After the few people who asked for the account left, one of them asked: "Big brother, why don't you beat up that scholar, that scholar is obviously playing tricks on us, and that painting is obviously a guest like a cloud, just find a random gentleman to write it, where is it worth four hundred taels of gold." ”

The leader gave him a fierce look and said, "Don't you know about me?" But the painting has been burned to death without proof, and he says what is not what it is. And that person knows Fu Yin, although we also have some relationship with Fu Yin, but do you think someone will speak for us when we stab Fu Yin? The most important thing is that the person went to Yuelaiju to see the banquet of Fu Yin today, do you know who is participating? A few people shook their heads, they never cared about these things.

"Except for Fu Yin and some officials, the rest are the top three in the county exam, these are either not small in the family, or they are extraordinary, and they will definitely become officials in the future, these people are not a last resort, we don't want to mess with them, and we can't mess with them, do you remember?"

The rest nodded. "And that's it? How does that person deal with it? ”

A big man asked, and the leader frowned and said, "Lock it up first, and then talk about it later." After Lin Mo finished dealing with the matter here, he saw that the sky was getting dark, and the hour was almost up, so he went to Yuelaiju.

At this time, there were several officials standing at the door, and the lights were lit up outside the restaurant, and there were already many people in the restaurant, Lin Mo straightened his clothes and stepped to enter, and a small official suddenly stopped in front of Lin Mo and said: "Stop, Lord Yin is holding a banquet in the restaurant today, outsiders are not allowed to enter, please go to other restaurants." When Lin Mo heard this, he smiled and said, "This adult, I am here to attend the banquet. ”

When the little official heard this, there was a suspicious look in his eyes, and then he asked, "May I ask who is the son of who is from what county?" ”

Lin Mo replied respectfully: "Chen Nan Lin Mo." ”

The little official immediately changed his attitude: "Oh, it turned out to be the head of the Lin case, and it was the official who was clumsy, please come in." With that, he got out of the way and let Lin Mo in.

Lin Mo thanked him and went in, and more than a dozen scholar-like people came to the restaurant, communicating with each other there, and one of them immediately stepped forward when he saw Lin Mo coming: "Xing Rong in Xiajiangpu, I don't know what is it?" Lin Mo hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Lin Mo in the south of Xiachen." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be the head of the Lin case, look up for a long time." After finishing speaking, Lin Mo wanted to say a few more greetings, but the person's reaction made Lin Mo a little confused, and the rest of the people avoided him when they heard that Lin Mo had avoided him.

At this time, Lin Mo saw an acquaintance, who was the son of the third Lu family in Qiannan County. Lin Mo walked towards Lu Guan, but when Lu Guan saw Lin Mo, his face immediately changed, and he turned around and walked towards others.

Lin Mo was a little confused, he didn't offend these people, why didn't he want to pay attention to himself, especially Lu Guan, who participated in the county exam with him, he was in the same class, why didn't he ignore himself.

Lin Mo came to the door depressed to breathe. At this time, a fat man dressed gorgeously and out of place with others came to the door and was stopped by the officials. The little official was not there, so the official had to ask himself: "Today, Lord Yin held a banquet, who are you from in which county?" ”

The fat man nodded and said, "Yes, I am from He County." I'm here for the feast. ”

When the official heard this, he immediately said: "Where did the madman come from, don't mess around here, leave quickly." As he spoke, he pushed the fat man aside.

The fat man said angrily: "I am from He County, why don't you let me participate." When a few officials saw this, they stepped forward to drive the fat man away.

Lin Mo hurriedly stepped forward and said: "A few officials are slow, there may be some misunderstanding here, this person's name should be He Ren, from Yunzhou Mansion and County." Isn't that so? ”

After Lin Mo finished speaking, he looked at the fat man, and the fat man immediately nodded and said, "Yes, I am He Ren from He County, the third in the county test, and I came to participate in the banquet." When several officials heard this, they immediately knew that they had heard it wrong, and hurriedly invited the two of them in.

The fat man walked in angrily, and when he saw Lin Mo hugging his fists, he said, "Brother Xie is righteous, and I will repay my brother in the future." As he spoke, he patted Lin Mo the shoulder.

Lin Mo smiled helplessly at this time: "Yongquan reciprocation is exempt, can you stop shooting me, my body is weak and I can't hold on." "He Ren was embarrassed to withdraw his hand when he heard this, his own size, ordinary people really can't stand it." By the way, brother, what's your name? He Ren asked.

Lin Mo smiled and said, "Under Lin Mo." "You're Lin Mo?" He Ren said in surprise. "Uh, what's wrong? Do you know me? Lin Mo asked suspiciously.

He Renshen said mysteriously: "The little brother came to Yunzhou City last night, and when he visited Lord Yin, Lord Yin mentioned you in passing, saying that you are talented and intelligent, and you have extraordinary literary talents, and you will make great achievements in the future." Lin Mo was a little surprised when he heard this, first, this Du Shaofu praised himself so much, and second, this fat man was actually qualified to visit Du Shaofu, it seems that the power in his family is not trivial.

Seeing that Lin Mo's eyes had changed when he looked at him, He Ren hurriedly explained: "Brother, I don't have much ability at home, generations of booksellers, a few bookstores, and a few boats. In addition, the books of Yunzhou Prefecture and County School are funded by our family, so there is still some intersection with Lord Fu Yin, and I went to visit Fu Yin to donate 1,000 new books to Yunzhou's Mansion School and various county schools. ”

Lin Mo was really shocked when he heard it, these nine county schools plus a fuxue, seven or eight thousand books a year, a book is less than a few pennies and more than a few taels of silver, and it will definitely not be too bad to give to the fuxue county school, and it will be counted as two or three dollars of silver, then it will be more than two thousand taels, plus pen and ink, a student with a better family background will spend at least two taels of silver a year to buy pen and ink, a county school counts one hundred people, nine nine hundred, plus a little more fuxue people, there are two hundred, one thousand one hundred people, a total of two thousand two hundred taels, Lin Mo calculated, This year, at least four or five thousand taels of silver were donated out, which is really a local tyrant.

Lin Mo couldn't help but shout: "Rich, are you a friend?" ”

He Ren was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Keyou, Keyou." ”

Lin Mo asked with a smile: "Brother, why is your family so rich, you have to donate more than four or five thousand taels a year." ”

He Ren was stunned for a moment and said, "Four or five thousand taels? In fact, there is not so much need, because the paper of the county school and the government school is purchased from our family, and some money from it can be regarded as filling a little. ”

Lin Mo immediately understood when he heard this, this He Ren's family is really not a vegetarian, although the paper is not expensive, but it is a lot of consumables, a person uses a few sheets a day, thousands of people, adding up to a lot, together Lin Mo has reason to believe that this He family should not lose too much money, and may even be able to make a little surplus. And this donation has also gained a good reputation, and it has also made friends with officials at all levels, which is also very helpful to his own business, killing three birds with one stone.

Lin Mo sighed that there was no treachery, no business, no treachery, and then He Ren whispered: "Do you feel that the other people present are not friendly to you, and even a little hostile?" Lin Mo nodded when he heard this, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, do you know why?" ”

Ho Ren

Said: "Hey, it's not because brother, you are too dazzling, the poem you tried in the county, Lord Fu Yin attaches great importance to it, and even made a note himself, to present this poem to the Daoli, and then submit it to the Ministry of Rites to compile a book for Your Majesty to preview, brother, you are going to be famous." Because of this, those people are jealous and isolate you. ”

Lin Mo smiled bitterly when he heard this: "If I knew that this would happen, I would definitely not write this poem." He Ren looked at Lin Mo strangely and said, "Other scholars want to be famous, but brother, you don't like to be famous." ”

Lin Mo said helplessly: "Brother, I just want to open a shop, earn some silver, marry a wife and become a rich man, and the scientific examination is also taken by the way, I don't plan to raise any literary names or anything like that, it's too troublesome, I hate trouble." ”

He Ren smiled when he heard this: "Brother is really an extraordinary person, but he is not so open that ordinary people can see."

I'm also afraid of trouble, how comfortable it is to be a rich man at home, what are you doing here, you can't eat and eat, you don't have time to play, you have to pretend to be Sven when you come, it's really fucking uncomfortable. ”

Lin Mo listened and nodded: "Brother feels the same way, you are my bosom friend." The more the two chatted here, the more speculative they became, while the others saw Lin Mo chatting with a gorgeously dressed person who was full of copper smell, and their hearts were dissatisfied and they became more and more disdainful of Lin Mo.

Lu Guan was a little entangled, although Lin Mo snatched his case, but if he really talked about strength, he would definitely not be able to take his turn, and this was to show Lord Fu Yin, in case it was really discovered by Lord Fu Yin, he really couldn't afford to lose this person, thinking of this, Lu Guan was still very grateful to Lin Mo in his heart, and his father said that Zhou Xiancheng's approach was also to protect their Lu family, and he should not hate Lin Mo.

Thinking of this, Lu Guan understood, so he took the initiative to talk to Lin Mo.

"In Xialuguan, I haven't seen Brother Lin's restaurant for a few months, how is Brother Lin lately? Who is this child? Lu Guan took the initiative to say hello and frightened Lin Mo, but then reacted and said with a smile: "Brother Tolu, everything is fine recently, this is He Ren, the third in the county test." He Ren clenched his fists at this time and said, "Brother He Ren has seen Brother Lu." ”

The three of them chatted for a while, and Lu Guan whispered: "Brother Lin, be careful, this time there are not only the top three in the county exam, but also some outstanding talents in the government school, all of whom are outstanding." This banquet is not simple, and when the time comes, Brother Lin may compete with Brother Lin and adapt to the situation, it doesn't hurt to suffer a little loss, don't be strong. Lin Mo nodded when he heard this, Lu Guan did this out of concern for himself, and he couldn't live up to Lu Guan's kindness.

Just as the three of them were talking, a voice came: "Lord Fu Yin is here!" ”

Everyone looked at the door and saw a middle-aged man in a purple robe appear at the door, it was Yin Du Shaofu of Yunzhou Mansion. Du Shaofu saw that everyone came to greet him, and waved his hand again and again: "You don't need to be polite, you don't need to be restrained today." Then he led the people into the hall.

There are several rows of chairs and short cases at both ends of the hall, and there is a brewed tea on the table, and directly above the hall is a chair with Huanghuali and a long case, which is naturally for the Fu Yin Du Shaofu to sit on. The scholars are divided into two sides, of course, this is also about the rules, the closest to Fu Yin is a few people in the top ten of the last government examination, and down is the head of the county, and after the head of the case is the second or third in the county test.
