Chapter 126 Don't Lose Too Fast
The back residence of the Zhao Mansion.

An elegant gazebo is located on the north side, surrounded by flowers in full bloom, and there is a gurgling stream under the gazebo.

Zhao Yuanwai and Niu Fugui sat at the table drinking tea. Various desserts and fruits were placed on the stone table, which was leisurely and cozy.

Gently stroking the goatee, Zhao Yuanwai jokingly said: "I said old cow, you don't have the drive you had when you were young, and you don't want to deal with a woman."

Niu Fugui snorted coldly with his nostrils upturned and said: "You know what a fart, I hired a supervising army to deal with her before, but I couldn't catch her, so you still want to get things done with your few low-spirited servants?"

Member Zhao sneered, not paying attention to his words at all, "What do you know, she was protected by the county magistrate before, but now that the magistrate has been promoted and left, what else can she rely on? understand."

"Hehe." Niu Fugui said with a half-smile: "Then let's make a bet, if you win, my emerald jade will be yours as you wish; if you lose, your blue and white glazed twin bottles will be yours!" It's mine!"

Zhao Yuanwai's eyes lit up when he heard this, he has been greedy for wealth and wealth for a long time.

"Ok, deal!"

The bet was finalized, and Niu Fugui showed a wicked smile like an old fox.

Two wealthy businessmen from Changle County were leisurely drinking tea, and the housekeeper hurried over.

"Master, Feng Si is back?"

Member Zhao raised his eyelids, immediately put down the teacup and said, "What about others? Why don't you come and see me yourself?"

The housekeeper paused and said, "He can't walk now, is he lying in the courtyard crying?"

"What?" Zhao Yuanwai had an ominous premonition in his heart, feeling that his blue and white glazed twin vases were going away from him.

"Go, go and see!"

Zhao Yuanwai got up angrily, walking vigorously in his sixtieth year.

Niu Fugui laughed and followed behind, winning this bet was too easy.

The senior member of the Zhao family, the servant Feng Si lay on the ground, his buttocks were beaten to pieces, and the other servants were not much better, each of them was almost inhumane.

Zhao Yuanwai rushed over to see their virtues, and knew that the matter was messed up. He raised his foot and kicked Feng Si's ass fiercely.

"Trash! Can't even handle a woman!"

Feng Si let out a scream and cried, "My lord, I really don't blame me for this matter. She is as strong as a cow, and the government is also looking at her, and the little one can't help it!"

Niu Fugui said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, don't get angry. If you get angry, your health will be bad. Otherwise, hurry up and send someone to bring the pair of twin bottles, so I can have fun again."

Veins twitched on Zhao Yuanwai's forehead, he turned his head and pulled Niu Fugui aside, "Brother Niu, let's not talk about the bet for now, how can you still laugh now, if you can't get the perfume formula, you know How much loss is this for us?"

Niu Fugui gave him an annoyed sideways glance, this little old man was planning to play tricks.

"Since you can't come hard, let's go soft. After all, she is a woman, how many perfumes can she make? If you cooperate with us, we can give her a share. She will take the money while lying down. No one can do it. Reject." Niu Fugui slowly came up with an idea.

Member Zhao was taken aback for a while, "But after we found out the quarrel, we came to make peace again. Is this justified?"

"Then it depends on your sincerity. Anyway, I didn't send the person, so I can't control it." Niu Fugui copied it by hand in his sleeve, looking like a hob.

His eyes flickered and he thought for a while, then Zhao Yuanwai made a decision in his heart, "Then let's do this!"

……

Gongyuan.

On the bulletin board in front of the door, there was a happy announcement in black letters on a red background, with the names of those who passed the provincial examination written on it.

Li He, a scholar from Hexi Village, tapped his head and head, but he couldn't help feeling a little downcast when he didn't see his name.

"Excuse me."

A thick voice came from behind, and Li He subconsciously turned his body sideways, but when he turned his head and saw Zhao Shun, sarcasm appeared in his eyes.

"You must be eighteen. You haven't had it for so many years, and you certainly haven't had it this time, so don't squeeze in to watch the excitement."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately burst into laughter.

Yan Chongluan walked over from behind unhurriedly, half-closed his eyes and looked at the notice board, and put his hand on Zhao Shun's shoulder with a smile.

"Yo, brother Zhao, you are actually the top of the list."

As soon as the words fell, the laughter stopped, and the originally bustling bulletin board became audible.

Li He looked at No.1 incredulously, and there was the word 'Zhao Tieshu' written on it. He felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a dead fly.

Zhao Shun raised the corners of his lips lightly, and he said loudly, "Mr. Feng said: A person cannot be judged by his appearance, and sea water cannot be measured. Why don't you understand such a simple truth, and the truth of a sage can't be done without a pig's belly?"

Li He's face was as waxy, and he groaned twice and said: "What's so great, it's because I have studied for a few more years. If I reach your age, I will definitely be at the top of the list."

Yan Chongluan glanced at him with a smile, "Your Excellency speaks loudly. If I remember correctly, your name is Li He, right? It seems that your name is not on the list of Tongsheng. With such dull aptitude, how dare you Speaking wild words?"

Yan Chongluan directly exposed his background, which made Li He's face turn red. He became angry and squeezed out of the crowd, saying: "This is an accident, an accident!"

Zhao Shun chuckled lightly, resumed his unsmiling and serious appearance, and strode towards the east with big strides.

Yan Chongluan let out an 'ah', and immediately followed, he hurriedly said: "Brother Zhao, it's fate that we met by chance, and I don't have any acquaintances in Changle County, why don't I treat you to dinner, how about you accompany me for a drink! "

Zhao Shun paused, thought for a while and said, "Thank you just now, but my wife has encountered some troubles recently, I have to guard her, let's wait another day for the drinking."

Hearing that he has something to do, Yan Chongluan can't force it, the rich man said a little lonely: "Okay, okay, you must come and find me when you have free time, I'm at the Baiyun Inn next to the county government."

"must."

In the small courtyard of the house, Shen Xian rested his chin and looked at the invitation letter on the stone table, beside the invitation letter was a tray of silver, a total of 100 taels.

Zhao Shun pushed the door open and came in, Shen Xian quickly waved to her, "Msister, come quickly."

Looking at the silver on the stone table, Zhao Shun showed surprise, "Who sent this?"

Shen Xian pursed his lips and said: "Yesterday, the troublemaker sent it with an invitation card, inviting us to have dinner at Zuiyunlou, in order to settle the suspicion."

Zhao Shun picked up the invitation card, looked at it, and said with a sneer, "I'm afraid it's not true to explain the suspicion, but to seek the formula."

"I think so too, so should I go to the Zuiyun Building or not?" Shen Xian dragged his chubby face again, with a look of confusion.

Zhao Shun frowned and thought deeply, "About the perfume, how does the lady plan?"
