Of course Lu Jing was interested. After all, according to Wen Xiaochuan, the return gift prepared by her mother, Aunt Wen, was really generous, much better than that of Zhu Jie, a wealthy official from the Chen family.
Take the last time as an example, together they can almost help Lu Jing pay off all his debts in advance. In this way, all the money he earned from selling ginseng can fall into his own pocket. Thinking about this, Lu Jing The scenery is still very moving.
However, he always felt that something was not right. Lu Jing thought for a while and said, "It seems that we are not too familiar... Why would you think of me first when such a good thing comes?"
"Because you are strong enough." Wen Xiaochuan clapped his fingers and said, "Not to mention anything else, each of my six brothers-in-law is a dragon among men. If I want to take anyone back with me, I might as well go directly It’s good to give up.”
"Where's Yan Yun? If I remember correctly, you two have always had a good relationship."
"We have a good relationship, but Sister Yan and my second brother-in-law are a bit uncomfortable. To be precise, there was a small friction between Yunshui Jingci Pavilion and my second brother-in-law's Leihuo Hall some time ago. In order to avoid embarrassment, Sister Yan I just decided not to go.”
Wen Xiaochuan's answer was spotless, and Lu Jing didn't hear any problem anyway.
But he was still a little uneasy and asked, "If I take away the heavy gift your mother prepared, what good will it do to you?"
"I brought you back, and if you win, my face will naturally shine." Wen Xiaochuan put his hands on his hips and said, "Don't underestimate a woman's persistence in face, besides, she is a woman of our Wen family.
"Since the day I was born, I have been compared with my sisters all the time. Unfortunately, I, the youngest, have been the real youngest since I was a child, and I have never won once."
Wen Xiaochuan laughed at himself when he said this, "People say that I am proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they don't know that my third sister is a hundred times better than me in everything. In terms of talent, I can't keep up with her. They say that I am good at dancing and exquisite in all directions. However, this is just me. The second sister is a poor imitation. But compared to her appearance, my sixth sister is truly the best in the world, a peerless beauty. No man in this world can match her look back and smile.
"I know I shouldn't be jealous, and besides, it's my family, but I'm really unwilling to do so, because even I, the youngest who have nothing to do and have always lived in the shadow of my sisters, occasionally I also want to win once.”
Lu Jing listened quietly to Wen Xiaochuan's words. Perhaps it was because he knew that the girl was from the Wen family and had extraordinary means. Lu Jing had always been dubious about Wen Xiaochuan's words in the past, and basically listened to half of them and left half to them, but this time he could feel that at least The girl rarely opened up her heart about her childhood journey.
So Lu Jing also comforted him, "You and I grew up in different environments. We didn't have so many brothers and sisters, so it may be difficult to empathize with us. But in my opinion, everyone has their own things they are good at and things they are not good at. Instead of always holding the It is better to compare your own shortcomings with the strengths of others than to explore your own strengths.
"Besides, you have six sisters, each with their own specialties. You always choose the best one among them to compare. Of course, no one can compare with you."
"I understand the truth," Wen Xiaochuan smiled bitterly, "But I still want to win once, what should I do?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Lu Jing secretly with her eyes. Lu Jing thought about it and felt that it was not impossible to give it a try. Anyway, the birthday celebration only lasted one day, and at most it would be like going to whoring for free.
Although the last time he had this idea was yesterday, and the development of things after that was hard to describe, and the meal was bloody, this time he was going to Wen Xiaochuan's house, so there shouldn't be any danger.
So Lu Jing finally nodded and said to Wen Xiaochuan, "Okay, when do you plan to leave?"
"How about the morning after tomorrow?" Wen Xiaochuan said happily after hearing this.
"There's nothing wrong with me here," Lu Jing paused and added, "By the way, the ginseng digger..."
"I know a person who just happened to have the idea of making money recently, but..."
"Just what?"
"He may be a little resistant to you, but I should be able to convince him to go find you this afternoon." Wen Xiaochuan said confidently.
"That's good."
Lu Jing didn't pay much attention when he heard this. He had always been controversial among the disciples of the academy because of his maverick behavior. It was normal for some people to dislike him. Fortunately, he was not going on a blind date. He didn't need to be in love with each other. He just wanted to come. As long as there is no problem with people doing their jobs.
The above was what Lu Jing was thinking at the time. However, when he saw the person Wen Xiaochuan found for him, there were only two words left in his mind - Damn it!
"Why is it you?!" Lu Jing blurted out as he looked at Chen Hanqing standing outside the courtyard.
Chen Hanqing also had a dark face. He didn't look like someone who came to apply for a job, but more like he came to collect debts.
After hearing Lu Jing's words, his already dark face seemed to be a little darker. If he added a crescent moon to his forehead, he would be directly dragged to the set to shoot the young boy Bao Qingtian.
Lu Jing really didn't expect Wen Xiaochuan to find this great master for him. After all, not long ago, Chen Hanqing had made a challenge to him in order to "rob" Wen Xiaochuan, but he turned around and came to work for him again.
This turning point was a bit too big, and Lu Jing was unable to turn the corner for a while.
When Chen Hanqing saw that Lu Jing didn't speak again, he just left him there. He felt that Lu Jing was deliberately humiliating him and couldn't help but get angry. However, what surprised Lu Jing was that he didn't just walk away. people.
Instead, he suppressed his anger again, then snorted and said, "I heard that you are looking for someone to help you dig ginseng."
"Oh, that's right."
"One hundred and fifty taels of silver a day?"
"…………"
Seeing Lu Jing's delay in answering, Chen Hanqing sneered, "Why, you thought your bid was too high before, do you regret it now? If you don't have so much money, don't imitate others and pretend to be wealthy."
"I..." Lu Jing was about to open his mouth to argue, but Chen Hanqing waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, okay, one hundred taels of silver a day, and my time is very precious. If it's less, you can hire someone else." "
"That's not good." Lu Jing didn't know how Wen Xiaochuan helped him trick Chen Hanqing into coming over, and he actually gave him a 25% discount on the lowest price he offered.
Of course, the one who was more ruthless was Chen Hanqing himself. Before Lu Jing could say anything, he stabbed himself again, and this time he slashed right on the artery, cutting off another third of his wages.
Lu Jing could only lament in his heart that this guy was a wolf.
