He couldn't figure out what was wrong, and found that the reactions of Su Yingtao and the four others were suddenly abnormal.
Zhang Manqu over there had already responded to Yu Qing's question, "I'm afraid that's the case for the time being." He seemed a little embarrassed to reply to Yu Qing's words, and looked at Xu Fei to resolve, "Brother Xu, Zhang Bang How will you be doing in the future?"
"Uh..." Xu Fei really didn't know how to answer for a while.
Zhong'er acted as if he didn't hear anything and continued to add water to everyone.
A smile appeared on Yu Qing's lips, but he wanted to see how Xu Fei, who knew the answer in advance, would answer.
He was not interested in Xu Fei's departure or stay. He could sit down and chat with a few people like this, and even mentioned the words of the richest man in the capital, just to know the whereabouts of Su Yingtao and Zhan Muchun.
There was no way, these people were so impressed with him that Ashheng couldn't show up in front of them at all.
After the test, he will find a way to make a few people disappear from this world.
He didn't handle the matter well and caused it. He couldn't leave such a big hidden danger for Ashheng. He had to clean this ass.
As for Xu Fei, he has a clue. After the demon world came out, he also told lies to deceive Lizhou and Sinan Mansion. In addition, he had to pay thousands of taels of silver. He should be able to introduce him to Ashheng in the future.
"We haven't decided yet. We'll wait and see what happens." Xu Fei was vague.
After a while, everyone's conversation returned to the topic of the exam. Yu Qing's goal had been achieved and he stopped saying anything. When everyone asked him again, he waved his hands and said he had forgotten.
Poor excuse, no cover up at all, just so straightforward.
Seeing him like this, everyone stopped asking questions and continued talking about themselves.
Yu Qing listened obediently and waited for Xu Fei to pay.
Lunch time was almost here, so Xu Fei naturally invited everyone to have dinner at Cao Mansion. However, Yu Qing was really impatient to listen to these people's chatter and didn't want to wait any longer. He made an excuse and agreed that he had to go back to his 'uncle's house'. Then he hinted to Xu Fei, "Can I give you the receipt now?" He reached out his hand and was about to take it out from his sleeve.
Xu Fei pressed his hand, asked the others to wait, and took Yu Qing away first.
In the end, Yu Qing got his wish and received four thousand taels of silver notes from Cao's accountant. After receiving the money, he was also very trustworthy and returned the IOU neatly.
The matter finally came to an end, and Xu Fei breathed a sigh of relief. When he walked out of the accounting room, he couldn't help but ask, "Is that Zhong of your uncle's family really the richest man in the capital?"
He didn't understand how the nephew of the richest man in the capital could be so virtuous.
Looking at the Cao Mansion's grandeur, Yu Qing knew that something couldn't be hidden here, and he admitted honestly: "No, don't you see that those people are snobbish? If I don't pull some stunts, I'm afraid they will be rude to me. After all, this is It's your family, I'm afraid it will make things difficult for you. I'm just doing it for your own good, just to smooth things over." He didn't hide that he was lying, and added, "Of course, if you like to see their reaction after knowing the truth, wait. You can tell them after I’m gone.”
He was not afraid that Su Yingtao and others would know the truth, so what if they knew? If you tease them, you can get some courtesy. If you don't, there will be nothing. Anyway, he won't feel embarrassed.
Xu Fei was speechless. He exposed it in person and embarrassed a few people. It was almost as if he had a mental illness.
After being reminded by Yu Qing, he didn't dare to speak nonsense.
After dumbfounding, he again politely invited Yu Qing to stay for dinner.
Yu Qing also refused again. He first found Chong'er and took back the fire cricket, and then expressed his desire to meet Xu Fei's uncle.
Xu Fei shook his head: "My uncle is almost never at home during the day. He mostly goes out to socialize. What do you see him doing?"
Yu Qing gestured to the jar with fire crickets in his hand, "You know the origin of this thing clearly. It is something that even Youya wants. The rich water does not go to other people's fields. Instead of selling it to others, it is better to sell it to yourself." Man, help me ask your uncle if he is interested. The price agreed before will remain unchanged, just ten thousand taels!"
Xu Fei wanted to ask him, who is your friend? However, there are some words that can only be kept in the heart, "I appreciate Brother Shiheng's kindness. Our family really doesn't need it. You'd better find another buyer."
If it were other sellers, if he didn't look at the price, he might have bought the fresh and rare ones from Tuhuo Cricket. But the seller was Yu Qing, and he was inexplicably repelled. It felt like he didn't want it even if it was given to him for free.
Yu Qing refused to give up easily, "Forget it, for the sake of our friendship, how about eight thousand taels?"
Xu Fei said helplessly: "Brother Shiheng, you don't know what kind of existence Youya is. No one can figure out what Youya wants this thing for. No one knows whether it is an advantage or a disadvantage to keep this thing in your hands. I When ordinary people really don't dare to mess with it easily, and you can't buy something that is inexplicable and may cause trouble just for the sake of novelty, you should find another buyer, our family really doesn't dare to touch it."
At this point, Yu Qing could no longer force himself and could only say goodbye.
After leaving Cao's Mansion, he got on the carriage. The carriage drove away, and Yu Qing's carriage shook slightly.
He picked up the metal can containing fire crickets and looked at it. "Alas!" He sighed, and suddenly realized that this thing was not easy to sell.
It was Xu Fei's words that reminded him that things related to Youya made his heart tremble when he heard them. Rich people couldn't figure out what was going on and would not dare to buy them easily.
But the problem is, if he doesn't mention anything about Youya and just sells it as an ordinary rare item, it seems that he can't sell it at a high price, and he is not willing to sell it at a low price. It must be worth at least a thousand taels to be able to live in it. An adventure in the Tomb Wasteland, right?
However, even if you sell it for a thousand taels, you still have to find a wealthy family. Not many ordinary people can afford a thousand taels of silver, so how can they spend a thousand taels to buy this thing.
Even if it's five hundred taels or three hundred taels, it's still the same.
His bottom line is three hundred taels. If it is less than this amount, it is better to raise it by yourself. Although it is a bit troublesome to kill animals every three days and feed them bones in the mountains, at least it can save some firewood for boiling water.
Thinking of this, I felt that the most indispensable thing in the mountains was firewood to boil water. It saves the trouble of boiling water but adds the trouble of making bones.
The biggest problem is, who knows how long this thing can live? Most bugs have a short lifespan. If it is like some ordinary bugs and dies in less than a year, then... He silently lowered the bottom line of the price. Really If not, I’ll sell it for a hundred taels!
The more I thought about it, the more troubled I became, so I gave it up and put down the fire cricket to find something happy to do. I took out the banknote I just got and counted it happily again.
No more, no less, and another four thousand taels, I couldn't help but kiss him, and then I stuffed it back into my arms comfortably, opened the curtains and looked at the capital outside the window.
Kill people, make money, quit the world of mortals, go back to the mountains to meditate, and occasionally think about beauties. This was his plan after participating in the general examination. It was his responsibility to put Linglong Temple in order, and then I would be the biggest in Linglong Temple, be a carefree leader, and enjoy the enjoyment that the young girls in Jiupo Village admired the most. eyes...
"Sir, Liu Mansion has arrived."
The carriage stopped at the door of a mansion. Yu Qing got out of the carriage and went to the door in person to find Mr. Xi Ming, the teacher of the Liu Mansion.
As a result, Liu Mansion informed that Mr. Ming had taken leave of absence to help Zhong Mansion raise his son to participate in the examination and had never come back.
Yu Qing was surprised, so he asked where Mr. Ming lived, and then searched around again.
He had nothing else to do with Mr. Ming, just like Xu Fei and others discussed the test questions. It is estimated that the news about the test questions will soon spread, and will also reach Mr. Ming’s ears. I think Mr. Ming will be shocked when he hears the test questions. You will realize that he has mastered the test questions in advance.
He had already planned to have a talk with Mr. Ming afterwards to avoid uncontrollable situations.
However, when we found Mr. Ming's house, there were only two beauties in the small courtyard house, and Mr. Ming was not there.
The two beauties were paid by the Liu Mansion and the Zhong Mansion to serve Mr. Ming. According to them, Mr. Ming came back on the day of the exam, packed some things, and left the capital. He said he wanted to go out for a walk. I have never seen him again, and I don’t know where he went or when he will come back.
Yu Qing was dumbfounded, where could he find this?
I had no choice but to leave with a knot in my heart, worried that Mr. Ming would not be able to think of filing a complaint.
There was a situation that might cause problems, and he was so worried that he gave up the idea of looking for the fire cricket seller for a while, and began to inquire about the whereabouts of Mr. Ming...
Gongyuan is still heavily guarded. It seems quiet on the surface, but the busy situation inside makes many people worried.
After the candidates came out, the Gongyuan was tightly sealed again. The candidates' papers were not allowed to leave, and the relevant personnel sent by the imperial court to preside over the examination were not allowed to leave either. In other words, after the candidates leave, the relevant officials will continue to be imprisoned for a period of time until the results of all the examination papers are determined!
It is not an easy task to judge all the papers of tens of thousands of people in a short period of time, and the pressure on the paper judges is not small.
The examination room is divided into four rooms. Each room has an examiner. Each examiner is also called the president of the examination. The four examination questions are assigned by the four examiners, and the questions are judged accordingly. Reading the same type and the same question content in each room makes me feel numb to a certain extent. You can almost tell at a glance whether the content of the test paper is good or bad, and the answer paper that is not good will be easily dismissed.
In the essay room, a group of judges were reading papers. One of them, a fat judge, pulled out the next paper in order. His expression, which had been numb after sitting for a long time, suddenly moved slightly. His eyes became brighter, and there were good handwriting on the paper. Let him wake up a little bit.
Good calligraphy but no knowledge of writing? He murmured in his mind and looked at the paper from the beginning.
As he watched, he slowly straightened up his waist, which was already a little hunched over. He put one elbow on the table to support his chin, and the five fingers of the other hand tapped gently and rhythmically on the table. From time to time, a look of rapt attention appeared on his face. My thoughts and feelings were obviously guided by the content on the paper, and I was mentally weighing the pros and cons with it.
At the end, he closed his hands and leaned back, holding his stomach with both hands. His thumbs moved a lot, and he pursed his lips tightly, with a look of confusion on his face.
In the end, he still didn't dare to judge the paper easily. He stood up, took the paper and walked towards the president of Fu Lun Room.
