If Fang Yizhi hadn't taken the initiative to talk about it, Ivan would have almost forgotten about it.

Among the four sons of the late Ming Dynasty, Fang Yizhi is not as good as Mao Xiang, but he is good at other aspects.

Fang Yizhi was a famous thinker, philosopher, and scientist in the late Ming Dynasty!

It is mentioned in Fang Yizhi's materials that he is well-read and travels extensively, and among his fellow students, there are even Western missionaries Bi Fangji and John Tang, who read Western books in his interactions with Western missionaries, and from them, Fang Yizhi learned and understood modern Western natural science.

For these materials, Ivan originally didn't pay too much attention to them, because Fang Yizhi was not his mission goal.

But Dong Xiaowan's unintentional sentence seemed to have brought him a lot of trouble.

Fang Yizhi took his hand and refused to let go.

"Yi Gongzi, can we find a place to sit down, I want to ask you about Western things?"

Ivan: "......"

My identity as a Western returnee is fake, how can I stand up to your advice?

Who said that I also went to university, and I have a fairly good understanding of some basic knowledge of Europe, and the basic natural sciences are not a problem, but now Europe is medieval Europe!

There is a big difference between the two, okay!

"I'm afraid it won't be today, I still have to find a place to stay nearby with Miss Dong. ”

He hurriedly shirked it.

Alas, it seems that after the dungeon is out, I have to do some homework again!

Unfortunately, it backfired.

He wants to shirk it, but others may not agree.

Mao Xiangxian exclaimed, "What's the matter, Miss Dong is leaving the Qin Tower?"

"Yi Gongzi said, ready to take me out of the Qin Tower. ”

It was Dong Xiaowan who answered.

"And what about your family's debts?"

Mao Xiang asked again.

Ivan: "......"

Oh, it turns out that you know that Dong Xiaowan is in huge debt?

Then you don't take the initiative to help her, and you want to beat her up, isn't that a bit unkind?

However, he remembered that although Mao Xiang's family background was okay, every time he traveled, most of the silver was spent on eating, drinking, and prostitution, and he didn't have so much silver in his hands.

Thinking about it, even if they had more silver, 1,500 taels of silver would be enough for them to enter and exit the land of fireworks hundreds of times, and ordinary people really couldn't make up their minds to come up with so much silver at once.

Ivan calculated that 1,500 taels of silver, if compared with prices, would be at least equivalent to millions in later generations.

Dong Xiaowan blushed and said softly: "Regarding the debt, I have Yi Gongzi to help me." ”

Mao Xiang was immediately extremely lost.

After the last meeting, he did have a good impression of Dong Xiaowan, who was talented and good-looking, but he had already heard about the Dong family's debts from Fang Yizhi, and he was in a hurry to travel this time, so he didn't bring so much silver, so he was embarrassed to show his heart to Dong Xiaowan.

Can ...... now Dong Xiaowan was actually helped by someone else, how could he not be disappointed?

He glanced at Ivan in disbelief, and thought, this person is dressed so shabby, dressed as a little girl, is he really capable of helping Dong Xiaowan?

Fang Yizhi said: "Congratulations, Yi Gongzi is righteous." ”

Ivan couldn't help but have a good impression of the other party.

Although this person is as romantic as Mao Xiang, he is not inferior, and he does not seem to be the kind of person who loves one and is extremely possessive.

Perhaps, merry is the common virtue of all scholars in this era.

He hurriedly clarified: "It's not that I help her, I'm just teaching Miss Dong to support herself and let her help herself." ”

"Oh, what do you say?"

Fang Yizhi's question came again.

"I found that Miss Dong is very talented in cooking, so I wanted to help her find a place nearby so that she could earn money by cooking herself. ”

"Oh, that's a solution, Miss Dong is really talented in cooking, and the Xiaowan buns she made make us always remember. ”

Fang Yizhi immediately agreed.

Dong Xiaowan blushed again, and immediately clarified: "In fact, most of Xiaowan's buns are also the credit of Yi Gongzi, all the ideas were given by Yi Gongzi, and the crystal buns are also Yi Gongzi's masterpieces." ”

Ivan: "......"

Can you not lift me up like that?

I really don't want to be the main character and get the attention of these people.

That's a hassle!

But he didn't want trouble, and trouble was already coming.

Fang Yizhi seemed to be very enthusiastic, and asked again: "Oh, I don't know if Miss Dong wants to buy or buy a house?"

Dong Xiaowan looked at Ivan again and asked him to come up with an idea.

Ivan probably figured out the meaning of "僦", which should be equivalent to the "rent" in later generations.

He immediately replied, "Oh." ”

In another four or five years, the Ming Dynasty will fall, and Jinling will also fall, and then the house will not be worth anything at all, and maybe it will be occupied by the Qing soldiers, so there is no need to buy it at all.

Besides, the current Jinling house is not cheap, it is said that in a place like the Qinhuai River, where every inch of land is expensive, a house costs at least five or six hundred taels of silver.

Mind you, just a house.

Therefore, even if he broke the secret recipe of the squirrel fish and sold it to Wu's mother for silver, he might not be able to afford it.

As soon as Ivan's words came out, Mao Xiang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

In his opinion, this Yi Gongzi should not be a rich family pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, not a rich man.

In this way, there is hope for his careful thinking again.

He hurriedly persuaded: "Miss Dong, you still need to be cautious in this matter! Xiaowan buns sell well in Qinlou, but they may not come out, in case of an accident, it will not be good!"

Ivan: "......"

Hey, this guy is blocking my good deeds?

He has already started to fight Dong Xiaowan's idea?

Ivan can be regarded as hearing it, although Mao Xiang's words are tactful, they are reminding Dong Xiaowan to beware of being deceived.

What you have to guard against is his poor acid.

Alas, it turns out that this guy is a sanctimonious scheming!

He originally admired Mao Xiang's talent, but now, he began to doubt this guy's character.

Even if you want to beat her up, then you can help her get out of the sea of misery first!

He couldn't help but think of what happened to Chen Yuanyuan again.

At that time, Chen Yuanyuan also wanted to follow him, but he cruelly left Chen Yuanyuan alone, and was finally snatched away.

And this guy who pretends to write an article decades later to remember.

Alas, selfish, sanctimonious fellows!

Ivan can be regarded as seeing the presumptuous person clearly.

Also, Dong Xiaowan did not disappoint him.

She immediately replied: "Don't worry, with Yi Gongzi here, I don't have to worry, I trust him." ”

The tone is very resolute.

Seeing Mao Xiang once again show a disappointed look, a smug smile finally appeared on Ivan's face.

From this point of view, his appearance seems to make Mao Xiang's wishful thinking not so easy to fight!

That's it!

In this way, his plan to beat mandarin ducks with sticks doesn't seem to be so difficult!

Fang Yizhi on the side spoke again: "Young Master Yi, Miss Dong, I know that there is a place with a good location, why don't I take you to have a look?"

After saying that, he looked at Ivan expectantly again.

Ivan: "......"

Wow, this guy isn't going to let me go today!
