Lin Le met Ling Yue at the stairs on the second floor and asked in a low voice: "I heard they say you saved someone and helped him into your boudoir?"
Ling Yue nodded: "Yes!"
"Don't you want to explain to me?" Lin Le frowned slightly.
Maybe it was because of his attitude of speaking that made Ling Yue very uncomfortable. Ling Yue frowned and said in a deep voice: "I am the senior sister of the Moon Worship Sect, and the temporary leader of our Moon Worship Sect. I don't need to explain anything to anyone!"
Lin Le looked at Ling Yue who was frowning and talking, and knew that she had a stubborn temper again, so she couldn't help but cover her forehead with her hands.
Seeing that Lin Le did not dare to refute, Ling Yue then proudly held her head up and walked towards the kitchen downstairs like a victorious peacock.
Although Lin Le was a little angry, she was still amused by Ling Yue's attitude. This is a naughty little wild cat!
At this time, a guard of Lingyue slipped over quietly. Seeing that Lingyue was not here, he saluted Lin Le and whispered: "Senior Brother, this is the second time that the eldest sister has saved that stinky scholar. She had saved him before the last sale. I vaguely heard that guy was named Cao Anmin, who seemed to be a direct descendant of the Cao family!"
Lin Le nodded, Cao Anmin? I have heard that he is the poor man who wants to be a legitimate son! I heard that his father Cao De has been under house arrest, but I didn’t expect that he was so dishonest. Not only did he not hide in his home, he also ran to Qiao County. He really didn’t know how to live or die!
Lin Le took out a small inlay of gold from his purse, stuffed it to the guard, and whispered: "Thank you, brother!"
The guard did not receive the gold, but whispered: "Senior Brother, you are insulting me! The reason why I report to you about the news is just for the future of our Moon Worship Sect! Because I think that only when you are the leader, we Moon Worship Sect will have hope! I, Hu Han, joined the Moon Worship Sect not to make a fortune, but for the faith in my heart!"
Lin Le was very touched. He joined the Moon Worshiping Sect because he had no food and clothing. However, he did not expect that there were actually crazy believers in the sect besides Ling Yue. Just as he was about to say something encouraged, Hu Han took the gold from him and said with a smile: "Faith is the most important thing in my Hu Han's heart, but faith cannot be used as food. Recently, the streets are not peaceful, and the passenger flow has been severely reduced. I heard that brothels are discounted and promotions... Thank you, senior brother!"
Lin Leran is silence...
Cao Anmin felt a little wet on his face. He opened his eyes with great effort and happened to see Ling Yue sitting opposite him.
"Girl, you saved me again?" Cao Anmin asked in surprise: "No wonder I said when I burned incense and divination last year, I said that I would have a beautiful woman to help this year, and it really came true to the girl! It really has a destiny in the dark!"
Ling Yue felt a little funny, "I just saw you lying on the ground like a mangy dog in the alley. I was curious for a moment, so I let the guards save you! In fact, you don't have to be too grateful, even a puppy, I will save you!"
Cao Anmin smiled awkwardly and looked at his left and right like a concealer. He saw that he was in a woman's boudoir, and the surroundings were very elegantly decorated. Several beautifully shaped bronze ware were placed in the room. Not to mention anything else, this family should not be too short of money.
This time Ling Yue did not wear a veil, so she showed her peerless beauty. Cao Anmin saw it and secretly swallowed his saliva. He smiled evilly and whispered: "Girl, I found that my clothes have been changed by you, and the wounds have been applied to you, which is very cool. You have looked at me all over, you have to be responsible for me! Or, can you marry me?"
Ling Yue almost burst into laughter. She couldn't help but cough twice, trying to suppress the smile in her heart, and shouted loudly: "Ma Wu, Ma Wu?!"
Hearing her shouts, a middle-aged aunt with a fleshy face and a bucket waist ran in. Following her steps, she heard the sound of dongdong and dongdong, and the entire floor shaking.
When she ran to Cao Anmin, Cao Anmin felt a darkness in front of her, as if a flesh wall suddenly erected, and a bad sign suddenly flashed in Cao Anmin's heart.
Ling Yue smiled and said, "Ma Wu, then you helped the young man wipe his body and applied the wound medicine. People feel shy and ask you to take responsibility! He just said that he wants to marry you!"
When Wu Ma heard this, her two big hands like cushions suddenly covered her face, her nostrils trembled excitedly, and her dark nose was rolled shyly, and she heard her voice say: "I am just single now, how could the young master make this request so suddenly? It's such a fateful enemy! Well, I'll just let it go!"
As she spoke, a strong smell of garlic came to her face. Cao Anmin felt disgusted and quickly covered his mouth, arched his body and wanted to find a basin to vomit.
Ling Yue smiled and said, "Mama Wu, this Mr. Cao did not object, which means he is very willing! Although I can't live without you, since that's the case, I can't break up! You can go to the cabinet to pay some money and prepare to be the bride!"
As soon as this said, Cao Anmin immediately held back the vomiting sensation, stretched out his Adam's apple, and swallowed it again.
Ling Yue also felt a urge to vomit, but Cao Anmin opened his mouth with difficulty and said to Wu Ma: "Auntie, I just made a joke just now, so aunt doesn't have to care at all! My head is so dizzy, so dizzy..."
Cao Anmin swayed down with his head in his arms. Wu Ma smiled at Lingshan and said loudly: "Miss, Mr. Cao is dizzy. Do you want me to give him artificial respiration? It's just my reputation... Alas! After all, this is a life!"
Speaking of this, Wu Ma wanted to step forward, but Cao Anmin suddenly sat up and scratched her head: "What's wrong with me just now? Alas, I recently went to Heifeng Village to eliminate the bandits, and my body was too weak!"
Wu Ma sighed softly, feeling very regretful. She turned around and left soon, and the floor was inevitably trembling again.
Cao Anmin wiped the sweat off his head and looked at Ling Yue with a smile on his face. He knew that his trick could not be hidden, so he simply laughed.
Don’t say that laughter is the best weapon to eliminate barriers. Ling Yue was just a little interested in him, but she didn’t expect to talk too much, but found that the two of them had some common topics, and the more they talked, the happier they became.
Unlike Lingyue, Cao Anmin is a veteran of flowers. When he saw Lingyue, he flattered himself, which made Lingyue laugh from time to time. Most of the chat was over, and it was not until Wu Ma sent someone to deliver the meal that Lingyue and Cao Anmin felt hungry.
Ling Yue smiled and said to Cao Anmin, "Young Master, it's getting late, so you should go back home early to rest. It's a bit inconvenient for me. If you have time tomorrow, you'll invite me to visit us. The little girl is honored!"
With the beauty in front of him, Cao Anmin naturally nodded repeatedly. Days passed day by day, and more than ten days later, Cao Anmin had become a regular visitor to Lingyue Mansion. After being in contact for a long time, Lingyue even had the idea of introducing Cao Anmin to join the church. If even the backbone of Qiao County, the direct descendants of the Cao family, join the Holy Sect, it means that the revival of the Moon Worshiping Sect is just around the corner!
In fact, it is very strange between people. Lin Le’s thoughts about Ling Yue are well known to everyone. Ling Yue also has a slight affection for Lin Le, but the window paper cannot be broken, and the relationship between the two is always inseparable. Everyone knows Cao Anmin’s thief heart, and Ling Yue also knows it. However, after getting along for a long time, the two have such a little ambiguous. Perhaps it is because even though Ling Yue has experienced the world, she is still a girl waiting to marry in the boudoir. She is still a little bit happy about someone who is obsessed with her and likes her.
Lin Le didn't have much affection for Cao Anmin, but he was busy with another major event recently and didn't care about him for the time being. This major event is related to the prosperity of the Moon Worshiping Sect, that is - selling private salt!
After Wen Sheng and Death, a temporary fault occurred in the private salt sales network near Qiao County. Lin Le keenly realized this and found that this was a great opportunity to accumulate wealth and expand his strength. Although he had just entered this trip and had too many levels to be opened and the cost was slightly expensive, the rising market now made Lin Le make a big profit. Now it is just a small business, but in the past ten days, Lin Le made more money than the pledge sales party. In addition to submitting the public treasury of the Moon-World Sect, the rest was distributed to the brothers in the sect, which received everyone's heartfelt support and strong support!
To do it, you must become bigger and stronger. Lin Le is very willing to monopolize the market of the entire Qiao County. However, after this period of investigation, he found that the entire Qiao County has several strong strengths, which is really not to be underestimated. One of them is the official force of Qiao County represented by the county magistrate Liu Quan and the county magistrate Yuan Ping, the other is the private force of Qiao County represented by Cao family and Heifengzhai Dulang, and the other is the remnant force left by Wen Sheng, which is also the focus of Lin Le's current annexation and integration. Even if Wen Sheng can gain a firm foothold in this Qiao County, the private salt market of Qiao County will be in a three-legged position.
At this time, the county magistrate Liu Quan and county magistrate Yuan Ping also discovered that the Cao family shop was involved in selling private salt. Yuan Ping quietly persuaded Liu Quan: "Sir, Cao Song of the Cao family was once a high-ranking official in the court and had great potential strength; Cao Cao also served as the prime minister of Jinan, and his official voice was very good. The crackdown on lewd sacrifices made him gain a lot of reputation. We have made a lot of money, so why bother with them to fight for both sides?! It's better to destroy the small force of Lin Le that suddenly emerged!"
Liu Quan shook his head and said secretly: "Lin Le suddenly appeared, his foundation was unstable, it was just a scabies, which was easy to deal with. The Cao family is our biggest concern! How much goods are we sold now and how much money did we make? The Cao family is trying to steal my property, which is unbearable! Lord Yuan, I heard that many people in Jinan have been dissatisfied with Cao Cao, and believe that they will take action soon. At that time, as long as we promote the fire, we can defeat the seemingly huge Cao family in one fell swoop! Lord Yuan is worried that the good show is coming!"
