Chapter Ninety-Five: One Thing to Say
Qin Chuan couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard Xie Bald's words, he had just received thirty taels of silver from the scholar, plus a jade pendant, and now he had to collect silver money after divination, it was expected that Qin Chuan wanted to earn a little more silver, and now he would be embarrassed if he asked for it again.
Hearing this, the scholars of Bailu Academy also said shyly: "The thirty taels of silver just now are my case silver in the past few months, but I saw that I liked the poems very much, so I bought them regardless of the lack of things in my stomach." If my family hadn't suffered this change ten years ago, I wouldn't have bargained. It's just that now the family is overstretched, and sending the three of them to the capital to catch the exam can be described as the strength of the family, just to gain a reputation. I don't have any other money in my body now. If you don't believe me, I will take off my clothes. ”
After the scholar finished speaking, he was really ready to take off the long shirt on his body, Qin Chuan saw that the clothes inside actually had a little pudding, it seemed that on the surface of such a beautiful scenery, it was also very difficult to live in secret.
"Forget it, forget it. It's just a fate. Qin Chuan looked at the scholar so embarrassed, and he couldn't bear to say, after all, he had already earned more than thirty taels of silver, as well as a jade pendant that didn't know the price.
Seeing that the scholars of Bailu Academy really had no money, Xie Bald no longer insisted, and let go sideways, signaling that Qin Chuan could throw copper coins. After all, Xie Bald also wanted to know what Qin Chuan's divination skills were.
took out six copper coins and threw them into the sky, Qin Chuan clasped his hands together, chanted words in his mouth, and pinched and changed the magic from time to time, and after a while, the six copper coins fell to the ground, showing different hexagrams, according to outsiders, Qin Chuan looked like a Taoist.
Picking up the copper coins and placing them on the wooden table one by one, Qin Chuan thought for a moment, and crossed his hands as if some kind of secret method was being carried out. At this moment, Lao Dao leaned next to Qin Chuan and whispered, Qin Chuan also nodded and said, "That's what I mean." ”
After finishing speaking, Qin Chuan picked up the pen and paper again, and wrote a heavy word, the pen was strong, and Zhang Jin was powerful. Besides.
There is no other word.
"Huh? The people on the outer street of the Baiyun Temple, facing the people who came to interpret the dream and ask for the hexagram, all said very clearly, why did this young man just want to send it away with a single stroke, could it be that one word can interpret the hexagram? But the scholar was at a loss, and did not know what was happening. On the side of Baiyunguan Street, Jia Yuan was also staring here, even if the red mud had brought a person who looked like a wealthy businessman, Jia Yuan ignored him.
When the scholars of Bailu Academy saw Qin Chuan writing a word, they also asked suspiciously: "Xiaoyou, don't play this dumb riddle with me." I told the hexagram from the future Baiyun Temple, but the elders of the family told me in my ears, saying that the ancestors had been enlightened in the Baiyun Temple, so they won fame in the capital, although I did not believe in ghosts and gods, but I had to come here to visit the Taoist Heavenly Monarch. ”
Qin Chuan pretended to be profound: "The so-called cause and effect are destined in everything. You go back and study hard and study your knowledge. This capital exam will definitely not disappoint you. It's just that you asked me before to go into the city to take the exam, but I have never seen the other two, so I counted a word, if not, you come to this stall to find me, and I will return the money to you. ”
When Xie Bald heard that if he was not accurate, he would return the money to the scholars of Bailu Academy, and he couldn't help but get anxious at this moment. It is not easy for the students of Bailu Academy to come to the outer streets of Baiyun Temple to divinate and fortune-telling, and seek fame, if they know that this Xie Bald Man is not accurate, it can be regarded as smashing his signboard. After all, the world is so big, who is not afraid of the pen of a reader?
It's just that the people who tell fortunes on the outer streets of Baiyun Temple don't dare to promise, if they can't be calculated, they can return the money, otherwise he is a god operator, comparable to the shocked ancestors, then it will not be the turn of other people to make a living here. It's just that since there is no such heavenly person, why does Qin Chuan dare to make such a promise?
Qin Chuan pulled Xie Bald to the side and explained in a low voice: "I said, uncle, why are you making such a fuss, if you can't return his money, otherwise how can this scholar of White Deer Academy be trusted?"
Xie Bald touched the few remaining hairs, and said with a little melancholy: "Hey, you don't know, if someone dares to make such a promise, then the outer streets of Baiyun Temple, aren't they all shocked people? Why do you have to do everything possible to find lobbyists to help, and suffer the white eyes of those people? If you agree to the students of Bailu Academy today, but then you feel that the calculation is not accurate, you are patting your ass and leaving, and when the time comes, he will bring the people of Bailu Academy to make trouble here, and I can't stay in the outer street of Baiyun Temple." I have to keep this business of eating, don't ruin my job. ”
Qin Chuan smiled and said with a natural expression: "Uncle Shi, don't be so impatient, since I dare to say this, I naturally have my reasons, otherwise how dare I make such a promise?"
Xie Bald shook his head, there were many fortune tellers on the outer street of this Baiyun Temple before, but later they were all because they said big things, and finally they were confronted by the original hexagram seekers, smashed their own signboards, and didn't know where they went. Although Xie Bald is also a wanderer, he is not the so-called shocking person. But he was careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and never promised anything to any pilgrim, but like a master in the world, he only said a little bit every time, and his reputation could not be revealed, so in the past few decades, no one has come to the door to make trouble.
Now although Qin Chuan is said to write well, Xie Bald is also very worried, after all, this stall has been run by himself for decades, and during this period, he has also experienced threats from other families, and even many people covet the location of the store and secretly do it, so Xie Bald is resistant, if it is ruined by Qin Chuan's casual words, it will be more than worth the loss. After all, compared with the stall, these thirty taels of silver are naturally more important for eating, not to mention that these thirty taels of silver have to be compared with Qin Chuan's thirty-seven points.
Seeing this, Qin Chuan explained in a low voice: "Uncle Shi, you listen to me slowly, the people who studied at Bailu Academy said that there were three people who went to the capital to take the exam, all of them were young talents in the family, if all three of them were in high school, then the one I wrote was for the same high school; ”
When Xie Bald heard Qin Chuan's explanation, he was very happy to take over and said: "If two people pass the exam and one of them fails, this one means that one person falls off the list; Therefore, no matter what happens to those three people, our stall will not lose its trust to others, so as to smash its own signboard. ”
Qin Chuan glanced at the scholar of Bailu Academy, and continued to say to Xie Bald: "Uncle Shi's understanding is good, he can understand what I mean, besides, I also let this scholar prepare for his life, thinking that the result of the capital examination will not be too bad, and when the time comes, he will definitely come to thank you in front of the shop, and you can collect a sum of money from him." ”
Hearing this, Xie Bald said in a loud voice to the scholars of Bailu Academy: "When my nephew speaks, it is just as I said. I thank Changyun for decades, and I definitely won't smash my own signboard. If my nephew is not accurate, I will return your money. ”
Yang Dazhi and the others stood beside him, thinking that Xie Bald had drunk fake wine, and he dared to make such a promise, and he couldn't see through Qin Chuan even more.
