I'm a scumbag

Chapter 48 Anyway, it's an unaffordable price

This money is really not easy to earn.

By the way, scholars, are you so rich?
In memory, scholars are very poor.

How can the scholars of Yunshan Academy be so rich?
Ning Chen couldn't understand this question for the time being.

Ning Chen just regretted that he should have said 3 taels.

I ran over to bring Ning Chen a pen and paper, and asked Ning Chen to leave the upper line.

Ning Chen's calligraphy is pretty good.

After all, it was once, during the Chinese New Year, it was regarded as a reserved performance program and performed for various elders.

Ning Chen has imitated Yan style, Liu style, and Wang Xizhi's running script.

So Ning Chen's handwriting is really good.

Not to mention self-contained, but at least it can make people's eyes shine.

At this moment, the visitors and the boss are all in awe.

I saw Ning Chen wrote on the paper in willow script:

Yansuo pond willow, these five words.

"I have never seen Xiongtai's fonts before. The fonts are well-proportioned and thin, the stippling is neat and straight, the bones are strong, and the structure is tight. The only thing is that it lacks a little rhyme, as if it is imitating according to the script."

"But I have never seen the font, so it should not be an imitation."

Ning Chen took a look at this Li Ziqiu, and found that this guy was really talented.

But for a time traveler, it is absolutely impossible to admit plagiarism.

"I have a good eye. My character is indeed not perfect yet, and I am still in the stage of cultivating rhyme." Ning Chen unceremoniously turned the willow body into his own creation.

Time traveler, when you should be shameless, be shameless.

After listening to Ning Chen's words, Li Ziqiu did not doubt it: "If the word Xiongtai is mastered, you can easily enter the realm of raising characters with this word alone."

"Even if it is the realm of raising literature, it is not a problem."

"The font of Xiongtai is quite suitable for writing inscriptions. It will definitely be passed down through the ages."

……

Li Ziqiu talked non-stop for a long time, but Ning Chen just looked at himself with a smile.

Suddenly a little embarrassed: "Brother, what is the meaning of looking at me like this?"

Ning Chen said: "Are you giving cash or bank notes?"

It was exposed like this, without even a little bit of defense.

This made Li Ziqiu's face turn red.

Li Ziqiu coughed twice in embarrassment: "Brother Taiwan's Shanglian is indeed absolute. The five words not only describe the artistic conception of poetry, but also include the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, earth. Brother Taiwan is a great talent, Ziqiu Not as good."

Looking at Li Ziqiu who bowed to the ground, Ning Chen said very directly: "Take the money."

Li Ziqiu bowed again: "Brother's talent, Ziqiu admires him very much."

Ning Chen nodded: "Give me the money."

Li Ziqiu wanted to worship again, but Ning Chen directly stopped him: "No money?"

Li Ziqiu coughed twice: "Not that much."

"how many?"

Li Ziqiu stretched out two fingers.

"2000 taels is 2000 taels, I'll take it as a disadvantage."

Li Ziqiu shook his head quickly: "Not that many."

"Ten taels?"

Gritting his teeth, Ning Chen said, "200 taels is also enough, just treat it as a dedication from my family."

Li Ziqiu still shook his head: "Not that many."

"20 taels!"

Ning Chen never expected that Li Ziqiu had 20 taels, so he dared to bet 3000 taels with him.

Who gave him the courage?
Liang Jingru doesn't even have such courage.

And this indirectly answered one of Ning Chen's previous doubts.

That is, how could Li Ziqiu be so rich?

The answer is, no money.

"Which talented woman is Liang Jingru?" Li Ziqiu asked.

"It's not important." Ning Chen ignored Li Ziqiu.

After a pause, Ning Chen said to Li Ziqiu, "Okay, you've got some ideas. At least you still have 20 taels in hand."

Li Ziqiu felt even more guilty when he heard this: "Actually, the 20 taels were not on Ziqiu's body. I have already handed it over to the vegetable and wine vendors, and they have gone to buy ingredients and drinks for Ziqiu." gone."

After speaking, Li Ziqiu quickly added: "If Xiongtai wants it, Ziqiu will let someone get it back now."

Ning Chen was even laughed at by Li Ziqiu: "What, you think you are very righteous. Tell me what you think. You don't even have a tael of silver in your hand. Speaking of 3000 taels, how do you do it?" To be so righteous."

Li Ziqiu said frankly: "In Ziqiu's opinion, whether it is 300 taels or 3000 taels, it is a number that Ziqiu can't come up with. It's better to be more generous."

After hearing this, what else can Ning Chen say.

There are only three words, Juejuezi, for Li Ziqiu.

I don't have a dime, and I am playing generously with myself here.

"What does Xiongtai Juezi mean?" Li Ziqiu asked Ning Chen very studiously.

"You don't need to know, let's discuss, how do you plan to give the 3000 taels." Ning Chen has no time to be a teacher now, and Ning Chen only cares about his own 3000 taels.

If Li Ziqiu hadn't said 3000 taels earlier, Ning Chen would have felt less uncomfortable.

Now that Li Ziqiu said it, but he couldn't get it out, Ning Chen was really upset.

"Ziqiu can give it to brother, write down the IOU, and return it to brother when he has money in the future." Li Ziqiu said.

"How many days is it?" Ning Chen asked Li Ziqiu.

"As long as Ziqiu doesn't die, there will be a day to pay back." Li Ziqiu said firmly.

You are not dead, but I don't even know when I will die.

When the time comes, Ning Chen won't take advantage of Li Ziqiu.

"I see that you can't come up with so much money at any time, so let me give you a trick."

"Please enlighten me, brother." Li Ziqiu asked modestly.

Ning Chen said to Li Ziqiu: "Later, you can put up a sign outside and offer a set meal of 20 taels for the dishes I just ordered.

Then let me explain that anyone who writes this second line will give 1000 taels of silver as a gift.Unfortunately, you only need to spend 20 taels, and you can buy the 20 taels package.

In this way, you only need 150 people, and you can make up the 3000 taels. "

After hearing Ning Chen's words, Li Ziqiu immediately expressed his objection: "This is a matter of learning, how can we let those yellow and white things be tarnished. What's more, the few dishes and drinks that Xiongtai ordered are only half a tael of silver." enough."

Ning Chen was really laughed at by Li Ziqiu: "How the hell do you know that this is worth half a tael. Then what did you think when you asked for 300 taels?"

"Ziqiu thought, asking for 100 taels is a high price, and asking for 300 taels is also a high price. It's better to ask for a little higher, because no one will pay anyway." Li Ziqiu explained it with his own logic.

This is really a talent.

Resisting the urge to beat up Li Ziqiu, Ning Chen said to Li Ziqiu: "You think 20 taels is an insult to gentleness.

Then you lied to me, 3000 taels?
You still have to force me to not pay back the 3000 taels, is that what a scholar should do?

You sell 20 taels, at least others get something.

What have I got here?Which do you think is worse? "

"Ziqiu will find a way to pay back the 3000 taels, but Ziqiu will not do such deceitful things." Li Ziqiu said resolutely.

Ning Chen sneered: "You think it's not cheating me, it's cheating a lot of people.

Since you think so, then I take back this couplet, and you don't have to give the money.

If I find out that my couplets appear in your store, I will make your plagiarism public. "

"Brother, I bought this couplet for 3000 taels." Li Ziqiu became anxious when he heard that Ning Chen was going to take back the couplet.

Ning Chen's couplet can definitely be regarded as the eternal absolute.

Li Ziqiu can be sure that if this couplet is hung up, his small shop will be full of friends.

At that time, Li Ziqiu will definitely meet many like-minded people with real talents and knowledge.

At the same time, Li Ziqiu's talent and reputation will inevitably increase further. If he is accepted as a disciple by that great Confucian, Li Ziqiu will be regarded as outstanding.

"Of course you can buy the couplet for 3000 taels, but what about the money?" Ning Chen stretched out his hand and asked.

"This……"

Looking at Li Ziqiu with an anxious face, Ning Chen said persuasively: "Looking at you, you should be very interested in my couplet.

What are you going to do, I can probably guess some.

So the question is very simple, you want a name and I want money, the two of us can be regarded as a cooperative relationship.

At that time, you only need to say that I am running for your talent, and think that your place is more suitable for this eternal absolute.

So put this couplet here with you.

At that time, no one will say that you are accumulating money, at most they will say that I am greedy for money.

You have nothing to lose, I have got money, and everyone is happy. "

Li Ziqiu was really moved after hearing Ning Chen's remarks.

"Since Xiongtai values ​​Ziqiu's talent so much, Ziqiu will bear the blame for Xiongtai." Li Ziqiu finally made up his mind to cooperate with Ning Chen.

Ning Chen was too lazy to satirize Li Ziqiu's hypocrisy, anyway, his purpose was to ask for money.

"Go and hang up my couplet, and bring up all the dishes I ordered by the way. How to publicize the rest is up to you." Ning Chen said to Li Ziqiu.

Li Ziqiu immediately ordered Xiaoer to take off his previous couplet and put on Ning Chen's, and put a piece of cloth on it, making it quite ceremonial.

Then I made another sign and placed it in a conspicuous position at the door.

The location of Li Ziqiu's store is still okay, and now there is such a high-profile sign.

It immediately attracted many people to watch.

Li Ziqiu is relatively well-known in this street, so many people entered the store for a while to see this eternal absolute.

Soon the shop was full of people.

Li Ziqiu had sixteen tables here, and he sat alone at one, and there were fifteen more.

This is 300 taels of silver.

Ning Chen suddenly realized that it seems that earning money from scholars is quite easy, as long as you are talented, he can give you his money.

　It's a little early today, and there will be an update in the evening, and the number of words today is definitely more than yesterday. Finally, I ask for favorites, follow-ups, recommendations, and monthly tickets. I don't dare to think about rewarding this for the time being. . .
