Chapter 13
Obviously, he didn't recognize that the person in front of him was Xu Le, the second young master of the Xu family.

Xu Le raised his eyelids, and just as he was about to speak, the young master beside him stopped him, stood up and said, "The three are invited, and I'm going to the Xiao family, Xiao Fu. We bought these two positions. Your Excellency, you don't have to say anything." It’s unreasonable to drive people away just by saying so, right?”

The Xiao family is also a big wealthy family in Jialing City, its head is the present governor of Yangzhou, in terms of official position, it is much higher than Li Tingyuan's city guard, it can be said that he is Li Tingyuan's immediate boss.

Hearing the word Xiao family, Wang and Xie looked at each other, and there was a little fear in their eyes.

Although their two families, Wang and Xie, are also wealthy families, no matter how rich they are, they are just ordinary people. The Xiao family has an official background. Once they offend members of the Xiao family, they may cause a lot of trouble.

There was a little hesitation in the eyes of the two, and then they all looked at the young man in black in front of him.

They didn't know the identity of the young man in black, they only knew that he was extremely noble, and even the patriarchs of their two families respected him.

The young man in black put away the folding fan in his hand, and said lightly: "I don't like to sit with others, but, for the sake of that old man Xiao Mingyuan, how much money did you spend on the seat? It’s double the price to pay you back.”

Xiao Mingyuan is the name of the head of the Xiao family.

Hearing that this person was so disrespectful and dared to call his grandfather by his name directly, Xiao Fu's eyes suddenly showed a hint of anger, but he quickly suppressed it.

He looked at the young man in black, and said in a deep voice, "Who is your Excellency?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is whether you can sell this position."

While the young man in black was speaking, he glanced at Xiao Fu and Xu Le, with a hint of arrogance in his expression, which well explained what it meant to be defiant.

Xiao Fu squeezed the hand holding the fan, then with a wry smile on his face, he stood up and said to Xu Le: "Brother, it seems that you and I have met someone who can't be offended, I'll sit in another place, Do you want to change?"

Xu Le smiled at him, and said lightly: "Change if you want, I won't."

"Bastard, you know..." Wang Ming spoke again, angrily scolding Xu Le, but was interrupted by Xu Le.

"The son of the dignified Wang family is willing to be a lackey of others. Being a dog is nothing more than a dog, but he has the face to bark and bark in public. He is not cheap."

As Xu Le said, he shook his head, his eyes full of ridicule.

Wang Ming's face turned red immediately, and he pointed at Xu Le, trembling and speechless.

When Xiao Fu heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud, and many people in the hall also laughed out loud, pointing at Wang Xie and Wang Xie, and began to discuss in a low voice.

Wang Ming and Xie Shuxin's faces turned blue and white, but they couldn't get angry, and they were very hard to hold back.

"You really don't want to sell it?" The black-clothed man looked at Xu Le calmly and said calmly.

"Are you rich?"

The young man in black frowned slightly, nodded and said, "Let's make a price."

Xu Le glanced at him, stretched out a finger, and said, "One million taels, my position belongs to you."

"Are you kidding me?" The young man in black stared at Xu Le, the fierceness in his eyes flashed away.

"One million taels, that's the price, whether you like it or not, don't let it down."

Xu Le didn't bother to pay attention to him, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, lifted his feet, and put them on the table without any scruples, causing everyone present to frown.

"You will regret it." The young man in black took a deep look at Xu Le, and then sat down on the main seat.

"stupid guy."

Xu Le pouted, sneered, and didn't care.

Wang Ming and Xie Shuxin did not dare to sit at the same table with the young man in black. They sat at the table on the lower left, looking at Xu Le with hatred in their eyes.

As a result, a strange phenomenon appeared in the entire lobby.

The best table had three empty seats, and a young man in black sat on the main seat, resting his eyes with his eyes closed.

Sitting next to him was a bald-headed brawny man, with his feet resting on the table, a smile hanging from the corner of his mouth, and a calm expression on his face.

The people below whispered to each other from time to time, and their eyes flicked to the best table, as if guessing the origin of these two people.

No one dared to step forward to question them before they got to know the details of these two people.

After a while, a group of women came down from the second floor, headed by a maid in Tsing Yi, and walked to the front of the lobby.

The maid in Tsing Yi was holding a scroll in her hand.

"Good day, everyone."

The maid in Tsing Yi smiled sweetly, and saluted Shi Shiran to everyone. When her eyes fell on Xu Le and the young man in black, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she was stunned for a moment.

I don't blame her for losing her composure, it's because these two people are too eye-catching.

One has no manners and is extremely vulgar, while the other is personable and noble, it is like a world of difference.

The maid in Tsing Yi came back to her senses, hurriedly adjusted her state, smiled at everyone, and said, "It's the reception in January again, and it's still the old rules. Who can pass one of the tests of piano, chess, poetry, wine, and painting?" , of course I can see my girl."

"Miss Juan'er, stop talking nonsense, come up with a question quickly."

"Yes, yes, I have already prepared for these five items, and I can't wait."

"Everyone, don't worry." The maid named Juan'er pursed her lips and smiled, and unfolded the scroll in her hand.

There is a bamboo character written on the scroll, the handwriting is beautiful and small, one can tell it is written by a woman.

"The theme of this reception is the word 'bamboo'."

Juan'er said, put away the scroll, and said to everyone: "The first test is to write a poem with the theme of bamboo. After the poem is completed, I will judge by myself, the guest of Nuanyu Pavilion. If you can get the first grade , even if you pass the test, you can meet my girl."

The guests of Nuanyu Pavilion are all well-known figures, with the judgment of these people, everyone is naturally at ease.

"Come here, prepare pen and ink for you masters."

Sheets of rice paper and brushes were handed out, and suddenly, Xu Le had the illusion that he was doing test papers in his previous life.

He looked at the white paper in front of him, in a daze.

Seeing his appearance, the group of people below couldn't help laughing secretly.

"This vulgar person is afraid that he can't even read a word, but he can also compose poetry? It's ridiculous."

"That's right, but the young man in black looks like a formidable enemy."

"Haha, fortunately I prepared a good poem in advance, and it happened to be about bamboo. It seems that today is my peach blossom!"

Everyone had their own ideas, and they buried their heads in writing.

The young man in black glanced at Xu Le who was in a daze, a look of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he started to write, but after a while, he made a poem, then continued to close his eyes and continue to rest his mind.

It didn't take long for everyone to write their poems and hand them in with confidence.

Xu Le thought for a while, got up and patted the century-old Yutangchun away, lifted the wine jar, and poured it down hard, gurgling, the wine dripped down his neck, soaking his clothes.

"Good drinker!" There was a cheer from the corner.

Everyone was taken aback by Xu Le's sudden action, and when they looked at it again, they felt a heroic spirit emanating from Xu Le.

"What kind of wine is this? Why is this scent so different?"

"It seems to be Yutangchun."

"No, no, this is... this is at least 50 years of Yutangchun."

50 years of Yutangchun!
After hearing the words, everyone looked at the wine jar in Xu Le's hand.

Some drinkers watched Xu Le drinking so much, and couldn't help but feel distressed. The 50-year-old Yutangchun, a thousand taels of silver and a pot of good things that are priceless, was ruined by Xu Le like a cow chewing peonies.

"Xu's Yutangchun, quality: high-grade ordinary grade (recipe is as follows, can be improved). Wine tasting reward: Confucian courage, talent like a dragon."

"Good wine!"

Xu Le laughed loudly, and slammed the wine jar on the table with a "bang", the wine splashed all over the young man in black, making the corners of his eyes twitch continuously.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Le picked up the pen and wrote vigorously on the rice paper.

Everyone didn't care at first, and most of them were watching Xu Le's poem with the intention of watching a joke. However, suddenly, a golden light flashed on the rice paper in front of Xu Le, and a dragon chant came out.

Everyone froze for a moment, even the young man in black frowned and looked at Xu Le.

"Snapped."

Xu Le put down the pen in his hand, and in an instant, a golden dragon-shaped phantom rushed out from the rice paper!

"Brilliant like a dragon!"

Seeing this scene, I don't know who exclaimed, and then, the audience was in an uproar.
