When the shopkeeper of the calligraphy and painting shop saw a man dressed as a farmer, he didn't even bother to say anything to welcome customers, and lowered his head to continue settling accounts. Zhang Wei saw that the room was full of pictures, including landscapes and figures, and the painting was exquisite, so he couldn't help but say to himself: "If I bring this back to modern times, I will make a fortune." ”

Turned around and came to the shopkeeper and asked, "Boss, do you accept paintings?" The shopkeeper glanced up at Zhang Wei and said, "Is it the scenery or the characters?" Zhang Wei said: "It's a figure painting." ”

The shopkeeper said coldly: "The thirty texts of the characters." Zhang Wei Daqi: "Why did you offer a price without even looking at the painting?" ”

The shopkeeper said impatiently: "You know what kind of painting you know, can you sell a painting for a hundred taels if you paint a master?" Roll on! ”

Zhang Wei snorted coldly: "Shopkeeper, if you have a painting here that can be worth a hundred taels of silver, my painting is worth a thousand taels at least!" ”

The shopkeeper listened to Zhang Wei's astonishing words, stopped what he was doing, and looked at Zhang Wei coldly, only to see that although this person was dressed simply, he was not like an ordinary farmer, and he was not sure of it for a while, and said: "Then please draw it for me to see and understand." Zhang Wei thought to himself that this person was snobbish, and I had to pretend to sell it at a good price, so he slowly took out a small red paper from his pocket and carefully flattened it in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper never thought that the painting would be so compact, and he was busy holding it up and looking carefully, only to see that the characters were painted vividly, the patterns next to it were arranged neatly and orderly, miscellaneous but not messy, and there were a few Chinese characters next to the characters that he did not know.

Zhang Wei laughed secretly, and still pretended not to care on the surface and said: "This painting is a double-sided painting, you look at the back!" When the shopkeeper turned over the banknotes, he saw that there seemed to be fairy clouds on a glorious palace on the back, and he was even more surprised and admired. Zhang Wei took back the banknote and said, "Boss, give me a price." ”

The shopkeeper withdrew his gaze, looked at Zhang Wei again, and said, "This painting is worth fifty taels." Zhang Wei didn't know that he was trying to lower the price, and frowned: "The shopkeeper is not trying to deceive me, I have found a famous artist in Xiangyang to see the paintings and I have come out of 1,000 taels, if I am not in a hurry to use the money now, I will not come to your remote town to sell paintings." ”

After speaking, he turned around to leave, but the shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed Zhang Wei and said with a smile: "The villain is clumsy, it was everyone in the painting, and fifty taels of silver is the villain's compensation money, and the villain is willing to pay another eight hundred taels of silver to receive your painting." Zhang Wei was deceiving him, but he didn't know that he had really received a sky-high price, and his heart was naturally happy, and he still forced himself to calm down on the surface: "I can't hide it, my painting is handed down during the period of King Wen of Zhou in ancient times, it is the treasure of the world, and there is only one in the world. The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Wei's instructions, and saw a picture similar to the main picture in the blank space, and he opened his mouth wide in shock, and he couldn't say a word. Zhang Wei hit the railway while it was hot: "But I didn't let that famous family know this mystery, just to see that the boss is still sincere in your treatment of others, so I treat you with sincerity." ”

How dare the shopkeeper not believe it at this time, this is not a god painting and what is it, how can anyone hide the painting in the paper, trembling and handing the painting to Zhang Weidao, the son is here for a while, this painting villain can't be the master, I asked the owner to take a look, after saying that, he turned around and entered the inner hall, and the guy next to him hurriedly came over to pour tea for Zhang Wei, and was attentive.

Zhang Wei tasted the tea and shook Erlang's legs proudly. After a while, the shopkeeper came out and said with a smile: "The owner invites the son to the inner hall for a talk." After that, he stuffed a money bag to Zhang Wei and said: "This is the meaning of the owner, whether it is successful or not, these fifty taels of silver as reparation, please smile." Zhang Wei secretly praised the owner's ability to do things, and accepted it with a smile. The shopkeeper was relieved, and led Zhang Wei into the inner hall, and he exited the room and took them with him.

The furnishings of the inner hall are very elegant, with an incense burner in the middle, exuding a faint fragrance, and the sunlight shines into the ground through the gap in the window, making people feel like they are in a fairyland. In the middle of the inner hall is a soft couch, on which it seems that a woman is half-reclining, through the pink gauze curtain, it is not clear to see. "Childe, please be seated." A coquettish and infinite voice came from behind the curtain, which made people think about it.

Zhang Wei arched his hand and found a place to sit down. In the Han Dynasty, there was no chair, only a table, and a cushion behind the table was considered a seat, Zhang Wei imitated the ancients and knelt on the side, saying, "Are you the owner?" The woman laughed coquettishly, trembling wildly, and said, "Childe is a cheerful person, looking at Childe's heroic appearance, he looks more like a northerner." ”

Zhang Wei snorted and replied. Seeing that Zhang Wei was reluctant to mention her life experience, the woman walked out from behind the curtain, Zhang Wei's eyes lit up immediately, and she saw that this woman was about twenty-five or sixteen, her skin was white and tender, and she was indescribably beautiful, revealing a fox. He sat down with Zhang Wei as if he was boneless, put his hand on Zhang Wei's shoulder, and blew like a blue road: "Does Zhang Gongzi look good at the slave family?" ”

Zhang Wei felt the soft whisper in his ear, felt the woman's plump breasts, his face turned red, and he hurriedly moved to the side, and said, "I'm here to sell paintings, and I ask the owner to give a price." The woman said: "Don't call the owner, the concubine is not nameless and surnameless, the concubine's surname is Zhao, her name is Yudan, you can call it Yudan or Dan'er, but I don't know what to call the son." ”

If in modern times, this kind of woman is the type that Zhang Wei dreamed of, but Zhang Wei was in a hurry to sell paintings, and he was anxious that Yun'er was outside, how could he dare to talk to Zhao Yudan, who didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd. Zhengse said again: "In Xia Zhang Wei, please ask Miss Dan'er to make a price." ”

Zhao Yudan looked at Zhang Wei meaningfully and said, "It's better to ask the son to make a price, the slave family will never bargain." Zhang Wei didn't understand the market, he wanted to find out the bottom, but who knew that the opponent's chess was high, so he stubbornly said: "This is an ancient treasure, but I have no choice but to sell it if I am in a downturn, and I will definitely not sell it if it is less than 5,000 taels." Zhang Wei originally wanted 10,000 taels, but he was worried that the other party would not be able to end up if he refused, so he shouted 5,000 taels, knowing that this was also a lion's mouth.

Seeing Zhao Yudan bowing his head and being silent, as if he was thinking, Zhang Wei's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and no one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing. Zhang Wei gritted his teeth and just wanted to open his mouth to reduce the price, only to hear Zhao Yudan make up his mind and say: "I don't want the son to know the goods so well, now I really make the cheap concubine convinced, it's just five thousand taels and five thousand taels, but..." Speaking of this, he suddenly looked at Zhang Wei, Zhang Wei's heart that he had just put down was raised again, and he still looked at Zhao Yudan calmly on the surface, and the latter continued: "But the slave family can only give the son four thousand five hundred taels at present, and the slave family has a house in the east of the city worth a thousand taels. Don't forget my little woman when you want your son to soar. After speaking, Yanran smiled and walked back to the curtain and sat down, and then called the shopkeeper to take Zhang Weihua to collect the money.

When he came out, seeing Yun'er looking around anxiously, Zhang Wei was in a good mood, secretly walked behind Yun'er, suddenly reached out and blindfolded Yun'er's eyes, and said strangely: "Guess who I am?" Yun'er didn't understand this frolic, screamed in panic, poked an elbow on Zhang Wei's ribs during the struggle, Zhang Wei bent down in pain, everyone around stopped to watch, and a few big men wanted heroes to save the beauty, Yun'er saw that it was Zhang Wei, and hurriedly came over to help, and hurriedly apologized.

Zhang Wei smiled bitterly: "The heroine's martial arts are world-famous, and the younger brother is willing to bow down." Yun'er saw that Zhang Wei was fine, so she hid her face and smiled, and the people around her dispersed when they saw that they were bored.

Zhang Wei excitedly pulled Yun'er to the stall selling hairpins, and said proudly: "The hosta and the silver hairpin just now are wrapped for me." Yun'er looked at Zhang Wei in surprise, I don't know why Zhang Wei has money in this meeting, Zhang Wei pretended to put the hairpin on Yun'er's head mysteriously, and said: "Yun'er is so beautiful, we will have a good life in the future!" ”

This house in the east of the city is really bold, with black tiles and white walls on the outside, and a garden inside, more than ten rooms before and after, with all kinds of furnishings inside, Zhao Yudan's people got up and left after sending the silver, and only Zhang Wei and Yun'er were left in the huge courtyard, which seemed slightly deserted.

Yun'er said: "Jingli (Zhang Wei changed the table character to Jingli, it looks more normal), where do the three of us use such a big house, where did you get the money?" Zhang Wei heard Yun'er call so cordial for the first time, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and took out four hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and said: "This is my hometown's money, I exchanged one for two pieces of silver and this mansion here, how about it?" ”

Yun'er curiously took the hundred-yuan bill in Zhang Wei's hand, looked up and down under Zhang Wei's guidance, and was secretly surprised, Zhang Wei proudly took out a piece and stuffed it into Yun'er's hand and said, "This is for you." Yun'er hurriedly waved her hand and said, "This is too precious, how can Yun'er bear it." ”

Zhang Wei smiled and said, "Then this should be the dowry that my Ming Media is marrying you." Yun'er was so ashamed when she heard this, even the roots of her ears were red, and she didn't know where to hide, Zhang Wei liked Yun'er's reserved and shy nature that only classical girls have, laughed, and said, "Let's go and tell your brother the good news!" The good news that Zhang Wei pointed out was naturally that she had made a fortune, but Yun'er thought that Ming Media was getting married, and her face was even redder.

After this battle, Zhang Wei seems to have found the foundation to survive in this troubled era, and his strong self-esteem as a man has also returned, no matter what dynasty, money is the basis of survival.

The two found Zhang Sheng at the salt stall in the west of the city, the latter was bargaining with the store on the basis of reason, Zhang Wei asked the price, threw out the silver casually, pulled Zhang Sheng back to the new house with a surprised face, and retold the previous story aside, Zhang Sheng, who only listened, was dumbfounded.

After a while, Zhang Sheng asked Yun'er to go to the dormitory, and suddenly kowtowed to Zhang Wei, so frightened that Zhang Wei also knelt down and kowtowed.

Zhang Sheng said: "It turns out that you are really a fairy, you can kill a tiger with the power of one person, and you can conjure up so much money, please forgive the villain's offense." Zhang Weiqi said: "When did you offend me?" ”

Zhang Shengfu said: "Immortals can't marry mortals, and I have asked you to marry the villain's sister many times, isn't it offensive?" Zhang Wei said helplessly: "I really am not an immortal, so to speak, my home is in the far north, I somehow got here, my hometown is completely different from this, so there are so many things you haven't seen, I am just an ordinary person, I didn't agree to marry Ling Mei before because I am completely unfamiliar with this environment, and I don't know if I can live here, the eldest husband can't even settle down, how can I marry a fairy-like character like Ling Mei, I can't bear to let her suffer with me." Now it's different, I decided to formally propose, and I hope that Brother Zizhong will agree. "It's uneven.

Zhang Sheng was suspicious when he heard this, took out a short sword from his waist, and suddenly stabbed Zhang Wei's arm. Zhang Wei was completely defenseless, couldn't dodge, and his right arm was cut and bleeding. Zhang Sheng threw his sword and laughed, and said, "You are really not an immortal, and immortals will not be injured, haha." Zhang Wei's face was black, and he felt like he had become a guinea pig for theists.

The next day, Zhang Sheng and Zhang Wei bought some poor men and women who sold themselves from the city gate to serve as domestic maids, and appointed Zhang Sheng as a housekeeper.
