When the wind and rain on the Yellow River were raging, and Cao Si and the caravan were trapped in the rain on the south bank, Qin Lin and the brothers had already rested comfortably in the inn in Fengling Town, first soaking their feet in hot soup and hot water, and then instructed Xiao Er to take out a jar of famous Fenjiu from Xinghua Village, Shanxi, cut a few catties of cooked beef, and drink a few cups.

The summer rain came and went quickly, just waiting for an hour, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and suddenly the wind stopped and the clouds stopped and the rain stopped, and a round of red said was shining in the sky.

Seeing that it was still early, Qin Lin simply decided to rush to Puzhou and save the night in Fengling Town.

Puban city side long passing water, cangwu wilderness does not return to the clouds, Puzhou is also known as Puban, is located in the east bank of the Yellow River fifty miles north of Fengling Town, is the capital of Dashun in ancient times, Sima Qian's historical records call this place "in the world".

After the rain, the air is fresh and pleasant, Qin Lin and his entourage gallop on horseback, half an hour to run the fifty miles of road to Puzhou City, only to see several mountains in the east, a ten-mile-long slope extends out, go straight down to the Pujindu on the bank of the Yellow River to the west, Puzhou City is located on this long slope, so it is also called Puban.

Although the city of Puzhou is not big, it is surrounded by the mountains and peaks in the east, the Yellow River in the west, and a long saka winds like a dragon, and the city of a little year is extraordinary.

A few native soldiers guarding the city gate saw a group of people coming from a distance, so they greeted them early, and before they could ask, the prince at the head was a few pieces of broken silver thrown down: "Where is the general flag of Jinyi Guard?" Take me there! ”

The soldiers were surprised and delighted to receive the silver, and they were busy leading the way the day before yesterday, and their hearts turned out to be Ti Cai, no wonder they were so magnificent, but the brocade uncle in our city only took the silver to go in, how many times did he see him rewarded? This man from Beijing has a different bearing.

Puzhou belongs to the management of Pingyang Prefecture in Shanxi, is a scattered state in the interior, under the jurisdiction of Linjin, Wanquan and other five counties, should only be stationed in Jinyiwei small banner or not set up Jinyiwei, but Pujindu and Fenglingdu are the same as the big ferry on the Yellow River, using the form of pontoon bridge, for Hedong, Hebei to take the land route into the throat of the key, so the imperial court specially stationed a Jinyiwei general flag.

This term's general flag is surnamed Gui, called Gui Youhua, Qin Lin just put the transfer order in, this old man came out with a spring breeze on his face, knelt on the ground with a snap, banged and knocked his head three times, and reported his resume loudly according to the rules of the military attaché: "Humble Gui Youhua, in the first year of Longqing, he was blessed to make up for the captain of Jinyi, Longqing was promoted to a small flag in six years, and the Puzhou general flag was awarded in the seventh year of Wanli, and General Qin was greeted here!" I don't know that the general came from afar, and he was not welcome from afar, and he was guilty of capital crimes! ”

Seeing this, Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali nodded secretly, if they meet someone like Mo Zhigao in Qiongzhou, they will inevitably have a lot of trouble, this Gui Youhua is so polite, we have saved a lot of work.

"Chief Gui is too polite, Qin is guilty of meritorious service, this fashion is the status of a school captain, how dare you accept your gift?" Qin Lin said a few polite words in his mouth, and helped Gui Youhua up with both hands, only to see that this person had a short and chubby figure, an oil-soaked yellow face, no beard, small eyes, a big mouth, and a smooth face.

Gui Youhua was extremely humble, bowed his back and stood obliquely beside him, made a long gesture, and said with a sneer: "General Qin is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and he is Gui's official boss of the guard, and this etiquette cannot be abolished." Besides, the general's name moves to Jinghua and reaches the heavens, and the saint is extremely long, so he has to be restored, who dares to treat the general as an ordinary captain? ”

Lu Yuanzhi's fat face shook, and all the official school brothers also smiled, and they all felt that this Gui Zongqi was a lovely person, and every word was said to the heart.

Qin Lin also seemed to be very happy, and kept encouraging Gui Youhua, with the intention of using Gui Youhua again after the recovery in the future, and the guests and hosts were happy for a while.

After drinking a few cups of tea in the General Banner Office, and greeting each other was almost over, Qin Lin asked casually: "Since this official has made meritorious contributions to the Holy Order, he must do something, I don't know what arrangements General Gui has arranged?" ”

This...... Gui Youhua looked embarrassed, leaned on his body, his buttocks were only next to a little chair, and said with a bitter face: "General Qin's eyes are like electric interrogation of yin and yang, but, but we are actually a small place here, and Jinyiwei has nothing to do, or, General Qin will first walk around and visit the scenery of Sanjin?" ”

"Okay, good," Qin Lin said with a smile: "This official came from afar, and he saw Kaifeng, Luoyang, Hanguguan, and Fenglingdu along the way, but I want to see how the scenery of the Three Jin Dynasty is different from the scenery of the Central Plains." ”

Gui Youhua was overjoyed, counted with his fingers, and said that the Pujin Yellow River pontoon bridge in the west of the city has been well-known for thousands of years, and the stork tower on the side of the Yellow River is the four famous buildings in the world, and the Yellow Crane Tower, Yueyang Tower, Tengwang Pavilion are equally famous, there is a universal rescue temple in the east of the city, it is the place where Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying made love in the "West Chamber", and they are very interesting.

Bai Shuanghua frowned: What the hell is this guy doing?

Qin Lin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he suddenly looked left and right, and said sneakily: "Old Gui, the scenery alone is nothing to see, I don't know what else is interesting in your place?" ”

"Linjin Wuwangzhai, the salt pond of Siyancheng (Yuncheng, Shanxi) are also famous places," Gui Youhua thought about it, and said: "Crossing the Yellow River to the west is Huayin, Huayue is in danger, and the top is small in the world, and General Qin can also go for a walk when he is idle." ”

Qin Lin was stunned at first, and then laughed evilly, "Old Gui, you will be mistaken, I am asking you what kind of romance you have." ”

Ahem, Bai Shuanghua coughed dryly twice and reminded Qin Lin, no matter what the hell you do, anyway, this sect leader will not pretend to be Hua Shuangshuang anymore.

Gui Youhua was stunned for a moment, and then laughed secretly, he knew that this guy was greedy and lustful, but he didn't expect to be in such a hurry, but this is good......

"We are the most famous in Shanxi, in addition to Fenjiu and Lao Chen Vinegar are Datong Mansion girls, and several green buildings in the city are authentic Datong Mansion small-footed girls, tsk, the subtleties of the deeds can not be exhausted, and please experience it yourself, hahaha," Gui Youhua Yin laughed, and made a look at Qin Lin that all men in the world understand.

Qin Lin also laughed and squeezed his eyes: "This official has met the beauties of the south in the Qinhuai River in Nanjing and the West Lake in Hangzhou, and now he wants to make friends with a few rouges from the north and appreciate the customs and customs of Shanxi." ”

The two sides talked happily, looking at Qin Lin like that, he simply introduced Gui Youhua as the first confidant in his life, and he talked about the words in the Qinglou Chu Pavilion.

Bai Shuanghua was sullen when he heard it, even if he knew that Qin Lin was mostly making trouble, but hearing him say those words, he was a little uncomfortable after all.

It wasn't until it was getting late that Qin Lin said goodbye and left, Gui Youhua wanted to set up a drink to catch the wind and wash the dust, but Qin Lin politely refused, saying that he had just arrived in Puzhou and wanted to find a place to live, and he would bother him when he settled down.

Out of the Jinyi Wei General Banner station, Qin Lin's smiling face suddenly sank, others wanted to ask but it was not easy to ask, after a while, he smiled, first find a home inn to live, and then let the brothers of the official school inquire around, to see where there is a suitable house, it doesn't matter whether to rent or buy.

Puzhou, Shanxi Province is located in the inland west, whether it is Wufeng Maritime Merchants or Cao Gang are out of reach, there is no one here to prepare a house for Qin Lin, everything has to be done by yourself, fortunately, Puzhou is Hedong, Hebei and Guanzhong are connected by land, caravans are weaving everywhere, there are many inns, our Qin chief is not bad for money, choose the best to live first.

Called a table of banquets, Qin Lin, Bai Shuanghua, Lu Yuanzhi, Niu Dali four big horses of gold knife eating and drinking, before eating, there was a school captain brother happily came back to report, in the west of the city found a three-entry courtyard, a Jin merchant surnamed Liu bought down, this person was in a hurry to sell, five hundred silver will be sold.

Oh? Qin Lin raised his eyebrows, picked his teeth with a toothpick, and walked over unhurriedly.

Sure enough, it is a good courtyard, the building is eaves and arches, the windows and beams are carved with paintings, the ink and blue bricks of one color are paved, the houses are high and low, quite Shanxi flavor, and the Jiangnan and Beijing teachers are very different, and it is located on Pusaka, looking at the scenery of the Yellow River in the west, and the old site of the stork tower can be seen by pushing the window.

Jin Shang, surnamed Liu, laughed with him, and said in a Shanxi accent: "Sir, this house is the top of the best, and you won't suffer a loss if you buy it against the top!" ”

"Five hundred silver, it's a little expensive...... Qin Lin scratched his scalp, "How about four hundred?" ”

Oops, Chief Qin cares about this? The captain who came to talk was a little anxious, Puzhou is the three Jin Dynasty, and the land price is only slightly inferior to the north and south of Beijing, Hangzhou and Yangzhou, just now there is a house that is half smaller than this, and the owner is less than 800 free to talk about it.

Who knew that Boss Liu hesitated a little, and then gritted his teeth fiercely: "That's it, four hundred is four hundred, who made you anxious to go back to your hometown?" The servants in the house are all hired by local clean white families, please treat the chief kindly. ”

How did it be? The officials and schools took a look at Qin Lin again, no wonder the golden ship owner of the Wufeng Maritime Merchant liked the chief so much, it turned out that he was still a genius in business.

Soon asked the Zhongbao to write the contract, Lu Yuanzhi counted out the four hundred taels of silver, Boss Liu handed over the title deed and the list of hired servants, the two sides handed over the settlement, he shouted, and several family members went out with two or three cages.

"Slaves and maids knock to see Master Qin!" The men, women, and young servants in the house all come to see the new master, and at this time, the sale is not broken, and the house is often bought, and the servants of the maids in it are also turned around, of course, if the new master is not happy, let them go at any time.

Qin Lin sat on the Taishi chair, crossed Erlang's legs, looked through the roster very stylishly, and finally waved his hand generously: "It's better to use you if you hire someone again, rest assured, Master Ben will not treat you badly, everyone's monthly money is the same, but if anyone makes a mistake, then they will be punished as they should be!" ”

The servants immediately agreed loudly, and then Qin Lin waved his hand again, and then they dispersed.

Look at his little look! Bai Shuanghua pursed his lips, only to feel that Qin Lin was sitting on the Taishi chair, holding the roster, just like a local old man in Shanxi, or the most stingy and mean.

Why don't you wear a melon skin hat?

At this moment, someone outside the courtyard called for the door, Qin Lin made a look, Lu Fatzi ran to the front to open the door, and after a while, this guy came back upside down, and the smile on the fat face was not obscene, it was very obscene.

"Brother Qin, you, you better go and see for yourself," Lu Fatzi winked at Qin Lin.

Just look at it, what else can be weird? Qin Lin was the leader, and everyone walked into the courtyard together, and they were all stunned.

Behind the wall of the two small sedan chairs, eight sedan chair drivers stood solemnly, and everyone recognized that they were actually the Jinyi official school under Gui Youhua, the general banner of Jinyi Wei, why did they suddenly change their careers to become sedan chair drivers, and who was this carrying?

"Gui Zongqi heard that Chief Qin came from afar, and there was no family to accompany him, and he was afraid that the chief would be lonely at night, so he specially sent two girls to warm up the banquet with the chief," the Jinyi official school headed by him said, and each of them lifted the sedan curtain.

Two sedan chairs, each out of a dressed young woman, charming face, slender waist full of a hand, embroidered shoes wrapped in three inches of golden lotus, a few steps to walk graceful like a weak willow to support the wind, although not a natural posture, but very able to arouse the appetite of men.

This is the girl from Datong Mansion in Shanxi, who is famous for her three-inch golden lotus, the two women lightly opened their lips and said a blessing to Qin Lin Yingying, and in an instant, they were charming: "Fang Fang, Cai Ping, meet Master Qin, and hope that Lord Qin will have mercy." ”

One of the lieutenant brothers swallowed hard.

"Qin, Lin!" Bai Shuanghua grinded his teeth hatefully, and said in his heart that Qin Lin dared to take the two girls down, and the sect leader would ...... In the end, she didn't figure it out herself.

"Oh, two of you, please get up, please get up!" Qin Lin smiled evilly with a confused face, and his eyes were almost glued to Fang and Cai Ping.

"Ahem," Bai Shuanghua coughed twice to remind him, rather dissatisfied.

Qin Lin came to his senses, and told these Jinyi guards in Puzhou with a smile, saying that please worship the general flag of Gui on my behalf and thank him for his thoughtfulness.

As soon as these people left, the face of the sect leader's sister collapsed, and she sneered: "Qin Lin, which girl is sleeping tonight?" ”

Cai Ping and Fang are not fuel-efficient lamps, as women, they are more sensitive in some aspects, they were born in the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, so they paid more attention to certain details, plus the sect leader washed his face and makeup just now, and they immediately recognized it as a woman dressed as a man.

"Yo, what do you call this sister, it's too disrespectful to call her by her name, right?" The response of the needle hidden in the fangmian.

Cai Ping also covered her mouth and chuckled: "We are new to here, how dare we compete with my sister?" Tonight, of course, my sister is serving the master. ”

Dele, this is good-looking, the Demon Sect Leader has come to serve Chief Qin, can he afford it?

Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali almost laughed, and several people held back their strength, shrugging their shoulders.

Qin Linxin said I want her to sleep, but the consequences are too serious, the Demon Sect can be punished up and down, and our Chief Qin can't stand it......

Bai Shuanghua's face was already red, and she was recognized by the two girls as Qin Lin's concubine, and this face could be thrown to her grandmother's house!

Qin Lin straightened his chest and waved his hand in a big way: "Nanfang, Cai Ping, this Shuangshuang sister is the first to get started before you, the first to start, in the future, you have to call her sister, well, you newcomers don't know my habits, let's let Shuangshuang sleep tonight!" ”

You! White Frost Hua's silver teeth were almost shattered, and he quietly waved his fist at Qin Lin.
