When the steward received this bet, he was also shocked, as much as a huge sum of eight thousand taels.

The group of fools of the West French Party have been studying all day long, and they have invested all their money in it, and there is a person named Sun Yuanhua who even sold all his ancestral property, where is there any spare money to bet.

The West French have long become synonymous with the loser, and they have also become a joke in the capital, and they are also called bullshit research for some kind of bullshit.

Can research be eaten?

With this money, it is better to go shopping in the Qinglou, cockfights and gnats, and it is also good to take the gambling house to gamble for money, and the drunken gold fan is the life of the bureaucrats and gentry.

I had to invest my money in some messy research, and I wasted everything, and I made my life miserable haha.

The steward also knew Sun Yuanhua, because he had been a small steward in his house for a few days before, and the Sun family was also a well-known wealthy family in the capital at that time.

There is a mansion in Sanjin, and there are more than 20 shops in the bustling chessboard street, which is really a good class.

Since the death of Sun Yuanhua's parents, this loser has been buying useless things all day long, such as sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal, saying that he wants to purify gunpowder.

Forget it about buying these, and buy some high-quality glass to hold these things, it's nothing, and the glass is worth it when you save it, the key is that the so-called research will explode.

The steward watched Sun Yuanhua blow up the ancestral property step by step, and finally had to move into the dilapidated slums.

The steward didn't believe that such a group of impoverished West French people could come up with so much money, so he cautiously inquired about it and knew where the eight thousand taels of silver came from.

The steward knew what the old man was thinking, and mocked: "Master, those West French people are really crazy about money, and they actually went to borrow a large amount of money. ”

"Seven borrowings and eight borrowings, and the only remaining ancestral property was mortgaged, and those West French people scraped together enough eight thousand taels of silver."

"Master, shall we take it? They bought a rifled gun and won, and if they did, they would be bankrupt in a few days. ”

Jin Shang, surnamed Huang, glared at the steward with disdain, obviously angered by the steward's words, and kicked him: "You donkey thing, have you been shopping around the Qinglou too much recently, and your brain has shot out." ”

"Someone sent us money, why don't you take it."

Jin Shang has already bought off the person who competed, and he had already said hello in advance, deliberately losing a game, resulting in two wins and one loss.

Because everyone buys three wins, only a few people buy two wins and one loss, which adds up to 1,000 taels of silver, and the odds are low, so it is good to be kind.

Of course, there is also a group of fools and losers, who actually bought 8,000 taels and lost 10 today.

Thinking of this, Jin Shang surnamed Huang was happy in his heart, and couldn't help shouting: "Madam, go and bring the bottle of good wine rewarded by Lord Belle, I want to drink two glasses today." ”

The Jin merchant surnamed Huang bought it was no one else, it was Kong Yougui, a squire who had an enmity with Zhu Shun, this person's character was not very good, and he was a good hand at fighting cocks and walking dogs, and he practiced good marksmanship.

The person selected by the Donglin Party at the beginning was not Kong Yougui, he was able to do such a good thing, and everything was thanks to his good brother Jin Zhijun.

With Jin Zhijun's recommendation, Kong Yougui played some unsavory tricks, won the first shooter in the capital, and was lucky to get this opportunity.

These two good brothers who are embarrassed are now enjoying the most face-saving moment of their lives.

Every year, the Donglin Party people will loot a large amount of people's fat and people's ointment, and if they have money, they will enjoy it, and often hold all kinds of poor and luxurious wine banquets.

Tomorrow will completely trample the West French party under their feet, and today of course I want to celebrate well, so I will wrap up Qinhuai Tower, one of the four major green buildings in the capital.

It cost as much as 10,000 taels of silver, and if the West French knew about it, they would definitely beat their chests in distress, which would be enough for them to study for a long time.

In the most extravagant courtyard of Qinhuai Building, there are only three tables, and only Lang Zhong, who is in charge of the first division, is qualified to sit here.

Kong Yougui is not only sitting here, but also sitting at the main table, although it is only the next head, but it is also a thing that many people dare not think about in their lives.

The six Shangshu and the left and right squires did not come, and they will not come, as long as they come, a crime of forming a party for personal gain will not be able to escape.

Although they did form a party, no one would be stupid to take the initiative to admit it, and they would not admit it even if they were killed.

They have been up and down for so many years, where would they leave such an obvious handle, Jinyiwei and Dongchang are not vegetarians.

If they didn't come, they didn't come, but they also sent a squire who was heavy enough to participate in this early celebration banquet in their place.

The squire sitting at the main table had nothing to do with the backbone of the Donglin Party behind him on the surface, and even had a deep hatred.

In fact, he was the number one lackey of those backbone of the Donglin Party, helping them deal with some shady things.

The representative of the Ministry of Shangshu took the initiative to toast Kong Yougui and Jin Zhijun, today the two of them are distinguished guests, and they have already explained that they must entertain these two great heroes well.

Kong Yougui and Jin Zhijun didn't expect that the representative of the Ministry of Officials would take the initiative to toast, which was equivalent to the Ministry of Officials and Shangshu honoring them, and they hurriedly picked up the celadon wine glass and killed it in one gulp.

The representative of the official department Shangshu played with the celadon wine glass, which was a good thing from the official kiln, and said with a smile: "Jin Langzhong has made the first contribution this time, and the above has already spoken. ”

"When this matter is over, I will take you to visit the party leader."

The Huanghuali chopsticks in Jin Zhijun's hand immediately fell to the ground, and he picked up the Huanghuali chopsticks tremblingly, unable to calm down his mood for a long time.

Jin Zhijun did not hesitate to carry the infamy of being poked in the back, and betrayed Xu Guangqi, who single-handedly promoted himself, just for this sentence.

As long as he can visit the leader of the Donglin Party, even if he officially enters the interior of the Donglin Party, with his scheming city, it is only a matter of time before he enters the core.

Once he enters the core of the Donglin Party, there is absolutely no problem with a squire of the third grade, and it is even possible to further become a Shangshu.

Without saying a word, Jin Zhijun replaced the celadon wine glass with a white porcelain wine bowl, dried three bowls in a row, and said from the bottom of his heart: "Thank you, master." ”

"Xu Guangqi, this group of poor ghosts, really thought that I would follow them, not to mention anything else, just take enjoyment, obviously be able to live a good life with wives and concubines."

"We have to do some useless research, because they have developed a lot of new firearms, and they have also improved the power of firearms."

"But what can I do like this, I can't make a penny of silver, not to mention, I lost a lot of money, the most ridiculous Sun Yuanhua, I just sold all my ancestral property if he had a good life."

"I, Jin Zhijun, am not a person who is greedy for power, but I just don't want to be affected by them."

"Isn't it just to have a good life, and we don't need to be good, just be able to eat a bite of meat every day."

After Jin Zhijun, who had superb acting skills, said this, tears instantly appeared in his eyes, but he didn't fall, and he looked pitiful that he had been greatly wronged: "I won't tell you, I haven't eaten meat for a month." ”

The Donglin Party members who were originally sitting here looked down on Jin Zhijun's two-faced character, and when they heard him say that he hadn't eaten meat for a month, they all showed sympathetic expressions.

The disdain for Jin Zhijun in my heart has also decreased a lot, and it has become a sigh of emotion.

Put yourself in your shoes, if you change to yourself, let alone not eating meat for a month, even if you don't eat meat for three days, you can't stand it.

At tonight's banquet, Jin Zhijun was officially recognized by the backbone of the Donglin Party with his superb acting skills.

The representative of the Ministry of Shangshu toasted him again, this time with a sincere toast: "Don't worry, Brother Xian, our good days are still ahead, and everyone will help you in the future." ”

With tears in his eyes, Jin Zhijun stood up, solemnly raised his head and drank a full bowl of wine, and when he sat down, he paid attention to the expressions of the important members of the Donglin Party present.

There is no disdain and disdain.

Jin Zhijun was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that this matter had come to pass, and he had really won the approval of the Donglin Party and completely integrated into them.
