If Zhou Renjie, the prefect of Jinling, said that this move was a gratuitous donation to the emerging cause of Daxia, I am afraid that even a pig would laugh and fall. The performance of this duke when they met for the first time was completely unexpected by Yang Zhi. It is said that reaching out does not hit smiling people, not to mention that people's smiling faces are full of weight.

As the saying goes, the mouth of eating people is short, and the hands of people are short. Yang Zhi did not have this taboo, and took the five land deeds unceremoniously, and said with a smile: "There is a prefect of Lao who works for the country, and the governor is ashamed of it, but it is disrespectful." If not, wouldn't it be a good idea to live up to Lord Zhou's intentions? If you are tired because of this, Lord Zhou will become sick and worried, and the governor will not be able to sleep and eat! ”

There is no most shameless, only more shameless. Zhou Renjie couldn't help but curse in his heart, he said that there are only two places for you to choose, who knew that you would take all the orders? You're going to get sick with worry!

Long before Yang Zhi took office, more than one person greeted Zhou Renjie: this person eats soft and not hard, and even the prince of the dynasty has to take a detour when he sees him, and the four-grade master is not a fart in his eyes. If someone dares to ask for your life without asking for a decree, and you have nowhere to complain, this person must be Yang Zhi. But Yang Zhi is also a living person raised by his mother's father, so he can't afford to provoke him, and he is afraid that he will not be soft?

What made Zhou Renjie even more speechless was that Yang Zhi casually took out a few silver tickets, stuffed them into his hands in public, and laughed loudly: "The public funds of the imperial court are spent, how can you let Lord Zhou advance money privately?" Lord Zhou is loyal to the country, and the governor is very grateful, and he must pay for the expenses of his business! Lord Zhou has a reputation for being incorruptible, if he doesn't accept it, is he intentionally bribing the governor? ”

Zhou Renjie almost wanted to go crazy, and even had the heart to strangle Yang Zhi on the spot. The five houses are worth nearly a million taels, and if you give a few thousand taels of broken silver, it means that you cut the eggs and stop the pain! In the future, dig deeper, bribery? Joke! I paid in public!

Zhou Renjie's shamelessness is still a grade worse than Yang Zhi after all. Even if I lend him ten thousand guts. didn't dare to use the trick of winning the enemy by counting the silver ticket in public, so he had to pinch his nose and admit it for the time being.

Jinling has smooth water and land transportation, and after Yang Zhi carefully read the five land deeds, he chose one inside and outside the city, and ordered Cao Yuncheng and Ma Xing to take people to receive it.

Zhou Renjie never believed that the heavy sycophants who thought about what people thought and were anxious about would be slapped on the horse's hooves. It is rumored that Yang Zhi's cunning is no less ferocious. At a young age, he was famous all over the world and was highly valued by today's emperors. How can there be no goods in the belly? If a few land deeds can be easily handled, the governor of customs, the fat shortage of Tianzi No. 1, will definitely not be his turn!

The slight setback of the first confrontation had no impact on Zhou Renjie's "friendship of landlords". After the banquet, Cao Yuncheng and Ma Xing were busy receiving the two houses, while Zhou Renjie accompanied Yang Zhi to serve tea and chat in the back office.

The back office is not only a part of the prefect's official office, but also usually the living place of the prefect's family. The Great Xia official system has very strict restrictions on the official regulations of the corresponding grades, which must not be too large, but not too small. An official like Zhou Renjie who is rich and wealthy. There must be another private residence, and the official office is just a relatively fully functional office space.

In the not very spacious back office, Zhou Renjie actually opened up a very delicate and beautiful small garden. The furniture in the inner hall is made of antique huanghuali wood. It is simple and elegant, without a trace of luxury. The entire back office is spotless and unusually clean. It was late autumn, but in the tea cup was the best Jinling rain flower with tender green and clear soup.

In recent years, there is still a problem of overstepping the system in the daily use of officials. Zhou Renjie's rear office was laid out. It can be described as decent and not half tacky. Rich people are not the same as nouveau riche, this is the real rich people!

Life. The most tangible enjoyment is nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation. Zhou Renjie seems to be also a gluttonous foodie, and he is extremely particular about meals: "The lower officials are not talented, and they especially like food on weekdays." In order to satisfy their appetites, they often do not hesitate to hire kitchen staff. Once the dish is repeated and annoying, it is replaced. Last year, I hired a chef with excellent cooking skills. There are all kinds of dishes, and each one is delicious. Wait until the Governor has rested for a few days, and I beg you to come to the humble house and taste it a little in your busy schedule. I wonder if Xia Guan can have this honor? ”

Don't you just want to invite me to your house for a meal? Sure enough, there is another private residence. The back office is already exquisite, I don't know what kind of grand scene the private residence is? Yang Zhi readily agreed: "Okay! It's a long time coming. The Governor thanked Lord Zhou for his kind invitation. ”

Zhou Renjie saw that Yang Zhilai did not refuse, and his heart suddenly felt a little relieved.

When the two of them were arguing, from time to time, a subordinate who looked like a master invited Zhou Renjie to the side, and whispered something in his ear, but Yang Zhi didn't care.

After sitting idle for less than an hour, Cao Yuncheng and Ma Xing actually returned to the mansion together to resume their lives. Yang Zhi originally wanted to tidy up the two houses before sunset to be able to live in them, which was already very good. I can't help but ask, "How can it be so fast?" ”

Hearing Yang Zhiyu's surprise, Zhou Renjie's well-maintained face couldn't help but be a little proud.

Cao Yuncheng replied respectfully: "Lord Hou, the two mansions have been cleaned up neatly and cleanly, and everything is also complete. As soon as we entered the door, some people said that we had brought a group of servants and maidservants on the orders of the prefect, and even the servants who washed and sewed and mended their clothes were ready. Still...... also sent two beautiful maids, saying that it was convenient to take care of the daily life of the Hou Ye, and they had been placed in the back house in the city for the Hou Ye to live in. ”

Zhou Renjie smiled and said, "Since receiving the report that your Excellency has become the governor of customs, the lower officials have already begun to prepare for the matter. But if there is an omission, please do not blame the Governor of Wanwang! ”

slapped the sycophant to this part, it can be called a super fighter among the sycophants! Yang Zhi smiled: "If the governor doesn't accept it, or if he pays the silver tael, it will be too unkind, isn't it equivalent to slapping Lord Zhou?" Then I thank Master Zhou again for his painstaking kindness! ”

Zhou Renjie secretly sneered in his heart: The million-dollar mansion was sent away by you for a few thousand taels of silver, isn't it a slap in the face? I'm not afraid that you will take more, but I am afraid that you will not want it. Do you think Ben-sama's things are so easy to take? Can you take it for nothing?

Unexpectedly, Yang Zhi then sank his face, pointed at Cao Yuncheng and Ma Xing and reprimanded: "You all know my rules." Military discipline must not be violated, and if you are really bored, stay honestly! After the order, there are now servants and maidservants in both houses, especially the thing in the crotch of the pants! Whoever commits adultery with force or reluctance will be killed. ”

According to Zhou Renjie's expectations, the first step is to focus on soaking in soft Yang Zhi, and the second step is to buy off the enveloping of his subordinates. Seeing that Yang Zhi's restraint on his subordinates was so strict, a chill surged from the bottom of his heart.

Yang Zhi is not a masochist, and has long been accustomed to the life of the superior in this era. Jinling Fengyue, unparalleled in the world. Why Zhou Renjie sent him two beautiful maids, his intention is self-evident. The reason why they didn't refuse, and they didn't have the idea of harming them at all, was just because the back house of the customs governor Yamen really needed two roles equivalent to hotel waiters. Otherwise, you will have to do everything you need to do yourself, such as making the bed and folding the quilts, sprinkling and cleaning the garden, and serving tea to visitors.

The house given by others is also their own land. That night, I went back to the back house of the Yamen, who was selected as the governor of the customs, to sleep, but I didn't expect the egg to hurt badly.

Yang Zhi is tall, handsome and masculine. The two beautiful maids are about sixteen or seventeen years old, with beautiful faces, graceful figures, and bumps. After serving Yang Zhi to wash, he was embarrassed in front of Yang Zhi, and began to untie his clothes.

Yang Zhi hurriedly stopped the two of them: "Stop, stop!" Dare to ask the two girls, what are you doing here? I'm not good at this, I don't have the problem of ordering a maid to stay with me! I'm new to the house today, and I'm not very familiar with this back house, so I'm bothering the two girls to find a room to rest on their own! ”

The two beautiful maids glanced at each other, and in an instant, their faces turned white with fright. Fell to his knees in front of Yang Zhi, and asked tremblingly: "Master Hou, our sisters grew up in Zuixiangfang since childhood, not only do we know a little bit about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also we are innocent virgins. …… Do you dislike our sisters for being from a humble background? Or is it too bad? (To be continued......)
