Today's Qing'an Mansion is obviously a city that never sleeps. Whether it is pubs, brothels or other shops, they are basically open all night, because the profit from this one night is enough to cover their usual days. In places like pubs, half a day The profit was almost equal to the previous ten days and a half.
Only a solid person like Lao Fang would give himself a holiday when business is at its best. At this moment, he is probably beating his chest with regret while watching the booming business of other candied haws vendors...
After coming out of the poetry meeting, Li Yi thought about it carefully and felt a little regretful.
Isn't it a little too hasty to use a term like "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" that has been passed down through the ages so easily?
Although I also found a jade pendant, the jade pendant can only be exchanged for three hundred taels of silver at most. After all, I seem to have suffered a loss...
Just now, I randomly picked out a moon chanting poem from "Selected Song Ci", and I'm afraid it could still calm Shen Zhao. In the final analysis, I was still too impulsive.
However, it was too late to regret it now. I stopped thinking about it. I picked up my mood, picked a pawn shop that looked more formal, and walked in.
Half an hour later, Li Yi and Liu Ruyi walked out of the pawn shop.
There is no treacherous businessman. The man surnamed Shen said that this jade pendant was worth at least three hundred taels of silver. The sinister owner of the pawn shop only offered one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and cut it off by more than half. Li Yi spent a quarter of an hour using it. Time passed with him until he reached two hundred taels, and he would not let go even if he died.
Finally, when Liu Ruyi frowned and her jade hand had already touched the hilt of the sword, Li Yi saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly raised Shen Zhao's name.
Otherwise, the pawnshop owner will be in bad luck tonight.
It has to be said that the name Shen Zhao, Mr. Shen, is still very useful. Since it is the portable jade pendant of the second talented man in Qing'an Mansion, the price is naturally higher. After the pawn shop owner confirmed it, he finally increased the price to three hundred taels.
Before leaving, he deliberately stuffed another ten taels of silver into Li Yi's hand and expressed eagerly that if he could get Yang Yanzhou's jade pendant next time, he would be willing to pay twice the price. If Li Yi was not satisfied , the price can still be discussed...
Li Yi could probably guess the intention of the pawnshop owner. There must be many women who admire such talented people in Qing'an Prefecture. Among them, there must be many wealthy ladies who are not short of money. They buy them for three hundred taels and then resell them. I'm afraid they can still make a lot of money.
This made Li Yi couldn't help but sigh, in this world, talented people are really popular!
One day he becomes famous and sells signed portraits, worn socks, unwashed underwear, etc., I'm afraid he can make a small fortune...
By the way, I seem to have forgotten to take away the song "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" that I just wrote. I really shouldn't have. After all, it is the first version of the manuscript. After he becomes famous, he will not be able to sell it for a thousand or eight hundred taels of silver. ...Is it still too late to go back and get it now?
As soon as he thought of those women who were like wolves and tigers, Li Yi immediately gave up the idea.
Li Yi, who was strolling in the bustling market with Liu Ruyi with three hundred taels of silver notes in his arms, naturally didn't know that the entire Jinxiu Garden had become completely boiling because of the song "Shui Tiao Ge Tou".
Several old men with white hair and beards gathered around a table, staring intently at the rice paper on the table.
Zeng Zuimo stood far away, wanting to snatch back the original manuscript of "Shui Tiao Ge Tou", but when he thought that the old men in front of him were all famous figures in the literary world and had extraordinary status, he still resisted this idea.
"As a scholar, my handwriting is so sloppy, it's really insulting to my elegance!" An old man burst into anger and spoke angrily, making all the talented people around him look at each other, but they didn't dare to say a word.
Although the old man has a bad temper, the identity of the other party is so obvious that even the prefect here does not dare to say anything.
Master Lao Xuezheng had been an official for many years, and he had many talents all over the world, including many high-ranking officials. Magistrate Dong was also a disciple of Lao Xuezheng back then. Now when he meets him, he must respectfully address him as "teacher".
After venting, the old man looked at the paper again, but this time, his cloudy old eyes burst into light. After a long time, he sighed and said: "What a beautiful poem..." People have joys and sorrows.
, the moon waxes and wanes... I hope that people will live forever, and we can share the beauty of the moon thousands of miles away. If I write Mid-Autumn Festival poems to this extent, I am afraid that there will be no second person in the entire Jingguo..."
"I'm afraid this person's attainments in poetry have reached an unfathomable level. I heard that the "Magpie Bridge Immortal" written on Chinese Valentine's Day was also written by him." Another old man beside him withdrew his gaze and sighed as well: "
One is childlike and gentle, the other is bold and broad-minded, magnificent... It is hard to imagine that these two lyrics with completely different styles were written by the same person."
"After today, whenever I, a student of Jingguo, drink wine under the moonlight, I will definitely think of "raising a glass to invite the bright moon, and making three shadows of each other". During the Chinese Valentine's Day and Mid-Autumn Festival, I will never forget "Magpie Bridge Immortal" and "Shui Tiao Ge Tou". I do.
I feel that if he is allowed to write another Shangyuan poem, there may be no need to hold the next few poetry gatherings!"
"In terms of poetry alone, even if he is called the most talented person in Jingguo, not many people would object."
The old scholar nodded and agreed to this, but the next moment he raised his eyebrows and cursed with a bit of hatred: "This guy has never thought about practicing calligraphy!"
…
…
The talented people around him stood respectfully aside, and couldn't help but feel frightened when they heard the comments made by the old scholar and several celebrities about Li Yi.
"The most talented scholar in Jingguo..." There has never been a first-class scholar in literature since ancient times. When poetry talent reaches a certain level, it is difficult to distinguish between superior and inferior poets. No one has ever been so praised by them.
The Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival has attracted much attention from literati and students in Qing'an Prefecture, and any news will spread quickly.
Not long after, a piece of paper floated out of Jinxiu Garden like flying snow. There were good people, and even the comments of the old scholar and others on the poem were handed over without deletion at all, including several people's comments on the poem.
The praise of Li Yi as "the most talented person in Jingguo" quickly spread throughout the city...
In a very short period of time, the tunes of Shui Tiao Ge Tou were heard in various brothels. Li Yi from "Magpie Bridge Immortal" appeared at the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Festival. He became a beauty in anger and brazenly accepted the Qing'an mansion.
The literary battle between the second talented scholar Shen Zhao and his song "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" astounded the audience and made Shen Zhao tear up his poem twice...
When all the literati and students heard such stories, they felt as if they were actually there, and their hearts were full of passion and anger. They only regretted that they were not there to watch. And countless women in the boudoir, when they heard their maids recounting the news they heard from outside,
There is also a stream of light shining in the beautiful eyes, with endless splendor.
At this time, Li Yi, who had no idea about this, was still wandering on the streets.
However, unlike before, at this moment, he already had a lot more things in the baggage on his back.
Purses, sachets, bracelets, hairpins, rouge and gouache...
Last time Ruyi gave him a piece of clothing sewn by herself, and the courtesy was reciprocated. Now that Li Yi's wallet is bulging again, he naturally won't be stingy in this regard.
However, if I bought it for Ruyi, Xiaohuan would definitely want a share, otherwise the little maid would definitely be sad even though she didn’t say it with her mouth. I bought it for both of them, so I couldn’t leave Liu Ruyi behind and treat Miss Liu Er differently.
, the consequences are very serious...
Although this seems to be a lack of sincerity, but...at worst, I can give Ruyi another gift separately in the future.
Watching Li Yi walk into a jewelry store again, Liu Ruyi curled up her lips and was about to follow her in when her footsteps suddenly stopped and she looked at the two scholars walking past her on the street.
""Magpie Bridge Immortal"... "Shui Tiao Ge Tou", Master Xuezheng... Then Li Yi... the most talented person in Jingguo..."
After getting this information from the conversation between the two, Liu Ruyi frowned with her beautiful brows, and looked at the back of the shop owner who was bargaining with the shop owner with confusion and surprise...
