Chapter 54
On the stage, Han Wei answered six questions correctly in a row, which attracted bursts of praise from the onlookers.

"Fortunately, I am a student of the Imperial College, with extraordinary knowledge. I wonder if I can pass the customs?"

"I find it difficult. So far, only one person has answered nine questions correctly. He failed on the last question and failed to collect the reward."

"But I've earned 11 taels for answering six questions correctly, which is not bad."

The owner of the colorful shed is a middle-aged man, dressed as a writer, and said with a smile: "This little brother, are you still going to answer the questions?"

"Continue." Han Wei said confidently.

"Then please ask me to draw a question." The stall owner smiled.

The titles of the colorful booth were all hung on a shelf, with nine floors in total. Han Wei selected on the seventh floor for a while, then took off a purse containing the titles and handed it to the stall owner.

After the stall owner opened it, he read aloud: "The rabbit invites the tiger to eat, shoot one idiom."

After reading, turn over the hourglass on the table.

The people in the audience started talking quietly after hearing the topic, but they had no clue.

Han Wei frowned slightly. He thought about it for a long time but never thought of the idioms related to rabbits and tigers.

Sun Hao looked at Yuan Wenshao and Liu Lei and asked, "Have you figured out the answer?"

Liu Lei shrugged his shoulders and said, "How can I do this? If you hadn't clamored to come, I wouldn't have come to this kind of place."

"It should be more than enough food for free." Yuan Wenshao said in a low voice.

"What does this have to do with tigers and rabbits?" Sun Hao asked curiously.

"Among the twelve zodiac signs, the tiger and the rabbit, and the rabbit invites the tiger. Isn't that just eating the food?" Yuan Wenshao explained.

"Wow, second cousin, you are so awesome." Chen Wen exclaimed.

Although the crowd was discussing, they all lowered their voices. When Chen Wen shouted, everyone around looked over.

Even Han Wei, who was thinking hard in the stands, heard the sound and looked over.

When he saw Yuan Wenshao and the others, his expression changed slightly, but he recovered quickly.

At first, he thought that Yuan Wenshao and the others were here to take revenge on him, but after thinking about it carefully, he found it unlikely.

"It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia." Han Wei muttered.

After about an hour or so, the stall owner saw that the sand in the hourglass had flowed out, and said with a smile: "This little brother, time, failed to answer the question."

"It's okay, I wonder what the answer is?" Han Wei asked.

To him, it doesn't matter whether he has a bonus or not, as long as he can make a name for himself.

Answering six questions correctly is considered a good grade.

"The answer to the riddle is that you can't even answer such a simple question, tsk tsk tsk."

Before the stall owner could speak, Sun Hao mocked.

Many people have a sudden look on their faces after hearing the words and thinking about it for a while.

Riddles are like this. Once you know the answer, you will understand it after a little thought.

There were also a few people with indifferent faces. They had already guessed the answer to the riddle before, but it was difficult for them to say it because Han Wei was guessing the riddle on stage.

Han Wei said with an ugly face: "I just didn't think of it in a hurry. If you have the ability, come on stage and try it out. See if you can answer the six questions correctly."

"Just come..."

Seeing that Sun Hao was about to agree, Yuan Wenshao quickly pulled him and shook his head slightly at him.

"Why don't you dare?" Seeing this scene, Han Wei sneered and said, "Don't bark if you don't dare, it's just annoying people for nothing."

"You..." Sun Hao couldn't bear this, and he opened his mouth to curse.

Yuan Wenshao patted him on the shoulder, looked at Han Wei and said coldly, "What if we can answer the six questions correctly?"

Seeing that Yuan Wenshao was so confident, Han Wei felt a little unsure. He rolled his eyes and said, "Let's do this. If any of you can pass the level, I will stay away from you when I meet you in the future, and vice versa. How about that?"

"Not enough!" Yuan Wenshao shook his head and said, "Add another 1 taels of silver."

He repaired the house, and the money in his hand was almost spent.

But after the house is repaired, the various furniture and furnishings inside will cost a lot of money.

Yuan Wenshao's original plan was to sell an imperial village.

Although Huangzhuang was rewarded by the government, it was just some fields and could still be sold.

Now that Han Wei has come to his door, it is a good opportunity.

As for guessing riddles, it's not difficult for him. In his previous life, he also saw riddles and brain teasers.

The difficult thing is that the last question requires writing poetry, but as a time traveler, are you still afraid of writing poetry?
When Han Wei heard that he was asked to raise 1 taels of silver, he dared not agree.

The 1 taels of silver would definitely be available to his family, but he couldn't.

If he really loses, his father can't beat him to death.

As for reneging on debts, he doesn't have the guts yet. There are so many people here, if he reneges on debts, it won't be long before it spreads all over Bianjing.

"Erlang, there's no need to play so big, right?" Liu Lei hurriedly pulled Yuan Wenshao and persuaded him in a low voice.

Sun Hao apologized: "Erlang, I've caused you trouble again."

Seeing this scene, Han Wei raised the corners of his mouth with a sneer: "It turned out to be a bluff."

Yuan Wenshao gave the two of them a reassuring look, looked at Han Wei and said, "Why? Don't dare? If that's the case, remember to stay away from us when we meet."

"Who said I don't dare?" Han Wei had concluded that Yuan Wenshao and the others were bluffing, and said with a smile: "I made a bet with you, but in order to prevent you from cheating, I need to make a written agreement."

Yuan Wenshao was taken aback for a moment, then quickly revealed a smile, nodded and said, "Okay!"

He originally wanted to propose a contract, but Han Wei unexpectedly proposed it first.

Han Wei saw Yuan Wenshao's expression, but understood that Yuan Wenshao did not expect him to agree. As for the smile on his face, he thought it was a forced smile.

"Erlang, feel free to go and compete, I will pay for it." Sun Hao said.

He felt that this trouble was caused by him, and the money should be paid by him.

It's only 1 taels, which is nothing to Dingguo Gongfu.

Although Zhou Dynasty valued literature over military affairs, he did not treat military officers harshly in terms of treatment.

The Dingguo Mansion does not count other income, just the salary and various subsidies from the court, plus the income from the land and food, there are tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Although 1 taels is a lot for the Duke of Dingguo, it is nothing.

"Whatever Ba Lang said, you can't afford this money alone, I will pay half of it." Liu Lei also said very loyally.

Yuan Wenshao: "..."

In this way, if I win money, will I still score points for you?
But both of them had good intentions, and he couldn't refuse, saying: "Well, if we lose, the three of us will share equally, and if we win, we will share equally."

Seeing what the two of them wanted to say, Yuan Wenshao directly waved his hands and said, "That's the deal."

After finishing speaking, he didn't give the two of them a chance, and went directly to the stage.

"Brothers, why don't you just listen to my advice, put peace first and forget about the bet," the stall owner said.

He now knows the identities of Yuan Wenshao and others. Han Weineng's identity will not be simple when he bets with the Lord's children.

He was worried that the loser would eventually implicate him, after all, the topics were all on his booth.
