Time passed, and soon ten days passed, and Lin Ze was also preparing to return to Huangsha Town.

Lin Renquan wanted Lin Ze to stay for a few more days, but the atmosphere in Kyoto was indeed a little tense now, and Lin Ze and the Seventh Prince Yan Yucheng had been fighting each other these days, which made Lin Renquan worried all day long, so he didn't stop Lin Ze from returning to Huangsha Town.

Anyway, in a few months, their family will also go to Huangsha Town to hold a wedding for Lin Ze, so Lin Ze decided to return to Huangsha Town in two days.

At noon the next day, Lin Ze sat in the garden of Xiyuan with a relaxed face, with a few dishes on the stone table in front of him, which were very exquisite, two pots of wine, and the fragrance of the wine directly spread throughout the entire back garden.

These dishes and wines are all prepared by Ping'er herself, and the appetizers are all Chinese braised dishes, such as braised pork heart, braised pig tongue, braised large intestine or something.

These pickled vegetables did not exist on the Shenzhou Continent before, it's not that they don't eat these offal, civilians still eat them, but they don't have the spices used in pickled vegetables.

In ancient times, spices were more expensive than gold, and ordinary people couldn't afford them at all, and only some big families and big businessmen could buy them.

The craft of braised vegetables, Lin Ze has already taught Ping'er, and Ping'er can be said to be a genius in cooking, many dishes, as long as Lin Ze personally teaches one side, she will be able to learn it immediately.

Now Lin Ze's three meals, plus snacks and so on, are all made by Ping'er himself.

Opposite Lin Ze, sat the Shadow Hand and the Spear Chuan Ming, these two people were sitting in a somewhat cramped posture, their eyes looking at the fragrant pickled vegetables on the table from time to time, and a glimmer of light could be faintly seen at the corners of their mouths.

It is clear that the Shadow Hand and Spear Akira are greedy for Ping'er's craftsmanship.

The back garden of the West Garden is said to be very large, the size of three or four football fields, but it is very quiet and beautiful, with countless strange flowers and different trees in it, and the whole back garden is full of green leaves and flowers.

It just so happened that it was noon, and the sun was scorching, but here in the back garden, there was only a little ray of sunlight through the gaps in the branches and leaves, sprinkled down, and countless leaves helped Lin Ze and the three of them block the scorching sun in the sky, plus a breeze blowing from time to time, which made the back garden much cooler than the heat outside.

In summer, the back garden of the West Garden is said to be a paradise for summer retreat.

"Zhou Anmin, Mao Chuanming, don't drool there, you guys come over too, come and have a few drinks with me!" Lin Ze greeted with a smile.

He knew the taste of these pickled vegetables that Ping'er had made, so it was not surprising that the Shadow Hand and Akira Spear Chuan reacted.

"Thank you, master, for the reward!" Akira Spearkawa and the Hand of Shadows thanked first, and then they couldn't wait to sit down, pick up their chopsticks, and start enjoying the delicious food on the stone table.

"Well, it's really delicious!" Mao Chuanming took a bite of the marinated large intestine and swallowed it, and the delicious taste made him can't help but admire.

"Yes, it's really delicious, I can't imagine that those dirty-looking offal, after such a cooking, will taste so delicious, it's really unexpected!" said the shadow hand on the side with a look of admiration.

He and Mao Chuan were conquered by the deliciousness of the pickled vegetables early in the morning.

"Hehe......." Lin Ze laughed.

As a Chinese person, he knows the charm of braised vegetables best.

Especially in the summer, braised vegetables are definitely a must-have dish on every table.

Both men and women, young and old, like to eat braised vegetables.

The three of them didn't say much next, drinking and eating extremely delicious braised vegetables, accompanied by the breeze and the shadows of the trees, there was a special flavor.

After an hour or so, the three of them slowly stopped the chopsticks in their hands.

It's not that the three of them are full, but the five or six catties of braised vegetables on the stone table have been eaten. (Because martial artists need to cultivate, each one has a great appetite, and it is normal for ordinary martial artists to eat two or three catties of food, two or three catties of vegetables or something.) ）

After eating the last glutinous and delicious pork head meat, Mao Chuanming first wiped the oil stains on the corners of his mouth with a napkin on the stone table, and then picked up the clear tea that had been prepared a long time ago, and poured tea into the three teacups.

"Master, drink some tea and relieve the greasy just now!" Mao Chuanming handed Lin Ze a cup of tea.

"Hmm!" Lin Ze nodded, took the teacup, and took a sip.

"Whew, it's comfortable!" the deliciousness of the tea made Lin Ze sigh in admiration.

"Zhou Anmin, Mao Chuanming, how did you do what I asked you to do before? After so many days, there won't be no progress, right?" Lin Ze asked as he put down his teacup.

"Master, what you let us do, where will we not bother to do it, master, you can rest assured, everything is going very well, the minions have secretly infiltrated more than a dozen underground /// gangs in Kyoto, and some people have also been directly inserted into the core department, it will not be long before the shadow troops can take charge of the power of these underground /// gangs, and then start your plan. The Shadow Hand stepped forward and said.

"Well, that's good!" Lin Ze nodded with satisfaction, it was only four or five days, and the Shadow Hand had done this, which was indeed good.

"In the first year in the future, I will give you full financial support here, but, from the second year onwards, the Shadow Hand, the Shadow Division in Kyoto will have to be self-reliant, and there will also be spare strength to support Akira Spearkawa, I think he will be a bottomless pit there, recruiting those literati who are not taken seriously, and it will take a lot of money to support, so no matter how much money he wants in the future, as long as it is official business, you will have to support it vigorously, understand?" Lin Ze advised.

The Shadow Hand quickly nodded and replied: "Master, I understand, and this time, after I am ready to gain a firm foothold, I will start with these places first, these places come quickly, and now many casinos in Kyoto have closed many houses because of your previous gambling game, and it is the best time to enter the Kyoto casino."

After gaining a firm foothold in the casino, we began to infiltrate the green house in Kyoto, and the green house is the best place to find out information, and as long as we master the casino and the green house in Kyoto, then we will have a firm foothold in Kyoto, and we will have the right to speak. In the end, the minions still want to infiltrate those low-level officials in Kyoto, as the saying goes, it is difficult to be a Beijing official!

This is difficult to do, not only because Kyoto is full of high-ranking people of two or three grades, and it is difficult to get ahead here, but also because the capital consumption of living in Kyoto is too large, and ordinary officials, especially those at the bottom, local officials who have just entered Kyoto, will really have some difficulties in life. The servants found that nowadays, especially the low-level officials in Kyoto, their lives were also very hard, and they often couldn't eat meat, so the servants thought that as long as we were willing to use the money, these people might be of great help to us in the future. ”

"Very good, Shadow Hand, if you can think of this, it shows that you are really attentive, I am very happy!" Lin Ze praised the Shadow Hand with great satisfaction, making the Shadow Hand very excited in his heart After being planted with the puppet mark, although the Shadow Hand was able to maintain his personality, it was the most important thing in their minds to serve Lin Ze with all their might.

Lin Ze continued: "Hand of Shadows, in the next ten years, the focus of our work will be on the Eighteen Sand Cities, when the time comes, the Eighteen Sand Cities will definitely undergo great changes, in this way, there will definitely be some changes here in Kyoto, so you will be the focus of our ten-year development plan, in this ten years, you must be able to completely penetrate the underground of Kyoto // potential // force, let them be used by me, from now on, even if there is any wind and grass in Kyoto, I must know, the hand of shadows, have you done it?"

"Rest assured, the slave will do his best and die. ”

"Death?" Lin Ze smiled: "Shadow Hand, you are the person I value very much, I don't want you to die because of this matter, we have to grasp the information of Kyoto, but your own safety also needs to be paid attention to, I still want you to establish a network for me that covers the entire Chu State, so, Shadow Hand, you have to be careful, and then be careful." ”

The Hand of Shadow is the person in charge of Lin Ze's best intelligence network, and in this regard, even Akira Spear Chuan is no match for the Hand of Shadow.

In addition, Lin Ze is not one of those heroes in history, for a certain purpose, cold-blooded and abnormal, just like Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, for the sake of the throne, even his father, brother, and younger brother can do it.

Maybe he created the rule of Zhenguan, but it can't hide his notoriety of imprisoning his father, killing his brother, and killing his brother.

Lin Ze doesn't want to be such a person, and he won't be such a person.

Such a person, what else is there besides that throne under his ass?

Family, love, friendship?....... There was nothing, nothing left, only he was alone.

"Thank you for your concern!" the Shadow Hand knelt on the ground with a touched face.

"Okay, get up, we don't need this!" Lin Ze said with a smile.

"Yes, master. The hand of the shadow quickly rose from the ground.

"Zhou Anming, remember, the water here in Kyoto is very deep, the underground forces are criss-crossed, people with a little strength in Kyoto, the family will definitely have secret infiltration, or even direct and secret control, so, you must be careful in doing things, don't easily show your hole cards, even if it seems that you are in control, you have to keep an eye on it, who knows if this is done on purpose by the other party, in order to lead you out of the behind-the-scenes command. In the future, if there is something difficult to decide, you can report it directly to me, understand?" Lin Ze said with a serious face.
