Chapter 240: Fighting Wisdom
The people in the Grand View Garden were all summoned to Daoxiang Village on this day. www.biquge.info Baoyu's spirit has been a little sluggish recently, and when she thinks of soaking in the mixture of urine and vinegar for a whole hour that night, she can't help but want to pick up the soap and wash her body.
The weather is good, the spring breeze is like a bath, and Yingchun is also supported by the maid, sitting in the sheltered place, smiling and chatting with Tanchun.
Li Kun saw that everyone was almost together, so he said: "It seems that everyone is still happy to run this poetry club, okay, when Sister Feng comes, let's let her take the silver out." ”
Baoyu said with a smile: "What my sister-in-law said is very true, I have long wanted to set up a poetry club." These sisters, in the Mid-Autumn Festival in previous years, can also come up with good poems, but they don't have a name, they can't afford to set off the storm, let's set up a poetry club, and there will be a name in the future, right? ”
Yingchun said with a smile: "A few sisters, my poems are the most ungraded, and I still don't participate." ”
Tanchun grinned and said, "How can my sister say that." Don't we still have officials, if you think it's worse, let the officials polish it, you say yes, officials? ”
Lin Lan smiled: "Uh...... Right. ”
Yingchun muttered and said, "The officials seem to be very reluctant." ”
"Where, it's just that this poem is also considered in refining words, and if the sentence is changed, it will be unrecognizable. So, good verses are made in one go, where are they changed. ”
Li Kun nodded in agreement and said, "Aunt Lin is really a poet, and what he said is so right." ”
"Ouch, you brothers and sisters must be in a hurry, sister, I should die, damn!"
Everyone stood up to greet them. Baochai said: "Sister-in-law Lian wants to take care of a large family in Rongfu, we will set up a poetry club and invite you to visit, but it is tired of Sister-in-law Lian." ”
Sister Feng held Baochai's hand and said happily: "It's still my sister Baochai who will hurt people." This east family celebrates the birthday, and the west family holds a funeral, and the etiquette must not be lost. A few days ago, the accounts of the funeral in Ningfu, the final account of the Grand View Garden, ouch, my sister is so busy that I have no skills. Today, I told you Second Master Lian, let him bear everything, and I also stole half a day of leisure to talk to you great poets and show your talents. ”
"Where is Sister-in-law Lian, where can we be considered great poets, but it's just a few nonsense."
Li Kun said: "Today, I called Sister Feng over, just thinking about the cost of this poetry club, you are the big shopkeeper of Rong Mansion, and you have to pay for this silver." ”
Sister Feng raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "I said, no one who composes poems on weekdays comes to call me a rough person, this time I call me over for the first time, and my feelings are here to ask for money, ouch." ”
Li Kun said: "You have to agree, let's finally set up a poetry club, we can't talk empty words, we have to use money to buy some things or something." How about you be the supervisor of the poetry society? ”
Sister Feng smiled: "Don't coax me, I guessed, I was invited to be the imperial history of the prison society!" It's clearly asking me to be a copper merchant who makes money. Whatever society you make, you must take turns to be the host. You don't have enough money to spend, so you came up with this way to persuade me to go, so that I can ask for money. But the idea?"
Li Kun smiled: "You are really a crystal hearted glass person."
Sister Feng smiled: "It's a shame that you're a sister-in-law!" Give the girls to you to study and learn the rules of needlework, they are not good, you have to persuade. Now that they have a poetry club, how much money can they use, you don't care?
The old lady, the wife, was the old feudal king. Thy monthly thou hast ten taels of silver a month, twice as much as ours. Old lady, Mrs. also said that your widow is unemployed, pitiful, not enough, and there is a boy, and the enough has added ten taels, and the old lady, Mrs. Ping, etc.
and gave you a garden, and every man took rent. At the end of the year, you are the top and the best. Your mothers, there are no ten masters and slaves, and the food and clothing are still in the official. In a year, there are four or five hundred pieces of silver.
At this time, you will take out one or two hundred taels of silver every year to play with them, how many years can you have? Each of them is out of the cabinet, do you want to pay for it? At this time, you are afraid of spending money, and instigate them to trouble me, I am happy to eat a dry river and sea, and I don't know it!" (Note)
Li Kun smiled and said: "Listen, when I said a word, he went crazy and said that two cars of scoundrels and mud-legged people would make a careful calculation and allocate two pounds." This thing owes him to being a young lady in a famous family of poetry and books, and he is like this when he gets married, he is still like this, if he is born in a poor small family, he is a boy, and he doesn't know how to be a poor mouth! Everyone in the world has been calculated by you!" (Note)
Sister Feng glanced at Lin Lan, who was happily looking at Lin Lan on the side, and said, "Look, it has to be our Aunt Lin who is shrewd." The two of us quarreled over this silver, and you all reached out to me for money, but you forgot that there was still a money lord among you! ”
As soon as Lin Lan heard this, this Sister Feng led the fire to herself, and said, "What is Sister-in-law Lian talking about?" ”
"What words? Sisters, let me tell you, your sister Tanchun now has a thousand taels of silver in and out of her hands a day, which is more powerful than our rent collectors. ”
Tanchun hurriedly said: "Where did my sister say, there are not so many words. ”
Sister Feng's eyes lit up and said, "Ouch, it's all my own family, what are you doing to hide it?" Aunt Lin is not only talented, but also has a great ability to make money. Listening to the steward of the Zhenguo family, it seems that he has made up a kind of wine called Wuliangye, and the Niu Guogong went to the winery in Lin Mansion and bought ten catties directly. ”
The more Baoyu listened, the more uncomfortable she became, she pursed her lips and said, "Ten catties of wine are only worth a few dollars, and my sister-in-law is really talking big." ”
"Oh, Brother Bao, you are in the garden, you don't know that the wine of the immortals is precious, this wine, one hundred taels of silver a catty, what do you think? Those who can afford to drink are all rich people in Beijing. ”
Everyone was shocked, one hundred taels of silver a catty, it seems to be more expensive than the sky, right? Drinking this sip is like drinking a piece of silver, it's too scary.
Tanchun saw that Lin Lan didn't have the intention of covering it up, so he said: "It's not as exaggerated as my sister-in-law said, this wine, the officials said, is made from grain, and the people take food as the sky, if it is sold cheaply, the market is too good, and this grain is ruined, so it is sold so expensive." Up to now, the ten catties that were sold to Zhen Guogong were sold, and the rest added up to a few taels of wine. Most of them are still given as gifts to the mansions of various nobles in Beijing.
Lin Lan doesn't like to deal with those things, but since Tanchun took over the Lin family's business, this extremely high financial management ability instantly made her a rare strong woman in Beijing.
Sister Feng smiled: "Look, such a little rich woman is sitting in the middle, and you still let me get a broken household to give out money, it's really hard for me." (To be continued.) )
