Chapter 387: Purifying the Circle of Friends
On the same night, Second Master Shen came out of Canglang Pavilion Lin Mansion and returned to Shen Mansion, where his brother-in-law Li Hong was still waiting.
Second Master Shen frowned and pondered for a while before he said slowly: "I think now that what Lin Tai said actually makes sense.
Before you transferred to the school, you didn't greet Lin Tailai, and before you enrolled, you didn't say anything to Lin Tailai in advance.
From this point of view, it is indeed impolite and lacks respect for Lin Tailai.
It's like a person from this hall going to another hall to do business, and he should greet him in advance, otherwise it will be an offense. ”
"But this is a school, not a church." Li Hong argued.
Second Master Shen replied: "It doesn't matter what place it is, the important thing is that Lin Tailai thinks that it is his territory, so you'd better think the same way." ”
Now only the second master of the Shen family is in Suzhou, who can speak on behalf of the Shen Mansion, while the other two are far away in Beijing, and they can't quench their thirst from far water.
So when he heard Second Master Shen say this, Li Hong suddenly became anxious, and said without hesitation: "Which side are you standing on to speak?"
You can't even help your own family because you can always get benefits from Lin Tailai! ”
Second Master Shen's face turned cold, and he said again: "I'm more sure now that Lin Tailai is indeed very reasonable. ”
Li Hong also said angrily: "I am Shen Xiang's son-in-law and your brother-in-law, and Lin Tailai is just your future in-laws."
Can't you tell the difference between the distant and close relatives in this? ”
Second Master Shen responded unceremoniously: "If you only talk about distant and close relatives, the relationship between my father and Lin Tailai may be closer than yours."
No wonder Lin Tailai refuses to accept you, if you face Lin Tailai with such a mentality, it will be normal. ”
Vision determines insight, and if you don't have a deep understanding of the inside story of the political disputes in the court in the past two years, it is difficult to understand why the relationship between Lin Tailai and Shoufu is closer than that of Weng's son-in-law.
Li Hong got up angrily and said, "After all, the school is a school of the imperial court, not Lin Tailai's private school!"
From tomorrow onwards, I will continue to go to the school to listen to lectures and learn texts, can Lin Tailai still beat me out? ”
Second Master Shen said indifferently: "Whatever, I don't know what will happen, you can experience it yourself tomorrow." ”
The next day, Li Hong came to Fuxue, and saw dozens of people gathered at the gate of Fuxue from a distance.
Now there are only so many people who can go to the school every day, so it can be understood that the students who came to the school today are blocked at the gate.
I saw a table by the door, and on the table was a paperwork.
Lin Daguan stood there and said calmly to everyone: "Before the entrance examination, two people suddenly transferred to the government school from outside and grabbed the original township examination places.
This kind of behavior is not in compliance, and I would like to lodge a protest with the Grand Master, and I would like to ask my colleagues to sign it here. ”
Just these few words blocked all the students who arrived at the school today.
In fact, Lin Daguan did not physically stop others from forcing them to sign, let alone draw a line on the ground to prevent others from passing.
But everyone is thinking in their hearts, if they enter the school without signing today, will Lin Tailai be regarded as not giving face and causing trouble?
Therefore, the most difficult thing for a person is to overcome their inner fears.
But the signature is not so easy to sign, after all, it is the son-in-law of the first assistant and the son of the university scholar who want to protest!
Lin Tailai can ignore it, but others can't.
As a result, in a dilemma, they all hesitated outside the gate, watching the situation.
Although Li Honglai was aggressive, he was a little cowardly at this time, he looked left and right, and found Wang Heng standing on the periphery.
So Li Hong hurriedly approached and asked, "What do you think?" ”
Wang Heng grimaced, "It's nothing, this method is just manipulating issues and creating antagonistic emotions!"
The aim is to stir up our classmates to stand in opposition to us. ”
Li Hong hurriedly asked, "How is that good?" ”
Next, Wang Heng only said four words: "Wait and see what happens." ”
At this time, a man suddenly came out of the crowd and signed the paperwork.
Everyone looked at it together and couldn't help but be taken aback, this person was actually Lin Tailai's old rival Wang Yusheng, the noble son of the Dongshan Wang family, Wang Yusheng!
When the county test and the government test were taken, the two competed for the first place! The year before last, Lin Daguan repaired the new city gate and directly demolished half of the Wang family's Yi Lao Garden!
Lin Tailai was also surprised, but he didn't expect that the first person to sign an autograph was actually Wang Yusheng.
Shocked, Lin Daguan couldn't help but ridicule: "Are you worried that after Wang Heng and Li Hong enter the school, your status as the first noble son of the school will not be guaranteed?" ”
Wang Yusheng replied coldly: "First, it is inappropriate for them to cut the queue and transfer to the government school like this, and it is unfair to others, I don't approve of it.
Second, you Lin Tailai is very strong now, and our Wang family will not deliberately make enemies of the strong. ”
Lin Tailai can only say that the Dongshan Wang family is worthy of being a century-old half-Confucian and half-merchant family, and its principles are indeed more flexible.
After finishing speaking, Wang Yusheng walked into the school without looking back.
Then the young Feng Menglong moved over, and after struggling for a while, he also signed his name, and then wanted to chase Wang Yusheng.
Lin Daguan's popularity couldn't be beaten, so he lifted Xiao Feng Menglong up and shouted:
"I knew you earlier, didn't I? I'm also more familiar with Ling Zun, right?
Even your fame, I helped you get it! How many people can enter school at the age of thirteen?
But you only know that you are following Wang Yusheng all day long, and you sign to see Wang Yusheng's movements first, which is really disappointing to me! ”
Xiao Feng Menglong kicked his legs indiscriminately and shouted, "My father is afraid that I will learn badly from you!" ”
"Phew!" Lin Daguan spurned and said: "Last time, I invited your father to see a doctor and go to drink flower wine together, your father played more happily than anyone else!" ”
Behind Xiao Feng Menglong, Jin Shiheng and Chen Yunjian, two classmates who are usually close to Lin Daguan, also came forward to sign and support.
This is also something that cannot be helped, so to speak, the two of them must sign today.
It may not matter if others don't sign, after all, I don't know Lin Daguan well, and I have no obligation to support Lin Daguan.
But Jin Shiheng and Chen Yunjian, two friends, can't sign it, if they don't sign today, then they will have a feud, so they have no choice.
There are a few people who are closer to Lin Daguan, and they have come up one after another to sign their names, and it is estimated that their mentality is similar to that of Jin Shiheng and Chen Yunjian.
In fact, these people are all expected, and Lin Daguan wants to see who else will sign.
Then I saw a young gentleman who didn't usually pay much attention, walked slowly to the table, read the document slowly, and then signed it.
Lin Daguan glanced at it, and saw that the name written was Shen Xuan, so he subconsciously said: "It's almost over, the last piece of the puzzle is complete!" ”
Shen Hui felt inexplicable, what are these words?
Lin Daguan asked with a smile: "Are you not afraid of offending the ruling government by participating in the protest like this?" ”
Shen Hui replied very sincerely: "I have a clan brother who is an official in Beijing and has a good relationship with Shen Xiang, presumably Shen Xiang will not blame me for this little thing." ”
Lin Daguan was speechless, in fact, this is the confidence of the family, this Shen Fu should be from the Songling Shen family of Wujiang County, and in recent years, there have been many talents.
The most important thing is that the Wusong River originates in Taihu Lake and then flows through Wujiang County.
After waiting for a while, Lin Daguan asked loudly, "Is anyone else willing to sign it?" ”
No one responded, and most of the rest of the people still stood there and watched.
Then Lin Daguan didn't wait, and simply put away the paperwork neatly.
Some people saw Lin Daguan put away the paperwork, and vaguely felt that they had lost some opportunities.
At this time, I heard Lin Daguan announce: "Let's stop here!" ”
This surprised everyone present, and this is the end of it?
The government school is not as good as the county school, and the number of students is not so widespread, and the current total is only about 100.
If you want to launch a joint protest and create a momentum, why do you have to organize dozens of signatures?
But the number of signatures just now, starting from Wang Yusheng, plus you Lin Tailai himself, is only nine in total.
It's fair to say that it's not broadly representative at all, and it looks like a few people messing around.
Could it be that you, Senior Officer Lin, are planning to take the document signed by nine people and go to the Grand Master to protest?
But Lin Daguan didn't seem to care, and at this time he was talking to a few people around him with a smile.
"Thank you for your support to me Lin Tailai, within this year, I will visit your father one by one and look forward to the future together!"
Everyone: "??? ”
What do you mean by this? You have nothing to say to us, so you can only go to your father?
Everyone is a young scholar, what kind of senior are you here!
At this moment, they don't know how big the blueprint in Lin Tailai's heart is, and they are all selected by Lin Tailai as their future partners.
"Lin Tailai, you bastard!" Suddenly, someone shouted violently, alarming everyone.
Before everyone could see clearly, who was so bold as to dare to insult Lin Tailai in public, they saw a figure rushing in front of Lin Tailai.
At this time, an even more amazing scene happened, this figure actually punched Lin Tailai again!
Lin Daguan, who has been in battle for a long time, naturally would not be hit by such a punch, and his muscles shook and dodged like muscle memory.
However, Lin Daguan did not fight back with his fist, and asked with a smile: "What are you angry about now?" ”
At this time, everyone saw clearly that the person who insulted and waved his fist turned out to be Wang Heng, the son of the university scholar Wang Xijue, and Lin Tailai was one of the targets of the joint protest this time.
So everyone's hearts were filled with the same question as Lin Daguan, why are you angry now?
If you want to be angry, Wang Heng should be angry from the beginning. And now Lin Tailai is about to close the stall, and the joint signature is also unsuccessful, why did Wang Heng start to get angry instead?
Wang Heng didn't say a word, got up and left.
He can't explain to people that he feels like he's being treated like a pawn, so he's angry, right?
He dared to say that he was the only one present who had already seen the truth!
Lin Tailai just regarded "being an enemy of the son-in-law of the first assistant and the son of a university scholar" as a test, effectively screened the classmates, and purified the circle of friends around him!
If you can not be afraid of the first assistant and the scholar, even if you pass the test, you will naturally be an ally in the future.
Therefore, his Wang Heng's and his family background were all used by Lin Tailai as a chess piece.
What made him even more ashamed and ridiculous was that at first he thought that Lin Tailai deliberately created antagonism against him and regarded himself as an enemy.
As a result, Lin Tailai, who had no one in his eyes, did not regard himself as an opponent at all, but only as a pawn playing the role of a touchstone.
This is what makes the arrogant Wang Heng feel angry, and he has lost his temper again and again, but he can't say it to the outside world.
But Lin Daguan was very satisfied with today's result, and there were eight signatures except him, which was much better than expected.
And most of the family backgrounds are not bad, and they are all very potential partners.
Opening up the Wusong River estuary for Suzhou is a super project today.
Across several counties in Songjiang, Suzhou, the imperial court has a conservative attitude, from policy to capital and technology, all aspects of the risk are very large, and only by finding a few more partners can we increase the ability to resist risks.
With his Lin Tailai alone, he really can't afford such a big super project. Even if you eat it hard, it is easy to have indigestion.
When he returned home, he found that Feng Shike Feng was already waiting.
Lin Daguan, who was in a good mood, asked, "Feng Gong figured it out?" ”
Feng Shike sighed deeply and said something brainless: "If I follow your standards, I may still be a person who doesn't understand." ”
Lin Daguan said again: "Don't care about Wang Heng!" We have so many things to do together! ”
Feng Shike said: "You may not know that Wang Heng studied with Yizhou Gong in Taicang, and he is a student of Yizhou Gong. ”
Lin Daguan asked in surprise: "Why didn't you say it before?" ”
Master Feng said honestly: "In view of the relationship between you and the Duke of Yizhou, I was afraid of extraneous branches, so I omitted to mention it. ”
Lin Daguan explained against his will: "Between me and the Duke of Yizhou, it is a moral dispute!" No other interests are involved! ”
Feng Shi didn't care what Lin Tailai said, he only said his own: "In addition to the relationship between the Duke of Yizhou, there is also the fact that my brother has passed away before, and he entrusted me to take care of my niece more before he died."
So for my niece and son-in-law Wang Heng, as an elder, I do have a responsibility and can't ignore it. ”
Lin Tailai said disappreciatively: "But people's abilities are limited after all, and it is impossible to cover everything, don't always entangle Wang Heng!"
Your Feng family is a very influential family in Songjiang Mansion, and I will have a big layout in Songjiang Mansion in the future, and I happen to partner with you, this is the big thing you should pay attention to! ”
Feng Shike shook his head and said, "If your ability is limited and you can't take care of Wang Heng, then that's it."
You, Lin Tailai, are a very determined person, and I don't have the ability to correct your thoughts.
But when I couldn't help Wang Heng, I turned my head and cooperated with you, how does this make others see me?
So I can only appreciate your kindness. ”
Lin Daguan was stunned, over the years, he had been moving with his interests and being invincible, but he didn't expect it to fail here with Master Feng.
Today, he actually saw the so-called "wind of the ancients" from Master Feng.
Obviously, the Feng family has just split up recently, and Feng Shike has given most of the family property to his brothers, so he doesn't have so much money at this time.
Should he be said to be transparent, or is he not transparent?
This paragraph is too much of a failure.,There's no time to re-change it.。。 You can only end it quickly and start a new game
