Chapter 1259: Stone Paper

"You're generous, and the silver is enough to buy two of these donkeys." Out of the house where the seeds were rolling, Old Man Kong said to Shi Yuan very dissatisfied while driving the donkey cart. After all, the silver was given to him by Shi Yuan before, which made him always feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"That's the only money I have, and there's no way to give it if I don't give it. Besides, money is something outside the body, which cannot be brought with it in life and cannot be taken away in death...... In these years of war and chaos, even if the money could buy two donkeys, he would not have a place to buy them. Behold, I have taken advantage of it. Regarding Old Man Kong's dissatisfied question, Shi Yuan grinned and replied very carelessly.

Shi Yuan has never suffered a loss in business, but this time, it is an exception. It's not that he suffered, but ...... He didn't care about the question of whether he suffered or not.

When Old Man Kong heard him say this, he couldn't help but turn around and look at him twice, "I didn't expect you, a kid, to be able to see through these at such a young age...... It seems that you are a master who is not short of money. If you were poor, you wouldn't say these things. ”

Shi Yuan heard it and didn't speak, thinking about it carefully, since the crossing, he really hasn't been short of money. Even if the Lin family is aside, speaking of which, he is now the master of the rich family. What Old Man Kong said is very reasonable, in his eyes, he can indeed be called a gentleman.

"The two of us have known each other, tell me about it!" Seeing that Shi Yuan didn't speak, Old Man Kong asked again.

Although this donkey cart can pull the two of them, the sound of "squeak" and "squeak" fell on Shi Yuan's ears, but he was a little upset. Now, the only advantage of this donkey cart is that it can substitute feet, as for the speed...... But not much faster.

"Huh? Cumber didn't know what he wanted to know? The thoughts in his mind were chaotic, and when he heard Old Man Kong ask, he was stunned, and then asked curiously.

"Although the world is not peaceful, but your family background is not bad, the Beiqing army has not yet attacked Jiangnan, so he took 10,000 steps back and said, this army has attacked the city and broken the city, with your family background, there is not necessarily danger. Why did you flee here at this time? Old man Kong didn't ask, but it didn't mean that he was confused and didn't know. At the moment, there are only Shi Yuan and him, this journey is still far away, and these things are all used as idle chat.

"What Comber said was true. In fact...... I am the descendant of Dong Qingyun, the governor of the three provinces of Nanqing, if it is an ordinary family, there is no danger, but my family background is different, and the Beiqing army will break the city and attack the city in the future, I am afraid that there will be a disaster of destruction. That's why he fled here, always leaving a vein of ......" these excuses and reasons, he had already thought of them. Hearing Old Man Kong ask, he followed Dong Qingyun's name and replied. He and Dong Feng are commensurate with brothers, and they are friends with Dong Qingyun, and it is not impossible to say that they are the descendants of the Dong family.

"Governor of the three provinces? Gee...... That's a big official! However, since the family is Dong, why are you called Shi Yuan? "I'm afraid that Old Man Kong has never seen such a big official as the governor of the three provinces in his life, let alone any contact with the family of such a big official. But even so, he was not afraid of Shi Yuan. In this chaotic year, even after the royal family, when you come here, you have to listen to him obediently.

"How can I tell someone my real name? I hope my uncle can forgive me. The name Shi Yuan was just something I said casually. This is not difficult to explain, and the reason given by Shi Yuan is completely reasonable.

"But as far as I know, this Shi Yuan is a powerful person over there in Nanqing. exterminated Qinglian, and commanded the three armies in Yangzhou Yubeiqing Army...... This is Beiqing's big enemy, you don't know it, right? Obviously, Old Man Kong didn't think about it for a while, but now, he has recalled what kind of character this "Shi Yuan" he felt familiar was.

Shi Yuan was also stunned for a moment when he heard this, because he didn't expect Old Man Kong to really recall. This somewhat surprised him, and then he looked up and laughed: "I didn't expect Kong Bo to know so much." The name of this stone day has already worn here......"

"What's this! Before the war, no one in Chongzhou City knew that there was a stone day in Jinling, and the paper made was more expensive than gold! Tell me, it's more expensive than gold, what kind of paper is that? The ...... of this dog's day Alas......"

After hearing Old Man Kong's words, Shi Yuan finally understood: his name had already been spread when he was in Jinling before...... It's just that paper is more expensive than gold, which makes him a little unthinkable. Especially when he heard Old Man Kong gritting his teeth and saying "dog day" at the end, which was full of envy and resentment, it really made him a little depressed.

"Comber, actually...... I have seen this Shi Yuan Shi Ritian, so I will use his name. No one would think he was going to come here, would they? ”

"Oh? Have you seen him? What he looks like, let's hear it. I've always heard people say that this Shi Yuan is the reincarnation of the earth, eight feet tall, and his waist circumference is also eight feet...... It's like a water tank......"

Old man Kong seemed very curious about this kind of rumor, but these words made Shi Yuan almost protrude blood! He is wise and martial, how did he come out of those people's mouths and become like this? When I was in Jinling before, Liuli listened to those storytellers on the street and laughed at herself, I thought that no one believed this exaggeration, but now I look at it...... The so-called three people become tigers, whether everyone believes it or not, this statement is difficult to change.

"Uh...... That Kong Bo, in fact, this stone is very handsome, and this knowledge is just a rumor. He treats people really well, and he used to drink with me at the same table, but he is also a cheerful person...... "No matter what people in the world say, now Shi Yuan always has to save his image in the heart of Old Man Kong."

"What a cheerful person! Paper is sold for more than gold, and he is obviously a profiteer! However, his ability is not small, a businessman, and now he is actually in contact with the Beiqing army...... Well, enough guts. "Old man Kong heard the Tao, obviously he didn't have a good impression of Shi Yuan, who was rumored in the market, but he didn't have much malice.

"This ...... I think you're misleading, don't you? The paper that Shi Yuan helped the Lin family make was cheaper than others, which also caused dissatisfaction among the Jinling Jin family and set off a bloody storm...... Why do you say that this Chongzhou paper is more expensive than gold? ”

"I don't know what Jinling looks like, but some time ago in Chongzhou City, the real price of this 'stone paper' was better than gold. I heard that it is hard to find a piece of paper, and those foolish scholars in the city are crazy......" Old man Kong shook his head and said.
