Chapter 254: My father is the governor
"My lord, I've been very bored staying in the farm for a few days, I wonder if I can go to the city with you to see it?"
Fang Laohu has been staying at the farm since he knew Li Ling's identity, and he wants to follow the other party to seek a future.
He didn't want to rob tombs for a living, let alone be a farmer for the rest of his life.
The cause of the food poisoning was found to be caused by alcoholism by the Chef of the Faculty Division.
The teacher department naturally accepted the punishment, and they not only compensated the guests for their losses, but also apologized to the Wang family sisters and brothers in public.
I didn't expect that a few days later, the Department of Education suddenly sent someone to send an invitation letter, but I don't know why?
"My lord, is it true that the Jiaofang Division still needs the Wang family's wine, so they sent someone to invite you over, so that you can talk about it between the two, so that they can continue to buy the Wang family's wine?"
Fang Laohu also thought of only one answer, he had also tasted the wine brewed by the Wang family, it was really sweet, and it was not impossible to say that the Fang Si would bow his head because of this.
"Absolutely not, the Wang family just doesn't buy the wine they brew to the Jiaofang Division, but they don't prohibit the Jiaofang Division from buying it from other wine merchants, they don't have to go to such trouble if they want to continue to use this kind of wine!" Li Ling denied Fang Laohu's statement and opened the invitation letter in his hand.
"Humph!" Li Ling sneered, it turned out that a woman named Lu Qi took up the position of the new Zuo Sile and invited the nobles of the capital to the Jiaofang Division for a banquet.
Li Ling originally didn't plan to pay attention to these ups and downs, but the content behind it really attracted him.
The earth dragon near Mount Tai turned over, and many refugees had to flee from their homes to other places to earn a living.
These people were worried that there would be aftershocks, and because they were tenants who had destroyed their crops in the earthquake, they were worried that the landlords would collect rent as usual according to the previous rules, so they had no choice but to flee to other places.
Most of them came in the direction of Jingshi.
In order to help the government do a good job of resettlement work in advance, the new Zuo Sile decided to take out some paintings and calligraphy that he had treasured for many years and sell them for charity, and all the proceeds were donated to help the refugees.
"It's really a big hand, so compassionate, they spend so much energy to bring together the dignitaries in the capital, compared to the scene must be very grand, I wonder if the adults can take me to see it?" Although Fang Laohu was born in poverty, he was still very envious of the doctor's life.
Of course, Li Ling would not refuse Fang Laohu, in fact, he did need a follower. And Fang Laohu knows some jade appreciation, which is the most suitable.
"My lord, let's bring the batch of dog blood jade in your hand and sell it, this thing is not a mascot, just keep one or two for spare!" Fang Laohu reminded.
It is not a good thing to have more than ten pieces of dog blood jade at home, so it is better to make a move as soon as possible.
Li Ling nodded and agreed.
In his opinion, although each of these blood jades was worth hundreds of taels of silver, they were not very valuable.
Although Zuo Sile is only a music official from the ninth grade, he is a big man in the Teaching Workshop Division.
In particular, every new official is a leader in the teaching department, presumably not only beautiful as a flower, but also has profound attainments in music theory, and the dignitaries are naturally eager to rush to it.
When Li Ling came in with Fang Laohu with an invitation, the hall was already full of people.
These people are all wealthy businessmen or officials, or a bunch of gentlemen, all of whom are characters with very backgrounds.
At this time, Lu Qi was sitting behind the curtain and playing a song "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", and the aftermath was melodious.
"What a song!". With such talent, it is no wonder that there can be such a battle.
Fang Laohu didn't know how to be elegant, and after he sat down, he shifted his gaze to the table.
I ate a few fruits, then picked up the flask on the table and began to take a big sip.
"My lord, this is really not the wine brewed by the Wang family, it seems that the business of the Jiaofang Division is going to be reduced!" Fang Laohu took a few sips of water and wine and noticed the difference.
This wine is too light, not as enjoyable as the Wang family's water wine!
He ate and drank unscrupulously here, and finally attracted the attention of others, and many people at the table began to look sideways.
Fang Laohu realized the disgust of others and quietly shut up.
After a beautiful tune, Midori finally got to the point, and she explained the purpose of the banquet to the guests.
"What we have taken out this time are the calligraphy and paintings of celebrities collected by our teaching department over the years, many of which are rare treasures, and I will ask you to make a little more contribution to the victims who have lost their homes!" Lu Qi said loudly, her voice was crisp and had a unique flavor.
Her deliberate act of hiding behind the curtain really aroused the appetite of the guests. The nobles began to talk one after another, and everyone wanted to know what kind of face was hidden under the curtain.
"Don't talk about those calligraphy and paintings, I don't know how much Si Le's appearance is worth, I will donate fifty taels of silver to the refugees, but I want to see Si Le's appearance!"
I don't know which one of them roared casually, and it immediately aroused the interest of the others.
"I'll give a hundred taels of silver, hoping to be able to see Zuo Sile alone."
"I'll give you two hundred taels of silver!"
The sound of price bidding came and went, and the price was gradually raised.
There are many wealthy businessmen in the capital, and there are naturally many people who are willing to spend a lot of money for beautiful women, but when a teenager reported a thousand taels of silver, the people in the hall collectively lost their voices.
"I'll give a thousand taels of silver, just to see Miss Luqi!" The young man stood up from his seat and said proudly.
The crowd stopped bidding, and naturally the young man won, and after looking around at the crowd sitting for a week, he began to walk in the direction where Lu Qi was.
"My lord, a few thousand taels of silver is nothing to you! Why don't you give a few thousand taels of silver? Although this is a little rich, it is better than the bird's anger of this young man! ”。 Fang Laohu didn't care about this young man's arrogant appearance.
Li Ling shook his head, he would never spend a lot of money for this so-called Zuo Si Le, otherwise the matter would spread out, and he was afraid that his reputation would be bad, and he would not do this kind of thankless thing!
"This son, please stay, the slave family also gave a thousand taels of silver to the refugees, please let the slave family go for the time being, why don't we meet again when our fate arrives, I don't know what the son thinks?" The green girl spoke out and stopped the young man who gave out a thousand taels of silver just to see the truth.
Obviously, he is not the person Miss Midori likes.
As soon as the young man heard this, he became furious, and at this time, he could no longer care about pity and cherishing the jade, he shouted loudly: "Why, you look down on me Liu? The father of the family is Liu Guang, the official worship of the governor of the five armies, the governor of the left capital, the first rank of the imperial court, in charge of the defense of the Beijing Division, can you meet the girl with this identity? ”。
It turned out that this high-roller was actually Liu Guang, the son of Zuo Dudu, a well-known gentleman in the capital, who had always relied on his father's identity to run rampant, no wonder no one dared to bid with him!
"This boy misunderstood, the slave family didn't look down on anyone, but according to the rules of our teaching department, if you want the girl to come forward for the first time, you must have an excellent poem to accompany you, I don't know which one of you is willing to make a poem?" Miss Luqi rejected Liu Guang neither humbly nor arrogantly, and the rules of the Teaching Department for many years are unbreakable.
This custom has been used for many years, and the Qinglou has a lot of attention to the general JI/female comb, not to mention the first time that the female official of the Teaching Workshop Division is displayed in front of people.
"Then what is the use of me spending a thousand taels of silver, am I going to have this money in vain?" Liu Guang said indignantly.
was tricked once for no reason, he was really angry in his heart, if it wasn't for Lu Qi's appearance, he would have started scolding people a long time ago.
"If Childe doesn't dislike it, we can jointly donate to the refugees, which is a common intention between the two of us, I don't know what Childe wants?" Lu Qi had already thought of a countermeasure.
In the Teaching Division, what kind of characters have you never seen? Liu Guang is just a gentleman, as long as he is held high, anything can be solved.
"It's such a blessing to be able to sign with Miss Luqi!".
The guests began to be envious, and Lu Qi's face could be seen sooner or later.
There are not many such opportunities, and Liu Guang can be regarded as standing out among many guests.
"Isn't that possible?". Liu Gongzi flicked his sleeves and returned to his seat.
All he cared about was showing his might in front of people.
"Since Liu Gongzi has no doubts. Let's start the next link, I don't know which talented person is willing to write a poem for this girl? ”。 Miss Green began to urge.
She is looking forward to having someone make a good poem for herself, and the good story of a talented woman will be passed on forever. (To be continued.) )
