Chapter 226: Poor Man
Who dares to plot against Tang Yi?
Speaking of which, this person is also well-known in Taicang, his name is Wang Daochong, and he is the second place in the county test, that is to say, there is no such annoying guy as Tang Yi, he is the head of the county test, and according to the convention, the head of the case must be hit, that is to say, Tang Yi took away the show talent of others. Is it worth the painstaking design of yourself just for the sake of this little thing?
Tang Yi hesitated slightly, and said, "Tell Lei Qisheng and ask him to send someone to find out this royal road for me." The fat man nodded hurriedly.
With the goal, Tang Yi's mood was also a lot better, and he walked to the flower hall, only to find that only Xu Wei was left. This guy is lying on top of a tortoise, feeding with a cucumber in his hand!
It turned out that Tan Cong didn't dare to enter the Xuan Turtle, and after being transferred, it was not convenient to carry, so he left this thing to Tang Yi. According to Tang Yi's idea, he wanted to boil a big pot of turtle soup to replenish his body.
I don't know what's going on, it was actually known by the Zhu family, she knew that it didn't matter, even Wang Yueying also knew, the little girl came to visit in person, and after seeing it, she prayed with tears in her eyes that Tang Yi must not be killed, and she must be kept well.
The daughter-in-law's request can not be agreed, but the fiancΓ©e's request must be fulfilled, and Tang Yi has no choice but to build a special greenhouse, prepare fresh melons and fruits, and feed the tortoise. Not to mention, the vitality of this thing is quite tenacious, and it has survived the winter, and as the temperature rises, it becomes more and more lively, and it has to come out and climb for a while every day. The Tang family likes this behemoth very much, and it seems to have become the new favorite of the family.
"Brother Wen, you are also a great talent, can you do something serious? It's okay to teach Shen Lin's articles, that kid has a thin foundation and is so strong. In case the government can't try, it will definitely be on fire again. β
Tang Yi said, sat casually aside, poured himself a cup of tea, and counted Xu Wei while drinking. This guy said that he would be a scholar for himself and that he would help him take exams, but this guy was even more idle than himself, which was unbearable.
Xu Wei clasped his ears with one hand and his feet with the other, rolled his eyes and said, "I want to help, but unfortunately people don't use it." β
"What?" Tang Yi was so angry that he got up and said angrily: "The little rabbit cub is so bold that he doesn't know how to study hard. I must teach him a good lesson! β
Looking at Tang Yi's posture of hating iron and not steel, Xu Wei looked up to the sky and sighed, bursting into tears.
"It's not that the little rabbit cub doesn't learn well, but he doesn't learn from me."
Tang Yi is confused now, Xu Wei is the top of today's learning, is there anything more intelligent? But don't be like that old boy, take the wrong path and it's over.
"Brother Wen, don't ramble. You're trying to kill me! β
Xu Wei also broke out and roared angrily: "You still ask me." I don't even know who to ask, Shen Lin's kid treats the article written by someone as a dog's head gold, holds it in his hand, and is stunned. Xu Wenchang's article is not as good as bullshit in the eyes of others, do you say I am depressed or not? Xu Wei couldn't hide his depression and grievances. is like a deep resentful woman, telling her inner dissatisfaction, and after finishing speaking, she gave Tang Yi a fierce look.
What does it have to do with me, Tang Yi suddenly exclaimed, "Brother Wen." Someone you're talking about can't be me, right? β
"Who else!" Xu Wei scolded: "Tang Xingzhi, can you read the things you wrote yourself?" How far away I smelled a sour smell, the words must be called Confucius and Mencius, the classics must be used in the Spring and Autumn Period, the grammar teacher from the Han and Wei dynasties, gorgeous and empty, there is nothing. The most annoying thing is that you still take Zhu Xi's annotations as a guideline, what is the difference between what is written like this and shit? Why doesn't God have vision, you were admitted to the head of the case as soon as you made a move, I have suffered for half my life, Xiucai is still rewarded by Lord Xue, why in the end! β
In the end, Xu Wei was hoarse, tears flowed from his eyes, and he held his head in pain, like an injured child. Xu Wei saw Tang Yi using traffic to call for wind and rain, so he was very envious, so he was willing to be a scholar for Tang Yi, but in terms of literary attainments, Xu Wei still has a strong self-confidence, which is almost the only thing he is proud of.
Since the beginning of the year, Tang Yi has been practicing Baguwen, and he will write three or four articles at most every day. Xu Wei has read it all, and it can be said that except for the handwriting, Xu Wei doesn't look down on the article at all, it is stale and empty, and he speaks for the ancients, without a trace of his own things. It's just such an article that can get the head of the case, which makes Xu Wei's self-esteem so shocked that he doesn't choose to speak.
When he said it, he regretted it, and his old face turned red suddenly, and he hurriedly explained: "Okay, I, I'm not a thing, I'm talking nonsense, I shouldn't look down on your article, I ......" Under the excitement, Xu Wei actually twitched his mouth.
Tang Yi stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm, and said in a serious voice: "Senior Brother Wen, not only you, even I don't like Bagu, and I don't believe in any saints' teachings. I dare to say that after a few hundred years, the articles and paintings that can be circulated in the world must be you, Xu Wenchang, not me, Tang Xingzhi, but the world is like this, and I have to bow my head. If you want to be famous, you have to restrain your edge and suppress your temperament, when I write articles, I also endure nausea, endure vomiting, I am telling myself, only endure for a while, can I have a lifetime. If you can't bear it now, you will be tired by the imperial examination for the rest of your life! β
Tang Yi stood up and patted Xu Wei on the shoulder.
"Brother Wen, if you are really cynical and have no intention of fame, I can help you get at ease, what you want to say, whatever you want to do, you will be satisfied. If you ......" Tang Yi paused and said: "If Senior Brother Wen really wants to be famous, he has to change his temperament, and it is not impossible to learn my articles, in short, if two people eat shit together, maybe it won't be so stinky!" β
The last sentence made Xu Wei laugh, tears came out, he stretched out his big hand suddenly, and Tang Yi firmly grasped it together, shaking and shaking.
β¦β¦
The candlelight flickered, Tang Yi took a few copies of Cheng Mo, and was pondering, as soon as the door opened, Xu Wei changed into his scholarly dress again, holding the manuscript, and smiled in front of Tang Yi.
"Okay, I'm here to eat with you!"
Saying that, Xu Wei really sat upright, took the article, and followed it with his head bowed and recited, and circled and dotted from time to time, all in all, whatever Tang Yi did, he would do.
At first, Xu Wei frowned, looking bitter and hateful, but gradually his brows stretched, as if he really realized the sage's subtle words, and imitated Tang Yi's style and wrote an article.
"Okay, do you think it's okay?"
Tang Yi took it, glanced at it a few times, and had to say that Xu Wei's writing was too terrifying, he was patient, and what he wrote really had seven or eight points of charm.
"Hahaha, Brother Wen, in order to reward you for changing your ways, I invite you to watch a good show."
"What's the show? Three Kingdoms or Water Margin? β
"In front of you!"
Tang Yi pulled Xu Wei, left the house, and rushed all the way to the backyard of Fengzhou Wine Shop and found Lei Qi. Seeing Tang Yi coming, Lei Qi hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Childe, I've figured it out, Wang Daochong is really not simple." β
As he spoke, Lei Qi told the bottom of the situation of the Wang family.
Although Wang Daochong's surname is Wang, he has nothing to do with Taicang Wang, his family is engaged in the silk business, at its peak, there are more than 200 looms, his family is wealthy, Wang Daochong is good at reading since childhood, and he is also famous. Originally, he and Tang Yi did not have any intersection, and the problem was after the opening of Yantietang.
Tang Yi's power is getting bigger and bigger, and most of the smart businessmen choose to blend in and get a piece of the pie. The Wang family is very conservative and refuses to change their family business. As a result, the Wang family's workshop gradually declined, and within a year, the weavers changed jobs one after another.
Wang Daochong's father was angry, fell ill and was bedridden, almost lost his old life, in order to treat the disease, the Wang family could only sell the loom to the workshop under Zhou Qinyun, in exchange for silver for his father's treatment.
During the most difficult period, Wang Daochong had to take out the valuable things at home and send them to the pawnshop for pawn.
Every time he stood under the high pawnshop counter, Wang Daochong was extremely resentful, he put all his anger on Tang Yi, what kind of salt and iron pond he was doing, it was he who supported Zhou Qinyun, and the Wang family would be defeated, and he counted every account on Tang Yi's head.
After listening to Lei Qi's introduction, Xu Wei couldn't help but gasp and sighed: "Okay, it turns out that you forced others to ruin their homes, and it's understandable to make you a little trouble!" β
Lei Qi hurriedly said: "Mr. Qingteng, you have misunderstood the son, the defeat of the Wang family is self-inflicted, their family cut corners, and used inferior raw silk collected from retail investors, and the quality of the silk woven is not up to par at all." In the past, Taicang was short of supply, and the people endured it, and our side developed, and it was natural for the people to abandon them. Miss Zhou personally went to the Wang family to discuss the merger, but they did not agree, and the result could only become more and more defeated. β
Tang Yi had a calm face, he didn't explain anything, and there was no need.
Just like in the future, with the development of e-commerce, physical stores will be impacted or even bankrupt. With the development of large-scale production, the family workshop will definitely not be able to sustain itself, and the metabolism is so cruel.
If Wang Daochong just complained, or even scolded a few words secretly, Tang Yi would not do anything to him. But he actually used the means of the next act to sabotage Tang Yi's imperial examination road, which is nothing to talk about.
Tang Yi just said lightly: "Wang Daochong's talent is not bad, if he is allowed to pass the test, he may not be admitted to the Jinshi and become a stumbling block in the future." Lei Qi, is there a way to kill Wang Daochong? β
This is called doing big things, only asking about the pros and cons, not about right and wrong, and it is very decisive! Xu Wei learned another trick.
Lei Qi smiled and said, "Childe, don't hide it, I found someone." β
"Who?"
"Wang Daochong's second aunt."
"Can she still deal with her nephew?"
"Hehe, nephew, the enemy is almost the same!" Lei Qi said with a smile: "When the Wang family annexed a piece of land, the owner of the land was beaten to death, the court asked for the guilt, the second uncle shouldered it, and was sentenced to be charged to the army, and he was gone for seven years, and then Wang Daochong's grandfather and father passed away one after another, he actually expelled the second aunt from the house and lived on the streets.
