Chapter 80: Cheng Zheng is shameless
"Hey, where's your wine? Hurry up and get it, take it up, and my son will be rewarded. ”
Seeing that Li Yunxing did not react, the person farthest from the stage shouted loudly to Li Yunxing.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted them, and he didn't dare to tell them that this was the prince of the dynasty, so he had to smile and smile, "Childe, wait a minute, the best wine will arrive soon." ”
After saying that, he turned around and went to instruct his subordinates to prepare, both sides are masters, and he can't afford to offend on both sides.
Li Yunxing glanced around, everyone may have been drinking for a long time, or they haven't left since last night.
Even on the top floor, which is transparent on both sides, the rich smell of wine makes people frown.
There are wine jugs all over the ground, and there are dozens of jars of Jiuyu spring wine alone, and thousands of taels of silver can be used in a day, and this Ning family is really generous.
Finally, the person closest to Li Yunxing discovered his arrival.
Seeing Xiao Er next to him, his eyes looked up and down, seeing that this dress was not bad, could it be that he was a rich disciple?
"Who's coming?" The man asked.
Li Yunxing raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the drunks all over the ground, the disgust in his eyes was only a little more.
Xiao Er was about to tell on his behalf at this time, but he was silenced because of Li Yunxing's gesture not to move.
Instead of answering the man's question, he made an offer.
"I heard that you are playing the archery of a gentleman's dispute, although you are not good at archery, but you are proficient in poetry, and I want to ask you for advice."
"Huh, proficient in poetry? Our son Ning Gang, the son of the dignified mutual market supervisor, is here, are you still so arrogant? ”
Li Yunxing hooked his lips and smiled, "What Ning Gang Ning folds, I've never heard of it." ”
That person suddenly took the case, this was a good opportunity to show Ning Gang's loyalty.
With Li Yunxing's thorn sent to the door, he can just show his performance.
"Why should we compare yourself to you, what are you? Someone ...... coming."
"Cheng Zheng! It doesn't have to be that way. Ning Gang stopped him.
It turned out that the person's name was Cheng Zheng, Li Yunxing secretly thought for a while, he was not unfamiliar with the name Cheng Zheng.
It seems to be a well-known smelting and casting merchant in Yizhou, specializing in selling bronze utensils to the Xiongnu and the Western Regions.
Some things were not rare in the Wu Dynasty, but when they changed hands to the barbarian land, their value could increase several times.
No wonder he licked Ning Gang like a pug.
Ning Gang's father, Ning Hanyu, was in charge of the merchant waterways, and if heavy objects such as iron were transported by wheeled vehicles, I am afraid that when they were transported to the Western Regions, the horses would be tired to death.
On the contrary, water transportation is the most convenient, and if Ning Hanyu can give them convenience, the natural profit will be more sufficient.
Ning Gang beckoned and ordered someone to prepare a separate table for Li Yunxing, "Those who come are guests, and Ning is willing to accompany them." ”
is worthy of being the son of a mutual market supervisor, and the degree of oiliness is extraordinary, Li Yunxing is a little impressed by Ning Gang in his heart.
After the drama on the stage ended, several actors stopped directly when they saw that a few of the actors present seemed to have no intention of watching the play again.
Li Yunxing neither sat nor drank, but just glanced around lightly.
It seems that Ning Hanyu, as a mutual market supervisor, is inconvenient to come forward, so Ning Gang interacted with these wealthy businessmen to extract oil and water.
"Gentlemen's dispute, dare or don't dare?" Li Yunxing asked again.
If it is about archery, Li Yunxing may not be as superb as the other party.
But the "gentleman's dispute" in this Wu Dynasty is not simply a comparison of archery art, usually two people hold wine, take something as the theme, and chant poems.
After seven steps, the flask is thrown into the air, and whoever composes the poem first has the right to shoot arrows first.
"Why don't you dare!"
Cheng Zheng couldn't get used to Li Yunxing's lofty appearance, and immediately sat up from the soft couch.
It's just that the wine is really strong enough that he can't help but stumble twice.
This move also caused a bearded man next to him to laugh, "Cheng Gongzi, can you do it?" Don't be ashamed. ”
Cheng Zheng's face was a little unbearable, "Brother Qi, don't worry about this!" He dared to offend Ning Gongzi, but he didn't give me Cheng Zheng face. ”
Looking back, Cheng Zheng asked Li Yunxing, "This is more boring than archery, how about not betting on the next point?" ”
This is exactly what Li Yunxing wants.
"Then take your life as a gamble."
As soon as these words came out, the hall was silent.
Although everyone is a businessman, few people are willing to gamble with their lives to win or lose.
It's a gamble!
After a moment of silence, someone admonished, "Little gambling pleasure, this son is a face, but there is no need to be so aggressive." ”
Li Yunxing had no intention of backing down, and raised his eyebrows coldly.
"Why, don't you dare? Or is your archery just mediocre, relying on a few taels of silver to pretend here, afraid of losing? ”
The words aroused the anger of the people, and they concluded that this man was definitely looking for trouble.
There are still a few beautiful little girls on the side, if you don't have more admittance.
"Compare to compare!" Cheng Zheng stood up.
Li Yunxing crossed his arms and looked defiant.
Quickly shopkeeper helped set up the platform, and the two stood on both sides, each with ten arrows in the quiver behind them.
A poem can be written with one arrow, and ten arrows are ten lines.
If you don't hit either, it counts as a tie.
This battle of gambling with life as a game also attracted many onlookers from Baixilou.
"I heard that there is going to be a life-betting game upstairs, let's go up and have a look!"
"Really? Who would dare to bet like that? ”
"I don't know, I heard that it's a boy I don't know, who gambled with the famous rich businessman Cheng Zheng."
"Then let's go check it out."
Now the owner of the Baiju Building, Coke, blossomed, but he didn't expect so many people to come for a while.
And downstairs, Lian Jirouben sat in the tea shop outside the building and waited for Li Yunxing, after all, she took Jun out on patrol, even if she was unhappy, she never left.
Seeing so many people suddenly running towards Baixilou, they followed in confusion.
As soon as she heard about this gamble, she guessed, "It's the prince......"
"Two sons, I don't know what the topic is?"
Li Yunxing didn't answer, but Cheng Zheng was the most excited, after all, it was a major matter of human life.
"Since they are all men, why don't you take the world as the theme?"
Cheng Zheng's voice fell, and the people around him immediately echoed.
"Okay."
Then the two of them walked back ten steps at the same time, and Cheng Zheng had already thought of the answer.
"The world is peaceful, and life is happy." Cheng Zheng took the lead in answering the question.
A gong sounded, "Cheng Gongzi, yes!" ”
Then the maid threw the flask high into the air, and an arrow flew straight towards the flask.
Could it be that the first arrow will determine life and death?
Cheng Zheng was also very excited, but he didn't expect a gust of wind to blow on the roof, and the arrow missed its head, only to hear a "bang", and the wine jug smashed to the ground.
Now the initiative came to Li Yunxing, "The world is ashamed, and Cheng Zheng is ashamed." ”
As soon as this poem came out, the audience was even more stunned.
Good poetry! What a poem!
It not only contains the world, but also is the opposite of Cheng Zheng's poems.
At the same time, he also scolded Cheng Zheng for being a shameless person, which is really a few ranks higher.
