Not long after, the hot stir-fried vegetables were quickly served on the table. Li Tian took the chopsticks on the table and started eating.
After three meals, Li Tian wiped his mouth, reached into his pocket and took out a gold coin given by the college and handed it to the proprietress at the side.
The gold coin soon turned into scattered silver coins. Li Tian took it and put it in his pocket.
I have to say that the academy is quite generous, giving so much for just one trip. It's a pity that Ergou didn't come, otherwise it would have been two gold coins, that is, two thousand mission points. Thinking of this, he hated Ergou even more.
After waving goodbye to the landlady, he set off for the Hou Mansion.
I heard from the landlady that the Hou Mansion is located in the center of the town. He got off the bus at the last stop, and the distance was still a bit far.
Therefore, he chose a rickshaw to go there. If anyone in a town had the best information, it would be the people at the bottom of society.
He was riding a rickshaw along the bumpy road, and from time to time he would ask questions about the Hou Mansion, but this time he was a little disappointed. What the rickshaw driver said was not much different from what the hotel proprietress said.
The confidentiality work was done very well, and no news was leaked, Li Tian thought.
"If you want to talk about any strange things that have happened in our town recently, last night's blood moon was the strangest. I heard from a fortune teller this morning that it was a bad omen that would only appear after many people died. The last time it happened, it was
Twenty years ago." The rickshaw driver answered Li Tian's question while running.
Li Tian frowned. For some reason, the scene he saw last night always appeared in his mind, the blood moon, the crimson rain of flowers, the beating fruits, and the Hou Mansion. Is there any connection between all these?
If you want to get this answer, you can only go to the Hou Mansion first and then talk about it.
The coachman traveled very quickly and reached his destination in only half an hour.
A huge mansion came into view immediately, "Houfu", two big characters were embedded on a gold-inlaid plaque.
At this time, the door of the mansion was open, and there were many people coming in and out, carrying something unknown.
"How much?" Li Tian stepped out of the car and then walked into the shade on the side.
The driver wiped the sweat from his head and said with a silly smile, "Brother, give me thirty." Thirty means thirty copper coins.
When Li Tian heard this, he immediately touched his pocket and took out the more than fifty copper coins he had just eaten.
"Take it all." Li Tian generously handed all the money to the driver.
It's not that he's being generous, it's not his own money anyway, and he might have to take back the extra money after the mission is over, so it's better to spend it all in these two days.
The driver took the money and quickly praised Li Tian for his generosity, and his smile became even brighter.
After Li Tian waved goodbye to the coachman, he began to look at the prince's mansion carefully.
It was obvious that although this house was large, it was definitely not the one he saw last night.
If the houses were in the same place, then the consequences of everything would be obvious. But now if they are not, then we have to start the investigation from scratch.
Li Tian had a headache. After all, it was his first time doing something like this. He had no experience at all and didn't know where to start.
He was sitting in the diagonal corner of the Hou's Mansion. From this direction, he could see clearly what was going on in the Hou's Mansion. Those people coming in and out seemed to be pulling some goods, moving boxes after boxes of things out, and then moving them to the carriage.
Transport away.
For a long time, Li Tian didn't see any familiar figure appear.
"These melons haven't arrived yet? They couldn't have escaped, right..." He had doubts in his heart. According to time, he should be the last one to arrive.
"No matter what, just act on your own and sneak in first." Li Tian thought this way.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
He finished the last bite of the popsicle in his hand and then threw the stick to the side of the road.
There happened to be a doorman sweeping the floor at the door, so he walked straight up.
"Brother, I want to ask if you still have people here? I can do anything and just want to make a living." Li Tian asked with a smile, trying to make himself look honest and honest.
The doorman looked confused and said, "What kind of day is it today? There are so many people looking for jobs."
Now Li Tian was confused, who else besides him?
"I'm sorry, eight people came before you just now, and the house has hired them. We probably don't want anyone now. You can go and look elsewhere." After the doorman who swept the floor said that, he stopped caring about Li Tian.
, minding his own business, he swept the floor again.
Numb, he started so quickly! It’s not that the people like Qing didn’t come, but they had already sneaked in without waiting for labor! Li Tiantian felt like scolding her.
No, you still have to find a way to sneak in. Otherwise, the college will treat him as if he failed to complete the task by himself. Where can he reason with him?
"Well, brother? Let me discuss something with you?" Li Tian had a plan in mind and chatted with him again with a smile.
The doorman stopped what he was doing again, raised his head and looked at him and said, "What's the matter? Tell me."
"I want to ask how much money you make for a day's work?" Li Tian rubbed his hands.
"Well, it's close to two silver coins. We pay monthly, fifty-five silver coins a month. What's wrong?"
Li Tianqian laughed and took out the fifty silver coin bill from his pocket, "Brother, do you think this is okay? I'll give you fifty silver coins, and then I'll work for you for a week. Then you can come back and continue.
How about it? Of course, the salary is still yours, I won’t take any penny."
"What?" The doorman looked confused, thinking he heard wrongly.
"What are you doing?" he continued to ask, obviously not believing that such a good thing could happen.
"Hahaha, to tell you the truth, I am actually sick. I feel uncomfortable if I don't work. I am not short of money, and I just like to find something to do. As long as you agree, these fifty silver coins are now
Just take it away, and you can just lie down at home for the next week, how about it?" Li Tian said seductively, money can make a fool of himself, but he didn't believe that this doorman wouldn't obey!
Sure enough, the doorman hesitated and looked at the big banknote in Li Tian's hand, feeling very excited.
However, he still did not agree immediately and asked, "You don't want to replace me with this, do you?"
When Li Tian heard this, he immediately became unhappy and continued, "Look what you are saying. Before you leave, go and tell your supervisor that you have something to do at home and ask your cousin to help you for a week.
Come back in a week and continue working, what's wrong with that!" As he said that, he forced the big banknotes in his hand into the doorman's hands.
The doorman looked at the heavy banknotes in his hand, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "Okay, you wait here, I'll go talk to you now."
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Li Tian also laughed happily, nodded to the doorman, then took the broom in his hand and said to him, "Go, go, I'll wait for you."
He just stood at the door and waited patiently. Soon, the doorman came to Li Tian's side again. He couldn't hide the joy in his heart, but he still said to Li Tian, "I've already said hello."
, I’ll leave it to you for the next week, and you must not cause any trouble for me.”
Li Tian nodded, "Don't worry, what trouble can I bring to you? Just go home and rest in peace. By the way, take off your clothes for me and we can change into another one." As he said that, he took off his green gown.
Passed it to the doorman.
The doorman took the gown and rubbed it gently in his hands. His eyes suddenly lit up, "This is the best fabric you have. It's better than what you sell at home. Isn't that right?"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Is it cheap?”
For a moment, he even forgot to take off his clothes to Li Tian.
Seeing that he looked like he had never seen the world, Li Tian said, "If you like it, I'll give it to you. Stop fucking and give me your clothes."
"Oh." The doorman quickly took off his rough coat and handed it to Li Tian.
"You are such a good person." The doorman said gratefully. In his eyes, someone who gave you both money and clothes was not a good person.
I'm not a good person, I'm here to ransack the house...
"Why are you being polite to me? I have to thank you for giving me a life-saving treatment." Li Tian smiled and slapped the doorman on the shoulder, almost knocking him to the ground.
"Your illness is really strange... Then I'm leaving." The doorman rubbed his shoulders in pain, but didn't say anything, waved goodbye to Li Tian and left.
Seeing the doorman running away, Li Tian took a broom and started sweeping the floor.
He was sweeping the carriage near the door. At this time, he also saw what everyone was moving. It turned out to be cloth. The Qinghou Mansion was in the cloth business. No wonder the doorman who was sweeping the floor just mentioned it.
The fabric thing.
Then he casually looked inside, and soon saw those familiar figures, Zhao Yinyun, Zheng Qian, they were all inside, queuing up as if they were having a meeting.
It must be because they have just entered the mansion and are explaining what they should do.
Soon, the meeting ended. The two girls in the team took two kettles from nowhere and began to water the green plants in the courtyard. On the other hand, Zhao Yinyun and the others followed the moving team.
Moved things.
Upon seeing this, the supervisor waved his sleeves and was about to leave, but in a blink of an eye he saw Li Tian sweeping the floor at the door, and walked straight out the door.
When Li Tian saw this, he immediately lowered his head and continued to sweep the dust on the ground.
"Are you Wang Sanshi's distant cousin?" the supervisor walked up to Li Tian and asked arrogantly.
When Li Tian heard this, he stopped what he was doing, quickly raised his head, and said with a flattering smile, "Yes, yes, you are his supervisor, I heard my brother told me, and it is just like what he said, he is wise and powerful.
Extraordinary magnanimity!”
The supervisor was obviously stunned when he heard this. Is this Wang Sanshi's cousin a sycophant?
"Uh... okay, I'm just here to explain. Although you are here to help, you must do all the work you should do. If you don't understand anything, you can come to me at any time. My surname is Jia."
Manager Jia said slowly, following Li Tian's praise, he also slightly put away his arrogance.
"I understand, I understand, Director Jia, my name is Li Tian. You can call me Xiao Li or Xiao Tian, whichever you like." Li Tian's eyes almost burst into tears with laughter. He can be as mean as he wants.
cheap.
Seeing that he was so sensible, Manager Jia nodded happily, "Yes, you are better at doing things than your brother. Work hard. If you do well, I can let you two work together when your brother comes back. This is all in one sentence." It's something." After saying that, he raised his hand and patted Li Tian's shoulder gently.
When Li Tian heard this, he pretended to be overjoyed, "Really? Come on, I will polish this place today and make sure not a trace of dust is left!"
"Hahahaha." Manager Jia laughed. Unexpectedly, Li Tian was quite humorous. "Then you keep doing it, I have something to deal with."
When Li Tian heard this, he immediately ran to him and pretended to sweep the ground twice. Then he nodded and bowed, "Go slowly~" He stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Manager Jia laughed again, swung his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the mansion swaggeringly.
At this time, Zhao Yinyu and Zheng Qian, who were passing by while carrying things, were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground. What is Mr. Li doing? Did he even give up his moral integrity in order to sneak into the Hou Mansion?
