After breakfast, Ye Qiu laughed loudly in Qing'er's puzzled gaze and went out. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"! That's what I am......"

Along the way, he saw many passers-by looking sideways at him, and there was still that kind of look at the prodigal in his eyes, Ye Qiu always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with him, so when he passed by a fish shop, he took a photo with the clear water of his house, and then he suddenly understood that it was no wonder that the little girl counted the rice grains to eat when she ate in the morning, and it turned out that she and she were the same.

"Hey, I'm also a beautiful man, how can I self-destruct my image," Ye Qiu muttered, and then said, "Forget it, no one knows me anyway, and today's trip is imperative, there are only three days, I don't want to say goodbye to this world so early." ”

Rubbing his eyes, Ye Qiu yawned, and continued to walk towards the downtown area, what he wanted to buy today were all relatively common items, and he entered a shop, he just used it for writing, there was no need to be too solemn, so he chose a medium-low pen, ink, paper, and inkstone four-piece set, which only cost three hundred wen. It doesn't seem like much, but in fact, three hundred Wen can eat for him and Qing'er for more than 20 days, which is already a lot of money, this is the era when the literary style is prevalent, and the utensils will naturally rise.

After buying the required items, as soon as he left the store, a girl in red passed by him, and a burst of fragrance came to his nose, Ye Qiu couldn't help but be stunned, this feeling seemed familiar, turned his head to look at the back, and suddenly remembered, isn't this the girl who 'killed' Ye Qiu?

Fortunately, his appearance has changed now, and the woman did not recognize him, but Gu Zi entered the store, Ye Qiu naturally would not be stupid enough to go to her to seek any justice, so she raised her leg and left.

"! If you dare to come up to us with this bunch of fucking shit again, you're going to have to smash your stuff next time, and throw you into the street! ”

was wandering on the street, Ye Qiu heard a loud voice in front of him scolding over there, and there were a lot of people around, watching the excitement was never a big deal, and others instigated the scolded person to argue with the big voice, and the big voice didn't dare to offend the public anger, so angry that he pointed at the scolded person and scolded more and more.

Ye Qiu also came over, he had been trained in his previous life to squeeze people, and soon squeezed into the inner circle of the crowd, and saw a middle-aged man in brocade clothes kicking a shabby young man to the ground, pointing at him and scolding, the big man was also extremely honest, he couldn't fight back and scolded, and his body tightly protected the two big bamboo baskets he picked up that were covered with linen.

Others didn't know what this strong man had picked up, only Ye Qiu had a keen sense of what was in the basket flickering through the cracks of the bamboo basket, and the things in this basket would not be too simple.

The sun outside was a little big, and the loud voice was tired, pointing to the strong man and saying angrily, "Hurry up" and shook a fat body into the store.

"Brother this one, are you okay?"

Ye Qiu did not leave, but went up to help the strong man up, the strong man saw that although his clothes were plain, but clean and tidy, at first glance, he was a scholar, the status of the scholar in this era was very high, the strong man hurriedly took two steps back, for fear that the mud on his body would be contaminated on his body, and then said gratefully: "The villain has rough skin and thick meat, and can withstand the beating, it's okay." ”

Ye Qiu saw his respectful appearance, he knew what he was thinking, and he didn't break it, and asked, "I don't know my brother's surname, what do you want to do when you come to this pawnshop?" ”

When the strong man heard this, he sighed heavily, pointed to the two big bamboo baskets on the ground, and said dejectedly: "My name is Meng Niu, I live in Mengjia Village, thirty miles outside the city, last month there was a Hu merchant with these things to defraud me of all my family wealth, I had to bring these things to Hangzhou City to sell, but I haven't sold a single one for so long, so I had to take them to the pawnshop, but the pawnshop owner said that these things are gorgeous and real......

"Flashy." Ye Qiu prompted.

"Ah yes, yes, Childe looks like he's read a book." Meng Niu nodded hurriedly in praise.

Ye Qiu waved his hand, stretched out his hand and lifted the cover on a basket, only to see that there were pieces of transparent glass half a meter square inside, and the thickness was nearly half a centimeter, and there were at least fifty pieces in this basket.

Ye Qiu suddenly understood, it turned out that Hu Shang didn't know where to get so much glass, at this time it was called colored glass, but because the Song people liked colorful glass, this kind of transparent glass with better workmanship was not popular, not to mention that each piece was made into a square appearance, in terms of the aesthetics of the Song people, these things were not as comfortable as a few pieces of white paper, so it was difficult for Meng Niu to sell them at a good price no matter where they were.

"If Brother Meng Niu can trust the little brother, I can help you sell it, and this piece of glass, colored glass, at least sell this amount!" Ye Qiu stretched out a palm and said to Meng Niu.

"Five...... Five pennies? Meng Niu opened his mouth, and quickly sighed again, "It's okay, it's better than not having a penny at all." ”

"No, guess again!"

"Fifty wen?" Meng Niu shook his head again when he saw Ye Qiu, and guessed further: "Five hundred Wen?" ”

Ye Qiu slapped his head angrily: "Five taels of silver!" ”

"Ahh Meng Niu was so frightened that he took two steps back, this piece of glass is five taels of silver, and his two baskets are more than 100 yuan, which is more than 500 taels of snowflake silver!

"I'm not dreaming, am I?" Meng Niu's concentration was still very strong, he took a sip of saliva, and asked again in disbelief: "What you said, it can't be true, right?" ”

Ye Qiu stretched out his hand and pinched his arm, Meng Niu said bitterly: "What are you pinching me!" ”

"Look at it, you know it's painful, how can it be a dream? Let's go, pick them up, brother will take you to make money! Ye Qiu snapped his fingers and ordered, "However, let's talk in advance, we have to divide half of the money we earn......

"Of course there is no problem! Childe is what he says! "I'm about to make a fortune, the price of five taels of silver and a piece of glass is already sky-high in Meng Niu's opinion, and he still has two taels and five for half of the points, so why not do it, and then happily pick up two big baskets.

"Strength is good." Watching Meng Niu carry the two large baskets of glaze weighing more than 100 catties on his shoulders like nothing, Ye Qiu looked at his little arms and legs again, and thought with some envy.

……

"That's it!"

When he came to the door of a big mansion, Ye Qiu raised his hand to let Meng Niu put down his burden, and he stepped forward to knock on the door.

"Childe, where is this? It looks like a big rich family. Meng Niu is illiterate, and the big characters on the card are not as real as two pieces of silver in his eyes.

"This is Chen Guogong's mansion." Ye Qiu pointed to Pai Bian and said, "Chen Guogong was the champion in the middle of the year earlier, and he also served as a civil official in the southern Xinjiang of the Great Song Dynasty to govern the people, when the southern Xinjiang was in turmoil, he commanded 30,000 soldiers against 100,000 strong soldiers as a literati, and finally suppressed the other party, completely subdued them, and returned to the territory of our Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Will he want our glass?" Meng Niu asked.

"Chen Guogong and several of his sons are scholars, and these glasses are of great use to them," Ye Qiu explained, and then said to Meng Niu, "And they are also rich scholars, so I am naturally sure." Look at the way I look at me, and be careful not to talk nonsense. ”

"Don't worry, if I don't open my mouth, everything is up to my son!" Meng Niu patted his chest and reassured.

Ye Qiu nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, the door opened a gap half the size of a person, and a thin old man with a beard stood by the door and looked at Ye Qiu and the two standing outside the door, seeing that they were dressed and naturally attributed them to the master and servant, and said to Ye Qiu with displeasure on his face: "Who are you?" If you want to come to our Chen Guogong Mansion to deliver the papers, I advise you to go, our lord has stopped asking about the affairs of the court since he moved to Hangzhou, and he can't help you. ”

Ye Qiu was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood, at this time, there was still a system for candidates to run papers, if a student wants to enter the official journey as quickly as possible, this is the easiest way, but it is also the most difficult method, first of all, he must have a very outstanding article, and send it to a well-known official in the literary world, if this official sees his article, he will ask him to meet, secondly, he must have a good appearance, if he looks ugly and vulgar, no matter how good the article is, it is in vain, and the scholar is romantic, The same should be handsome and chic, and the face is not up to par, how can you talk about romance? Finally, speech and demeanor should also be courteous and polite, and be able to speak well, if these items are passed, a letter of recommendation will be written to him, and he will be offered a position, which is equivalent to accepting him as his protégé.

"This housekeeper, you misunderstood, I'm not a reader, and I'm not here to invest in the bank."

Seeing that the housekeeper was about to close the door, Ye Qiu hurriedly blocked the door and explained to him.

"Since it's not a scroll, what is that? Presumably, we don't seem to have any relatives like you in the Gonggong Mansion, right? The housekeeper's strength was not as good as Ye Qiu's, the door couldn't be closed, and his tone began to be unkind.

"We're here to talk to Grandpa Guo about some business matters, and I hope the housekeeper can help me report it!" Ye Qiu saw that the housekeeper was about to go crazy, so he hurriedly explained his intention clearly to prevent him from suddenly rioting, in case the thugs of the guard's house and nursing home of the Duke Mansion were lured out, then this trip would have to 'lose the lady and break the army'.

"Our Guogong Mansion is a scholarly family, how can we do any business with you lowly merchants! Hurry up, if you don't leave, I'll call someone! The butler took a sip and chased people away with disdain on his face.

Ye Qiu watched the housekeeper close the door, and secretly said, "Sure enough, the king of Hades is easy to provoke, and the little ghost is difficult", and when he was about to call Meng Niu to continue to the next house, another voice came from the door.

"Who's making a noise outside the house?"

"Little master, there are two men doing business outside, and the old slave has driven them away." The butler said respectfully.

"Doing business? Did you say something to sell? The voice was pleasantly surprised.

Ye Qiu didn't leave immediately after hearing the voice of the lord of the mansion, this was a good opportunity, of course he wouldn't miss it, and hurriedly answered outside the mansion: "Little boy, I'm here to sell a kind of extraterritorial glass, I guarantee that you have never seen it before!" ”

"Quick, butler, get them in, I'd like to see what a novelty it is!" The little young master's somewhat immature voice immediately sounded, obviously having a great deal of interest.
