Therefore, no matter how he thought about it, it didn’t seem right!

They wanted to go back, but the people in front of them, other than the Crown Prince, the Princess of Guguo herself, the Emperor, and the Empress, made them all scared out of their wits. How could they dare to make a move?

Later on, they felt that something was wrong. They didn’t want to ask for money now. They wanted to leave, but they didn’t have the courage to do so until Lin Jinmei arrived.

Only then did they explain the reason why they had followed them here to ask for the salary.

As soon as Zhu Zi finished speaking, the others also said, “Boss, we are in the same situation as Zhu Zi. We didn’t get our salary for three months, but our family had an emergency during that time, and we urgently needed money. A few days ago, Second Director Hu told us that as long as we follow them to ask for our salary, not only can we get back the money we owe for three months, but we might also get some additional compensation, so I… We’re all here.”

After saying that, these people kowtowed guiltily and said,”I’m sorry, boss. We… We didn’t mean it!”

Hearing the voices of these workers, Boss Hu and the others looked embarrassed. Their faces turned green and white. They were embarrassed and afraid.

Not to mention how furious Lin Jinmei was, even the surrounding people felt that something was wrong when they heard this.

It didn’t seem like these people didn’t get paid at all, but their wages seemed to be in someone else’s hands.

Lin Jinmei took a deep breath and immediately questioned sternly again,” Third Brother Hu, what’s going on? I’m the one who gave you the money every month and asked you to pay them. Why haven’t these workers received their wages for three months?”

Among the five brothers, Boss Hu was in charge of the entire project, Third Brother Hu was in charge of the team’s financial distribution, and the others helped to supervise the project.

Now, it was obvious that Third Brother Hu had a problem.

Third Brother Hu’s face was red from Lin Jinzimei’s questioning, but his expression was flustered and uneasy. He stuttered,” I… I…”

In fact, the money was stolen by Second Brother Hu and used up in gambling.

They had forgiven him the first time he had been stolen. After all, he was their brother, and they could not just watch him be punished and fired.

According to the rules and regulations set by Lin Yuelan, Second Brother Hu’s mistake could not be forgiven at all. He would only end up being fired.

The second time the workers ‘wages were stolen, Second Brother Hu knelt in front of them and cried bitterly. He said that he owed a large debt in the gambling den. If he did not pay it back on time, those people would cut off his hand.

Therefore, the brothers chose to forgive and hide it again.

However, the third time, Second Brother Hu’s previous regret was replaced by happiness and pride.

After that, he told them that they could become high-ranking officials in the future. They only needed to do one thing. After this was successful, they could all become officials.

Previously, he had stolen silver and refused to pay these workers. In fact, he had a motive for this.

When they asked what he was going to do, they were stunned by the answer.

They had never thought that if they wanted to become officials, they would have to fight with the princess of the Guguo.

This was equivalent to betrayal.

The brothers disagreed, but Second Brother Hu said unwillingly,” Big Brother, are we going to be under someone else and listen to the orders of two women? Alright, even if we obey their orders like slaves, what about the descendants of our Hu Clan? Are they going to be like us, becoming someone else’s slave, doing some hard work, and never being able to make a name for themselves? Big brother, third brother, think of the life of a high official. After becoming an official, we can return home in glory and let our Hu family shine. I believe the ancestors of the Hu family will be pleased!”

Hearing Second Brother Hu’s words, Boss Hu and the others didn’t quite believe it and revealed suspicious expressions.

Boss Hu asked sternly,” Second Brother, who made you this promise? Don’t be deceived by others. We can’t afford to offend Lin Yuelan.”

Second Brother Hu pursed his lips and said casually,” Big Brother, although that person did not reveal his identity, he showed me a token. It’s a token unique to the palace. A token in the palace is something that an ordinary person can have. It must be the identity of a noble.”

At this point, he paused for a moment and said angrily,” Big Brother, what are you hesitating about? All these years, Lin Yuelan has relied on our craftsmanship to earn a lot of money. She must have earned at least ten million taels. But how much did she give us? The money of the five of us, added together, is only a few tens of thousands of taels. Compared to the money that Lin Yuelan has earned, it’s nothing. Since she has stolen our money, there’s nothing wrong with us doing this. We didn’t let her down. We just wanted to make it even!”

In the end, the other brothers were persuaded by Second Brother Hu.

What moved them was nothing more than power and money!

Under the planning of the person behind the scenes, they imagined the future to be very beautiful.

However, when they knelt in front of the crown prince’s residence and saw the Emperor, the Empress and Lin Yuelan, they secretly regretted their actions.

However, at this moment, they had no way to retreat!

When they brought a group of workers, held up signs, knelt in front of the Crown Prince’s residence, and begged Lin Yuelan for her salary, it meant that they had betrayed Lin Yuelan.

However, under Jiang Zhennan’s stern and sonorous questioning, they felt even more regretful, guilty, and ashamed.
