Chapter 1520: The Three Young Masters of the Gao Family
After coming out of the fat shopkeeper, Goofy did not rush back to the inn, but wandered around the streets, looking for a place to buy books.
In the afternoon, Goofy visited several bookstores and bought a lot of books, but because there were too many books, he couldn't get them alone, so he paid someone to send them back to the inn.
"Fei'er, you're back...... Oh, why are there so many books?" Lin Rou was stunned: "You bought these books?"
"That's right. Goofy nodded: "I had a lot of trouble buying these books." "Speaking kung fu, Gao Fei picked up a book and flipped through it, at this time the powerful soul played a role, Gao Fei is almost ten lines at a glance, casually glance, you will keep the content of the book firmly in your mind, if you let others know that Gao Fei has this ability, you will definitely be shocked.
"You...... What are you doing with so many books? These books cost a lot of money, right?" Lin Rou said very distressedly.
"It's not much, it cost more than three hundred taels of silver. Goofy said casually.
"How much?" Lin Rou was taken aback: "How much did you say? More than three hundred taels of silver? God, I heard you right?"
"That's right, it's more than three hundred taels. Gao Fei put down the books and took out a handful of silver tickets from his arms: "My son went out today to earn seven hundred taels, and he still paid for more than three hundred taels of books, so you don't have to worry." Speaking of this, Gao Fei stuffed the silver ticket in his hand into Lin Rou's hand: "You can put it away, and you can buy whatever you want in the future." ”
"Seven hundred taels? You earned seven hundred taels in one day?" Lin Rou was stunned, she had lived for more than thirty years, and she didn't earn a total of seven hundred taels.
"Didn't I tell you? I paint in a shop, and after I sell it, I split it in half with the shopkeeper, and by the way, I have one more thing to tell you. Gao Fei pulled Lin Rou to sit down, and then poured Lin Rou a glass of water: "I decided to participate in the imperial examination." ”
"Imperial examination?" Lin Rou was stunned: "You buy these books and come back...... Just to participate in the imperial examination?"
"Yes. Gao Fei nodded: "My son wants to get ahead, he wants to take you to a good life, think about it, only by taking the road of the imperial examination can I truly realize my wish." ”
"You can have this ambition, my mother is very pleased, but it is very difficult to take the road of the imperial examination, don't say it, just say that you need to find someone to guarantee it to participate in the children's examination, otherwise you are not eligible to participate in the children's examination. ”
"Don't worry, I've already figured out a way, and in three days at most, I can get the qualification for the exam. ”
"Really?" Lin Rou's eyes lit up.
"Of course it's true, mother, you just wait to live a good life. A gleam flashed in Gao Fei's eyes: "I must make the Gao family pay a painful price, let Gao Changshou and Liu Wen kneel on the ground and kowtow to their mother to make amends!"
"You ......" Lin Rou felt a deep hatred from Gao Fei, which scared her: "Xiao Fei, calm down, don't be impulsive, the Gao family is very powerful, especially Liu Wen...... Her father is a county magistrate, and we can't afford to mess with her. ”
"Hmph!" Gao Fei sneered: "Isn't it just a county order? It's not a big deal, after my son and I win the champion, I can kill Liu Wen's father in a flash." ”
"What? Do you want to win the champion?" Lin Rou's eyes widened, she didn't expect Gao Fei's ambition to be so big, the champion is not so easy to win, first of all, it takes a lot of luck, and secondly, it needs a lot of strength: "That...... I often hear people say...... The champions are all the reincarnations of the Wenqu stars in the sky......"
"I am Wenqu Xing. Gao Fei smiled and said, "Mother, you just look at it, I will definitely get a champion back for you to see." ”
Lin Rou looked at her son with a confident face, her mouth opened and opened, and finally swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, she didn't want to hit her son's self-confidence, since her son wanted to win the champion, then encourage him and cheer him, so that his son could participate in the imperial examination with peace of mind.
For the next few days, Gao Fei stayed at home and stayed in his room to read, his way of reading books was different from others, others may not be able to read a book in a whole day, but Gao Fei can read dozens of books in a day, and memorize all the contents of the books in his head.
Three days later, Gao Fei finished reading all the books he bought, he stretched out his arms and stretched out a big lazy waist, then stood up and walked outside: "Mother, I went out to do some errands, and it is estimated that I will not be able to come back until the evening, so you don't have to wait for me to eat." ”
"You kid......" After Lin Rou heard the voice and came out of it, she found that Gao Fei had long since disappeared.
......
Gao Fei walked down the street with his hands behind his back, and it didn't take long to come to the fat shopkeeper's shop.
"Little sir, I guess you'll be here today. The fat shopkeeper warmly entertained Gao Fei, moved a chair for Gao Fei, and made tea for Gao Fei, and was very busy.
"Fat shopkeeper, how is the matter of purchasing the admission qualifications?"
"You still don't worry about my errands. The fat shopkeeper took out a piece of paper from the drawer and handed it to Gao Fei: "Oh, you can take this paper to participate in the children's life test, you can put it away, you will definitely lose it." ”
"Oh?" Gao Fei looked down and found that the paper read "Certificate of Qualification for the Tongsheng Entrance Examination", and the big seal of the county government was stamped underneath, "It's just such a piece of paper, it costs fifty taels?
"Don't underestimate this piece of paper. The fat shopkeeper said: "This piece of paper is expensive, with this piece of paper, you can go to the county government to participate in the children's exam, if you can pass the exam, you can get the identity of Xiucai, and you will be a real scholar in the future." ”
"When does the child test start?" Goofy asked.
"At the end of this month, there is still more than half a month to go, so you have to prepare well. The fat shopkeeper said with concern: "If you need help, just speak, I can help if I can, and find a way to help if I can't help." ”
"Thank you fat shopkeeper, take advantage of today's free, I'll paint a few more paintings, you don't have to sell them all at once, you have to know the truth that things are scarce, take out a few pieces a day and sell them slowly, which can not only arouse the interest of those customers, but also earn more silver taels." Gao Fei picked up the pen and began to paint, he only painted women, and they were all the kind of beauties with affection, half-exposed clothes, which made people reverie.
Gao Fei spent a whole day painting twenty paintings, tired wrists began to sore, Gao Fei put down the pen, gently moved his wrists, and sighed secretly in his heart, this body is too weak, painting a few paintings will be tired, and you will have to exercise more in the future.
"I'll leave these twenty paintings with you for the time being, and I'll come back in a little later to get the silver." After saying hello to the fat shopkeeper, Goofy stood up and left.
According to Gao Fei's instructions, the fat shopkeeper only took out two paintings a day to sell, and each time he could sell them at a very high price, and it took ten days for twenty paintings to be sold, and a total of three thousand eight hundred taels of silver were sold, and the fat shopkeeper was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
A few days later, the day before the children's exam was about to start, Gao Fei came to the fat shopkeeper's shop.
"Little sir, you can be counted, if you don't come again, I will go to you. The fat shopkeeper took out a stack of silver tickets: "This is the money from the last sale of the painting, a total of three thousand eight hundred taels were sold, and we divided half of it, each of which was one thousand nine hundred taels of silver." ”
"Well, good. Goofy put the silver ticket in his arms, then turned to leave.
"Little sir, please stay, since you are here, let's draw a few pictures, people come to the door every day to ask......" said the fat shopkeeper.
Gao Fei shook his head: "It's going to be a child's exam soon, I'm preparing for the exam every day, I'm not in the mood to paint, let's talk about it after the children's exam is over." ”
"Uh...... Well, the most important thing to participate in the children's examination ...... "Seeing that Gao Fei was unwilling to paint, the fat shopkeeper didn't say much, personally sent Gao Fei out of the store, and then watched Gao Fei leave, the fat shopkeeper hoped in his heart that Gao Fei would not be admitted, as long as Gao Fei broke off the idea of the imperial examination, he would help him paint wholeheartedly, and then the fat shopkeeper would be able to earn a lot of silver.
......
Gao family compound.
The lights are bright, the aroma of wine is overflowing, the laughter is continuous, and the red lanterns are specially hung at the gate, which is a joyful scene.
What day is it and why is the Gao family so festive?
Hey...... It's not a day, the reason why the Gao family is so lively is to cheer up the three young masters of the Gao family, because tomorrow the three young masters of the Gao family are going to participate in the children's life test, so they specially arranged a rich banquet tonight to celebrate.
Speaking of which, the three young masters of the Gao family are really too angry, the eldest young master has already participated in the children's examination five times, the second young master is one less than the eldest young master, he has participated in the children's examination four times, and the third young master has participated in the children's examination twice, without exception, the three of them have not been admitted, and the face of the Gao family has been lost.
Although they have been failing, the Gao family has not given up, to be precise, it is the master of the Gao family and the wife of the Gao family who are unwilling to give up, they are looking forward to the three sons can be admitted to Xiucai, and then they can participate in the examination of lifting people, once they get the title of lifting people back, they will be qualified to be officials...... As long as one of the three young masters is an official, the Gao family will be able to follow the soaring and eternal prosperity.
