Chapter 147 Liu Lao Xiucai
After a while, Liu Lao Xiucai finally figured out what was going on.
It turned out that it was the businessman who bought Li Qing’s characters for one or two half of the silver that day. When doing business in the city next to Heming City, he sold the characters in his hand unintentionally, and he sold them all. After five silver tael, the news came out, and others couldn’t help but be moved.
Li Qing’s original price sells three taels, but it’s five taels when it changes hands. Is there any more profitable business in the world?
And Li Qing has not come to sell now, so many people are naturally eyeing Liu Laoxiu who has a letter in his hand.
After knowing this, Liu Laoxiu didn’t even collect it. He went back to the house and fetched Li Qing’s calligraphy and sold three silver tael. The main reason was that he had copied enough of this calligraphy, so he would keep it. It’s useless to go down. As for letting him go to another city to sell, he doesn’t want to bother.
After the sale, Liu Laoxiu had a good meal, and then, like everyone else, looked forward to Li Qing’s coming.
But Li Qing said that he bought four and a half silver last time. He thought it was enough, so he decided to go once a week. Diligence is not beneficial to reading.
In the daytime, when he is not selling words, Li Qing has been reading books. Now, in the past few years, he has read a lot of books. With his comprehension ability, I am afraid that others have been reading for several decades. Can’t surpass him.
Li Qing is full of confidence in the exam three years later, and her writing is getting better and better.
Today, seven days have passed since the last time they sold the characters. Li Qing picked up the three characters that he had written three days ago, and went out of the house under the pretext of buying books. Lu Yu was behind him. Just a smile.
Leisurely I came to the Temple of the City God, where it was last time, next to that old scholar Liu. However, it was different from last time. This time, this time, the old lady Liu showed a diligent smile when she saw him. Li Qing was still a little strange, but when she saw the words that Liu Laoxiu was putting on, she suddenly realized. Even Li Qing admires this Liu Laoxiu. He can keep his head down even at his age and even imitate his own words, which is amazing.
Speaking of Liu Lao Xiucai’s words, Li Qing can see it the first time he comes here. His words are very ordinary, but compared to the ordinary person, he has more skills accumulated over the years. exist. But now it’s different, the word actually has a bit of charm.
“Li Xiucai, you are here.”
Liu Lao Xiucai bowed his hands to Li Qing at this time. In fact, before Li Qing came, he had already thought about a lot of words. But when I saw Li Qing, I couldn’t tell.
“en. ”
Li Qing nods and puts his own words next to Liu Lao Xiucai, who is also helping Li Qing to do it.
“Li Xiucai, I. I.” When Liu Lao Xiucai helped to write the words, the words were ambiguous, but he couldn’t hear what he wanted to say.
“Liu Old Mister, what’s wrong?” Li Qing asked.
Hearing Li Qing’s question, Liu Lao Xiucai tightened his throat and forced out a sentence: “Li Li Xiucai, I imitated your words, I hope you don’t. Angry.”
“Hahaha, how could this be.” Li Qing smiled, he comforted Liu Xiucai and said, “Old Mister, isn’t this word you imitate me and I imitate you all the time? Don’t you just write according to other people’s handwriting, can it be said that whoever is born can write, that’s impossible. You can imitate my handwriting, I should feel honored.”
“Then That’s good, that’s good.” Liu Laoxiu put out a long breath, in fact, he doesn’t need to say this, just like Li Qing said, how can a word be copied. But after being a scholar for so many years, he has some integrity in his heart, and he feels that it is really uncomfortable not to say it. At this time, he can get Li Qing’s understanding, and he is naturally overjoyed, and he admires Li Qing even more.
At this moment, after Li Qing placed the words, many people gathered around again, this time without Li Qing saying, someone took out the silver taels and handed them to Li Qing.
“Li Xiucai, I’ll buy a word.”
One person handed it to Li Qing and three silver tael said, Li Qing took it and handed him a word.
“Li Xiucai, sell me one.”
“Li Xiucai.”
In a blink of an eye, Li Qing’s words were all sold out, and the floor The words that had just been laid out were all rolled up again.
“This is?” Li Qing was a little puzzled, how could this word sell so fast today.
He’s naturally happy that it’s selling fast, but it’s a little too fast.
Lao Xiucai Liu, who had been watching, hurried forward and told Li Qing what he knew. Li Qing smiled when he heard that five silver taels were sold in the outer city. , he thought, these people are really smart enough.
But Li Qing was a little hesitant in his heart, now that selling three silver taels is high enough, can those people sell five silver taels? The 1st word is fresh, but after that Will anyone still buy it? Five silver tael is not a small amount.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Qing smiled again. He thought it was up to him, anyway, whether he sold the words, as for them, whether to re-sell them or use them in the toilet, then It’s not something he should worry about.
Saying goodbye to Liu Xiucai, Li Qing turned around in the city. Today’s words are selling too fast, and it’s too early to go back now.
While in transit, Li Qing did one thing first: buy books.
Last time, he said that he bought a book and went back to pick up a roast duck. This time he can’t repeat the same mistake. From the bookseller, Li Qing had already mentioned ten books, which cost him three silver taels.
This book, in the ancient times of Great Qian and Li Qing, is a complete luxury compared to other things. Ordinary books are not cheap, and many good books are even more valuable. It is far from Li Qing’s past life and modern times, the kind of book that sells many books for a month’s salary at an extremely cheap price.
In a sense, books here represent resources, and only wealthy people can hide books.
Li Qing These ten books are not many, but they may be things that some scholars can’t buy for years.
At this time, with the book, Li Qing has become a master who is not short of money in the eyes of some people.
And some of these people have already taken action against Li Qing at this time.
“Official man, come in and take a look, you are tired of reading, let us beat your back.”
“Yes, official man sees you as a great talent , come in and tell us what’s in the book, our sisters are very curious.”
“Guanren~”
“Guanren!”
Li Qing was speechless at this moment. While he was still walking in the city, four or five women came out from the roadside. They reached out and grabbed him and were about to pull him towards the Yichun Building next to him.
Li Qing assures God that he definitely didn’t come here on purpose, but because there are so many Yichun buildings and Xiangchun Courtyards in the city that they are accidentally opened in front of them. , undisguised in the slightest, on the streets from time to time.
The women who were holding Li Qing at this time, all dressed in thin clothes, exuding the scent of rouge, shot straight into Li Qing’s nostrils.
However, although the fragrance of this rouge is fragrant, it is really too inferior, and the smell is too strong. There is a faint strange smell in the messy fusion of several women’s rouge fragrances. Li Qing is really not happy. compliments.
Li Qing broke free of several women and walked straight forward without speaking. He didn’t dare to speak at this time, what would he do if he was entangled in his mouth again.
“Official man, official man, you are so cruel.”
“Official man, come back.”
Li Qing walked very fast. The woman chased after a few steps without chasing, but shouted behind her, and Li Qing had already walked away.
It’s not that they can’t catch up. If they chase it again, they will enter the site of other buildings. If you do this business, that site is absolutely insurmountable. This is more important than any other business. , the small is angry and quarrelling, the big is that it will kill people.
Li Qing walked around the city again and met two waves of women again. At first, he was still a little puzzled why he was so popular today. But inadvertently glanced at the book in his hand, Li Qing suddenly realized that this book was the fate for him.
So after realizing it, Li Qing didn’t continue shopping, and turned back to his house.
In the house, Lu Yu was grinding freshly picked sweet-scented osmanthus with a tamper. He was going to use these to make another batch of sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. Li Qing first went back to the study, put away the book, and then repeated the same technique to put the silver tael. Hiding under the floor tiles, and then came to Lu Yu.
Li Qing took a deep breath before he got to his wife. Osmanthus was already fragrant, and there was a more fragrant smell on his wife.
Li Qing knows, however, that her wife has never used any rouge, and the fragrance is completely self-contained, not comparable to rouge.
Li Qing is intoxicated every time.
“Miss.”
Li Qing opened the mouth and said.
“Husband, what’s the matter? Are the books ready?” Lu Yu, who was squatting on the ground, looked up at Li Qing, and then brushed the messy hair on his forehead.
Li Qing felt a little distressed when he saw this. Grinding sweet-scented osmanthus is not an easy task, and his wife is really caring for herself.
“It’s ready.” Li Qing said softly, then squatted down, took the pounder in Lu Yu’s hand and began to grind it hard.
But who knew that just after grinding it twice, Lu Yu grabbed the pounding tube back.
“What is Husband doing? How can you come here? It’s important that you read.” Lu Yu opened the mouth and said.
Li Qing smiled and shook his head: “Ma’am, it’s important to read, but if you keep reading, you’ll become a fool.”
“That’s not possible. Do some women’s business.” Lu Yu said again.
Hearing what Lu Yu said, Li Qing did not scramble for the tamping tube, but watched his wife grind the sweet-scented osmanthus one after another. I looked towards Li Qing, why is my Husband weird, why don’t I go to study?
“Husband, you.”
Before Lu Yu could say anything, Li Qing hugged her.
Li Qing hugged Lu Yu tightly and whispered in Lu Yu’s ear: “Miss, you said you can’t do things for women, then I’ll do things for men.”
“Husband, you, it’s not good in the daytime.”
Li Qing stopped listening to Lu Yu at this time, and blocked Lu Yu’s mouth, Lu Yu Suddenly speechless, while breathing, Lu Yu gasping for breath and said: “Husband, the door. The courtyard gate”
Li Qing smiled: “It was already closed.”
After another week, Li Qing went to sell the word again. As he expected, the word was not as good as the second time.
In fact, this is normal. Although Li Qing’s characters are not simple, his identity is only a scholar, and the value of the characters is greatly discounted. It is already very high to sell three silver taels. People may be fresh for the first time, but how can they always buy with five silver tael.
However, although it was not as fast as the second time, Li Qing’s words were still sold out before noon, mainly by a calligraphy and painting merchant. Although Qing’s identity is not high, but his character is really good, maybe he will find a buyer in the capital.
Li Qing was about to buy two more books when the words were sold out, but Liu Laoxiu, who had been watching him all morning, stopped Li Qing.
“Liu Old Mister, what’s the matter?” Li Qing asked.
Lao Xiucai Liu was full of smiles at this time, and docilely said to Li Qing: “Li Xiucai, frankly, I have something to ask for.”
“Oh? What’s the matter?”
Li Qing was a little surprised when he heard that he had something to ask for himself. How could he help him?
Liu Laoxiu looked around, it was already noon, it was dinner time, and there were not many people around, Liu Laoxiu looked at Li Qing and whispered with anticipation: ” Li Xiucai, can I ask you to be my teacher?”
“A teacher?” Li Qing took a breath.
“I’m afraid this is unnecessary and inappropriate.” Li Qing shook his head.
“Li Xiucai, listen to me, I want to learn to write with you, and make your word discipline.” Liu Lao Xiucai thought about it for nearly ten days and said it after several days of brewing.
It’s obvious that Li Qing’s handwriting is good. Liu Laoxiu is really addicted now. He wants to learn to write with Li Qing.
“Do you want to learn Chinese characters from me?” Li Qing asked.
“That’s right, I.” Liu Laoxiu said his inner thoughts in one breath at this time. He had talked for a long time. After speaking, Li Qing looked dry. Liu Lao Xiucai, nodded.
“many thanks Old Mister appreciates me so much, but the age gap between you and me is too big, how can I bear it, I don’t need to be a teacher. But if Liu Old Mister is willing to learn Chinese characters, I can Write a copybook, and Liu Old Mister can copy it later, I don’t know if it will work?” Li Qing opened the mouth and said with a smile.
“It’s feasible, it’s feasible, many thanks to Li Xiucai, many thanks to Li Xiucai.” Liu Lao Xiucai is very grateful to Li Qing, and it is enough to have a copybook.
Li Qing agreed with Liu Laoxiu before he left, and he would write the copybook when he went back. When he came next time, he would give him the copybook. Liu Laoxiu was very grateful.
After returning home, Li Qing wrote a copybook in two days. Although it was not complete, it was enough.
After seven days, Li Qing gifted this copybook to Liu Laoxiu, Liu Laoxiu regarded it as a treasure, and Li Qing’s calligraphy was hard to sell at first, but he still sold it, mainly because of him. I only wrote one word today and brought it here, but there are still people who are bold enough to buy it.
After three months, Li Qing’s word-selling business has been tepid, but he is enjoying himself. After all, this kind of thing is a side business, and his main business is still studying. superior.
As for Liu Xiucai, after he got Li Qing’s copybook, he didn’t come to set up a stall. It is said that he went back to his house and worked hard, and he didn’t go out until he got results. Li Qing didn’t t expect, he still has this perseverance.
But it is said that Liu Lao Xiucai is now practicing calligraphy at home, and he has been practicing for three months.
On this day, Liu Laoxiu stopped writing and compared what he wrote with Li Qing’s. Liu Laoxiu was relaxed, and the three months of hard work were not in vain. Now his words are similar to Li Qing’s. The characters are already five points alike. As for imitating them, Liu Laoxiu has no confidence.
Li Qing’s words seem to have a kind of magic power, he can only imitate 50% at most, and then he can’t figure it out, but even if it’s 50% like, that’s enough.
At this time, I picked up my previous words and compared them with my current words, Liu Laoxiu was sighed, and I really lived to the end of my age before, so can I call it? No wonder it can’t be sold.
And now, hum hmph!
Liu Laoxiu just chuckled, he had already sold it yesterday, and he bought a full two hundred and thirty for a handwritten large character. Copper plate, what is this concept? This is a qualitative transcendence. With just one handwriting, I can support my family in the city without anything difficult, but I can still live very well.
If it weren’t for his old age and his poor health, Liu Laoxiu would think about renewing the string.
However, because he is getting old, Liu Laoxiu can only have a glass of wine to meet the moon, and he really doesn’t have that ability.
For the rest of the year, Liu Laoxiu decided that he would just live his whole life like this.
At this moment, the copybook that had been copied for three months was still on the table, and Liu Laoxiu suddenly moved in his heart, picked up the copybook and looked at it again and again.
In the past three months, Liu Laoxiu has turned the thin copybook and rolled it up, but he was not looking for any words, he just suddenly thought of something.
“Isn’t it a little bad to do it yourself?” After thinking for a while, Liu Laoxiu was a little hesitant.
“However, this copybook was given to me by Li Xiucai, so I can do whatever I want, and there is no problem.” Liu Xiucai thought again.
At this moment, Liu Laoxiu ran to the stove in the kitchen with the copybook, and he actually wanted to burn the copybook.
The fire was lit. Although he hesitated for a while, the copybook was thrown into the fire by Liu Laoxiucai and quickly turned to ashes. Liu Laoxiu thought very simply. Now that he lives by writing, such copybooks cannot be circulated, otherwise his advantages will be lost.
As for whether Li Qing will teach others, Liu Laoxiu is not worried. He can see that Li Qing does not care about this, and he can teach himself only because he borrowed pen and ink that day. With a little bit of fate, this kind of fate, other people will not have it again.
At this moment, when the stove was extinguished, Liu Laoxiu stood up and looked at his small house. He suddenly laughed.
After that, Liu Laoxiu continued to sell characters, but he changed his place. Li Qing didn’t care about it. He knew that Liu Laoxiu was worried about not being able to sell beside him. Li Qing could understand.
Then Li Qing also read Liu Laoxiucai’s words. How should I put it, it has surpassed 90% of the scholar in this street. Li Qing is very happy about this, because Liu Laoxiucai is happy. .
As for other people who want to learn Chinese characters again, Li Qing has not taught them any more, he does not have the time.
Li Qing’s words were sold in the fourth month, but a major event suddenly appeared.
His characters have been bought very slowly. Who would have guessed that just three characters were placed on this day, and they were snapped up by a hurried person. Not only that, but the backlog was not in time. The two characters placed on it were also bought. You must know that Li Qing still has three silver taels, and these five characters are only fifteen taels.
“Who is it?” Li Qing wondered.
But although I don’t know why I bought it, Li Qing happily closed the stall.
After returning home, the floor tiles of the study room were empty by two more, and the osmanthus trees outside were also filled with two handfuls of soil.
After seven days, Li Qing went to sell characters again. This time, what was even more strange happened. Three or four people fought because they wanted to buy characters, and one of them took out a knife.
Li Qing is here to sell words, not to sacrifice his life. Seeing this, he will close the stall as soon as he sees it. Who knows that the man with the knife said to him kindly: “Li Xiucai, don’t worry, I will definitely not. It will hurt you, I want to teach this person who took the opportunity to fish.”
“Who do you think took the opportunity to fish?” the person next to him loudly said.
But when he saw the knife, the people next to him didn’t dare to grab it again. Li Qing’s few words were bought by the person with the knife, and then he left in high spirits.
Li Qing took silver two back to the house in confusion, what happened? how so?
Just when Li Qing was going to inquire, news from the capital spread in the scholar in Heming City. It is said that the merchant who bought Li Qing’s words and took them to the capital sold them to A Young Master, and that Young Master just used this word to give to the prime minister who wished his birthday. After the prime minister saw the word, he started.
According to the people present, the prime minister sighed for a long time, saying that this word is rare in the world, and then inquired about Li Qing. When he learned that Li Qing was only a 22-year-old scholar, he sighed even more. Incessantly, it is Great Qian’s fortune to say that Great Qian has another great talent in the future.
And Li Qing’s name spread in the capital.
With the endorsement of the prime minister, the remaining few pieces of Li Qing’s words by the businessman were sold out quickly, the lowest one was thirty taels!
As the news spread, many calligraphy and painting merchants couldn’t sit still and sent people to buy characters to sell. What happened the day before yesterday was just a small one, and there are probably more to come in the future. What about people.
As for those who bought Li Qing characters by accident before, this is a fortune now, and it is said that some merchants offered three times the price.
Li Qing felt a little uneasy after knowing this. There are so many interests involved. What if someone commits a murder? However, Li Qing thought that no one would do anything to him, after all, he was a writer.
On the seventh day, Li Qing went to the Chenghuang Temple with some trepidation, but before he got there, some people wanted to buy his words on the way. Li Qing would not sell it. I sold it this time, why don’t I go home and buy it next time? I have my own wife at home, so I must not sell it.
When I came to Chenghuang Temple Street, Li Qing bought the characters for a long time in the crowd of onlookers, and then left without stopping. He wanted to go back to the house.
As for the price of selling characters, it has remained unchanged.
Since this day, Li Qing has been a little uneasy, for fear that someone will break into his small courtyard, and he will not sell any words. But after a long time, no one came except the scholar who came to visit, so Li Qing was relieved. After 1 month, he continued to sell characters. The characters were sold three times at a time, and they were sold out every time. Li Qing’s In the study, more silver taels were hidden.
What Li Qing didn’t know was that a few corpses suddenly hung on the barren trees outside the city some time ago, and the corpses couldn’t find a single wound all over their body, it seems that they were killed by a powerful internal strength. of.
Many people saw it, but it was heart trembled.
