Qin Ban

In the spring, the ice and snow disappear, and the severe cold is swept away.

The snow in the south of the Yangtze River melts quickly, and gradually, the cold left over from winter is also gone with the withering of the plum blossoms.It has been a while since Qin Ban came to Xiushui. Although he had discussed with Liu An before to let those merchants hang out, he still wanted to meet up.But no matter what, there is no reason for him, a majestic magistrate, to hand over the post. It seems that the merchants also think so.

"Master, why don't we take more people there?"

Rather than showing off, Qin Ban is also the son of a wealthy family in the capital.Usually in the capital, others flatter him a lot, isn't it because he is more patient than anyone else?After all, he is also the magistrate appointed by the court. Although the current merchants in Xiushui are the biggest, there is really something wrong. Those merchants put their own interests first. In other words, the majesty of the government is still there, even if the purpose of the two is the same, but what the government says can convince the people more.From this point of view, it shouldn't be him if he really wants to be anxious.Just yesterday, the post from the chamber of commerce was finally delivered to the mansion.

Qin Cai packed and arranged things for Qin Ban from left to right.The merchants are so cunning, no matter how they meet for the first time, they will be shocked by their momentum.Otherwise, they would think that their young master, like those Zhizhou prefects, is a soft persimmon for them to handle.

"Are you afraid that they will fight me if they disagree?" The jade in his hand hit Qin Cai's forehead.Yes, meeting for the first time is very important, so he didn't stop Qin Cai and Chunqiu from helping him choose clothes and accessories.But what does it mean to bring more people there?Could it be that they were going to fight?

Qin Cai was not discouraged after being knocked on the forehead. He thought about it too. There are not many people, but the most expensive.Instead of bringing seventeen or eight people to make up the number, it is better to accompany the young master with Chunqiu and others, otherwise those merchants who are really dandies think that it is good to just give some benefits.

"I'll go too." Liu An stood in front of the gate, looked at Qin Ban who was about to be helped into the car by Qin Cai, and said in that calm voice.

Qin Ban glanced at him and said, "I didn't bring the guards, what if you don't go, what if there is a real fight?" According to the relationship during this period, Qin Ban can also see that Liu An is very capable, and he is clearly in the He is very sharp when he thinks of ideas, but why is he so honest when he is in normal times, he whips and moves, but as long as you leave things in his hands, his degree of completion is astonishingly high.

"Oh, this is the prefect of Qin, right? It really is a young and promising talent." A group of people who looked rich and oily saw Qin Ban pushing the door behind Xiaoer and immediately served that special kind of food. With a warm smile, one of them, who seemed to be the most prestigious person in the group, stood up and respectfully guided Qin Ban to the main seat: "Prefect Qin, you sit here, you sit here."

Qin Ban walked to that seat without hesitation, sat down, and then saw Chunqiu and his wife set aside the bowls and chopsticks one by one, and washed them with warm water soup.During this period, Qin Ban didn't say a word.

The person who led Qin Ban to the seat looked at Qin Ban in this state, picked up the teapot again, poured tea for Qin Ban, and then said: "It seems that the prefect of Qin is not very happy, it's us Is the chosen place not in line with the prefect Qin's wishes?"

"That's not true." Qin Ban picked up the teacup, took a sip, then raised his eyebrows and said, "The best Yuqian Longjing? Heh, it's a big deal."

"The magistrate looks like someone who understands tea." The man's plump face gradually piled up with a smile. Seeing Qin Ban enjoying the tea, he felt that he had touched Qin Ban's temper. : "I am a member of the former Zhizhou Chen Guan's family, named Chen Qian. Before going to Beijing, Mr. Chen told me that Mr. Qin still has a good thing."

"Yahao?" Heh, why didn't he know?

I saw Chen Qian clapped his left and right hands, and there was an old duck-like man with bonuses all over his face, followed by a group of beauties.What surprised Qin Ban even more was that among this group of beauties, there was actually a man.That's where it gets interesting.

Seeing Qin Ban turn his gaze to him, Chen Qian's narrow eyes couldn't even see: "Master Chen said that Lord Qin loves beauty, but he is in a hurry to go to Beijing, and he hasn't come yet to take Master Qin to experience Xiushui. My beauty, specifically asked me to take good care of Mrs. Qin." In fact, what Chen Guan said before he left was that the news from Beijing was that Qin Ban loves men, which is why there is a little green among the thousands of flowers.

Seeing these people who came, one by one sat on the left and right of the people present, only Qin Ban's side was empty, but it didn't take long before seeing the only man walking towards Qin Ban.With a small oval face, brows like water, and weak walking, if it weren't for the prominent throat protrusion, no one would really know that this is a man.Before Qin Ban could react to this person, Liu An, who was originally standing behind him, stepped forward and stopped him.

"This……"

"Liu An, it's okay." Although Qin Ban didn't like this type of person, and he wouldn't compare him to those who hugged a beautiful woman and had no manners just because of such a little color, he didn't want to turn his face so directly.So after calling Liu An, he squeezed his fingers, glanced at the person whose face was redder than the girl next to him because of his sideways gaze, and said, "Oh, as expected of Xiushui, this person You are really handsome, and the boys are not worse than the girls. What's your name?"

"Hahahahahaha, Mr. Qin has a good look. This is the person who came out of the largest Huayue venue in Xiushui. He, I paid a lot of money to hire him, and he is still a newcomer."

"My lord, my name is Qianqiu." The man's big, watery eyes were glued to Qin Ban's body.He is indeed a newcomer like Chen Qianlai. When his mother came to his room today and asked him to serve Lord Zhizhou, his mind was full of the face of Lord Chen Guanchen that he often saw in the Xiangqin House. , I felt chills in my heart, but I didn't expect that the person sitting in the main seat I saw in the room was a person who was many times more handsome than him.No, to be precise, he is ashamed to be compared with this person. Just sitting there, this person has an indescribable feeling. .The same good-looking person, he can only be a plaything, but this person can be offered as the master by these people who he would not dare to provoke on weekdays.

"Qianqiu?" With a smile on the corner of Qin Ban's mouth, he gave a piece of high-quality jasper hanging on his body to the blushing man, tapped his fingers on the table a few times: "Qianqiu has no perfect beauty, a good-looking person is a beauty. It’s a beautiful country and a beautiful city, and it’s amazing to the people of the world. It’s a good name.” Looking at Chen Qian with a bit of joy, he said: “I never thought that Xiushui, who is the place of fireworks, can come up with such a good name with artistic conception.”

The old crow who had been standing by the side smiled like a spring flower when he heard this, and couldn't help squeezing the handkerchief in her hand: "Where are you, sir, aren't you joking? We vulgar people can only get up a little bit at most." The names of flowers and grasses, like this kind of names, are all made by us after we saw that they could make a role, and then invited scholars to come up with them."

Whose scholar is this kind of leisure, who has nothing to do to help people in this kind of place name them?If it was changed to the capital, it would be laughed out of hand if it spread.Even someone as unreliable as Cao Qi would not do such a thing.

Qin Ban was only focused on talking and laughing with the people on this side, and didn't notice the area behind him that was less than an arm's length away. Liu An looked at his face, frowning with a pensive expression.

"Brother, I'm a new maid. I want you to call Brother Liu An, can you help me? I made some food and I want to give it to Brother Liu." Liu An didn't have a chance to meet her when he went to the main courtyard. At first, Cui Qiao thought that the girl's family should be reserved, but it's been almost a week since I saw her, and she felt a little anxious.So when the guard was not paying attention, she secretly went to the kitchen to make some pastries, thinking of finding an excuse to meet Liu An.

Cui Qiaochang is pleasing in itself, and the person he is looking for is the celebrity around the master recently. If he helps to inform him, it can be regarded as showing his face. Besides, it is not a big deal, it is probably someone he knows well. Sociable and emotional.I agree.Cui Qiao's eyebrows and eyes are curved. Although she was a servant in the Qin Mansion during this time, the cost of food and clothing is much better than before, and she looks more and more beautiful after raising her.This smile made the guard a little dizzy.Joyfully, he explained to his companion and ran to report.

She looked expectantly at the direction where the guard left, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart that Brother Liu would be happy to get the pastry she gave her, or regret that he didn't take the initiative to find her?Even if it's just knowing that I care about him, it's good.It's just that after waiting for a short time, the guard ran back again and said, "Liu An went out with the master in the morning."

"Ah, like this, that's too unfortunate. Then, elder brother, do you know when the master and the others will come back?" Cui Qiao looked at the ground with some disappointment, but soon raised her head and asked the guard again.

The guard said a little embarrassedly: "We are only in charge of looking at the yard, I'm afraid we don't know." After Qin Ban moved in, he kept a lot of people who could be used.After adjustment and reassignment by Lin De and Hao Qing, they stood at their posts again.Like confidantes, of course they are the people they bring. The previous people used it, but generally it was only on some peripheral things.So things like the master's whereabouts are completely out of their control, even if he wants to tell, he really doesn't know.

"Ah, that's fine, then I'll come back next time." Cui Qiao was disappointed, but at any rate, she knew beforehand that if Liu An came to work with the master, it would be difficult to see him: "Ah, brother, what about this pastry?" You can keep it, thank you." Without giving anyone a chance to refuse, she stuffed the basket into the guard's arms, and then left.
