Chapter 208: Someone Sells Exam Questions
Ji Datong laughed and said: "Yes, that's right, even if they meet again in the future, they won't quarrel anymore, because they can both fine each other's money, but this money is to be confiscated, and it can't fall into their own pockets, which is only bad for them, no good, so in order to ensure that they don't pay money, they can only pretend not to see each other." ”
Li Rizhi nodded and said: "This will also make it so that the two of them will not have any more disputes, at least the same disputes will not appear again!" ”
He pointed to the release pond again, and said: "Anyway, the people of this workshop come here to fish and bathe, there is no way to manage it, since this is the case, then let them do their own things quietly, as long as they don't quarrel and cause disputes, that is to let the Jichaguan save you worry and effort!" ”
Ji Datong nodded again and again, and said: "Brother Li is too right, besides, this release pond is here, if you don't let the people of this fang get some convenience, it will not be unfavorable!" ”
Li Rizhi thought to himself: "It turns out that you can use such a method to resolve disputes, which cannot be learned in books, and the knowledge in books is too orthodox to solve the disputes of ordinary people. ”
At this time, there were more people who came to the pavilion to settle disputes, each talking about their own, and some people were still arguing in the pavilion, which was more lively than the vegetable market, and even so noisy that it was already shocking to the eardrums!
Chen Yingying was impatient, she walked out of the pavilion and walked to the edge of the release pond to watch the scenery, Fu Guibao and Cheng Zizi also moved outside the pavilion, standing outside the pavilion, you can also hear Ji Datong dealing with disputes, and it is not so noisy.
Only Li Rizhi has been standing by Ji Datong's side, watching Ji Datong foaming at the mouth to deal with disputes, while listening, he nodded at the same time, Ji Datong has countless handling methods, he has really learned a lot, no wonder the county lieutenant specially asked him to follow Ji Datong, in Ji Datong's body, he can indeed learn a lot of things.
Chen Yingying walked around the release pond, this release pond is a reservoir used to fight fires in the workshop, the edge of the pool is quite neat, but if you want to talk about the scenery, there is nothing too good about the scenery, after all, this is not a place to enjoy the scenery!
After walking around the release pond, I walked around a small half circle, and then I came to a place with a tree, under which there were stone tables and stone benches, which could be used by the people to rest, but it was now daytime, and the people were running around to make a living, but no one was in the mood to sit under the tree and chat.
Seeing that there was a place to rest, and there were no people, Chen Yingying walked to a small stone bench and sat down, she sat here, she could see the small pavilion, and even hear the sound of quarrels in the small pavilion!
Chen Yingying frowned, it was too noisy over there, I really couldn't stay, I really don't know how Li Rizhi could stand up, he stayed in the pavilion all the time, that Ji Datong is also powerful, listening to these bad things about the east and west families all day long, he can still live all the time, and he is living very well, it is really a miracle!
She was thinking about it, and there were people looking at him not far away, a middle-aged Confucian who had a lot of fairy wind bones, saying that he was a fairy wind and dao bones, because he was holding a Taoist priest's hair bun on his head, but he was not wearing a Taoist robe, but a Confucian shirt, and he was dressed very well in the world.
The middle-aged Confucian stood at the mouth of a small alley, observed for a long time, seemed to be thinking about something, and when he thought about it clearly, he left the alley and walked towards Chen Yingying, he went to Chen Yingying's side, and said: "This young brother, but a scholar who came to Beijing from other places to take the exam?" ”
Chen Yingying turned her head, looked at this middle-aged Confucian student, and wondered in her heart, is there something wrong with this person's brain, the boss is not a small person, his eyes are so bad, and he is still a young brother, he has a wrinkled face, and he is embarrassed to call her Brother Nian!
Although she is wearing men's clothes, she still wears light makeup on her face, wears gorgeous jewelry rings on her hands, and even wears delicate studs on her ears.
In some places, it is not convenient for women to enter and exit, but Chen Yingying pretends to be a son-in-law, and everyone will default to her being a man, giving her a certain amount of convenience, and everyone will not break it.
For example, she can follow Li Rizhi to enter and exit the yamen and visit officials, and the officials will not ask who she is, nor will they say anything to her, but only acquiesce to her existence, such as Peng Ji and the county lieutenant, Chen Yingying wants this kind of convenience.
But if you are like this middle-aged Confucian student, run over and call Brother Nian, this is a little inappropriate, how bad it is to look at women, and insist on seeing women as men, and come over to talk!
Chen Yingying is not used to talking to strangers, she waved her hand, like chasing flies, wanting to drive away this middle-aged Confucian student, she said: "No, you go away, don't talk to me!" She spoke rather unkindly.
If you want to change to someone else, and you are obviously so disgusted by a son-in-law, you must leave, whether it is admiring her beauty, or seeing her gorgeously dressed, anyway, if you see that she doesn't give others a chance at all, then you will know the difficulty and retreat.
But this middle-aged Confucian is not, it seems that he had expected such a result, took a step back, pretended to leave, but did not go, he said: "This year's scientific examination questions, but it is very rare, I don't know how many people should fall off the list, come in vain!" ”
As he spoke, he pretended to leave, but in fact waited for Chen Yingying to stop him and ask why he knew the topic of the scientific examination!
This middle-aged Confucian had already observed just now, Chen Yingying was a son-in-law, of course he couldn't see such an obvious thing, but he also saw that Chen Yingying was a very rich person, and she was with the young scholars in the pavilion.
Those young scholars gathered around an official and a small official, I don't know what they were doing, but one thing is certain, that is, their status is not high, otherwise why would they be surrounding a small official, if they have a high status, then they should know a high-ranking official!
Therefore, the middle-aged Confucian scholar can be sure that these scholars belong to the rich, but no status, and must belong to the sons of merchants, so he came over to talk to Chen Yingying, and he thought in his heart that women are always better to talk.
Chen Yingying listened to this middle-aged Confucian student talk about the scientific examination topics, and she immediately knew that this person was a liar, because Tong Guinu once said to Li Rizhi that it is absolutely impossible for the scientific examination questions to be leaked in advance, so all the people who sell the topics on the market are all liars!
But when she ran into a liar, Chen Yingying also felt quite interesting, so she asked: "How do you know that the topic is difficult, could it be that you came up with the question?" ”
The middle-aged Confucian immediately stopped, turned around and said: "It's not me, but it's someone I know, I've seen the question, it's really difficult, especially the question of Jinshike, if you can't know it in advance, then after entering the examination room, you have to be enlightened, there is originally ten percent of the skill, it is estimated that it can only play so two or three percent!" ”
After saying that, he kept shaking his head and sighing, as if he had seen countless scholars fall off the list and go home gloomily.
Chen Yingying stood up and said, "Have you really read the title?" Can you tell me no, I can buy it for money! ”
The middle-aged Confucian scholar was happy in his heart, and he was not mistaken, this woman is really good at talking, and she is willing to spend money with one mouth, but she still has to take it in her own way, so that she can sell it at a good price.
It wasn't the first time he had done this kind of thing, and he knew the importance of controlling the heat, so his face showed hesitation, full of thoughts about it, but he didn't want to say it right away!
Chen Yingying said: "Money is negotiable, you wait for me here, I'll call them over, you wait!" As she spoke, she trotted over to the pavilion.
But after a few steps, she stopped and said, "How much are you going to sell for that topic?" We came from other places, and we didn't have much cash with us, and we had to exchange them for jewelry, and if it was more than 5,000 yuan, then we might not be able to afford such a problem. ”
The middle-aged Confucian scholar was surprised and delighted, five thousand, in fact, he really doesn't need so much money, give fifty yuan, he can happily sell the so-called topic, or even give a dozen yuan, he can sell it, anyway, it's a fake topic, he doesn't have the capital of a penny, and he makes money by selling it!
The middle-aged Confucian nodded again and again, and said: "Okay, I'll wait for you here, I can't hide it, I'm a staff member of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials, and I have won the trust of Lord Shangshu, otherwise how would I know the topic, you go and come back quickly, I'm very busy, but I don't have time to wait!" ”
Chen Yingying snorted, trotted to the pavilion, the middle-aged Confucian stood in place and watched, and saw Chen Yingying enter the pavilion, said a few words, and then the scholar in the pavilion looked this way, and then the scholar came out of the pavilion, and the two scholars standing outside the pavilion followed him, trotting to this side!
The middle-aged Confucian scholar was extremely excited, seeing that these scholars were so anxious, this business would definitely be able to be done, five thousand yuan, this is really sky-high!
Cheng Zizi ran the fastest, already surpassing Li Rizhi, he ran to the middle-aged Confucian and shouted, "That's him, right?" ”
Chen Yingying shouted: "That's right, it's him, he is the only one here, how can it be wrong!" ”
Cheng Zizi said: "Okay, that's right!" ”
The middle-aged Confucian scholar smiled, raised his body and stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "Are they all scholars who came to Beijing from other places to take the exam?" ”
Before he could put the momentum of the fairy wind dao bone to his feet, he saw that the scholar who was running in front actually pulled out the knife, he was immediately startled, and hurriedly took a step back, shouting: "What are you doing, what are you going to do, the gentleman doesn't move his hands......
Cheng Zizi used his knife back to prepare for the middle-aged Confucian man, and gave him a snap, although the knife back hitting someone will not be fatal, but the pain is definitely painful, this is not discounted at all!
The middle-aged Confucian man sighed, holding his head and fell to the ground, until this time, he didn't understand why a few scholars would beat him, he hadn't even spoken to them, logically speaking, they couldn't know that they wanted to lie to them!
Cheng Zizai stepped forward and pressed the middle-aged Confucian to the ground, pulled out the middle-aged Confucian's belt, cut the middle-aged Confucian's hands backwards, and tied them behind his back!
Chen Yingying stepped forward at this time, kicked the middle-aged Confucian scholar, and shouted: "Stinky bastard, how can you see in your eyes that I am a good deceitful, you don't even look for others, but look for me, and you think you can deceive me, are you insulting me for being a fool who is easy to deceive?" ”
What made Chen Yingying most angry was not that the middle-aged Confucian wanted to cheat her of money, she had money, so she didn't care about money, but she cared very much about why the middle-aged Confucian didn't lie to others, but came to deceive her, which made her very unbearable, so she ran to the pavilion and directly said that someone wanted to insult her, and didn't say anything about the scientific examination topics at all, and then Li Rizhi and they ran over together!
Li Rizhi asked, "This person wants to lie to you?" What did he say? ”
Chen Yingying snorted and said, "He said that he wanted to sell me this year's scientific examination questions, and he also said that he was a staff member of Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, because Shangshu trusted him very much, so he would know the scientific examination topics!" ”
Li Rizhi looked at the middle-aged Confucian scholar, he also remembered what Tong Guinu had said to him, he never expected that he would catch one here!
