However, he did not expect that this young man, whom he had just met for the first time, had a pair of wise eyes that were filled with admiration and pity for him. It was enough to have a confidant in one's life, what more could one ask for to have someone like Ye Tian?
Zhang Liao laughed, revealing his neat white teeth."I'm just a boorish person and don't understand what you mean. As for grievances, I'm incompetent. Personally, I will let you go, but for the public, please accept the inspection.”
With that, he reached out and a soldier brought out a piece of paper. Ye Tian turned his head to look at it, stunned. There was only an outline of the person on the paper, so what could he see?
Zhang Liao frowned as he looked at the portrait of the wanted criminal, examining Ye Tian, analyzing the similarity between the two.
Ye Tian was rarely stared at like this, especially by a man. She felt a little awkward, so she smiled and continued to strike up a conversation."Commandant Zhang, what crime did this person commit to warrant such a strict investigation?”
"This person killed the Third Young Master of the Dong Residence not long ago. Grand Preceptor Dong was furious and sent out thousands of soldiers to search for him, but he was nowhere to be found. The city had been searched three times, but there was nothing.”
After a pause, he said," We suspect that it wants to leave the city, so we set up a checkpoint to check it. Please forgive us."”
The fatty was dead?
Hearing this news, Ye Tian was delighted and secretly cheered for the killer. It seemed that someone was even braver than him, killing as he pleased. He was truly a role model. If there was a chance, he must get to know him.
Ye Tian chuckled." I'm sorry, I'm sorry. If there's nothing else, just go ahead and look. If it's not enough, I'll just go home with you. We can sit together, eat, make up, talk about life, talk about dreams." I'll show you as much as you want."
Thinking of this, Zhang Liao closed the poster and smiled."I'm really sorry to disturb you. You and your wife can leave now, but please be careful. The murderer has not been caught, so try not to go out at night.”
Cai Yong was already waiting at the Cai Residence when Ye Tian and Ye Tian arrived.
"Father, your daughter is back!" Seeing his father, Cai Yan immediately flew into Cai Yong's arms like a swallow returning to its nest.
"Father-in-law, this son-in-law has come to the capital this time and will be bothering you for a period of time.”Ye Tian cupped his hands and smiled.
"We're a family. It's good that you're back. You can stay as long as you want. The two of you came back so late. I was so anxious. Quick, quick, let's talk inside. Auntie Zhang, bring the food up.”
The dishes and wine were served, the aroma wafting into Ye Tian's lungs. Ye Tian's appetite was immediately aroused, and without a word, he began to eat. Cai Yan still had no appetite, and after eating a small bowl of rice, she propped her chin up and quietly watched her husband eat.
After a sumptuous meal and a cup of tea, Cai Yong led Ye Tian into the study and began to discuss business.
"Xiaoyao, you've brought so many things to the capital this time. You're quite bold. Aren't you afraid that those dukes will rob you halfway?”Mi Zhu had transported hundreds of carts of goods into the courtyard. Cai Yong had thought that it was really a betrothal gift from his son-in-law, but when he opened it, he almost fainted from shock. Most of the goods were Xuzhou specialties-raw silk, porcelain, tea leaves, and even gold, silver, jewelry, and jewelry. They were simply priceless. If they were robbed, it would be strange if Xuzhou would not suffer a great loss!
"Haha, father-in-law, don't you know my personality? " How can I make a lot of money without taking risks? Xuzhou has a weak foundation. If I want to be superior to others, I have to fight with my life. Chang 'an City has gathered countless dignitaries and dignitaries. These luxury goods can only be sold here. What I need now is silver. With silver, I can recruit soldiers and forge weapons and armor. If this business is successful, the strength of Xuzhou will increase by at least two levels. I will earn at least double the profit of these hundreds of thousands of taels of goods. It will be enough to consume 50,000 troops for a year."”Ye Tian sipped his tea and continued,""As for the risks, there are definitely some. However, with the banner of my Xu Prefecture's 100,000 troops, I'm afraid that not many people will dare to make a move. Even if the goods are really stolen, who can resist the 100,000 troops of Xu Prefecture?”
"Oh you, I really don't know what to say about you. Sigh, fortunately, everything went smoothly. Otherwise, we would have to waste money and manpower again.”Cai Yan smiled and sighed. This son-in-law was really not a person who made people worry.
"Father-in-law, the sales of this batch of goods should be okay, right?”Ye Tian asked with a smile.
Cai Yong nodded." There are many wealthy people in Chang 'an. Your things will naturally be sold. I have secretly sent people to discuss with the major shops in Chang' an. Now that the world is in chaos and there is a shortage of goods, they are very happy. I think these things can be sold at a good price.”
"Yes." Ye Tian nodded and continued," Father-in-law, the price doesn't matter. The key is to sell it as soon as possible. We don't have much time, and I'm afraid that a long delay will lead to more problems. In addition, I came to Chang 'an this time to take you to Xu Prefecture to settle down. Chang' an is not a place to stay for long, and I'm afraid it won't be long before the situation changes.”
Back then, Grand Preceptor Dong had invited him to the capital because of his reputation. How could he let Cai Yan come and go as he pleased?
"Father-in-law, you don't have to worry. I'll take care of Grand Preceptor Dong. He'll let you go. You can stay at home and prepare to go to Xuzhou to enjoy your life.”
The news of Carefree Scholar's arrival in Chang 'an spread like wildfire, and everyone in Chang' an sent Ye Tian invitations to meet him.
The forces of Xu Prefecture were now in a frenzy, and the limelight was flourishing. Those high-ranking officials and nobles naturally fawned over them. After all, no one could guarantee that they would not have a place to seek help from Xu Prefecture in the future. It was better to have more friends than more enemies.
The next morning, Senior Grand Tutor Dong sent an invitation to invite all the officials to a banquet to welcome Carefree Recluse.
Glancing at the invitation card in his hand, Ye Tian chuckled: ""The drunkard's intention is not the wine. This trip is a little like a banquet at a trap.”
