Chapter 47
After leaving the county government, Wei Yi brought two guards to the Sword Casting Division.
Sign up for the fifth-rank swordsmith assessment.
"Fifth grade swordsmith assessment?" Hearing Wei Yi's words, the official Hou Dong was full of surprise.
"That's right, I want to directly participate in the fifth-rank swordsmith assessment!" Wei Yi said firmly.
"You're not kidding, are you? You have just passed the Ninth-Rank Swordsmith Examination, and you are about to take the Fifth-Rank Examination?" Hou Dong still couldn't believe it.
After all, the difference between the ninth rank and the fifth rank is not a seventh rank, but a huge watershed.
It would be easy for ordinary swordsmiths to advance from rank nine to rank seven.
But from the seventh rank to the fifth rank, it has blocked the gap of an unknown number of people.
"I want to try it!" Wei Yi didn't explain much, he put 100 taels of silver on the table.
"Okay!" Hou Dong didn't say anything more, after all, this is his freedom.
Even if he couldn't understand it in his heart, he even felt that Wei Yi was a little swollen.
Thinking that he has become a ninth-rank swordsmith with top grades, the swords he forges are excellent in performance and are sought after.
Then I felt that I was really talented and could directly surpass the seventh rank and hit the level of the fifth rank.
But of course he couldn't express it.
After all, there are some truths that can only be understood by oneself through setbacks.
And experiencing failure is sometimes a way to help a person better understand himself and find himself again.
Wei Yi is still young, so he should experience some failures to let him understand some truths.
Hou Dong helped Wei Yi register for the assessment, and also recorded the materials Wei Yi needed.
Since there is no need for any invigilator this time, Wei Yi can come to the exam at any time.
"Then the day after tomorrow!" Wei Yi knew that the county government would hold a hearing on the Meng family's case tomorrow.
He needs to help the Meng family get through the difficulties first, and then go to the assessment.
"Okay, yes!" Hou Dong said.
……
The next morning, the county government officially opened the hearing of Xiangmanlou's case.
There were also many onlookers outside the hall.
Some of them are purely watching the excitement, and the other part are people who care about Xiangmanlou's case.
Wei Yi, Du Yujiang, Guo Pixiu, and the neighbors, relatives and friends of the Meng family also came to the scene.
The trial process of the case is not complicated, or even very simple.
After the county government's investigation yesterday, it has been determined that the poisonous mushroom accident was caused by Chef Zhang Xing of Xiangmanlou.
This person has already confessed, saying that in order to make money, he switched the mushrooms from the restaurant and used them as good ones.
Unexpectedly, it was mixed with poisonous mushrooms.
This person has committed suicide in prison, and the case is basically clear.
So others, etc. can be acquitted.
But Meng Shuilian, as the shopkeeper of Xiangmanlou, naturally has to bear certain responsibilities and needs to pay compensation to the deceased.
The family of the deceased asked for a total of 1000 taels of silver in compensation.
In the end, the county magistrate ordered Meng Shuilian to pay 100 taels of silver per person, a total of 500 taels.
So far, the case was over and Meng Shuilian was released directly.
Order to raise all the silver taels within three days to compensate the family members of the deceased.
At the end of the trial, many onlookers dispersed.
Du Yujiang also left first.
After Meng Shuilian walked out of the courtroom, she went straight to Wei Yi, gave a grateful salute and said, "Young Master Wei, thank you for your help!"
She knew very well that the successful conclusion of this case must be due to Wei Yi's help.
"You're welcome, let's go, let's go back together." Wei Yi said.
But at this moment, Guo Pixiu approached with a smile and said, "Brother Wei, shopkeeper Meng, my carriage is at the door, let me take you back home!"
"Alright!" Wei Yi stopped being polite to Guo Pixiu, after all, he helped a lot this time.
I just stayed with Guo Pixiu for lunch at noon today, so I would like to thank him very much.
Seeing that Wei Yi agreed, Guo Pixiu suddenly smiled, turned around and shouted: "Speak and learn to sing."
As soon as these words came out, Wei Yi almost crossed the stage.
"Here! Young Master, we are here!"
Before Guo Pixiu finished his sentence, the four followers immediately flashed out from the crowd.
"Hurry up and bring the carriage over!" Guo Pixiu shouted.
"Okay!" The four quickly ran out.
"Mr. Guo, those four followers of yours are called... Shuo Xue Dou Sing?" Wei Yi asked curiously.
"Yes, I gave it to you. It's a very elegant name!" Guo Pixiu said with a proud face.
"Well, it's not bad, it's refined and popular!" Wei Yi smiled meaningfully.
He really doubted whether the head of the Deyun gang was Degang.
Is there a deputy gang leader surnamed Yu?
"Brother Wei, shopkeeper Meng please!"
Wei Yi and Meng Shuilian followed Guo Pixiu and got into the carriage together.
As the carriage left the county government office, Wei Yi looked at Meng Shuilian, who was still preoccupied, and pondered for a while.
Immediately said: "Meng shopkeeper, you don't have to worry about the compensation, go to my place later to get 500 taels of silver for emergency."
"No, no, no need, I'll figure it out on my own, if I really can't sell the house, I should, I should be able to get it all together..."
"You don't have to be polite. My Wei family was in trouble back then. Thanks to your help, now it's our turn to repay the favor. Besides, 500 taels of silver is nothing more than forging a few more swords for me." Yi said sincerely.
"That's right, shopkeeper Meng, brother Wei is now the most famous ninth-rank swordsmith in the city, this amount of money is nothing to him, so you don't have to be polite!" Guo Pixiu couldn't help but help road.
"Okay, but don't worry, I will definitely return it to you as soon as possible!" Meng Shuilian said.
"Okay!" Wei Yi smiled, but changed the topic, "But the Wan family should repay the money, and they should repay ten times and a hundred times!"
"Well said, brother Wei, what you said is too good. That's right, the Wan family should pay it back. To be honest, you really can't bear this matter like this. The Wan family is simply deceiving people too much.
But now you are going to fight against the Wan family, and it seems a bit weak, but if you add me, then there will be no problem at all! "Guo Pixiu said excitedly, patting his chest.
Hearing what Guo Pixiu said, Wei Yi was a little surprised.
If you say something angry yourself, why is this guy so excited.
"What are you doing?" Wei Yi looked at Guo Pixiu in surprise and asked.
"Let's open a restaurant together, kill them Wanjia, how popular your Xiangmanlou is, your roast chicken is the best in Qingzhou City, not to mention your Lansheng wine, I Dad still talks about it from time to time.
If we join hands to open a restaurant, with your Meng family's craftsmanship, Brother Wei's identity and financial resources as a swordsmith, and my Guo family's power, I don't believe that we can't beat the Wan family.
At that time, Lansheng Wine will be back on the market, and it will definitely be able to reproduce the glory of the year! " Guo Pixiu said happily.
Hearing Guo Pixiu's words, Wei Yi was a little surprised, he didn't expect Guo Pixiu to have such an idea.
It coincided with myself.
But thinking about it, it might not be a good thing if we can join forces with the Guo family.
At least in the current situation, it is indeed a good choice.
After all, the Guo family is one of the three major gangs in the city, with many warriors.
It is also a force that should not be underestimated in the city, even the Wan family should be wary of it.
"You actually went with me!" Wei Yi said with a smile.
"Really, haha, it seems that heroes see the same thing. I knew Brother Wei definitely had great ambitions. How about it, let's join hands and do something great." Guo Pixiu looked expectantly. With Wei Yi and Meng Shuilian.
