When Liu Haojia was talking and his mouth was dry, the housekeeper came to inform him that the banquet had been delivered, and calculating the time, the stewards at all levels outside the city should be arriving soon.
Liu Haojia clapped his hands and said, "Okay, in that case, I will go to the front door of the mansion to greet them!"
The housekeeper was very surprised and said: "Second Young Master, is it a bit too flattering to welcome them in your capacity?"
Liu Haojia patted his head and felt that what the housekeeper said made sense. The identities of him and the manager are so different that if he were to greet them in person, he would probably scare these people to death! But how do you make yourself visible? How can Cui Junyong be paralyzed if there is no road?
At this moment, I heard Miss Zhang say: "Brother, can you send my little sister out? The female shopkeepers under my little sister just arranged to stay in my house."
Liu Haojia was overjoyed when he heard this and nodded in agreement! Although Miss Zhang came to Tianjin with Liu Hao's family and lived in his house, she had to buy another house as her own place to live. This way people won't spread gossip.
Liu Haojia then sent Miss Zhang and her servant out by car to the Zhang family house on the next street. Instead, he deliberately walked around in front of the door, kicked the hitching post, and then waddled back into the yard.
Soon after, the stewards arrived one after another. But among these people, Liu Haojia only knew one person! Fortunately, the butler knew everyone and introduced them to him one by one.
After listening to their brief reports, Liu Haojia encouraged each of them! Because he had communicated with Ms. Zhang in advance, he knew how to praise everyone and how much money to reward, and everything was done in a way that made these people smile!
After he finished speaking, the officer specially called arrived. The butler called everyone to start the banquet. So everyone gathered around Liu Haojia to take the first place, and officially started the celebration banquet!
Due to Liu Haojia's status, it was impossible for him to accompany these people until the end. So he said something nice at the beginning, encouraged everyone, toasted several rounds of wine, and then said he was too drunk and left! And his departure not only did not lower the atmosphere of the banquet, but instead made it even more lively!
Moreover, those officers and these stewards basically knew each other because of the handover of goods. Now that they no longer have immediate bosses, they will naturally have more fun! So a group of people were shouting and drinking very happily!
After Liu Haojia returned to the back house, his servants brought ordinary people's clothes over. He changed into clothes three times and put on a fake beard on his face. Then he mingled with the servants and slipped out of the main entrance with six servants.
Along the way, several people distanced themselves and looked after each other as they walked out of the city. Because it was close to the curfew time, the people who wanted to leave the city hurried out. A few of them blended in with the crowd and left the city easily. Then he rushed directly to the military camp.
Just as they were heading towards the military camp, a fair-skinned guy with sinister eyebrows quietly left the city to the sound of curfew drums. He quickly came to the nearest village and walked to the side door of a house with familiarity.
He knocked gently on the door, and the side door opened quickly. After the concierge confirmed that the visitor was a familiar person, he let him in and took him to the main hall.
This man was a little surprised when he saw the appearance in the main hall! Because at this time, all the furnishings that should be in the main hall were gone, only some bulky and difficult-to-move furniture was left in place. From time to time, servants would carry something through the main hall and send it to the back.
Just as he was looking around, one of the three people who was talking said: "White mouse, you got here quickly!"
The two people around him laughed immediately after hearing this, especially the strong man standing in the middle laughed happily!
He looked at the white mouse carefully and found that this man had a roe-headed head and rat-like eyes, and he really looked like a rat! But the white mouse's face is extremely white, and when combined together, it turns out to be a perfectly white mouse!
After seeing the white mouse, the man said to the speaker: "Hong Yi, is this the white mouse you are talking about?"
Hong Yi nodded and said, "Yes, Master! This guy is just a white mouse. There is no news in the city that he can't find out!"
Then he turned around and said to White Mouse: "White Mouse, this is Mr. Cui, the head of my family."
When the white mouse heard this, he hurried forward and kowtowed, and then Cui Junyong said: "Get up and speak! If you finish the task assigned by me, it will be more effective than if you kowtow ten thousand times!"
The white mouse stood up and nodded repeatedly and said, "That's the truth! But Mr. Cui, I have indeed found out what you want to know."
Cui Junyong turned back to the chair and sat down. Hong Yi stood beside him with another servant. Just listen to Cui Junyong say: "Tell me, what did you find out?"
The white mouse perked up after hearing this and said, "Sir, because Lord Hong asked the villain to keep an eye on Uncle Wu Ning, the villain went out in person and followed him with the most caring people!"
Then the white mouse told Liu Haojia's whereabouts in the past two days in detail. If Liu Haojia were here, he would be surprised to find that the white mouse not only told his movement trajectory clearly, but he could also guess almost everyone he met!
At the end, he said: "He hasn't left the house since the stewards entered the house. It seems that he should really entertain those stewards today. He will probably drink until midnight!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Cui Junyong eagerly, seemingly waiting to get the money. But Cui Junyong rubbed his chin and said, "How are you sure he will be in the house tonight? Don't tell me that he invited the manager to dinner! With his status, showing up at a banquet is considered a favor!"
The white mouse chuckled and said, "The villain thought so too! So the villain didn't follow him personally, but went to follow Miss Zhang!"
Hong Yi frowned and said, "White Mouse, I recommended you to the head of the family because I trusted you, but you turned out to be so unreliable! You actually stared at women!"
But Cui Junyong raised his hand to stop Hong Yi and said to the white mouse with great interest: "Keep talking!".
The white mouse chuckled, and first raised his hands to Hong Yi and said, "Master Hong, I can't compare to you when it comes to killing villains, but when it comes to gathering information and tracking, you are no match for the villain!"
Hong Yi also figured it out at this time and said directly: "Don't hold back, tell me quickly!"
The white mouse agreed and said, "The villain followed Miss Zhang to her own house. When they entered, they heard Miss Zhang's personal maid telling the concierge that the door should not be closed. They have to go back to Liu's house!"
