Most of their profits from selling goods went into the pockets of these people.
This was tantamount to snatching food from her mouth. How could she tolerate this?
"How does he usually communicate with you?"
At this stage, Zhang Mao had nothing to hide anymore.
Then, he told them everything that had happened.
Initially, they only wanted to do some robbing business. Later on, when they had some scale, there were people in the 'pugilistic world' who took the initiative to connect them.
Initially, they could not make up their minds. Later on, Mister Liu came forward and allowed them to officially hook up with Master Zheng.
Moreover, because Zhang Mao was a boorish man, Mister Liu was the one who did all these to prevent him from offending those people.
After Zhang Mao had said all these in one breath, Lin Mengya smiled and looked at Mr Liu, whose face was as pale as a ghost.
"Either you say it yourself, or I force you to say it. Mister Liu, which do you choose?"
The words that came out of the woman's gentle voice made Mr. Liu shiver fiercely.
He didn't doubt that if he didn't say anything, this woman would kill him.
Even though his heart was filled with hatred, Mister Liu still gave in.
He warned himself in his heart that a real man should know when to yield and when to stand tall. As long as he could keep his life, he would definitely find a chance to take revenge for today's grudge in the future!
Lin Mengya saw the viciousness in his eyes, but she did not care.
There were many people who hated her. Did this matter matter?
Under Lin Mengya's' coercion ', Mister Liu roughly told them everything that needed to be said.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao listened from the beginning to the end and had mixed feelings.
After instructing the secret guards to keep an eye on him, they did not return to the inn immediately. Instead, they walked around the area.
Although the Zheng family was much weaker than the Gong family, they were still considered wealthy because they were located on the main road of transportation.
If the Zheng family really fell out with the Gong family, the Gong family would definitely be affected financially and in other areas.
This was not what she wanted to see.
"Yu, how much do you know about the Zheng family?"
Lin Mengya asked solemnly as she nestled in Long Tianhao's arms.
"The Zheng family and the Gong family used to be in-laws. Later on, the Gong family declined. Although the Zheng family didn't kick them when they were down, they didn't help them either. However, the Gong Family's properties in the Zheng Family's fief have been taken over by them. "
Although she had never met the current head of the Zheng family, she had heard of him.
Although this family head wasn't the smartest, he wasn't stupid either.
There was only one thing. After his wife gave birth to a daughter for him, she passed away.
This daughter's body was also very weak, and she was regarded as a pearl by the Zheng Family's Patriarch.
Later on, he took in a few concubines, but after so many years, he didn't give birth to a single child.
That was how Grandpa Zheng came to be.
Everyone was saying that the position of the head of the Zheng family might belong to this Grandpa Zheng in the future.
Therefore, Lin Mengya suspected that since Grandpa Zheng was behind this, it might be the intention of the Zheng family.
"I can let bygones be bygones. But this time, they have gone too far. But if this is the intention of the Zheng family, it will be a little tricky. "
Long Tianhao couldn't bear to see her worry, so he gently rubbed her delicate little ear with his lips, which made her hide in his arms again and again.
"That's easy. Since they are in the way, just kill them."
Lin Mengya raised her head and poked his chest disapprovingly.
"How can you talk about killing people so easily? Isn't it illegal to kill people?"
Long Tianhao looked as calm as a mountain. He lowered his head and said casually, "I'm a member of the royal family. Killing people only needs to be punished with money."
Lin Mengya choked. What's so great about being a member of the royal family? Humph, the evil old society!
However, she felt that if it was the intention of the Zheng family, even if she killed Grandpa Zheng, there might be some Second Master or Third Master. Why not …
She licked her lips and showed a sinister smile without realizing it.
"Why don't we do it alone?"
As soon as Long Tianhao saw her look, he knew that this girl must be thinking of some dirty tricks.
But he just liked this naughty look of hers. For a moment, he only felt itchy in his heart.
"You have the final say."
"Then let us, the Female and Male Evil Duo, make a comeback! Go for the ducks and take back our family's money! "
Long Tianhao was almost laughed to death by her. What Female and Male Evil Duo? He had never had such a strange nickname.
But looking at her excited look, Long Tianhao felt it was novel and interesting. He had to accompany her anyway. Now the two of them went alone, but it suited him.
The two of them shared a horse. Instead of going back to the inn to inform her great-grandfather, she ordered someone to secretly tell the news that they had gone alone.
As for the matter that her great-grandfather and the two babies felt that they had been fooled and shouted that they were too cunning, she didn't know at all.
Now Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao went deep into the heart of the Zheng family's fief without attracting any attention at all.
For a few days in a row, there was news that those robbers were beaten to their lair every day.
It was said that there were only two people, a man and a woman. It was said that the man and the woman did nothing but forced the robbers to tell them the place where they hid their money.
Then, after looting the robbers' lair, they forced them to turn over a new leaf and forbade them from robbing again. Otherwise, they would beat them every time they saw them.
So the robbers could only cry in their stomachs.
The two of them carried the banner of enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens, but when it came to silver, they would not be soft-hearted. Even the copper coins hidden in the gaps between their toes would be washed clean and handed over with both hands.
How could they be chivalrous? They were obviously worse than the robbers.
Such turbulence had no effect on ordinary people.
But in the main city of the Zheng family, someone had already flown into a rage.
"Find out, find out for me! If I know who did it, I must peel off his skin with my own hands! "
In the main residence of the Zheng family, Zheng Luxi, who was known as Master Zheng, looked as black as ink.
These people were all his subordinates, and 70% of the money in his hands came from these people. They could become his cash cow.
Cutting off one's source of wealth was like killing one's parents. Moreover, it was in the Zheng family's territory.
Since they dared to provoke Tai Sui, he would definitely drag these two people out and hack them into pieces!
"What happened?"
At this time, a man in his fifties dressed as a Taoist priest walked into Zheng Luxi's room with a frown.
Outside, the butler, who had been scolded for several days because of the anger of the Taoist priest, went up to him with a flattering smile as if he had seen a life-saving elixir.
"My Second Master, you're finally back. Our Young Master is throwing a tantrum because of something. Please calm him down. "
The Second Master of the Zheng family, who was also the only brother of the head of the Zheng family, frowned.
He knew his son's temperament very well. At this critical moment, he could not afford to cause any trouble.
When Zheng Luxi saw the anger on his father's face, he could only calm down a little.
"Father."
"Yes, I heard from the servants that you've been angry for a few days. What's the matter this time?"
Zheng Lianen felt a little helpless toward his son, but he was more reluctant to part with him. Therefore, he would try his best to satisfy his son's requests since he was young.
However, this child did not understand him at all.
"Father, this time, I didn't take the initiative to cause trouble. You know, I only set up a few places in the fief for the traveling merchants to rest. I even asked people to escort them to and fro for a small fee. However, who would have thought that two barbarians would come out of nowhere and smash my place, and even rob my money! How can I, your son, tolerate this? "
Zheng Luxi's face was full of resentment as he said this.
Zheng Lianen was not that easy to fool. In fact, he also knew that his son had colluded with the gangs in the fief to exploit the traveling merchants.
In the past, he did not care about it because the merchants were not powerful. After all, they also used the Zheng family's trade route.
However, under the influence of another major event, some things could no longer be as blatant as before.
"If that's the case, you can send people to arrest them in secret. However, it's time for you to stop those shady businesses of yours. "
"Father!"
Zheng Luxi was indignant, but Zheng Lianen only gave him a cold look, and he immediately became listless.
"I know what you're thinking, but compared to the entire Zheng family, those small profits are really insignificant."
As expected, Zheng Luxi's attention was attracted by him.
His greedy eyes shone with a different kind of light. Zheng Luxi rubbed his hands and asked in disbelief, "Uncle, have you agreed to give the Zheng family to me?"
Zheng Lianen shook his head, but there was a hint of coldness on his face.
"Not for the time being. It's no wonder. My eldest brother has been the head of the family for so long, even I couldn't dispel his doubts, let alone you being the young head of the family. However, even if he doesn't want to give it to you, he only has a sickly daughter. This family will belong to you sooner or later. I think he has been a little lax recently. You still have to perform well, and don't let others get hold of anything wrong. "
"Yes! Don't worry, Father. I will definitely take back the position of the head of the family and avenge you! "
Zheng Lianen nodded in satisfaction, but he could not suppress the joy in his heart.
So what if he did not become the head of the family? In the end, the position of the head of the family would still return to him.
It was time for his eldest brother to taste the feeling of being deprived of everything!
