Volume 8: Chapter 270 of "Magnificent Rivers and Mountains": There must be demons when things go wrong (II)

Lin Bin narrowed his eyes and pretended to raise his head to drink, he observed Nie Ying carefully, but saw that Nie Ying was ordinary, if he threw it into the vegetable market and drilled into the pile, it would definitely disappear. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Nie Ying didn't stand below for a while, he just called softly "Protector Zhonglang General", but unfortunately it didn't have any effect at all in the hall where the drums were contending. The businessman is not short of patience, Nie Ying is naturally one of the businessmen with very good patience, he saw that he did not attract attention, so he stood quietly in place, and this station stood for almost a quarter of an hour before being discovered by Lin Bin.

Lingzi was very sensible, and when she saw her father's change of demeanor, she no longer was coquettish, but showed her ladylike side, sitting on her knees and concentrating on pouring wine, and looking at the person standing below with curious eyes.

When a guest comes to see him at a banquet, according to the current custom, the host should say a few words of greeting, which is also a part of the aristocratic society, and the intention is to give the guest a chance to speak out.

Impression determines the foundation of getting along, Lin Bin has a bad impression of the Nie family, naturally he doesn't have a good face, he put down the wine lord and calmly looked at Nie Ying without speaking.

"This is the essence of hospitality?" Nie Ying shook his head in his heart, still bowed respectfully on the surface, and exclaimed: "Villain Nie Ying...... See the Protector of the Han Dynasty! ”

That's right, Lin Bin has a lot of identities now, he is both the King of Han and the King of Liao, and at the same time, the title of Marquis of Han Protector given by the Son of Heaven has not been cancelled, and the military attache rank of the Han Protector has not been removed. It is very correct to say that Lin Bin has not established a country name for a day, and he will always have a lot of strange nicknames on him.

Nie Ying was neglected and didn't feel good in her heart, and she chose to call Huhan Hou to express her dissatisfaction. At the same time, it also has the meaning of intimacy, after all, the Marquis of the Han Dynasty is the first title with the same treatment as the liehou (Che Marquis) since the Han Dynasty, and it is a marquis title with great significance. According to the current customs, it is to respect and express kindness, so it is difficult for the person who is called to have a seizure even if he is unhappy.

Lin Bin was also happy in his heart, although he was not very accustomed to social interaction now, sometimes it was a bit embarrassing to see that simple things were always complicated, and he didn't correct Nie Ying's title, he raised his left arm and waved it gently: "No courtesy." ”

The armor of the fish scale armor made a 'rattle' sound. Is it a coincidence or deliberately, the long knife on the waist crotch fell on the table with a 'thud', as if it was expressing the dissatisfaction in the owner's heart?

Nie Ying was still smiling. Hold the bow still ......

A pair of slender hands reached over and grabbed the scabbard, the long knife was slowly raised, Lingzi smiled and handed the long knife to Lin Bin, cocking his mouth: "It's so heavy!" ”

Lin Bin smiled and touched Lingzi's head to show intimacy. He found that the drumming in the main hall had stopped. The people in the temple also seem to be attracted to look this way? When he realized that his posture was very murderous, the long knife was not tied back to his waist, but was handed back, and his own Haruka and Qiu Ju took it and placed it on their laps in a kneeling position.

The hall was silent......

The little prince of Wusun, Cen Chenjun Sumi, was also present, this was the first time he participated in such a banquet with Chinese national characteristics, and he had been observing the difference between the Chinese dancing girl and the Western Regions dancing girl from the beginning to the present. He felt that although the dance of the Chinese dancer was very tempting, it was too subtle compared to the Western Regions dancer, which made people's hearts itch!

Chinese dance pays attention to the beauty of the body. When dancing, there is always a taste of holding the pipa and half-covering the face, as if it is extremely teasing the people watching the dance to rush up and lift the veil to observe carefully?

The culture of the Western Regions is different from that of the Central Plains. Therefore, the character of the nation is different from that of the Chinese, they like naked teasing rather than flirting with metaphors, Cen Jun Xu Mi thought to himself: "Do you want your grandfather Kun Mo to send hundreds of dancing girls from the Western Regions?" Let Uncle Lin see the customs of the Western Regions and taste the taste of women in the Western Regions! ”

It may be too monographic, Cen Junxu Mi, this little guy saw Wu Ji standing stunned, he chose to stand up and asked strangely: "Why don't you dance?" ”

'Boom-' Hundreds of eyes shifted the target.

The person being stared at may have been a little unresponsive, and he was a little embarrassed to ask again: "You also think the teasing is too subtle?" I think they should be more daring, such as taking off the thin clothes in front of their breasts, and cutting off the back hem of their aprons, revealing their fair thighs. ”

Is this what a child under the age of 10 should say?

Countless people had their throats caught, their chins raised, and their faces covered with twisted black lines......

Someone muttered implicitly: "Transform into a wild man!" What a humiliation! ”

What's more: "Where can the white-skinned monster understand the grace of the Chinese neon dance!" ”

Action ......

A wine lord flew out of the sky, and it landed very accurately on the little head of Cen Jun Sumi, and the sound of 'poof' was followed by Cen Jun's voice: "Ouch! Who is so lacking in virtue! ”

The two scimitar warriors behind Cen Jun's beard looked at Lingzi next to Lin Bin a little pitifully, they knew too well how powerful Lingzi was, it was normal for their little prince to be bullied, and it would be abnormal if he was not bullied.

Lin Bin's hand stretched out, he didn't catch the wine lord who should have stood on the desk well, he looked at Lingzi a little funny, and then looked at Cen Junjun who was holding his head and shouting pain, and he finally fixed his eyes on the wine lord lying on the ground......

"Cen Chenjun must come over ......, wait! yes, by the way, bring that thing. ”

Lin Bin smiled and asked people to add a case table next to him, and simply let the two little guys mess around by themselves for the same case.

“……”

Nie Ying felt that he was ignored, why was such a big person standing here? He couldn't figure it out.

The true nature of a businessman is that even if he is ignored, he can't be angry, he has to look for an opportunity to let everyone know his existence with a smile, he can't cross the many armor soldiers to Lin Bin and shake his hands, he chooses to cough heavily to protest!

"His grandmother's! Is there such hospitality? Ye is here to give gifts, do you know what it means to give gifts? It's to smash people with valuable things and smash people into a daze! ”

Does this cough seem to have an effect? In fact, Lin Bin pretended not to see Nie Ying just now when he saw the strange expressions of the guests present.

I saw Lin Bin's very dramatic shooting, 'Bang! After the resound...... Someone exclaimed in surprise: "The Nie family's ...... (Lingzi next to him: his name is Nie Ying). Oh......, aren't you Nie Ying? How are you standing here? Is it a disagreeable drink? ”

Nie Ying had a black line on his forehead, he was really ignored......

The nature of a businessman is to weigh up. Nie Ying was thinking about when did the Nie family offend Lin Bin, why did they not want to see him so much? Thinking about it carefully, he was very sure that the Nie family had not offended Lin Bin, "Is it because of the relationship between the Huns?" He was almost certainly not treated because of the Huns, and he cried out in his heart: "We businessmen don't care about state affairs and just make a fortune, you have a grudge against the Huns and ask the Huns to send it!" ”

The merchant also has a unique skill. That's a change of face!

As soon as Nie Ying changed his previous blandness, he found an opportunity for dialogue and began to praise Lin Bin's great achievements in the past, never mentioning the unhappiness between Lin Bin and Han. Verbally recounted every battle of Lin Bin outside the Saiwai, the sentence "Establish authority for my Chinese family" is particularly smooth, and then the sentence "It is the same Chinese lineage", this is not. The two sides immediately became much closer.

Lin Bin was stunned and watched Nie Ying spit lotus flowers below. The reason is that he can't understand classical Chinese, and he doesn't understand those implicit horses. He saw that Nie Ying was sometimes impassioned, sometimes tactful and euphemistic, and sometimes lamented inexplicably, and finally found an opportunity to shout: Pause!

Nie Ying saw that the officials of the Liao Ministry (Han Department) had strange expressions, and thought that he had said something wrong? He looked at Lin Bin a little innocently, and finally made a long story short, openly expressing his admiration for Lin Bin's prestige, and prepared some gifts in the hope of being laughed at.

This seems to be a beginning, as soon as Nie Ying talks about gifts, someone immediately follows, and the banquet becomes a scene of gifts. Everyone holds a gift list, you sing, and I take the stage. The gifts are different, but the same line is: "Please smile and accept ......"

Lin Bin looked at the thick tower of bamboo slips, bamboo chips, and wood chips on the desk, and then looked at the sincere smiling faces, and the stories that Zheng Yuan had told in the past suddenly appeared in his mind.

I vaguely remember what Zheng Yuan said about the rule of law and the rule of man, and talked about the process of Wei Ying's (Shang Ying) change, including a scene where Wei Ying was named Shang Jun by Qin Xiaogong Yingqu Liang and gave gifts to hundreds of officials. Because the Qin law stipulates that officials are not allowed to give and receive gifts privately, that is, they cannot receive gifts, Wei Ying refused the gifts of hundreds of officials, not only refused but also sent them to the Governor's Office, and punished those who gave gifts according to the law.

After Zheng Yuan finished speaking, he asked Lin Bin a word, and he asked, "Is there any rebellion?" After thinking about it, Lin Bin replied, "Shang Ying advocates the rule of law and acts in accordance with the law." Although it seems to be impersonal, it is not wrong. ”。 So...... Zheng Yuan thought that Lin Bin was also not governed by others, and he was very happy at that time.

Right now......

Lin Bin was carefully thinking about whether the law of the Han Ministry restricts the acceptance of gifts, which turned into a strange scene, those who gave gifts looked at Lin Bin with blank eyes, but Lin Bin was staring at the gift list as if he was in a daze.

Someone thought, "Think the gift is too thin?" No way! Those gifts are not thin even if they are given to the Son of Heaven in Chang'an! ”

Thinking about it, Lin Bin is very sure that there is a provision in the Han law that restricts officials from receiving gifts, and it seems that only officials are restricted and not the king is restricted, the reason is that the current situation is different from the Qin State around 345 BC, and the situation is different from the Spring and Autumn Period.

"It's better not to accept it, a few days ago, I personally cut down a few officials who took bribes, and now the gifts are not contradictory? So that the subordinates can't accept gifts, but they accept them themselves? Moreover, this is not a gift on behalf of the state, it is a matter of personal acceptance, what will the subordinates think, and what will the civilians think? We don't do things that are inconsistent! ”

Lin Bin's gaze finally moved away from the gift list, and he said gently: "Your kindness...... I accept ......"

The giver smiled so reassuringly that they felt that if they were willing to accept the gift, the rest would be easy. The gift-giver thought to himself, "Now I can get a big prize!" The gift is relatively ordinary lamentation: "Do you always have to fall into the big businessman's journey?" ”

Lin Bin's tone suddenly changed: "Accept it with kindness, but the gift is unacceptable, everyone take back your gift list." ”

Smiles froze on the faces of dozens of people......

Zheng Yuan, who participated in the banquet, smiled heartily, and Zibo, who was sitting next to Zheng Yuan, also nodded secretly, and the two agreed that it would be a good choice for the Legalists to come to the Han Department for development, and they no longer hesitated, and secretly decided to write to the Legalists who were familiar with each other, and invited them to come to the Han Department for development.

Not accepting gifts seems so strange in the eyes of some people, saying that "there must be demons when things go wrong", they think that Lin Bin does not accept gifts because he thinks about greater benefits, and they are thinking about what benefits they can give Lin Bin, and how to negotiate with Han Bu next.

Didn't Lin Bin feel weird in his heart? Although he has a good reputation, he is not so narcissistic as to think that everyone should run to give him gifts, and recently there are suddenly so many people running over to him with eyes and thousands of miles to stutter, there must be a reason for this, but he has not yet figured out where the reason is.

"The rest of the people are full of delicacies, and they are even hard! Friends from afar, isn't it pleasant? Wouldn't it be nice to prepare wine and entertain guests! ”

The Han Department was immediately dumbfounded, they stared at Lin Bin with wide eyes and felt a little incredible, in their eyes Lin Bin was an illiterate person, it was a miracle to be able to pop out of Lin Bin's mouth in classical Chinese, I didn't think that Lin Bin refused the guest's gift to be able to chant such a patchwork, but the meaning was the right word.

"You have come all the way to Xilin, there must be something. Han folk customs do not advocate gift-giving, and folk customs are relatively simple and direct, so don't blame you. ”

People with smiling faces embarrassed......

"Our Han Department stresses fairness and does not take unknown wealth, which is the case with the so-called merit and unhappiness. Today we only talk and laugh and drink, but in the coming day, there will naturally be people who will negotiate with you, and everything has clear rules, and you can discuss with the officials what you want. ”

Those who understand understand in their hearts know that the Han Department does not talk about human feelings, everything is done in accordance with the rules, and they are happy that the operation of human favors cannot achieve the goal at the same time, and everyone has a chance to compete at a clear price, which is much fairer than the black box operation.

Understanding this layer, certain embarrassing things are automatically filtered, the drums continue to play, and the dancing girl continues to dance the subtle and seductive dance......

"Uncle Lin, women in the Central Plains don't look good when they dance, but women in the Western Regions look good when they dance."

“……?”

"Would it be okay for my nephew to send a few women to Uncle Lin?"

“……”

Lin Bin was speechless, and an even more speechless (Lingzi) next to him slapped him directly, plus a supplementary kick, and kicked Cen Junjun to roll the gourd......
