Faced with Ling Yun's repeated dissatisfaction, Xu Qiusheng could only choke up and said, "Boss Ling, Xu is really penniless. I hope that in the face of Xu devoting all his wealth, don't embarrass Xu.
Already."
Xu Qiusheng's words can be regarded as lowering his proud head and begging for mercy from Ling Yun.
After saying this, I was dejected and kept sighing, thinking to myself, what evil had I done?
Meeting such a greedy villain made him feel numb.
Seeing Xu Qiusheng's frown, Ling Yun leaned forward and said slowly, "Brother Xu, look at what you said, are you the kind of person who is blind to money? Money is something external to the body, and it can't be taken with you until you die.
."
"Besides, the sage once said that if a gentleman loves money, he should get it in a proper way. Even if a boy loves money, he must get it by using legitimate means, so that the boy can feel at ease."
Ling Yun showed an innocent smile and looked at Xu Qiusheng expectantly. He looked very much like a young man, but there was no trace of his scheming expression just now.
But in Xu Qiusheng's eyes, this innocent look was like a devil.
After Ling Yun finished speaking, he didn't forget to ask, "Brother Xu, tell me, is what this guy said right?"
Xu Qiusheng looked sad and thought, right? Don't you have a clue?
Gentlemen love fortune, in a proper way?
I had just taken eight hundred taels of silver from him, but now I told him that I had taken it in the right way.
She really took advantage of him and didn't forget to scold him.
This is like adding salt to someone's wounds.
Xu Qiusheng felt miserable, it was so miserable. Meeting this man was a bloody misfortune for eight lifetimes.
If God gives him another chance, he will never talk nonsense and point fingers at others again.
This painful lesson was deeply engraved in his mind and became an indelible shadow in his life, so that after teaching the younger generations, he always told them to listen more and talk less. If you talk too much, you will make mistakes.
Therefore, Xu Qiusheng took "A lot of words are bound to have shortcomings" and "A gentleman wants to be humble in his words but quick in his deeds" as a warning to future generations.
Facing Ling Yun's question, Xu Qiusheng frowned and said with a sad face, "Young man Ling is right, a gentleman should get money in a wise way, but Xu really only has these last twenty taels left."
As he said that, he took out the twenty taels from the package. He originally thought that these twenty taels would be used as travel expenses back home. Twenty taels would be enough for him and Wen Xingbo.
But who would have thought that what he met was Ling Yun, a jackal? This was really not even a penny left to him, so where could he cry?
Ling Yun was shocked when he saw Xu Qiusheng dig out another twenty taels from his clothes. This old guy is really a rich man!
Inexhaustible and inexhaustible.
Especially the fact that he had more than 800 taels of silver in his pocket already surprised him. He didn't expect that he would still need another 20 taels. This was really an unexpected surprise.
But then he thought about it. What Xu Qiusheng had just given him were all banknotes. The banknotes could not be used directly. They had to be exchanged into silver at a commercial bank before they could be used daily.
If you don’t have any money with you, how will you spend it?
Ling Yun had quick eyes and quick hands. As soon as Xu Qiusheng took out the money bag, he took the silver from Xu Qiusheng's hand with a snap of his fingers.
Although twenty taels is not much compared to eight hundred taels, no matter how small a fly is, it is still meat!
Where in the world are there people who despise money? The more of them the better!
In an instant, the money in his hand was gone, and Xu Qiusheng was stunned. He really didn't expect that Ling Yun, a jackal, would not refuse anyone who came.
He didn't let go of a mere twenty taels of silver. How dare he...how could he do it? This was the only twenty taels he had in the end!
I thought that Ling Yun was planning to kill them all and not give him Xu Qiusheng at all, leaving only half a tael of silver.
Being forced to have no choice but to mutter, "Boss Ling, this... this, this is Xu's last money. It is the cost of Xu's return home. Do you think you should..."
What Xu Qiusheng wanted to say was whether he should keep these twenty taels for him. If not, he might not be able to return home.
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Ling Yun waved his hand and interrupted, "Hey! Brother Xu, there is no need to say more. I will remember your love for me in my heart. When I become successful in the future, I will never forget it."
Brother Xu generously donated money to sponsor the boy today."
Hearing this, Xu Qiusheng could not sit still and said immediately, "No... Mr. Ling, this is..."
Ling Yun interrupted him again and said pointedly, "Brother Xu, you guys all know that you should never talk too much. Otherwise, if you have a guilty conscience and a guilty heart, you will be unhappy. If you are unhappy, you will easily hold grudges."
"puff!"
Xu Qiusheng never expected that Ling Yun turned back again as he spoke. He hesitated and only said "I..." and did not dare to continue. He was really greedy to the point of being outrageous.
Xu Qiusheng turned around and looked at Wen Xingbo, his eyes twitching, and he couldn't help but feel aggrieved. He hugged his friend to comfort his inner pain.
Who would have thought that Ling Yun's words were not astonishing, but he came up with this sentence, "Hey! Brother Xu thought he was a kind-hearted person, but he generously donated his money for the sake of the boy, and used all his wealth to support the boy. There is really no way to repay him, so he can only be respectful and obey his orders.
Well, if I had failed to live up to Brother Xu’s wishes, I would feel... regretful now.”
As soon as the flower appeared, Xu Qiusheng was saddened by the news. He and Wen Xingbo embraced each other and burst into tears.
"By the way, Brother Xu, about this bet..."
Ling Yun wanted to say something else, but Xu Qiusheng hugged each other and cried without turning his head.
However, he had another purpose, so no matter how sad Xu Qiusheng was, he continued, "Brother Xu, in fact, I am also a warm-hearted person. The travel expenses need to be discussed."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qiusheng looked him up and down, then threw his head back.
Warm-hearted?
Fortunately for him, he could say it out loud. This greedy and shameless villain was simply a wolf that couldn't get enough to eat.
Even so, Xu Qiusheng had no choice but to turn his head over, looked at him with tears streaming down his face, and said cautiously, "What you said...is it true?"
Ling Yun nodded and said, "Is it absolutely true?"
So the two of them looked at him expectantly, rubbing their hands together, and Wen Xingbo even swallowed his saliva.
"It's okay to pay for travel, but you have to promise me something."
When they heard that they had promised him something, they hugged each other again and pretended to cry.
Seeing this, Ling Yun said slowly, "It's a very simple thing, it's just a piece of cake for you."
Although the two of them were moved, they did not speak. Instead, they looked at him, wondering what he wanted them to do.
This is not to trick them again.
Seeing that they were silent, Ling Yun knew that they were afraid, so he could only continue, "If you write down your childhood study and imperial examination experiences one by one, you can get five taels of silver. Of course, eldest brother Xu can get ten taels."
