Chapter 998

Lu Bai was startled, and asked, "What kind of work can earn 310 taels? Girl, you..."

not crazy?

Gu Jinli: "Of course it's a good job."

Lu Bo: "What a good job? It's too much money."

Even if it is a robbery, it is impossible to rob more than 300 taels in one go.

Thinking of this, Lu Bo said again: "I, I don't do anything that violates the criminal law, and I still have to take the imperial examination."

Lu Bai had a righteous face, but Gu Jinli sneered: "I am also abiding by the law, okay?"

Then he said with disgust: "If you want to take the imperial examination, you are rushing to become an official, but if you look at you, you will cry and cry when you encounter problems. How can you become an official? What if you were framed by an assistant officer when you took office?" Do you just cry too?"

Lu Bai's face turned red when he was told, he lowered his head, remained silent for a while, and then said: "Once you become an official and have an official seal, it will be easier to deal with things."

Gu Jinli hehe, said ruthlessly: "Do you think being an official is just holding an official seal to order others to do things? If you think being an official is so easy, then you might as well go home and feed the pigs."

Pigs will not plot against you, you can be a swineherd at ease.

After Lu Bo heard this, he wanted to cry even more, feeling that he was extremely wronged. He worked so hard to take the imperial examination, but this female benefactor actually asked him to go back to feed the pigs?

He was chased and bitten by a pig when he was a child, and he was afraid of dying of that kind of thing.

There are people coming and going here, Gu Jinli can't stand here and talk too much, so he followed Qin Sanlang into the mule cart, and said to Lu Bai: "You can be the board of the front cart, let's go to Futai Building to talk about things."

"Ah?" Lu Bai was taken aback, looked at Er Qing who was driving, and blushed: "This, it's not very good, men and women are different."

Gu Jinli: "Then you can run behind the mule cart, there is no place for you in the carriage."

Lu Bo was wronged again, but he didn't dare to resist, he could only nod his head in agreement, obediently following behind the mule cart.

But before the mule cart could move, Yao Youqian rushed out from the silver building opposite, shouting, "Lu Bo, where do you want to go? Quit working to make money? You just want to go back to the way you were before after two days of learning." Isn't that trash?"

Yao Youqian found a new job, working as a clerk in the silver building opposite during the day, and pouring Yexiang at dawn.

When Lu Bai saw Yao Youqian, as if seeing a savior, he immediately told him the money-making work that Gu Jinli said, and finally asked, "Do you think this work is good enough?"

The implication is to ask Yao Youqian, do you think they are liars?Is it okay if I go with them?

Yao Youqian was startled, looked at the mule cart, saluted and asked, "May I ask you two distinguished guests, what kind of work can earn more than 300 taels? We are all poor people, but we can't stand the teasing of you two."

Gu Jinli said: "Even if I can earn so much money, and 300 taels of it is mine, even if I fool you, I won't fool myself. If you want to do this business, you can come to the private room on the third floor of Futai Building, if you don't want to do it Forget it, I can do it myself, it’s just a little more trouble.”

After speaking, let Erqing drive away in a mule cart.

Seeing this, Yao Youqian gritted his teeth, rushed back to the silver building and confessed his crimes, and came out and said to Lu Bai, "Come on, go to Futai Building, ten taels of silver is a lot, and you won't lose money if you go there."

They are so poor that they don't even have a tael of silver on them, so are they afraid that those two people will rob them?

Speaking of which, Lu Bai and Yao Youqian were quite pitiful. Although they passed the Tongsheng examination, their rankings were not at the top, and their family background was not good, so the wealthy households in Fucheng did not send them money.

After returning to Yujiang County, someone will give them some congratulatory gifts, but Lu Bai can't wait until he returns home, and he needs money in these two days.

Lu Bai was a man of no opinion, so he nodded and followed Yao Youqian to Futai Building.

On the way, he told about how Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang rescued him.

With a slap, Yao Youqian slapped Lu Bai on the head and scolded: "You elm-headed man, why don't you tell me quickly because of this? Since others have helped you, you should go with them. It is impossible for people who see injustice on such a road to play tricks on you. Walk around, hurry up, and make amends to the two benefactors when you arrive."

Lu Bo could only promise to do so.

The two of them ran for more than a quarter of an hour before arriving at Futai Building. Shopkeeper Hu had already received Qin Sanlang's words. After seeing them, he said, "Yao Tongsheng, please come with me."

Yao Youqian and Gu Jinan had been to Futai Building before, but shopkeeper Hu recognized him and took them directly to the private room on the third floor.

Yao Youqian apologized as soon as he entered the private room: "You two benefactors, I was really sorry earlier, I hesitated because I was afraid of being cheated."

Gu Jinli: "There is no need to talk about these, let's talk about the business."

Pointing to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, she said: "This earning job is to sell stories. I dictate, and Lu Tongsheng writes down what I say. It must be vivid and wonderful, and then take the written story to Shenghe Building." Sell ​​it, and after we get the money, we will share the money."

Writing ancient prose is too tiring, she just wants to make money, and doesn't want to do too much work.

After hearing this, Lu Bo regained his energy: "So it's such a job, so this job really makes money."

He worked in Shenghelou for two days and knew how profitable Shenghelou was, and Mr. Ke would buy stories from people at high prices in order to get exclusive stories.

But there is a requirement, that is, the story must be bloody and not plain. It is best to use real people and real events, and the price of fictional ones should be reduced.

"Let's get started." Gu Jinli was talking about the Ge family.

The Ge family wanted to push Gu Jinan out of the imperial examinations. The Ge family who used the old Gu family's affairs to harm Gu Jinan's reputation was also the young master Ge's family who bullied Lu Bai in Shenghe Building.

Young master Ge didn't pass the entrance examination for Tongsheng, and because of the unfilial things of the family members, the storytellers pointed out that life has been very bad recently.

But if he doesn't want to repent, and dares to commit crimes, let him die.

The story of the Ge family told by Gu Jinli is exactly the follow-up of the members of the Ge family who stole the public money and made the old man Ge ill.

The members of the Ge family really want to divide the family property and go crazy. They even prescribed medicine to Mr. Ge while he was sick in bed, which made Mr. Ge's condition worse. If he didn't get treated quickly, Mrs. Ge would be poisoned within two months die.

What's more, the Ge family also attacked Old Master Ge's younger sister.

This little aunt of the Ge family married in Linhe Mansion, and because she was brought up by Mrs. Ge, she respected Mrs. Ge as if she were her own father.She has a very hot temper. If the old man Ge passed away, with the temperament of the little aunt of the Ge family, she would definitely investigate the matter thoroughly. Even if nothing was found, she would blame them for not taking good care of the old man Ge and punish them.

In order to save trouble, several members of the Ge family conspired to frame the little aunt of the Ge family, saying that she had an affair with a poor scholar when she was not married, and wanted to ruin her reputation and have her divorced by her husband's family.

A woman who is divorced by her husband's family is not qualified to speak in her natal family. If the Ge family is unhappy, they can still throw her to a Taoist temple to fend for herself.

"Shameless, shameless!" Lu Bai scolded as he wrote, "How can this Ge family be like this? They are simply inferior to animals!"

Yao Youqian sneered and said: "Some of them can only read dead books, and the waste that sucks the blood of the whole family is not as good as a beast."

After Lu Bo heard this, he immediately shut up and dared not speak.

Yao Youqian asked again: "Benefactor, do you have evidence for what you said? If there is no evidence, the Ge family will sue, and Sheng Helou dare not buy this story."
