Another month has passed, and during this time, Lin Xin rarely goes out to the Hou Mansion, usually in Qingzhuxuan, and rarely sees other people, occasionally going to the library pavilion, and staying for a day. In the eyes www.biquge.info of outsiders, Lin Xin seems to be practicing martial arts in retreat, and every day during the day, the sound of practicing martial arts comes from inside Qingzhuxuan, because Lin Xin has instructed during this time, if there is nothing important, don't come in and disturb, all outsiders don't know what Lin Xin is doing.

In fact, Lin Xin wore night clothes to avoid the secret guards of the Hou Mansion at night, and secretly went out to explore some of the layout of the palace.

However, the palace is too big and heavily guarded, and even with stealth techniques, there are some places that you can't get close to.

Because Lin Xin is not familiar with the layout of the palace, he accidentally touched some secret organs several times, which caused a lot of commotion, and every time these arrangements will change, this is also because Lin Xin himself knows a lot about mechanisms and the like, so he can quickly get familiar with these mechanisms, but it takes too long for this, which makes Lin Xin a little depressed.

However, it is not that there is no gain at all, at least the general layout of the palace has been clearly figured, and it has been roughly determined that three or four places may have what they want.

However, these places are heavily guarded, and there are several peerless powerhouses hidden inside, the other party has a keen perception, and he only alarmed the other party with a slight action, but the other party looked for it and found nothing.

Lin Xin secretly estimated the opponent's strength on the side, at least if he didn't use the fire bomb technique to sneak attack, it was estimated that he would not be able to make ten moves in the opponent's hands.

Lin Xin secretly made a note of the places where he couldn't approach for the time being, and was fully prepared for the next investigation.

.......

And the Hou Mansion here, except for recruiting some guest secretaries, looks the same as usual, and there is no change in step-by-step.

However, Lin Xin keenly discovered that the red-haired old man who had never met him who had been sitting in the Hou Mansion suddenly disappeared for more than half a month, and then came back, and after he came back, his skills more than doubled, and he was on par with those in the palace.

During this period, the other party also came to secretly monitor Lin Xin for several days, and Lin Xin naturally acted as if nothing had happened.

Lin Xin has been in Bianjing for almost half a year.

Recently, Tongyong Commercial Bank, the largest auction house in Bianjing, is preparing to hold a large-scale auction in the capital, which is held every year, and every time there are all kinds of strange things that are rarely seen, which attracts the attention of a large number of people.

And under the deliberate encouragement of the comptoir, many people have begun to wait and look forward to it.

According to the convention, before each major auction, some small auctions will be held in advance, although things cannot be compared with large auctions, but they are also rare in ordinary times, so they still attract a lot of attention.

Although Tongyong Commercial Bank is the largest chamber of commerce in the capital, the number of people it can accommodate is still limited because of the restrictions on the venue, so there is a limit on the number of participants, not everyone can participate, otherwise they will all pour in, and the auction venue will directly look at people, and there is no need to hold an auction at all.

And the person who can get the quota is also a status symbol, and Tongyong Commercial Bank will specially send out invitations.

And the origin of the auction also has some stories.

At the beginning of the first session of the auction, the Chamber of Commerce selected its own quota to participate, which naturally caused a lot of dissatisfaction, many people on the day of the auction on the outside shouting trouble, so that the auction could not be carried out normally, although it finally subsided, but also caused a lot of damage to the reputation of the Chamber of Commerce, and in some other business because of many people from the obstruction, so that the Chamber of Commerce lost a lot.

As a last resort, the Chamber of Commerce began to discuss the matter anew, and finally decided to designate some places, and then set aside a quarter for auction and other means.

Sure enough, after being dealt with in this way, the effect was obvious, and the occasional person who made trouble was quickly suppressed, and in this way, the auction in the future became this state of acquiescence to everyone.

Lin Xin was also sent a purple gilded invitation post by the old marquis, and as a high-ranking town candidate, he naturally received a few invitations in his hand. And Lin Xin, as a distinguished guest of the Hou Mansion, naturally gave one to Lin Xin.

Although Lin Xin rarely goes out these days, he is not ignorant of the hot auctions that have long been rumored outside, and he has also learned a lot of information from some words, and he has not refused to go to the auction to meet him. If you fancy something, you can also consider taking a shot, but the capital is full of powerful nobles, and it is unlikely that you can shoot something, and most of them are more likely to be spectators.

.......

This month Bai Kai's life has been enjoyable, because the Hou Ye is very satisfied with his performance in serving Lin Xin, and specially promoted him to be the deputy housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, which is a big opportunity for Bai Kai, now that he has a lot of power in his hands, he can occasionally use his position to make some oil and water, and even some subordinates have begun to tie him up, but Bai Kai is also crawling up from below, and he is very good at these natural treatments, but occasionally he will be complacent about his status at this time.

And Lin Xin also divided Bai Kai's two hundred taels of silver after the last time, which surprised Bai Kai for a long time for this huge wealth, and then kept thanking Lin Xin. After having this money, Bai Kai is ready to spend this year, and he will go to Guixiang's house in the spring of next year to propose marriage, and marry Xianggui back as soon as possible.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Bai Kai is very serious about doing things these days, and many people in the government look at his performance, thinking that he is the three fires of the new official.

On this day, when Bai Kai was calculating some ingredients that needed to be purchased this month, Bai Kai's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door.

Bai Kai couldn't help but look up, and a middle-aged man in his forties hurriedly walked in, followed by another slightly older deacon dressed as an old man.

Bai Kai was shocked in his heart, the person who came was the thunder butler. Could it be that there is something wrong with me recently, and the detonator has come to check himself.

I couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive when I thought of this, but my face still remained calm.

So Bai Kai hurriedly got up to greet him, bowed down and said, "Steward Lei is here, I don't know what to order." ”

"Well, this is Steward Li, these days, your affairs will be taken over by him, you temporarily put down the things in your hands, settle with him, start tomorrow, go to Qingzhuxuan and wait for Lin Gongzi's orders, I still have some things to come out, you finish this matter as soon as possible." After saying that, he walked out without stopping much, as if there were really many things waiting to be dealt with.

Bai Kai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking that he hadn't made any big mistakes, he wouldn't alarm the thunder housekeeper to come to him, he was really scared of himself, and let himself accompany Lin Gongzi, which was equivalent to having another vacation, Lin Gongzi was not a difficult person to serve.

So after Bai Kai and Steward Li exchanged pleasantries, they slowly explained what they had to do recently.

From the conversation, Bai Kai could clearly feel that Manager Li was experienced, and he just said a little roughly, and the other party could quickly understand, and briefly said some methods, and the matter was quickly settled.
