Yang Cong has always been relatively low-key, and basically has not put on any pomp and circumstance of the children of rich families, why does he want to show off his wealth as soon as he runs to the capital?

Could it be that he wanted to show off how rich his family was in front of Lu Song and his eldest brother Lu Bing?

Of course not, these days, there is nothing to show off when you have money, power is the most important thing, and it is basically meaningless to show off your wealth in front of Lu Song and Lu Bing.

Actually, he didn't want to show off his wealth, but he didn't want to have problems this time, this time it was related to his marriage with Lu Linger, and there was absolutely no room for failure.

His purpose of showing off his wealth is very simple, that is, he wants to attract a local snake like Zhang Ping to come to him and ask him if he wants to do it.

He believes that there is such a land snake in Jinling, the southern capital, and there must be one in the capital.

In these years, snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths, and the people at the bottom are money for a lifetime, because they can live a good life in their minds if they have money, so everyone is thinking about making money, how could they miss such a good opportunity to make money.

Sure enough, early the next morning, before Lu Song and his wife, Nie Bao and Mu Konghui could send someone to reply to him, a person claiming to be a servant of the Ministry of Rites came to the door.

The effect of showing off his wealth is really good, when he was in Jinling, Zhang Ping came to the door after many days, and he showed off his wealth, and people came to the door the next day.

The so-called mastery, this time Yang Cong didn't have so many scruples as he had at the beginning, he didn't want to think about it, and directly ordered the guards to invite people in.

Soon, a shrewd old man walked in quickly, and said with a smile: "The villain Li Twelve has seen Master Yang. ”

In recent years, ordinary people generally call people the lord, but it is the first time that Yang Cong has heard someone call himself so.

This guy looks much better than Zhang Ping, but this name is really a bit too earthy.

But Yang Cong didn't think it was so strange, because this kind of name was too common in the Ming Dynasty.

For example, Zhu Yuanzhang's original name was Zhu Chongba, which roughly means Zhu Baba, his father's name is Zhu Siwu, and his grandfather's name is Zhu Chuyi, all with numbers.

This way of naming is popular among the people in these years, as for the reason, it is probably because the leaders in the countryside are for convenience, because the numbers are easy to write and remember, if the people below ask them to name, it is estimated that they will take the number to number.

However, ordinary people will change this old-fashioned name after they have a little identity and status, Zhang Ping may have been called Zhang Sansan or Zhang Eryi or something before, this Li Twelve is good, and he is too lazy to change his name.

Your guy is also a local snake in the capital, right, with this name, don't you feel that the price is dropped?

Yang Cong sneered in his heart, and then pretended to be curious: "Oh, what's the convenience?" “

Li Twelve said lightly: "That is, the conveniences in the examination room, such as entering the room to search or something, if the eldest lord can pay some money, the villain can let the eldest master pass the test easily." The eldest lord has participated in the township examination, and he should know that many things in the examination room are quite tormenting, as long as the eldest lord is willing to spend money, the villain guarantees that the eldest master will not be tossed to death like the township examination. ”

Sure enough, he did this business, and this guy probably didn't know that his Jinling colleagues had already looked for him.

When Yang Cong heard this, he was slightly excited and said, "Oh, what are the specific conveniences, you can talk about it." ”

The reason why he asked this is mainly to confirm whether this guy's business is as comprehensive as Zhang Ping's, after all, there is no communication equipment these days, and it is difficult for ordinary people to move around, since Li Twelve doesn't even know his counterparts in Jinling, it is very likely that the convenient projects in the capital will be different from those in Jinling, so it is better to ask first.

When Li Twelve heard this, he hurriedly introduced: "For example, the food and drinking water in the examination room, if the eldest master is willing to spend money, the villain guarantees that the eldest master eats hot meals, and the water is enough, you can drink as much as you want, and you don't have to worry about the problem of going to the thatched house, no matter how many times you go to it, the examiner will not write you down." Also, the charcoal fire at night, as long as the old man is willing to spend money, the villain can let people look at you specifically, and will not let the charcoal fire extinguish, nor let the charcoal fire burn you. “

Is this guy's service project quite comprehensive, as for what smoked mosquitoes, it will try to be in March, the weather is very cold, naturally there are no mosquitoes, but when you sleep, you have to put a charcoal brazier under the wooden board "bed" like a kang, otherwise, you have to freeze people to death.

Yang Cong pretended to be surprised and said: "Oh, I didn't expect Brother Li to be so capable, disrespectful, disrespectful, please sit, please sit." ”

Li Twelve was really a little flattered, his business was a little different from Zhang Ping's business, because this business was done with the big man, and the big man who was usually rushing to take the exam was not necessarily rich, but the shelves were very big, who would be so polite to him as a servant.

He was stunned for a moment, excused himself again, and saw that Yang Cong sincerely invited him to sit, so he sat down respectfully.

Yang Cong ordered someone to serve fragrant tea again, and then asked: "I don't know these conveniences, what is the price?" ”

Li Twelve hurriedly introduced: "Master, I won't tell you, if you want to do it, you have to open up a lot of joints, so the asking price is relatively high, a single one is twenty taels, if you want to do it all, the villain is cheaper than you, eighty taels." ”

fainted, twice as expensive as Jinling.

However, this is also understandable, after all, this is the capital, and the significance of the test is much more important than the township test, and the high price is also understandable, Yang Cong is not short of this money, he nodded directly and said: "Okay, the six of us, please take care of it when you will try, a total of four hundred and eighty pairs, is it to pay now or will you pay after trying?" ”

When Li Twelve heard this, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, he heard that this Yang Cong came over with a few people to fight in the south, and he was very generous, so he went to the roster of the next exam, and found that this Yang Cong really came to participate in the exam, so he came to the door to solicit business, but he didn't expect that this big man would be so generous, four hundred and eighty taels, how can he afford to lift people, this big man is simply too rich!

He was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly: "Since the lord is so refreshing, the villain is not hypocritical, in fact, the silver is the same as the first payment and the later payment, and the eldest lord can pay it as convenient as possible." ”

Yang Cong was not ambiguous, and directly ordered someone to take two hundred and forty taels and handed them to Li Siyi as a deposit, and when Li Siyi excitedly accepted the money, he asked again: "Brother Li, do you know that Lord Lu Songlu's family is waiting for the eldest lady, and someone in the capital has gone to mention marriage." ”

What he is most concerned about at this time is Lu Ling'er's affairs, and I don't know if anyone has asked the Lu family to propose marriage in the past two years, if there is, it will be troublesome.

Li Twelve was stunned again when he heard this, it turned out that this eldest man wanted to marry the eldest lady of the Lu family, no wonder he gave so many gifts.

He thought about it, and then said solemnly: "The villain has really heard of this, originally no one asked Lord Lu to propose marriage, but last year, the Xianning Marquis Mansion suddenly asked someone to go to the Lu Mansion to ask for marriage." “

Nima, there are really people who are looking for the Lu family to propose marriage, and they are also a marquis.

What the hell is this, Xianninghou?
