I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 160 Fighting Bet
"Young Master, you can't do anything!" He quickly stopped Fatty Chen who was about to do it. Chai Yi's eyes were full of disdain and contempt. Is he a pig's brain?Doing something to the students who are about to take the government examination under the eyes of everyone is not sending a ready-made handle to Zhang Zhifu.

Fatty Chen, who was being teased by everyone, roared angrily, and kicked Chai Yi who was blocking him, "Get out of the way!"

Chai Yi turned his back to Fatty Chen, and he was also standing on the stairs. After this kick came, the unsuspecting Chai Yi fell face down on his face.

After the sound of the bang, Zhan Feiyu looked at Chai Yi who fell to his feet, and took two steps back with a crisp smile, "Even if Young Master Chen speaks rudely, Chai Xiucai doesn't have to perform such a big gift, I'm still a white body, and I'll accept it." Sorry."

There was another burst of laughter in the lobby, amused by Zhan Feiyu's narrowness.

Originally, I thought that Zhan Feiyu was arrogant and arrogant, relying on his teacher Gu Xueshi, acting arrogant and ruthless, but now I see that she is a playful and cute little girl. Although she is a bit naughty, she is not annoying at all.

The teeth hit his lips, and a mouthful of blood fell out. Chai Yi could hardly suppress his rage, wiped the blood and stood up, and said through his teeth, "Master, why don't we go back first."

"Go back!" Fatty Chen was still a little guilty at first, after all, Chai Yi was his aide, and he often gave him advice, no matter how tricky things were thrown to Chai Yi, he would definitely be able to solve them perfectly.

But seeing Chai Yi being so cowardly, Fatty Chen pushed him away in disgust, stood on the stairs and glared at Zhan Feiyu, "Even if you are a disciple named Gu, so what? When my Chen family is vegetarian Is it? Zhan Feiyu, if you obediently kowtow to the young master today to admit your mistake and look at Xueshi Gu's face, forget it, otherwise..."

Fortunately, he still has some brains. Fatty Chen didn't directly say that Zhan Feiyu couldn't take the government examination, otherwise, if he was charged with interfering in the imperial examination, it would be a serious crime of beheading.

Tilting his head slightly, Zhan Feiyu's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, but the words he said were full of murderous intent, "In this case, why don't you draw the road, Young Master Chen, whether you want to fight literary or martial arts, whoever loses?" , see the other party in the future and take a detour!"

"I..." Fatty Chen poked his neck and just said a word, but when he thought that he had no ink, Fatty Chen said in a high voice, "Fight!"

I have seen shameless ones, but I have never seen such shameless ones!The scholars in the lobby looked at the righteous Fatty Chen with disdain.

Not to mention the difference between the two men and women, and there is still a difference of seven or eight years in age, but in terms of physique, although Zhan Feiyu is not thin, she is short, and Fatty Chen, who is full of flesh, probably has stronger arms than Zhan Feiyu. His legs are thick, and he is embarrassed to say martial arts.

Not caring about other people's contempt at all, Fatty Chen rolled his eyes and continued loudly: "Since you want to fight, there must be a bet. If you lose, you will go back to Shangsi County and you will not be allowed to participate in this year's government examination! "

Before Zhan Feiyu could open his mouth, the scholar in Tsing Yi had already slapped the table and stood up, glaring at the complacent Fatty Chen, "You are such an ignorant dude, apart from being able to do evil and bully others, do you know that our students study hard in poor windows? It is extremely shameless to dare to utter wild words in spite of hardships!"

"Brother Mei, don't get angry, what do these dandies know other than relying on their family background to do their best!" A classmate on the side persuaded, with the same angry expression, ruining one's future is like killing one's parents!
Although Zhan Feiyu is a little girl, she also comes from a poor family. Even if she is a teacher of Bachelor Gu, Zhan Feiyu's hand-crafted Taige style alone is enough to know how hard she studies on weekdays. This is something that scholars in Nanxuan Mansion can accept. One of the reasons why Cham is not a fish.

Fatty Chen didn't care that he had caused public anger at all, and looked aggressively at Zhan Feiyu, "Do you dare to bet?"

"Then what should I do if I win? Master Chen, can you place an equal bet?" Zhan Feiyu asked back with a chuckle. Compared with several angry scholars, she was calm and calm.

"5000 taels of silver!" Fatty Chen spent a lot of money boldly, and squinted his mung bean eyes and snorted contemptuously, "I'm afraid you have never seen so much silver in your life, have you?"

"Young master Chen, I think you don't know that although the beauty makeup is the property of Prince Yu, the recipe for the fragrant pan is my own." Zhan Feiyu said that he was also rich and powerful, "Someone offered 5 taels to the buyer before. I didn't even sell the money, Young Master Chen, do you think I'm short of money?"

Zhan Feiyu smiled and said, "The shopkeeper seems to be from the Chen family."

"You!" Fatty Chen blushed angrily. It was because of the failure of the buyer that he wanted to use heresy ways to seek the prescription. In the past, relying on his status as the eldest prince's niece, Fatty Chen did a lot of murder. Multiplayer secret recipe.

Thinking of something, Fatty Chen stared contemptuously, and deliberately raised his voice, "5 taels is not enough, Zhan Feiyu, your heart is really black!"

Shaking his head, the despised Zhan Feiyu let out a long sigh, "Summer insects are beyond words."

I hate these kind of scholars the most!Fatty Chen snapped back angrily, "If you are greedy for money, you are greedy for money. There is no need to say such incomprehensible words!"

There are tens of thousands of scholars in the world, but more than [-]% of them are from poor families. I originally thought that Zhan Feiyu was one of them, but hearing Fatty Chen's superficial instigation made some people look at Zhan Feiyu with complicated eyes .

"It seems that Young Master Chen doesn't know why I refused to sell the prescription." Zhan Feiyu turned around and looked at the scholars in the lobby, "Scented soap has the effect of decontamination. It can be used for washing clothes or bowls and chopsticks. The selling price They are all fifty yuan a piece, and can be used for a month, even ordinary people can afford it."

Fragrant pancakes became popular in the Daqing Dynasty as soon as they were released, and most women would buy them unless they were poor and unable to get rid of the pot.

"Master Chen, if the Chen family buys the prescription of Xiangpanzi, it is estimated that the price will increase immediately? Five hundred yuan a piece, or one thousand yuan? This is the only family in the Daqing Dynasty. Rare goods can be lived in. The Chen family must sell them no matter how expensive they are. People will buy it, but poor families can only continue to use plant ash or acacia."

After Zhan Feiyu said this, the scholars in the lobby understood that Xiangpanzi is not a tool for the Chen family or other merchants to make money. Only in the hands of Zhan Feiyu can the price be sold so low that ordinary women Everyone can afford it.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Zhan Feiyu with a touch of admiration.

The scholar in Tsing Yi, who had slapped the table before, saluted Zhan Feiyu solemnly, "A gentleman loves money and obtains it in a proper way. Miss Zhan's move, Mei admires it!"

Others also stood up and saluted one after another. 5000 taels of silver is a huge fortune, and 5 taels is even unthinkable. However, Zhan Feiyu, a nine-year-old girl, is rich and not promiscuous. Such a noble character is worthy of them. This ceremony.

Seeing this scene, Chai Yi laughed angrily. Zhan Feiyu really should not be underestimated. After these words spread, her reputation will definitely be improved to a higher level.

Fatty Chen was so angry that he was speechless. These scholars are all brain-filled idiots. They scolded themselves for being shameless. Isn't Zhan Feiyu shameless?Who doesn't understand the principle of small profits but quick turnover?

"Miss Zhan's words are wrong." Chai Yi, as Fatty Chen's staff, said sharply: "The price of fragrant pancakes is low, but the quantity that can be sold is huge. If the price increases, the quantity will be greatly reduced. But comparing the two The total money has not changed much, but the strategy is different."

In short, the former is nothing more than small profits but high sales, while the latter is high in price and low in quantity, and there is no difference in essence.

"Yes, that's the truth!" Fatty Chen finally found a breakthrough, and said with a sneer, "You people are stupid in reading, Zhan Feiyu has gained a good name for himself by doing this, and all the money of Baihuahua went to her Pocket, haha, you don’t believe me when I say you’re stupid, but you’re being played around by a little girl!”

Uh... being ridiculed by Fatty Chen, the scholars in the lobby looked a little ugly, but they couldn't find a rebuttal for a while.

"The best is greedy for profit, and the officials will take advantage of it and then get rich and engraved, and take thousands of people without limit." Zhan Feiyu hung up the book bag, and Fatty Chen was as if he was listening to the scriptures.

Zhan Feiyu straightened her body, her bun face was serious and awe-inspiring, "As the saying goes, take it from the people and use it for the people. I only take 1000 taels of silver for reading every year, and the rest of the money I get from the people. I will ask Prince Yu to pay for the disabled soldiers at the border."

As soon as this statement came out, there was an eerie silence in the lobby of Li Ji. Everyone didn't know how much money Xiangpanzi made, but the Chen family was willing to offer 5 taels to buy prescriptions, which was enough to know the profit.

Zhan Feiyu's act of absolute benevolence this time, and she used the silver for the pension money of the disabled soldiers, this is not considered to buy the morale of the army, after all, these disabled soldiers will basically return to their hometowns and become ordinary people.

After being stunned for a long while, Fatty Chen, who came back to his senses, couldn't help shouting, "Are you crazy?"

"Differences do not conspire with each other. Young Master Chen was born in a family, and he was clothed with rich clothes and food since he was a child. Do you know what it means to be a master? Do you know that when the gold and iron horse go, the horse leather shroud is returned?" Zhan Feiyu asked repeatedly, looking at Fatty Chen's face His eyes became more indifferent, "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world! This money is just a little bit of my heart for the border soldiers as a citizen of Daqing."

"You..." Fatty Chen had nothing to say when he was asked, but he was unwilling to accept it, and his face full of flesh turned red again.

"I thought about it." Zhan Feiyu suddenly laughed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his clear eyes fell on Fatty Chen, which inexplicably made his back feel cold, and he felt a sense of fear of being stared at by wild animals.

"Master Chen." Zhan Feiyu continued with a smile like a flower: "The rice grain business of the Chen family is all over the Jiangnan Road. If you lose, Master Chen, why don't you show your heart and donate all the rice grain in the Chen family's inventory to Border guards."

"No!" Fatty Chen refused without thinking, and glared at Zhan Feiyu fiercely. She went crazy and donated all of Xiang Jianzi's money, and wanted to drag herself into the water!
Fragrant pancakes make money, but the rice shop of the Chen family also makes money. The rice grain hoarded every year is more than [-] shi. A shi of high-quality polished rice sells for at least two or three taels of silver. Even coarse grains can be sold for a shi Two or three hundred texts.

Ask Fatty Chen to donate at least 10 taels of silver to the border guards. It is impossible to put a knife on his neck. After all, the rice grain hoarded by the Chen family is worth 10 taels, but the cost of purchasing is still in it, and it will be deducted after selling it all The cost is the silver earned every year.

"It seems that Young Master Chen can't afford to gamble." Zhan Feiyu smiled, as if he was sure that he would not agree.

"Damn, don't try to use aggressive tactics, I won't be fooled!" Fatty Chen looked at Zhan Feiyu contemptuously, the dead girl really has a heart, so calculating herself!
Although the Chen family's business in Nanxuan Mansion was suppressed by Zhang Zhifu, it did not hurt the root cause. As long as the Chen family is still the grand prince's niece, the Chen family's rice grain business can continue, but it has to be moved. It's just a place, avoid Nanxuan Mansion.

Although Mr. Chen is a side branch of the Chen family, he has the rice grain business in his hands, and he has some say in the Chen family. This is the fundamental reason why Fatty Chen is arrogant and domineering.

"Master Chen, it's getting late, why don't you go back first?" Uncle Li smiled and smoothed things over. He could see that Zhan Feiyu deliberately made this sky-high bet, and Fatty Chen didn't dare to accept it. Let it go.

But thinking of Zhan Feiyu donating all the money from selling fragrant pancakes, even if it wasn’t his money, the Li family’s uncle would feel heartbroken thinking about it, but Zhan Feiyu has also established a good reputation for himself, so it’s not too much loss After all, scholars value reputation, and merchants value money.

Chai Yi also persuaded in a low voice, it's meaningless to entangle Zhan Feiyu like this, but fortunately, the young master didn't suffer, Zhan Feiyu lost so much money, I'm afraid his heart will bleed.

Fatty Chen went down the stairs and planned to leave, but looking at Zhan Feiyu, who had clear but somewhat provocative eyes, Fatty Chen couldn't help but say, "Zhan Feiyu, change your bet if you have the ability! In the end, you dare not fight with me." Fight!"

"Then change the bet!" Zhan Feiyu agreed straightforwardly, which made everyone stunned, only to hear her continue: "There are 64 grids on the Go board, how about this, if you lose, Young Master Chen, the first Put one grain of rice in one grid, two grains of rice in the second grid, four grains of rice in the third grid, and so on. Each grid is double the number of the previous grid, and it is full All the grids, the rice inside is your bet, Young Master Chen, do you dare to agree?"

Although Fatty Chen is not good at playing chess, he has also played chess before. After listening to Zhan Feiyu's words, Fatty Chen quickly calculated in his mind, but his arithmetic can only understand the account books, and he will not be able to do it in the end. Not sure.

But the chessboard has only 64 squares, so he probably would have more than enough for a hundred catties of rice, so Fatty Chen agreed without even thinking about it, "Okay, let's bet on this!"

"It's hard to chase after a gentleman's words." Zhan Feiyu also agreed, but changed the subject and said: "There is no evidence for words, but words are evidence!"

Whether Chai Yi or the Li family, including the scholars present, felt that it was a bit tricky, but according to Zhan Feiyu, they thought it over and didn't notice any traps.

Although I haven't figured out how many meters it would take to fill the entire chessboard, I guess it won't be too much. Even if it's a thousand catties, Fatty Chen definitely took advantage of Zhan Feiyu's bet on not being able to participate in the government test.
