Chapter 45 The Deal Is Finalized
Xu Yuanzuo came out of the small flower hall, and his demeanor was very different. It didn't look like he had been examined, but it was like he had been baptized. This is not because he has an essential epiphany about the study of mind, but because he has finally come into contact with the top figures of the Ming Dynasty.
Xu Jie and He Xinyin.
If the characters he saw in his daily contemplation and analysis were a kind of monster-fighting upgrade, then everyone was just a monster before. And Xu Jie and He Xinyin are the ultimate giants in this world. Especially Xu Jie, as deep as the sea, for such a person, it is impossible to judge by good and evil.
"Brother Xu, please stay." An unfamiliar voice woke Xu Yuanzuo.
Xu Yuanzuo stopped to look, but saw a young man in Tsing Yi standing in front of him.
said that he was a little girl, but he was also thirty years old.
With just a glance, Xu Yuanzuo recognized that this person's identity was definitely not an ordinary squire's servant, but a servant of a giant eunuch with an official spirit and a little bit of killing.
"Brother, please advise." Xu Yuanzuo bowed and said.
The little guy was a little surprised, took a step back and returned the salute, took out a seven-inch long and three-inch wide name card from his sleeve, and said: "My lord ordered this post to be given to Brother Xu. β
Xu Yuanzuo hurriedly bowed down to take it, and when he looked at it, the name of "Tang Jilu" was written on it. If you don't know the magnitude of this person's origin, just look at the fact that there is no official name listed on it, you will be mistaken for a hermit. However, Xu Yuanzuo is a scholar for a while after all, if he doesn't even know who Tang Jilu is, then it really can't be said.
This person is a Jinshi in the 32nd year of Jiajing, from Sui'an Zhi County, Zhejiang, because of his excellent political performance, he was promoted to supervise the imperial history, and patrolled Huguang. After the promotion of Dali Temple, Xuan and Jin Shaoqing, and then promoted to the imperial history of Caojiang Nanjing, and finally the prime minister of Shanxi and other tunyan right deputy capital imperial history. On the seventh day of July this year, he returned to his hometown in Shanghai slightly earlier than Xu Jie.
It turns out that this person is also here today, but I don't know which one of them is in the flower hall just now.
Xu Yuanzuo went through the many old men he had seen just now, and sighed that the people who could be distinguished by the three grades were really not obvious. Among those people just now, they all looked like squires and rich men, and they were approachable. The only exception is He Xinyin, who looks like an old farmer. And if these people report their fame, they know that they are the strongmen who control the general trend of the world.
"It turns out that the vice constitution was also on the table just now, disrespectful, disrespectful." Xu Yuanzuo hesitated for a moment: "Is this too precious?" β
The little guy smiled and said, "Are you saying that my master doesn't know people?" He saw that Xu Yuanzuo could call the title of the master, and knew that he was not perfunctory, so he made jokes because he had a good impression.
Xu Yuanzuo hurriedly put away the name post: "Thanks to the vice constitution's wrong love, how dare you refrain from the elder's gift, Xiao Ke has the courage to accept it." β
The little guy smiled again, took the initiative to bow, and took his leave.
Xu Yuanzuo took a long breath, took out the post and looked at it, and said secretly in his heart: There is no anti-counterfeiting design at all, and no one knows if it is really used to deceive. He immediately thought of the many fraud stories of the Ming and Qing dynasties he had seen, among which there were really legendary deeds of forging famous posts, pretending to be students, and even being exposed in front of a party's government.
After relaxing his mind a little, Xu Yuanzuo went to the Winter Garden again.
Those big families haven't left yet, waiting for Xu Yuanzuo to come back.
Xu Yuanzuo knew what they wanted to ask, but he didn't bother to tell them, he just took out Tang Jilu's name card and fanned it in his hand, as if he had no intention of saying to Luo Zhenquan: "Tang Vice Xian gave a name post, which is really polite." β
Of course, Luo Zhenquan understood, and then pretended to 'beep' and said: "It's just a vice-constitution, I'm afraid I won't need it." He actually didn't know what the status of "Tang Vice Xian" was, he heard that he was like a big official, and he was afraid that he would be cowardly if he said it wrong, but fortunately, in front of Xu Ge Lao, all the bureaucrats were slight, so he simply spoke louder.
The squires present are all from Songjiang Mansion, and Tang Jilu is also the first-class eunuch in Shanghai, where will he not recognize him? After listening to these two people singing and harmonizing, they were just shocked.
Xu Yuanzuo turned to many big households and said, "You guys are really catching up with a good time." He coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "From now on, this Xia Wei New Garden will hold a meeting." Those who want to join the club must not only be recommended by five members, but also have a clear family reputation and good character, so that they can press five hundred taels of silver on the cabinet and be regarded as a member. β
When the big families saw that Xu Yuanzuo came back, the whole person was different, and they fanned the wind with the name of a high-ranking official of the third grade, which was as dazzling as a halo. Think about it again, Xu Yuanzuo just asked for a hundred taels and persuaded with good words, and now the lion's big mouth is five hundred taels! is so justified and arrogant, stipulating what "the family has a clear voice and a good character", as if he was afraid that people would come to stuff the silver.
Is there no story in this?
Therefore, those who are deceived are smart people.
Xu Yuanzuo didn't say anything, they had already analyzed a large story based on various clues. Some people think that it must be Xu Ge's face-to-face teaching, and some people believe that it is the Songjiang family that wants to deposit silver and buy shares, anyway, they are making a big fuss in their hearts, but no one will say it on the spot.
Of course, even if they asked, Xu Yuanzuo would not give a definite and affirmative answer.
"Looks like everyone guessed it." Xu Yuanzuo said with a smile: "Xiao Ke congratulates all the masters, using one hundred taels to do five hundred taels, which is a lot of value-added." β
The heart that has signed the contract is naturally happy, and at the same time, he can't help but slander Xu Yuanzuo for being naΓ―ve and ignorant: This little fat man obviously didn't count the favor account! And in the future, just by introducing others to join the club, most of them will have an income of dozens of taels of silver.
Those who had hesitated to sign the contract also stepped forward one after another, hoping to enjoy the treatment just now. Among them, Qian Yuanwai is the leader. Just now he thought that his family was in the raw silk business, and he had little to do with the Xu family, and the prestige he borrowed was of limited use, so he was reluctant to give up the hundred taels of silver for a while, so he missed it.
At this time, he stepped forward and grabbed Xu Yuanzuo, squeezed out a smile and said, "Little brother, please be accommodating." β
Xu Yuanzuo looked at him and said, "Except for the money clerk, if you are accommodating one in this matter, you have to accommodate ten...... I just ate the old man's banging ......"
"Little brother, my son is going to get married within the year, and I really can't open it at home!" Qian Yuanwai said in a deep voice, while taking out a small silver ingot of five taels: "This is for the little brother to eat tea." β
Xu Yuanzuo's heart involuntarily beat more.
The so-called people are poor and short-minded, and they know the importance of wealth only when they have enough of the hardships of having no money!
"Outside the money clerk, this is not a matter of silver...... Xu Yuanzuo pushed, instantly catching a touch of determination in the eyes of the money clerk.
- This guy must be trying to bypass me to find Xu Sheng!
Xu Yuanzuo did his homework day and night, and his observation of words and expressions also reached a certain level, and he pressed Qian Yuanwai's arm: "Outside the staff, I really want to help." But it's not money that can call the shots. β
"Then who can call the shots?" Qian Yuanzuo was not yet wary of Xu Yuanzuo, and he exposed his mind when he asked casually.
Xu Yuanzuo said: "This matter is in charge of the housekeeper Xu Gongcheng, and he is also the big shopkeeper in this industry." β
Qian Yuanwai had a relationship with Xu Sheng, but he had never heard of Xu Cheng, so he couldn't help frowning.
"In this way," Xu Yuanzuo took a step back, as if embarrassed, "It's better to write a piece of paper, just say the feelings of the hometown, there is really a need to borrow it, I will go and talk to Xu Cheng and Xu Steward, and then take your handwritten letter to find the uncle." My Xu family is a famous heirloom, and I will never refuse this bit of adult beauty. β
Qian Yuan said in his heart: Not to mention whether you can join the club and borrow the garden, just having correspondence with Xu Fan and Xu Daguan is also a matter of identity!
"Okay, I'll write it now." The money clerk immediately said.
A few old men who were eavesdropping behind shouted: "We also have something important, please pass on the book!" β
Xu Yuanzuo smiled: "Since you have a heart, I will also let it go!" Then go to the big shopkeeper and ask him to ask the uncle to relax, as long as the people who come today will come according to the previous preferential treatment! β
The crowd applauded.
It's that there is a lot of injustice among those who signed the contract before, and they feel that if they take advantage, they will suffer a loss.
Xu Yuanzuo walked up to them and deliberately whispered, "I can't afford to lose the trust of your masters. I've heard that your invitations cost a lot of money, so you might as well write down the purchase price on your invitations, and I will never go out of the account to offset them in the future. β
"How much?" Someone asked.
"If you spend a hundred taels, I will give you a hundred taels." Xu Yuanzuo chuckled lightly and stepped out of the crescent moon gate.
