Chapter three hundred and ninety-two see the money to do things
Li Wenlan was recovering from his injuries in the mansion and could not leave the house. Gu Liu followed the other scholars and rejoiced for a long time. He proudly took the money and invited everyone to have a good time. After walking a few steps out of Taixue, the servant hurried over.
There was an emergency in the house and he was asked to go back quickly. Gu Liu had no choice but to say goodbye to everyone. He said that all the money spent would be his and hurried away with the boy.
All the yamen were busy these days, so Su Ye naturally didn't have time to come out.
However, the presence of Gu Liusu Ye and others did not affect the high spirits of this group of scholars. They had just accomplished a major event, using their scholarly power to remove a huge moth from the empire.
In the devastation and busyness of the streets, the noisy and proud team of scholars is particularly eye-catching. The scholars are talking loudly about their discoveries, their revelations, and their impeachments in the eyes of all kinds of people...
…
The water has not completely receded, and wooden railings are still blocking both ends of the Longjin Bridge. The two sides of the Bianhe River are still temporarily cut off. The scholars walked along Zhuquemen Street and went straight to Yuxian Tower, which is the largest and best in Nancheng.
The only restaurant that could accommodate so many of them.
At the entrance of Yuxian Tower, the excited scholars were stopped by a group of young men greeting the door, "Masters, gentlemen, I'm really sorry, the little one will not accept outsiders today."
"Didn't I tell you the shopkeeper yesterday? Today we are going out to study with you at the Immortal Hall. What do you mean by not accepting foreigners now?" The scholar who walked in the front immediately darkened his face. Yesterday they
I sent someone over to make the reservation. Does it mean Huixianlou doesn’t want to do business?
"Masters, Masters of the People's Liberation Army!" The shopkeeper ran out of the house holding the front of his gown and bowed to the leader of the group of scholars blocking the door, "I'm really sorry. Someone came over yesterday and said,
I want to use our Immortal Building today, but I just said that I haven’t put down the order money. You gentlemen are all sensible people who have read books. Because there is no order money, I don’t know if you guys are coming.
Come on, later someone took cash money, not deposit money, and put down all the money in one go. The trumpet did not dare not accept it, gentlemen, gentlemen..."
The shopkeeper is extremely sharp-tongued, respectful and impeccable in his words.
A group of gentlemen, look at me and I look at you. The person who sent someone to book a house yesterday was the sixth young master of the Gu family...
"Are you dazzled by the money? Yesterday, the sixth young master of the Gu family sent someone to pass it on. Now, for people like you, Xianlou and the Gu family, you still have to ask for a deposit of money to be counted?"
A scholar who had lived in the capital for several years and had grown from a scholar to a helper, and who understood the world of the capital very well, answered the question politely.
"Sir, what you said... The boy yesterday didn't say that the Gu family wanted to use it. He just said that a few masters wanted to learn literature. They didn't leave their names. They were all well-read.
Poems and books, sensible people, like Xiao Xiao, open the door to do business without looking at the money. What else can you look at? Do you think so? When the door is opened for business, there is no reason to push out the money. That is not auspicious.
no."
The shopkeeper of Huixianlou had already scanned this group of people, and he was sure that there was no one of importance. His attitude was respectful, but his words were not polite at all.
"Everyone, please give way, just give me a little bit." The young men who greeted the door were scattered around with the sharpest eyes. Seeing several luxurious and dazzling cars approaching, they hurriedly passed through the crowd of scholars.
A wide thoroughfare was opened among the scholars.
Primrose was wearing a thin cloak with an apricot yellow background and fully embroidered with gold thread, and her hair was covered with pearls. She was holding a woman's hand as she got out of the car to pay the money. Facing the gazes of the scholars, she slightly raised her chin with a bright smile.
If provoked, they would stare back one by one, straighten their skirts, and pull up their cloaks. Watching the ladies from the cars behind them all get out of the car, and among the young men who came to greet the door, they stood proudly in the angry eyes of all the scholars.
Pass through and enter Huixian Tower.
"You gave up the place we reserved to these lowly bitches?" A scholar closest to the shopkeeper grabbed the shopkeeper's lapel and scolded him angrily.
"When the shopkeeper opens the door to do business, he only needs money. If he doesn't have the money, he just pretends to be the uncle's. That's really despicable." Yingcao turned back sharply, sarcastically, and spat at the man who was grabbing the shopkeeper.
, "Poor Ding!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's not easy to open a small company and do business. I'm a sensible man who has read a book. I don't have any money. The hundred or ten people in the small company and even their whole family have to drink from the northwest wind. Why don't you invite me?"
Please forgive me."
The shopkeeper explained with a smile, freed himself from the scholar's hand, straightened his clothes, and bowed to everyone: "It is really a last resort. There are hundreds of people in the small cell, with hundreds of mouths waiting to eat. Sirs,
The Qingfeng Restaurant next to it said that it has been cleared out. You all know that there are many dishes, but the small one cannot compare to Qingfeng Restaurant. The back lake of Qingfeng Restaurant...I am afraid that it has not been cleared out yet, so I will ask you to bring it to me.
Let’s have a meeting at Qingfeng Tower. What do you guys think? The trumpet is willing to give you ten taels of silver to give you more pen and ink..."
There were already three or three idlers around to watch. The scholars were in a dilemma, angry and embarrassed, and it was hard to say which one was more important.
"Let's go to Qingfeng Tower." Someone suggested in a low voice. Otherwise, what can we do? We can't rush in and fight with a group of female actors. Wouldn't it be polite and polite?
"This is not a matter of whether to go to Qingfeng Tower or not, this is..." The person next to him was full of resentment. This is a matter of decency and propriety.
"Everyone!" Two or three young men dressed as scholars rushed up to everyone from the direction of Taixue, "I have found you. It's terrible. Something big has happened!"
"What's the big deal?" All the scholars hurriedly gathered around. Something big happened now, and it happened at the right time.
"Isn't the water in Dongshui Gate too small? Four boats sank in Dongshui Gate first. Do you know this?" The few soldiers who came to report the news were sweating and looked extremely excited.
A few of the people nodded, but most of them looked blank.
"As soon as the water receded, the boat came out. It can't be said that the boat came out. Originally, the outside was also exposed, but the ship's planks came out. The yamen asked people to get on the boat to see if anyone was there. Who knows, when that person got on the boat, he actually
I bent down and picked up a piece of raw silver cake!"
When the people surrounded by the scholars mentioned the raw silver cakes, their eyes shone.
"I heard that those four boats belong to the whole family?" someone among the scholars cried out.
"It's the family's boat. I heard Mr. Su told the Sixth Young Master that the night before yesterday, when Huang Fuyin came to see us, he also said that four of the family's boats were stranded in the East Water Gate." Immediately there were people.
Be sure and give evidence.
"No wonder it ran aground! It turns out that this boat is full of silver cakes! Four boats!" someone exclaimed.
"Let's go and have a look! That Primrose just now, the one on top is the next in charge of the whole family! They have stolen all the money, let's go and have a look!"
Chapter completed!
