Chapter 137: Hidden Power (Subscription Requested)
Guard.
There was an eerie silence in the antechamber for a moment. I could only hear Yinren's fingers rhythmically tapping on the table and the shouts of those people in the courtyard outside the house as they trained.
Dark one Li Siyue didn't speak, just stayed quietly and waited for Yinren to speak. When I just reported to work, I was already guilty of the taboo of the secret guard. At this time, if you don't know how to converge, then there is really no good fruit to eat.
Yinren sat there and thought for a while before saying, "The few of you who are idle, from today onwards, you will do your best to investigate Nan Huairen, and you can't let go of any disturbance around him." ”
After a pause, Yinren continued: "Remember, don't startle the snake, act rashly, and wait for the master's order before acting!" ”
Seeing that Li Siyue nodded, Yinren's tone softened slightly. "Also, pay attention to see if there are foreigners in Beijing who can speak Spanish. If there is, don't let him run. ”
"Also, Nan Huairen's letter, you can find a way to intercept it. In addition, look in Beijing to see if there are any people who are good at imitating other people's handwriting, and look at the foreigners who can speak Spanish, and stare at them first. ”
Although I don't know what Yinren's purpose is in doing this, Li Siyue doesn't dare to ask more. just silently wrote down all the words that Yinren had just said.
After thinking about it, I saw that there was nothing missing, and Zhang Bao hadn't come back yet. Yinren asked casually: "How is it doing now?" ”
Seeing that Yinren was asking about the situation of the young house, Li Siyue's heart finally let go. Even the face seems to be much more relaxed.
Dark One Li Siyue said softly: "A few days ago, it was officially opened in the boundary between the inner and outer cities. As she spoke, Dark One Li Siyue's voice became slightly excited.
"And the previous plan was also extraordinarily sufficient, and now this poor young house has attracted eight large and small merchants, and two other seven-grade petty officials have also been pulled in."
Yinren was slightly surprised when he heard this. can win over merchants, Yinren has always been looking forward to it. After all, the status of businessmen in today's society is undoubtedly extremely low.
These people are particularly concerned about fame, after all, it is on their own reputation that today's merchants do business. If you want to win over merchants, in fact, as long as you spend a little effort, it is not difficult at all.
However, it is not impossible to attract the officials of the imperial court, but with the current energy of the young house, it is not enough to do this.
Yinren couldn't suppress his curiosity, and finally asked with a little doubt: "How did those two seven-rank officials agree to mix in the pitiful house?" ”
Seeing Yinren's puzzled look, Li Siyue was a little proud. It's just that when he spoke, he still restrained this pride.
Dark Li Siyue glanced at Yinren, and then said softly: "Money can make ghosts grind." When these words came out, Yinren was obviously stunned.
Indeed, such a simple and effective thing, I never thought of it. It is said that curiosity kills cats, and now it seems that inertial thinking is also inseparable.
Seeing Yinren's reaction, Li Siyue continued: "Those two seven-rank officials didn't agree to us at first. ”
"The subordinates wanted to give up first, but they were still a little unwilling. In the end, with the attitude of giving it a try, I used the means of money. Unexpectedly, the two of them immediately changed their faces and agreed to our request. ”
After a pause, Li Siyue continued: "Those merchants have no opinion on this. After all, it is really difficult to deal with people in this officialdom. ”
Yinren heard this, thought about it, and it was the same. Now that they have such an opportunity, why wouldn't they do it? Although these two people are only seventh-grade officials, the seventh-rank officials are also officials, aren't they?
Besides, the old saying "Hades is easy to mess with, and little ghosts are difficult to deal with" has never been just said. Sometimes, these small sesame officials are much more useful than the ministers of the DPRK and China.
Hidden power is unavoidable in such a bureaucratic system. If this person's IQ and EQ are both high, he will be able to use the hidden power brought by his small official position to elevate those big officials.
The dictatorship of eunuchs is the best explanation for hidden power. Coming closer, it's like Liang Jiugong next to Kangxi. Whether it is those concubines in the harem, or many princes, or ministers in the court.
Which one didn't treat Liang Jiugong very well? Which one doesn't often secretly give Liang Jiugong some benefits? In order for Liang Jiugong to be able to say a few good words for himself, don't give himself small shoes to wear.
A person without power can do many, many things with the hidden power he can have.
Yinren didn't have too much opinion on those two seven-rank officials.
After saying this for a long time, the training guards outside the house had stopped. Yinren didn't have much to say, so he sat there alone, drinking tea leisurely. It's rare to have such a good time to relax.
After waiting for a long time, Zhang Bao walked in with a slight hurry. It's not that Zhang Bao has encountered anything, but he doesn't want Yinren to wait there all the time.
Yinren instructed Li Siyue to go down and pour Zhang Bao a cup of hot tea, and then asked, "How is it?" Zhang Bao nodded and said, "It's all done, and the letter has been handed over to Imperial Doctor Chen Liang." Please rest assured, Your Highness. ”
When Yinren heard this, he didn't say anything more. After Zhang Bao drank all the hot tea in his hand, Yinren said to Li Siyue: "It's just right, take this opportunity to take my master to the young man's house to have a look." ”
There was nothing to say all the way, and when he arrived at the door of the young house, Yinren glanced at Zhang Bao, and Zhang Bao took down the rock sugar gourd and some pastries and snacks he bought before and distributed them.
Although in the Poor Child's House, basic food and clothing can be guaranteed. But things like rock sugar gourds and pastries are also extremely rare for them.
This poor house is not a shop, but a large yard bought near the block. Otherwise, there really won't be a way to accommodate those people.
Looking at the few people guarding in front of the young man, Yinren nodded slightly. This Li Siyue is still quite careful, knowing that guards are arranged at the door, so that there is no need to worry about the children in the poor children's house being abducted by human traffickers again.
While walking towards the Poor Child's Residence, Yinren asked, "How many children are there in this Poor Child's House now?" When Li Siyue heard this, she hurriedly replied: "The previous drought and the epidemic really killed a lot of people. ”
"There are a lot of orphans in the city, and there must be almost 400 children in this batch."
