Chapter 962: Huang Mansion
Huang Feihu, a general of the Shang Dynasty. Seven generations of the family guarded the border passes for the Shang Dynasty, with outstanding military achievements and explosive military value, which can be described as the most famous commander of the army in addition to Kai Wenzhong and his interception. Later, due to the border troubles, Huang Feihu was relieved of his military power and lived in Chaoge City for a long time, and worshiped as General Wucheng. It can be described as a very high status.
Huang Mansion, Huang Feihu's mansion.
On this day, a half-grown child in a cloth coat and a small hat walked out of the back door of the mansion with an empty burden behind a middle-aged man. At this time, the sky was also white, and the kid pulled his head, yawned, and didn't seem to wake up.
"Hui! You kid keep up! You yawned and didn't sleep last night, if you don't cheer up, don't think about having food today!" the middle-aged man shouted in a displeased voice, very dissatisfied with the dozing appearance of the kid behind him.
The half-sized man in the cloth coat and hat hurriedly followed a few steps, and said with a smile: "Huang Guanshi, I woke up from sleep, woke up! ”
"It's good to know, if you take two steps faster, you won't be able to buy the freshest lotus seeds when it's too late!"
Only then did the two of them speed up their pace, and walked all the way from the west of the city, and only after walking for a meal did they see a market in the distance, which was lit with torches and other lighting fires, and there were many figures, and a lot of noise came from there, which was quite lively.
This is the West Market, one of the four major bazaars in the huge city of songs. The main products are fresh ingredients. Whether it is the nobles in the imperial city, the princes and ministers, or the ordinary people, if they need to eat, the ingredients have to be purchased here. Every morning, farmers and pawns from various places outside the city deliver their goods to this western market. So, it's also the best time to buy the freshest ingredients.
The half-sized son "Hui" in the cloth coat and hat was a small servant who had just entered the Yellow Mansion and was sold to the Yellow Mansion by slave traders. A big living person was sold for less than ten taels of silver. But he didn't know that this Hui was actually selling himself.
"This grape is good, moderately sweet and sour, buy three or four mentions, go back to Mrs. should like it...... Cabbage, chrysanthemum, and sandwich meat are all bought...... Hey, yes, and Qingbo fish? How much is a pound?......
This steward's name is Huang Ping, who has been on an errand in the Huang Mansion for generations, is not a slave, and is very trusted by the Huang Mansion with a salary. It is said that this Huang Pingzu did not have a surname, and later he was appreciated by the Huang family and gave him the surname Huang, which was considered to be a powerful person in the Huang Mansion. Now this Huang Pingtian is the purchasing manager of Huangfu, and the most important job every day is to buy all kinds of ingredients needed in the house for a day in the West Market.
Hui, who was previously eroded in by Zhu Liu from the Daoless Underground Mansion, turned into the appearance of a half-sized man, familiar with the Yellow Mansion while waiting for an opportunity to collect intelligence to complete the task. So far, it looks like everything is going well.
The burden on his shoulders grew heavier and heavier, and soon it was almost full. The cost of two large baskets is not small, and it only needs to be considered almost enough for one day. The lotus seeds that Huang Ping had been talking about were also bought, and the freshest ones were said to have been picked from the pond in the middle of the night last night. I'm going to take it back and make my wife's favorite rock sugar lotus seed soup.
After shopping, Huang Ping carried lotus seeds and some ingredients that could not be squeezed, urging this Hui to go faster, and the ingredients were sent back quickly, and they were quickly taken care of, and they were ready for lunch.
The ingredients in the two baskets are almost nearly 100 catties, which is as light as nothing for a ghost cultivator like Hui, but he still puts on a gritted tooth and dies force, and his steps are quite heavy, but he still listens to Huang Ping's words and tries to go as fast as possible.
Huang Ping secretly praised this kid for not being old and still having a lot of strength, and said: "Go faster, when you get home, I will add meat and vegetables to you at noon!"
"Okay, good yellow steward......"
All the way to home. The burden was lifted, and the ingredients were sent to the kitchen in separate categories. Then he followed the washing and taking care of the vegetables, and worked until the sun got up, and the sky was bright, and Hui had time to eat breakfast. In a short time, a maid and maid dressed in silk came out of the moon gate, and carried the hot breakfast from the kitchen with a high spirit, leaving a burst of fragrance along the way.
"Hey, did you see it? Just now, Xiao Cui's sassy hooves threw a flattering eye at Lao Tzu!
"Get out of the way! People are staring at you, who made you stare at people's chests like dead eyes? If you were me, a big mouth would slap you in the face Believe it or not?"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Hui boy, hurry up, go fetch water after eating, don't be stunned. Hehe, you're also thinking about those maid sisters? Don't dream, those sisters are not something that slaves like us can mess with. You just have to work hard now, and it is only right that you can get rid of slavery as soon as possible!"
"Oh, got it, Uncle He. Hui replied honestly, ate the leftovers in three or two, and then picked up two empty buckets and went out to work.
But no one knew that Hui, a seemingly inconspicuous boy, had been making all-pervasive inquiries since he arrived in this Yellow Mansion.
Divine thought of disguise, this is a compulsory course for a secret agent, and it is also a life-threatening housekeeping skill. The survivability of a spy depends largely on how powerful he is at the means of concealment. Because once the divine thoughts are exposed and detected by the target, the mission will fail, and the body will die.
As a top spy in the Iron Guard, Hui has long been perfected in the concealment methods of divine thoughts. He himself knows where his strength is, and he also knows where his limits are. Before he sold himself into this Huang Mansion, he had tested it with his divine thoughts, and the highest cultivation in it was the general Huang Feihu, whose strength was estimated to be about to be consummated in the God Transformation Realm. But this kind of cultivation was not enough to perceive his divine thoughts and peep.
You must know that Hui's Divine Thought Technique is a means written by Yan Jun, and it is not impossible to hide it for two or three great realms in Yue Xiu. Therefore, Hui entered the Huang Mansion to make sure that there was no problem before making the decision.
After some divine exploration, all the big and small things in this Yellow Mansion are under Hui's control. Even every day, everyone in the house from top to bottom said and did something, and he knew exactly how many times he went to the toilet.
Huang Feihu has been suddenly restless recently, as if he has been stimulated by something in the court, and the evil qi on his body always seems to be scattered out of nothing. It should be due to the uncontrollable anger in the middle. The team leader is asked to coordinate the brothers of the third group to confirm. ”
This is a secret means of communication, using a formation, it is also secret, it is the first time that Hui Zai Huangfu has been summoned to Zhu Liu after lurking, and it can be regarded as the first piece of information, although it is not complete.
And Zhu Liu, who was in the tavern, naturally did not delay, and quickly passed this message to the hands of the third group leader again. The two groups of spies in Chaoge cooperate with each other tacitly, and intelligence sharing and efficiency are the only guidelines they follow.
Soon, the third group of spies who also successfully infiltrated the imperial city sent back an echo: Recently, Huang Feihu got some rumors in the court, and it is said that King Shou has praised Huang Feihu's wife for her beauty many times at banquets. In addition, King Shou is lustful, so he doesn't like to listen to many rumors, so Huang Feihu is angry in his heart......
