Literati Sanctification

Chapter 43
"I want this man."

Just when a few people were about to speak, Heng Xiulin walked out, pointed at the woman, and then spoke to the vendor.

Hearing the words, the people on the side turned their heads and saw Heng Xiulin, they were taken aback for a moment, and then stepped aside respectfully.

"Master Heng, did you go out for a spring break today?"

"It turned out to be Young Master Heng, how happy is Young Master Heng playing today?"

When everyone saw Heng Xiulin, they greeted him with great enthusiasm. Because of the poem "Happy Rain on a Spring Night", Heng Xiulin has a very high reputation among the common people. Anyone who sees Heng Xiulin will always greet him with a smile. welcome.

Seeing Heng Xiulin and Heng Xiulin coming from outside the city gate, they immediately asked with a smile on their faces, it is very common for students like this to go out for an outing and seek some inspiration at this time.

Therefore, seeing Heng Xiulin and the two now, the inquiries made by everyone are not without grounds.

"Just came back from a trip abroad, thank you for your concern."

Hearing this, Heng Xiulin nodded to the crowd and said, after greeting the shopper, he turned his head to the vendor again, "I just said 100 taels of silver? If so, give me this person over there."

Heng Xiulin looked at the woman who was shivering from the cold, and his heart softened. He asked the merchant, and the wealthy merchants on the side suddenly changed their expressions. He thought for a moment, but right now he did see Heng Xiulin stand up and intervene.

This made them feel a little uncomfortable, but after thinking about it, they didn't open their mouths to compete with Heng Xiulin after all, not because of Heng Xiulin's high reputation in Heshui City.

If they dare to compete with Heng Xiulin right now, I am afraid that the surrounding people will scold them to death, because seriously, they have also received the favor of Heng Xiulin.

I have received favors from others, and if I have no pictures to report, I am still competing with them. I am afraid that in the future, they will be scolded by people poking their spines. People like them do not have the reputation of literati.

So they care more about reputation, so basically, they will not do things that will cause them to bear infamy.

After all, at their stage, if they want to earn money, there are ways, but if their reputation is gone, it will be difficult to earn it back.

"Yes son, as long as 100 taels of silver, this person is yours."

When the merchant saw the rich merchants around him, his originally flickering eyes finally went out. Seeing this, the merchant felt a burst of disappointment. If these people are all interested in this maid, then as long as they bid, they might be able to pay more. A lot of silver.

But right now, several people had given up on this idea, and he had no choice but to accept the price of 100 taels, but no matter what, it was still good at the moment, and 100 taels of silver finally bought the woman.

What he said before is also half-truth. In other places, he also asked high prices, but no one wanted it. In this way, he lowered some silver. Here, he finally sold it for 100 taels of silver. out.

Otherwise, it would cost him a lot of money to just follow a woman and eat and drink.

"I don't have that much money with me, follow me to get the money at home."

Heng Xiulin waved his hand to the merchant, and then said to him, the merchant hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, he is not familiar with the place here, what should he do if something unexpected happens?
You know, he has seen a lot of things like this. When the time comes, he will be led to a remote place, and then he will be snatched away. He will not even have a place to cry.

The most important thing is that even if the time comes to report to the officials, without evidence, those county magistrates are all biased towards the people in their own cities.

"What are you worrying about? You didn't inquire about Heshui City, Mr. Heng's reputation in Heshui City."

"That is, with our title as the number one talented person in Heshui City, how could we deceive you with this 100 taels of silver?"

Seeing the hesitant look on the merchant's face, the people on the side didn't understand what he was thinking. You must know that they had seen a lot about what the merchant was worried about.

"How can there be any words, Mr. Heng's words, of course I can believe it."

When the peddler heard the words, he immediately responded without a smile, and then said, hearing that they have even moved out the title of the number one talented scholar, so there must be no fake ones.

After all, as long as the talent's reputation is not the kind of professional fraud, otherwise there will be no problem. Moreover, looking at the reactions of the people around him, this person should be in Heshui City and has a very high reputation.

Seeing this, the vendor naturally relaxed slightly, and led the woman behind him towards Heng Xiulin's house.

After following Heng Xiulin for a while, he came to Heng Xiulin's house. When the merchant saw this house, he felt a little relieved. He saw that the side was very wide, not the gutters and alleys, but more I feel more at ease.

Heng Xiulin pushed open the door and walked in. At this moment, Heng Xiulin's face began to feel a little embarrassed, because for the matter of spending 100 taels of silver to buy back a maid, I guess his mother would not be very happy. happy.

Thinking of this, Heng Xiulin gritted his teeth, and then walked in front of Yuanshi.

"Mother, the child needs 100 taels of silver."

Heng Xiulin said to his mother, he didn't say what he would use it for, but he hoped to talk to Yuan after paying the money, so as not to say it at this time, and then lead to a debate.

"Why is it so good, so much money?"

When Yuan Shi heard the words, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at Heng Xiulin suspiciously, and asked.

"Mother, my son needs to buy something, and I'm telling you when I bought it." Hearing this, Heng Xiulin immediately looked at his mother flatteringly, and then said.

Yuanshi looked at Heng Xiulin, looked up and down, and after confirming that his son didn't spend it indiscriminately, he nodded, then walked into the house, took out the well-hidden silver, and took 100 coins The two silver coins were handed over to Heng Xiulin.

After Heng Xiulin took it, he came to the door and handed the money directly to the vendor. After the vendor took it, he looked it up and down, and after confirming that it was correct, he quickly accepted it, and then he handed over the contract and handed it over. After Heng Xiulin, he left quickly.

"come in."

Seeing the merchant leaving, leaving the woman alone, Heng Xiulin greeted her, the woman trembled slightly when she heard the words, and then followed Heng Xiulin directly into the house middle.

"By the way, what's your name?"

Heng Xiulin suddenly thought of something, and then asked.

"Xiyu, my slave's name is Xiyu."

The maid following Heng Xiulin opened her mouth slightly at this moment, and spoke to Heng Xiulin lightly.
