Ning Wuyan, who had previously communicated with his second uncle, knew that what the second uncle was reluctant to give up was not the position of official secretary without rank, but that he wanted to pave the way for his third brother Ning Wuzhen.
Now that the third brother has abandoned literature and embraced martial arts, he thinks that the second uncle's official position, which cannot be called a minor official, is worthless.
But what happens depends on the second uncle’s decision.
Originally, Ning Weiguo was only under the control of Ye Tongpan and could tolerate it. But now, seeing that Ye Tongpan wanted to use his position to blackmail Ning Wuhuang into surrendering to the Ye family, he forgave Ye Liu with a few light apology. What the two families did.
Ning Wuchang must also be controlled by Ye Tongpan. He must not miss his nephew because of his dispensable future!
"Nothing's wrong. I don't want to work for this little clerk who wakes up earlier than a chicken, goes to bed later than a dog, and takes the blame for mistakes in writing when a problem arises in a case!"
The clerkship is a regular position in the government office, but a clerk like him who is not an official official is a small non-staff clerk who works on behalf of the clerkship but does not hold a position. Counting him, there are three in the government office.
One more of him is not more, and one less of him is not less.
Ning Weiguo took off the black gauze hat on his head and threw it into Ye Tongpan's arms.
"Master Ye, I resign!"
The little clerk who usually kept his tail between his legs in the government office suddenly became tough and caught Ye Tongpan off guard.
Ning Weiguo was not threatened by him, so how could he use this matter to force Ning Wuhuang to submit?
Ye Changlong, on the other hand, was extremely happy to see this and took the opportunity to fan the flames: "Ning Weiguo, this matter is not trivial. My uncle originally wanted to promote you, so don't be shameless!"
"Screen Ning, as long as your Ning family is willing to cooperate with our Ye family, I will recommend you to become an official clerk, with an official position of ninth rank." Ye Tongpan calmed down and directly made his conditions to Ning Wuhuang: "Besides this, other Ning family members, as long as I can help, will do their best."
Everyone knows that as much as you want to get, you have to pay as much as you want.
Ning Wuyang felt that it must not be easy for Ye Tongpuan to offer such generous terms based on his status as a Poet Immortal and his current influence.
As Ning Weiguo, who has one foot in the officialdom, he naturally understands this kind of thing. He stared at Ye Tongpan warily and asked in confusion: "What does Mr. Ye plan to ask the Ning family to do?"
"It's not as difficult as going up the mountain of swords and going down into the sea of fire. I just want to invite Mr. Ning to go up to the fourth floor and meet Mr. An Xiaohou at the gathering of talents in Xiaoxiang Pavilion the day after tomorrow."
Ye Tongpian smiled fakely and squinted his eyes to hide the ambition in his eyes.
Ning Wuyan and Ning Weiguo looked at each other, and the latter was shocked and quickly shook his head to show his rejection.
no!
If you go up to the fourth floor by yourself, you will see Mr. An Xiaohou.
But if he agreed to Ye Tongpan at this time, seeing Mr. An Xiaohou would be equivalent to surrendering to the King of Jin on the spot!
"Ye Tongpan, my Ning family will not get involved in the loss of heads because of anyone's personal gain or loss. It's fine!" Ning Weiguo shouted.
Ning Wuyang immediately answered: "Master Ye, we cannot cooperate on this matter, please go back."
Wait until the perfume is publicized and everyone in Jinling knows it.
The Ning family and the Ye family will soon become unrelenting rivals.
He no longer had to give Ye Tong face at this time: "When Ye's pawn shop was robbed by force, Ye Changlong used the help of an alchemist to take my life. If the Ye family behaves like this, I will not seek skin from a tiger."
To say that the Ye family is a tiger is because Ning Wuyan promoted them.
In order to attract talents to King Jin, the Ye family, who did not hesitate to lower their body and apologize, were at most just pawns.
"The things that Ye Changlong framed me over and over again cannot be wiped out by a few verbal apologies." Ning Wuyan looked at Ye Changlong who had been sneering next to him, knowing that this guy was not sincerely apologizing.
Good thing.
He also never thought about cooperating with the Ye family.
"Master Ning, you don't have to rush to reject me." Ye Tongpan knew that Ning Wuchang would not agree so easily. If Ning Wuchang really had no character, he would not be worthy of being called a poet by Xu Jidao.
Ning Wuyan raised his eyebrows when facing Ye Tongpan, who was not panicking at all. He didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd.
Just as he was thinking about it, Ye Tongpan took out a roll of tissue paper from his sleeve and waved it in front of him: "Mr. Ning may not know how difficult the questions at the Gathering of Talents are, and there are so many questions in Jinling and even Jiangnan Road. How many people are eyeing your title of Poet Immortal, eager to snatch it away."
"I know."
Ning Wuyan was once frivolous when he was young, and he also came from an age when he didn't obey anyone.
What's more, this is an era that emphasizes culture and restrains martial arts. The golden sign of Shixian is welded to one's body, which is equivalent to a lifetime of worry-free future.
Of course he knew how many people wanted to replace him.
"You..." Ye Tongpan choked for a moment when he saw the calm Ning Wuyan, and quickly adjusted his nervous expression and tone, and continued to induce: "I am willing to keep the title of Shixian with Mr. Ning, as long as Ning Gongzi cooperated with me, and the topic of climbing the fourth floor belongs to Ning Gongzi."
Ye Tongpan actually revealed the question to himself in advance? !
Ning Wuyan finally showed a look of astonishment.
Ning Weiguo was stunned.
Seeing the uncle and nephew react like this, Ye Changlong, who had been watching the show, finally became nervous.
If Ning Wuhuang agrees, all his previous efforts will be in vain.
"If Ning Wuhan agrees to cooperate with my Ye family, from now on, you will never use the reputation of my Ye family to do anything wrong!" Ye Changlong's sudden interruption caused Ye Tongpuan to give him a warning look.
What's the rush!
Conditions that restrict the Ning family like this must wait until the win-over is successful. At that time, the Ning family will be at their disposal.
Bringing it up at this time will only make the Ning family hesitate and make it difficult to make a decision.
But Ye Changlong was not moved at all. Instead, he stretched out his hand towards Ning Wuhuang and said arrogantly: "Return the 10,000 taels to me first, and you can pay back the remaining 90,000 taels slowly in the future."
"Looking at Mr. Ye's attitude, it doesn't look like he wants our Ning family to cooperate. Instead, he wants us Ning family to become subordinates of the Ye family and let you do whatever you want."
Ning Wuyan's words made Ye Tongpan's face look full of embarrassment, but he did not refute.
And Ye Changlong was still shouting deliberately: "So what? We will keep your title of Poet Immortal and pave the road to officialdom for your Ning family. Isn't it right for you to work for our Ye family?"
Ye Tongpan did not refute these words.
Because that's what he thinks and plans to do.
Ning Wuyang saw that the two foxes finally showed their tails and sneered silently: "In that case, there is nothing to say. I can keep the title of Shixian without cheating. As for the ten thousand taels of silver, I will give it to them in accordance with the contract. Two hundred bottles of perfume are being sent to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. You two, please go ahead without sending them."
"Ning Wuyan, don't toast me and you'll be punished by drinking wine!"
Ye Tongpan saw that he showed such sincerity and would rather stay in peace than anything else. Finally, he became angry with shame, and a murderous intention flashed in his eyes.
If he hadn't personally recommended Ning Wuyan to An Xiaohou, he would definitely have found someone more obedient to replace him.
Ning Wuyan didn't pay attention to Ye Tongpan's intention at all.
Since Ye Tongpan refused to leave, he and his second uncle simply walked back to the shop.
boom.
Close the door.
Ye Tongpan, who caught up directly, was rejected again.
"Ning! Wu! I'm sick!"
Ye Tongpan stood at the gate, roaring angrily.
I wish I could have people surround Ping An Medical Center at this moment, take Ning Wuchang out, torture him, and force him to surrender.
