Chapter 5 Ten Taels of Gold
There were people coming and going on the dock, and everyone lost interest in Zhou Xing's hexagram stall after laughing for two days. Today, I suddenly saw someone coming to tell the fortune, and I was immediately curious and gathered around. Under the obstruction of the warrior, he watched from afar.
"Wow, it's really strange that someone really came to Zhou Xing to test words."
"That person doesn't seem to be an ordinary person, I'm afraid it's an unborn son, I don't know the details of Zhou Xing."
"Just look at it, don't speak, be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth."
Everyone talked about it, some people laughed, and some people saw that the identity of the person who measured the word was extraordinary, and they didn't dare to say more.
Zhou Xing's heart was also a little nervous. He carefully recalled the words of the blind fortune teller at the door of his house when he was a child, and thought about how he should say it, not only to arouse the interest of this big man, but not to cause himself to provoke murder.
The young man in the Chinese costume was also looking at Zhou Xing. In fact, he has seen a lot of these people who go to the rivers and lakes to tell fortunes, but he has not had much contact with a young man like Zhou Xing.
In fact, he had already seen that this fortune teller was a halfway monk. But he didn't break it, because this fortune teller has something he is interested in.
This thing is the same as what Yao Guangxiao once told him.
Yao Guangxiao is his wise trust, his military advisor, and a ruthless monk.
Zhou Xing saw with his own eyes that the young man in the costume used the tip of his right foot to write a word on the sand.
It's simple, it's just a horizontal.
"One? This word is too simple, right, it's just a horizontal line, what can be measured? ”
"Yes, I look at other Mr. Word Measurement, the word that is measured has at least seven or eight paintings, this one word, what does it say?"
Word measurement, I'm not afraid that the words you write are too complicated, the words are complicated, and there are many things that can be pulled. On the contrary, the simpler the word, the more difficult it is to measure.
The people around who watched the excitement, some smiled and waited for Zhou Xing to make a fool of himself, and some were quite looking forward to saying something about Zhou Xing this time.
After thinking for a while, Zhou Xing spoke: "What is Childe going to test?" ”
The young man in the costume raised his head slightly, looked at the brand-new long banner beside Zhou Xing, and said, "Then, ask about the future." ”
Zhou Xing smiled slightly and said, "The son is extraordinary, this future, do you need to ask more?" ”
The young man in Huafu raised his eyebrows and said, "Can you figure it out?" ”
Zhou Xing closed the open book in front of him with his right hand, shook his head and said: "There are clouds in the Book of Changes, the Tao gives birth to one, one life to two, two to three, and three to all things. One is the Lord of all things, and the so-called, ninety-nine are one. ”
His words are in the clouds, there is no head or tail, and everyone around them can understand the lively mud legs.
"It's the same as not saying it."
"Ha, this is a fortune telling, I have already seen it. This kid is just a little cautious, if you want to talk about fortune telling, how can he do that. ”
The young man in the costume was thoughtful and asked, "Can you explain it more clearly?" ”
Zhou Xingdao: "Childe is out of the word 'one', and it is under the foot, is it ......" He lowered his voice and said, "Do you want to reach the world?" ”
Hearing this, the young man in Huafu suddenly changed his face, he leaned forward, stretched the table with both hands, approached Zhou Xing with a face, and said gloomily: "Don't talk nonsense." ”
He looked around, the martial artist closest to the two of them was far away, and just now Zhou Xing's words were deliberately lowered again, and no one seemed to hear them.
"Beware of the misfortune that comes out of the mouth. If someone else listens to it, it is a capital offense. After speaking, the young man in the Chinese costume stood up straight.
Zhou Xing was also startled when he saw his expression at first. However, in order to pass this hurdle, he quickly calmed down and told himself that he could not be frightened by an ancient.
"Childe, you are here to tell the hexagram, I just rely on the hexagram, if the son is not guilty, then why am I guilty?"
When the young man in the costume heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "What a sharp tooth." ”
Zhou Xing said while packing up his things: "I have finished the hexagram, the so-called one life, two luck, three feng shui, your life, son, is unspeakably precious." Feng Shui Tiger is in the dragon plate, but unfortunately the luck is not good. ”
The young man in the costume smiled, and a pair of deep eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts stared at Zhou Xing tightly.
Zhou Xing said, yes, he is indeed extremely rich, one person is above ten thousand people. And now it seems that it is indeed bad luck.
Zhou Xing's two sentences, word by word, spoke to his heart. He is now also at a turning point in his life. He couldn't make up his mind about how to go.
When I went to see Zhou Xing again, in the eyes of the young man in Huafu, Zhou Xing had changed, and he was no longer the fake fortune teller.
"Go on." The young man in Huafu pursed his lips and said to Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing shook his head slightly and said, "Don't say it, don't say it." ”
The prince of Huafu, but he just mentioned his interest, how could he allow Zhou Xing to stop? His voice was a little sharper, and he said, "A gentleman asks about misfortune or blessing, just say it." ”
Go on? What more can I say? Zhou Xing didn't deliberately hide it, but he didn't have anything to say at all. Regarding the records of Zhu Di in history, he can only speculate about these at this stage.
First of all, Yan Wang Zhu Di, in terms of identity, the wealth and incomparable must be right.
Secondly, bad luck is not good, and that's true. Zhu Di is talented, but unfortunately he is not the prince, this is one of them. Second, although the crown prince is now gone, he has left behind a grandson, which is the second.
Third, rebellion is a major event, and if it does not succeed, it will become benevolent, and it is impossible for Zhu Di not to think carefully before he is on the side of the Qing monarch.
And Zhou Xing took a gamble, and now Zhu Di has not yet made up his mind. After all, according to a TV series called "Love Through Time and Space" that I watched before, Zhu Di was forced to choose Qingjun's side out of desperation.
Thinking of the TV series "Love Through Time and Space", Zhou Xing can really say a few words - provided that the TV series has been verified and the plot in it is roughly correct.
Now Zhou Xing can only combine these film and television materials and guess the history he saw in his book.
"Don't dare to say, don't dare to say." Zhou Xing shook his head slightly.
"Say it, or ......," said the prince meaningfully.
Zhou Xing was helpless and said: "In less than half a year, I am afraid that the son will be imprisoned." ”
The young man in the costume was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Prison? How can it be. ”
Zhou Xing said with a smile: "This kind of thing is a fortune telling, and sincerity is spiritual." ”
Then, he spread his hands, and the boy in the costume said, "What? ”
Zhou Xing said lightly: "Hexagram gold, ten taels." ”
"Oh? Hahaha, interesting, very interesting. Here you go. The young man in the fancy costume tore off a gorgeous purse from his waist, took out a piece of gold lump, and threw it on the table.
It was a piece of broken gold.
"History of the Ming Dynasty" records: each banknote is consistent, quasi-money is a thousand wen, silver one tael; Four quasi-gold one tael. So the household department decided: one ingot of banknote, one stone of rice; one tael of gold, ten stones; One tael of silver, two stones. According to this ratio, in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, one tael of gold could be exchanged for about ten taels of silver. That's 10,000 dollars.
The piece of broken gold that the young man in the costume threw away was about more than ten taels.
100,000 yuan is a huge amount of money.
At least for Zhou Xing now.
The hexagram gold that Zhou Xing asked for was ten taels of treasure money, and the prince of Huafu gave him ten taels of broken gold.
Under normal circumstances, gold is not minted into ingots and does not participate in market circulation, but is the existence of general equivalents. The gold you get in hand needs to be exchanged for silver or Tongbao money.
Seeing the boy in a gorgeous costume, he actually made a move of ten taels of gold, and the shipwrights and coolies around him who were watching the excitement suddenly gasped.
I have been carrying goods on this dock for ten years, and I am afraid that I will not be able to make so much money without eating or drinking!
The prince of Huafu took the people away, and when those warriors left, everyone gathered around Zhou Xing like a tide. Zhou Xing clutched the golden bump tightly in his hand.
"Zhou Xing, Zhou Xing, you are so powerful, you actually made so much money all at once!" A boatman looked at Zhou Xing with envy.
He thought that if he could have so much money, he would definitely go back to his hometown, buy a piece of land, build a house, talk about family affairs, and live a stable life.
"Let's have a drink, Zhou Xing, this time it can be regarded as a leak for you." Another boatman said. He saw with his own eyes that Zhou Xing quit his job at the leader's place. At first, everyone thought that Zhou Xing was drunk, did foolish things, and had no livelihood, so he had to starve to death. How many days have passed? Zhou Xing has already earned a huge fortune that they can't even think of.
Zhou Xing raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "How can this be regarded as a leak?" Everything was as I expected. Alas, do you think it's a lot of money? Compared to that son, it's not even a drop in the bucket. ”
Someone asked curiously, "Who is that son?" ”
It's not just him, everyone is curious. What kind of identity is a person who is ten taels of gold as soon as he makes a move.
However, will this Qin Tian reveal? Of course not!
Because, he himself can't be 100% sure that this boy in Chinese clothes is the person he is looking for.
If you talk nonsense now and say it wrong, then minutes are the rhythm of the head moving.
Qin Tian, who has read "The Legend of Deer and Ding", understands that in feudal society, you can't write articles blindly and can't talk nonsense. Otherwise, he will be like a certain scholar in the Qing Dynasty, who said something "Qingfeng is illiterate, why bother flipping through books" and was beheaded.
"Hmph, how do I know who he is? He didn't tell me. Zhou Xing snorted coldly and refused to disclose the customer's privacy.
"Don't you know how to tell fortunes? Could it be that the achievement has not been calculated? Someone laughed.
Zhou Xing said proudly: "I count Qiankun, and I don't count my name, how do I know what his surname is?" Okay, okay, everyone dispersed, and if you are willing to go to Taoxian Restaurant to drink, I will be the east. ”
