Volume 2 Chapter 7 It is better to offend a gentleman than to provoke a villain

Yang Cong naturally didn't care about the fifty taels of silver, if it was really as Zhang Ping said, he couldn't solve the troubles of those trivial matters in the examination room, he didn't care about the one hundred taels of silver.

However, he didn't want to be the wrongdoer, so he gave away fifty taels of silver for nothing.

He doesn't know this Zhang Ping, in case someone is here to blackmail money, he stupidly gives people fifty taels, isn't it stupid than a pig.

Thinking of this, he said lightly: "I can give out this money, but there is one point, if I pay the money, you don't give it a little convenience, who should I go to?" ”

Zhang Ping seemed to be accustomed to this question, and he said unhurriedly: "Young Master Yang, I won't tell you, we have been doing this for decades, have you ever heard of a candidate who gave money and was not taken care of, and finally made a big noise?" ”

This Yang Cong really hadn't heard of it, but this didn't prove that what Zhang Ping said was true, he thought about it and simply said: "I really don't care about this money, but you have to prove to me that you can really make it convenient for me." ”

When Zhang Ping heard this, he smiled slightly: "Hehe, Yang Gongzi, I won't tell you, most of the officials of the yamen in Jinling City are recommended by villains, even if they are the examiners of the township examination, they have to give the villain a few thin noodles, otherwise, the villain will not be able to eat this bowl of rice." “

Hey, this cowhide is blowing as if he is the boss of the officials in Jinling City, is it possible?

There is still a possibility of this, but again, this kind of thing cannot be proved in a few words.

If this guy is really the boss of the officials in Jinling City, then even if he gives him fifty taels for nothing, because this kind of person is useful, maybe he will be able to use it at any time.

Thinking of this, Yang Cong said with interest: "Oh, there is such a thing, your ability seems to be not small, but these few words alone can't prove that you have this ability, right?" ”

Zhang Ping nodded, and then said: "Young Master Yang, let's tell you the truth, in this township examination, the 11,351 official documents have been checked, and the nobles and villains who may be able to afford the money have been carefully investigated, and they will not find you if they are not small." ”

So powerful, really fake?

Yang Cong couldn't help but be curious: "What have you found out about me?" ”

When Zhang Ping heard this, he secretly glanced at Yang Cong, and then said solemnly: "Since Yang Gongzi wants to know, the villain will tell you about it." You are a person from Hui'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture, your grandfather donated a Guanglu Temple Administration, this time your county test, government test, hospital test even three yuan, you are at the end of last month to Jinling City, and you came with you, a total of more than 20 people, of which five are candidates who have applied for this township examination, you have gone to Zou Shouyi Zou Mansion, Zhan Ruoshui Zhan Mansion, Zhang Bangqi Zhang Mansion and Wei Guogong Mansion have voted for the post, and the villain estimated, He Qian He Lord's son is looking for the Yang Cong is you. ”

Damn, it's so powerful!

When Yang Cong heard this, his eyes were about to pop out, this guy is so capable!

This kind of person must make good friends, he was stunned for a moment, then got up and arched his hand and said: "Brother Zhang is really a master, I am slack, please sit, please sit." ”

He is already polite, where do the officials in the general yamen have the qualifications to sit in front of the meritorious talents.

However, this one is not pretentious, he politely and politely sat on the guest seat on the left.

Yang Cong made people serve fragrant tea again, and then smiled and said: "Brother Zhang, you should also know that these fifty taels of silver are nothing to me, so let's do it, I'll give you three hundred taels, and you can take care of all six of us." ”

When Zhang Ping heard this, he couldn't help but say excitedly: "Okay, Yang Gongzi, you are really a refreshing person, the villain likes to deal with a refreshing person like you, so let's do it, originally this transaction was to pay half of the deposit, the villain will not accept the deposit this time, after the township test, you are satisfied and then give the money, what do you think?" ”

This guy, sure enough, the energy is not small, Yang Cong knows that if he doesn't pay afterwards, it is estimated that this township test will be over.

In these years, it is more difficult to let people pass the test, and it is not difficult to let people pass the test, as long as you wipe some saliva on the test paper and confuse the word, the test paper is basically wasted.

This guy probably has a way to infiltrate even the place where the paper is read, or he wouldn't dare to say that.

Such an awesome character, you can't miss it, you have to find a way to have a good relationship with people.

So, how do you have a good relationship with people?

This kind of person should care most about money, as long as he finds a way to make more money, this relationship will naturally be good.

Yang Cong thought about it, and suddenly remembered, this guy just seemed to say that the son of He Qian, the head of the Ministry of Rites, was looking for him, although He Qian didn't have much ability, but he had to guard against it, this township test, he couldn't have any mistakes.

It just so happens that if you give some money and let this Zhang Ping do you a favor, in this way, you can not only prevent He Qian from doing his own ghosts, but also have a good relationship with Zhang Ping, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, he said solemnly: "Brother Zhang, you said that Lord He Qianhe's son is looking for me?" ”

Zhang Ping also nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, this matter was originally not about the villain, but since Yang Gongzi has made such a big deal with the villain, the villain will say a lot of words, Yang Gongzi, you have to be careful, since the villain can find you, He Qian He will definitely be able to find you, this He Daren's temper is not very good, the villain estimates, he will take revenge on you nine times out of ten." ”

When Yang Cong heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhang, how do you think he will retaliate?" ”

Zhang Ping thought about it, and then analyzed: "If you want to retaliate against a person in this township test, there are no more than two ways, one is to make a fuss on the test paper and scrap the test paper; The second is to make a fuss about the examiner and ask the examiner to find an excuse to brush you down. ”

When Yang Cong heard this, he couldn't help frowning, if this guy really retaliated against himself, he might really be brushed down in this township test.

Fortunately, I met Zhang Ping, otherwise, I really didn't know how to die.

He thought about it for a while, and then said sincerely: "Brother Zhang, I want to ask you to settle this matter, how much money is needed, you just say." ”

Zhang Ping thought about it for a while, and then said seriously: "The first way is that the villain can help the son, it is not easy for him to scrap the test paper, because the candidate's name is confused when the test paper is handed in, and it is impossible for the general examiner to distinguish which test paper is who is when marking the paper, only those of us who walk around have a way to remember which test paper is whom." The villain estimated that if Lord He wanted to do something on the test paper, he would definitely come to the villain, and when the time came, the villain would just pay a high price to make him vague, which Lord He was stingy and would not want to spend much money for this kind of thing. If Lord He uses the second method, it will be more troublesome, because the chief examiner of this township test is Lord Yan Songyan, and this Lord He seems to be tying up Lord Yan, it is estimated that Lord Yan should help him for this little thing. ”

Nima, sure enough, I'd rather offend the gentleman than provoke the villain, it's really a bit troublesome now.

Yang Cong said with a little anxiety: "Brother Zhang, Lord Yan, do you have a way, how much silver, you just have to say." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ping shook his head and said: "This doesn't need silver, Yang Gongzi, don't you know Lord Zou and Lord Zhan, they are both deputy chief examiners, as long as you ask them to take care of it, I believe that Lord Yan will not offend two important ministers of the court for the sake of a head of the Ministry of Rites." ”

This is indeed reasonable, villains are basically selfish, they won't do it at a loss, no matter how awesome Yan Song is, it is impossible to offend the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites and the priest of the country for the sake of being the head of the Ministry of Rites.

This Zhang Ping is really powerful, Yang Cong couldn't help but arch his hand and said: "Brother Zhang, thank you, please bother to look at my test paper, how much silver you want, you just have to speak." ”

When Zhang Ping heard this, he rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "This little thing, forget it, if Yang Gongzi doesn't dislike it, he will be a villain and make friends with Gongzi." ”

Of course, this friend has to be paid, and this silver has to be given, so that you can taste the sweetness, and you will think about looking for me to make money.

Yang Cong shouted outside without hesitation: "Take a hundred taels of silver." ”

Soon, a guard came in with a bag of silver.

Zhang Ping was still about to refuse, but Yang Cong forced the silver into his hand, he gave it up again, and thanked him, and then he left with the silver with a red face.

Yang Cong looked at his back, and his brows furrowed again.

This is the whole thing, it seems that he is still a little too impulsive, and when he encounters a villain like He Gongzi in the future, he has to be careful.
