The banquet venue is Tianxiang Restaurant, which is said to be a very famous restaurant in Kyoto.
Lin Bai didn't know how famous he was, but the King of Ganfan was preparing to go to Tianxiang Tower when he heard that he was going to Tianxiang Tower. He immediately said that he was not hungry.
But Halazi kept flowing.
It is said that a meal here costs hundreds of taels of silver.
It can be imagined that the annual expenditure of an ordinary family is only about twenty taels.
Anyway, the Ganfanwang came to eat once, and there was still someone to treat him, but he hasn't been here since. Although Qing'an Bofu is a noble family, the Xu family are rough people and don't have much wealth. The little salary is less than ordinary people. Nice people.
It’s better to forget about eating in such a place!
For this reason alone, the talented people from Kyoto are quite heroic.
Of course, the talent in Kyoto was just a gimmick. Lin Bai already roughly understood that the person who initiated the banquet was Chen Risheng, the son of Chen Guogong.
The gap between the Duke's Mansion and the Bo's Mansion is huge.
Totally different.
However, according to Xu Da, Chen Guogong's mansion is not a peacemaker, at least not on the surface. Chen Risheng has a pretty good reputation among the aristocratic children of Kyoto.
It's not a blind date, Lin Bai has no interest in knowing this.
Anyway, if someone invites you to dinner, let’s eat!
If someone insists on bringing his face closer, he will naturally not be polite.
It doesn't matter if you don't have one, just show your face and let the fourth child know that you are here. If that bitch really doesn't react at all, then this weakling...
no! Gotta eat it!
If that bitch doesn't respond, then she'll be forced to eat soft food. She still doesn't believe this evil.
Lin Bai felt full of fighting spirit.
Tianxiang Tower.
At this time, there were countless people outside the building, including romantic talents, spectators, and various vendors. Among them, Yingying Yanyan was the most numerous, and the level of exaggeration was even greater than that of Jinling.
It is necessary. After all, those who can come to this banquet are famous talents from all over the world. There is a high probability that they will be on the list. To say the least, even if they are not on the list, they are already a candidate.
Those who hold the title are all masters, and they are fragrant and delicious.
How many rich ladies are coveting it.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Qi Renjie specially dressed up.
Um! Lin Bai didn't dress up, mainly because few people knew him. Although he was a household name, not many people knew what he looked like.
This is the benefit of ancient times. In later generations, all kinds of pornographic photos would be everywhere.
Qi Da Caizi was different. Yesterday, he showed his face at the pier. He had to dress up. He wanted to be limelight, but he was carrying someone else's name. This kind of thing... Qi Da Caizi also wanted to lose face occasionally.
The little girl's eyes were shining at this moment, and she said: "Kyoto is really different, so elegant!"
Chai Yue expressed approval.
His eyes also became wary, fearing that the Yingying Yanyan around him would recognize his uncle.
Lin Bai, on the other hand, seemed to be fine and generous.
Not to mention Xu Da, who was swallowing saliva from time to time, with the word "dry rice" written all over his face.
"You two ladies, do you want to buy a book of poetry?"
At this time, a hawker came up and looked at the little girl and Zhuiyue with a smile. The three grown men were automatically ignored and did not even look at them.
Um! To be precise, I glanced at it, and then moved away with a look of disgust. It didn't feel like I could afford it.
Women are easy to make money and this has probably been the case since ancient times.
On consumption, men? hehe!
Qi Renjie felt humiliated and said with a straight face: "What collection of poems?"
Although the hawker replied, he kept looking at the two girls, "There are many, including the latest revised edition of the Li Dynasty's 100-year poetry collection, and the Seventh Young Master of Kyoto..."
The vendor said as he took out a pile of poetry books.
There are all kinds of things.
Good guy!
The little girl asked curiously: "The Seventh Young Master of Kyoto?"
The hawker was a genius, he smiled and said: "Are the two girls from out of town? The Seventh Young Master of Kyoto is not a big deal. Those are the seven most outstanding talents in Kyoto in appearance and talent, collectively known as the Seventh Young Master."
"Young Master Mo Bai from Jixia Academy, Young Master Wenliang from Yan Xiang's family, Young Master Buyi..."
The vendors have a lot of treasures.
He praised the Seventh Young Master so much that he was worthy of all the praises in heaven and earth.
The little girl said playfully: "If you are so amazing, is he as good as the most talented person in the south of the Yangtze River?"
Zhuiyue looked disdainful, flipping through the collections of poems and saying, "That's right! Why isn't there a collection of poems by Aunt...Qingfeng Shixian?"
The hawker's eyes lit up and he said: "The two girls really know what they are selling. The most popular one is naturally the poetry collection of Qingfeng Shixian..."
As he spoke, he took out two poetry collections from his arms as if they were treasures, with "Complete Poems of Qingfeng Shixian" written on them.
"To be honest with you two girls, Qingfeng Shixian's poetry collection has become extremely popular and has been sold out for a long time. The only two copies left in my possession are these two out-of-print volumes, and this is no ordinary collection of poetry."
"Look! It's signed by Qingfeng Shixian."
"I'm not afraid to tell you that the relationship between Qingfeng Shixian and our Yawenxian owner is extraordinary. Yesterday, he went to our Yawenxuan as soon as he arrived. These two out-of-print books were out of print, but I had to go to great lengths to ask Qingfeng Shixian to sign them. The whole Kyoto Just these two books..."
Good guy!
Lin Bai said: "Good guy, are all people in ancient times so good at doing business?"
It's so well-founded that I almost believe it.
The key is that the signatures are still similar.
very good! Yawenxuan, write it down first in a small book.
The little girl and Zhuiyue couldn't help but look at each other and tried their best to suppress their laughter.
The hawker boasted for a while, and when he saw that it was almost done, he said: "You don't need ten thousand taels for this kind of out-of-print product, and you don't need a thousand taels either. You can take it home with just one hundred taels."
"Don't think it's expensive. In ancient times, a painting often cost tens of thousands of taels, and a piece of literature often cost thousands of taels. The signature of Qingfeng Shixian is so rare. With it, the breeze and the bright moon will accompany the lady to sleep from now on, and will be left to the descendants. A huge legacy…”
Poof!
The little girl finally couldn't help laughing.
Zhuiyue also covered her mouth and smiled softly, with a arrogant look on her face.
The talented scholar Qi couldn't stand it anymore and snorted coldly: "Is this piece of shit like yours worth a hundred taels? If you say this signature is fake, even if it's true..."
Before he finished speaking, Xu Da suddenly pointed at a few young ladies not far away. Each of them had a copy of Qingfeng Shixian's poems, and all of them were signed.
Seeing this, Lin Bai couldn't hold himself any longer and asked, "Did you sell all of this? One hundred taels per copy?"
The trick was exposed, but the hawker did not panic at all. Instead, he said sarcastically: "The signature is genuine, but there are just a few more copies printed, and it's only one hundred taels. You don't really want to buy the original work of Qingfeng Shixian, do you?"
He looked like he had never seen the world, leaving a few people with contemptuous looks, and then left calmly.
Several people were stunned.
What is even more unbelievable is that in the blink of an eye, the vendor sold several copies.
"Brother-in-law, are you so valuable?"
The little girl's eyes were shining.
Not only her, but Xu Da too, found a few pieces of torn paper from somewhere, handed it to Lin Bai, and said with a silly smile: "Brother-in-law, why don't you sign a few names for me too!"
