did you hear? There’s a foreign businessman who wants to do business in Bei City. These few “Did you see that wheel? You just have to spin it and you’ll get something.”

“Isn’t the Lin family’s restaurant selling tofu and pickled fish very well now? The Lin family’s tofu is five silver a plate, but as long as we’re there tomorrow, even the unluckiest one will be able to get a piece of tofu.”

“Don’t you want to try that thing?”

The people of Bei City were all discussing the recent major event that had happened in the middle of the street.

“Speaking of which, we have to thank that Luo guy,” Fang Tianliu jabbered on.

“This guy has been hustling around Bei City during this time. Thanks to him, the people in Bei City now think that tofu and pickled fish are precious things.

“What we’re going to do tomorrow is really step on the Lin family’s face to stir up trouble.”

Fang Tianliu’s face was filled with excitement.

The men they had sent out had found out that the Lin family had been in a ruckus for the past few days, and Lin Chenzhi had lost his temper in the restaurant countless times.

However, what they were doing was backed by the Zhang family and by the westerners. Even if Lin Chenzhi wanted to make a move, he could only watch helplessly in anger because he had the past mistake of offending the County Magistrate.
