As for why he gave Xu Qiusheng ten taels of silver and only gave Wen Xingbo five taels of silver?
Naturally, this was something he had considered. Xu Qiusheng had just won the exam, while Wen Xingbo had failed the exam. Scholars and scholars still had to be distinguished.
After all, their status is different. If the prices of Juren and Xiucai are set at the same price, Juren will certainly not be happy.
Furthermore, the people who won the lottery were obviously not short of money. Trying to get them to start writing for five taels of silver was tantamount to wishful thinking. However, Xu Qiusheng's bet was still in his hands, and there was no room for his willingness.
"oh?"
Sure enough, after hearing this, Wen Xingbo was very excited. He thought that he could get five taels of silver as long as he wrote down his reading notes and scientific examination experience.
This was a great temptation for him who came from a poor family.
After all, he had always done things like copying books, but how could he get such a generous reward?
For Wen Xingbo, this is like pie in the sky. This guy Ling Yun can't tell that he is still a warm-hearted person.
Xu Qiusheng, on the other hand, looked displeased and obviously unhappy.
Obviously, these ten taels of silver are not enough for this wealthy man to take the initiative. After all, he is not short of money. He just has no money at the moment.
If he writes for a mere ten taels of silver today, if his friends know about it in the future, so as not to ridicule him, how can he, a face-loving person, do such a thing?
Seeing that he could not be moved by investing ten taels of silver, Ling Yun could only say sincerely, "Brother Xu, I have the right to help this boy. As long as Brother Xu writes it down, the grudge between us will be wiped out. What do you think?"
"puff!"
Xu Qiusheng looked at Ling Yun in astonishment. He could not have imagined that this matter had not been settled before this?
So he spent eight hundred and twenty taels of silver, and in the end he had to do him such a favor. Is this the end of it?
What kind of person is this, and has he planned to do this from the beginning?
It's one thing to cheat him out of money, but in the end you have to ask him to help you with things?
Such a thoughtful person is actually a young boy in his weak years. How can he believe it? It is really terrifying!
How could he meet such a simple-looking devil?
I really didn't have time to check the future before I left home, so I accidentally fell into the other party's trap.
All in all, Xu Qiusheng would not admit that it was his fault. He still felt that it was because he was unlucky and didn't check the day when he went out that he met Ling Yun.
So much so that now, after losing his money, he still has to work hard for him. If he hadn't won the ranking, he would have lost both his life and money this time.
Fortunately, he won the prize, which gave him some comfort.
Seeing that Xu Qiusheng had no intention of speaking, Ling Yun spoke again, "Brother Xu, what do you think?"
"Okay! However, after Xu writes it, you have to return the bet to me."
"OK."
Hearing this, Ling Yun readily agreed to his request.
Seeing Ling Yun nod, Xu Qiusheng was relieved and pulled Wen Xingbo upstairs.
According to his inner thoughts, he wanted to get this done as soon as possible and get the bet, so that he could get rid of Ling Yun, the wolf. Otherwise, he would be staring at him all the time, which would make him panic.
After the two left, Ling Yun paused, looked at the people who had not left the first floor of the inn, and said loudly, "You guys have just discussed what I just discussed with the two seniors. Those who are talented, there are five liang and one person, and those who lift people."
, twelve and one person.”
"coax!"
As soon as these words came out, the remaining people looked at each other, as if thinking about whether Ling Yun's words were reliable.
They had just been cheated out of money by him, but luckily when they paid the money, Ling Yun crossed out their names.
Otherwise, like Xu Qiusheng, it would be truly terrifying and leave an indelible shadow on them.
If you are trading with him, will you be deceived by him until all your bones are left?
None of them dared to imagine such a thing. After all, if they hadn't seen everything that had just happened here, they wouldn't have believed it.
How could there be a young man with such a bottomless city in this world? They couldn't figure out this person at all, so much so that they couldn't avoid him. How could they dare to take the initiative to provoke him?
Furthermore, at such a young age, he is already Jieyuan. Sure enough, a person with such an achievement has a mind as deep as the sea. It is really ridiculous to think that they dare to dream of making a fortune from him!
Seeing their hesitation and worrying that they didn't believe him, Ling Yun had no choice but to continue, "Everyone, I will never lie. We can hand over the money and deliver the goods."
Some of them were excited when they heard that they could make five taels of silver in one hand. After all, some people had lost all their wealth in the bet. Of course, their eyes lit up when they heard that they could earn five taels of silver.
Seeing that they were still considerate, Ling Yun picked up some of the money, shook it, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I have plenty of money. As long as you can write it down, I will keep my word."
"puff!"
This trick is not without loss. Using the money they lost to hire them, they are really cunning and scheming brats, so terrifying!
Ling Yun had finished talking. It was up to them whether they wanted to or not. After saying that, he went upstairs.
Wang Jinghui, who had just entered the room and put all the money on the bed, who had been in a state of ignorance from the beginning, finally couldn't help but look at Ling Yun and asked with a blank look, "Brother Ling, you...you actually made such a big bet with them? Are you not afraid?"
…Hey! It really makes people shudder when they look at it…”
Several people who witnessed the whole process were frightened and horrified.
After Yang Ergou came out, they didn't expect that Ling Yun would bet like this with others. Looking at the silver coins piled up into a small hill, they felt lingering fear in their hearts.
Ling Yun knew what he was worried about, so he patted his shoulder and consoled him, "Brother Wang, please relax. No matter what, Yudi is the winner now."
Although the matter has passed and Ling Yun has become the winner, as his good friend, Wang Jinghui still feels trembling and frightened.
Wang Jinghui, who was belatedly aware of the situation, sighed and said, "Hey! Well, Brother Ling is now a civil servant. It's useless for me to talk too much. It's useless to talk too much."
Ling Yun knew that he was blaming himself for not telling him before. Although there was a reason for the incident, Ling Yun still comforted his friend again and again in the face of his anger.
"Brother Wang, why do my brothers have to say such things? I lied to you before because I really didn't want to worry Brother Wang."
...
Ling Yun said a lot of good things, and then he calmed Wang Jinghui down, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.
Next he looked at Yang Ergou, smiled and congratulated, "Brother Yang, this is yours."
Yang Ergou chuckled and took the silver in his hand, but found that it seemed a bit heavy, so he opened it and saw that there were thirty taels.
Looking at Ling Yun again, he found that he just smiled at him, and he knew that this was an extra gift from Ling Yun.
