Chapter 283: Temptation

Under the cover of night, Qin Lin came to Jiang's mansion alone for a banquet.

The Jiang clan did enough superficial work, and seemed to have shown sincerity in arranging for two Jiang elders and a group of disciples to wait outside the mansion gate.

Qin Lin came on horseback, and before he got off the horse, the elder had already stepped forward and said with a smile on his face: "The hero is a young man, and Qin Gongzi is really young." ”

Qin greeted the two elders. Qin Lin also squeezed out a smile, seemingly sincerely respecting the two elders.

After a brief conversation, Qin Lin knew that these two were the Third Elder and the Fifth Elder.

On the way from the gate of the mansion to the front hall, the three elders smiled: "I heard that Gongzi Qin is in West Jinzhou and has a very good relationship with the Lord of Weizhou?"

"There are many contacts between the clan and the Lord of Weizhou, this is all a matter between the elders, how can I, the younger generation, have the qualifications to have a relationship with the Lord of the State, but I just look up. "Qin Lin's modesty.

The third elder also said: "The old man has also been wandering in all directions, and he has lived in Xijinzhou for a year or two, but he knows some businessmen in Xijinzhou......"

At this point, the three elders glanced at Qin Lin, and then showed a strange smile, and said: "Hey, please don't be surprised by Qin Gongzi, the old man has indeed never heard of the Qin family in Xijinzhou." ”

"It's not surprising that my Qin clan was originally just a clan on the boundary of Lanzhou, and with the support of the Ruan clan in Xijinzhou, it has only developed in the past two years. "Qin Lin.

"Ruan Clan?" the three elders' eyes flickered and pondered.

Qin Lin said: "Since the third elder has lived in West Jinzhou, I wonder if he has ever visited the Ruan Clan's Villa?"

"It turned out to be Ruan's Villa, the old man remembered it, but he had never visited, but I heard for a long time that Ruan's Villa, the owner of Ruan's Villa, was a powerful character. The Third Elder smiled.

Qin Lin stopped, arched his hand and said, "The lord of the villa is Uncle Ruan Jin, and the third elder is afraid that he is mistaken." ”

"Oh, yes, yes, look at my memory, I really don't believe it. The third elder laughed.

In fact, even fools can figure out that he is trying to Qin Lin.

Intentionally, the owner of Ruan's Villa is Ruan Shui, if Qin Lin responds to his stubble, it will be regarded as revealing his feet.

Qin Lin knew that at tonight's banquet, there would be no shortage of people like the Third Elder who had been to Xijinzhou before.

Jiang Donglin wanted to test them one by one to determine whether Qin Lin was from West Jinzhou.

Come to the front room.

Twenty tables and chairs were placed in each row on the left and right, and several appetizing layers on the table were already on the table, and all kinds of people were chatting with wine glasses.

Qin Lin also responded one by one.

"Qin Gongzi is full of wealth and wealth, and he is worthy of being a businessman from West Jinzhou, which is really enviable. ”

It's a young man who speaks.

He said that Qin Lin was full of wealth and nobility, but his own round figure and wide brocade clothes were as good as Qin Lin.

Jiang Donglin stepped forward at this time: "Gongzi Qin, let me introduce you, this is half of your fellow countryman, the third son of the He family in Xiangcheng, He Blue Chip." ”

"It turned out to be the son of the He family in Xiangcheng, disrespectful and disrespectful. Qin Lin gave up.

He Lanchip also gave up, and his fat face showed a hint of provocation.

Jiang Donglin continued: "I lived with Blue Chip in Xiangcheng as a child, and I was the brother who worshipped the leader, but later Blue Chip went to West Jinzhou, and I didn't come back until a few days ago. ”

"I see, it turns out that Gongzi He is also in West Jinzhou. Qin Lin pretended to be surprised.

He Lanchou smiled faintly: "Hey, I'm just sending people under the fence in West Jinzhou, unlike Qin Gongzi who is a real person from West Jinzhou." ”

"No, no, no, Qin is in Xijinzhou, and he is also under the fence, Qin's family is from Lanzhou, and fortunately with the help of Ruan's Villa, he can have a place in Xijinzhou. Qin Lin said.

"Nguyen Thi ......"

He Lanchou was a little suspicious, he still wanted to say something, but Jiang Donglin interrupted him.

"Come on, let's let Qin Gongzi sit down first, serve food, and drink. ”

Jiang Donglin may not want to enter the state of questioning too obviously, after all, tonight he is banqueting Qin Lin in the name of "catching the wind and washing the dust".

After Qin Lin sat down, the dinner party began.

The banquet was attended by all the nobles in Anjing City, and there were also representatives of the younger generation of the Liu family.

Anjing City is located in a remote area and lacks materials, but Jiang's banquet is not inferior at all, and there are even dancers to help the fun, dancing in the center of the front hall.

Everyone admired the dancing and talked happily, which can be regarded as having done enough superficial work.

The most common question that swept everyone to talk to Qin Lin was the construction of the post house.

"Once the post house of Qin Gongzi is completed, it can be regarded as adding a touch of splendor to our Anjing City, and I heard that the area is comparable to the city lord's mansion of Xiangcheng, and it will definitely attract the stop of the caravan from all over the world at that time. ”

"Yes, we should have had such a post house in Anjing City a long time ago, and there are more caravans, and we have enough supplies in the city. ”

"Qin Gongzi is doing a good deed for our Anjing City, if there is any problem that is difficult to handle, Qin Gongzi please don't be polite, if there is anything you need our help with, speak as soon as possible." ”

Everyone had nice words, as if they wanted to make Qin Lin relax their vigilance in this way.

In fact, their rendition was a success.

If it weren't for Qin Lin's already driving the aura to read their every thought, their performance might have really been able to deceive Qin Lin.

"Qin Gongzi, I don't know what kind of business your caravan operates in West Jinzhou, and where is the store?" He Lanchip sat beside Qin Lin with a glass of wine and a flushed face with wine.

The others were chatting freely, and the dancers were still swaying to the tune of the guzheng, as if no one cared about He Lanchip's approach to Qin Lin, but everyone was waiting for this moment to come.

Qin Lin picked up the wine glass and drank with He Lanchip.

"Qin's caravan has just been built, but there are only more than 1,000 people, mainly in Ruan's procurement and trade route expansion, and there is no business name yet. ”

"Oh, no wonder in West Jinzhou, I have never heard of the Qin family's business name. He Lanchou smiled.

He asked again: "Then I don't know, whether Gongzi Qin has seen Gongzi Wei Rui." ”

"Of course. "Qin Lin.

Wei Rui is now the most powerful one among the younger generation of the Wei family, and he can basically be determined as the future head of the Wei family.

However, Qin Lin had actually never met Wei Rui.

Or, if he saw Wei Rui somewhere, it was very likely that he would not be able to hold it for a while and kill Wei Rui with one punch.

Now, Qin Lin naturally replied in front of He Lanchou that he had seen Wei Rui, and the main source of confidence was that He Lanchou had never seen Wei Rui either.

Qin Lin drove the aura to read He Lanchip's heart.

Therefore, Qin Lin was able to answer every question that He Lanchip was thinking about at this time.

No matter what kind of temptation He Lanchip wants to do to Qin Lin, Qin Lin can know one step ahead and prepare the way to deal with it.

After a banquet, He Lanchou almost asked all the questions about West Jinzhou.

Qin Lin himself knew something, so he answered. What he didn't know was to find a promise from He Lanchip's mind through aura.

He Lanzhen is out of temper.

He couldn't find the slightest flaw in Qin Lin.

The dinner was about to end, and he returned to his seat with an empty wine glass, leaning back in pretending to be drunk, which was a signal to Jiang Donglin.

Seeing this, Jiang Donglin stood up.

"Everyone, come, fill all the wine glasses, today we are here to wash the dust for Qin Gongzi, and the last glass of wine, we will pay tribute to Qin Gongzi again. ”

As Jiang Donglin's words fell, everyone stood up.

Qin Lin understood that this Hongmen banquet was finally coming to an end.

Since Jiang Donglin didn't take any action at the Hongmen banquet, it means that he basically believes that Qin Lin is indeed a businessman from West Jinzhou.

In this way, it was time for Qin Lin to make a request.

After a glass of wine, Qin Lin said: "Jiang Gongzi, Qin has a reluctant request, and I hope Jiang Gongzi will allow it." ”

"Qin Gongzi though. Jiang Donglin behaved generously.

Qin Lin said: "I need to build a post house as soon as possible and open up trade routes, so I hope that Jiang Gongzi will agree to all the entourage of my caravan to enter the city." ”

"Eh, are you the one who camped outside the city?" Jiang Donglin hesitated.

Qin Lin nodded: "Yes, it is not easy to do business, they follow all the way and open up trade routes, and I really can't bear to watch them sleep outside the city." ”

"In that case, that, that...... I really drank too much wine tonight, so let's do it, this matter will be arranged by Gongzi Qin in person. When Jiang Donglin spoke, his eyes couldn't help but glance at He Lanchip.

Whether or not to believe that Qin Lin is a businessman in West Jinzhou depends on He Lanchip's statement, so Jiang Donglin also has to delay it now.

Qin Lin gave up, of course he knew that Jiang Donglin still had to sum up with He Lanchip, so he responded: "Okay, then wait for tomorrow, and bother Jiang Gongzi to make arrangements." ”

"Hmm!" Jiang Donglin kept smiling and raised his wine glass.

After the dinner, Qin Lin left Jiang's mansion, and everyone dispersed, leaving only Jiang Donglin and He Lanchip, who pretended to be drunk.

"There is nothing wrong with this Rao's identity, he knows Xijinzhou very well, and he should have lived in Xijinzhou for a long time. "He blue chips.

"Is it really okay?" Jiang Donglin was still skeptical.

He Lanchou said: "I asked him about the Wei family, and he knows more about the Wei family than I do, which shows that he does often correspond with the Wei family." ”

He Lanchou thinks that he can be regarded as a good eater in Xijinzhou, and he has dealings with all the nobles, and Qin Lin knows the situation in Xijinzhou better than him, which makes He Lanchou believe that Qin Lin is also in close contact with various nobles in Xijinzhou

Early in the morning, Jiang Donglin came to the city gate with a tense face.

He thought about it all night, and it seemed that he had no choice but to take advantage of the situation and allow all the retinues of Qin Lin's "caravan" to enter the city.

Because, He Lanchou had already reminded him that Qin Lin had a relationship with the nobles of Xijinzhou, so it was best not to offend.

Don't spare words, Jiang Donglin may not be able to believe it all, but He Lanchip's words, he has no reason not to believe it.

"That's all, that's all. ”

He sighed.

Qi Li led more than 500 Snow Fox Clansmen into Anjing City and came towards the inn.

Qin Lin had already received the message sent by Jiang Fu early in the morning, and stood outside the door of the inn, watching Qi Li's domineering figure gradually come into view.

"You should be a little more restrained. "Qin Lin.

"Is it necessary? A bunch of garbage is embarrassed to shout at five or six. The word "unhappy" was written on Qi Li's clean face.

Qin Lin raised his eyebrows: "Who offended you?"

"Who else can there be, Jiang Donglin's waste. Qi Li, squinting his eyes back.

In the distance, Jiang Donglin rode on horseback and followed behind the Snow Fox Clan.

Qin Lin smiled faintly.

Qi Li continued: "I really don't know what kind of capital the Jiang clan has, and he actually dares to warn us not to make trouble in the city, otherwise we will be expelled." ”

"Hehe, let Zhi, always have to put on an official show. Qin Lin calmed Qi Li.

Jiang Donglin led the disciples to the front of the inn and bowed hands with Qin Lin: "Master Qin, I really drank too much wine last night, you see if I am a friend enough, I came to help you handle things early this morning." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang. Qin Lin also gave up.

Jiang Donglin waved his hand: "It's a matter, it's just that my Jiang family bears the heavy responsibility of guarding Anjing City, so you should be low-key in the city, don't boast that you are from West Jinzhou, that is, you are bullying our countrymen." ”

"Jiang Gongzi, what is this? As foreigners, we naturally abide by local rules. "Qin Lin.

Jiang Donglin smiled: "It's still Qin Gongzi who is empathetic, and my son has always been the first to talk ugly, and I hope that Qin Gongzi will forgive me." ”

After that, Jiang Donglin drove the horse and continued to move forward.

Further on, it was the piece of land that Qin Lin had purchased.

The total area of land has reached 1,500 mu, which is already one-tenth of the entire territory of Anjing City.

Jiang Donglin looked at the house that had been demolished on the land, and there was always an uneasy emotion in his heart.

"Jiang Gongzi, when the post house is completed, Qin will definitely leave a courtyard for Jiang Gongzi in the post house, so that Jiang Gongzi can come and live at any time. "Qin Lin.

"It's too polite, your post house is also a place to operate, and my son can't come to live in vain. Jiang Donglin said.

Qin Lin: "There are too few craftsmen in Anjing City, I need to hire craftsmen from Xiangcheng, and I hope that Jiang Gongzi will make it convenient when the time comes, and allow the craftsmen of Xiangcheng to enter the city." ”

"Of course, good. Jiang Donglin nodded.

Qin Lin continued: "Also, in order to speed up the construction of the post house, I need more manpower, I heard that there are many refugees in Anjing City who have fled from other realms, and Qin wants to hire them, I don't know if it is convenient. ”

"As long as Qin Gongzi has enough money, there is nothing inconvenient, and Qin Gongzi does not need to go through the permission of this Gongzi for these things. ”

Jiang Donglin smiled, and continued: "Qin Gongzi must not think too harshly of this son, your construction of a post house in Anjing City is also beneficial to my Anjing City, and this son should be a great helper." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang. Qin Lin gave up.

Jiang Donglin left.

He was powerless to stop Qin Lin, and there was no reason to stop him.

In the following days, all the houses in the vacant land were demolished, leaving only some for the Snow Fox people to live in temporarily.

When all the craftsmen from Xiangcheng and the materials needed for construction arrived in Anjing City, the construction of the house began to begin.

After that, it's a matter of time.

In the inn, Qin Lin sat in the room, listening to Chunfen's report.

Chunfen is the general person in charge of the construction of the house, and Aji and Ado cooperate with Chunfen.

"Brother, we have already calculated, it will take two months at the earliest to build all the houses. Chun Fen said.

"It's been too long, is there a way to speed things up. Qin Lin asked.

"If we want to speed up, we can only increase the number of people, but we have already hired thirty-three craftsmen from Xiangcheng, and we have invited all the craftsmen that Xiangcheng can invite, plus Anjing City originally had seven craftsmen, a total of forty people, there is no way to more. ”

Chunfen was helpless, two months was indeed too long, after all, she had to be prepared for Wei's pursuit of the case at any time.

At the moment, Wei has not yet turned his attention to Lishan, but he is thinking about it soon.
