Chapter 1845: The Lin Group’s Real Estate Construction Company Was Exposed
“Because…That was because…Ah…” Just as Second Brother Hu was about to explain, his voice suddenly went hoarse.
He grabbed his throat, unable to speak. He did not know what was going on.
“Second Brother, Second Brother, what’s wrong?” Master Hu and his brothers were shocked.” Why are you suddenly speechless?”
Second Brother Hu shook it with all his might, but it was useless.
“Could it be…Is it retribution?” Master Hu and a few of his brothers reacted. They looked at Lin Yuelan and quickly lowered their heads.
At this moment, Prince Ping seemed to be very angry as he shouted at Lin Yuelan,” Princess Guguo, you actually poisoned him? Could it be that you’re guilty, so you poisoned him?”
Lin Yuelan looked at the overbearing Prince Ping and sneered.” Prince Ping, you can’t say whatever you want! Do you have any proof that I poisoned them?” At this point, she glanced at Boss Hu and the others and said with an unclear meaning,” I suspected that you were the one who poisoned them. After all, you’re the closest to them!”
When Prince Ping heard that, he was so angry that his face turned ashen. He pointed at Lin Yuelan angrily and shouted,” You… You’re slandering me!”
Lin Yuelan retorted sharply, “So when I said it was Prince Ping who poisoned them, it was slander, but it was not slander when you said it was me who poisoned them?”
Prince Ping continued to argue,” Among all the people present, you are the only one with superb martial arts and superb medical skills. With your ability, it would be absolutely easy for you to poison him from afar!”
Jiang Zhennan’s cold expression became even more stern. He defended Lin Yuelan and retorted,” Prince Ping, please don’t speak without evidence! Is it wrong for the princess to have martial arts and medical skills?”
Prince Ping choked.
The imperial grandson stood out again and said,” Great General, you can’t blame Prince Ping for this. It was obvious that Second Brother Hu wanted to say something, but he suddenly became mute and couldn’t say anything. One had to know that what Second Brother Hu wanted to say seemed to involve the Princess of Guguo. So, if Second Brother Hu suddenly can’t speak, wouldn’t everyone suspect Princess Gu?”
At this moment, Lin Yuelan suddenly said loudly,” His Royal Highness is right. It’s indeed easy to suspect me. However, I, Lin Yuelan, have always been upright. I’m not afraid of being criticized. Why would I take the unnecessary step of poisoning him in front of everyone?”
“Because you’re guilty!” Prince Ping suddenly pointed out loudly.
“Hehe, I’m guilty?” Lin Yuelan found it funny and asked,” Why would I feel guilty?”
“Because you owe them wages. They work for you, and you deduct their wages!” Prince Ping said matter-of-factly,” Otherwise, why would they chase you to the Crown Prince’s residence and ask for their salary?”
At this point, he looked at Lin Yuelan suspiciously and said with a strange expression,” Speaking of which, Princess Guguo, this is your fault. Everyone in the world knows that you, the princess of Guguo, are very rich. Why must you deduct their salary and not give it to them?”
However, when he said this, he felt that something was wrong and immediately said,” Something’s wrong. They’re the subordinates of the Lin Group’s housing construction company. Why would they ask you for wages? Also, what did Great General mean when he said ‘repay kindness with ingratitude’ just now?”
Lin Yuelan remained calm and composed even though the main point was pointed out.
She did not answer Prince Ping’s question for the time being. Instead, she walked towards Boss Hu and the others and asked with a stern and sharp expression,” Boss Hu, I, Lin Yuelan, have never mistreated you. Why are you doing this now? And on the day of my wedding.”
Second Brother Hu’s face was purple. His eyes were glowing with anger, but he could only make muffled sounds. Boss Hu and the other three brothers looked ashamed. They kowtowed to Lin Yuelan and apologized,” I’m sorry, Princess. We… We were blinded by him and almost hurt the princess. We brothers do not expect Princess to forgive us, but we still hope that Princess can forgive us. Otherwise, we brothers will never be able to live with our conscience!”
As they spoke, the four of them kept kowtowing, begging for forgiveness.
However, Lin Yuelan remained indifferent.
She sighed softly, and then her expression changed, becoming fierce and dignified.
She said coldly,” Old Hu, I remember that I told you before that I would only use people I suspect. If you’re disloyal once, I won’t use you again! From now on, you’re no longer part of the Lin Group’s housing construction company, and you’re no longer my subordinates!”
As soon as Lin Yuelan finished speaking, the entire place fell silent!
Therefore, no one would have thought that the Lin Real Estate Construction Company belonged to Princess Lin Yuelan.
Apart from the surrounding commoners, even the Crown Prince and Empress were shocked.
They obviously couldn’t believe it and were in shock.
When they heard that Lin Yue Pavilion was Lin Yuelan’s property, they were extremely surprised. However, before they could react to the truth, they heard that Lin’s housing company was also Lin Yuelan’s property.
The Lin family’s housing construction company was a team that specialized in helping people build houses.
However, the houses built by this company were the same as Linyue Pavilion. They were trendy, beautiful, and very sturdy. Most importantly, they could build high floors. Standing on the highest floor and looking down, they could see the entire capital.
These nobles wanted this feeling of being in control.
However, building a house was not like buying things in a shop. No matter how expensive it was, as long as one had money, they could buy it. There was a certain amount of attention paid to it. Moreover, the cost of building a house was not something that a private custom-made item from Lin Yue Pavilion could compare to. It was a sky-high cost. The lowest was 50,000 taels of silver, and the highest was hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
Such expenses were not something that ordinary wealthy families could afford.
