Chapter 150
Lin Hai did not relax his vigilance because of their warm greetings.

The more this happens, the more it indicates there is a problem.

They are obviously enemies, but they spend so much effort to entertain them.

There must be a big trap.

Chen Yang raised his glass and said, "It's really a big honor for you, Mr. Lin, to come! I'd like to pay a toast to Mr. Lin!"

Lin Hai waved his hand and said: "There's no need to drink. I have to go to the Yamen later. What's the etiquette of drinking!"

Pick up the tea cup!

"I'll take tea instead of wine!" Lin Hai picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Chen Yang was immediately stunned.
He didn't expect that he would spend such a high price to let Lin Hai come over, just to get him drunk until night and then find ways to anger him.

As long as there is a fight in the brothel, there will be an excuse to deal with him.

Unexpectedly, Lin Hai refused to drink.

Wouldn't this make all his hard work in vain?

Chen Yang quickly winked at Shangguan Yun and Meng Bofei.

I want the two of them to help persuade me.

Shangguan Yun picked up the wine glass and said, "You cannot go back to the Yamen today no matter what, you must drink to your heart's content!"

"That's right. Mr. Chen spent a huge price to invite Mr. Lin today. He specially invited Miss Shaoyao from Baihualou.

Miss Shaoyao can't be seen all the time.

Don't miss such a good opportunity! "

Meng Bofei also said immediately,

Lin Hai pretended to be curious and asked: "We really invited an oiran! I heard that it will cost a lot of money to invite an oiran to accompany you."

Chen Yang saw Lin Hai's surprised look.

Suddenly I felt confident.

He said with a proud look: "As long as Mr. Lin is happy, spending a little money is nothing!"

Lin Hai immediately extended his thumb.

"I almost forgot, Mr. Chen is from the Chen family! Not only is he rich and powerful, but he also has a high status."

"What does a mere oiran mean? It's not a matter of just a word to ask him to accompany you for a drink!"

Chen Yang was stunned by these two sentences.

"It's a trivial matter, Mr. Lin is so grateful!"

Lin Hai's face suddenly turned cold when he saw the cheerful looks of the three people.

"But there are some things I still want to say!"

"Master Lin, please speak, we will definitely listen!" Shangguan Yun said quickly.

I thought that I would teach them, which was a great thing that I could only hope for.

"Mr. Chen is from the Chen family and comes from a noble family! Even if he does not take part in the imperial examination, he can still be recommended as an official in the future. His future is limitless."

"But as far as I know, you two come from ordinary families. Although your family is relatively wealthy, you cannot give up your struggle because of this.

You should study hard, take the imperial examination, and go to high school as soon as possible. Only then will you be on the right track! "

Shangguan Yun and Meng Bofei accepted the teachings with an open mind.

"Thank you Master Lin for your teaching. We will definitely study hard when we go back!"

Lin Hai nodded and said: "How can you postpone studying? If you don't win the exam, you shouldn't waste your time here.

You should go back to study now! "

The two people looked ashamed after being scolded and didn't know what to say.

Chen Yang never dreamed that things would develop to this point.

We're obviously here to drink wine, so why are we talking about studying again?

Lin Hai looked at Chen Yang again, looking distressed.

"Mr. Chen, logically it's not my place to say this. Although you have a good background, you should work harder to study and become the pillar of the family.

It costs hundreds of taels of silver to hire an oiran, and it also costs a lot of food for the table.

Do you know how many soldiers can be fed with so much money?A soldier's annual salary is only five taels of silver. Aren't you ashamed that this meal costs so much? "

Lin Hai became more and more excited as he talked and clasped his fists in the direction of the border gate.

"At such an old age, the prince resolutely led troops to fight in order to defend Daxia. Up to now, the imperial court has not even prepared the military pay.

I suggest that we shouldn't waste money on this kind of place.

How much money do you spend to ask the oiran to return it immediately and donate the money to the court?

Add strength to the fight against the enemy! "

Shangguan Yun and Meng Bofei became extremely excited after hearing such an inspiring speech.

"Master Lin is so loyal and courageous, he is truly a role model for our generation!"

"Yes, Master Lin has already become a fourth-grade official at the same age as us. Many people said before that Master Lin was promoted through connections.

But when we met today, we realized how high Mr. Lin's level was. "

"Let's go back and study hard and strive to serve the court as soon as possible!"

Lin Hai was filled with relief after hearing what the two of them said.

"Okay, as long as you can pass the Jinshi examination, I will definitely ask the prince to recommend you!"

After hearing Lin Hai's promise, the two of them were extremely excited.

At this moment, Chen Yang's face was turning blue and purple with anger.

After spending such a high price to invite Lin Hai here, not only did he not get any benefits, but he was reprimanded.

"Since there's nothing wrong, let's stop here. Let the madam come over and refund the money, and I'll donate it to the court for you.

It would be a waste not to eat this table of delicious food.

Let’s pack it up and take it home to eat! "

Chen Yang was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

You can't even eat the banquet you spent money on.

He quickly stood up and stopped him: "I've already booked it, how can I cancel it?"

"Why don't we just do it this once? Let's finish the banquet without making any exceptions!"

Lin Hai looked very serious: "Absolutely not!"

"In order to prepare for disaster relief and border military pay, your Chen family complained in various ways, saying that the family's expenses were too high and they really had no money to donate."

"Now you spend hundreds of taels of silver on a banquet. If this matter spreads, won't it bring shame to your Chen family?"

"If someone brings this matter to the court, how will Mr. Chen explain it?"

I saw Lin Hai carrying all the family members out.

No matter how courageous Chen Yang was, he would not dare to argue.

I had no choice but to call the madam over to discuss refunding the money.

When the madam came and listened to the request, she was stunned.

Shaoyao is so popular in the capital that people have to queue up to see him.

There are people who actually want to refund money in person.

Of course the madam refused.

"How can this be unreasonable? How can our girl quit at any time? This is the most famous oiran in the capital. How can we do business in the future if we just give up at her request?"

Lin Hai glanced at her.

"Do you know who the official is?"

"I don't care who you are, even the prime minister didn't do this when he came to my place."

"This is Jing Zhaoyin, Master Lin!"

The madam was shocked when she heard this. Others were not afraid, but although Jing Zhaoyin's official position was not the highest, he could indeed control them.

"I'll give you one last chance, if you don't refund the money! I have reason to believe that your store is cheating customers, and maybe there are other illegal things hidden.

Don't blame me for transferring all the government officials over and searching them every day! Lin Hai said coldly.
