Chapter 797 - Endless Favors
From the royal court officials to the wealthy businessmen of the people, they all hope to chat with Yan Saburo face-to-face and become familiar.
In the past three years of the national change, the pattern of the Wei Wang's court has changed greatly, just like the decaying wood in the rainforest falling, there must be new sprouts. Mo said that there were all kinds of signatures on the post, it was the list of royal court officials that Han Zhao got for Yan Saburo, and he couldn't recognize two out of ten.
This far-reaching upheaval has not yet been completely over. A large number of talents gathered in Shengyi, hoping to find a ladder to the sky before the class was solidified.
This has become a thorny problem for Yan Saburo. His time was limited, and it was impossible for him to meet so many people.
At the critical moment, He Xiaoyuan sent a long-term entourage to the Invitation Garden.
This person's name is Jia Runan, a native of Shengyi, who has served more than ten wealthy families in his Chinese New Year's Eve this year. His family was originally a nobleman in Shengyi, and it was dilapidated more than 20 years ago, but Jia Runan became a decent person again with his own skills, and he could also mix and drink spicy food.
His ability is to know the officialdom structure of Shengyi, local etiquette, wealthy factions, ushering in and sending, and even the preferences of the powerful. If a newcomer wants to mix well in the upper circle, he must hire such a long-term follower, otherwise he can easily offend people.
A long-term entourage like Jia Runan is different from ordinary servants, who do not sign a deed of sale, but only follow an employment agreement, and the remuneration is rising year by year, which is very considerable.
Naturally, Yan Saburo is not short of this money, and only praises Mrs. He's intimateness. He really lacks such expertise right now.
Jia Runan really didn't take his money in vain, and after only half a day of entering the house, he sorted out the posts received by Invite Jingyuan. Among them, which banquets are worth Yan Saburo to visit, which ones should be allowed to visit, which ones can be postponed temporarily, which ones decide whether to see each other depending on the mood, and which ones can be ignored at all, Jia Runan has categorized them.
Even, he even marked the preferences of some nobles. If Yan Saburo goes to a banquet or comes to the door, he can prepare gifts accordingly.
After Chitose reviewed, he also felt that the money hired by Yan Saburo was well spent.
"However, the talents we use now are all recommended by the Protector Mansion, which is not good. She thinks long-term, "You still have to rely on your own bones to grow flesh." ”
So Yan Saburo is busy ushering in the send-off these days, and the favor is good.
The garden is full of people, and horse-drawn carriages arrive from early morning to evening. Climbing friendships and protecting the façade are compulsory courses for every Shengyi noble, and now Yan Saburo is going to make up for it.
After being forced to open for business for seven days like this, even he was a little unbearable: "It's more tiring than practicing the "Dragon Feeding Technique"!" He didn't like to laugh in the first place, but now his cheeks are sore, and he has trouble speaking.
The white cat was even more weak: "When is the end?" She was forced to bind herself to Xiao San, and when he went out, she had to follow. It's so boring to watch him and a group of people talking politely.
Especially from time to time, she has to be invited out of the book box, take two steps to pose, and then listen to the chatter of others.
It's good to be praised, but listen to it ten or twenty times...... A hundred times, it will get boring, especially these people flatter Xiao San and don't even change the words, how many words can they have to praise a cat?
"Soon, soon!" Jia Runan is still in good spirits, Yan Sanlang suspects that this person is actually a cultivator, right?" "Except for the former Zhenbei Hou, Shengyi has not had such a great figure as Yan Gongzi for many years, and everyone is vying to see your demeanor." You must know that even if most nobles call for wind and rain in the local area, they are all good at Shengyi, and no one cares about them at all. "This is the national capital, not all cats and dogs can make people look at each other. It is rare to see such a beautiful master, he has been doing this business for many years, and he has not met two in total, and now he can work under this young man, and he only feels honored.
Jia Runan has a hunch that he may be able to soar with the east wind in the future, so he doesn't feel tired at all now, not at all!
He pulled out another invitation, and the smile on his face was uncompromised: "...... here"
Yan Saburo couldn't help but rub his face, and out of the corner of his eye, he just saw the white cat's feet weak, and he spread it out on the chair: "And?"
"After you finish this last trip, the rest of the invitations depend on your mood, you can see if you want, and you can rest if you want. Jia Runan coaxed him and said, "Although King Huai is a local official, his roots are not in Shengyi, but he guards the western frontier and holds heavy troops, which is worth a while." ”
The white cat's ears suddenly pricked up. Yan Saburo's eyes froze: "King Huai sent me an invitation?"
Is it—that Huaiwang?
"I heard that King Huai just arrived in Shengyi this afternoon, and he sent someone to deliver a post to our house, which shows that he attaches great importance to you. Jia Runan handed over the bronzing post, "Tonight, King Huai's father and son are having a banquet at Xibin Restaurant. ”
"Huaiwang father and son?" Yan Saburo took it and looked at it twice, the official article, the handwriting was neat, and there was no clue other than that. It's just an invitation, and even the words on it are probably done by the wingman, "Si Wenrui is also here?"
"Yes, it seems that you know King Huai better than other nobles. ”
"Who else did he bring?" Yan Saburo squeezed the invitation's hand tightly, "Can you inquire?"
Jia Runan kept smiling: "Please allow the villain to try." ”
After he left, Yan Saburo let out a long breath. Now the last thing he wants to see is Jia Runan.
Now Invite Jingyuan is managed by Huang He, the assets under Yan Saburo's name are managed by Li Kailiang, and the personal relationship is handled by Jia Runan. It can be said that Yan Saburo and Chitose's life in Shengyi is finally on the right track.
The white cat also jumped on the table and began to stretch out his paws to wash his face: "King Huai's father and son are here, so bold." Xiao Mi originally thought that they wouldn't dare to come, right?"
"Well, maybe it's a little bit of a shame, but it's also cautious. The king was about to get married, and as a rule, he went to the temple today to worship his ancestors, and he had to stay in the temple at night. Maybe they figured this out before they went into the city. Yan Saburo groaned, "But why did they choose to hold a banquet tonight?
In the past, he couldn't fight with King Huai, and the nobles and nobles in Shengyi also recently learned about Yan Shichu's name, King Huai lived in the western frontier, so he shouldn't know who he was at all, why did he invite him to the banquet as soon as he arrived in Shengyi?
"Maybe he has a suitable long-term retinue by his side. Chitose didn't care, "Just go, this is Shengyi, what can he do with you?"
As a result, before the sun set, Shi Congyi went to the Invitation Garden and grabbed him to go to the Xibin Restaurant together.
Yan Saburo asked him by the way: "Does the king know that they have entered the capital?"
"Hearing this, the holy face is displeased. Shi Congyi also heard the news, "But the king can't return to Tianyao Palace tonight, so he summons his father and son to enter the palace early tomorrow morning." ”
