Chapter 806 - 806 A Price
806 A Price
Lin yuelan didn’t hide anything. “indeed. But does this have anything to do with boss Chen?”
Chen shanbiao smiled bitterly and said, ” yes. This is exactly why I’m here.”
Lin yuelan asked curiously, ” Oh? Why don’t you tell us about it, boss Chen?”
Chen Shanbiao nodded, ” alright!”!!
Then, he began to talk about it.
Originally, the Jin Juyuan auction house and the Guang ju Yuan auction house were the two largest auction houses in Qingfeng city.
The guang juyuan auction house had the support of Governor Zhou. In order to curry favor with Governor Zhou and give him face, people would naturally give face to guang juyuan and do business there.
Jin Juyuan’s Chen Shanbiao was purely a businessman without any backing, but he also had his own connections. He could get his hands on all kinds of rare treasures. These treasures naturally attracted the interest of the upper echelons of Qingfeng city. Naturally, this business would not be too bad.
However, the difference started with the auction of the milkvetch flower at guang juyuan.
The sudden appearance of the milkvetch flower in Guang ju Yuan auction house immediately attracted everyone’s attention. This item was even bought by the richest man, Li Fazhi, at a high price.
Because of the milkvetch flower, Guangju Yuan’s reputation seemed to have risen to a new level. After that, their auction items were all smooth sailing, and their business was booming.
On the other hand, Jin Juyuan’s business was getting worse and worse. All the staff members were sighing and looking at their competitors making money.
As the boss, Chen Shanbiao was so anxious that his hair turned white overnight.
Later on, someone came over to remind him that if Jin Juyuan continued like this, it would close down, while Guang ju Yuan would continue to expand until it became the Overlord of Qingfeng city.
Rather than waiting for death, it was better to find the other party’s weakness and let them die first.
Just like that, Chen Shanbiao sent people to search for the source of the milkvetch flower, and at the same time, he followed the other party’s instructions to collect evidence of corruption and bribery of the boss behind Guangju Yuan.
Then, after he found the so-called evidence, he immediately had people send it to the capital’s Ministry of Justice, and these people would present it to the Emperor.
Not long after, a decree came from the capital. The third Prince, Yuwen feiye, was an Imperial envoy to Qingfeng city to investigate the matter.
As expected, the moment this news came out, Guangju Yuan’s business was greatly affected.
Chen Shanbiao knew that the boss of guangjuyuan, Zhou Xingfa, would definitely find a rare treasure to save guangjuyuan’s business and reputation. Therefore, he would definitely look for the person who sold him the milkvetch flower.
The truth was just as he had expected. The subordinate he sent to follow Zhou Xingfa reported that he had indeed gone to find the person who sold guang juyuan the milkvetch flower.
However, he had never expected that the person would be Lin deshan, who had disappeared twenty years ago.
After that, Lin Deshan rushed over to help Zhou Xingfa.
Lin yuelan was well aware of the series of events that happened after that.
After hearing Chen shanbiao’s description, Lin yuelan immediately understood what he meant. She said sharply, ” boss Chen, you said you needed me to save you. Are you talking about how you framed Governor Zhou? Now that Governor Zhou had come out safe and sound, he would definitely investigate the person who had reported him. You think you can’t escape, so you came to me?”
Chen shanbiao was a little embarrassed and said, ” that’s right.”
However, Lin yuelan immediately asked sharply, ” but, boss Chen, what makes you think I’ll help you? First, I have no relationship with you; Second, I have no relation or friendship with Governor Zhou. Let’s not talk about whether or not I can help, but even if I can, why should I help you?”
Chen shanbiao knew about this matter. It was indeed very difficult to ask Lin yuelan for help. However, since Governor Zhou had accepted Lin yuelan’s invitation, she was his only hope. Therefore, he had come to Lin yuelan with this slim hope.
Chen Shanbiao shyly pleaded with a glimmer of hope, ” young miss Lin, although this matter is very difficult for you, you are my only hope. Young miss Lin, I beg you, please save me. Even if you want me to pay any price, I am willing!
Lin yuelan pondered for a moment and asked seriously, ” boss Chen, if I can really save you, are you willing to pay any price? ”
Hearing Lin yuelan’s question, Chen Shanbiao’s pleading eyes immediately lit up. He answered without thinking, “of course I’m willing!
Lin yuelan nodded slightly, but then she asked, ” boss Chen, you know that I, Lin yuelan, am the granddaughter of Lin Deshan. I’ve been staying in Qingfeng city in my grandpa’s place all this time to clear the name of the Lin family twenty years ago, and then take revenge!
“I will take revenge on all those who framed the Lin family, let the Lin family down, and hit the Lin family when they were down. The Zeng family was a good example.
“I wonder if boss Chen has ever done anything to let the Lin family down twenty years ago?”
Chen Shanbiao immediately shook his head, ” no, definitely not. Young miss Lin, you must believe me!”
Back then, he didn’t lend a helping hand, nor did he hit the Lin Family when they were down. He only stood at the side.
Lin Yuelan wouldn’t take revenge on him for that, right? Chen Shanbiao thought to himself suspiciously.
Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” that’s good. If I find out that you had any ill intentions back then, then not only will Governor Zhou want your life, even I will not let you off easily, do you understand?”
Chen Shanbiao nodded and said, ” yes, I know, I know!”
“Alright, I’ll help you with this.” Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” however, you have to pay the price!”
“Do tell, young miss Lin!” Chen Shanbiao said anxiously.
