Chapter 383: How Many Golden Buddhas Are There?

Lan Qihua's complexion changed, and Yan Zhiping's face was also cold, feeling that this person was too rude.

Zhang You's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile: "I'm tired of this lame, and I can be recognized wherever I go...... Yes, the contemptible person is Zhang You, and he hasn't asked Mr. for his name? ”

Mr. Hu Li was stunned, is this really the Ming Weibo who makes the master hate to death? How can you talk so well?

The people who watched the excitement outside the door were also a little dumbfounded, but it was the old man Sun who reacted first, and asked suspiciously: "Little brother, are you really Ming Weibo?" ”

He didn't use honorifics, but Zhang You was not disgusted, looked at him with a smile and said: "In fact, those who hate me are used to calling me 'dead lame', but unfortunately the lame is lame, but death has not followed their wishes." ”

"Young Master is funny...... That's right, this is the owner of the contemptible name, Ming Wei Bo Zhang. ”

Yan Zhiping interjected in a timely manner, and now everyone had no doubts, led by Old Man Sun, and the black pressure bowed, and Mr. Hu Li was helpless when he saw this, so he could only kneel down and salute.

"It's not a formal occasion, there's no need to be so formal, everyone, please get up!"

Everyone only felt that Zhang You didn't have a little shelf, he was very cordial, and kowtowed sincerely, and then he got up, and Old Man Sun said: "Little old man is clumsy, I should have recognized your old man a long time ago, we can pick it in Miyun County, and there is no character like you, just talking nonsense, the earl must not be like the little old man." ”

"What did Uncle Sun say? It's just nonsense, what's not weird, I've heard your real evaluation of me, I have to thank you. "Respecting the old and loving the young is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and Zhang You is so polite, not entirely for show.

Listening to everyone's ears, the feeling is different, you must know that in these years, the class hierarchy is strict, and an approachable person like Zhang You is definitely an outlier.

Everyone became more and more respectful, and even his lame feet felt less conspicuous.

"Don't dare, don't dare, little old man can't afford to be an earl, you say so." Old man Sun was terrified and waved his hand again and again.

"You should be, because you are the most respectable people in the world, without your hard work, those officials and gentlemen in the court would have to go hungry one by one......" Zhang You's words were funny, causing everyone to laugh, and their awe was greatly reduced, and they felt more and more amiable.

“…… Speaking of which, there are some things I really want to talk to you about, and if nothing else, I will just say one thing - eat! The people take food as the sky, this is an ancient saying, and it is also the truth, I am also the common people, and the hard life is not necessarily less than that of everyone, I know the importance of food best, and I don't hide it from everyone, even if I am not short of food and clothing now, I never waste a grain of food, why, because I know that every grain of food is not easy. ”

Everyone listened very attentively, the scene was very quiet, Zhang You took a breath and continued: "In the past two years of the great drought in Zhili, I know very well what kind of life everyone is doing, there are beggars, there are those who sell their sons and daughters, and even more, there are also the situation of Yi Zi and food, these I see in my eyes and feel pain in my heart. Why is it so miserable? Isn't it all about running out of food? ”

"What the earl said is that we are all ordinary people, and we rely on those few acres of thin fields to get by, and the year is better, barely enough to have food and clothing, and if the year is not good, we can only starve...... Xiao Lao'er wanted to ask, are the corn and sweet potatoes really as good as the yamen said? ”

Sun Laohan asked, and with his words, everyone's eyes became more and more hot.

Zhang You made a long speech, in order to promote corn and sweet potatoes, Sun Laohan's words naturally hit the nail on the head: "I dare not guarantee the yield of these two crops, nor do I guarantee to everyone their advantages in drought and flood resistance......

Hearing him say this, everyone was disappointed, but he changed his words: "I only promise one thing, all those who sign a document with my Daming silver number to plant these two crops in the spring, when the autumn harvest comes, those whose income is not enough to plant rice and wheat will not only make up the difference for everyone, but also exempt the borrowed money." ”

"Really? You're not kidding, are you, Count? ”

"And this kind of good thing?"

"Aren't you afraid of losing money? That's tens of thousands of taels of silver? ”

……

Everyone was surprised and delighted, and there were some doubts, and they asked questions one after another, and the scene was very chaotic, so that Zhang You didn't know who to answer.

"Let's be quiet, let's be quiet, and listen to what the little old man says." Sun Laohan suddenly said loudly, perhaps because he felt that he and Zhang You were a little closer, and everyone shut up one after another and quieted down again.

"Grandpa Earl, you are a happy person, and the little old man does not hide it from you, you heard it just now, blessed they suspect that the so-called corn and sweet potatoes are particularly valuable, you give us a happy word, is that really the case?" Sun Laohan said, and added: "Blessed is the one who argued with Xiao Lao'er just now." ”

"My name is Wang Wei." The short-dressed man interjected quietly, and Zhang You smiled at him, making him feel embarrassed, and subconsciously scratched his head.

Zhang You looked away from Wang Wei, looked around, and saw everyone looking at him expectantly, and couldn't help laughing: "There is a saying that things are rare and expensive, and the big guys must know it, but it's not a secret, the original origin of corn and sweet potatoes is thousands of miles away from my Ming Dynasty?" It is drifting across the sea, only in the southernmost Fujian Province, Guangzhou and other places are rarely planted, we are still the first in the north, before there is no large-scale planting, it is worthless, everyone thinks for themselves. ”

"Okay, little old man believes in the earl, and this will sign the document with the silver number."

Sun Laohan said first.

Wang Wei followed and said, "I will sign it too." ”

Immediately afterwards, everyone signed up one after another, and everyone was excited, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

"Everyone, be quiet." Zhang You stretched out his hands and pressed them downward, and only after quieting down in the four corners did he say: "Thank you for your trust in me, if you are willing to sign the paperwork, line up, Uncle Sun is old, let him come first." ”

Everyone had nothing to do, and they all looked at Sun Laohan with envy and stepped forward first.

"Earl, what should I do with this golden Buddha?" Mr. Hu Li finally couldn't help it.

Zhang You seemed to think of him just now, turned around and said, I'm sorry. Patronizing and talking to everyone, I forgot you, you want to use this golden Buddha mortgage to borrow money, right? Old Yan, has the Golden Buddha checked the authenticity? How much is it worth? ”

"I have experienced, there is no doubt that real gold is worth five thousand taels of silver."

"The Golden Buddha weighs five hundred and fifty taels, which is only worth five thousand taels of silver, even if it is not redeemed in the future, the earl will also make money." Mr. Hu Li said in a non-yin and non-yang manner.

Zhang You smiled slightly, stepped forward and bent down to push the Golden Buddha, which was really heavy, so he got up and said with a smile: "The business sent to the door, it would be stupid to push it out, Lao Yan, give him silver!" ”

said and looked back at the eight-character beard: "I heard just now that you still have dozens of such golden Buddhas in your hands?" As long as you want to arrive, you can bring them all, how many I will follow!! ”

"You-" Mustache's face changed greatly, and then changed into a smile: "How many are really?" ”
