Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 253 Master Shi
Hua Yuanquan is a "spender of wronged money" who makes money but spends countless money. When he sees "treasures" like "The Picture of Wind and Rain Returning to the Boat", he finds it new and wants to spend money to buy it.

But Wu Qing showed embarrassment: "This...isn't that good. It took a lot of effort to find this treasure of mine. It took me seven or eight days of talking to the seller before I persuaded him. He has to change hands. I intend to leave this treasure to my son for generations."

Hua Yuanquan persuaded Wu Qing earnestly: "Mr. Wu, don't you have a short amount of money on hand? If you are a majestic son of the governor of Beizhili, if you don't even have money for a drink of flower wine, you will be degraded! Literati and poets like us often say that a gentleman has the beauty of walnut kernels. If you sell this painting to me, it means that you gave me walnut kernels and become a gentleman, and you can earn [-] silver. This is hello, everyone Good thing wow."

He Liu was taken aback for a moment: "The beauty of walnut kernels"?After a while, he realized that Hua Yuanquan wanted to say: "A gentleman has the beauty of an adult."

Wu Qing gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it! Who made us friends? You like my treasure because you think highly of me! 11 taels of silver is 11 taels of silver! This "The Picture of Returning the Boat through Wind and Rain" will belong to the second master Hua in the future." Already!"

Hua Yuanquan was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly ordered the old housekeeper to go to the cashier to get the bank notes.

The old housekeeper showed embarrassment: "Second Master, 11 silver is not a small amount, should you think about it again?"

Hua Yuanquan scolded angrily: "You old man, if you are told to get the banknotes, just go get them! I have such a big family business, why spend 11 taels to buy a painting?"

After all, Huayuanquan is the head of the family.The old butler had no choice but to leave the tea pavilion to get the money.

Not long after, the old butler returned to the tea pavilion with a small wooden box.Inside the wooden box is a stack of banknotes.

Hua Yuanquan pushed the silver bill in front of Wu Qing: "Mr. Wu, this wooden box contains 10 taels of silver bills. This is 11 taels of silver bills in my hand. There are a total of [-] taels of silver bills. Please count them carefully."

Wu Qing directly gave the wooden box to the servant he brought, and he said with a wry smile: "No need to count! Erye Hua is famous for being a cheerful person, and he always keeps his promises, how could he short my money?" ?”

He Liu watched coldly.This Wu Qing traded a worthless broken painting for 11 taels of silver from Huayuanquan.After deducting the 1 taels lost to Huayuanquan at the gaming table, a total of [-] silver was cheated.Why does a son of an official like Wu Qing have such a hobby?

He Liu recalled how the second son of Xu Danxin's family in Taichang Temple went to Caishikou to steal cabbage two years ago.

Could it be that the rich men are all full of food, so what fun can they get from doing such indecent things?
The treasure game is over, everyone disperses and goes home.

Sitting on the sedan chair, Wu Qing hummed Xipi triumphantly: "I was standing on the city tower, looking at the mountain scenery, and I could hear the chaos outside the city. The flags were flying, but it turned out that they were soldiers sent by Sima..."

Forty soldiers of the governor's yamen escorted the sedan chair to the governor's yamen.Suddenly, two people appeared in front of the sedan chair.One of these two is "Chiliba" Li Zipian, and the other is "Old Servant" He Liu.

The leader of the hundred households said angrily: "Who are you? How dare you block the sedan chair of the governor of Zhili?"

"Chiliba" Li Zipian shouted: "Hold the oil, get off the sedan chair, I have a few words to tell you!"

Wu Qing heard the words in the sedan chair and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair.He walked up to Li Zipian and asked, "Isn't this Master Chilibachi? Why, what can you do with me?"

Li Zipian smiled, and said with a Chinese accent: "My friend, you did a good job 'playing with lotus seeds' just now!"

Wu Qing's complexion changed immediately when he heard the words "playing with lotus seeds".

Playing lotus seeds is a jargon in Qianmen, which refers to cheating and selling worthless things to prey at high prices.

Wu Qing said: "Brother's station is in the firewood pile? What's the idea?"

What Wu Qing said was the slang of Qianmen, he was asking Li Zipian: "Are you a member of Qianmen? What is your seniority?"

Qianmen is one of the eight outer gates, which have existed since ancient times.Today, there are not 1 but [-] thousand disciples in the world.Everyone has their own masters, and it is common for them not to know each other.

Wu Qing is a wealthy son born with a golden spoon in his mouth.The family has a father who is the governor, a virtuous wife, and a sensible young son.Wealthy.Nothing is missing.The more this kind of person, the more boring they are on weekdays.They are willing to do some thrilling things as entertainment.

Wu Qing went to visit Daming Lake in Jinan Prefecture in his early years. By chance, he worshiped under a man from a thousand families and learned some thousand skills.These years, when he was bored, he liked to use thousands of tricks to deceive people for fun.

Li Zipian replied: "Light a fire in the pile of firewood, single and double ideas, flat characters."

Li Zipian's reply was to the effect that: I am from the middle-level generation of Qianmen.

Hearing this, Wu Qing cupped his hands: "Oh my God, this junior is an auspicious word. According to your seniority, I want to call you Shigong! Let's go to Xingchunlou, let's drink!"

Turning around, Wu Qing ordered the soldiers: "I met a friend here. You go back to the mansion first, and I will go to Xingchun Building with this friend to drink."

The "old servant" He Liu was overjoyed when he heard this!If the more than 40 soldiers of the governor's yamen withdraw, he can kidnap Wu Qing at any time!If a son like Wu Qing falls into his hands and suffers all kinds of severe punishments from Jin Yiwei, I'm afraid he won't call out all the dirty deeds of his father Wu Shujian.

Unexpectedly, the leading soldiers and hundreds of households cupped their hands and said: "My lord, the governor gave the last general a death order. I must protect you every step of the way. If we go back to the governor's office first, I'm afraid we will be punished by military law." .”

Wu Qing was a little impatient: "Following my butt all day like a bug, I'm so annoying to death. Okay, then you all come to Xingchun Tower."

He Liu felt a little disappointed when he heard that.

Going up to Xingchun Building, more than 40 personal soldiers cleared the second floor first, and stood guarding at the door of the private room of Chunzihao.

Li Zipian, He Liu, and Wu Qing entered the elegant room.Not long after, Xiao Er served the food and wine.

Wu Qing asked tentatively: "Dare to ask Master's honorable name?"

Li Zipian laughed and said: "You are really a junior with auspicious characters. How come you forgot, our Qianmen are the most taboo to ask the real names of fellow disciples!"

Wu Qing said: "It's the younger generation who is being abrupt. By the way, you are a senior of the ordinary generation, so I don't know who your teacher is?"

Wu Qing was very cautious, he was beating around the bush to determine whether Li Zipian's identity as a member of Qianmen was credible.

Li Zipian said: "My master, Qianmen, will carry the rudder, and Zhou Yi will handle it!"

Wu Qing exclaimed: "It turns out that he is the direct disciple of the head of the sect! By the way, it is said that the old man has a senior disciple. Which yamen does he work for?"

Li Zipian smiled and said: "Mr. Wu is testing me! The eldest disciple of our head is named Li Zipian. That is my elder brother! He is now working as an errand in Jinyiwei North Town Fusi! He is No. 11 in the Thirteenth Taibao. Top [-]! My master now relies on the blessing of my elder brother to retire safely in the capital."
