Chapter 208: Take the sheep by the hand
"What will the literati who are always thinking about how to cling to the powerful and powerful? If the senior brother participates in this exchange meeting, the position of the leader will be effortless. ”
The glamorous junior sister beside Wuchen deeply thought of what Wuchen said, the secular literati were too bad, how could they have the slightest talent of Senior Brother Wuchen.
"It's hard to produce a literary wizard in the world......"
Wuchen gently pinched the beautiful woman's buttocks and shook his head in disappointment.
He was very disappointed with the literati who participated in the poetry exchange conference this time, let alone looking for geniuses, and so far he couldn't even find a literati who had a little eye.
As for Lin Yu, it's a little bit good, but he has become a lackey of the Great Xia Imperial Court, and it is impossible for him to be used by the academy.
At the same time, the results of the preliminary examination of the officials of Mayang County were officially released, and only a few twelve poems were good, and the others were simply unsightly, and the talent contained in them was also as light as nothing.
The faces of many literati were extremely red, as if they were constipated.
Only those more than 20 students who have fame have the most calm expressions, and they can get the fame of students, which is enough to show his poetry skills.
The first paragraph of the poetry exchange conference is the screening stage, and the top talents in the seven counties are actually the ones who really communicate, and other literati also come to join in the fun and support the scene.
At least there are many people from a certain county, which proves that there are many literati who can handle it, and indirectly proves that the county guards are well governed and talented people come out in large numbers.
"Lin Gongzi, presumably among these twelve poems, there must be a share of yours, right?" the young student in front of Lin Yu turned around and asked.
Lin Yu gently shook the folding fan and said with a smile: "That's nature." ”
The young student paused for a moment, but he didn't expect Lin Yu to really not know modesty, so he smiled at this and said, "I hope so." ”
"If you don't think about it, 80,000 taels of silver and a poem may make you a dark horse. Lin Yu couldn't help but bewitch again.
The white-faced young student shook his robe, gritted his teeth and said, "Sven sweeps the floor, this student is ashamed to be with you." ”
Lin Yu touched his nose, it seemed that it was not a simple job to get money from a student, and he couldn't help but look at this person a few times.
People who treat money like dung are simply too rare.
However, the next moment, Lin Yu couldn't help but slap himself twice, only to see the young student in front of him, sneakily turning his head, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito fly: "How about 30,000 taels of silver......?
“......”
Lin Yu looked at the embarrassed student in a daze, it turned out that the other party did not regard money as dung, but was shy in his pocket.
"There's no way around it, Elder Yan is about to open the book, and he can't do it without 100,000 taels......"
Lin Yu didn't believe that the guy in front of him who became a student at a young age only took out 30,000 taels of silver.
"You are taking advantage of the fire to rob, you and I are both literati in the same county, we should help each other outside, how about 40,000 taels of silver?"
The student's forehead was already oozing with sweat, and he was very worried that as a student, he would not even be able to pass the first examination of the poems he made.
At that time, the county guard may cut his reputation, just like Song Chengzhu, the shopkeeper in the drunken fairy building, not only the student's reputation is gone, but even the restaurant has not been kept, and he will end up with both people and money.
"One hundred thousand taels of silver, the poem of this son is yours, you know, if you can't even pass this first paragraph, you're a student's fame, I'm afraid it's a little hanging......"
Lin Yu pouted at the twelve-volume poems on the long table on the stage, and said in a straight voice: "Time is running out, if you don't need it, presumably the two students in front of you are rushing to get it......."
"I don't have that much silver on me......," the young student frowned.
"How many are there?" Lin Yu said.
"Three thousand taels of silver tickets...... the young student said a little embarrassed.
Lin Yu's eyes lit up, nodded and said, "Then three thousand taels of silver, if this son is not short of money now, he really won't sell it to you without one hundred thousand taels." ”
"Lin Gongzi is a good person. ”
The young man's eyes lit up, for fear that Lin Yu would regret it, so he quickly reached into his arms, took out two silver tickets with a face value of one thousand taels, stuffed them into Lin Yu's sleeves, and said with a straight face: "Later, your poems are the students'...... Have you signed your poems?"
The young student's body trembled, and then he thought of this crucial question, if Lin Yu was named, then what does his poetry have to do with him?
Could it be that he stood up and explained that he was confused for a while, wrote Lin Yu's name, and then asked Lin Yu to nod in cooperation?
I'm afraid a fool won't believe such a frustrating trick.
Lin Yu smiled and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, my son has never had the habit of signing poems when writing poems, otherwise I wouldn't have sold the poems to you...... Later, you just stand up and admit it. ”
"Really?"
The young student's spirit was shocked, there are still such good things waiting for him in this world?
"Lin Zi signboard, Tong Su is not bullied, you go to Wuling County to inquire, who doesn't know that this son is the most honest?" Lin Yu said.
This is not wrong, although Lin Yu loves money a little, but from the beginning, except for putting Zhou Yuankeng in prison, he really has never done anything dishonest.
It's almost a gentleman's words, and the horse is hard to chase.
The student also knew that there was no scandal in Wuling County that Lin Yu had not believed in his words, so he was completely relieved.
Seeing that the student was relieved, the corners of Lin Yu's mouth also raised slightly, and he received three thousand taels of silver in just a few words, which can be called a model of holding sheep by hand, and then he will be able to stay in Mayang County for a while.
Although he brought a lot of silver this time, it was actually enough for normal expenses, after all, almost all the other silver went into the yamen account room, and the few thousand taels of silver that he used were originally from Cao Bai.
"Later, the poet immortal Li Bai's 'Qingping tune' comes out, if he really dares to admit it, this son will obey him......"
The corners of Lin Yu's mouth outlined a subtle arc.
The reason why he didn't write his name was that he didn't have a thick face to the point of plagiarizing the poet's poem and signing his own name, so he didn't write his name directly.
And the student in front of him, if he really dared to admit that he wrote the Qingping tone, Lin Yu would definitely throw himself into the five bodies that this person admired.
If it is an ordinary poem, forget it, after all, no one will squeeze their heads to grab him, and even they will help him.
But this poem is the pure tone of the poet immortal Li Bai......
"Bring it on!"
With a wave of the Great Elder of the Banquet Pavilion of the Book Pavilion, the four officials presented the twelve volumes of poems and carefully placed them on the table of the Great Elder of the Banquet.
The twelve volumes, representing the romantic figures of this poetry exchange conference, are much inferior to the past.
