Six hundred and forty-seventh, Hanging Garden(1/2)

Yin Jiu was in a state of anxiety, and Xie Zhong had come to the office several times.

Who is Xie Zhong? He is the current prime minister’s aide.

You should know, which one of the "Book of Songs" often publishes articles in the tone of prime minister?

This person is either someone else, he is Xie Zhong.

Although ordinary people don’t know who Xie Zhong is, after reading Xie Zhong’s articles, the person who knows the inside story is the aide to Prime Minister Xie Fangshu.

Of course, Xie Zhong would not say it directly, but his meaning is very clear.

He used to be a case of the fall of the vassal states in the past, and talked about the dangers of military generals' rule.

The Song Dynasty finally overwhelmed the generals, and the tragedy of the former Tang Dynasty must not be repeated.

The representative of the Ewang Temple is a vulgar martial artist, and the generals and cavalry cannot be allowed to act as a powerful and prosperous minister.

Yin Jiu was irritated in his heart, why didn’t the court issue a notice to prohibit it, and why did he, the prefect, stop it?

However, if the general really acts as a civil servant, he, as the prefect, feels not feeling bad.

Thinking of this, he promised Xie Zhong and tried to stop the construction of the Ewang Temple.

After leaving the construction site, Mei Shou felt nothing.

He thought about it and returned to Lin'an Prefecture and reported to the prefect Yin Jiu.

"Main Lord, the construction of this Ewang Temple is in difficulty." He thought about it and did not dare to say enough.

Hearing this, Yin Jiu couldn't help but be overjoyed and finally heard a trace of good news.

He held back his excitement and pretended to be calm and picked up the teacup, showing that his expression was still calm.

Yin Jiu tried to ask in a calm tone: "Zibama, what's going on?"

Although he pretended to be calm, the hotness in his eyes and a trembling hand betrayed him.

"There is no real shopkeeper in the entire construction site of Ewang Temple. Currently, the shopkeeper is Mantianxing. Mantianxing is a young and indifferent scholar. What shopkeeper can he be?" Although Mei Shou felt funny when he saw Yin Jiu's expression and movements, he did not answer respectfully.

A rare smile appeared on Yin Jiu's face, but it disappeared soon.

He asked a little strangely: "This can only be said to be a shortage of shopkeepers for the time being, and you may be looking for shopkeepers immediately."

"I heard that he found someone named Cheng Siyuan to be the shopkeeper, but he was rejected." Mei Shou replied carefully.

Yin Jiu nodded, and the smile on his face became more and more prominent: "Mr. Cheng is famous outside Lin'an. Although he has retired, he is no longer in the officialdom, but he has a close relationship with many officials. If he refuses, it seems that Lin'an wants to build the Ewang Temple for a while."

"Prince, this Cheng Man Wai is not helping you in business. You think I don't know." Mei Shou opened his mouth and really wanted to say this.

But he immediately felt it was inappropriate and hurriedly used tea to cover it up.

Not only did he not dare to say this, he said with a smile: "Main Lord, this group of students with high expectations and low talents will inevitably end up being a mess."

"Thank you for your hard work, I'm treating you tonight, so I must come here." Yin Jiu couldn't help laughing and said with a smile.

Mei Shou actually didn't want to go there very much. He wanted to be a literati who was led by the little saint and Xie Fangshu.

However, if the Duke of the Mansion treats a guest, it will obviously not give Duke of the Duke of the Mansion, and he will definitely wear small shoes in the future.

Thinking of this, Mei Shou had no choice but to smile on his face: "The Lord of the Mansion treats him, and he is extremely honored."

Taixue University.

When Wen Tianxiang heard Man Tianxing’s words, Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu looked at each other, which made Man Tianxing feel a little strange.

The two of them seemed to know the expressions in their chests, and they seemed to be unexpected.

Lu Xiufu is eighteen years old this year, and Wen Tianxiang is only seventeen years old today, which is the prime of life.

Finally, Lu Xiufu spoke: "Zheng Yuanwai is a businessman, it is not surprising that he has such concerns."

"Manager Cheng obviously doesn't want to take this muddy water. He is not only a literati, but also knows all kinds of behaviors in the officialdom. Of course, this is not something our students can understand." Wen Tianxiang nodded and agreed with Lu Xiufu's speech.

Man Tianxing looked worried: "The project started, obviously it cannot be stopped. How should we continue now?"

"It's all because we are too anxious. I want to have a fait accompli. I didn't expect that no one would be willing to stand out now." Lu Xiufu smiled bitterly and regretted it.

Wen Tianxiang shook his head and regretted it a little: "Now is not the time to complain, so we must ask someone to continue our work."

"Lin'an people have given them a chance, but they don't cherish this opportunity that has passed through the ages." Lu Xiufu said in a little regretful tone.

Wen Tianxiang thought for a while and sighed: "The people of Lin'an are so smart and ruthless. After all, Lin'an is the capital. If you pull it, you can't blame them for this."

"Since the people of Lin'an are unwilling to take over, how about we find someone who is willing to take over?" After saying that, he looked at Man Tianxing and glanced at Wen Tianxiang, and said decisively: "How about the little saint?"

"It seems that only the little saint has the courage to take on this job." Wen Tianxiang nodded.

Speaking of this, the two bowed and said to Man Tianxing: "Please go to Changzhi (Man Tianxing) and ask the little saint to arrange a craftsman to take over."

The reason why the two dared to be the vice president of the maintenance meeting was that in addition to their own knowledge and courage, they also believed that the little saint would take action in the end.

Three days later, Lin'an Prefecture Bureau.

Mei Shou was called to the prefectural court by Yin Fu, aide to the prefectural court, and bowed his head and did not dare to face Yin Jiu's roar.

"Didn't you say that Ewang Temple has encountered difficulties? Why is it being built faster and faster now? I heard that the foundation has been fully built." Yin Jiu's saliva had already touched Mei Shou's face, but Mei Shou did not dare to wipe it with his sleeves at all.

Mei Shou thought about it, carefully, bowed and said, "Main Lord, the shopkeeper who came to build this time is from Zhaojiazhuang, and this shopkeeper is from the little saint. They have this courage."

Mei Shou said while secretly looking at Yin Jiu.

"Zifu, they are just under Lin'an's eyelids, how could there be no problem? Open your eyes wide and make a big deal if you find a problem. I'm going to care for it." Yin Jiu waved his sleeves and kicked the ball back.

Mei Shou couldn't help but smile bitterly: "If something happens, the Mansion Lord will take care of him. I'm afraid he can't dodge. Otherwise, why are you always subordinates? Why are you not the Mansion Lord?"

But I couldn't say this, so I had to agree.

Mei Shou thought about it. Now the Mansion Master has spoken, and he is in charge of something, but he turns his face and doesn’t matter what he does?

"Master, I want to ask for a handwritten order." Mei Shou bowed and asked respectfully.

Yin Jiu couldn't help but be shocked, a little angry and ashamed.

But this matter is difficult to deal with, so I have to comfort my subordinates.

To show his concern, he deliberately asked: "What handwriting?"

"My subordinates should set up inspection points on the sections of the road to the construction site, conduct inspections through tax collection, etc., and try to pluck the feathers until the other party can't stand it." Hearing the other party's agreement, Mei Shou beat the snake and followed the stick, deliberately digging a hole for Yin Jiu.

Yin Jiu thought about it and shook his head: "This is inappropriate. If you think about it again, are there any other ways?"

Yin Jiu had already planned that no matter what Mei Shou made, he would not agree.

When Mei Shou finally understood when he heard that Yin Jiu was so kind that he was not there.

Yin Jiu must have pushed himself out, and wanted to make things difficult for the students, but he didn't want to take responsibility.

There is no such good thing in the world. It is because you don’t want to take responsibility and have to do things under your own hands.

But he had to implement the words of the Mansion Master, so he had to lead the workshop and craftsmen to the construction site of Ewang Temple again.

Seeing Mei Shou bringing people from the workshop to the construction site for inspection, Gao Ming couldn't help but wrinkle.

This person's eyes were extremely vicious, and last time he saw that there was no shopkeeper on the entire construction site.

This time, I wonder what bad idea he came up with again, so Gao Ming looked at him with a pair of eyes alert.

Seeing Gao Ming's vigilant gaze, Mei Shou nodded calmly and asked, "Are the shopkeeper here?"

"What's the matter with the official looking for a villain?" At this time, a man in his thirties came out and bowed to Mei Shou, neither arrogant nor humble.

Mei Shou looked at the person's attitude and couldn't help but feel moved.

Although he is not the prefect of Lin'an, he is also a prosecutor, and his position is behind the prefect of the prefect.

What surprised him was that this person was not a literati, but obviously he was not afraid of him.

He couldn't help but look at the person carefully, with thick eyebrows and long eyes, a national face, although he was not tall and his body was extremely thick.

He couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a surname?"

"Fenggui, the villain's surname is Liu, his name is Mingquan, and his courtesy name is Mingquan. He is the shopkeeper of the construction site of Ewang Temple." Liu Mingquan bowed his hand and answered neither arrogant nor humble.

Mei Shou couldn't help but be suspicious of this person at the age of thirty.

You should know that this is a project that has been remembered forever, and it should be at least fifty-year-old craftsmen.

Mei Shou looked at him and asked in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper Liu, how many years have you been in this industry? What achievements have you achieved?"

If there is no performance, he will definitely use this as a reason to ask the other party to change the shopkeeper.

"The villain has been in this industry for fifteen years. Although his performance is not outstanding, he only built Jingyuan Restaurant and Zuichunfeng Teahouse." Liu Mingquan bowed and still had a calm attitude.

Zuichunfeng Teahouse and Jingyuan Restaurant are famous tall buildings in Lin'an, with five floors high, as famous as Bai'an Building.

Although both are from the fifth floor of the Alum Tower, its roof is completely different from the Alum Tower.

The roof of the Alum Tower is the top of the flying eaves, which is beautiful, but the highest place is only up to the fifth floor.

If you want to reach the roof, unless you have the ability to fly over the eaves and walk on the walls.

But Zuichunfeng Teahouse is different from Jingyuan Restaurant, and the roof can be even more accessible.

The key is that not only can you go up the roof, but there is another scenery on it.
