On the second day after the promulgation of the holy decree, Xia Shunshui returned to the capital with Yin Tai, Yin Tai was to return to the capital to hand over the emperor's errand, and Xia Shunshui was to return to the capital to resume his post.

It's just that when they left, they didn't return the same way, but went directly north along the Nanliu River, and after entering the Xiangjiang River Basin, they went down the Yangtze River to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and then went north by boat.

It is completely conceivable that whether it is Yin Tai, who is fortunate enough to become a messenger, or Xia Shunshui, who is in the official resumption department, his fate has changed. In the near future, there will be a chance to return to the big stage of the capital.

In the blink of an eye, December is quietly approaching.

Lin Haoran gradually put aside many affairs and began to calculate the days seriously. Because the birthday of her wild girl is coming soon, the tiger girl is about to celebrate her eighth birthday, a memorable day.

For the birthday of the tiger girl, his brother attaches great importance to it, and began to post early to invite guests from all walks of life. Like last year, he is going to hold a grand birthday for Hu Niu.

On the sixth day of the lunar month, Leizhou City looks very festive.

On this special day, the joint workshop released a bombshell: full-time employees have a day off.

In this era of employment without the concept of holidays, this is no less than a great welfare, which makes the group of female workers extremely excited, flocking to the streets of Leizhou in groups, hoping that every day is the birthday of the tiger girl.

Some savvy merchants also saw the business opportunity and played promotional cards one after another. Like Hua Yingrong's rouge gouache shop, there is a 50% off promotion, and there are exquisite gifts for a certain amount of purchase.

In addition, in order to celebrate the birthday of the tiger girl, fireworks and official lanterns will be burned at the gate of the Chenghuang Temple at night, and the best opera troupes will be invited from Guangzhou City to perform the program.

With such a lively occasion and such a powerful publicity, even if the ordinary people of Leizhou know that today is the birthday of the tiger girl, this day is like a festival.

Lin Mansion, the door is full of lights, full of festive atmosphere.

Tall carriages or fashionably dressed men and women appeared on the streets of Leizhou City, rushing towards a house in Xiguan, all of whom were honored to be invited to the birthday banquet.

Lin Haoran did not invite too many people to the birthday banquet, officials from the Leizhou Prefecture and Haikang County Governments, members of the United Business Group, and some well-known local squires.

Hu Niu invited a lot of people, in addition to Zhang Min's earliest women, there are also the newly acquainted second-generation United Gang and some female workers in the joint workshop, and the other is the large group of clansmen in Changlin Village.

When these guests arrived at the Lin Mansion, they first handed in the post, and then registered the gift list in the front yard, and then they were led to the tables and chairs in the courtyard inside, where fresh melons and fruits were entertained.

Many of the invited guests do not ask for how expensive the gift is, but to be auspicious, or the tiger girl likes it.

If it is a local official, it is indeed possible to use his name to make money. But Lin Haoran is the largest shareholder of Lianhe Workshop, and his financial resources are much higher than any one person, so it is impossible to covet this money.

Some people who know the roots know that this is a kind of attention that Lin Haoran attaches to his sister, and it is held to please his sister, so no one tries to give expensive gifts to bribe Lin Haoran.

After all, Lin Haoran's identity was here, and he didn't come to the front to receive him in person, and no one had enough face to need him to greet him, so he followed his subordinates and Shen Liuye and others to discuss tea in the flower hall.

The tiger girl in red clothes honestly stayed at the reception, looking very excited. The whole face was red, the moth eyebrows were lightly raised, and the eyes revealed a bright light, showing a restrained excitement.

"Oops! Su Niang, you gave too much gift money, I can only charge fifty yuan! With the arrival of Zhang Min and others, Hu Niu expressed a warm welcome, but chose to refuse the gift money.

Su Niang was embarrassed, but Zhang Min next to her took the initiative to back down and said: "You still don't understand the character of the tiger girl, you just follow the tiger girl, let's give each of you a gift of fifty yuan, and take advantage of the tiger girl!" ”

"Zhang Min, I don't lose it, look there!" Hu Niu looked at no one on the left and right, and stretched out the pile of valuable gifts and lowered her voice.

Zhang Min and the others looked at her fingers, and they couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Hu Niu's birthday banquet almost invited all the squires of Leizhou City, and these people made a lot of money, and Hu Niu undoubtedly made a lot of money. And what makes them happy is that the tiger girl obviously regards them as her own, so she follows them so much.

Tiger Niu stayed here, in addition to thanking the people who came to her birthday banquet, that is, the amount of this gift money was stuck. For her, a few taels of silver is nothing, but the other party is a lot of households.

After seeing Zhang Min and the others coming, she also wanted to talk to them, so she took out a list and told Lin Jinyuan seriously: "Jin Yuan, as well as their gift money, can not exceed fifty yuan, you know?" ”

Lin Jinyuan knew that this money was not enough for even a plate of dishes, but he understood the weight of Hu Niu's words, so he took the list and nodded seriously.

Since ancient times, people have been separated from their stomachs, and it is inevitable that some people are not necessarily good for others.

Qian Baiguan is a veteran squire in Leizhou City, who has some prestige and has a stake in Chengxin Rice Bank. This summer, he's ready to make a big profit. But they never expected that their rice hoarding plan ended in failure, not only did they not make a lot of money, but they lost a lot of money, which can be said to have lost their family.

Zhao Bakun is a deputy thousand households of Leizhou Wei, and he finally found a backer in the Guangdong Dusi, and originally had great hopes of rising to a thousand households. It's just that with Lin Haoran forcibly intervening in Lei Zhouwei's affairs, his original subordinates were all raised to 1,000 households, but he was demoted to 100 households for his crimes.

Cheng Deming is a canonical historian of Haikang County, and was isolated by his colleagues for offending Lin Leigong at the beginning of his tenure. Now the situation in the county government is becoming more and more difficult, and once the three years expire, they will definitely be directly assigned to more remote places.

With all these things, they have great hostility towards Lin Haoran, and they even wish Lin Haoran died violently.

It's just that even though they have a lot of dissatisfaction with Lin Leigong, when they receive the invitation, they have to obediently accompany the smiling face to send a congratulatory gift, and they don't dare to be known to this Lin Leigong about the hostility.

However, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and they faintly saw a ray of victory.

Because Lin Haoran's position as a reserve road in Haibei has been officially removed, and his holy grace has been lost, I am afraid that he will be beaten by Wang Bai, the political envoy of Guangdong who has been forbearing, and this Lin Lei Gong will become a lost dog.

When they saw that Lin Haoran dared to celebrate his sister's birthday in such a high-profile manner, they expected that Wang Bai would take advantage of this to make trouble and directly let this arrogant Lin Leigong fall into a pulp.

But at this time, a servant hurriedly came in from the outside and went straight to Lin Hao, who was greeting guests in the flower hall, which immediately attracted the attention of many guests.

"There are officials from Guangzhou who come to congratulate the tiger girl on her birthday!"

The news soon came that a passenger ship from Haojing to Leizhou was moored at the Leizhou wharf, and some Guangdong officials and representatives were heading here, claiming that they were going to celebrate the birth of the tiger girl.
