Chapter 1078: Choose to Return It to Its Owner!
Translator: Lonelytree
However, he had sent people to keep an eye on the Chen family and Lin’s Medicine, but they had not found any trace of her.
Zhou Anping thought for a moment and ordered his subordinates, ” Go to Lin’s Medicine hall and find out if their Young Miss has returned.
The subordinate immediately replied, ” Yes, Sir! ”
After the subordinates left, the butler looked worried. He said to Zhou Anping worriedly, ” Sir, Lin Yuelan saved your life after all. If we use the Chen family like this and set her up, won’t it damage your reputation?”
When Zhou Anping heard the butler’s words, he said unhappily, ” Butler, have I ever set Lin Yuelan up? ‘
He had only hinted at things, but he had not openly plotted against Lin Yuelan personally. No one would be able to find any evidence against him.
‘ Besides, Lin Yuelan is just a peasant girl with no background. Do I need to care about her? ” Zhou Anping said in a deep voice, ” Besides, so what if Lin’s Medicine Store’s reputation in Qing Feng City is great? If this
Governor-General really wanted Lin’s medicine hall to disappear from Qing Feng City, could a commoner like her fight against this governor? Moreover, this governor has never touched Lin’s Medicine Store. What this governor wants is just a small auction house!”
There were no outsiders here, so Zhou Anping did not hesitate to reveal his
purpose.
As for why Zhou Anping wanted the Gold Origin Auction House?
It was actually very simple. The profits of the auction house were very high.
Especially in the past two months, the Gold Origin Auction House had auctioned off items that were extremely valuable. Moreover, they were all rare treasures and fine goods. The profits were naturally very considerable.
This caused Zhou Xingfa of the Guang Ju Yuan Auction House to be jealous.
Although Zhou Anping still hated Zhou Xingfa for abandoning him when he was imprisoned, there were no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interests.
After Zhou Xingfa found out about Zhou Anping’s knot in his heart, he secretly sent a lot of money and treasures to Zhou Anping as an apology. Only then did Zhou Anping finally let go of his anger and forgive him.
After that, Zhou Xingfa and Zhou Anping resumed contact.
After learning that the Gold Origin Auction House had suddenly become popular overnight, Zhou Xingfa was definitely jealous.
He then learned from Zhou Anping’s trusted aide that there was a feud between Chen Shanbiao and Zhou Anping. He immediately came up with a plan and continuously whispered into Zhou Anping’s ears.
Zhou Xingfa might not have known that the Gold Origin Auction House had changed owners, but Zhou Anping was well aware.
At first, he was apprehensive about Lin Yuelan’s medical skills and methods. Later on, after he found out that she was just a peasant girl, the grievance in his heart against Lin Yuelan burst out at once.
Later on, he thought of this plan to kill two birds with one stone.
However, he knew very well that he couldn’t go after Lin’s Medicine Hall. After all, after he took down Lin Yuelan, Lin’s Medicine Hall would die off on its own.
Hence, his target was the Gold Origin Auction House.
Hearing his master say this, the butler seemed to be a little relaxed on the surface, but he was still very worried and uneasy.
He still remembered that when Lin Yuelan came to the governor’s manor, she did not give any face to Governor Zhou at all. Instead, she gave them a three-day reprimand.
Three days later, it was only when someone from the Zhou Manor personally came to apologize that she agreed to treat his lord.
She had also added a condition to her treatment, which was to ask his lord to forgive Chen Shanbiao.
At that time, his lord had no choice but to agree.
However, in just two to three months, the anger in his lord’s heart was provoked and immediately erupted.
He had once advised his lord, but his lord did not listen.
He could only hope that Lin Yuelan was really just a peasant girl without any background. She could only suffer this loss.
The butler sighed with a heavy heart!
On the other side, after Li Baoquan heard Chen Shanbiao’s decision, his hand that was holding the teacup instantly tightened.
Then, he put down the cup and asked with an urgent expression, ” Uncle Chen, it seems like you’ve thought it through! ‘
Chen Shanbiao said coldly, ” Of course! ‘
“Then what is your reply?” His voice became even more urgent as he clenched his fists tightly.
” My reply is, ” Chen Shanbiao’s voice sounded in the space. Then, he lowered his head slightly and took out something from his sleeve.. He said directly, “I’ll return this to its owner! ‘
