Because of Liu Gongzi's words, Wu Gongzi fell into distress, if his family really didn't take the money, then the advantage he got by chance this time would not be restored, and he had already expected how the surnamed Liu would mock him.

"Wu Gongzi, this calligraphy, you let people take it home, with it, I believe in your family, and they will also believe what you say." At this time, Chen Yi slowly stepped forward and handed the box containing calligraphy in his hand to Wu Gongzi.

Seeing Chen Yi's movements, Wu Gongzi was shocked and a little incredulous, and the other people next to him were also a little dumbfounded, they didn't expect Chen Yi to take the initiative to hand over the calligraphy to Wu Gongzi and let people take it back.

"Chen, Brother Chen, are you so relieved to let me bring the calligraphy back?" Wu Gongzi said with a shocked face, he had also thought about discussing with Chen Yi before and bringing the calligraphy back first.

It's just that he feels a little difficult to do, after all, the money hasn't arrived yet, and it will make people very uneasy to bring the calligraphy back first, but he didn't expect that Chen Yi took the initiative to take out the calligraphy himself.

"Wu Gongzi, I dare to hand over the calligraphy to you, I am not afraid of any mistakes, not to mention, aren't you still here now, and you still have an IOU in hand."

Chen Yi smiled and pointed to the IOU in his hand, with his current ability, in this Ming Dynasty, he is really not afraid of anyone, not to mention the aristocratic family, even the palace, he has the confidence to break through.

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Xu smiled, he also said this sentence when Chen Yi put calligraphy there before, from now on, Chen Yi is full of mystery. No one knew about this young man. What else will be able to.

"Brother Chen. Thank you, thank you. Wu Gongzi bowed his hand at this time and thanked Chen Yi.

Chen Yi waved his hand, "No need to thank you, I just want to get the money in my hands quickly, go and let someone inform me." ”

Wu Gongzi nodded hurriedly, took the box in Chen Yi's hand, and called a subordinate to hold the calligraphy. Hurry home on horseback.

After seeing his subordinates ride away on a fast horse, Wu Gongzi turned around and expressed his gratitude to Chen Yi again.

Liu Gongzi looked at this scene, the gloomy color on his face became more intense, he didn't expect Chen Yi to do this, Chen Yi's calligraphy is only for money, but now that the money has not arrived, he handed over the calligraphy, which is really unreasonable.

He felt now that he really couldn't see through this Chen Yi. This guy's way of doing things, and ability. It's all weird and mysterious.

After thanking Chen Yi again, looking at the people standing next to him, Wu Gongzi waved his hand, "Everyone, it's noon now, let's go to a nearby restaurant for lunch, waiting for my family to send the money, and then we will go to Baoyuan Hall with Liu Gongzi and ask Master Li to identify antiques. ”

Zhang Gongzi clapped his hands first, "Okay, I agree with Wu Gongzi's words, someone has a dinner party, and if you don't go, you won't go in vain." "He's waiting to finish identifying Liu Gongzi's chicken bowl cup, and then return to second place.

At this time, Wei Gongzi also nodded and agreed, now that Zhang Gongzi and Wu Gongzi were standing together, he had to make a choice.

Seeing that Zhang Gongzi and the others agreed, Wu Gongzi looked at Liu Gongzi with a smile, "Liu Gongzi, what do you think?" ”

"Since Wu Gongzi has been treated, then I naturally want to go, but I remind Wu Gongzi, you haven't really won yet, don't rejoice."

Liu Gongzi chuckled and said, in terms of Chen Yi's calligraphy, as long as the people of the Wu family see it, five thousand taels of gold will definitely be taken out, and maybe Chen Yi will be invited to the mansion as a guest, but he can't lose to Wu Gongzi in terms of momentum.

"Haha, thank you Liu Gongzi for reminding us, let's walk." Wu Gongzi laughed, and then led everyone to a restaurant that looked good nearby.

In the restaurant, Wu Gongzi directly chartered two private rooms, asked for three tables of food, and let everyone in the pawnshop and their servants sit in it.

And the four of Wu Gongzi, as well as Chen Yi and Xu Shopkeeper, were alone in a private room, looking at the four children of the family who usually needed to be cautious and careful on the table, Xu Shopkeeper was full of emotion in his heart, the reason why he was able to sit at this table was because of Chen Yi.

Soon, a table full of delicacies was served, Wu Gongzi waved his hand, everyone picked up chopsticks, pushed cups and changed lamps, and began to eat and drink.

In the box next to him, there were bursts of laughter, but in the box where Chen Yi was, it was not particularly lively, each had their own thoughts, and only Chen Yi and Wu Gongzi said a few words from time to time.

About half an hour later, I heard a hurried shout from the door of the box, "Childe, childe, the housekeeper is here." ”

With the voice, a servant who was arranged by Wu Gongzi outside the restaurant and waited for his family hurriedly walked in and repeated the words just now to Wu Gongzi.

Wu Gongzi's face showed a touch of joy, the housekeeper is here, which means that the five thousand taels of gold he asked for are very likely to have arrived, "What about the housekeeper, call him up." ”

"Childe, the old slave is already here." At this moment, an old man in his sixties walked up slowly and said to Wu Gongzi with a smile.

"Uncle Shen, why are you here, can't you just let the family send someone at random?" Seeing this old man, Wu Gongzi hurriedly stepped forward and said, this old man is the old housekeeper of their family, and it can be said that he has come to their house since he was more than ten years old, until now.

Even his father has great respect for this old housekeeper, and he naturally can't avoid it.

"Haha, son, you sent a good treasure to the family, which shocked the old master, how could I not come." Steward Shen said with a hearty laugh.

"What, even my grandfather was shocked, Uncle Shen, is this true?" Hearing this, Wu Gongzi said with surprise on his face, his grandfather was in a high position, and he had always been moody, but he didn't expect to alarm his old man.

His father had five brothers, and he was the third, so his father was not very valued by his grandfather, and he was even more so, and it would be a great joy if he could change his grandfather's attitude towards him if he could use this calligraphy.

"Childe, of course it's true, otherwise what would the old slave do?" Steward Shen said with a smile on his face.

At this moment, hearing the conversation between Wu Gongzi and Steward Shen, the people in the other box also walked out, and they wanted to know whether the people from the Wu Mansion had brought the gold.

Listening to the conversation between the two, those pawnshop shopkeepers were also full of envy, jealousy and hatred, and even Wu Gongzi's grandfather was shocked, so the five thousand taels of gold were indispensable.

As for Zhang Gongzi and Wei Gongzi, there was envy and jealousy on their faces, and even a deep regret in their hearts, an old housekeeper from the house came in person, what it meant, it was very clear.

In their family, the old housekeeper can be said to represent the elders in their family, on behalf of their grandfather, it can be said that their status in the grandfather's mind is far inferior to the old housekeeper.

Now that the old housekeeper of the Wu Mansion has been sent over, this undoubtedly shows that Wu Gongzi's grandfather attaches great importance to this calligraphy, so his attitude towards Wu Gongzi will also change.

They now regret a little, why didn't they compete with Wu Gongzi to the end in the first place, maybe they can also get this opportunity to raise their eyebrows in the family.

And Liu Gongzi, when he heard Steward Shen's words, his face couldn't help but change, Wu Gongzi's grandfather, he knew, he was also very fond of calligraphy, and his appreciation ability was also extraordinary, he could be alarmed, and sent Steward Shen to come, for this calligraphy, I am afraid that he has reached a very favorite Cheng dù.

At this moment, his heart was suddenly full of regret, more regret than Zhang Gongzi and the others, his status in the family is not high or low, if he gets this calligraphy, with their family's respect for Wang Xizhi, he is very likely to be greatly valued for this.

However, it was too late to say anything now, not only did he not get this calligraphy, but he even offended Chen Yi.

He very much hoped that Chen Yi was the kind of person who was moved by money, so that in the future, he might still be able to get calligraphy, and if Chen Yi was a person who was based on his own preferences, then he would not be able to get any money he estimated to spend.

Because the news that Wu Gongzi got this calligraphy and alarmed his grandfather will quickly spread throughout the circle, and when the time comes, there will be countless people who want to find Chen Yi to buy calligraphy.

"Good, great, great, grandfather can like the best." After getting the confirmation of Steward Shen, Wu Gongzi muttered to himself with excitement on his face.

After that, he seemed to think of something, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Shen, did you bring the five thousand taels of gold?" ”

"Haha, Childe, of course I brought it, after the old master saw the calligraphy, he hurriedly ordered me to come, five thousand taels of gold, a lot of money, but Childe, can I meet the owner of this calligraphy." Steward Shen took out a stack of golden tickets from his arms, each of which looked like there were a thousand taels of gold.

Looking at the stack of golden tickets taken out by Steward Shen, the faces of the people next to him showed envy, this is a huge wealth, ordinary people get this wealth, and they can't enjoy it in their lives.

"Brother Chen, come, let me introduce you, this is the old housekeeper in my house, Uncle Shen." Wu Gongzi hurriedly pulled Chen Yi over, and then introduced Steward Shen to him, and then pointed at him and said, "Uncle Shen, this is the owner of that calligraphy, Chen Yi." ”

"Steward Shen, hello." Chen Yi smiled and said hello to the housekeeper. (To be continued......)
