Chapter 52: Virtue

Shopkeeper Tong took a step forward and looked at the white jade scholar in front of him who was carrying burlap and sewing patches and bags, with dignified eyebrows and handsome appearance, but he looked polite and honest. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Are you alright?"

The scholar shook his head, "It's okay! "I want to stuff the book into his bag.

Shopkeeper Tong stretched out his hand to him.

The scholar looked at the shopkeeper Tong blankly, bowed slightly, and shouted respectfully to him, "Old man! Then he turned and left.

The shopkeeper Tong shouted, "Young man, be kind." ”

The scholar turned to look at the shopkeeper Tong and pointed to himself, "The old gentleman shouted me." ”

"Or else!"

"Sir, did the junior do something that made you feel unkind? Forgive the younger generation for being stupid, Mr. Wang's bluntness! I am a scholar, I have studied hard for ten years, and I know that honesty is the fundamental ....... of doing things."

Seeing that the scholar was gushing, the shopkeeper Tong had no tendency to stop at all, and was busy interjecting, "Young man, what you just put into your bag is the account book of the pawnshop, can you return it to its original owner!" ”

When the scholar heard this, he looked at the shopkeeper Tong in a daze, quickly took out the book that he had just put into the bag into his bag, flipped through the account book, it was indeed not his book, smiled wryly, touched his head embarrassedly, held the book in both hands, moved forward slightly, and handed it to the shopkeeper Tong respectfully, "Old gentleman, forgive the younger generation for being clumsy, I didn't see it clearly and thought it was my own book, the younger generation apologized to you, and I hope that Mr. will not be surprised!" Oh, don't be surprised! ”

Shopkeeper Tong glanced at him and took the account book, really verbose! Turn away.

The scholar touched his head awkwardly, turned to leave, and just stepped out of the door, he suddenly turned to look at the shopkeeper Tong, "Old gentleman, forgive the juniors for being nosy, just now the juniors looked through the account books and found a few very trivial mistakes, and the juniors are willing to point them out." ”

When the shopkeeper Tong heard this, he turned to look at the man, his eyes were a little surprised, just at a glance, he found the error in the account book?

"A trivial mistake?"

"Yes! On the third page of the account book, the expenditure of ancient paintings on that day was two hundred silver taels, the total amount of clothing was two taels of silver, the gold and silver jewelry was two taels of silver, and the total expenditure was two taels of silver. The total amount of pawns sold on the day was two taels of silver, that is, the net profit of the pawnshop that day was one hundred and two taels of silver. The scholar put one hand behind his back and said with his head held high.

The shopkeeper Tong faced the account book and quickly fiddled with the abacus, and the final calculation result was really as he said.

After seeing the incredible expression of the shopkeeper Tong, the scholar smiled confidently on the corner of his lips and continued, "On the twelfth page of the account book, not only is there a writing error, but the calculation result is also wrong. ”

The shopkeeper Tong was busy turning to the twelve pages, calculating on the abacus, and finally it was really as the man said...... The appreciative eyes fell on him nakedly, and the speed of this mental arithmetic was fast and accurate, and he was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground.

Standing at the staircase, Innis smiled and walked up to the scholar.

The scholar bowed his head lightly to Yueshi and said to the shopkeeper Tong, "Old man, there are still ....... in the account books."

Innis was busy blocking, "This son's mental arithmetic speed really impresses Innis. ”

The scholar touched his head and said a little embarrassed, "The girl has won the award." ”

"Childe's unforgettable skills also make me admire!" Innis was polite, but she was guessing how to let him stay in the pawnshop to settle accounts! The reason why he shows up at the pawnshop is either to pawn the goods or to do an interview.

"Where, where! There are still a few errors in the account books! After speaking, the scholar turned and left.

Yueshi looked at his departing back, waited for a while, the scholar patted his head, as if remembering something, looked at Yueshi and asked, "This girl, when will the afternoon interview start?" ”

innis smiled, the merry peach blossom eyes with a thick smile, really amused by the white jade scholar in front of him! However, it is really surprising that it can be hired as a pawnshop without a word.

"Childe is not from the capital?"

"I come from the treasure of the world, outstanding people, known as the "opening of things" of the feng shui treasure Huaiyang! ”

"Childe wants to find a job!"

The scholar smiled embarrassedly and lowered his head shyly, "I have bad luck, I studied hard for ten years, and I went to Beijing to take the exam, but I was so sick that I delayed my entry...... I have no shame to think that I have high hopes for my fellow villagers, and I will retake the exam next time, and now I dare not return to my hometown, and the entanglement on my body has been exhausted......"

Speaking of this, the scholar sighed helplessly, don't say it, it's also a bitter history!

Innis felt a little sorry for this, ten years of hard work, once the title of the gold list, this is a way for poor scholars to change their fate and raise their eyebrows.

"Working at Ruibao can provide you with accommodation and food! Would you like to start working today? ”

When the scholar heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Yes!" Absolutely! Innis Girl is really kind to you! Thank you, innis......"

Seeing this, everyone outside the door shook their heads helplessly and walked away disappointed.

After handing him over to the shopkeeper, Innis turned back to his room.

The scholar said to Yueshi's back, "It's called Houde!" Taken from Houde Zaiwu! ”

Innis bowed her head slightly, "Good name!" "I hope that his nature will be as beautiful as his name, virtuous and elegant.

At your gambling house.

"Big or small, bet fast, bet fast! Bet on it! A shrewd dealer shouted at the people gathered around the table with a Gu loaded with dice.

Mo Yu listened carefully to the sound of the dice colliding inside the Gu and looked at the silver two on his body.

The dealer said, "Young Master Chen, it's just that you don't have a bet, don't grind and chirp like a girl." ”

Mo Yu glanced at Luo Ying next to him, gritting his nails with his teeth, his heart was horizontal, and he pressed all the silver on his body to the big one.

The people on the side gave a thumbs up to Mo Yu's boldness, "Young Master Chen is bold!" ”

Seeing this, Luo Sakura patted Moyu on the shoulder, "You're crazy!" ”

Mo Yu patted Sakura on the shoulder and looked at the Gu in the dealer's hand, "Don't worry, believe me." ”

Luo Ying held her breath and watched the dealer open the Gu little by little.

The two factions of people on the table shouted in unison,

"Big Big ......"

"Tiny ......"

Mo Yu silently shouted in his heart, "Big big big ......."

With the moment the dealer opened the Gu, the dealer shouted, "Big! Young Master Chen won this game! ”

When Mo Yu heard this, she was overjoyed, and raised her eyebrows proudly at Luo Ying.

Luo Ying looked at the table full of silver taels that belonged to them, smiled, the nervous mood just now had long disappeared, and patted Moyu roughly, "Moyu, it's really yours!" ”

The loser scoffed and encouraged, "Young Master Chen, it's good luck to win three games in a row!" One more bet! ”

Luo Ying's eyes gestured to Moyu.

Mo Yu smiled and nodded, and generously threw the winning silver taels into the air, "Young Master Ben rewarded you." Then he walked out of the casino with a heavy silver pair in his arms.
