Good man, he has a golden finger

If he said that he completely trusted his brother-in-law, then Village Chief Cui would definitely not admit it. After all, people's hearts are hidden. He told his brother-in-law that the nobleman passed by Cuijia Village, but he didn't say that the nobleman was still in Cuijia Village. If something really happened, the nobleman was still in the village. After hearing the news, he could also avenge them and settle the villagers.

Although these thoughts are dark, Village Chief Cui must think about everything clearly for the sake of the whole village.

The men living in Cuijia Village are all from farming backgrounds, and they are all common people. If they really encounter someone powerful, hundreds of people can't fight them. Otherwise, why did Village Chief Cui bring so many people here?

He told his brother-in-law that he brought so many people to tell his brother-in-law that everyone in the village knew about this matter and was waiting for money to repair the house. If something happened, there would be thousands of people making trouble.

Moreover, the brother-in-law was also smart. He placed all the hundred people near their home in order to reassure Village Chief Cui. In this way, they did not say anything, but put each other's weaknesses in each other's hands, because if something went wrong, the hundred villagers would be the first to attack Zhao Guangqing's family. Zhao Guangqing dared to put his family in such a position, and he was 100% sure.

Zhou Chun was even smarter. He knew that Zhao Guangqing dared to take such a valuable thing without a deed, and he was willing to risk his life on it, so he gave 1,000 taels of silver to reassure these people.

Cui Mingshan had 100 taels of silver in his hand. He had never taken so much silver in his life. He was followed by more than a dozen strong men from the village. His father went to buy cattle and horses, saying that he could take a bull cart when he returned. Cui Mingshan's 100 taels of silver were not for anything else, but for buying daily necessities for the nobles.

Thinking of the nobleman who admired plum blossoms in the snow that day and said that it would be best if he had a guqin, Cui Mingshan brought a dozen people to Chongwen Road in Wenxian Town. This street is full of things prepared for those literati and poets, with books and some other things. It was the first time for others to come here, but Cui Mingshan, who had been out for fun with his uncle, was very calm.

Cui Mingshan had also been to school before, but later he couldn't continue, but he could be considered literate.

Looking at the shops around, he quickly found a shop called Xianyinju and walked in.

The waiter who came up to greet him was smart, and he didn't look down on Cui Mingshan and his friends because they were dressed like ordinary farmers. Now that it had just snowed heavily in winter, if there were people coming and going in the shop, he would have listened.

"Sir, what musical instrument do you want to see?"

The shop was full of various musical instruments, including guqin, pipa, guzheng, flute and so on. It is said that there are six arts of a gentleman, and guqin is an instrument that many literati and poets can play.

"I want to see the guqin." Cui Mingshan said.

"Okay, come here and take a look. This is the guqin that our store just delivered at the end of last month. It is made by the most powerful master in our county, and the sound is also very nice. Do you want to try it?"

The waiter was very enthusiastic, but Cui Mingshan looked embarrassed. He didn't understand these musical instruments, but after thinking about it, he bit his lip and said.

"I want the most expensive one, the most expensive guqin in the store."

That's right, this is a guqin for a noble, how can I use a cheap one?

When the waiter heard it, his eyes lit up and he said quickly.

"Of course our store has the most expensive one, but if I go upstairs and call the shopkeeper down, I can get a few cents cheaper."

He asked the guest to wait here, and he hurried upstairs to call the shopkeeper.

At this time, several scholars in thin clothes came in. They seemed to have ideas about musical instruments. After seeing Cui Mingshan standing in the store, they frowned and didn't understand why such farmers came to such a place and dirty the land in vain.

The people Cui Mingshan brought were all outside, and they were just looking at this side from a distance. Cui Mingshan retracted his sight and waited for the waiter to come down.

Sure enough, the waiter immediately brought down a slightly fat shopkeeper. The shopkeeper had heard the situation and was very enthusiastic towards Cui Mingshan after coming down.

"Is this young brother going to buy a guqin? It just so happens that I recently received a special guqin, which is made of green sandalwood with a fresh and elegant fragrance. Green sandalwood is rare, but few people make guqins. It was because of this piece of wood that this green yi was made. Come on, take it out and show it to the young brother."

The waiter had already taken out this green yi to show Cui Mingshan. It must be said that the guqin made of green sandalwood is extremely rare. Even on such a winter day, seeing such green really makes people feel good.

"How much is this guqin?"

Cui Mingshan was so excited when he thought that the nobleman would use this guqin.

"Two thousand taels of silver." The shopkeeper gave a price directly. This price was still cheap, and Cui Mingshan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the hundred taels of silver given by his father could not buy a zither.

However, even if it was two thousand taels of silver, Cui Mingshan had to buy it for the nobleman.

"Buy it! But shopkeeper, I can only give you all the money after three days. How about I order the zither first?"

I had seen my uncle settle accounts with people like this before. Cui Mingshan said this, which made the shopkeeper look embarrassed.

At this time, a man wearing blue scholar's clothes said leisurely.

"Brother Zhang, look at the declining world. No one dares to come to Xianyinju to buy musical instruments. Although this green sandalwood is not too expensive, it is also extremely rare. This guqin was made by a master craftsman. Of course, a thousand taels is fine, but some people have no money in their pockets, but they still say these ridiculous things, don’t you think it’s funny?”

Brother Zhang, whom he called Brother Zhang, also glanced at Cui Mingshan and said.

"Brother Li, don't be like this. This Lu Yi is good, but it must be worthy of a noble person. The new year is approaching. If Brother Zhang likes it, you can take it home and love it."

But the man in blue scholar uniform shook his head and disagreed.

"If such a person takes a fancy to this piano, it has already fallen into disgrace. If a young man takes it home, wouldn't it make people laugh?"

When he said this, the other scholars laughed heartily, as if they were accustomed to mocking Cui Mingshan like this.

The shopkeeper looked ugly, but he couldn't offend these scholars. After all, he still had to do business, so he said.

"This little brother, if you don't have enough money, why don't you try another piano?"

He would not ridicule Cui Mingshan, but Cui Mingshan looked at the group of scholars with his head raised and said involuntarily.

"This Luyi is for the nobles to use."

He said this, but the scholars just looked at him. No one wanted to talk to a farmer. Just looking at him was already a gift. When they became officials and prime ministers in the future, they would naturally look down upon them even more. Foraging in the ground.

"Brother Zheng, it's really a good time to enjoy the plum blossoms today, and your poem is also a good one."

"When the sun gets thinner, the greenery closes early, and the tangerine trees bloom day and night. The flowers and trees in the snow house are moistened overnight, and the trees are scattered with light thunder when they are first sold."

Someone else chanted it again, and then the scholar next to him also praised it.

"Brother Zheng, this poem is really a good poem! What a poem!"

These scholars have never paid attention to farmers like Cui Mingshan, so they naturally ignored Cui Mingshan.

But Cui Mingshan's eyes were burning. He looked at the leisurely and contented appearance of these scholars. He should have been afraid and timid at first, but after meeting the nobles, he didn't feel that these people had anything worthy of him. Dear.

The nobles are so aloof, yet they treat them with gentleness and courtesy. There are hundreds of such scholars in Wenxian Town, so why are they so arrogant?

What sour verses are written! It doesn't look like it was written by a noble person. Even a person like him can understand the noble person's meaning instantly. It's not like these scholars who just like these useless poems.

Realizing that the farmer hadn't left yet and was still looking at them, the scholar in blue robe raised his eyebrows again.

"Look at this brother, you are not a qin player. If you can't afford a qin, forget it. Why are you asking for trouble here?"

The Paladin should be ridiculed, but the scholar didn't think anything of it. How could something as elegant as a piano fall into the hands of such a peasant? What a waste of resources.

But Cui Mingshan was not afraid and faced the scholar's ridicule. He just looked at these scholars who were completely different from him and said.

"I can't play the piano. I want to buy this green ripple for the nobles. The nobles like to enjoy the snow and plum blossoms. They once said, 'How can you get the fragrance of plum blossoms without being chilled to the bone?' You guys look down on me, a farmer." , but what you eat is the food grown by the farmers, and what you wear is the cloth carefully woven by the embroiderers. If you come to Xianyinju, I can come too. "

Because of his youth, Cui Mingshan was not afraid of facing these people, but as soon as he said these words, the whole store fell silent.

Several scholars were shocked by those two simple lines of poetry. With only these two lines of poetry left in their minds, they began to ponder.

Cui Mingshan took out one hundred taels of silver and looked at the store owner.

"I'll use this one hundred taels of silver as a deposit, and I'll come over to pick up Lu Yi in three days. What do you think, shopkeeper?"

When the shopkeeper saw that the other party was really rich and was willing to give one hundred taels of silver as a deposit, his face suddenly lit up with a smile.

"Of course, no problem, no problem, I'll write you a deed right now, and you can just come and pick up the piano in three days."

Two thousand taels of silver, such an expensive green ripple, is actually difficult to sell in Wenxian Town. Originally, the shopkeeper planned to send someone to Jiangnan to sell it, but now that it can be sold, it is considered good.

After a while, the deed was written. Cui Mingshan read the deed and made sure that there was no problem. Then he was about to leave, but he did not expect to be blocked by these scholars who reacted.

"Brother, it was my fault just now. I apologize to you, Xiaosheng."

The scholar in blue robe actually gave Cui Mingshan a gift, and his words were very sincere. At this time, he looked at Cui Mingshan with curiosity in his eyes.

"I don't know who wrote the poem you just said? Is there any chance that we can meet each other?"

In response, Cui Mingshan shook his head coldly and said.

"Is the name of a noble person something that you and I can just know casually?"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, which made the scholars unable to react, and they were all extremely disappointed.

Just now they ridiculed the peasants for not being worthy of Lu Yi, and now they are ridiculed by the peasants for being unworthy of noble people. As expected, things have turned...

Cui Mingshan walked forward, feeling that his heart was about to beat out of his chest, and the appearance of a noble man appeared in his mind involuntarily.

He thought, if the nobleman were here, these scholars must have knelt at the nobleman's feet one by one, right?

Their arrogance is nothing to mention in front of noble people...
