Chapter 684 - 684 Lin Deshan

684 Lin Deshan

“Have you found out where Lin Deshan is?” The head of the Zeng family asked sternly.

The Butler shook his head and said, ” old master, not yet. However, I heard that boss Chen of the Guang Juyuan auction house is also looking for Lin Deshan.”

“He’s looking for Lin Deshan? ” the head of the Zeng family asked with a frown.

The Butler nodded and said, ” yes. I heard that boss Chen suspects that the milkvetch flower sold at Guangju Yuan was sold to him by Lin Deshan.”

Bang!

The cup in the Zeng family’s head’s hand fell to the ground, and his eyes widened in disbelief as he asked,

“What did you just say? I dare you to say that again!”

“Master, Chen Shanbiao suspects that Lin Deshan is the one who sold the milkvetch flower to Zhou Xingfa!”

“Impossible!”

“How could Lin Deshan, a weak scholar, get the flower? ” the Zeng family’s master shouted angrily.

The Butler frowned and said, ” old master, that was Lin Deshan from more than 20 years ago. Ever since the Lin family went bankrupt 20 years ago, he took over the Lin family’s responsibility alone. He only disappeared after he finished dealing with the Lin family’s affairs. Now that 20 years have passed, he must have changed.”

Hearing the news about Lin Deshan, the Zeng family’s master was both angry and panicked.

As if he knew what the master was worried about, the Butler consoled him. “but, master, Lin Deshan couldn’t do anything to you 20 years ago. Even if he does have the flower, he can’t possibly use it to fight against our Zeng Ji Medicine Hall.”

Hearing the housekeeper’s words of comfort, the Zeng family’s head relaxed slightly and nodded. “yes. If I could send Lin Deshan to hell 20 years ago, I can do the same 20 years later!”

The Butler nodded and replied, ” that’s right, master!”

However, the Zeng family head was still a little worried. “secretly send someone to find Lin Deshan. After you find him, ” he made a throat-cutting gesture, ” and then find the Lin family’s heirloom, the Lin family’s medical manual!”

“Yes, master!” The Butler replied.

After the housekeeper left, the Zeng family head felt a little uneasy.

Then, he slammed his fist on the table and said viciously, ” Lin Deshan, you escaped with Lin’s medical manual 20 years ago. This time, I, Zeng Yiming, will never let you go!”

…

At An Ding County, Lin Deshan wanted to go to Lin’s medicine hall to take a look. After all, Lin yuelan was not home, so he had to help take care of the medicine hall.

Who would have thought that he would be found by the subordinates of his old friend, Zhou Xingfa?

“Old master Lin, our old master sent me to look for you to ask for your help.” The man said with a bitter face, ” master doesn’t want to disturb you unless it’s a last resort.”

Lin Deshan frowned and immediately asked with concern, ” what’s wrong? What happened to brother Zhou?”

The person said, ” this is a long story. Ever since the auction of the milkvetch flower at guang juyuan, our auction house’s business has been on the rise. All those high-ranking officials and nobles were willing to come to guang juyuan to buy things, and for a while, we were in the limelight.

“However, it was precisely because of this that it attracted the jealousy of Jin Juyuan’s boss, Chen Shanbiao, who was in the same trade as him. He joined forces with a few large business families and reported Governor Zhou for corruption and bribery. He is already locked up in prison by the third Prince.

“Old master Lin should be very clear about the relationship between Governor Zhou and our old master. Hence, in order not to attract trouble, many people no longer dared to go to Guangju Yuan to auction and buy things. In addition to Jin Juyuan’s Chen Shanbiao’s backstabbing, Guangju Yuan’s business was sliding down. What was even more excessive was that, from time to time, local ruffians would come over to harass us. It’s making old master so anxious every day.”

After hearing the report, Lin Deshan pondered for a moment and said, ” wait for me. I’ll go back to Qingfeng City with you immediately!”

However, the person immediately refused, ” no, old master Lin, it’s too dangerous for you to go back to Qingfeng city now. You can’t go.”

Lin Deshan said angrily, ” brother Zhou is my good brother. How can I stand by and do nothing when my brother is in trouble? I must go.”

Seeing Lin Deshan’s determination, the person hesitated for a moment before saying, ” old master Lin, it might be inappropriate to say this, but it’s true that only you can help old master. If there are more precious auction items like the milkvetch flower, Guangju yuan can at least be maintained for a period of time. As long as we can survive this period of time, master will naturally have a way to bring back Guangju Yuan’s business.”
