The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich Chapter 1856: Why

Chapter 1856: Why

Lin Yuelan continued,” You get paid for your work, and you also get dividends. Why aren’t you satisfied? Do you want me to transfer the shop to you five brothers for free?”

Lin Yuelan’s few simple sentences were unusually sharp as she went straight for Second Brother Hu.

As soon as Lin Yuelan finished speaking, the entire place fell silent. Then, it was in an uproar. The surrounding people were all whispering and discussing.

“Strange, just now, this Second Elder Hu said that the princess of the Guguo mistreated them and felt that this little amount of money was very unfair. However, when Princess Gu calculated the accounts, how could she have mistreated them? She clearly gave them what they should have. She gave them everything and did not deduct anything!”

“Yes, that’s right. Their salary is fifty taels a month, but their bonus is tens of thousands of taels. The five of them add up to more than 200,000 taels, but it’s thousands of times that of ordinary people like us. It might be money that we can’t earn in our lifetime, but they get a year’s bonus. What else do they want?”

“So, how is this unfair?” At this point, he looked at the people behind the five Hu brothers and said,” If you want to say that it’s unfair, then those people will think it’s unfair, right? For a person to not be paid for three months for no reason, if his family is not sick or injured, it’s obvious that something is wrong.”

“Yes, that’s right!” He had a foreign accent.

Could Boss Hu and the others hear the discussions surrounding them?

Of course, they could hear it.

Therefore, they felt even more guilty.

They had never been educated before, but as people who were born into a craftsman’s family, they still had a certain level of mathematical ability. Moreover, after Lin Yuelan invented those Arabic numbers and the Pinyin alphabet, Lin Yuelan would arrange for her uneducated subordinates to learn arithmetic.

They were also instructed to learn how to read and calculate.

Therefore, it was easy to tell whether Lin Yuelan would give him more or less.

They knew that not only did Lin Yuelan not deduct a tael of silver from them, but she also took care of them and their families from time to time.

However…

Thinking of this, Boss Hu and the others shed tears of regret.

They should never be greedy.

Just because he wanted to get an official position for himself, he betrayed his conscience.

These people were right. They were ungrateful wolves.

“Shut up!” Noticing that everyone was siding with Lin Yuelan, Second Brother Hu became anxious. He could not help but shout,” What do you know? You don’t know anything. Hmph, did you really think that she didn’t deduct it just because she said so? That’s right, the dividends of the five of us combined are indeed more than 200,000 taels, but how do you know how much money we’ve earned for her? It’s more than 10 million taels, and that’s just a year.

“Tell me, if you want to compare 200,000 taels to 10,000,000 taels, what is the difference? Therefore, she, the princess of the Guguo, must have embezzled our money.” Second Brother Hu had always thought that the money they had gotten was too little.

“So you mean that you want me to hand over the Lin family’s housing company to you brothers, to be fair?” Lin Yuelan said lightly.

However, anyone with a discerning eye would think that this was impossible.

Unexpectedly, Second Brother Hu’s eyes lit up, and he said excitedly,” Is what you said true?”

Everyone was speechless.

Was this person a fool or a lunatic?

He believes the words of the princess of Guguo.

Lin Jinmei, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn’t stand it anymore. Her face was red with anger, and one of her hands was trembling because of her excessive anger. She pointed at Second Brother Hu, and her eyes were spewing anger as she said,” Second Brother Hu, you really know how to dream!”

Second Brother Hu retorted fiercely,” Why? What is the reason why the Lin Group’s housing construction company has today’s reputation? Isn’t it because of us five brothers working hard to build houses for every customer? If it weren’t for the five of us, the Lin family’s housing construction company would not be as glorious as it is today.”

At this point, he continued shamelessly,” All these years, the five of us have created tens of millions of taels of money for the Lin Group’s real estate company. At the same time, as the boss of the Lin Group’s real estate company, Princess Guguo has also earned tens of millions of taels of silver. Therefore, it’s only natural that the Lin Group’s housing construction company will be transferred to us five brothers for free, right?”

” I’ve seen shameless and thick-skinned people, but I’ve never seen anyone as shameless and thick-skinned as you!” When Lin Jinmei heard his shameless behaviour, she was really furious.

She didn’t expect that the usually quiet and honest person would really amaze everyone with such greedy and shameless ideas.

After Lin Jinmei finished scolding, she continued,” According to what you’re saying, after every merchant boss earns a sum of money, they have to transfer the business in their hands to their employees who contributed the most. If that was really the case, how could there still be a merchant in this world? It was better to say that these merchant bosses were some people’s money bank. If that was the case, who would dare to be a merchant? Who would dare to be a boss? Without a merchant, how could there be a business in this world? Without business, will this country or the world still develop?”

Lin Jinmei had gone from a transfer issue to a serious issue like the development of the world.

After everyone heard Lin Jinmei’s words, they began to discuss again.

“Exactly. No matter how great your contribution is and how much profit you have created for the shop, you can’t take someone else’s shop for yourself.”

“That’s right. The brothers had earned a lot of money for the shop and worked hard to make the shop famous. However, the boss had not mistreated them, right? If we use this reason to force the boss to give him his business, won’t every owner lose their business in the future?”

“They are the workers of the shop. Isn’t the ultimate goal of working for the boss to maximize the benefits for the boss? Oh, they made a lot of money for their boss, so they asked their boss to give them the shop? This is simply a robbery!”

“That’s right, this is the act of a bandit!”

More and more people agreed that this behaviour was the behaviour of bandits.

When Second Brother Hu heard what the crowd said, his imposing manner suddenly became a little shrivelled. His face turned a little pale as he said,” That’s not what I meant. That’s not what I meant…”

He was panicking and afraid.

He had something to rely on, but he wasn’t really stupid.

If it were just one or two people who said that they were robbers, he would not care at all.

However, gradually, more and more people started to agree with this sentiment. He could not help but be indifferent.

That was because he had the emperor, empress, and crown prince in front of him.

As long as the emperor was certain of their bandit behaviour and they had offended the princess of Guguo, Lin Yuelan, their fate could be imagined.

Second Brother Hu immediately kowtowed in front of the Emperor and said,” Your Majesty, you have clearly investigated. This commoner doesn’t mean that.”

The Emperor sneered.” If that’s not what you mean, then what do you mean?”

At this point, he did not wait for Second Brother Hu to respond. He immediately snorted coldly and said in a very dignified manner,” Hmph, a small and unruly person actually wants to forcefully occupy Princess Gu’s shop. If that’s not robbery, then what kind of behaviour is it? Why don’t you tell me?”

” Girl, it seems like today’s show is targeted at you.” After the Emperor scolded Second Brother Hu, he turned around and said to Lin Yuelan in a half-joking and half-serious tone,” But, what do you have to say to me?”

Seeing that the Emperor wanted to avoid the important matter and dwell on the trivial, there were a few people present. Some were happy, but some were equally dissatisfied.

Prince Ping stood up and said,” Your Majesty, Princess Gu has committed the crime of ‘deceiving her superiors and subordinates’ and deceiving the emperor. Moreover, there are witnesses and evidence. According to the laws of the current dynasty, it is completely possible…” He wanted to send Lin Yuelan to the Ministry of Justice’s prison and wait for the investigation.

However, before he could finish speaking, the Emperor raised his hand to stop him from continuing. Then, he shot him a cold gaze and said sternly,” Old Seventh, you don’t have to tell me what to do!”

Prince Ping’s face turned pale, and his lips trembled in fear. Then, he returned to normal and knelt down to kowtow to the Emperor.” I know I was wrong!”

The Emperor did not make things difficult for him. He said sternly,” Get up!”

Then, he looked at Lin Yuelan with his sharp eyes.

Lin Yuelan said calmly,” Your Majesty, I will give you an explanation for this!”

The Emperor nodded and said,” Seeing that today is your wedding day, I’ll extend you one day. At that time, I hope you can give me a good explanation!”

Hearing the Emperor’s words, the Empress and the others’ tense nerves instantly relaxed, and their faces relaxed.

However, the others were the opposite. A monstrous anger surged in their hearts.

The Emperor continued,” Girl, the Empress and I will return to the palace first. The poisoning of the Crown Princess and the demand for wages from these workers are all related to you. I will order the Crown Prince to be in charge of the investigation while you and the two princes will a.s.sist from the side!”

“Yes, sir!”

“Your son will obey!”

“Your Majesty, you must not!”

Three voices from four people rang out at the same time.

When the Emperor heard the voices of the two princes and the others, he shouted with a solemn and dignified expression,” Could it be that you want to defy the imperial edict?”

At this moment, the objections instantly disappeared.
