(If you get what you wish, you will get three updates, but it will fall to the end of the list, and the situation is in critical condition. Please continue to ask for support!)

Tongjiang crosses Jizhou, with turbulent waves, turning west, and finally roaring into the Yellow River. One of the basins happened to pass by outside Anfu, which was very spectacular.

There are three major city governments under the jurisdiction of Jizhou, and Dao'an Palace is one of them.

Today's eighth day of the lunar month is the grand day of the Dao'an Poetry Festival. By dusk, there were boats and oars everywhere on the Tongjiang River outside the city, thousands of sails competed, and it was very lively.

The Dao'an Poetry Festival is held for three nights each. It has a long history and is well-known, and is well-known throughout Jizhou. The selected poems and songs are many popular works. Some scholars from poor backgrounds become famous in their poems, and even get appreciated by great officials and nobles. They leaps into the dragon gate and become famous in the career of celebrities.

Therefore, every year, I go to the Dao'an Poetry Conference, hoping to make a name for myself, and I don't know how many scholars are like crucian carp crossing the river.

In addition to literati and poets, there are also business families and brothels who participated in the poetry meeting. Brothels in this era are definitely not simply dirty places. The famous prostitutes, such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, are proficient in everything, and have a beautiful appearance. Their conversation etiquettes trained since childhood have always been pursued by nobles and literary masters. I don’t know how many well-known romantic stories have been interpreted, and many famous works that have been passed down through the ages have been born.

An old saying goes: "Sheeden's brothel is refreshing, and she loves to enter the world and has many inspirations." It's not a big deal.

There is also a famous aphorism: To experience life, you must not only go deeper, but also intervene, insert, and never be just an outsider...

It really makes sense.

The Daoan Poetry Conference was prosperous and had a huge scale. Each session was held, which cost a lot of money. This expense could not be borne by the government. If there were smart officials, they wanted to give merchants a model to participate, so that the merchants could make large donations to fund the poetry conference.

On the contrary, businesses that were not in the elegant hall could also be qualified to participate in poetry meetings, and could elect a representative to write poems and compete for reputation—

This is why Jiang Zhinian found Ye Junsheng.

However, over the years, the scholars that merchants can invite are limited in talent, and most of them are those who are down and outsized scholars, and even scholars cannot get the exam. It is difficult for such people to write decent articles and poems; it is impossible to compete with those talented men.

Therefore, merchant representatives are always the role of accompanying the prince to study every year; even if this is the case, they have to accompany them if they don’t. After all, the government has indicators. If a merchant offends the government, he will not be able to take advantage of it. The only way to maximize profits is to set up his own business sign, which is equivalent to spending money to advertise.

The most powerful way to advertise is to have a high level of representatives, and to pass the primary selection, the poems are favored by the judges and spread.

Example: There is a poem written today, which was written by a certain businessman on behalf of someone...

With this remark, the name of the merchant came out, playing a wide-ranging effect.

Therefore, in order to gain a position, many wealthy merchants will spend high prices to hire some good representatives. However, since ancient times, scholars have regarded themselves as noble and regarded money as a slut. Those with a little fame will not be willing to cooperate with merchants, let alone those with fame.

This time, Jiang Zhinian invited Ye Junsheng, but did not sign any agreement. There was no remuneration, and at most it could only be considered a free trip.

In fact, from Jiang Zhinian's perspective, the fact that he brought Ye Junsheng to the poetry meeting was actually a support.

Ye Junsheng was a book-boy, and turned a blind eye to things outside the window. He has lived in a study full of books since he was a child. He was a model of "otaku". If he didn't come out, he naturally had no chance to show his talent. Others have no way to understand, and they don't know what books this person has read and what knowledge he has learned over the years... Or he has been stupid and his brain has been bad, otherwise how could he not take the exam for fame and fortune, and he has a miserable life and still have to support his sister?

It's just a useless person!

For many years, no businessman dared to invite such a person to be a representative.

Isn't this ridiculous? If you make some idiotic jokes, you will be smashed by the signboard, and you will be smashed by the gentleness.

Now, Jiang Zhinian has invited him.

This invitation is not about how confident Ye Junsheng is, but more about compensation - compensation for Ye Junsheng's automatic termination of the engagement.

Because Jiang Zhinian felt sorry for Ye Junsheng's grandfather.

This is a very subtle emotional fluctuation.

Therefore, when this suggestion was strongly opposed by Jiang's mother, Jiang Zhinian still suppressed it. But Jiang's mother also had her position. She said that since the two families had terminated the engagement and had no relationship, how could they be involved again? This would ruin Jiang Jing'er's reputation.

Jiang Zhinian thought about it and simply asked Jiang Jinger to make a decision.

Surprisingly, Jiang Jing'er, the heroine, actually agreed to invite Ye Junsheng to be the representative of the poetry club.

This decision made Jiang's mother throw nine cups...

...

vomit!

A strong wind blew, causing the waves to churn. Ye Junsheng's belly also churned. He quickly lay on the side of the boat and vomited again.

He was seasick—

This is really a very uncomfortable thing. Since the morning, he has vomited several times. He has not only not used to it, but he has almost vomited out yellow gallbladder.

This ship is a boat rented by the Jiang family. The bow is under the banner of the Jiang family: Jiangteng Escort Agency!

The Jiang family runs the business of the escort agency, which has developed well in recent years. Within the jurisdiction of Jizhou, 18 branches have been opened, and the general bureau is in Pengcheng County.

Ye Junsheng has only recently learned more about the Jiang family. He had a superficial understanding of the Jiang family. After all, the nerd in his predecessor was only concerned about books.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Ye Junmei quickly handed over a towel.

Ye Junsheng looked pale, took the towel and wiped his mouth clean, and smiled bitterly: "It's okay, I'll get used to it as I vomited."

"Hmph, there is no use for scholars."

It was Jiang Jing'er's voice. She was dressed in men's clothes, and she was so heroic that she made great strides. This girl seemed to never miss any opportunity to ridicule Ye Junsheng.

After leaving a very proud words, she immediately left with her head raised and her chest.

Even if the well-developed chest is stalked hard with a cloth strip, it still shows ups and downs. If it is completely liberated, how big will it be?

This has to be a serious issue.

Ye Junsheng calmed down and said, "I'd better go back to the cabin to rest. At night, the weather will be calm before coming out."

As he said that, his feet staggered back to the cabin room.

Ye Junmei was worried and hurriedly supported her.

When he entered the room, Ye Junsheng fell asleep. He suddenly felt a little regretful and promised Jiang Zhinian to attend this poetry meeting.

He naturally understands what Jiang Zhinian thinks.

Because I understand, I came to participate. But I didn’t expect that I would become seasick. I really hope that these three days will become the past soon.
