Chapter Eighty-Three: True and False Lines

The house where Mi Ye lives is twice the size of Zhang Bin's house, but in addition to the fact that the wall is a little higher than the ordinary house, it looks ordinary from the outside, which is already very low-key for the wealth of the head of the Great Song Jingshi Grain Bank.

Zhang Bin revealed his identity, and was respectfully invited into the front yard to wait in the living room.

It's just that after seeing it along the way, I know what a rich person is.

The entire courtyard was paved with cyan granite, cut into squares of exactly the same size, and polished very evenly.

Zhang Bin knows that with the craftsmanship and tools of this era, to achieve this, the manpower, material and financial resources consumed are not a small amount.

There are also many precious flowers and trees in the garden, and the whole yard design is very elegant, faintly having the feeling of Jiangnan garden, and it is from the hands of famous artists at a glance.

Entering the front hall, Zhang Bin was startled by the screen at the door again, because this turned out to be a jade screen two meters wide and about one meter eight high, relying on the natural patterns on the jade, on which flower and bird patterns were drawn.

As for the wooden chairs and tables in the living room, the most precious golden silk nanmu is the most expensive, and the tea bowl is also the most expensive firewood kiln celadon today.

Not to mention the tea leaves that are served to the guests, the snacks and fruits on the table, etc.,

But when Zhang Bin saw this, he frowned slightly and was greatly disappointed.

In his logical inference, Mi Ye, the head of the Great Song Jingshi Grain Bank, must be a successful entrepreneur who acts cautiously, has a very high mind, and has very powerful means.

In this era, no matter how successful a businessman is, he is still a businessman, and even if he is rich, he must not show his wealth, otherwise he will definitely cause death.

But in addition to the relatively low-key size of the outer wall and the house, everything in this courtyard is showing off his wealth nakedly, and it is the kind of nouveau riche style of showing off his wealth.

"To be able to become the head of the Jingshi Grain Bank, it shouldn't be such a flamboyant person." Zhang Bin couldn't help but secretly think in his heart while waiting for the arrival of that Mi Ye.

Zhang Bin was wearing the official uniform of the Seven-Rank Confucian Lin Lang, and there were six elite veteran guards with exposed evil spirits and the stunning beauty entourage of the snake slave, which was not small at first glance, so that Mi Ye came quickly.

"The villain didn't know that the officials were coming, and he couldn't meet them from afar, so he asked the officials to forgive his sins." As soon as Mi Ye came in, he bowed to Zhang Bin, which was not very respectful, but it was full of courtesy.

"There is no need to be polite at the head of the line, but today there is business to disturb." Zhang Bin said this in his mouth, his brows frowned slightly, because the image of this Mi Ye was the same as his house, which made him very disappointed.

"Whatever the official commands, the villain will definitely do his best to meet the official's wishes." Mi Ye looks like he is in his forties, dressed in silk and satin, wearing a staff hat, short stature, big belly, like a meat ball, and the nouveau riche is full of face.

The most important thing is that the third division has sent the official notice of the bidding and auction to the hands of various big grain merchants, and this Mi Ye, as the leader of this industry, is naturally the first to receive the official notice. But looking at this Mi Ye's reaction, it is obvious that he hasn't thought of his intention, and this mind can be seen.

But according to the news that Zhang Bin heard the day before yesterday, this Mi Ye has been the head of the line for more than two years, and it is impossible for him to break out, and how can he be in the head of the line for two or three years, how can he be of average mind.

Zhang Bin was quite disappointed to say the purpose of this trip, and then Mi Ye suddenly realized, Zhang Bin asked a few more words, and the answer was also decent, and there was nothing brilliant.

"Don't hide it from the head of the line, I came here this time to give the head of the line an official position." Zhang Bin's eyes flashed, and he said suddenly.

Mi Ye was stunned for a moment, ecstatic at the same time, but also a little surprised, and asked cautiously: "The villain is panicked." ”

Zhang Bin became more and more disappointed and said, "But ...... Whether this official position can be given to you depends on your performance. ”

After speaking, Zhang Bin didn't wait for Mi Ye to say anything, so he got up directly and left.

Mi Ye hurriedly got up to send it off, and asked people to give a gift prepared in advance. The gift is not expensive, but it is just a habitual practice when officials come to the door in these years.

After getting out of the house and getting into the carriage, Zhang Bin thought for a while and said to the snake slave: "You go and keep an eye on this Mi Ye, see who he sees, and then come back and tell me." ”

"The slave understands." The snake slave agreed, and got out of the car window, and his figure disappeared from the alley next to him.

………

………

After Mi Ye sent Zhang Bin away, he was stunned and thought for a moment, then ordered someone to prepare carriages and horses, and quietly left the house through the side door.

In a small alley, a vendor was confused by the snake slave, and in a daze, he bought his flat shoulder and two baskets of dried fruits to the snake slave for fifty yuan, and took off his short coat.

This area is lined with shops and pedestrians, and in this environment, it is not easy to keep up with a horse-drawn carriage without the other party noticing. In particular, if the target of the stalking is proficient in anti-stalking, it is easy to get rid of the stalker.

Of course, if the stalker is proficient in the art of stalking, the result will be different.

The snake slave actually pretended to be a merchant in a very short time, his face somehow got it, he became a little dark, not to mention, he didn't even see a bulge in his chest, and followed behind the fat man's carriage with a burden.

There was a lot of traffic on the streets, and the merchants dressed as snake slaves were normally wandering around the city doing business, so they didn't arouse the other party's alarm.

And the snake slave is worthy of almost even Zhang Bin deceived the top spy, what is this acting really like, at this time he walked very steadily with the goods, not to mention, his shoulders were a little hunchbacked, and he was no different from a real merchant.

In this way, until Mi Fatzi's carriage entered a private house, the snake slave found a place nearby, and while setting up a stall to buy dried fruits, he wrote down the terrain route in the vicinity, and prepared to go back to report to Zhang Bin.

But at this moment, the fat man's carriage came out of the house again, and the snake slave was about to follow, when he suddenly stopped again, looked at the wheel marks and the horse pulling the cart was much more relaxed than before, sneered, went around to the side of the house, like a snake, climbed to the wall, and jumped to a big tree inside the wall, and used the canopy to hide himself.

Then the snake slave saw that there was a back door to the house, and another carriage was parked outside the back door.

The snake slave screamed badly, quickly slid down the tree, climbed over the wall, ran with the basket to the alley where the back door was located at great speed, and then calmed his breath, bowed down and walked forward.

And almost at the next moment, out of the corner of his eye, the snake slave saw that the fat man had changed his outfit, walked out of the back door, looked left and right a few times, and then got into the carriage.

Fat Mi had obviously seen the snake slave before getting into the carriage, so after he got into the carriage, the carriage he was in did not move, but stared at the snake slave through the window.
