Since the girl said so, Lin Deshan was relieved.
He believed that with The White Tiger’s alertness, as long as there was someone nearby, it would definitely not be able to escape its ears.
Lin Deshan took something out of his pocket and opened it. It was a pile of silver notes.
Lin Yuelan was slightly surprised, but she quickly understood that the money was probably from selling the milkvetch.
She thought that it could sell for 10000 taels of silver, but looking at the thick stack of silver notes, he was afraid that it would be more than 30000 taels.

Lin Yuelan looked at the man who was playing a game with her. She raised her eyebrows and then stretched out her hand as if she was going to take the silver notes and count them.
“Hey, you can’t touch it,” said Lin Deshan, pressing the silver notes under his palm. “You can only guess by look alone.”
Lin Yuelan was speechless. To be honest, she really didn’t want to play this boring guessing game. However, looking at Lin Deshan’s excited face, she didn’t want to ruin his mood.
Lin Yuelan lowered her head to stare at the stack of banknotes. Lin Deshan pressed them down further.
Lin Yuelan helplessly shrugged her shoulders and then casually said, “let me guess. Yes, it should be 40000 taels.”
Lin Deshan, who had thought that the girl would never be able to guess it, was stunned. “Ah …” She actually guessed it right on the first try. How could she be so lucky?
Seeing that Lin Deshan didn’t respond, Lin Yuelan asked curiously, “Uncle Lin, why aren’t you saying anything? Did I guess wrong?”
Lin Deshan took his hand away and shook his head. “No, you got it right on the first try.”
Lin Yuelan’s eyes lit up, and with an excited and happy expression, she said loudly, “Uncle Lin, are you serious? Is there really 40000 taels?”
Hearing Lin Yuelan speak so loudly, Lin Deshan immediately said nervously, “shush, lower your voice. Girl, are you trying to attract thieves to your house?” 40,000 taels was definitely not a small amount. If some bad people heard this, they might do something like killing and robbing.
Lin yuelan touched the tip of her nose in embarrassment, “I got excited and raised my voice.”

After all, she had thought that she could sell the milkvetch for at most 10000 taels of silver in Ning An Town. However, when Lin Deshan offered to bring it to an auction house, Lin Yuelan predicted that the price would be around 30000 taels of silver. She didn’t expect Lin Deshan to get it sold for 40000 taels, which was 10000 more than she predicted.
Lin Deshan had done well.
After joking around with Lin Yuelan for a while, Lin Deshan immediately said seriously, “little girl, this milkvetch flower was sold directly to the Guangjuyuan auction house in the provincial capital. The shopkeeper of the auction house is an acquaintance of mine, so I managed to get 40000 taels for this item. However,” Lin Deshan said in a serious tone, “you should know that we may have long-term cooperation with them in the future. So, other than giving me face, the person is more concerned about the benefits of the future cooperation.”
This was to tell Lin Yuelan that the price of 40000 taels was actually a favor from the auction house. The auction house had made a huge profit. But they had also made a promise that they would secretly stop the other forces from investigating the source of the milkvetch.
Lin Deshan believed that Lin Yuelan was a smart person and would understand his words.
When Lin Yuelan heard this, she said very seriously, “there’s no problem with future cooperation. But we need cooperation from both sides. Like I said, for now, I can’t expose my identity. But when I can, I might not sell but auction off the treasures instead. There’s no problem with that, right?”
