687 The Conspiracy
Family head Lu clapped his hands and said excitedly, ” that’s right. I heard that in a small county like An Ding County, the restaurant would make more than ten thousand taels of silver a month. Zhou Changsheng and his son would get a share.
“In a bustling place like Zhou Shan city, the business of the restaurant is even better. The profits might even be several times higher than that of An Ding County.
“Could it be that Zhou Changsheng didn’t feel jealous and didn’t have any complaints when he saw that brat making so much money?”
“Yes, that’s it. As long as we can sow discord between Zhou Changsheng and that brat, we can then attack the restaurant. Isn’t that convenient?”
“Yes, that’s it.”
When they thought of the various fruits and vegetables in the restaurant, the sky-high prices they sold them at, the benefits they gained, and the benefits of the entire restaurant, it made their hearts itch, and they were suddenly moved.
If they could take all the profits of the restaurant, then force the girl to hand over all the fruit sources, and then monopolize it, wouldn’t they be able to suppress the other three families?
The family heads of the four great families all had the same thought.
At this moment, a servant from the Zhang family came over and reported, ” old master, there’s news that the young master of Lin’s medicine Hall is the owner of the restaurant!”
“What?”
The four of them were shocked when they heard the news.
“Is this information wrong?” The head of the Zhang family asked with a serious face.
“It can’t be wrong,” The servant reported, ” not long ago, Lin Qingzhu, the manager of Lin’s Medicine Hall, introduced her in public. The young master he introduced is also called Lin yuelan. Her age and appearance are exactly the same as the owner of the restaurant.”
“How is that possible?” The four of them still couldn’t accept this kind of news.
This was because they had just been planning on how to take all the benefits of the restaurant, and now they were exposed to such explosive news.
However, the news that was even more unacceptable was still coming.
“Old master, there’s even a rumor that the young master of Lin’s medicine Hall is the young Divine Doctor who pulled the patients back from the gates of hell!” The servant looked at the atmosphere that had suddenly turned cold and reported the news that had just come in from outside with some fear.”
“How did this happen?” The people led by the Lu family’s head had a look of disbelief in their eyes. They glared at the servant as if they wanted to cut him into pieces…
The servant was so frightened by such a gaze that he trembled all over, and his face turned pale. However, he continued to tremble as he said, ” old … old master.”
The head of the Zhang family raised his hand and ordered, ” you may leave!”
After the servant left, the atmosphere was still stiff and cold.
After a while, family head Huang said in disbelief, ” a child in her teens actually has such heaven-defying abilities. How is this possible? ”
As soon as he said this, Master Lu seemed to immediately remember the results of the investigation.
Master Lu exclaimed, ” I remember now. The people who went to the Lin family Village to investigate said that Lin yuelan was a monster. She had come back from the dead and had a new life out of thin air.”
“What? there’s actually such a thing?” The other three were shocked. “A monster? Isn’t she a jinx?”
“Who said that a monster can’t be a jinx?” The Lu family head immediately retorted.
“So, we just need to collect evidence that the girl is a demon and spread the news. If she’s not a demon, then why is she the only one who has those fruits that we’ve never seen before? If she wasn’t a demon, how could a young person like her be able to cure a condition that even senior doctors who have studied medicine for decades can’t?”
“Right, we can even talk about the matter of her being a jinx.”
In order to get value from Lin yuelan, the family heads of the four great families used everything they had.
However, they didn’t know that Lin yuelan was even more of a monster than they thought.
Just as they were discussing the simplest and most convenient way to deal with Lin yuelan, a servant of the Zhang family hurriedly came over and reported, ” family head, we’ve just received news that Lin yuelan has brought two girls and two guards to the city gate in a carriage.”
