The idea of how much a donkey is worth is vague.

According to the price of goods in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the price of a good horse at that time was about twelve taels of silver, and a donkey was about six taels.

During the Hongzhi period, Yang Yiqing, the trilateral general system, was ordered by the emperor to vigorously develop horse politics to ensure the military and civilian use of horses, mules and donkeys, so the market price of mules and horses in the private sector was relatively stable.

However, a donkey worth six taels of silver still made the onlookers very excited.

Taizu had strictly ordered the people to prohibit gambling and entertainment activities such as Guan Pu, and the offenders were guilty, but the people of the country were good at gambling by nature, and they were repeatedly banned, and the benevolence of today's Hongzhi Tianzi was quite popular, and the law did not work, and the government also turned a blind eye.

Shaoxing is located in the rich land of the south of the Yangtze River, the reason why the south of the Yangtze River is rich, in addition to the unique soil climate and geographical location, there is also a reason that the people of Jiangnan are good at accepting new things, the people here are open, the concept is advanced, and the bold is bold, just imagine that Emperor Taizu issued a ban on the sea, strictly ordered the board not to go to the sea, but the Zhejiang merchants in the south of the Yangtze River still violated the yang and the yin, and secretly built merchant ships to trade with Japan, Korea and the Ryukyus, which is what a heroic spirit of asking for money and not dying.

Therefore, for Qin Kan's so-called "lottery" activity, the audience showed great interest.

What can two coins of silver do in Shaoxing Mansion? Maybe it can make a pot of fresh pre-rain Longjing in the tea shop, maybe it can eat a medium-grade meal in the Yuchun Building, and now, it may be able to exchange it for a donkey worth six taels of silver......

After all the calculations, people feel that spending two dollars of silver is not a loss.

After a brief silence, the crowd of onlookers gradually boiled.

"Wu Na Housheng, give you silver, I'll draw a ......"

"I'll do it too!"

“…………”

“…………”

Qin Kan stood in front of the box, watching countless hands hand over the two coins of silver that had been weighed, countless hands reaching into the box and feeling out a ball of paper, of course, there were countless sighs and unwilling ...... Renewal?

Qin Kan smiled, smiling sweetly.

The arms were heavy, filled with all kinds of scattered silver, roughly estimated, about twenty taels, and the robes were bulging, but the smile on Qin Kan's face was like a peach blossom in March, blooming more and more.

Du Yan on the side was stunned and watched all this, her beautiful apricot eyes were full of disbelief, and her little red mouth opened wide and didn't close for a long time.

In the hustle and bustle, Qin Kan took the time to turn his head and grin at her: "Do you feel that you admire me very much, but you don't want to admit it?" ”

Du Yan's small mouth closed in vain, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said disdainfully: "What is there to admire about this......"

She closed her mouth before she finished speaking, and she suddenly realized that Qin Kan's question was very tricky, and no matter how she answered, she was in his way.

Glaring at him with hatred, Du Yan sneered: "Don't be too happy, there are still more than a hundred paper balls left in the box, in case someone wins the prize now, no one will buy your more than 100 paper balls......"

Qin Kan glanced at her indifferently, and while the onlookers were not paying attention, he quietly took out a paper ball from his sleeve, and calmly flickered in front of her eyes, and then the paper ball disappeared into his sleeve at a magical speed.

Du Yanxing's eyes blinked, then she reacted and gasped.

"You...... You ...... that winning paper ball" Du Yan was so angry that her face turned red.

"Shh......h Blocking people's wealth is like killing your parents, you won't be so lacking in morality, right? Qin Kan lowered his voice.

Du Yan clenched her fists angrily: "You are so despicable! Fooling so many people ......"

"One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer, and there is no need to take things so seriously."

"Aren't you afraid that I will expose you?"

Qin Kan's eyebrows did not move: "Don't be afraid, if you dare to expose it, I will say that we are a partnership.........,

"You ......"

Qin Kan sighed and said: "As the saying goes, it's hard to buy a thousand gold, you see these people, they are so elated after spending only two dollars of silver, looking at the world, where can they find such a cheap thing?" They should thank me for ......"

Du Yan only felt that her breath was blocked in her chest and she couldn't get out, and she gritted her silver teeth and said: "'It's hard to buy a daughter' is a common saying that which bastard said?" ”

Qin Kan, who was about to make a fortune, was in a good mood at the moment, pointed at himself with a thumb, and said with a smile: "Of course it's me who said it." ”

Du Yan was speechless, she deeply felt that the seemingly weak scholar in front of her must have been shameless by the masters of the rivers and lakes......

The purchasing power of Jiangnan people is amazing, the work of two pillars of incense, the paper ball in the box is about to be sold out, and when there are still more than a dozen paper balls, Qin Kan threw the winning paper ball into the box without a trace.

After a while, a thin middle-aged scholar suddenly jumped up, looked up to the sky and smiled: "Hit!" Hit! I bought it! ”

The middle-aged scholar rushed to Qin Kan excitedly, showed him the winning paper ball, and said hurriedly: "Look, look!" Am I hit? ”

On the paper ball, a pig's head with Qin Kan's painting style was smiling honestly at him.

Qin Kan hurriedly arched his hand and said sincerely: "The big prize among the brothers, it is really gratifying......

When the onlookers heard that the prize had been drawn, they immediately let out a long sigh of regret, and then dispersed in twos and threes.

The middle-aged scholar held a pig's head high, hunting in the wind like a flag, and laughed like a madman: "Good omen, good omen!" Finally let a certain come out on top......"

Qin Kan sighed and muttered, "It's just a prize, why do you say that it's like a prostitute who has broken the body of a prostitute?" ”

Du Yan squinted at Qin Kan, she was waiting for the next development.

Won the lottery, what about the donkey?

The middle-aged scholar rushed over with lightning speed and shouted excitedly at Qin Kan: "Donkey! ”

Qin Kan's expression became very serious: "Please respect my personality, I am not a donkey." ”

"Isn't the prize a donkey? What about donkeys? The middle-aged scholar was obviously a little incoherent.

Qin Kan subconsciously glanced at Du Yan.

Du Yan's head was full of corpses, clenched his fists and roared: "Don't look at me!" I'm not a donkey either! ”

Qin Kan looked at the scholar for a long time, and said slowly: "Brother Tai, do you want to lead the donkey back or discount?" ”

The middle-aged scholar danced excitedly: "It doesn't matter, the important thing is the omen, I am the only one among hundreds of people, and the heavens will live up to me in the spring of the new year." ”

Qin Kan nodded.

See, people want signs, not prizes.

Why can a gentleman deceive him? Because people who read are stupid, especially the kind of gentleman who wants to be a jinshi.

"The market price of a donkey is six ...... No, five taels of silver, you can take the five taels of silver here. Qin Kan happily counted five taels of silver from his arms and gave it to him.

The middle-aged scholar took the silver, put it in his arms casually, and turned around and left happily.

Du Yan sighed heavily: "Look at the sins you created, fooled hundreds of people, and the one who won the lottery was almost made crazy by you......"

"Miss Du, you use the word 'get' to make me very uncomfortable......

Qin Kan took out a large handful of broken silver from his arms, made up about twenty taels or so and handed it to Du Yan: "I mean what I say, I have collected the twenty taels of silver that the government fined me, and I will hand it over to you." ”

Du Yan was just about to take the silver from him, but Qin Kan suddenly shrank his hand: "Slow!" Write a receipt! ”

Du Yan couldn't cry or laugh: "You don't believe me like this? ”

Qin Kan said with a serious face: "Forgive me for my straightforwardness, trusting the second generation of officials is cruel to yourself...... We don't know each other, and I don't want us to be too familiar in the future, so it's better to follow the procedure in everything. ”…,

Du Yan glanced at him fiercely, borrowed a pen and paper from a letter stall on the street, and wrote down a receipt like a dragon flying and a phoenix.

Du Yan's words are very beautiful, the words are like her person, handsome and free with a bit of masculinity, and there is a restless taste between the lines, every word is like an elf, dancing in the moonlight.

"Take it!" Du Yan threw the receipt at Qin Kan fiercely, and took the silver unceremoniously with the other hand.

Qin Kan took the receipt into his arms like a treasure, and his face was not very good-looking.

In the face of a woman who brings him endless trouble, any man's face will not be too good-looking, trouble is always trouble, no matter how beautiful he looks, it is just a beautiful trouble.

Qin Kan hates trouble.

"Miss Du, let's clear the two of us, and we will go our separate ways in the future, and we won't provoke each other, okay?"

Du Yan said angrily: "Do you think I rarely provoke you? ”

Qin Kan smiled dryly: "It's good if it's not rare, there is really no place in Xia that is worth the rarity of girls." ”

Since they are tired of each other, the two naturally have nothing to say.

Qin Kan checked the remaining silver in his arms, and estimated that there were still more than a dozen taels left, which made him overjoyed.

Well, the unlucky time has passed, the government's fine has been paid, and the dozen taels of silver that were stolen yesterday have also been recovered.

It is still the eternal truth that wise people cannot starve to death no matter where they are.

After being alone for a long time, Qin Kan suddenly turned his head: "Why don't you leave?" ”

Du Yan snorted angrily: "Is the road in the city your family's?" You don't care if I can go or not! ”

Qin Kan sighed and muttered to her a third conclusion.

"In addition to being cruel and having a low moral bottom line, this woman is also very thick-skinned......"

The two walked for a while one after the other, Qin Kan stopped, Du Yan also stopped, Qin Kan left, Du Yan also left, she puffed out her cheeks, staring at Qin Kan's back with hatred, which made Qin Kan feel a chill down her spine.

It's a weird feeling, it's like being targeted by a dog carrying meat and bones, and then following all the way......

Fortunately, this awkward and strange relationship did not last long.

After taking a few steps, Qin Kan's shoulder was patted, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was the middle-aged scholar who won the prize just now.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Qin Kan raised his eyebrows.

The middle-aged scholar's eyes were a little hollow, and from just now until now, he was a little nervous.

"Just now, I won the paper ball...... What's drawn on it? The scholar's face was full of curiosity.

"The prize has been cashed out, you don't care what it draws."

The scholar shook his head, with a stubborn insistence: "No, show me that paper ball again......"

Qin Kan happily took out the paper ball with a pig's head painted and handed it to him, this person looks a little abnormal, crazy people are like women, they all represent trouble, there is already a trouble around him that can't be shaken off, Qin Kan doesn't want to have another trouble.

The scholar unfolded the paper ball, on which a very abstract cartoon pig's head was smiling at him.

The scholar looked at it for a long time, then suddenly gasped and shouted: "Woohoo! What is it? Ugly me! ”

Damn it......

The gentle Qin Kan suddenly wanted to scold the street.

Du Yan, who had been following Qin Kan, sneered, and then Ha Lu Ha Da Lu, who had no scruples about his demeanor, laughed.

Qin Kan glared at the scholar with an unkind expression: "What do you mean?" ”

The scholar didn't even look at him, two fingers were holding the corner of the paper, the other hand was pinching his nose, and the expression on his face was as if he had been fed a piece of, and he almost vomited it on the spot.

This expression was more hurtful than pointing at his nose and scolding his mother, and smoke began to rise above Qin Kan's head.

The scholar was visibly blind, and he was overwhelmed by the grief of the deformed pig's head......

Pointing to Du Yan, who was smiling indiscriminately, the scholar was full of confusion, and asked coldly, "Are you painting her?" ”…,

Du Yan's unbridled laughter suddenly suffocated, as if someone had suddenly choked her neck, and her whole face instantly turned blue and purple.

Qin Kan couldn't help laughing and replied solemnly: "No, I painted ......"

"Ahh Could it be a donkey? The scholar suddenly became disgusted, and then his disgust became even worse: "Is this a donkey?" Can a donkey grow like this? ”

As soon as Qin Kan opened his mouth, the scholar interrupted him with an indignant face: "How can a donkey draw like this? Everything in the world has its own god form, and you are blaspheming all things! ”

This guy didn't know what he was doing, he actually carried a pen and ink cartridge with him, and no matter what expressions Qin Kan and Du Yan had, he squatted down and began to modify the pig's head picture on the side of the street.

With a few additions, a good abstract pig's head was changed to a donkey's head by the scholar, the donkey's two ears drooped, and the donkey's face was long, lifelike, and quite charming.

Qin Kan and Du Yan couldn't help but be amazed.

The scholar looked left and right for a long time, then nodded with satisfaction, slapped the painting on Qin Kan's chest very rudely, and said angrily: "See? That's what a donkey is called! The one you drew is a pig! ”

Qin Kan touched his nose and said calmly: "What I just drew was originally a pig ......"

The scholar was stunned, staring at Qin Kan for a long time, and suddenly bent down and coughed violently.

Qin Kan squinted his eyes and smiled.

Although this guy looks a little abnormal, he doesn't seem to be a bad person......

Arching his hand, Qin Kan asked politely, "Haven't you asked your godbrother Taigao's name yet?" ”

"Ahem, ahem...... I, Tang Yin in Suzhou, the word Bohu, alas! ”

"Cough cough cough ......" This time it was Qin Kan's turn to cough, and the cough was even worse than Tang Yin.

PS: Collection, Recommended...... I must remind you every day, I am worried that everyone has a bad memory......
