The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

"After this official's righteous and solemn statement, Qingfeng Village has agreed to cancel the looting plan at the end of the month!"

"I also propose to strengthen exchanges with you all, to jointly build Yangzhou's prosperity and maintain regional stability!"

As soon as these words were spoken, people who had been waiting for a long time began to ask questions.

"Master Lin, how can we cooperate on this?"

"Yes! Yes! Lord Lin, what did Qingfeng Village say?"

"Master Lin..."

Li Kui shouted angrily.

"How dare you! What kind of cooperation? As Yangzhou gentry and merchants, how can you openly cooperate with a bunch of bandits in front of us Yangzhou officials?"

Li Kui, the Yangzhou prefect, suddenly went berserk.

Everyone was startled by Li Kui's voice and didn't understand what was going on with him.

After all, it was he who proposed adding a dowry to Lin Ruhai's only daughter!

Lin Ruhai was also slightly stunned and looked at Li Kui in confusion.

Li Kui said seriously,

"We are the dignified officials and gentry of Yangzhou. How can we cooperate with bandits?"

Many people lowered their heads, and even Lin Ruhai frowned.

But he heard Li Kui scolding everyone sternly,

"That's because Lord Lin and I have a good way of raising the people. Even the bandits are willing to be educated!"

'Plop', 'Plop',

In an instant, countless people fell under the table.

After saying that, Li Kui smiled and bowed to Lin Ruhai.

"Lord Lin is truly dedicated and can even educate a bandit. I admire you! Please continue!"

Lin Ruhai's face twitched. He was indeed worthy of being the prefect of Yangzhou. He was still far from it!

He nodded and continued to speak to everyone,

"After my instruction, the people of Qingfeng Village presented this item as a token of their sincerity!"

As he said this, he winked at Uncle Lin beside him.

Uncle Lin nodded slightly, turned around, stretched out his hands, and clapped three times in a row.

Suddenly, dozens of maids, carrying plates covered with red cloth, walked into the banquet hall one by one and stood beside each table.

Everyone was looking at the plate covered with red cloth, wondering what it was.

Lin Ruhai saw it and nodded secretly in his heart.

He thought that Qingfeng Li was really good at keeping people in suspense.

This immediately aroused the curiosity of many people.

Li Kui looked at the plate held by the maid who was very close to him.

He hurriedly looked at Lin Ruhai and bowed,

"Master Lin, I wonder what this is?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials and businessmen present looked at Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai stroked his beard with a smile and said slowly and confidently,

"Since you are all curious, I won't keep you in suspense."

Saying this, he waved his hand.

The maids pulled the red cloth off the plate.

I saw a red wooden box on a tray.

Li Kui was so angry that he almost cursed.

This Lin Ruhai, is actually playing tricks on us like this?

If it weren't for the sake of Qingfeng Village, it would be a good thing that he didn't just walk away in anger!

Looking at Li Kui's eyes that were about to burst into flames, Lin Ruhai smiled slightly.

He gave orders to the maids,

"Open!"

Upon hearing this, the maids stretched out their delicate hands.

Open the box in front of everyone.

Placed on every table.

With a clatter, everyone stood up and looked curiously into the boxes on their desks.

Everyone wants to see what Qingfeng Village can come up with.

When everyone saw the white things in the box,

They were all confused or surprised.

"Frosted sugar?"

"No, no, how can this be frosting? It doesn't look like it!"

"Yeah! How can frosting sugar have such fine particles?"

Someone curiously reached out and pinched a handful and put it in his mouth to taste it.

He immediately spat out and exclaimed in surprise.

"Salt!! Is this table salt?!"

"What? Salt?"

"How is this possible? Where in the world is there such white salt?"

Many people took action and picked up a few grains and put them in their mouths to taste.

Their eyes lit up and their faces showed surprise and joy.

“It’s really salt!”

"That's right! I never thought there would be such exquisite, snow-white salt with such a great taste in the world!"
