As soon as Ye Mingsheng said these words, a touch of emotion appeared in the eyes of Ye Tie, who was standing aside. He also stared at Liu Chunfu. He wanted to see what happened to this person and what he wanted for himself. go out··········
As for Ye Mingsheng asking Ye Tie to stay here, Liu Chunfu pondered for a moment, but didn't say anything. Instead, he took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Ye Mingsheng and whispered:
"I know that visiting unexpectedly would be abrupt. General Ye will definitely have some doubts about my identity and purpose of coming, but this letter should be able to clear up General Ye's confusion!"
Hearing what he said, Ye Mingsheng looked at the person up and down with slightly narrowed eyes, then took the letter from his hand, opened the envelope, and took out the letter paper. As soon as he read the beginning, Ye Mingsheng's expression suddenly changed. He became cautious and said calmly:
"Ye Tie! Close the door!"
When Ye Tie heard this, he immediately closed the door of the study, turning the study into a nearly airtight space, with only three people, Ye Tie, Liu Chunfu, and Ye Mingsheng inside.
Looking at Ye Tie's operation, the middle-aged fat man who called himself Liu Chunfu did not change his expression at all, and seemed to have guessed Ye Mingsheng's actions.
There was only one piece of paper, but Ye Mingsheng took half a cup of tea to look at before putting the paper down. Seeing this, Liu Chunfu took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Ye Mingsheng.
"This is a promotion gift specially prepared by my master for the general. I hope General Ye will accept it!"
After reading the letter, Ye Mingsheng was a little hesitant when he saw that the other party wanted to give him money, but he took the envelope and opened it directly...
Seeing Ye Mingsheng's actions, Liu Chunfu frowned slightly. In the Zhou etiquette, it was an impolite act to take apart things in front of the other party. Even so, Liu Chunfu didn't say anything. His expression quickly returned to normal.
After opening the envelope, Ye Mingsheng did not take out all the banknotes. He just took a look at the face value and then the thickness, put the envelope on the desk, and immediately fell into silence.
After a moment, Ye Mingsheng broke the silence and said in a deep voice without any emotion:
"Anything else?"
"My master wants to meet General Ye for dinner at Mingyan Tower in seven days. I wonder if General Ye is free?"
Liu Chunfu replied that he was a little surprised by Ye Mingsheng's calm reaction. In his opinion, a poor boy like Ye Mingsheng who came from a poor family should be very happy to get such a large sum of money... ·········
"good!"
After thinking for a moment, Ye Mingsheng closed his eyes and slowly said:
"Thank you, General Ye, for the compliment. I won't disturb that little man any more!" Liu Chunfu smiled slightly, did not stay in the courtyard for long, bowed to Ye Mingsheng again, and then left.
After Liu Chunfu left, Ye Mingsheng was like a statue, leaning on the Taishi chair motionless. Seeing this, Ye Tie, who was standing aside, hesitated and reminded: "Master, it's almost late... ··”
Ye Mingsheng, who had originally planned to go to Beiling Camp in the afternoon to go through the handover procedures, waved his hand and said, "I'm tired. The handover needs to be completed in one day. Let's do it tomorrow!"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's refusal, Ye Tie nodded. Knowing that Ye Mingsheng wanted to stay alone for a while, he didn't bother him much. He quietly retreated and closed the door of the study room, leaving Ye Mingsheng alone. Down a separate space.
Ye Mingsheng was the only one left in the room. He slowly opened his eyes, picked up the envelope containing the banknotes on the desk, and took out the banknotes one by one. There were ten banknotes in total, each with a denomination. It’s one hundred taels of silver, ten pieces totaling one thousand taels!
Seeing these banknotes, Ye Mingsheng had a complicated expression. He was happy to receive the money, but also confused and a little worried...
The letter was written to him by his "Master Shen", Shen Jianzhong, who is currently the fourth-level governor of the Liaoyang Supervisory Department. When he discovered this, coupled with Liu Chunfu's mysterious style, Ye Mingsheng thought that Liu Chunfu was Shen Jianzhong's. people.
This time I came here to explain some important things to Shen Jianzhong, so Ye Mingsheng asked Ye Tie to close the door to prevent the news from leaking.
But after reading the letter, Ye Mingsheng realized that he had thought wrong. Most of the letter Shen Jianzhong gave him was congratulating him on his transfer to the Zhenwu Army and his promotion from the fifth rank to General Huwei. At the end of the letter, Shen Jianzhong mentioned that he had a good relationship with the Dalongchang company...
After reading the letter, I was a little confused as to why Shen Jianzhong meant this. Just when he was about to test Liu Chunfu, Liu Chunfu gave the thousand taels of silver to himself. This time, he surprised Ye Mingsheng and also made Ye Mingsheng angry. Confused!
He didn't know what Shen Jianzhong and the Dalongchang company were doing!
The letter didn't say anything, but it was obvious that there was something going on with giving him so much money. This one thousand taels of silver was not a small amount. You must know that Ye Mingsheng, who is from the fifth rank, holds military power. The actual military attache's annual salary is only more than one hundred and fifty taels of silver.
Although Ye Mingsheng is short of money, he doesn't dare to ask for any silver. After all, some silver is very hot. You have a life to take the money, but you don't have a life to spend. Therefore, if you don't know clearly, what is the matter between Shen Jianzhong and Da Longchang? Under the circumstances, Ye Mingsheng originally wanted to refuse...
But just before refusing, Ye Mingsheng suddenly realized that although Shen Jianzhong's actions seemed very confusing, in fact, his purpose was very clear. He was testing himself!
Test whether you are the same person as him!
Although he didn't say what he wanted to do, it was obvious that the purpose of handing such a large sum of money to him was not small. And the reason why he didn't say anything in the letter was that the matter must be kept secret from himself. .
If you take over the money and are willing to follow him, then everything will be fine, hello to me, hello to everyone.
If he refuses, then Shen Jianzhong may have other thoughts...
Although he didn't know what Shen Jianzhong wanted to do, Ye Mingsheng could be sure of one thing. Based on his understanding of Shen Jianzhong, since he was testing himself with the help of the Dalongchang Company, it meant that Shen Jianzhong was interested in the Dalongchang Company. They are very trustworthy, so it is very likely that Dalongchang Company is an important participant in what Shen Jianzhong planned.
