Early in the morning, Li Huan got up and went hunting in the forest!
Because of the news he learned yesterday, the Xu family has now bought almost all the meat in Guobei County.
Causing meat prices to rise rapidly!
Zhang Daqiang brought money that could usually buy a chicken yesterday, but in the end he only bought a few chicken feet, which shows!
"If I can catch some game and sell it in the county, I will definitely make a lot of money!"
Li Huan felt that instead of waiting at home for a job to come to him, he might as well take the initiative himself!
I don’t know if it was the wrong time or the wrong place he was looking for.
After working all morning, I caught a big rooster!
Moreover, there is something special about this rooster;
The whole body is black and white, with only a bunch of red hair on the chest!
The cockscomb is even more strangely bifurcated, falling to the left and right!
This chicken is big, about half a person tall.
The portion was quite large. Li Huan grabbed it in his hand and initially estimated it weighed 25 kilograms!
"If this chicken is sold, it will definitely be worth a lot of money!"
Li Huan happily took the chicken to the county!
The county town at this time was different from the past.
It's a bit messy!
Everyone seems to have set off a rush to buy!
Needless to say, the meat stalls were all robbed.
The vegetable stall next to it was also crowded with people.
What’s more, some people are even hoarding other daily necessities!
"Daozhang Li, we are really destined, why did I see you again?"
Just when Li Huan was thinking about how to sell the chicken in his hand, Zhao Liangcai's familiar voice came over!
Li Huan turned around and looked,
At this time, Zhao Liangcai's face looked a little haggard, and there were a lot of red bloodshot eyes in his eyes, as if he had not slept all night.
"Brother Zhao, are you going to Chunhua Tower to participate in the poetry meeting again?"
Zhao Liangcai’s daily schedule is either attending a poetry meeting or on his way to a poetry meeting.
Apart from that, I don’t seem to have seen him do anything serious!
Zhao Liangcai cupped his hands and said, "What a joke!"
"I studied hard all night last night and was a little sleepy in the morning. I didn't want to go!"
"But when I stayed at home, I felt empty inside, as if there was something important to do, so I wanted to go out and relax!"
"No, as soon as I leave the house, my body goes to Chunhua Building on its own!"
"The elegant atmosphere of the poetry club suits me!"
"What is Director Li doing so early?"
"Could it be that there is another ghost causing trouble?"
Li Huan lifted the big game rooster in his hand: "Oh, I caught a chicken and want to sell it at the market to make some money!"
Zhao Liangcai stared at the slightly strange-looking chicken for several times: "This chicken is quite beautiful!"
Then he thought again and suggested.
"Daozhang Li, let me help you sell this chicken!"
"You can't sell it for much money here!"
Li Huan asked curiously: "Then where do you want to sell it?"
A smile appeared in Zhao Liangcai's eyes: "I can guarantee you that at the poetry festival, this chicken can be sold for ten taels or more!"
"So many?" Li Huan was surprised when he heard Zhao Liangcai's words, and then said decisively: "Brother Zhao, I leave this chicken to you!"
"Don't worry, I'll keep it with you!" Zhao Liangcai patted his chest to confirm: "You can follow me later and don't do anything. If I tell you to take it out, take it out again!"
Li Huan didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, but he nodded in agreement.
Guobei County says it’s big or not.
It didn't take long before Chunhua Tower was in sight!
At night, there is a constant flow of people coming and going, but during the day it becomes sparse!
Only a few or two people dressed as literary men got inside!
Most of them are young men from well-off families who don’t have to work!
The poetry club is held in a large private room on the third floor, which is reserved all year round and is used as a gathering place for these 'literati and elegant guests'!
"Mr. Zhao, you are finally here!"
"This poem would be much inferior without you!"
As soon as he entered the door, several literati stood up to say hello to Zhao Liangcai!
"Brother Zhao, who is this person behind you? He looks quite good, and he looks familiar!"
Yesterday, Ziyuan walked up to Li Huan in public and asked his name. Many people were present!
It's just that most people only paid attention to Ziyuan's turbulent waves, and basically had no time to pay attention to the rest, so they only felt that it looked familiar!
Zhao Liangcai said without leaving a trace: "This is a cousin of mine, and he is also here to gain experience. Don't worry about him!"
Another young man with a pink face next to him boasted.
"Brother Zhao, last time you said, 'Where can a beautiful woman teach me to play the flute?' Your skill shocked everyone, and it made our poem look ridiculous and pathetic!"
"What the hell, Brother Qin is overly praised!" Zhao Liangcai bowed his hands in all directions in an extremely humble manner!
Li Huan never expected that Zhao Liangcai, who usually seemed to be carefree and not doing his job properly, would be so respected in this poetry meeting, and he looked like a great poet!
"Brother Zhao, can you bring us another beautiful verse today that will be sung through the ages?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of agreement from all around!
Zhao Liangcai was not too modest, but asked: "What is the title of today's poetry meeting?"
The previous Mr. Qin replied: "Today's question is 'Field War'!"
"Just now Mr. Liu wrote a poem, 'The horns sound urgently, the guns and drums beat, stand up like the sea, fight to the end of the yellow sand!'"
Zhao Liangcai nodded when he heard this: "Okay, what a 'fight to eliminate the yellow and kill the dead'!"
Li Huan was a little curious: What's so good about it?
He originally wanted to wait for Zhao Liang to explain, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see him continue!
Mr. Qin smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao, are you interested in reciting a song?"
"Many of the people here are here from other counties and want to see the first poet in Guangling County!"
These words directly drew the attention of everyone present to Zhao Liangcai, and there was silence!
I saw that Zhao Liangcai was not in a hurry.
He slowly poured a cup of tea from the table, and then drank it in one gulp!
After drinking the tea, he slowly put the cup down.
"Yes!"
He suddenly said,
Everyone in the audience was perked up and listened attentively!
Many people even picked up pens and were ready to start recording!
"The stone path up the Hanshan Mountain is sloping!"
“Everywhere I look is deserted!”
"Stop and sit in Love Fenglinwan!"
"Jade cheeks are as red as February flowers!"
When the poem is finished, everything is silent!
Even some people who were struggling to write stopped writing!
"What a poem, what a poem!"
That Mr. Qin was the first to express his admiration!
"This poem is so wonderful!"
"The first two sentences highlight the word 'wild'!"
"The stone path is sloping up the cold mountain in the distance! I went up to the high mountain in the distance, and the climate around me has become cooler. I can see how high the mountain is, how eccentric the path is, and how wild it is!"
"Everywhere I look there is no one home! Why is there no home? Because I am in the wild and inaccessible!"
"None of these two sentences is wild, but each sentence highlights the wild environment!"
"The last two sentences are even rarer in the world!"
"Stop and sit in the maple forest at night, your jade cheeks will be as red as the February flowers!"
"There is not a single word 'war' in these two sentences, but from these fourteen short words, we can see how intense the battle is!"
"Stop and sit for love. The last two sentences start by calling names and starting a fight. They also make a pun to explain the posture. They are sitting!"
"What does Feng Linwan mean? That means fighting from day to night!"
"Isn't it intense? Of course it is. The girl's face is redder than the flowers in February!"
"Brother Zhao did not directly highlight the frontal battle situation between the two sides, but used side descriptions to further highlight the intensity!"
"This poem is really a wonderful chapter that combines emotions with scenery and blends scenes together!"
"The whole poem closely follows the theme of 'field war', writing a new realm and a new height!"
"It can be said that without saying a word, you can be very romantic!"
"Master Zhao is worthy of being the number one poetry and literary talent in the entire Guangling County!"
After the comments were completed, the audience burst into endless applause!
Even Li Huan was affected and couldn't help but want to applaud!
But he was holding a chicken in his hand and it was not easy to applaud, so he gave up!
After Zhao Liangcai finished his poem, he sat down calmly and continued to drink tea!
But all the young men around him were "shocked" by the poem just now, and there were no decent poems after it, so they had to give it up hastily!
"Brother Zhao's poems are so dazzling, it seems that we are a little short of words!"
"Today's poetry competition ends here!"
"I hope you will continue to work hard and create more good sentences in the future, so as to contribute to our literary world in the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
Mr. Qin announced the end of the first session: "The next step is the 'wine tasting'!"
"You can show off all the good wines you have found for everyone here to taste!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a scholar stood up immediately!
"Oh, what good things will Mr. Zhou Yue of Xingyi County bring us?" Mr. Qin explained in time to let everyone know his identity!
Zhou Yue bowed his hands to all around, and then said.
"What I brought today is the secret medicinal wine that my Zhou family has inherited for hundreds of years!"
"It was made by distilling and soaking the whips of 7749 kinds of rare animals, and mixed with 8864 kinds of expensive herbs. It took five years to be considered a success!"
"After drinking this kind of wine, you can fight ten times without falling, and fight ten women without being timid!"
"I don't know, everyone, what do you think?"
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, most of the young masters present had a look of anticipation on their faces!
"let me try!"
A slightly thin young man stepped forward and directly asked to try it!
Zhou Yue immediately poured a small glass: "This wine is a bit medicinal, don't drink too much at one time!"
As soon as the taster finished drinking, his back, which had been a little rickety, immediately straightened up!
The pale face instantly turned extremely red, and the whole person became a little restless!
He made a fist!
"Come and feel it!"
"This wine is really great!"
"I think I can hit ten!"
With the first one expressing his thoughts, others rushed forward to try it out.
Zhao Liangcai smiled slightly, as if he didn't care much, but he didn't show it too much!
But Li Huan on the side felt that these young masters were a bit boring!
We get together every day, blow water on each other, drink wine,
At the end of the day, it can be said that I didn’t do anything, but everyone seemed to be having a great time!
Everyone watching next to him yawned!
Zhao Liangcai said that he would sell chickens for him, but there has been no movement so far. Li Huan doesn't know what kind of medicine he is selling in his gourd!
Next,
Others offered the aged wines they had found, tasting them and complimenting each other again!
After the drinking session is over, the next step is dancing!
At this point, many people get excited!
Many beautiful dancers came in and danced some hot Western-style dance music.
But the movements are more bold and unrestrained,
Coupled with the slightly revealing clothes, everyone present, especially those who had just drunk the medicinal wine, were even more restless and wanted to pick up their guns and go into battle immediately!
But the people here are all well-known people from various counties, and they still have to put on some pretense, so they can only pretend that nothing happened, and they are very appreciative!
When the dance ended, the audience burst into loud applause!
Immediately afterwards, it was time for the last step!
It was already noon, and several banquet tables were set out!
The girls who were dancing before also sat next to each young man!
"This is the chief dancer of the 'Youth Song and Dance Ensemble', Miss Shi Ming!"
"Her dancing skills are famous throughout Guangling County. Even the county guard once invited her to dance at his home!"
"I want to ask her to dance, but the price is not low!"
As soon as the banquet started, Mr. Qin gave a brief introduction!
Although the appearance of that girl Shi Ming is not outstanding, she is much worse than Zi Yuan.
But it’s also very beautiful,
What's even more rare is that she has a good figure, dazzling dancing posture, and can perform various difficult movements.
A pair of long, smooth and white legs, tough and strong!
Many young masters cast coveted glances from time to time!
Shi Ming smiled lightly and sat down next to Zhao Liangcai.
When he saw Li Huan next to him for the first time, his eyebrows lit up.
Immediately he turned his attention to Zhao Liangcai.
"Is this Mr. Zhao?"
"The Nu family heard that you are the most talented person in Guangling County. When I saw you today, you are indeed well-deserved. I wonder if you can spare some time to write a poem for our dance troupe?"
These song and dance troupes often adapt poems by famous contemporary literati into dance music.
Shi Ming asked Zhao Liangcai for words and sentences, and indirectly recognized his literary talent!
Mr. Qin smiled and said, "Miss Shi Ming is really good at seizing opportunities!"
"I know that our great talent Zhao has been admitted to the Holy Confucian Academy. I'm afraid he won't be able to come to this poetry meeting in the future, so I'll hurry up and get two poems to keep him at the bottom of the box!"
Hearing this, Shi Ming lightly covered Cherry's little mouth and said in surprise: "It turns out that Mr. Zhao has been admitted to the Saint Confucian Academy. He is really amazing!"
"No matter what I say today, I will toast you three glasses of wine!"
Zhao Liangcai just waved his hand and said with a smile: "Miss Shi Ming, you're welcome!"
"By the way, I have a question for you!"
Shi Ming said politely: "I wonder if Mr. Zhao has any questions that he wants to ask. I will definitely answer them all!"
Zhao Liangcai asked very seriously: "I wonder if Miss Shi Ming can eat chicken?"
Hearing this, Shi Ming was suddenly stunned and a little at a loss!
"Our dance company...should not...should not...expand this business yet!"
When he said this, Shi Ming was a little hesitant. He didn't know whether he was shy or too shocked to know what to say!
A nun who looked like an accountant from the Youth Song and Dance Troupe next to her immediately took over the conversation and asked Mr. Qin:
"There is no such service in what we originally negotiated, right?"
"This price has to be calculated separately!"
Zhao Liangcai also continued: "My chicken is very big! The price must be higher!"
The nanny glanced at Zhao Liangcai's key parts: "It's big?"
"What storms and waves have I not seen in all these years?"
"It's a mule or a horse, pull it out and run around!"
Zhao Liangcai said to Li Huan: "Daozhang Li, take it out!"
Li Huan nodded and immediately took up the chicken that was as tall as half a man in his hand.
The grandma looked stunned and couldn't help but said: "What a big chicken!"
