In all family affairs, not only the eldest brother Lin Yutang bears important responsibilities, but Mr. Lin, the second brother Lin Yuheng and the youngest brother Lin Yuchen also each share different duties in the family to ensure the smooth operation and prosperity of the family.

Master Lin Zhengde is the core figure of the family, responsible for overall strategic planning and decision-making. His duties mainly include overall coordination of family affairs, external relations and negotiations, and crisis management. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the social hierarchy was clear. As the helmsman of the family, Master Lin maintained contact with important external figures, participated in major negotiations and agreements, and ensured the family's position in the social and business circles. When the family faced a major crisis, he was responsible for formulating response strategies to ensure that the family could successfully overcome the difficulties.

Lin Yuheng was smart and resourceful, good at strategy and management, and was responsible for the family's internal affairs and operations. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, when handicrafts and commerce were prosperous, Lin Yuheng was mainly responsible for the daily operations of the textile workshops, ensuring the quality and production efficiency of the products. He was also responsible for the family's financial supervision and auditing, ensuring the rational use and flow of every penny of funds. Lin Yuheng constantly sought new business opportunities and markets to promote the diversification and expansion of the family's business.

Although Lin Yuchen is unruly, he also has important responsibilities in the family. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, agriculture was the foundation of the economy. Lin Yuchen was mainly responsible for the management of the family's farmland to ensure efficient operation and good harvest. He was also responsible for the family's security and protection, forming and training the family's guard team to ensure the safety of family members and industries. In addition, Lin Yuchen also managed the family's logistics and transportation to ensure that products could be delivered to local markets in a timely manner to meet customer needs.

After Lin Ruowei came back from the old housekeeper, she began to recall the part about Lin Su that she had seen in the novel. In the novel, Lin Su has been trying to gain control of the family through improper means. He colluded with external businessmen and deliberately spread rumors in the market, causing a sharp drop in the sales of Lin's products. Lin Su used his position in the family to master many important business secrets, and then leaked them to external forces, causing the Lin family to be at a disadvantage in the competition. In order to further weaken the strength of the Lin family, Lin Su even secretly planned a series of sabotage activities, including destroying the family's textile workshops and farmland, creating internal conflicts, and splitting the unity of the family. He even resorted to conspiracy and trickery to frame loyal family members in order to achieve his goals.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruowei hurried to Lin Yutang's study and told her eldest brother the information the old housekeeper told her and the plot she saw in the novel. She just said that it was what the old housekeeper had investigated before, otherwise who would believe that she had traveled through the book? She didn't even know how to explain the term "traveling through the book".

Lin Yutang was also very surprised by this information, but after knowing the old housekeeper's concerns, he expressed his understanding. He just blamed himself for not being on guard against these so-called relatives in the past.

"Brother, Lin Su and the others have already started to act. We must take measures as soon as possible." Lin Ruowei said anxiously.

Lin Yutang frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Ruowei, you did a good job. We must find more evidence to completely expose their conspiracy."

In the next few days, Lin Ruowei and Lin Yutang closely followed Lin Su's movements. They found that Lin Su often came into contact with foreign merchants, especially in the dead of night, and his whereabouts became more suspicious. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, merchants' activities were usually carried out at night, especially those illegal transactions. Lin Ruowei decided to follow Lin Su personally to find more clues.

One night, Lin Ruowei disguised herself as an ordinary servant and quietly followed Lin Su. She saw Lin Su leave the Lin family's mansion and come to a hidden teahouse. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, teahouses were important places for merchants to gather and discuss business. Lin Ruowei found a hidden corner and observed Lin Su's movements.

In the teahouse, Lin Su was talking in low voices with several foreign merchants. Lin Ruowei moved as close as possible, trying to hear their conversation clearly.

"How is the family business going recently?" a businessman asked in a low voice.

Lin Su sneered: "Not good, this is our opportunity. As long as we continue to suppress them, we can control the entire market."

The other businessman nodded: "Okay, what should we do next?"

Lin Su pondered for a moment and said, "We need to find more internal intelligence and understand their movements. Only in this way can we further weaken their strength."

Hearing this, Lin Ruowei was shocked. She knew that Lin Su's conspiracy was more far-reaching than she had imagined. She had to tell her eldest brother Lin Yutang this information as soon as possible.

After returning to the Lin family, Lin Ruowei immediately found Lin Yutang and told him all the information she had heard.
