Chapter 463 Qingsong Villa

Thirty miles away from the west of the city, Lin Dong and Yun Lan stopped. In the sight, there was a huge manor, a wooden fence, forming a large circle.

Inside, there are endless rice fields. The green rice ears swaying constantly in the breeze, like groups of students shaking their heads and reciting poems.

In the gaps of the rice fields, small wooden houses are like tireless warriors, guarding this land of people.

Seeing smoke rising in the wooden house and no one was guarding nearby, Lin Dong looked up at the plaque hanging above the gates of the two giant woods in the manor, and called Yun Lan and walked straight in.

Following the gravel road in the middle of the rice fields, the two of them walked forward. Soon, they arrived at a large mansion covering an area of ​​less than four or five thousand square meters.

The front yard gate was not closed, and two servants were sitting under the shade of the tree and chatting. When they saw someone coming to the door, they immediately stood up.

"Who are you looking for?"

"We are Mr. Ren's friends in Southwest County, so we come here to talk about the past," Lin Dong explained.

"My master is not here, you..." One of the older servants hesitated and ran all the way over, and there was no village or shop nearby, so it was a bit unreasonable for people to leave. But the master's friend, this may not be true. Who knows if he is a liar?

"Can we let us go in and wait?" Lin Dong asked.

"This... Ang Lee, go and ask Old Dog Li to see if you can let others come in and wait." The elderly family ordered.

The servant who called Ang Lee nodded immediately and quickly walked to the inner house.

In half an hour, Ang Lee trotted back.

"How is it, what does Old Dog Li say?" asked the elderly servant.

Ang Lee hesitated for a moment and said the truth: "It is said that the master will not come back within a month or two, and there are no guest rooms here. Let's go to the account room to get 200 cents and leave each person."

"Can you ask, who is Li Laogou?" Lin Dong suddenly felt funny. The shopkeeper of the dignified Linji Inn was actually treated as a poor relative and came to ask for help.

Having said that, one hundred cents can cost you two, and you can walk from the southwest city to the capital. Not to mention food and accommodation, just ten pairs of shoes costing ten cents will not be enough to wear.

The two looked at Lin Dong and Yun Lan. The man had an extraordinary temperament, and the woman had an indescribable fairy aura. She didn't look like a person who made small reports.

The older servant couldn't help but explain: "Li Laogou is the second housekeeper of our Qingsong Villa. He is the main business in the village, and he is mean and dangerous. We servants don't have to worry about nothing to do. If the villa's wages were not high, Master Ren and the family members would be good, we would have stopped working long ago."

Lin Dong knew it, calculated for a moment, and said helplessly: "Since it will take more than ten days, I'll come here again in more than ten days! After Mr. Ren comes back, please give me a greeting."

"Brother Ma, why don't I go find the butler?" Ang Lee asked.

"You big butler is here?" Lin Dong was a little surprised. He had thought that Yang Laiting had always been with Ren Qingsong, and the servants were the first to repay the second butler, so he didn't ask this question.

"Here, Liu An, go and look for it." The older servant explained: "The butler likes to be lively and is always with the merchants on weekdays and will only come back at night. Li Laogou has the final say in the affairs of the merchant."

"Then it won't be a problem for us to wait here?" Lin Dong asked.

"It's okay. Don't wait here for hot weather. There are shades of trees inside." The elderly family member was very good-minded and immediately called Lin Dong and the others into the room. He asked himself that there were still some permissions.

Lin Dong nodded with a smile, took out two ingots of five taels of silver from the mobile counter, and put it into the hands of the elderly servant with a smile: "Brother, take it and have a drink with the little brother just now."

"How can you be so embarrassed? How can you be so embarrassed..." Although the elderly servant was polite, he couldn't help but stuff the silver into his clothes. Five taels of silver was enough for his monthly salary. If he had changed it to the past, it would have to be worth two months' salary.

It’s not good, but he gets money again. The older family members are naturally more and more polite, moving stools, pouring tea, and taking a fan... After all, even though they are alone, they no longer worry that Lin Dong and the others will take the opportunity to sneak into the house. After all, they can cost ten taels of silver at one move. He has never encountered such a generous liar. Even if he really meets him today, he admits it. He can make up his mind to leave Qingsong Villa, and by the way, he can also commit a crime of improper employment for Mr. Li, and maybe he will be driven out of the villa with him.

It took more than an hour to wait. Seeing that the scorching sun was approaching the center of the sky, a figure trotted over outside the courtyard gate.

Lin Dong stood up. Although he was far apart, he could see clearly that this figure was Yang Laiting.

He ran into the yard sweating all the way, and Yang Laiting was panting like a cow and couldn't even say a word.

"Uncle Yang, I haven't seen you for more than half a year. You have changed your appearance." Lin Dong couldn't help but be amazed. He was wearing a short coat of coarse cloth, naked and dark. This image had completely subverted Yang Laiting in Lin Dong's memory before.

After taking the tea handed over by the elders, Yang Laiting finally recovered and smiled: "Don't mention it, I'm idle and work hard labor for several farmers. The scorching sun is almost drying out a layer of skin."

"Uncle Yang was not with Dean Ren?" Lin Dong was a little surprised. These two people were a master-servant relationship between a young master and a servant. They were both homeless. Now, they are said to be master-servant, but they are more like brothers.

"No idle people are allowed to go to that place." Yang Laiting said helplessly: "There is no choice but to buy a manor here to settle me."

"What kind of cool labor should I do if I don't do well in the landlord?" Lin Dong smiled and said, "It's not that Uncle Yang did something wrong and was punished, right?"

"You don't know that I've been bored in the Southwest City for more than 40 years. I've finally been busy for a few years and have to let me free again. How can I stand it?" Yang Laiting shook his head and suddenly slapped his head: "Look at me, just talk about the past. Manager Lin and Miss Yun, please come in."

"Director Ren will really take more than a month to come back, so I'd better come back next time!" Lin Dong shook his head. He knew that Yang Laiting was here, so Ren Qingsong could not come back one or two months later. Although the plantation in Tianwei Pavilion is a forbidden area, it is not a secret. Ren Qingsong, the second-in-command, was no longer restricted from entering and leaving.

When Lin Dong said this, he wanted to know the exact time. Secondly, he was so mean to do something bad. He believed that Yang Laiting should not know the character of the second housekeeper, otherwise he would have been driven out long ago.

After all, he is an old friend, and Yang Laiting has never studied martial arts, so it is hard to guarantee that he will not be plotted against by this second housekeeper.

"I will come back every three or five days. Calculate the day. Logically, I will come back before this evening. I have asked Liu An to wait for Yanshan. That Li Chongshang is simply outrageous. Even Manager Lin dares to cheat." Yang Laiting suddenly came out of anger.

"Do you know this person's character?" Lin Dong said in surprise.

Yang Laiting shook his head: "Liu An found me just now, and I knew it was Manager Lin who came when I heard it. I heard that you didn't invite you in and sit down, so I fired him. As a result, Liu An told me everything about Li Chongshang. He deceived his superiors and subordinates, and told him that it would have made Manager Lin laugh at him. If I hadn't been outside all day, I wouldn't have caused such a thing."

Lin Dong smiled and said, "I'll see if Uncle Yang is showing his might later."

"Let's go, I heard Liu An say he is having a banquet at the moment. I'll take a look. He doesn't care about the guests. What kind of guests are being banqueted?" Yang Laiting said hatefully.

"It hurts your body because of your great anger. How is Dean Ren doing in Tianwei Pavilion?" Lin Dong smiled and changed the subject.

"The dean is just a new arrival and cannot access those high-level auxiliary spiritual materials for cultivation." Yang Laiting shook his head and said, "Besides, the owner of the Lingcai Building is old and has not managed the spiritual materials for management in recent years. I believe that he will resign from his post in one or two years. In addition to the newly promoted dean, the other three managers are now willing to suppress their opponents and hope to take over the position of the Lingcai Building. If you want to take over the main position, the most important thing is to rely on who has made great contributions. In the Spirit Catalog, it is the greatest contribution to ensure that there will be no mistakes in the maintenance of the high-level auxiliary spiritual materials for cultivation. If you want this contribution, you naturally have to hold the spiritual materials for managing the high-level auxiliary spiritual materials. Therefore, the dean cannot insert it at all."

"The most contribution in the Spiritual Material Building should be to find new high-level spiritual materials, right?" Lin Dong retorted. After Ren Qingsong took office for more than half a year, he guessed that it was impossible to get in touch with high-level auxiliary spiritual materials so quickly. Today's purpose is just to ask about the detailed situation and then try to help him.

There are several high-level auxiliary spiritual materials for Linji Inn.

"It's not easy!" Yang Laiting shook his head repeatedly. A manager in Lingcai Building could mobilize a lot of people, including two powerful people in the Heart Reverse Stage. But when people were sent out, let alone discovering high-level spiritual materials, in half a year, they could not even find a low-level spiritual materials that were not found in the plantation.

"Why do you have to look for it? I have a few on hand." Lin Dong said lightly.

"You have?" Yang Laiting paused and then looked at Lin Dong ecstatically.

"There are several kinds of spiritual materials that assist in the cultivation of high-level spiritual materials, but I cannot raise the environment suitable for these spiritual materials and the nutrients needed every day." Lin Dong nodded.

"That……"

Yang Laiting was suddenly suspicious, but was interrupted by Lin Dong's head, "Let's talk about this matter when Dean Ren comes! Don't talk about it again. Uncle Yang, how much money does this manor cost?"

Yang Laiting nodded and smiled, "The dean is the manager of Lingcai Building, and he is the second-rank official. If you want to buy some family business, you don't have to do it yourself. Just write a list, write a clear requirement, and then hand it over to the Interior Building."

"This benefit is good!" Lin Dong was amazed.

While talking and chatting, the three of them came to the hall.

The hall is two or three hundred square meters, and the decoration is not luxurious, but it is definitely a first-class existence in this rural wild place. Picture scrolls, antiques, and furniture are all valuable treasures.

On the two Grand Master Chairs opposite the gate were covered with white white spirit beast skins. On the spirit beast skin were two middle-aged men in their early 40s.

On the main seat, Li Chongshang frowned as he watched Yang Laiting's mud-filled feet step on the carpet covering the entire hall.
