Chapter 211 God of Wealth
"That’s because he transferred the land to his name, so this land deed has been voided. He took the new land deed that has already been recorded at the Government Office and returned this old one to you! It’s just that the land was never sold, so none of us knew!" Wang Yongzhu explained.
"This damned beast! How did I ever give birth to such a brain-chopping bastard? I should never have allowed him to study in the first place. Reading books has filled his belly with cunning, a belly full of malice, and he uses it all against his own family. He’s not human, he’s worse than a beast!" Old Granny Zhang wailed loudly.
The muscles on Wang Laozhu’s face twitched, and he tried to open his mouth to say something but couldn’t, his face turning crimson with frustration.
Wang Yongzhu hastily shared the arrangements she had made with the Escort Agency with Wang Laozhu, and only then did he slowly calm down, looking eagerly at Wang Yongzhu.
Wang Yongzhu speculated about Wang Laozhu’s thoughts, "Currently, no one knows where exactly Prefect Gao will be taking office next, as there has been no official report yet. However, since Tianfeng Escort Agency has taken on this business, they travel everywhere and are well-informed. They will surely be able to find out. As long as the message I spoke of reaches Prefect Gao and that Master’s ears, it might be that nothing happens in a day or two, but given his character, he certainly won’t be content with long being subordinate. Over time, he will surely seek ways to climb higher, and once he makes his move, that Master will probably start to worry."
Wang Laozhu blinked his eyes, nodding with difficulty to indicate that he understood.
Only then did Wang Yongzhu continue, "In the officialdom, the higher one climbs, the more tragic the fall! As for our second brother, even if we catch him now and get the silver back, as long as he finds an opportunity, he will do the same thing again, and next time, I fear he will be more secretive and more vicious! So, it’s better to let him be smug for now, until either Prefect Gao or the Master makes a move. In the world of officials, it’s a matter of life and death. Once they act, our second brother will have no chance to turn things around! Father, don’t you think so?"
Wang Laozhu looked at Wang Yongzhu with a very complex gaze, staring at her intently.
Wang Yongzhu also calmly met Wang Laozhu’s gaze and after a long while, Wang Laozhu finally closed his eyes, giving an almost imperceptible nod, agreeing to Wang Yongzhu’s strategy.
