Chapter 9: Where is he?
Mi Xia Yao and Pei Xingyuan lived in as a foreign business couple, and pretending to be a husband and wife naturally had to play to the end.
The two stayed under one roof, she held the copied books and looked at the technical skills inside, while Pei Xingyuan was sitting at the round table.
They arrived in Jinzhou City at dusk, and she only told the relevant information about the Bai family when it was close to night, and that night, the subordinate reported all the progress to Pei Xingyuan one by one in front of Mi Xia Yao.
In a huge room, except for a hollow screen, not even a shadow can be separated, not to mention that the subordinate doesn't even suppress the voice.
Her ears were uncontrollably listening to the news.
"The scene, the location and the beauties have been properly placed, and according to the master's instructions, we are all ready-made."
"How's the news going?" Pei Xingyuan asked casually, but his actual eyebrows subconsciously looked in the direction of the screen.
The subordinates will act according to people's eyes, he thought that the master meant that there were ears through the screen, and he just wanted to take a step forward, but the other party looked at him with a warning look.
Mi Xia Yao watched the interaction between the master and servant through the screen and playing dumb riddles, only to feel that the two of them were extremely naΓ―ve, so she simply turned around to look at the sleeping baby on the bed.
"Say!" Pei Xingyuan saw that the other party was like an elm pimple, so he moved his feet and resisted kicking.
The subordinate was probably frightened by the kicking, and subconsciously took a step back, buried his head and said: "The news was spread by people earlier, and it was only a gimmick. β
"It doesn't matter if the Zhong family takes the bait or not, focus on the reaction of the Bai family." Pei Xingyuan admonished, and drove this subordinate who couldn't understand people's eyes out.
The room was quiet again, but soon, Pei Xingyuan coughed dryly, trying to draw the screen to the woman to look over.
Mi Xia Yao tucked the quilt for the child, turned around and walked out of the screen, and glanced at him.
was very decisive and rejected the other party, "My duty is to inform you of the information of the Bai family in Jinzhou City, if it is superfluous, don't even think about it." β
"......" Pei Xingyuan seemed to be gradually numb to her words of an uncertain prophet.
But then he didn't give up.
"If you want to go back to the capital next, there must be more tricky things......" He deliberately used the topic of connections in the capital to try to build another relationship.
"Not to mention, the disguised husband and wife were determined by us at the beginning, and tomorrow's Hongmen banquet, I will appear alone, which is not in line with the original plan."
Mi Xia Yao guessed that Pei Xingyuan could become a person in Dali Temple, and he must have his unique advantages, but she never thought of it.
This is really a brazen class!
Looking at it coldly, the man sitting on the round stool raised a decent and handsome smile, Danfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, "You said yes, madam." β

There is a large natural lake in the center of Jinzhou City, some rich people enjoy life, and will spend a lot of money to open a painting boat here to swim in the lake, which is called a good scene.
Mi Xia Yao was finally persuaded by Pei Xingyuan yesterday and reluctantly changed into a purple Luo skirt that matched him. But because of her previous identity as the wife of Jingzhou Tongzhi, her gorgeous facial features were changed by a simple disguise.
On the bow of the most cumbersome and spacious painting boat on the lake, a couple wearing purple clothes and relatively ordinary appearance are greeting the merchants who have come to accept the invitation one by one.
Soon, the man who was dressed fairly plainly, but had a poop belly, boarded the boat.
Pei Xingyuan was able to maneuver around these small businesses with ease, until Bai Hongzhuo, the head of the Bai family, entered his sight.
He and Mi Xia Yao glanced at each other, and soon the two surrounded Bai Hongzhuo's side.
Taking the initiative to speak is a set of nonsense that panders to others and boasts. Mi Xia Yao came today, and her main task was to simply stand by Pei Xingyuan's side as an ornament.
Bai Hongzhuo was also touted, and after raising the commercial value of the two to the highest, Pei Xingyuan quietly cut into the formal theme.
"My friends from the Chamber of Commerce said that a set of sponsorship costs in Jingzhou City has become popular recently, and after the middlemen convert the waste into finished products and sell them, they will double to triple the cost according to the proportion of the subsidized cost."
Mi Xia Yao originally didn't have the heart to listen to this group of men boasting.
But Pei Xingyuan's set of fortune games came out, which reminded her of old things.
In her previous life, she vaguely heard Duan Honglin mention the deeds of this chamber of commerce in the backyard, and many people listened to the profits and invested wildly, but in the later stage, the middleman disappeared overnight and swept away a lot of silver taels.
In an instant, many originally well-off and wealthy merchants became homeless.
Those people surrendered to no avail, and those who did not accept their fate were willing to fall, and those who accepted their fate were rebuilt in an attempt to make a comeback. In short, because of this incident back then, the vitality of the Daqi Chamber of Commerce was greatly damaged.
But she never thought that the initiator of all this thing turned out to be Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple!?
Didn't he check the corruption account books on the surface? Why do you want to be such a wealthy person behind your back?
Here Bai Hongzhuo listened thoughtfully to the Hongtu cake described by Pei Xingyuan, as a Bai family who started by selling medicinal materials, he naturally couldn't extinguish the burning desire for money in his bones.
"Don't hide it from the big boss, my wife and I heard about it, and we don't have to work hard, we want to come over with hope and gamble." Pei Xingyuan deliberately muttered in a low voice, bringing out the atmosphere of this whispering to the extreme.
Bai Hongzhuo was fished to death by him, and soon his heart itched. The eyebrows and eyes are obviously full of imminent emotions, but they still have to pretend to be cautious and cautious.
"Thank you, Brother Ren, for sharing information, this matter of investing money can be big or small, I have to go back and think about it more."
Listening to the words of the Bai family, Mi Xia Yao couldn't help but sweat for the Bai family.
If Shaoqing of Dali Temple can take the initiative to attack, it must be someone with a higher position behind him who is controlling all this......
She looked at Bai Hongzhuo, who was smiling greedily in her eyes, and for a moment, she couldn't help but feel God's pity in those bright eyes.
According to the conversation with Bai Hongzhuo, Pei Xingyuan repeated it with the rest of the merchants, and soon all the merchants on this ship were thinking about the so-called investment in Jingzhou City.
At this moment, the boat has swam to the center of the lake.
The group of people in the room were buzzing and discussing, but in Mi Xia Yao's opinion, it was like a group of dying people who were trying to steal another half of life from the sky.
There is no need to save these money-grubbing people.
But she really didn't understand where Pei Shaoqing of Dali Temple was relying on to dare to collect so many silver taels so unscrupulously.
In order to breathe, she simply left the cabin and walked to the bow of the ship.
I don't know when it snowed outside, she gathered her coat, and suddenly remembered the heavy snow in her past life, thousands of miles of ice, thick snow buried in the soil.
I'm afraid it's going to happen again......
