Literati Sanctification

Chapter 148
Competition, Caitou, no one knows better than him the meaning of these words from Heng Xiulin's mouth. If the rich man said these words, it means that someone is going to be tricked. This is already It's the same words used by the rich man.

Once there is a competition, there must be a lottery, otherwise, he will not easily compete, this is like his title, rich man.

At this time, Ling Yueliu also looked at Heng Xiulin with some helplessness. This talented man is good at everything. What he said before, together with poetry, is used to cultivate sentiment and benefit the people. She heard these words very well. She has feelings, and she also thinks that this is what Heng Xiulin himself is after.

But right now, in Heng Xiulin's competition, he just wants to get a lot of money. This talent is really a little too fond of money. However, they are all talented people with some eccentricities, and they behave differently from ordinary people. Right now, It must be the character of Mr. Heng, Ling Yueliu thought to herself.

"Cai Tou, what Cai Tou do you want?"

After hearing the words, Hou Zeyu looked at Heng Xiulin coldly, and asked, he didn't care about what Heng Yanlin said, he wanted some prizes, because he didn't think Heng Xiulin could win he.

"You have something on you, you can take it out, if I can see it, then I agree."

Hearing the words, Heng Xiulin raised his eyebrows directly, and then said, he didn't know what the other party had on him, so if he wanted to speak, he really didn't know what to ask for.

"My folding fan is the mountains and rivers drawn by the painter himself with a brush. I think it's enough to be the prize?"

Then Zeyu listened to Heng Xiulin's words, lowered his head and pondered for a while, then held the folding fan in his hand, and said to Heng Xiulin, Heng Xiulin heard the words, looked up, and saw a line drawn on the folding fan The extremely majestic river is on it, with extraordinary momentum, and a golden thread is embroidered around it, which is extremely luxurious.

Seeing this, Heng Xiulin's eyes immediately lit up. If this painting is genuine, it would be worth a lot, but Heng Xiulin didn't have much research on these, so he raised his head, looked at the people around him, and thought I want to ask if this folding fan is genuine.

"It has been rumored for a long time that the folding fan in Hou Zeyu's hand was left by the painting sanctuary. Looking at its shape now, I think there is nothing wrong with it. It should be the real thing."

Mu Guanyu on the side seemed to know what Heng Xiulin wanted to ask, and without waiting for Heng Xiulin to speak, he directly explained to Heng Xiulin that he had the previous experience, so now he naturally knows , what Heng Xiulin wants to do next.

It's just that although he has a lot of confidence in Heng Xiulin, the opponent is a talented person from Jingguo, and he doesn't know whether Heng Xiulin can beat him, Mu Guanyu thought with some worry in his heart.

Although he has some grievances with Heng Xiulin, compared to Jingguo's talented scholars, this kind of grievance seems a little insignificant. If possible, he absolutely hopes that Heng Xiulin can beat the other party.

"That's fine, let's use your folding fan as a prize."

Hearing Mu Guanyu's words, Heng Xiulin nodded directly. The other party, as a genius of Jingguo, came all the way here, so he would not be able to fool him with a handful of fake things. If he really fooled him, When he goes back, he must be humiliated.

"Since you are satisfied with my lottery, now take out your lottery, and I want to see if it can be compared with mine."

After hearing what Heng Xiulin said, Zeyu snorted coldly, then stared at Heng Xiulin, and said sinisterly, his folding fan is worth 10 taels, so whether the other party can take it out He didn't really believe in the same lottery.

Therefore, he specially took out this folding fan in order to be able to humiliate the other party on it, because what Heng Xiulin said earlier really angered him, even if the competition has not started yet, he is already I couldn't help it, I wanted to ridicule the other party first.

"Xiaoyu."

Hearing what Hou Zeyu said, Heng Xiulin snapped his fingers, and said to Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu was also extremely clever, after hearing what his young master said, he directly opened his outer pocket, revealing the densely packed clothes inside. bank note.

It's just a rough count, and there are about a million taels of silver. All the talents, seeing such a scene, immediately twitched the corners of their mouths, and looked at Heng Xiulin with a strange look in their eyes.

What kind of talent is this, who actually carries a million taels of silver bills with him, so he is not afraid of being robbed?Or, this talented man is extremely rich, so he carries nearly a million taels of silver with him?
Seeing such a scene, Zeyu was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He didn't expect that Heng Xiulin would carry so much silver on him.

Originally, he thought that seeing the other party's clothes, he didn't have much valuable things on him, and it would be a dream to compare him with this folding fan, but he never imagined that the other party carried such a huge amount of silver on him.

"Tell me, how much is your folding fan worth? If I lose at that time, I will pay you in taels of silver."

Heng Xiulin waved his hand, and said to Hou Zeyu very proudly, the talented scholars at the side thought he was extremely rich, but only he knew that this was all his net worth.

Originally, these silver taels were to be kept at home, but Xiaoyu was a little worried about this. After all, it was a million taels of silver. If there was a mistake and a thief broke into the house, all the silver taels would be gone by then.

Therefore, Xiaoyu decided to take all these silver taels with her, so as not to lose them when she got them. In order to prevent them from falling off, she also sewed a pocket with lines on it. If she didn't untie it herself, It will take a long time for outsiders to unlock it.

Therefore, in order to preserve these silver taels, Xiaoyu also spent a lot of thought.

"My folding fan is worth 80 taels of silver, and there is no market for it. Are you satisfied with this price?"

Hou Zeyu looked at Xiaoyu's bag full of silver, and a look of greed flashed in his eyes. As a literati, he also needs to spend a lot of money. Spend countless.

If you are invited by friends on weekdays, you will also need money when you go out to the party, and the cost here is countless, so naturally no one does not want these money.

His folding fan is naturally not so expensive, but it is about the same. In order to earn more money, he naturally raised it a little bit.

But in Gao, he didn't dare. After all, there are so many other parties present, bullying the other party does not know how to do it, that basically does not exist. If he really bids an extremely high price, I am afraid that some talented people will jump out. Then contradict him.

So he accepted it when he knew it was good, and he just quoted a little more price.

The gifted scholars on the side frowned slightly when they heard this. Although they felt that the price was a bit higher, it was still a little unclear if this kind of thing had not been put up for auction.

So he just shook his head, didn't say anything, if there's more, then it's more, anyway, seeing that Heng Xiulin also seems to be extremely rich, he probably won't be short of such a small amount of money.

"Okay, according to your words," Heng Xiulin also nodded and said, seeing that the literati on the side didn't make sense of the price, but basically, Heng Xiulin didn't care much.

Since he proposed the bet, he naturally didn't think there was a possibility of losing.

"What do you want to bet on, poetry or couplets, or something else?"

Heng Xiulin asked Hou Zeyu, "It's better to ask the other party about this kind of thing, so as not to have an excuse because it was customized by him, and retort that the bet is invalid or something."

"Compared to poetry, whoever has the highest literary spirit wins."

When Hou Zeyu heard the words, he said directly that he originally wanted to compare Qixi poems because he already had some drafts in his heart, but these Qixi poems were used to deal with Zeng Shaosheng and Ling Yueliu.

If it is used with this talented man now, what kind of poems should be used when facing the empress Zeng Shaosheng?
So at the moment, Hou Zeyu is determined, and directly evaluates the outcome of this time based on the level of literary style of the poems. In his opinion, it is absolutely impossible for Heng Xiulin to beat them with this.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's go together, so as not to lose at some point and have another excuse, saying that the bet doesn't count."

Heng Xiulin nodded, then raised his head slightly, and said to the talents of Jingguo, it is a comparison with one, and it is also a comparison with all of them. In this way, it is better to let them all be together.

"Rampant! So arrogant, do you think there is no one in Jingguo?"

"Damn you, you Jiang Guo's talents, until now, no one has been able to beat me and others by a few points. Now that one person appears, you want to suppress us all?"

The gifted scholars of Jingguo immediately curled their lips when they heard Heng Xiulin's words, and then said angrily, obviously they were extremely dissatisfied with Heng Xiulin in their hearts.

"Let's stop talking nonsense, you just wait until you start together. As long as anyone's talent can surpass me, you will be considered a winner. At that time, 80 taels of silver will be given with both hands."

Heng Xiulin waved his hand directly, and then said, he really didn't think that these people's talent could surpass him.

"Hmph, since that's the case, then it will be as you wish. Friends, we will write down poems together, and let this person see how much talent we have in Jingguo."

Hou Zeyu looked at Heng Xiulin's extremely confident face, immediately snorted coldly, then turned his head and spoke to those talented scholars.

Didn't he want to challenge all of them? Let him see that he alone can't compare to the talents of his own country!
