I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister!

After talking and talking, it turned out that it was about money again. I was so moved just now!

You are still the same young man who is greedy for money, nothing has changed!

Mo Rushuang said angrily:"Sir, one million is already a lot!"

"Is 1 million a lot? Do you know how much money I spent on researching the flying artifact, the big balloon?"

"How much did it cost?"Mo Rushuang and the two said in unison.

Lin Beifan said excitedly:"I spent more than 2 million taels! I spent more than 2 million taels to finally build the flying artifact, the big balloon! In addition to money, I also put in a lot of hard work! The prince only wants to spend 1 million and take away my manufacturing method. Do you think he is going too far, or am I going too far?"

"Are there really so many? Mo Rushuang blinked and asked.

Lin Beifan pointed to the door:"You can go out and ask around. This is something that the entire capital knows!" If it hadn't been for 2 million from the national treasury, where would the big balloons be?"

Looking at Lin Beifan's words, Mo Rushuang and Mo Rushuang believed him.

"How about... we add more? Is 1.5 million enough?"Mo Rushuang asked carefully.

"It’s only 1.5 million and you want to buy it?"Lin Beifan became excited again.

"1.5 million is already a lot, it was just this amount spent to save the prince last time!"Shaoshuai Guo said

"Yes, it only cost 1.5 million to save the prince! But do you know how much it will cost if I dedicate the manufacturing method to the prince? Lin Beifan said excitedly

"At what cost?"Mo Rushuang asked

"Let me tell you this, in order to save the prince last time, I bribed hundreds of officials with 1.5 million to ask everyone to help me, so I rescued the prince on the premise of saving my own life!"

"But this time, how do you want me to bribe officials? How do you want me to save my life? Lin

Beifan was extremely excited:"The Empress has given repeated orders that anyone who leaks the manufacturing method of the country's important weapons to others will be punished with beheading once discovered, and no one can protect him!" Now that the household department has been rectified, there is no possibility of leaks, and I am the only one left! Therefore, if the prince creates a big balloon and is discovered by the empress, I will definitely die! In other words, I am using my life to serve the prince! Lin

Beifan shook his head and roared heartbroken:"Your Majesty only lost a little money, but I lost my whole life!" If the money is gone, you can still make it again, but if your life is gone, you are really gone! What's wrong with me just asking for a little more money? Shouldn't it?"

Mo Rushuang and the others were scolded so much that they nodded repeatedly:"Yes, very yes."……"

Lin Beifan continued to be excited:"I now very much doubt whether the prince is targeting me on purpose. Why do you always give me such orders to die? Does he want me to die?""

"How could the prince want you to die? He just...just……"Mo Rushuang couldn't speak any more.

Because she also discovered that both of these orders were fatal.

The first order, to rescue the crown prince, almost caused Lin Beifan to die and lose everything.

The second order is to ask for the method of making the flying artifact. Once exposed, it will be a crime of beheading. And now it seems that it is indeed easy to be exposed, and death is almost certain.

I started to blame the prince in my heart. Why do you always give the young master such embarrassing tasks?

Isn't this intentional to harm people?

Marshal Guo reflected and felt that the prince's order was too embarrassing.

He opened his mouth and said:"Master Lin, thank you for your hard work!"

Lin Beifan sneered:"I'm not afraid to tell you, now I doubt the prince's intentions, so I must keep a hand for myself! Only when he holds a huge sum of money in his hand, will he care about me. Only when my life is at stake will I save me! I am just a helpless scholar. Everything I do is just to protect myself. Is it wrong?"

"Young Master, you are right, you did a great job! At any time, saving your life is the most important thing!"Mo Rushuang said immediately

"Mr. Lin, I understand your difficulties and I fully support you!"Shaoshuai Guo also said

"It’s good if you can understand! Lin Beifan nodded happily:"I am not an ignorant person!" If, in the end, it turns out that I was overthinking, one day in the future, I will return the money and support the prince's career!"

Mo Rushuang looked at Lin Beifan's thin shoulders and felt distressed.

As the other party said, he is just a scholar with no power!

However, in the court, all he does is to lose his head, too It’s not easy anymore!

He wants more money just to protect himself!

Because only when he has a lot of money in his hands, the prince will not be willing to let the other party die, and will save lives at critical moments, otherwise he will lose both his life and wealth.

Could it be that he was greedy for money before? , is this the purpose?

She seems to understand Lin Beifan better!

"Young Master, we will report the specific situation to the prince. I think he will understand your difficulties! Look, is 2 million enough?"Mo Rushuang said with a serious face.

"2 million, is this okay?" Lin Beifan blinked and suddenly felt that Mo Rushuang was so cute.

At this time, Shaoshuai Guo said dissatisfied:"Sister, how can 2 million be enough? Didn't you hear what the young master said? It cost more than 2 million to develop this flying artifact, so the asking price must be higher than this! In addition, the young master’s request for more money is just to protect himself. The more you ask for, the safer your life will be, so I think it’s at least 3 million!"

"3000000!!!"Lin Beifan looked at Marshal Guo and suddenly felt that this guy was a bit handsome. Why didn't he notice it before?

"Junior brother, what you said makes sense! However, 3 million is really too much. The prince may not have that much money!"Mo Rushuang frowned.

"Why not compromise? Just 2.5 million, I am not a greedy person!" Lin Beifan said seriously.

Mo Rushuang and the other two were very pleased:"Young Master really understands justice!"

So, this quick report was sent to King Jibei.

When King Jibei saw this letter, his face turned pale, and his hands and feet were cold and trembling.

Finally, he roared:"2.5 million, why don't you grab it?"

"Your Majesty, what happened?"Mr. Zhuge, the military advisor who just arrived, asked cautiously.

"See for yourself!"The prince threw the letter over.

Mr. Zhuge read it seriously, and his eyelids jumped at the end:"2.5 million, the asking price is indeed high! I thought that offering 1 million would satisfy his appetite, but I seriously underestimated him!

The prince sat on the Grand Master's chair and said angrily:"Military advisor, you saw it too!" It's not that I don't want to give it, but that Lin Beifan is too greedy. Where can I find so much money to give him?

Mr. Zhuge smiled and said,"I understand your prince's mood very well!" But I also understand Lin Beifan’s mood! Just as the letter said, the two missions assigned by the prince were almost all missions with a narrow escape from death! Therefore, Lin Beifan became suspicious of the prince, thinking that the prince was deliberately targeting him and protecting himself by asking for more money!"

"Lin Beifan was far away in the capital and had never seen the wise and mighty prince. Was he conquered by the prince's heroic appearance and noble character? He couldn't trust the prince, so he played this little trick! If it were me, I would do the same!"

The prince's mood relaxed a lot.

Mr. Zhuge cupped his hands and said:"So I suggest that you meet Lin Beifan's request! Although I lost a little money, I was able to gain the manufacturing method of the flying artifact and the loyalty of a top talent. Isn't it worth it? The prince smiled bitterly:"

But where will I find 2.5 million?" I paid 1.8 million a month ago, and I still haven’t gotten over it yet! This king is really powerless!"

"Your Majesty, 2.5 million is indeed a lot, but you can still squeeze it out by gritting your teeth! To know……"

Mr. Zhuge's eyes were wild:"All the major vassals and dynasties want to obtain the method of making the flying artifact! However, only you, the prince, have this opportunity. Isn't it worth spending a little more money?" The prince smiled proudly:"Strategy Advisor That's absolutely true! Thanks to the advice of the military advisor, I was able to acquire Lin Beifan as soon as possible, and I was able to get this precious opportunity, haha!"

"So, it’s worth spending a little extra!"

Mr. Zhuge said excitedly:"You know, if we obtain the Feitian artifact, our strength will be rapidly enhanced, surpassing other vassal kings, and having a better chance to conquer the Central Plains than others! If you capture the Central Plains and ascend the throne as emperor, won't you get back everything you lost? What's the point of losing a little money now?

The prince nodded repeatedly:"Military advisor, you are absolutely right!""

"And, my lord! This big balloon can carry people into the sky, which means that we can see the immortals in the sky, have the opportunity to obtain immortality, and live forever! Isn't it... worth spending a little money?"

When he thought that he would have the opportunity to see an immortal and live forever, the prince flushed with excitement and breathed rapidly:"Military advisor, you are absolutely right! As long as you can live forever, it's worth spending any amount of money! Since the other party wants money, just give it to him! 2.5 million taels is actually not much at all compared to the chance of immortality!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"Mr. Zhuge cupped his hands and said with a smile.

So, the banknote worth 2.5 million taels was quickly handed over to Lin Beifan.

Lin Beifan blinked, feeling a little regretful, feeling that it was less.

The other party gave it so readily, there must be more. More money!

This is a super fat sheep, the kind that oozes oil when walking on the road!

Lin Beifan secretly told himself that next time he would order more, he must not be merciful! Being kind to the prince is cruel to himself!

Right now The prince, who was dreaming of eternal life, suddenly sneezed!

"Now that the money has been given, what about the method of making the big balloon?"Mo Rushuang asked

"I'm already ready! This is how to make the flying artifact, the big balloon. Give it to the prince! Remember, this thing is very important and must not be exposed! Lin Beifan took out a piece of information and gave serious instructions.

Mo Rushuang and the other two took the information seriously:"We understand!""

Then he left with the information.

Lin Beifan looked at the two people leaving and smiled secretly.

Then he turned around and saw a white figure appearing next to him, staring at him like a ghost. The two looked at each other. Being so close almost scared him out of his three souls and seven souls

"Bai Guanyin, can you stop doing this? Next time it appears, can you make some noise so that I can be mentally prepared? Lin Beifan patted his chest and said fearfully.

Bai Guanyin glanced at him:"Didn't you say you were used to it?""

"I was already used to it, but I was defeated by your new way of appearing! Don't get so close, it's really scary!"

"I'll pay attention next time! Bai Guanyin said without sincerity:"But now I have a question. Did you really give the method of making the flying artifact large balloon to King Jibei?""
