Seeing Zhang Changshen looking at himself with suspicion, Wu Zong said: "You have also investigated the case, you should know that the Wei family didn't want to take the little junior sister back, and wanted to take the girl of the Xu family who looked two points similar to her home." Later, after being forced to take it back, he was beaten and scolded twice for three days. Don't give money to spend, whether she lives or dies. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that the Wei family was too much for the junior sister and didn't look like a mother and daughter at all, Mrs. Suiping and Mrs. Bo would not be suspicious and ask someone to investigate this matter. You also know that the Wei family has always been arrogant and domineering, and the old lady of Suiping can't control her. The little junior sister's life was difficult, and she really had no choice, so she had to go to the silver building in Bac Ninh to paint jewelry drawings for people. If you don't believe it, it's the one called Bao Zhai. ”

"Now that your background has been clarified, your little junior sister doesn't have to live such a life." Zhang Changshen comforted.

"Suiping Bofu was originally poor, and now that the family has been divided, there is no property." Wu Zongdao, "Now my little junior sister still goes to paint jewelry drawings for Yinlou." ”

"And how many of you go to learn to draw?" Zhang Changshen asked.

"Even me, together with the master and the second senior brother, twelve people. My sister didn't accept the three of us' silver, but my master forced it on her. As adults, we can't take advantage of children, right? What's more, my junior sister is so poor. ”

Zhang Chang calculated cautiously, and smashed his tongue again and again: "Your little junior sister, just like this, you earned 36,000 taels of silver, good guy!" ”

"Isn't it worth it? Three thousand taels of silver, no need to perform the teacher ceremony in front of people, three festivals and four gifts do not need to be sent every year, just learn such a very practical painting technique. If it were you, would you like to learn? Wu Zong glanced at Zhang Changshen.

Zhang Changshen pursed his lips and did not speak.

"Don't say it, my lord, these nine people were still selected by my master. His old man let out the wind, how many people in the capital want to learn? You also know that if a person learns this painting skill, it will not be a problem to go to our Dali Temple on an errand, right? Three thousand taels, what is it for a good future? ”

When he said this, Zhang Changshen also felt that three thousand taels was not much, it was simply too cheap.

You must know that in this capital, if you want a certain official position, even if you have 10,000 taels of silver, you may not be able to find a way.

The families in the capital want to get a good official position for their own children and grandchildren, let alone those rich families.

Thinking about it like this, Zhang Changshen was embarrassed.

In fact, if Zhao Ruxi didn't worship Kang Shilin as a teacher, Wu Zong was not her senior brother, and several people still protected her everywhere, Zhang Changshen didn't have to be embarrassed about this matter at all.

He only needs to wait for Wu Zong's return and let him teach the painters in the yamen. It doesn't matter how much you want to teach. It's a big deal, the three thousand taels of silver painted by Wu Zongxue came out of Dali Temple.

When the time comes, Zhao Ruxi will dare to have an opinion?

But now it's hard.

He sighed and said, "Lord Wu, you see, our yamen needs such a painter very much. Although you have gone to study, you can't be asked to paint portraits whenever a case occurs in the future, right? You are Dali Temple. Why don't you wait until you learn it, and teach us the painters in the yamen? People from the yamen from all over the country also let them come and learn it? ”

Wu Zong smiled: "Okay, I'll ask my master, if he agrees, I'll have no problem." Who called me an official of Dali Temple? My lord, if you give me an order, how dare I disobey? ”

"Don't, don't." As soon as he heard the name of Mr. Kang Shilin, Zhang Changshen's scalp was numb.

He didn't want to see Mr. Kang blocking his door and cursing tomorrow.

"Lord Wu, Brother Wu, I was just joking with you just now, don't tell Mr. Deadwood. Just because I didn't say it. Yes, I didn't say anything just now. ”

Wu Zong didn't speak, just quietly watched his boss play tricks.

Zhang Changshen was thick-skinned, and he turned the page about what he had just done by talking to himself, and asked with a comfortable demeanor: "Then what do you think?" You are also an official of Dali Temple. You know how much we need this kind of drawing skill to handle cases. Let's take this incident as an example, if there is no painting skill of Miss Zhao, even if there is Sun Jiawang's witness, I am afraid that no one will be caught. As a Dali Temple, you have learned painting skills, so you can't embarrass everyone, right? ”

"So what do you say?" Wu Zong asked rhetorically.

He is well versed in bargaining: he can't take the initiative to reduce the price, and Zhang Changshen has to take the initiative to export. And you can't promise to be happy, otherwise the other party will think that you have taken advantage of him, and then think about it, and feel frustrated.

You have to push around and make all kinds of embarrassments. In the end, I really couldn't face it, so I reluctantly agreed. In this way, the other party feels that he has taken advantage of you, so he is comfortable and satisfied.

Therefore, although the master gave a reserve price, for the sake of Master Zhang's physical and mental health, he could not happily agree to this matter.

He is such a good subordinate, where to find him.

"Our Dali Temple is poor......" Zhang Changshen first said the difficulties of asking for money everywhere in Dali Temple, and cried a little poor, and then showed his price, "Look, how about a thousand taels of silver alone?" ”

Wu Zong listened patiently, and then said seriously: "Actually, our Dali Temple is not out of money, the money from the sale of the property of the criminal official, take out a little, it is enough for us to train a few more painters." As for those sent by the local government to learn painting, they naturally let them pay for it themselves. Or ......"

He glanced out of the door and lowered his voice: "Let them come to one place for one person, four thousand taels of silver." As for whether they teach others or not after they go back, we don't care. It's impossible for my master and sister to know, right? As for our yamen, we don't need to pay any money at all, we can move some money from the place to make up for it, and that's enough. There are twelve people from the place, and our Dali Temple can send four people to learn painting. Three thousand taels of silver apiece, no problem. Hello, I'm hello, everyone, right? ”

As soon as he said this, Zhang Changshen looked at him with a vigilant gaze: "You kid, even your master and sister dare to pit." These three thousand taels of silver, aren't they also cheating you and me? ”

Wu Zong immediately straightened his face and stood up: "In that case, then you go and talk to my master." So saying, he walked out.

"Come back, come back, okay, okay, I promise you."

Wu Zong turned his head: "You have to report my three thousand taels of silver?" ”

"Report, report." Zhang Changshen nodded.

"Last but not least, my junior sister collects money to teach these people to draw, and you can't let her be infamous for it. She has just taught people here, and there is an impeachment of Yushi over there, not only confiscating her money, but also sending her to prison. We can't do this kind of tasteless thing! ”
