The Yellow River, which stretches across the Tianren Continent, froze in February in early spring. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoOn the shore of the wharf, rows of willow trees have just pulled out new shoots, and the merchants standing under the trees, their carriages, can only stop on the shore and wait for the ice to melt.

"Everyone, please be quiet, our son is also thinking of a way!"

Ye Hongye, a scholar, didn't expect that because of his words, those businessmen would recognize Su Lin's identity. Or in other words, Surin has been in the limelight lately. Maybe the people of other prefectures and counties in Wu don't know much about Su Lin's genius name, but these businessmen who travel all over the world are the most well-informed.

Wu Guo has produced such a genius as Su Lin, it is absolutely impossible for them not to know.

"Su Shizi! It's better to put aside this matter of freezing the Yellow River for now! There happens to be a child in the contemptible family, and he will take the county examination next year. I want to ask for a painting of Su Shizi's ink treasure, so that my children can also be touched by Su Shizi's talent......"

"I want it too! I want it too...... Su Shizi, the three sons in my family, are all about to take the exam. They read Su Shizi's poems such as "Autumn Words", "Yanqiu Ci", "Compassion for Nong", "Summer Quatrain" and so on, and they admired them very much, and completely regarded Su Shizi as an idol. The old man dared to ask Su Shizi for a calligraphy, you can write anything, and you can encourage my three sons when I go back......"

"Yes, yes, yes...... Su Shizi, I won't ask for your Mobao in vain! Every word, I ...... I'll give you a thousand taels of silver......"

......

Su Lin's side was lively, all of them were businessmen and shopkeepers, and they just squeezed over and formed a circle in front of Su Lin, all of whom asked Su Lin's handwritten ink treasure. Even some businessmen have already released the price, and they want to buy Su Lin's words at a price of one thousand taels and one word, which is really a thousand words.

It's no wonder that these businessmen are so crazy, although Surin writes a lot, but there is not much handwriting that is actually given away. Moreover, those Confucian scholars who received handwriting and ink treasures from Surin were usually collected by themselves, and there was no surplus to sell.

Just like Su Lin wrote so many calligraphy in the mansion, in the end, it was not cheaper for the second uncle Su Zhong, he stole it in one go, took it back to the mansion and carefully studied Su Lin's calligraphy and the ideas contained in it. Therefore, it is really not easy to ask for a handwritten copy of Surin outside.

It can be said that it has reached the point where there is no price in the market. Each of Surin's calligraphy starts at least 100,000 taels. With such a high price, those landlords and squires were still happy to compete with each other.

Just kidding, this is the Mobao of Su Lin Su Shizi, who is the head of the case in Lianzhong, Maocai and Xie Yuan within half a year, not to mention that Su Lin's handwriting is originally a school of its own, and even Mr. Cai Hecai, a calligrapher, is very much praised, just in the name of Su Lin's current genius, his handwriting is definitely the most enthusiastic Wenbao for businessmen who have children and grandchildren in their families who want to participate in the imperial examination.

Because of this, a subordinate who used to work in Jian'an Mansion accidentally collected a few calligraphy sheets for Su Lin's practice, took them back to his home, and sold them for more than 200,000 taels of silver in a single hand, and made a fortune in an instant. So much so that this subordinate ran to the courtyard of the mansion overnight and carefully searched among the various garbage heaps, but unfortunately he could no longer find Su Lin's handwritten ink treasure.

Therefore, when these merchants saw that it was Surin, their excitement was understandable. With such a great opportunity, of course, you won't miss asking Surin for Mobao.

"Lao Ye, you send these merchants away, and I'll ask the boatmen at the docks how they deal with this situation. ”

For these profit-seeking businessmen, Surin really has no way to meet their needs. If it was an occasional encounter or two people who asked for Mobao on the road, Su Lin might have considered that meeting was fate, but now that there are so many businessmen, there are not thousands but hundreds, if he really sets a precedent, I am afraid that he will have to write a word for each of them.

The most important thing now is to solve the problem of freezing on the surface of the Yellow River, so of course, Su Lin must first find the old boatman on the dock of the Yellow River, and only after understanding the situation can he prescribe the right medicine.

And the scene of these merchants by the river frantically chasing Surin surprised the eldest princess of the dragon clan who was observing the situation at the bottom of the river, and she was stunned for a moment, and then asked the prime minister of the turtle next to her: "Prime Minister Turtle! That Surin is just a mere person, why do those merchants who come and go respect him so much?"

"This ...... Celestial princess, the old minister doesn't know very well. However, it seems that those merchants are begging Su Lin to leave a letter, but he is a mere person, what qualifications does he have to write inscriptions for others? You must know that among the Confucian scholars of the human race, they usually have to write at least a scholar's degree or above to have the potential to become a literary treasure. ”

Prime Minister Gui Cheng was also puzzled, and said, "What's more, the merchants on the side of the Yellow River are all very far-sighted. How could they rush to ask for such a high-ranking character as Surin......?

"Unless what? This Surin really has a lot of strange things!" the eldest princess of the dragon clan couldn't help but be aroused by curiosity, and asked.

"Unless this Surin's handwriting is special, and he has the name of a genius in his own right. In this way, his words will be valuable, otherwise, even if he is a genius. The words that are written cannot be turned into treasures, and they have no value at all!"

Prime Minister Gui's guess is not wrong, originally Confucian writing, after being infused with holy power, there is a certain degree of can become a treasure. However, this can only be a bachelor who has asked responsibly, and can use the pen to write to create calligraphy and painting treasures.

Neither the lifter nor the Jinshi have this ability, so the calligraphy and paintings written by the Jinshi and below have no additional power, and can only be used for closing, so naturally they have no value. However, Su Lin is completely different, although the handwriting he writes can not be regarded as a literary treasure, but with his unique Yan Ti characters, as well as the thoughts poured into it, as long as you gaze at it over time, it will be imperceptibly helpful for Confucian scholars who practice thought.

Not to mention, with Su Lin's talent, even if he painted an egg, it was worth a lot of money, and what he sold was just the fame of a genius.

"These merchants of the Terran are all unprofitable and cannot afford to be early. Since they were so frantically asking Surin for handwriting and ink treasures, there must be something special about them. Prime Minister Turtle, if we have the opportunity, we will also get a few of Su Lin's ink treasures and study them carefully. ”

Looking at the crazy appearance of the merchants on the shore, the eldest princess of the dragon clan became even more curious about Su Lin.

At this time, Su Lin was walking to the wharf, found the old boatman who had just persuaded the merchants not to go down the river easily, and asked:

I am Su Lin, the son of the Su family in Jian'an Mansion, and I have been ordered to cross the Yellow River to the capital in an urgent matter. But now that the Yellow River is frozen, how can we break the ice and cross the river?"

"It turned out to be the famous Su Maocai, and the old man has seen Su Maocai!"

The wharf of the Yellow River here is only thousands of miles away from Jian'an Mansion, so the old boatmen have also heard of Su Lin's talent and literary name, especially in the last Jian'an Mansion government test, Su Lin said that he raised the 3927 Da Ding, which made his reputation shocked, and the old boatman also heard that they were shocked when they sent Confucian scholars across the river.

"Old man, our family has just passed the state test for Xie Yuan, and now he can't be called Su Maocai, he should be called Su Xie Yuan, or Su Shizi!" Ye Hongye, a scholar, finally appeased those businessmen and persuaded them to die After asking Su Lin to write an inscription, he hurried over and corrected the old boatman with a smile.

"It's an old decay that has no eyes! Please forgive Su Jieyuan. ”

The old boatman confessed, and then continued: "If Su Jieyuan wants to cross the river, the only way is to break the ice, so that the ferry can come and go." Otherwise, if you rashly drive on the ice, there will inevitably be weak points on the surface of the river more than ten miles wide, and when the time comes, even people and cars will fall into the ice cave, and there will be no life......

"We knew the best thing to do was to break the ice and then take a ferry. But now that the river is frozen for dozens of miles, we are here to ask how to break the ice. ”

Ye Hongye, a university scholar, said impatiently, the noise of those businessmen just now was annoying enough.

"Old man, did this happen before? Or in the past, when the river froze and there was an urgent matter to cross the Yellow River, how did you deal with it?"

In Su Lin's mind, in the early winter, the current situation will definitely appear on the surface of the Yellow River, that is, the ice surface is not up or down, it is inconvenient for the ferry to cross the river, and it is impossible to drive directly over it. So, he wanted to ask what had been done in the past.

"Back to Su Jieyuan, this spring cold has happened a few times, but the cold is not much, not enough to freeze the ice surface. However, in early winter, the river has just begun to freeze. Normally, we just start to stop and when the ice on the river is thick, the merchants can drive straight in. If there is really an emergency, we will report it to the prefect of Guide Prefecture, and he will naturally send someone to use the thawing poem to break the surface of the Yellow River......"

The old boatman said truthfully, "After discovering that the river was frozen this morning, we have already sent someone to report to the prefect as soon as possible, and I think the prefect will send someone to come soon." ”

"So that's the case, it seems that you really need to use thawing poetry. However, since their local prefect has a solution, Lao Ye, it seems that we don't need to come forward. Anyway, it won't be delayed for long, and our Surin car is faster than a normal horse-drawn carriage, so it won't delay the trip......"

As soon as Su Lin's words fell, the merchants on the shore became noisy.

"The prefect of Guide Prefecture is here...... I also brought the students of the prefectural school, and this time, the thaw of the river is expected to be ......"
