Chapter 466: Visiting Cai Yong
So, with the support of Zhang Wei, the nominal team captain, the other team members can only reluctantly accept the reality, after all, the situation is stronger than people, no matter how harsh the new regulations promulgated by Liu Xin, they must accept it, unless they are willing to leave the compound directly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
And for these team members who have betrayed Liu Xin and become undercover agents, they can only try their best to stay in the compound now, and continue to spy on Liu Xin's news, after all, this is their only job now, and their behind-the-scenes principals are not as open-minded as Wang Yun, some behind-the-scenes principals have begun to ask their undercover agents to obtain some important information about Liu Xin as soon as possible, otherwise it will make them look good, after all, raising a pig can still kill and eat meat, No one wants to spend money to feed some worthless people.
Therefore, although the new regulations proposed by Liu Xin made these undercover agents feel that something was wrong, especially after Su Jia announced the members of each group, these undercover agents discovered a very serious fact, that is, the members of the same group as themselves are all undercover agents of other behind-the-scenes principals, not in the same camp as themselves, and the relationship between themselves and them is not good...
To put it simply, it took a lot of effort for Su Jia to group this time, because Su Jia not only has to ensure that the five people in each group are undercover agents belonging to different organizations or individuals, but also ensure that the relationship between the five undercover agents in each group is not too good, so as not to collude with each other and collude together to form a small circle, and the most important thing is to make it possible for them to denounce each other, so that these undercover agents can be better eradicated.
After all, in Liu Xin's eyes, it only takes a day or two, and these undercover agents present will at least lose about half of the people, and when they leave Luoyang, I am afraid they can only return to Yizhou and Chengdu with a quarter of the undercover agents.
After solving the problem of undercover, Liu Xin casually packed up his clothes, after all, this is to visit Cai Yong, Liu Xin feels that he still wears some scholarly temperament will be better, after all, judging people by appearance is not just talking, many times when people face and contact strangers, they will believe and insist that their first impression is correct, so as to decide what attitude to use to face this stranger at the beginning, and one of the most important judgment criteria is the stranger's dressAfter all, most of the time people will have a higher level of affection for people who dress well, and not so well for people who dress sloppily.
Of course, in some specific circumstances, people will also have a good impression of some people who are particularly dressed, such as police uniforms, nurse uniforms, which represent a specific group of people's clothing, which generally makes people have a certain degree of favorability, and finally they do what they like, after all, everyone has their own preferences for a wide variety of clothing, such as Liu Xin has always been a staunch black silk lover... It's far away, just like Liu Xin's current dress reflects the temperament of a scholar, it is biased towards Cai Yong's favorite style, Liu Xin feels that no matter how much he can improve Cai Yong's favorability towards himself.
After making preparations, Su Jia drove Liu Xin to Cai Yong's mansion with a flowing horse, because the supervision of Chunyi Building has been taken over by Jiang Wei and Zhong Hui, and the two of them will take turns to lead more than two groups of team members to Chunyi Building to be responsible for the renovation work, so Su Jia can be regarded as liberated.
After a while, Liu Xin came to Cai Yong's mansion, although this is said to be a mansion, but Liu Xin feels that Cai Yong's current residence is not as good as his own compound, but think about it, Cai Yong has just returned to Luoyang from exile, and he has no job, naturally he has no income, and it is very good to be able to buy such a residence, after all, this is Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, not only is the price expensive, but the house price is more expensive, especially a house like this in the center of Luoyang, And Liu Xin still remembered that Lu Zhi once said that Cai Yong often spent all his money on buying ancient books, so Liu Xin also knew that Cai Yong should not have much savings.
But having said that, as one of the top scribes in the Han Dynasty today, Cai Yong still has many servants who come to serve Cai Yong.
The ancient subordinates can be roughly divided into two types, one is voluntary, the other is forced, the latter needless to say, is basically composed of some slaves, or ordinary people who went bankrupt after suffering natural and man-made disasters, these people are basically signed a deed of sale with the master's family, and all the freedom of life and all the income from their labor are owned by the master's family, unless the master's family is gracious and forgiven, or the master's family also has some accidents, these people may regain their freedom.
Now Cai Yong's servants belong to the former who voluntarily come to serve Cai Yong's family, this kind of servants are basically ordinary people, and they can also be roughly divided into two types, the first type is to accept the employment of the master's family, divided into long-term or short-term workers, the master's family settles the wages on time, and these servants will not be restricted by the master's family, and they can leave if they want; And these servants under Cai Yong do not ask for anything in return, they only need Cai Yong to provide food and accommodation, this kind of servants are either favored by the master's family, so they voluntarily come to serve the master's family, such as the concierge of Cai Yong's family that Liu Xin met now, that is, when Cai Yong spent money to save this concierge family during his exile, Cai Yong originally did not ask for anything in return, but this concierge family insisted on making cattle and horses for Cai Yong, and finally became Cai Yong's subordinates and served Cai Yong's family; There are also people who come here to become Cai Yong's servants with a certain purpose, most of these people are willing to come to serve Cai Yong because of Cai Yong's fame, after all, there is such a saying, "One person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven", for example, the housekeeper under the Yuan family of the fourth world and the third duke, if it is placed outside, it is taller than some county commanders, and even at some times can anger the Taishou in some small places, so this is the advantage of following a good master, Therefore, there are many servants who come to volunteer to serve Cai Yong's family with such a purpose, even if Cai Yong has been exiled.
Cai Yong instructed the concierge yesterday and informed the concierge that Liu Xin would come to visit him today, so the concierge had already prepared, Liu Xin took Liu Xin to the living room as soon as he came, Cai Yong was already waiting for Liu Xin in the living room... To be exact, Cai Yong should have been studying ancient books in the living room for a long time.
Cai Yong saw Liu Xin under the reminder of the porter, and hurriedly put down the ancient book manuscript in his hand, stepped forward and said to Liu Xin with a smile: "Lord Wang, you are finally here, but you have been waiting for a long time." ”
Cai Yong is a typical Han scribe who attaches great importance to his own etiquette, so Liu Xin also smiled and said to Cai Yong: "Haha, this king encountered some things yesterday, so he dealt with some problems this morning, so he came late, and please don't blame this king." ”
Cai Yong naturally heard about the incident that happened yesterday, and also knew that Liu Xin was going to deal with those undercover agents this morning, but Cai Yong didn't want to discuss this matter too much, after all, this was Liu Xin's family matter, and he was an outsider who was not qualified to speak, so Cai Yong nodded, indicating that he understood Liu Xin's behavior.
And Liu Xin also gave Su Jia a look at this time, Su Jia immediately understood, and sent the gift to Cai Yong, Cai Yong saw those few thread-bound books, and immediately his eyes lit up, after all, Cai Yong also knew that Liu Xin had a large number of wire-bound books in his hands, and as a scribe, Cai Yong also understood the advantages of wire-bound books compared with bamboo slips, and also knew the preciousness of wire-bound books, so Cai Yong was also full of expectations and desires for wire-bound books before this, but Cai Yong was just thinking about it. I didn't really expect Liu Xin to give me a thread-bound book, but Cai Yong didn't expect that his dream would come true now...
Cai Yong took the ten thread-bound books in Su Jia's hand, although he couldn't wait to open these thread-bound books to find out, but Cai Yong's cultivation has always reminded Cai Yong that now that Liu Xin is still in front of him, he can't do such a rude thing.
However, Liu Xin understands Cai Yong's thoughts, after all, as far as the traditional etiquette of the Han Dynasty is concerned, Cai Yong can't watch a gift like this in front of Liu Xin, so as to show respect for Liu Xin, but Liu Xin hopes that Cai Yong will watch these wire-bound books now, after all, these wire-bound books are Liu Xin's biggest weight to recruit Cai Yong, so how can Cai Yong not look at it?
So, Liu Xin said to Cai Yong with a smile: "Brother Bo, why don't you open these thread-bound books and take a good look, this king wants to know your opinion of these thread-bound books, after all, these thread-bound books are also important items that this king brought to the Han Dynasty, and this king needs a famous Han scribe like Brother Bo Jiao to analyze and analyze this kind of thread-bound books compared with the previous bamboo slips, which is better or worse?" ”
As soon as Cai Yong heard Liu Xin say this, it was exactly what he wanted, Cai Yong's heart was naturally very happy, and he immediately nodded and said: "So very good, since you have said so, then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate, please let me go through these thread-bound books." ”
After Cai Yong finished speaking, he returned to his place with those thread-bound books, and couldn't wait to start flipping through the thread-bound books in his hand, and Liu Xin also sat aside and began to think about life, after all, Liu Xin would not be able to take his mobile phone out to play games and read novels. . .
To tell the truth, Liu Xin now feels that he is more and more able to think about life, after all, there is usually no entertainment activities, Liu Xin can only think about life in addition to chatting with Su Jia when he is on the flowing horse, after all, those novels on the mobile phone have been read by Liu Xin I don't know how many times, I can almost recite it backwards, and because there is no network... Or there is no way to connect to the network in the future, so all those novels are considered to be in the palace, which makes Liu Xin very speechless, as for those mobile games, because there is no network, basically can't play, of course, Liu Xin also found Su Jia, hoping that Su Jia can download those novels and movies in his data storage on his mobile phone, but unfortunately I don't know if it's the reason of heaven, Liu Xin's mobile phone is now unable to accept the transmission of external data, so Su Jia can only say that when there are enough materials, Give Liu Xin an MP4 out.,And now because of the lack of some materials.,Can only be put on hold temporarily.。。。
Therefore, Liu Xin feels that if he thinks about life like this, there is a chance that he will become a philosopher.
I don't know that after a long time, Liu Xin, who had been in deep thought, was woken up by Cai Yong, Liu Xin looked at Cai Yong with an embarrassed face, and knew that time should have passed for a long time, so Liu Xin had a bad taste, and said with a smile: "Brother Bo, have you finished reading these thread-bound books?" ”
Liu Xin knows that every line-bound book here starts with 100,000 words, and this kind of ancient book is not like modern online novels, which can be read at a glance and ten lines, especially for Cai Yong's scribes, who will conduct deep scrutiny of a sentence, a word, and a word of these ancient books to study the meaning, so Liu Xin knows that this line-bound book is enough for Cai Yong to study for ten days and a half months.
It is true that Cai Yong spent about an hour after understanding the meaning of a certain paragraph, only to find that he had only read one-tenth of this thread-bound book, and this was only a cursory reading, without special research.
And Cai Yong took a look at the water clock in the living room (the two most used timekeeping methods in the Han Dynasty, one is based on the length and direction of the shadow, and the second is a timekeeping method similar to an hourglass, the water clock is of this type), only to find that he has been obsessed with reading for so long, and most importantly, he still left Liu Xin aside for such a long time, which is a big taboo, after all, Liu Xin is a distinguished guest to Cai Yong.
Therefore, Cai Yong looked at Liu Xin, who was deep in thought, and could only wake up Liu Xin with some embarrassment.
Cai Yong saw Liu Xin ask himself this, he also shook his head embarrassedly, and said: "Where and where, these thread-bound books given by the prince to the next, although the content in them is not obscure, but it is also very worthy of repeated scrutiny, so now I just read the content of a thread-bound book, but I was attracted by the content of this book for a while, and I forgot that you are still here, it is simply rude to be here." ”
Liu Xin shook his head indifferently, and said: "Where is it, Brother Bo, this king understands your behavior very well, after all, Brother Bo, you are a person who loves books, and it is a very normal thing to be addicted to it, and it seems that Brother Bo Jiao should be quite satisfied with the king's meeting gift." ”
When Cai Yong heard Liu Xin say this, he immediately nodded, indicating that he agreed with Liu Xin's words very much.
