"I was shocked, really shocked! There is nothing like this!"
When Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) came out of his father's room, he started to feel depressed. It turned out that the officials the little emperor granted him didn't count. They were just honorary officials with no real power. The only one who counted was the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs
The manager of the palace is just a personal official of the young emperor, fortunately he is a third-rank official. I don’t know how much his salary is?
I had just returned to the wing to rest for less than half an hour when I heard an announcement from outside that the little emperor had asked his salary to be delivered. It was so easy to say!
Entering the hall, I saw Eunuch Liang of Liang Jiugong who always had a charming smile on his face.
"My father-in-law has been very busy recently."
"There is a mountain of things to do, but I heard that you are here to do things for Mr. Jia. No matter how busy you are, our family still has to come."
"What can you do with just this little money?" Baoyu was almost furious as he turned over the banknotes. There were only four banknotes in total, one for 300 taels, one for 100 taels, one for 60 taels and one for 8.
Two taels of silver, a total of 468 taels of silver, which is the total salary of the imperial guards and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs combined.
It was actually placed on a gold tray with two yellow bags on it. The silver was not as valuable as the tray, so I had to "buy a casket for a pearl."
"Master Xiao Jia, this is different. This is the official silver rewarded by the royal family. It is a supreme gift."
Damn you eunuch, this is like in the future, you just took out a stack of one hundred 50-yuan notes from the bank, and you said these are brand-new banknotes just issued by the People's Bank of China, and you asked someone to exchange them for a stack of one hundred yuan.
It's 100 yuan, can someone else exchange it?
With a joking smile, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) took out a 100-tael banknote from his arms, then picked up the 8-tael banknote from the tray, held it in his hand and said: "Eunuch Liang, here is a banknote
There is an ordinary silver note of 100 taels, and there is a royal silver note of 8 taels, which one do you like?"
"Hahahaha, Mr. Jia is joking. Our family dare not accept this small silver note. According to the rules of the court, the salary rewarded by the emperor for the first time must be as large as your money, Mr. Jia. Only in this way can we keep rising."
"Ah? What do you mean, I can't spend these banknotes and have to keep them?" This is simply unbelievable to Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi), just like going to the bank to take out tens of thousands of new banknotes and hiding them under the bed in later generations.
almost.
Forget it, don't worry about it, it's not embarrassing enough!
Besides, I’m really not short of money now!
After the screen went to the left and right, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) asked in a low voice: "Tell me, what message did the young master ask the father-in-law to bring to me?"
"My master told our family to bring the following words to our family: Obai is the number one warrior in Manchuria. He is extremely powerful and cunning. If Lord Jia finds it difficult, my master has a way to end the competition. It will take a long time. No.
In a hurry."
This is real concern. But I have to be anxious. Wait two years for the emperor to really put Ao Bai in prison and then kill him. In this way, our sister Lin will not have a biological grandfather.
"My father-in-law went back and reported to the young master that the lion cage was ready, so we can rest assured about catching the lion."
"Master Xiao Jia is extremely ambitious and talented. He will definitely become a great minister of the Qing Dynasty. He is also kind-hearted and compassionate, so he will become a great weapon... But the little master has been patient for a long time..."
It seems that the little emperor has reached the point where he can't bear it anymore. I don't know how this Obai became an official. It's quite acceptable to have the new master want to kill him and then kill him.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) simply took out a Xiaolanghao pen, wrote a series of numbers and handed it to Eunuch Liang. This was a new encryption method. Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) believed in his master, Mr. Qi Qiang of the "Tianwei Camp"
I will definitely teach the little emperor without any secret.
Sure enough, Eunuch Liang brought this ghost-painted peach charm into the palace. After the young emperor saw it, he quickly translated it.
"It is easy to kill the enemy, difficult to conquer the enemy, and even harder to make the enemy work for me, but we must do it even if it is difficult."
After reading it, the little emperor remained silent and burned the ghost-painted peach charm, "Let's see how you tame the lion... To convey my will, ministers will use this method to present secret books in the future. They will choose the book themselves and then
Let me know."
everything's ready.
The next day, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) led his senior brothers, more than a dozen servants and children, and dozens of strong horses, and drove to the competition field in a mighty manner.
This time, the streets were deserted by thousands of people. Jiaochangkou was surrounded by ten floors inside and ten floors outside.
The flags were fluttering, and the royal guards lined up. This time it was much more elegant than the last time the "little devil" fought against the "big devil" of Russia. The little emperor, along with all the princes, nobles, and ministers of the court, personally came to the scene to serve as the referee.
There was only sparse applause when Obai entered the entrance of the arena. When Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) drove in mightily, the whole venue was boiling with applause and shouts intertwined together. Some people even brought gongs and drums to the scene for a fierce burst.
knock.
"It seems that the people sympathize with the weak. At the same time, it also shows that Mr. Obai has become an official to the point that all the people hate him... If you don't make decisions for the people when you are an official, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes... Look at our sister Lin's own grandfather being an official.
When people in Germany feel like dogs are no longer welcome...it's time to change..."
I waved greetings all the way and entered the field slowly. When I saw Obai wearing a bunt, he looked like he was not as tall as the Russian "Big Devil" Ivanov, but his muscles really looked like the later Hollywood actor "The Rock"
Johnson just moved his arms slightly, and the bulging muscles really rolled like a big mouse.
"What a strong body, he deserves to be the first warrior in Manchuria!" Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) praised, which triggered thunderous applause from the entire arena.
"Jia boy, are you an opera singer?"
"Master Taifu, before the official competition, I would like to tell you a story: In a cold winter, a little bird was shivering with cold and almost freezing to death. It flew and flew with all its strength until it reached a
On the hillside, I was looking for a warm place. At this time, a cow came over and pooped on it. This time, the bird finally warmed up and came to life. The bird began to chirp and sing; when I heard the bird's
During the singing, a cat came over and took the bird into its mouth without hesitation... The story is over." Baoyu finished the story regardless.
"What's the matter with birds and cats? I don't understand!"
"What I want to express is that the person who throws shit on you is not necessarily a bad person, and the person who listens to your singing is not necessarily your friend... Haha, Mr. Taifu, today we are not going to compete in a wrestling match. That is too vulgar. Today we will
To see who has greater strength, now I have prepared a copper ball. The copper ball is divided into two halves. Now I put it together. As long as the adults can separate it, you win. How about that."
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was operating while talking, and soon a sphere that would be used by later generations of scientists to test atmospheric pressure was installed.
Oboi walked around Baoyu to watch him operate, while squeezing the knuckles until Baoyu finished the operation, then he went up to lift the copper ball, grabbed the handles on both sides, and used a little strength at first, but the copper ball
The ball didn't move at all; after applying another three points of strength, it still didn't move... Finally, when I applied twelve more points of strength, my whole face turned red from holding it in, but the copper ball still didn't move at all.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) sneered from the side, unless you can lift the entire earth!
He put down the copper ball angrily, "Boy, have you cast a magic spell?"
"This is science and technology, not magic."
"Then... come here, kid!"
"Master Tutor, this is a competition, but you have a high position, so I'm worried..."
"Boy, don't worry, a real man will keep his promise. If he loses, he will become a small city gate official without any complaints."
Okay, just wait for his words!
"In order to convince you of your defeat, I have brought eighteen horses with the strongest legs to give you another performance."
The senior brother and the servants arranged nine horses on each side according to the original instructions, tied the traction ropes to the handles of the copper ball, and then drove the horses, but no matter how hard they whipped and drove, the copper ball remained motionless.
The whole arena was silent.
Baoyu walked over and took off the copper ball, and said to Obai: "Sir, for the sake of fairness, please check it again, and I will show you my peerless magic skill later."
Oboi once again tried his best to suck the milk, but it was still in vain.
Angrily, he handed the copper ball to Baoyu. Baoyu showed it to everyone like a magician in later generations. While secretly twisting the valve, the air inside escaped. Then he spread his legs apart and held the copper ball high.
Qiu, made the style perfect, shouted "Open!"
The bronze ball opened in response, and Baoyu raised the two halves of the bronze ball high. The whole arena immediately burst into applause and cheers.
This is the power of science!
At this time, Obai's entire face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
(Whether Ao Bai will become a small city gate official, and what mischief he will do, please read the 10-hour Chapter 19 for analysis.)
