In the second small pavilion, there is only a large table placed in the center. Directly opposite Shen Tang, a woman is looking at Shen Tang with some interest.
"Miss Muyu?" Shen Tang paused, the shock on his face difficult to conceal, "Why are you here?"
Yes, the woman sitting upright at the moment is none other than Shao Muyu. And behind her, the little maid Yun'er is also covering her mouth and snickering.
"What? You can come to this cultural gathering," Shen Tang asked in astonishment.
Shao Muyu smiled softly, "What? Why can't the little girl come to this cultural gathering?"
Shen Tang waved his hand, thinking of the relationship between Shao Muyu and Wei Xun, it was not surprising that she appeared here. Moreover, this woman is like Liu Xiangling, who is extremely enthusiastic about this kind of literary society. Shao Muyu is here. , which is considered normal.
"I don't know what kind of masterpiece Mr. Shen has prepared today. How about letting the little girl take a look first?" Shao Muyu said leisurely.
Shen Tang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I was forced to come here by the county magistrate. There is no great work. Shanyin has a profound literary charm, so I just came here to join in the fun and watch the fun. How can I show my shame in front of the young lady. "
Shao Muyu smiled softly and did not comment on Shen Tang's words, but did not ask further questions.
Afterwards, the two chatted casually. Shao Muyu controlled the Shao family's business. Although he was young, he had traveled all over the country for many years and was well-informed. Although Shen Tang was unfamiliar with the Song Dynasty, he was also familiar with modern and ancient times, and even more They have thoughts and memories that are far superior to this era. When talking about it, these two people are quite compatible, and they even feel like they have met at such a late age.
"I heard that the Jingsi Garden covers an area of hundreds of acres, and there are hundreds of flowers blooming in it. It is really a good place. However, if we can buy it, it will be a good business." Speaking of the Jingsi Garden at the foot of Xingkong Mountain, I thought Looking at the petals that would soon fall into mud, Shen Tang couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
However, when Shen Tang spoke, Shao Muyu's eyes on the opposite side were a bit strange, and the maid Yun'er on the side even snickered.
Just when Shen Tang was secretly wondering, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Shen Tang, no wonder you can cooperate with me, Mu Yu's niece, but you don't know that just a few days ago, the owner of the Jingsi Garden had It’s become a twilight whisper…”
"Meet the adults!"
"I've met my uncle!"
Shen Tang and Shao Muyu stood up and saluted Wei Xun who stepped inside.
Several people sat down again, and Shen Tang just asked, "The Jingsi Garden has actually been bought by Miss Mu Yu?"
Shao Muyu smiled faintly, "Since we are cooperating with Mr. Shen, we will have to come to Shanyin often in the future. Therefore, buying it can be regarded as a place to stay. It is only tens of thousands of silver, and it can be used for some purposes, so it is cheap. "
The indifferent words made Shen Tang speechless. Even Wei Xun smiled bitterly. Tens of thousands of taels of silver, such a huge fortune, could be labeled as "just" and "cheap". Only with this wealth Shao Mu said.
"As expected of the Shao family, a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River. In the past few years, my niece has been in charge of the business. Your Shao family actually has the intention to move to a higher level. I'm afraid that in a few years, my brother Tongguang will be able to have a grandson." Wei Xun Han smiled and said to Shao Muyu.
"Uncle, thank you!" Shao Muyu responded calmly and poured tea for Wei Xun. However, there was no hint of coyness on her face. It was obvious that she was not only extremely proud of her business operations, but also She is extremely confident, which is really rare to find in a woman.
A few people chatted for a few words, and then Wei Xun said: "My niece, please sit here and I will lead Shen Tang to meet others."
Afterwards, the two stood up. Shen Tang took half a step forward to open the gauze curtain for Wei Xun. Yuan Chen took a slower step and fell beside Wei Xun. The three of them arrived at the first small pavilion again.
At this moment, there were seven or eight people in the small pavilion. When they saw Wei Xun walking out, they hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"You don't need to be polite. Today, this county has to rely on you..." Wei Xun responded politely, and then introduced each of them to Shen Tang.
"Shen Tang, this one is Lin Rui, whose song "Wang Jiangnan" shocked everyone the year before last. This one is Yu Fang, who is good at writing poems about the four seasons. This one can be regarded as a master of landscape..."
Wei Xun introduced Shen Tang one by one. Of course, Shen Tang had never read the amazing masterpieces he talked about. Moreover, Wei Xun's words could not be taken as true. Most of them were words of praise. After all, the real master, Wei How could I be treated like this?
After the introduction, Wei Xun just pointed at Shen Tang and said calmly: "His name is Shen Tang. From now on, you and I can treat each other well..."
The introduction to Shen Tang was the simplest, and there was no mention of Shen Tang’s masterpieces. However, the eyes of everyone looking at Shen Tang still became a bit unkind. In any case, the county magistrate’s attitude towards Shen Tang This is very different from his attitude towards everyone. This is an obvious thing. Scholars look down on each other. Looking at Shen Tang’s appearance, he is just not as good as a weak crown. He has never heard of this title. How can everyone be convinced? ?
"Everyone, come with me to pay a visit to Master Zhizhou!"
Naturally, Wei Xun didn't bother to pay attention to everyone's thoughts. He gave a light drink and stepped towards the bow of the ship. Everyone calmed down their thoughts for the time being and hurriedly followed.
When everyone came to the bow of the boat, they saw that on other painted boats, just like them, seven or eight scholars were led by their respective magistrates to stand on the bow, all looking at the largest painted boat.
"I've met Lord Zhizhou! I've met all the Wenzongs!"
As an old man in a purple shirt led several men with either solemn or kind expressions to appear from the boat, everyone on each boat hurriedly saluted.
"Shao Yi's great achievements in his life have brought about a hundred years of prosperity!" The purple-shirted old man said quietly, "The name of our Shaoxing Prefecture comes from this. Today, the eight counties of Shaoxing are prosperous, and the name of Wenzong is even more evident. This article The purpose of this meeting is to date a few old friends and see the style of my Shaoxing Qilinzi. Therefore, you can enjoy the lake tour. If you are thoughtful and get a beautiful piece, I will definitely give you a heavy reward..."
After explaining, the purple-shirted Zhizhou entered the painting boat with several other people while chatting and laughing, while on the other painting boats, especially the young scholars, they were either gearing up or lowering their heads in meditation, wanting to Write a stunning poem to attract the appreciation of the people in Zhizhou.
Although Master Zhizhou said it briskly, everyone had already received instructions from their respective county magistrates, and with the temptation of Master Zhizhou's heavy rewards and even appreciation, who would go to the lake at this time?
"Hmph! I, Kuaiji, are tied with you, Shanyin, and should be the best among the eight counties. But your Shanyin is always at the bottom, which really makes me, Kuaiji, ashamed."
A voice suddenly came from a painted boat. Shen Tang looked at it. It was on the other side of the painted boat where Zhizhou was, with the word "Kuiji" engraved on it.
