The man in black bowed deeply, whined and made a gesture in his mouth, took out the bamboo tube from his back, and respectfully handed it to Bai Xue. Bai Xue neatly opened the bamboo tube, pulled out a bunch of bamboo slips, opened a look, and the three big words "Talent Seeking Order" at the beginning of the Jane were impressive!

She let out a soft "ah" and let out a big smile. Bai Xue already knew that the person who came was a mute, so he gestured and smiled: "Strong man, please rest here and stay for a few days to see Anyi." The man in black waved his hand again and again, turned around, and seemed to be about to leave immediately.

Bai Xue stopped with a smile and said, "Strong man Gaoyi, dare to ask for a name?" As he spoke, he pointed to the pen and inkstone on the bookcase. The man in black groaned slightly, walked to the bookcase and picked up the long jade pipe goose feather, squatted down, pulled out a piece of bamboo slips next to the inkstone, and wrote two big characters crookedly.

Bai Xue smiled: "Heh, Jing Nan." Chu people? ”

The man in black smiled and nodded rather reservedly.

"Jing Nan? That's a martial arts master! Qin Feng's heart tightened, and he said why the person who came to bring him such a strong psychological oppression, it turned out that his martial arts were no less than his own Jing Nan. Jing Nan is also very strong in martial arts recorded in the history books, but Qin Feng never thought that he would encounter it.

Bai Xue turned around and took out two gold cakes from a copper box and handed them over, "Strong man, buy some tea on the way." Jing Nan's face turned red, and he shook his hand and shook his head again and again. Bai Xue smiled and stuffed the golden cake into the leather bag on his back, and arched his hand: "Xie Zhuangshi." I also thanked Brother Hou Ying for me. Jing Nan nodded, bowed again, turned around and strode out.

Bai Xue left two words for Aunt Mei, and hurriedly walked out of Dong Xiangchun from the secret road and returned to his courtyard residence.

Bai's real estate has a lot of real estate, but since Bai Gui became the prime minister of Wei, Bai's real estate in Anyi began to shrink slowly.

By the time Bai Gui died, only two manors of Anyi remained, one was a four-entry courtyard in the city, which was only equivalent to the residence of a doctor in Wei; One is a small hill dwelling for hunting outside the city.

When Bai Gui was dying, he called his daughter to the couch and said: "Xue'er, all the Bai family's real estate and gardens are gone, what is left to you for your father is only the hunting villa and this small courtyard in the Shushui River Valley, do you complain about the old father?" ”

Bai Xue shook her head with a smile, "Qian property is the father's footprints, erasing it, it is the father who wants to free his daughter." How can a daughter be pedantic and calculating? Bai Gui sighed, "Xue'er, this is just one of them. The most important thing is that your father will protect you from never getting into a storm of money, and you will only do what you love in your life. Part of the manor property was donated by his father to the government office, and part of it was distributed to the fourteen branches of the Bai family. After your father is gone, no one will come and divide the property with you. ”

As he spoke, he instructed Bai Xue to find a small copper box from the iron cabinet next to the couch and open it, "Here are the previous documents of the State Government Office, as well as the deed of property separation made by the fourteen patriarchs separately with me, you, put it away." Bai Xue closed the copper box with tears and a smile, "Father, daughter know that money is a matter outside the body......"

Bai Gui shook his head slightly, "Xue'er, don't say that easily. Money is a kind of power, which can be used to make people and destroy people. What his father did not dispose of, there were only a few livelihoods left in Anyi Dongxiangchun and the states of Chu, Qin, Zhao, and Qi. Except for Dong Xiangchun, the livelihood of the rest of the countries is secret, and no one knows. One day, when you don't need this kind of power to support you, they are outside the body. ”

Bai Gui laboriously pointed to his chest, "Xue'er, untie here." Bai Xue smiled, "The world says that the father calculates the number one in the world, and it is really true that he wants to calculate his daughter until she is old." Bai Gui also smiled, "Xue'er is my father's baby, so naturally I want to give a foolproof." Unravel it. ”

Bai Xue untied her father's robe and couldn't help but be taken aback - the lining of the caftan was painted with all kinds of shapes, lines and dense small characters, like a clueless spider's web! Bai Xue smiled, "Father, this is clearly a tadpole Wentianshu." Bai Gui smiled mysteriously, "This is a foreign livelihood map, optimistic about it?" It contains the principal and contact information. ”

As he spoke, he sat up energetically, took off his robe and handed it to his daughter, "Xue'er, remember, Wei State may not be a place to live for a long time. Put this thing away. The old father's business is over, it's over......" laughed for a while, and went calmly.

Twelve-year-old Xiao Baixue didn't have any panic or sadness. She wore a big red auspicious dress and treated her old father's funeral as a happy event, which shocked the entire Anyi for a while!

Although Bai Gui has only been the prime minister for a short period of eight years, after all, he was entered by a world-famous Wei giant businessman, and his popularity is extremely high, and the mourners are endless.

People were surprised to find that the Bai family was not as grand as the Chinese people rumored, but it was full of simplicity and simplicity like a scholar's family. People sighed that Bai Gui had skills in business and governing the country, but he didn't start and finish well, he went innocently, leaving too little for his youngest daughter. After a period of time, the Bai family gradually faded out of the minds of the Chinese people. Xiao Baixue grew up calmly.

Bai Xue lives in this very ordinary small courtyard on this small street. There are many merchants from Yan and Zhao living in the small street, so they called the name Yanzhao Street. This small street is not bustling, not deserted, not in the middle of the city, and not remote, but it is indeed an ordinary place that is hard to remember.

The second entrance to the courtyard is the study room of the Bai family. Six rooms side by side, divided into two compartments in the west and four in the east, the middle door is connected, the west is the book and the cultural relics collection house, and the east is the reading and carving house. Among the Bai family's property, only this study room was preserved intact, and even the two servants who were in charge of the study were also retained and were not dismissed.

The old servant is specialized in keeping and repairing cultural relics and books, he was a scribe during Bai Gui's lifetime, because he broke his leg when he was riding a horse when he was a child, and he was not good at reading, so Bai Gui made him the head of the study. The little maid was the companion that Bai Gui specially looked for for his daughter before his death, and because he was very similar to his daughter, Bai Gui specially told him to leave these two loyal servants to his daughter.

The maid's name is Aunt Mei, and she is the girl who has come to guard Bai Xue in Dongxiangchun these days. Every time Bai Xue returns home from outside, she has to go to the study first to arrange the things to be done, and then go to rest and relax.

Although it was already the second watch when I came back tonight, the headlights were still on in the study. Bai Xue hurried to the study as usual. The old scribe came in limp and reported: "Childe, there is nothing to do today, you go and rest." Only this old man insisted on calling Bai Xue "Childe", and seemed to think that this hostess was as good as a man. Over time, people have also recognized the title of the old man, and Bai Xue is also used to such an identity as a son-in-law.

"Scholar, I've got something." Bai Xue hurriedly said: "You have to pack the laws and regulations of various countries in the library into a large wooden box, which can withstand the bumps." ”

"Childe, do you want to go out and use it yourself? Or are you going to sell it? Want to give it away? The scholar was surprised: "That is the most precious collection of the old prime minister, and some of them are even missing from the treasury of the national government." ”

"My scholar," Bai Xue smiled, "I know." Things are of great use, and they have their place, right? ”

"That's it. I'm a wake-up call to my son, so I don't have to let someone do it easily. ”

"Thank you Shuweng, how can Bai Xue allow someone easily? Okay, go for it, yes. ”

The scholar limped. Bai Xue sat down in front of the bookcase, opened a mahogany box on the desk, and took out a one-foot-square piece of yellow-white parchment. This kind of parchment is difficult to make, so it is very valuable, and even in a wealthy family like Bai, parchment paper is not easy to use.

Except for the most important letters, orders, etc., books and articles are generally written and transcribed in bamboo slips. Bai Xue gently pressed a corner of the parchment paper with a copper paperweight, pulled out a newly polished and sharpened goose feather from the green jade pen holder, and after a little thought, he began to write with a stroke of a stroke.

After a while, Bai Xue finished writing, carefully rolled the parchment into a thin tube, stuffed it into a delicate copper tube, closed the lid with a "bell", and twisted it three times, and the copper tube became a locked letter tube, which could only be opened with the agreed key. This is a special letter management for the Bai family to transmit trade secrets, and it is not easy to use it for non-major events.

Bai Xue cuffed the letter tube in her sleeve and came to a stone house in the West Cross Courtyard and knocked softly on the door.

With a "bang", a huge stone slab was removed, and a lean man walked out, "Miss? Thin Chai was disheveled and rude. So saying, he went into the house to tidy himself up. Bai Xue smiled: "Thin chai, don't bother." I should have summoned you to the study, and I didn't want to work as a scholar. Come, something's wrong. ”

"Slender Chai listens to Miss's orders."

"I'm annoying, you go to Qin Country and find ...... in Liyang" Bai Xue's voice suddenly lowered.

"Miss, don't worry. Thin firewood is ready, and the fourth watch goes out of the city. I rushed back in three or five days. ”

When Bai Xue returned to the bedroom, it was already more quiet. She looked at the bright moonlight in the courtyard, and she didn't feel sleepy for a long time.

Qin Feng was also slightly shocked in his heart, he witnessed the whole process of this Miss Bai family's handling of affairs, and even more realized the intelligence, agility, and rigor of this Snow White girl.

Immediately, Qin Feng also quietly left, and returned to the place where Wei Ying was, where he cultivated cross-legged. He didn't want to leave the place where Wei Ying was now.

Early the next morning, Qin Feng followed Wei Ying all the way to Dongxiangchun. Waited all the time.

In the evening, Bai Xue took advantage of the twilight to enter Dong Xiangchun from the secret passage and came to his secret room.

As soon as she drank a cup of tea, Aunt Mei walked in and smiled mysteriously: "Miss, that gentleman has arrived, and he only drinks tea, not alcohol." ”

"Which gentleman?" Snowboarded face. "Ah, a tall man, dressed in white, very generous." Aunt Mei smiled and gestured.

Bai Xue smiled, took out a bunch of bamboo slips and said, "Go to the writing room immediately, transcribe ten copies of this bamboo slip, and scatter it on the case where the scholars gathered." Also, if the mysterious old man comes, he will immediately receive the gentleman's desk. "Don't worry, Miss, you won't make a mistake." Aunt Mei took the bamboo slip and went out excitedly.
