Yizhou.

Zi Yan looked into Silver Eyes, thinking in her heart.

"Most of the accounting clerks of several major grain merchants in Yizhou City are hidden guards. There are also hidden guards at the yamen, so their subordinates can know. But there is no substantial evidence at this time, just their oral accounts."

Silver Eyes said.

Zi Yan couldn't help but glance at Yin Yan.

This guy is really a talent, he was able to develop Hidden Guard to such places.

"Without evidence, we can't figure it out, but we can collect evidence from this aspect..."

“How is the current operating status of the industry?”

Zi Yan asked.

Yinwei is not idle in the local area, but runs a huge industry.

These industries were initially purchased by Yinwei and belonged to the imperial court, but subsequent operations relied on local people in charge.

Generally speaking, the allocations received by local hidden guards from above are not enough to cover the expenses of local hidden guards. Especially for those latent hidden guards, if there is not enough money to support them, the possibility of their betrayal is also extremely high.

It is impossible to let the horse run and not give the horse grass to eat.

It is inappropriate to rely solely on emotions and the court's laws to control the hidden guards.

Most people who join the Hidden Guard want to get promoted and make a fortune.

This cannot be done relying on funding from the imperial court; it still needs to be managed by the local guards themselves.

"No, we haven't done well enough in this area of ​​business."

Silver Eyes sighed.

In this aspect, he admitted that it was not his strong point. Although he was the shopkeeper and had several shops under his name, these shops only had some meager profits. It was no problem to make a living, but it was more difficult to reward the hidden guards.

Big.

"Which company is the best at doing business in Yizhou City?"

Zi Yan asked.

"That must be Yang's Trading Company. Since they came to Yizhou, they have opened a grocery store and it has become the largest store in Yizhou. They own most of the street there..."

Silver Eyes said this with envy in his tone.

But there is no way, there are specialties in the art industry, and if he can't do it well, he just can't do it well. This is not something that can be achieved by relying on hard work, because his talent is not in this area at all.

"Why don't you go to them to discuss cooperation?"

Zi Yan said doubtfully.

"We have found one. The person in charge of Yang's Trading Company in Yizhou is named Yang Weiqing. He is unwilling to cooperate with us."

Silver Eyes shook his head.

"Have you revealed your identity?"

Zi Yan asked.

"No, that's impossible to reveal."

Silver Eyes shook his head. He felt a little baffled, but he instinctively became vigilant.

Doesn't this gentleman suspect that he revealed the secret of the hidden guard?

If this is the case, it's no joke.

There is a law enforcement department within the Hidden Guard, and they will regularly review and clean up internal bugs. If anyone does something illegal and is caught by them, the consequences will be disastrous, and they will not be merciful.

Could it be that this gentleman is from the Hidden Guard Law Enforcement Department?

"Take me to their base and make an appointment with Yang Weiqing."

Zi Yan suddenly said.

"Meet Yang Weiqing?"

Silver Eyes said a little stunned.

He didn't expect things to develop like this.

Why did you meet with Yang Weiqing? Does this gentleman have the confidence to convince Yang Weiqing?

"Yes, I know you can do it."

Zi Yan said slowly.

Yinyan has placed so many hidden guards, and Yang's Trading Company will definitely not miss them.

It may be difficult for others to make an appointment with Yang Weiqing, but Silver Eyes will definitely be able to do it.

"I can only let someone tell me whether Yang Weiqing will see him or not is not something I can control."

Silver Eyes took a breath and said.

"Let's just say we meet old friends."

"Okay, my subordinates will make arrangements now."

Yinyan waited a little longer until Zi Yan said this. He had no choice but to get up and leave in a hurry.

Zi Yan opened the window, picked up the tea cup, and took a sip.

Sitting at the table in front of the window, you can just see the stage and hear the local opera troupe performing.

The opera here in Yizhou is very different from that in Sixiangcheng.

Cheng Jinhua from Sixiang City performs all Beijing operas, which are basically in the same vein as the operas in Beijing.

But here in Yizhou, the singing style and form of opera are unique.

It is very different from Beijing opera.

Zi Yan squinted her eyes and enjoyed the opera for a while. After about half an hour, Silver Eyes hurried over from outside.

"Have you already sent a message?"

Zi Yan asked.

"It's been passed, sir. It's said over there that Yang Weiqing is here and has not left."

Silver Eyes said.

"Then let's go now," Zi Yan said.

…

Half an hour later, Zi Yan arrived at the door of a manor.

She got off the carriage and walked towards the door.

Fortunately, the door here is not the kind that looks down on people, but welcomes Zi Yan in with a warm salute.

After all, we are from Yang's Trading Company, so the rules are naturally different from those elsewhere.

The rules of Yang's Trading Company do not allow you to look down on others. Those who do business should welcome guests from all directions with a smile.

Facing the butler who was welcoming guests inside, Zi Yan took out a purple bag.

"Take this bag to your shopkeeper and ask him to come here to see me."

Zi Yan said that and sat down on the chair.

This is the living room, the decoration is relatively low-key and simple, but low-key does not mean cheap...

On the contrary, the value of this living room, whether it is the furnishings or the paintings on the walls, is extremely high.

If the parlor is too cheap, it will make Yang's business look cheap, and if the parlor is too luxurious, it will look like Yang's business has no restraint. Therefore, decoration is also a very high level of knowledge.

Zi Yan sat here calmly, not worried about anything.

Silver Eyes was a little uneasy...

What if the items in the purple bag don't work and Yang Weiqing doesn't want to come over to meet him? If this gentleman loses face, will he vent his anger on him?

This is a bad thing. Once it happens, it will definitely be an unforeseen disaster for him.

Fortunately, his worries disappeared soon.

Because Yang Weiqing really pushed the door in from the outside.

After seeing Zi Yan, Yang Weiqing saluted directly and said, "I have met Mr. Zi."

"sit down."

Zi Yan raised her hand and said.

She disguised herself as a young master, and even the silver eye couldn't tell her identity, and Yang Weiqing certainly couldn't tell either.

However, the purple bag she took out contained her identification card. After Yang Weiqing got it, he checked that the sign was authentic, so he did not dare to neglect and rushed over as quickly as possible.

"this?"

After Yang Weiqing sat down, he cast a distrustful look at Silver Eyes nearby.

"It's okay, this is one of our own, there is no need to avoid him."

Zi Yan waved her hands.
