Chapter 47: An Awkward Encounter
More than 10,000 taels of silver, definitely not like in the opera, touch it in the sleeve, and then smile and solemnly say: "There are 10,000 taels of silver here, please smile." β
Now there is no silver ticket to say, of course, some people say, there is no silver ticket there is Jiaozi, in fact, silver ticket and Jiaozi is not a concept, simply put, the silver ticket is bearer certificate of deposit, that is, the current bearer passbook, and Jiaozi is RMB. And now the depreciation of the Ming Dynasty's Jiaozi is like waste paper, and the people refuse to trade and circulate Jiaozi.
Therefore, 10,000 taels of silver, according to 1240 grams of silver in the Ming Dynasty at that time, this 11,000 taels, that is, 440 kilograms, is almost half a ton, it is a whole carriage, how can you carry it with you?
So Song Yuanshan said sincerely: "Early tomorrow morning, I will personally send 11,000 taels of silver to Brother Mao's mansion in full." β
Mao Yulong smiled and shook his hand: "It's not necessary to send it to my house, just trouble Brother Song to send the 10,000 taels of this silver to the Qiantang County Ya." β
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, what did Mao Yulong do, he needed such a large sum of money to bribe the county order? And so blatant?
At that time, Xuezheng's face darkened, and the eyes of others looking at Mao Yulong became disdainful.
At this time, Xu Jie, the shopkeeper of the grain store, stood up and explained with a smile: "You have misunderstood, Mao Xiaoxiucai's silver is a great good deed, a great righteous act, if you don't have this 10,000 silver, you still want to cling to the tail wing and participate in the righteous deed." β
Since Mao Yulong put down his Xiucai figure and exchanged the price difference for rice in Xu Jie's grain store several times, Xu Jie has paid attention to this little Xiucai, of course, the current Mao Yulong's affairs are in control. From this, he knew that he was going to raise money to save his neighbors, and he really wanted to help at that time, but now it's good, this Xiaoxiucai actually achieved such a big thing with a small gambling contract, which made Xu Jie optimistic about Mao Yulong.
So he told everything he knew about Mao Yulong raising money to save his neighbors.
Originally, things were not ordinary, and Xu Jie, who ushered in the daily send-off and practiced a set of sharp mouths, said that this is simply a righteous romance with ups and downs. At that time, everyone present was very excited, and their blood was boiling.
So they even asked for help.
At that time, Mao Yulong made a series of gestures: "It's just the duty of the neighborhood to watch and help each other, in fact, this time the younger brother is not kind, and he pit Brother Song to raise this silver, this is actually the credit of Brother Song, I still want this matter to be over, please Xuezheng praise Brother Song for his righteousness." β
These words made Song Yuanshan even more happy, and he was humble again and again.
Xuezheng stepped forward, grabbed Mao Yulong's hand, and Song Yuanshan's hand, laughed and said: "Today, I learned that my disciples have such a good talent and beautiful jade, and the old man was very relieved. β
Mao Yulong was humble again and again, and Song Yuanshan trembled.
Since there is such a good story, of course, there is no need to celebrate, when the students were drinking and singing in the bamboo forest outside the temple. Of course, according to the rules, you can't drink alcohol in the temple, but the host of this temple can make a garden to collect money, where is the taboo to clear the rules and precepts? Of course, as long as the owner is satisfied, he will also take out the vegetarian hospitality with a smile, as for the wine, the little novice has already bought it at the bottom of the mountain, and he has to make some extra money.
Wine, some people can drink it, but some people don't have a chance to do it. Mao Yulong in his previous life was known for being able to drink in the unit. For this reason, whenever a superior leader comes over in the unit, he is the one who charges ahead, and for this reason he is also promoted. But the mind can drink, it doesn't mean that the body can stand it, and now with his thin body, he can't accept the test of alcohol.
But anyway, his performance today was outstanding, and he also won a good fortune, plus the righteous act was coaxed out, and he won the favor of the teachings and Xuezheng, I didn't want to drink, but Xuezheng persuaded with a smile: "How can the young handsome show live up to this beautiful day?" Drinking some wine also means that you are open-minded, and you are specially allowed to drink rice wine, and drink and drink, if it is not in the way, the old man is the same as you, and I look younger. β
The rules of the workplace are ordered from above to down, otherwise it will be contrary to the meaning of the above. Bo the face above, this is absolutely not good, Mao Yulong can only follow the rules and drink nonsense.
Who said that the wine of the Ming Dynasty was low-degree, and the height was also there, but also because of Mao Yulong's outstanding performance, and because he was favored by the scholars and ministers, of course, it became the trend of the stars holding the moon, and he was drunk in the dark by his classmates in the same year.
Okay, okay, this is the era, you need all kinds of connections, just drink it.
In the end, he was still unable to drink, and his steps were weak, especially the rice wine, which was equivalent to the beer in the market, which was intoxicating and swollen, and there was a burst of urgency, no way, Mao Yulong sued him and stumbled to a small relief.
In this bamboo forest, you can't do this, so Mao Yulong walked out of the bamboo forest, but he found that he couldn't be relieved when he walked out of the bamboo forest, because there were various buildings of the temple outside.
On the festival of plum blossoms, it is not only these literati who are vassals and elegant, but also more men and women.
Between the crutches, I found a place where there was no one, solved the problem heartily, and was about to go back, but suddenly felt that my stomach was overturning, so I held on to the wall with one hand and pressed my stomach with the other, complaining in the dark.
Comfortable, quite comfortable, and then wiped his mouth with his sleeve casually, and was ready to go back, but when he looked up, he was embarrassed to Mao Yulong again, because just under the corner of the red wall, two pretty girls were looking at him in surprise, and just this one, Mao Yulong suddenly appeared in his mind again, an umbrella lit with plum blossoms on the bridge, under the umbrella, a girl in white and a sister in blue clothes appeared in front of him again, It simply sketches an ink painting scroll in the south of the Yangtze River.
And I think that at the beginning, I had a dark yellow umbrella, a green shirt, and two small wings on the back of my head, standing on the bridge opposite the bridge, shaking my little wings with people, and smiling with hooligans on my small shoulders, and finally, I completed the image of a squirrel, leaving a bad image in the girl's heart.
And today, in front of their sisters, they were even more embarrassed, and they vomited in the dark.
"I don't write poetry anymore, I'm meβ"
What am I? He really didn't know what to say.
As a result, the sister covered her mouth and chuckled.
Is it a joy to watch a man vomit?
As a result, the little girl in the green skirt pinched her nose and hid far away, pulling her sister to point at Mao Yulong: "This is the disciple, what did I say?" It's not a gentleman yet, you see, he was scared on the bridge that day, and then look at today, he drank like a dog. β
Hearing such a judgment, Mao Yulong also wanted to stand up straight, ready to make a glorious image, but the action was a little violent, just stood up straight, but his stomach was overturned, and he immediately leaned against the wall, vomiting in the dark. When he turned around again, he saw the two little sisters taking a few steps back in disgust. Mao Yulong immediately took out a smile, showed his teeth with a hint of vegetable leaves, smiled at others, and tried his best to pretend to be chic: "Drinking between classmates in the same year is inevitably full of ugliness, but it makes your two sisters laugh and be rude." β
As a result, the little sister rushed up directly and punched him in the stomach: "It's not just a faux pas, it's just a scoundrel." β
Mao Yulong definitely didn't expect that the force of this punch was so great, he hit him like a shrimp, and his stomach turned over more violently, but he was still sane, for fear that he would vomit on the other party's face, so he hurriedly turned his head and wanted to vomit somewhere else.
Originally, this was a normal reaction, when he turned his head, he spit out easily, but there was a pretty face in front of him, because that sister, seeing that her sister was so rude, was ready to step forward to help him, and the result was like this, Mao Yulong couldn't hold it back, so he spit on her face.
Is it embarrassing or not? Quite embarrassing.
apologized, he couldn't describe Mao Yulong's mood now, he almost wanted to kneel down for this girl he had loved for a long time.
My sister screamed, fled in a panic, and found a place to wash, and the little sister punched Mao Yulong again, Mao Yulong was very angry, and really wanted to spit on her head and face directly, but she retched a few times but couldn't vomit anything. Also, I've vomited many times, where is there anything to vomit?
The little girl smiled and gestured at him again, "I'm a practitioner." β
At this time, a beautiful voice came: "Xiaowan, come back quickly." β
"Well, I'm coming." The little sister agreed, and then showed off her fists at Mao Yulong like a demonstration, turned around and ran.
Mao Yulong stood here in a daze, his heart was really turning a thousand times, although he didn't know the girl's name, he didn't know the address of her Xiang family, and he didn't know if there was such an encounter, but a shadow of a smile was imprinted in his mind, heart, and soul.
