Chapter 428 Escape
Chapter 428 Escape
"The shadow guard came to report just now that Lin San from the book printing shop sneaked into Lin Huai's bedroom while Lin Huai was leaving." Yun Mengxi said, pursing her lips.
"Did Lin Huai not lock the door?" Chu Zhuang showed a surprised expression.
Lin Huai's temper was very cautious, he hadn't let go of his guard against those three people, and it was impossible for him not to lock the door when he came out to report to him.
"It's locked, but I didn't expect this kid to be able to pick it!" Yunmengxi said angrily.
Who would have expected that a small apprentice carpenter would do such a trick?
"This Lin San!"
Chu Zhuang frowned. Originally, he planned to transfer Lin San out of the book printing house, but he didn't think about how to punish him. After all, it was just a little cautious, so it would be good not to let him stay in the book house .
But now that something like this has happened, the nature has changed.
"What did he steal?" Chu Zhuang asked.
This is what Chu Zhuang is most concerned about right now.
"I ransacked everything in the room, stole a few models of typefaces, and Lin Huai's money, and slipped out through the back door. The shadow guard wanted to see if there was someone behind him, so he didn't do anything for the time being. , just follow behind him." Yunmengxi said immediately.
"Print type?"
Chu Zhuang squinted his eyes. If he got the typeface, it would only be a matter of time before he could find the raw materials.
It seems that during this period of time, Lin San has also discovered the benefits of their movable type printing, so this is planning to steal the technology and do it himself?
He didn't even think about it, Chuzhuang's things are so easy to get!
"Let Dali go to the book printing house!" Chu Zhuang said after thinking for a while.
When Lin Huai found out that Lin San had run away, he would definitely go after him, so he asked Bai Dali to stop Lin Huai.
When Bai Dali drove the carriage to the printing house, Lin Huai had already returned, and also found that the room was stolen, and was furious in the yard.
Although Lin Huai is an honest person, it is very scary for an honest person to get angry.
"Where are the three Lin?!" Lin Huai looked at Lin Da sullenly, and Lin Er asked.
He was naturally the clearest about what was missing in the room.
Lin Huai didn't care about money or anything, what he cared about was the few type models locked in the cabinet!
If that thing is lost, what face does he have to explain to Chu Zhuang!
Lin Da and Lin Er knelt in the yard and shivered, and said with a bitter face: "Master, we don't know. Lin San said that he had a stomachache and went to the latrine. Who knew he would run into the master's room?" go."
"We noticed something was wrong, and when we came out to check, we found that Lin San had already run away!"
Lin Da and Lin Er scolded Lin San bloody in their hearts.
They don't care about other things, but Lin San went too far this time.
He stole something, but he just walked away, but it was the two of them who had to bear the responsibility!
"Where did people go?!"
Lin Huai wanted to lead someone to chase Lin San before he ran far away, but he saw the familiar carriage stopped at the door, and Chu Zhuang and Yunmengxi got off the carriage.
"Dali..." Lin Huai was stunned when he saw the two of them. He didn't expect to see Bai Dali at this time.
"Dali, you came at the right time. Lin San stole something and ran away. You drove me to the gate of the city to block people in a carriage!"
Lin Huai came back to his senses, and immediately took Bai Dali's hand to go out of the city to block people.
"No need, the young master has already sent someone to arrest him." Bai Dali shook his head and said.
Chu Zhuang asked him to come here to prevent Lin Huai from going out to find someone.
"Ah?" Lin Huai showed a surprised look.
How did Chu Zhuang know?
But Bai Dali didn't explain it, that is to say, Chu Zhuang didn't intend to explain it, so Lin Huai could only suppress the doubts in his heart.
……
In the evening, Yingmu brought the knocked out Lin San to Chu Zhuang.
"Young master, Young Master Chu, this person left the city immediately after stealing something, and then went south, during which time he didn't have any contact with other people." Yingmu said truthfully.
Chu Zhuang nodded, that is to say, Lin San did not collude with other people, but purely for money, so he stole things and ran away.
Of course, as an apprentice in the book printing workshop, he must know the benefits of lead printing, so he brought the fonts with him.
Yunmengxi looked at Lin San who was unconscious on the ground, and snorted coldly, what he hates most is this kind of deserted person!
He brought a stream of cold water from the side, and poured it directly on Lin San.
"what!"
It's already winter now, and Lin Santon will wake up with such a bucket of cold water.
"I……"
Lin San looked at everything in front of him in a daze, his eyes were full of confusion, obviously at this time he hadn't recovered yet.
"Young Master Chu?"
When seeing Chu Zhuang's calm face, the consciousness in Lin San's mind gradually returned.
He remembered what happened before he fell into a coma.
At that time, he escaped from Dongfeng Mansion, and when he was full of joy, he suddenly felt a pain in the back of his head, and he fell into a coma.
Seeing the unpacked baggage in Chuzhuang, Lin San's heart tightened, and he understood his current situation.
"Your contract of selling your life is still on me, stealing and running away, according to the law, it is a capital offense for you." Chu Zhuang looked at Lin San indifferently and said.
"I, I, I..."
Lin San swallowed his saliva, his eyes filled with fear, he knelt on the ground and begged Chu Zhuang for mercy: "Master Chu, I know I was wrong, I didn't mean it, I just, just..."
Lin San thought for a long time but couldn't think of any reason to find an excuse for his theft this time.
After all, there is no reason, just greed.
He is a clerk in the book printing house, so he naturally knows how powerful Chuzhuang's movable type printing is. If he starts printing for business, he will definitely hang up other book printing houses.
If he mastered this kind of technology, even if he doesn't do business in the printing house, he can get a lot of money just by selling this technology.
It's just a pity that Lin Huai watched closely on weekdays, and only today when he went to report to Chu Zhuang did Lin San find an opportunity to break into Lin Huai's room and steal the fonts.
As for the money that Lin Huai had accumulated in the cabinet, it was just a surprise, and it was just a matter of chance.
Everything was going well, and he was even out of Dongfeng Mansion, but he was knocked out when he was about to flex his muscles.
Even when he woke up, he saw Chuzhuang and Yunmengxi.
"Just what?" Chu Zhuang raised his eyes, looked at Lin San indifferently and asked.
"I, I... Mr. Chu, I really know I was wrong, I will never dare again, please forgive me this time!"
Lin San's heart was cold. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously to Chu Zhuang, hoping that he could bypass him this time.
"Such a person should be sent to the government and sentenced according to the law!" Yunmengxi said angrily.
This movable type printing technique is very important to them, if Lin San leaks it out like this, then all their long-planned plans will be ruined!
Hearing that Yunmengxi said that he was going to be sent to an official, Lin San trembled from fright, and kowtowed even harder.
"What does the sender do?"
Chu Zhuang held Yunmengxi's hand, and squeezed his palm lightly to make him not to be angry.
These things were within their expectations.
People's hearts are unpredictable, and the members of University Lin are all grown men, and their minds must not be as pure as those of Ono and the others.
Otherwise they would not have prepared well in advance.
"Could it be possible to let him go like this? That's too cheap for him!" Yun Mengxi frowned and said displeasedly.
He hated betrayal people the most in his life. Lin San could tolerate cheating, raping and cheating, but he really couldn't bear the things he was doing now.
"Send him off, he's dead!" Chu Zhuang said with raised eyebrows.
Yunmengxi snorted coldly, it would not be a pity for a person like Lin San to die!
"Young Master Chu, please spare my life, and I will be like a cow in the future to repay the kindness of Young Master Chu!"
When Lin San heard Chu Zhuang's words, he thought that his heart was soft, and he was happy in his heart, and kowtowed even harder.
"Okay, stop knocking, what should I do if it breaks? Get up!" Chu Zhuang said looking at Lin San.
Yunmengxi looked at Chu Zhuang suspiciously, not understanding why he treated Lin San so favorably.
Although Chu Zhuang has a kind heart, he is not such a person who will show kindness to everyone casually!
"Yes! Thank you, Mr. Chu!"
Lin San was overjoyed, and got up from the ground numbly.
Looking at Chu Zhuang's tender face, he only thought that he was kind-hearted, so he didn't care about him.
Lin San's eyes rolled straight away, no longer worried about punishment, and his mind suddenly became alive.
This time, after he went back, he had to be honest for a while to let them relax their vigilance, and wait until they trusted him again, and then find a chance to steal the font!
He is so smart, but he is not reconciled to just being a junior apprentice!
If he obtains this font and develops this craft, then he will definitely become a rich man because of it!
"Just now you said that you would pay me back like a bull or a horse, is this true or not?" Chu Zhuang looked at Lin San and asked with a smile.
Seeing the smile on Chu Zhuang's face, Yunmengxi raised an eyebrow.
This is Chu Zhuang, ready to attack Lin San?
"Of course it's true. The little Lin San is willing to be a dog next to Mr. Chu. Wherever you say the little one should bark! The little one can bark!" Lin San licked his face and said to Chu Zhuang without any bottom line. compliments.
"You don't need to be a dog, just be a cow."
Chu Zhuang's eyes were cold, and there was no warmth in his voice.
Lin San was pretty good at covering it up before, if he had known his temperament earlier, Chu Zhuang would not have kept him in the first place.
"Cattle?"
Lin San looked at Chu Zhuang in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
"The workshop is short of manpower right now. Since Lin San is so loyal, let him dig clay there!" Chu Zhuang said with a sneer.
Lin San's contract of selling his life was in his hands, and Lin San was asked to dig the soil without even thinking about paying him wages.
"Dig the soil?" A smile flashed across Yunmengxi's eyes.
That's hard work!
