415 Banquet
When Hu Guang took Kang Quanan and the others over, it was still early, and there was still some time before lunch. Because of the purpose of coming this time, An Ping and An Yue naturally didn't let them follow.
At the door of the restaurant, it was still yesterday's little two, and when he saw yesterday's noble son coming again, he still greeted him with a smile.
At this time, Li Dingguo already had experience, and he didn't wait for the second child to speak, so he instructed him: "I still want to be in yesterday's private room, and lead the way!" ”
What was surprising was that when he saw this guy bowing, it was ninety degrees away, and then he raised his head and said with a smile: "Guest officer, I'm really sorry, the private rooms on the third floor have already been booked." How about the villain take the guests to the private room on the second floor? ”
When Hu Guang heard this, he frowned, the three private rooms on the third floor were all booked, so this stroke was a bit big. I came here this time so that Kang Quanan and them could also observe and learn, if they changed the private room on the second floor, what would it mean?
A guard who came yesterday saw Hu Guang's face, and immediately shouted angrily at the little er: "Why, did you not give money yesterday or did you give too little, dare to perfunctory my son-in-law, be careful that I smash your shabby restaurant......"
"No, no, the guest officer laughed, it's really not." Xiao Er hurriedly explained with a smiling face, "It's my host who wants to hold a send-off banquet on the third floor, it's really not perfunctory......"
Hu Guang heard this, his heart moved, what kind of send-off banquet does Fan Yongdou want to hold in a place as big as the third floor, won't it be to prepare to transport goods out of customs and see off the envoy of Jianyu, right?
Thinking of this, he immediately interrupted Xiao Er, and asked with an unhappy face: "Are you easy to deceive when you are the son of this son?" Even if your host wants to hold a send-off banquet, one private room is not enough, and you still need three private rooms? Hmph, this son has money! ”
When Li Dingguo on the side saw it, he hurriedly cooperated with this and took out a bag of money and threw it in his hand. A person like Xiao Er who deals with money all day long. At once, I could tell that there was indeed a lot of silver in it.
Xiao Er was about to kneel on the ground and kowtow, and hurriedly explained: "Childe doesn't know, today the owners of the major merchants in the city will come to see him off, so there are more people." The proprietor thought that it was too crowded, so he ordered the three private rooms to be closed to the public. ”
When Hu Guang heard this, he was even more sure in his heart. It must be that the Jianyu envoy is preparing to leave, and the eight great Jin merchants and other merchants who are not famous but are just as close to Jianlu, and those merchants who do business with Jianlu, want to come and see Jianlu off.
With Fan Yongdou's financial resources, on such an occasion, he naturally had to be a little bold, and used the entire third floor as a banquet venue, firstly, there were no idle people, and secondly, it seemed atmospheric.
But this information can be said from the second child's mouth. I'm afraid it's not once or twice like this. And Jianyu will appear in Zhangjiakou, and it is estimated that qualified merchants in the city know it. Not well, even the garrison of Zhangjiakou Castle knows.
After thinking about this, after making trouble again, Hu Guang complied with Xiao Er's intention and chose the private room on the second floor. Because he came early, he also chose the private room he wanted, and he could see the stairs leading to the third floor.
The guards confirmed that there was no one in the private rooms on either side. There were no outsiders singing in the house, so Hu Guang told them everything he thought in his heart. Then tell them to stare at the staircase leading to the third floor, to see if there is any special person?
This can be regarded as a course of intelligence acquisition and analysis, especially Li Dingguo and Kang Quanan, who are the most attentive and pay attention to the movements outside.
It didn't take long for luncheers to come one after another. And those who make it to the third floor. Also began to appear.
Hu Guang didn't go over, but just asked a few guards to make some movement to eat to cover Li Dingguo and Kang Quanan, who were observing the situation outside.
After about half an hour, the people upstairs should have arrived and started to push the cups and change the lamps. And Hu Guang and others settled the account. I got out of the private room and prepared to go back.
When they went out, they could see two guards with knives standing at the staircase leading to the third floor, apparently to prevent unrelated people from waiting upstairs.
As soon as they returned to the inn, after An Ping'an Yue and them came to greet and returned, Hu Guang asked Li Dingguo and Kang Quanan to write down their respective experiences.
As soon as he heard this, Kang Quanan immediately made a bitter face. About three quarters of an hour later, after Hu Guang had already finished reading what Li Dingguo had written, he handed in the paper timidly.
Hu Guang took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile. Not only is the number of words not as many as Li Dingguo's, but there are also typos, and even many places are replaced by pinyin.
"Not bad!" Hu Guang smiled and praised, "You often have reconnaissance missions, but you have been able to express your meaning in less than a year, which is rare!" ”
As soon as he heard Hu Guang's words, Kang Quanxin finally breathed a sigh of relief and passed a hurdle.
Hu Guang's praise was not to comfort Kang Quanan. In terms of his level of writing, it is indeed good, after all, the time is too short.
Hu Guang thought about this, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. There are still too few talents called the Heavenly Army, and when reading and literacy can really be popularized, everyone will be able to do so, and when the Heavenly Army will be called the Heavenly Army, there will be no worries about talents!
After he finished reading it, he showed each other the "rolls" handed over by the two, and after the two of them read each other's, he smiled and commented: "The observation of both of you is okay, at least who is Fan Yongdou, those merchants may be one of the eight Jin merchants, you all guess the same." ”
"As for Jianyu's envoy, you can also speculate from the other party's walking and accompanying Fan Yongdou that it should be regarded as eight or nine inseparable."
Speaking of this, Hu Guang's face sank a little and said: "As for your conclusion, you say that Jianyu will be in these two days, and it is likely that he will go back tomorrow, which I also agree." ”
Kang Quanan and Li Dingguo saw that their speculations and conclusions were affirmed by the chief, but the chief did not look happy, and knew in their hearts that the chief was also sorry for his inability to do anything this time.
The two of them were about to say something, when suddenly there were many footsteps in the corridor outside the door, and they could hear that there were quite a few people, and they were still in a hurry.
This situation had never happened before, which made Hu Guang and others vigilant. Could it be that there was a flaw that exposed the claws of the imperial court? Or is it the behavior of himself and others these days, so that the people of the Eight Great Jin Merchants are aware that they are spying on them?
Either way, it's not a good situation. It's better to be the people walking in the hallway, just go to the next room, so that even if it's a false alarm, it's better than something.
No matter what, Kang Quanan, as the captain of the guard, was the most nervous. After glancing at Hu Guang, he hurriedly walked out of the door, wanting to go over to see what was going on.
By the way, isn't there a companion at the door to protect against the wind? If there is such a movement, why don't you come in and explain the situation? (To be continued.) )
