Chapter 100: Unspoken rules of life

"How can you win against Huang Gonggong?" Jia Mengle and Lu Yuanwai shared a carriage to rush back, and from the moment they went out, Lu Yuanwai was a little unhappy and very unhappy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Why can't I win him? Everyone is also the same Nine Roads and Sixteen Sons, the rules of the game are like this, why can't I win him?" Jia Mengle said with a smile, but he knew in his heart that if he lost like this, maybe he really wouldn't have a chance to enter the Meng Mansion again.

"You!" Lu Yuanwai sighed and continued, "You don't know, it's not as simple as playing chess, Master Meng asked me to bring you here, saying that it is to play chess, but it is better to be an escort." ā€

It seems that Lu Yuanwai has long been familiar with the routines here, and he has long been familiar with the matter of being a vase. "I really don't understand, isn't Gonggong Huang just a eunuch, Master Meng is a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, a dignified person, how can he obey a eunuch like this? ā€

"You are not a person in the government, you have never been in contact with them, the mouse only knows the mouse road, what is the name of the sentence? Officialdom Road, don't touch it, no matter how high your skills are, don't jump, the storm can't beat the wind on the pillow. Think about it, who is Gonggong Huang, a eunuch, what does a eunuch do? The people around the emperor, although he has no character or position, and cannot go to the court to discuss matters, but he eats, drinks, and speaks a few words casually to the emperor, which is more effective than what you say in the court. ā€

This made Jia Mengle never expect that a eunuch would have such energy, a good pillow wind, although this wind is small, but it attacks people's bone marrow, such stories abound in history, Yin Shang the world, he was defeated on Su Da's pillow wind, killed Cheng than did it, forced the general Huang Feihu, and caused his Jiangshan Sheji to be replaced by the king of martial arts......; It can be said that success is also this wind, and defeat is also this wind.

"I see!" "It's better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, these things that are not in the books, Jia Mengle was able to understand at this time. "But I still don't know something, as an outsider, you are not a person from the temple, why are you afraid?" Jia Mengle kept doing it. Be a humble student.

"Hahaha, brother, you're so cute, you can't even understand that. When Lu Yuanwai heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. His face was full of ridicule, "I am mainly engaged in business, what do I rely on to do business? I rely on personal connections, do business, if I just rely on buying a few buns a day, then how can it become its big climate, if you want to make a lot of money, you must take the road of official business, and the government and the court have money." But the officials need money, and I give it to them. But I need the power in their hands, and they gave it to me, with this kind of interest relationship, of course, the business is not worried, I can do whatever I want, and I can do whatever I want to make money. "People, once you are happy, no one even knows what your surname is, and Lu Yuanwai actually inadvertently told him the secret of doing business.

Lu Yuanwai's words made Jia Mengle shudder, all the time. To him, the government is like a blank piece of paper, without any concept, and today I heard Lu Yuanwai say this. Officials and businessmen, officials and businessmen, are embarrassed and dirty, how can they be honest and fair? How can they be honest and fair? How can they be honest and honest? It is no wonder that his mother often taught him that books can be read and that officials cannot be officials.

"I didn't expect that. The water is so deep. Jia Mengle couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother, there are a lot of articles here, if you want, stay and work with me, advance and retreat together, you are extremely smart, wise, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I believe it will not be long before you will be able to win a place in the capital." Lu Yuanwai said with a smile.

"Thank you, if it were someone else, you wouldn't tell me these unspoken rules, but I came this time to visit relatives and friends, and I still have a mother at home, so it is not appropriate to stay outside for a long time. Jia Mengle said sincerely, but he knew that Lu Yuanwai just wanted to pull him to his side, play chess with others, and talk about calligraphy and painting.

"It's not that my brother said you, you scholars, always like to make things sour, it's important to go home to visit Lingtang, but you don't have money, what can you do when you go home, money is not a problem, the problem is that there is no money, silver is not omnipotent, but without silver, you can't, to be filial, you have to have silver. When Lu Yuanwai said this, he couldn't help but burst into tears, a biao man, who has experienced vicissitudes in the capital, has read countless people, and will never shed tears easily until he is sad.

"What's wrong with you?" Jia Mengle asked with concern, and when he was about to reach out to comfort him, General Lu Yuanwai waved his hand and continued to talk about his sadness.

It turned out that Lu Yuanwai was not a local, he lost his father since he was a child, and he depended on his mother for his life, but he never thought that in the winter when he was ten years old, his mother was seriously ill, and at the age of ten, he took his mother to the hospital, but he was penniless, and the hospital refused to help him, even if he begged bitterly.

"I beg you, when my mother recovers from her illness, can I go to your hospital to work and pay back?"

"What are you doing here? I don't need food here, I want silver here!"

......

"No matter how I beg him, the **** of the medical hall is indifferent, just that night, just before and after the medical center, my mother ...... "The man has tears and does not flick, but he has not reached the sad place.

"Since then, I've vowed to find money, to be rich, to be rich. Since then, I have left my hometown, drifted around, and after years of hard work, I have established myself here in the capital. Lu Yuanwai said passionately and affectionately.

People, not afraid of poor ability, afraid of ruthlessly chasing the goal, Lu Yuanwai because of his mother's matter, ruthlessly looking for money, hard work pays off, he can finally find his goal in such a big place as the capital, and reach the other side of the ideal.

"That's how it is!" Jia Mengle didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh.

"Don't say it, if you want, take Lingtang to the capital, there is a big brother, it doesn't matter, so that I can also honor the old man." I believe that with you and I joining forces, we will definitely fight for a piece of heaven and earth in this capital. "What is a good brother, caring about his development prospects, honoring his family, supporting his ideas, and paving the way for his sake, this is a good brother.

Jia Mengle was grateful to Lu Yuanwai, he never thought that when he met Lu Yuanwai Pingshui, starting from the gambling house, meticulous care and care made him feel that the world was beautiful.

With gratitude, Jia Mengle returned to his residence, Guo Xueqin heard that Jia Mengle had returned home, and ran non-stop, "How is it?

"It's nothing, I helped Lu Yuanwai win 100 taels. Jia Mengle said lightly.

"Cut, where do you need 100 taels when people Lu Yuanwai has a lot of money?" People in the world can only look at the appearance, only see the beautiful side of others, see others spending money like dirt, see others hugging each other, and see others in power, but who will think about what is in front of other people's scenery? Money or power, it doesn't fall from the sky, Lu Yuanwai is rich, but what is behind his money? Who knows when he grovels, is subservient, and lowly and lowly?

"Don't envy others for having a lot of money, others envy you for being extraordinary. Linyuan envy fish, it is better to go home and weave nets. Jia Mengle couldn't help but say.

"I didn't mean that, what did you gain when you went to Mengfu?" Guo Xueqin did not envy other people's money from the bottom of her heart, but just said casually

Jia Mengle understood what Guo Xueqin asked, "Actually, I didn't find anything, but I feel that this Lord Meng is a little weird, and people who have a little appreciation of common sense know that those two paintings are fakes at all, but he just arrived in Lu Mansion that day, why didn't he say it? ā€

Jia Mengle told Master Meng about the things in the study one by one, Guo Xueqin was thoughtful, and after the two were silent for a while, Guo Xueqin analyzed, "This may be that Lord Meng is modest and cautious, that day at Lu Yuanwai's house, he didn't dare to comment in vain, and after going back and thinking about it repeatedly, he found out that it was a fake." ā€

"No, those two pieces of calligraphy are fakes, even people of my level can find out, not to mention a dignified scholar of Wenyuan University, didn't you listen to Yuan Muche, the four ghosts of the Western Regions, he is a well-known calligraphy lover!"

"Don't think about it, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, maybe he is just cautious, not as simple as you think. Rather than saying that this was Guo Xueqin's conclusion, it was better to say that he was comforting Jia Mengle, and she didn't want him to worry too much about fatigue.

Maybe it's really like what Guo Xueqin said, that day Master Meng was really just cautious? After Guo Xueqin left the room, Jia Mengle analyzed alone, "No, this is impossible, last time he made a special trip to the house, the purpose was to see the true face of the two paintings, and it was impossible for him to not even see the basics." Jia Mengle tossed and turned thinking about what happened, Wenyuan Pavilion Scholar, this is not a junior in the rivers and lakes, he is a dignified and first-class member, and he belongs to a cultured person, how can it be?

Why didn't he recognize the provenance of the two paintings the first time, and how can he decide the authenticity of the two paintings today? What the hell is going on? What is the problem?

Jia Mengle lay silently on the bed, showing countless images of Master Meng in his mind, familiar with calligraphy and painting, familiar with the rivers and lakes, fornicating with rebels, prosperous officials, and conspiring with businessmen, what is this sacred, so good?

"No, if you don't go into the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, if you want to eat radish, you must go to the vegetable field, you must enter the Meng Mansion, you can find out everything. Jia Mengle thought about Guo Zhentian, thought about Sima Lie, and thought that he didn't have much time left, and his heart couldn't help but feel sad. (To be continued.) )
