My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 53
[Chapter 53: Insinuation]
Lin Tong was not convinced after being scolded. He rolled his eyes and was about to drag someone into the water.
So he started to arrange Jing Zhe, saying that the reason why the business of the watermelon shop is not good is Qingliang Yixia, and he also deliberately opened the shop opposite them, just to squeeze them!
The most irritating thing is that they asked them to change their surname Lin to his “Fan” surname, which is extremely arrogant!
Lin Wenyao was not a fuel-efficient lamp to begin with. After hearing this, he was furious.
So there was the scene where the police went to Qingliang Yixia to collect commercial taxes.
At this moment, the two detectives were sitting in the side room of the watermelon shop. They each held a small porcelain jar in their arms, and inside were ten popsicles, which were regarded as trophies received from Qingliang Yixia.
The two men not only ate two popsicles each at first, but in the end each took away ten popsicles. Even so, they did not spare Qingliang Yixia lightly in the end. They were so thick-skinned that no one could match them.
“How did things go?”
Facing the two detectives, Lin Tong didn’t have much respect on his face.
He is a clerk in the Lin Mansion and the person in charge of this watermelon shop. His most important identity is actually Lin Wenyao’s number one dog, biting whatever he wants. Lin Wenyao values him very much, otherwise he would not let him manage this place. Watermelon shop.
He was the one who took the lead in this matter, so the detectives came over to report the situation to him after they finished their work.
The two detectives were not worried about Lin Tong’s identity. After all, their immediate boss was Prefect Lin, and they were just doing the prefect’s favor in dealing with Qingliang Yixia. “
It
‘s done.”
As he said that, the lean detective took out ten taels of silver from his pocket and put it on the table. “This is the commercial tax received from over there!”
“Ten taels?”
The two of them glanced at each other and said, “So much?”
Lin Tong naturally knew that the commercial tax amount was 23% of a hundred taels. Even if they sold a turnover of 300 taels today, they would not be able to collect 10 taels.
What’s more, as far as he knew, they were far from selling for three hundred taels…
“Ang”, the lean detective raised his head, “Since he has offended Mr. Lin, naturally the commercial tax cannot be collected as usual. , I’ll teach him a lesson by charging him more!”
The lean agent said it calmly and with such seriousness that the agent next to him was dumbfounded.
“Not bad, not bad!”
Lin Tong nodded, then took out a tael of silver and handed it to them: “This tael of silver should be considered as hard work. You two go out for a drink!”
“No need!”
The lean agent didn’t even look at him and refused.
“It is our duty to do things for Young Master Lin, so why would we want to ask for money?”
“Okay! I will report the truth to Young Master tonight. You are so sincere, Young Master will never treat you badly! Come here, serve the watermelon. !”
Then he said to the two of them: “It’s hot, so let’s eat some watermelon to cool off!”
“No.”
The two detectives looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.
The lean policeman looked at Lin Tong and hesitated to speak.
After Lin Tong noticed it, he asked aloud: “If you have something to say, just say it, why hide it?”
“We just went to that Qingliangyixia store and tried their mung bean popsicles. It has an effect in relieving summer heat. “
Not only is it several times better than watermelon, but the most important thing is that it’s delicious. It’s really a good treat for the summer!”
Ignoring Lin Tong’s darkening face, the lean agent continued: “In my opinion, just charge him some business tax! It won’t do much to suppress them. As long as they continue to sell popsicles, the business of this watermelon shop will not be good!”
“Oh? In your opinion, what should we do?”
Lin Tong asked with narrowed eyes.
“With Mr. Lin’s skills, if you can use him to make ice, hehe…”
The words had been spoken, and Detective Lean said no more.
He stood up and said to Lin Tong, “Now that the matter is settled, the two of us will go back to the Yamen! Farewell!”
“Good go, you two!”
Lin Tong didn’t even bother to bow, and just said lightly, When the lean detective saw this, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes.
After leaving the door, the two came to a small alley.
The lean agent took out the remaining ten taels of silver from his clothes, took out five taels and handed it to another agent.
“Thank you, brother!”
The man took the agent and smiled happily.
After he put away the money, he asked curiously: “Brother, the boy just gave us the money, why don’t you want it?”
“Haha.”
The lean detective sneered, “Of course Mr. Lin disdains to ask for ten taels of silver. It’s probably going to fall into that guy’s pocket! But he only gave us a tael of money, which is not even enough to stuff his teeth. He is much more sinister than us! It’s better not to take any money than to take advantage of him!”
“Thankfully I’m smart, I only give him ten taels of silver. If I give him twenty taels of silver, I’m afraid we’ll end up with the same one tael of silver!”
“Brother is wise!”
the other agent said quickly.
“Haha, let’s not go back to the Yamen. Let’s go find a hotel to have a good drink first, and then go to Zuimenglou for a night of fun. Wouldn’t it be nice?”
Another detective’s eyes were bright and he smiled like a fool.
…
In the watermelon shop, Lin Tong’s face was filled with clouds.
Asking the two detectives to collect the commercial tax was a lesson to Qingliang Yixia and Jing Zhe.
Just as the lean policeman said, after a cool summer, the next step is to sell or sell, and the business of their watermelon shop should be yellow or yellow.
Lin Wenyao has asked the police to help him once. If he still can’t sell the watermelons, another massacre will be waiting for him!
How to make ice…
Lin Tong thought for a moment, then came to the door of the watermelon shop and looked outside.
Hey…
He happened to see the Qingliang Yixia diagonally across the street that was originally closed. The front door suddenly opened and a fat man walked out.
He had just met this man. Wasn’t he the fat man who almost killed his brother from the heat the day before yesterday and caused trouble in Qingliang Yixia?
Why is he in there?
He looked back and saw that few people had come to the watermelon shop recently. The waiters in the shop were very idle. At this time, they were all leaning on the side in boredom, wandering around.
“Hey, Goudan, come here!”
Lin Tong waved to a young boy who was leaning against the window and looked very shrewd.
After hearing the easy-to-understand and down-to-earth name, Goudan quickly ran over, “Brother Lin, are you looking for me?”
Lin Tong nodded and pointed outward: “Did you see that fat guy like a ball? “
Yeah, I saw it.”
“Follow him, and then ask him sideways -“
“What is sideways talk?”
Goudan looked confused.
“That’s it…”
Lin Tong spent all his efforts and finally explained it to him. Seeing Goudan running out of the store and disappearing into the distance, Lin Tong muttered to himself:
People like me have read books. , There are really fewer and fewer sensible guys!
