Chapter 1154: Uncle Xi

"Ten years? After such a long time, my child can even take the exam." Liu Wenqing was very frustrated. He also thought that he would start studying hard now and go home as a scholar after finishing the exam.

Liu Wenqing saw what he was thinking and said rudely: "Stop dreaming. With your little knowledge, you can write a few sad and sad articles. If you want to write articles that are useful to the country, you can't say more." It will take more than five years of hard work.

Liu Wenqing's words were very rude, but they were true. After speaking, Liu Wenqing ignored the uncomfortable Liu Wenqing, got on the Yan family's carriage, and asked Yan Xiaowu in a low voice: "Brother Yan, how long will it take for the Tong family's matter to be settled in the capital? When will your lord arrive?"

Liu Wenqing knew that many people were looking at the Tong family's property and that his own family was in decline. If he didn't keep a close eye on the Tong family and make a move as early as possible, even if he flattered Yan Xiaowu, he wouldn't be able to buy much of the property back.

Liu Wenqing did not hide it at all, and shared all his worries with the Liu family's difficulties.

Yan Xiaowu is not a child, he is a bit naive, so Liu Wenqing always speaks directly to him, without hiding anything. Old Master Yan San also did not allow him to hide or plot against Yan Xiaowu, otherwise the Liu family would die miserably.

Liu Wenqing hurriedly got on the carriage. When Yan Xiaowu saw him coming up, he waited for him to sit firmly and said: "Come on, the Tong family's case is a big one. The capital will send two adults over, one from Dali Temple and one from the household." From the Ministry of Finance. The higher-ups are urgent and will let the adults from the Ministry of Household Affairs deal with a batch of Tong family's properties first, and then you, the Liu family, can take action."

but

"There is a shortage of money in the capital, and the adults from the Ministry of Revenue have come in person. The Tong family's property will not be sold at a low price, but the price will be increased, and the one with the highest price will get it." Yan Xiaowu looked at Liu Wenqing with some sympathy.

He knew that the Liu family had no money, and Qiu Hao had borrowed the more than 10,000 taels of silver, but it was almost impossible to **** the Tong family's property from a wealthy family with more than 10,000 taels. Now that the Ministry of Household Affairs has raised the price of the Tong family's property again, more than ten thousand taels can't buy anything.

After hearing this, Liu Wenqing frowned and his face became dark... Not that money can buy much property, but secondly, Liu Wenqing was worried that his family would anger aristocratic families and official families by robbing Tong's family of property.

The Liu family cannot afford to offend these people. It seems that they have to think again about buying the Tong family's property.

Liu Wenqing saw that he looked bad and wanted to say a few words of comfort, but Liu Wenqing glared at him: "Don't bother me."

Liu Wenqing was startled and did not dare to speak anymore.

More than a quarter of an hour later, Liu Wenqing suddenly asked Yan Xiaowu: "Brother Yan, can you do me a favor?"

Yan Xiaowu frowned and felt a little embarrassed, but still said: "You tell me what you are doing first, and I will think about it before helping."

Yan Xiaowu is just kind-hearted, but he is not really stupid. He knows that there are some things that he cannot help.

Liu Wenqing smiled and said: "I heard that there are some wealthy families in the city who want to buy the Tong family's property, but they have some problems with their cash flow. They want to sell some shops and farms to raise money. Although those shops and farms are not better than the Tong family's, they are my family's. I can't buy it. I'm thinking that I'll treat the young masters from those families to a meal some other day, and ask Brother Yan to accompany me, to help with the situation, and successfully win the farms and shops they want to sell."

Although it is a pity that his family cannot buy back the property that was plotted by the Tong family this time, Liu Wenqing is a person who is good at adapting. Since he can't steal it from others, he will buy it in a roundabout way. No matter what, he must take advantage of this opportunity to get some property for his family, so that it can be done easily. Business makes a living.

After hearing this, Yan Xiaowu's eyes lit up and he admired Liu Wenqing.

This brain is really alive. When he saw that the way forward was blocked, he immediately thought of a new way out: "Okay, I promise you, you can tell me one day in advance when the banquet will be held."

Liu Wenqing was very happy after hearing this and solemnly bowed to Yan Xiaowu: "Thank you so much, Brother Yan."

Yan Xiaowu smiled and shook his head: "Brother Liu, you're too polite. Since we are friends, we shouldn't pay attention to trivial matters." Grandpa said that he should have more contact with people in various professions. It will be beneficial to him as an official in the future, and he will follow him. Befriend Liu Wenqing, otherwise he could let the shadow guards beat Liu Wenqing away.

Liu Wenqing was a quick worker. He started arranging the banquet on the same day and worked for three days in a row before finally getting it done.

He relied on Yan Xiaowu's relationship to buy three Zhuangzi and four shops at relatively low prices.

One of the small Zhuangzi and a shop was bought for Liu Wenqing. With the Zhuangzi, Liu Wenqing's family had no worries about food and clothing. The shop was a bookstore that sold pens, inks, paper, inkstones and enlightenment books, which was suitable for Liu Wenqing, a weak scholar.

The others belong to Liu Wenqing's family, and one of them is a wine shop. When Mr. Liu learned that Liu Wenqing had bought a wine shop, he was so excited that he burst into tears. His family could open a wine shop and sell wine again.

The Liu family has the ancestral craft of brewing wine, but due to the poisonous nature of the Tong family, they not only squeezed out the Liu family's wine shop, but also tried to steal the Liu family's brewing recipes. Mr. Liu Da was so desperate that he had no recipe for making wine. He had not used the ancestral recipe to make wine in the past decades, so he kept the recipe.

Now that the Tong family has been defeated, the familys brewing recipes can be brought to light, and the Liu family can finally make wine and sell it again.

The Liu family were very happy, but Old Mrs. Liu Er was dissatisfied and scolded Old Mrs. Liu at home. But just because of the scolding at home, he did not dare to trouble Old Mrs. Liu.

When the Liu family bought a shop and a farm, Gu Jinan and his team's mule cart also arrived in He'an Prefecture, which caused a sensation in the entire city.

Before their mule cart team entered the city, they saw a large group of people watching the excitement blocking the city gate. There was also a group of happy masters tied with red cloth waiting. After seeing their mule cart, they immediately beat gongs, drums and trumpets. The one who pulled the string started to play.

When Gu Jinan and the others heard this burst of joy, their faces turned green. When they heard Chen's high-pitched and excited voice, they were immediately speechless.

As expected, it was Chen who recruited her. No one except her could do such a thing.

Mrs. Chen was very happy because after learning that they were back today, she went to invite Master Xile yesterday and was waiting at the city gate early this morning.

As for the people who were watching the excitement, after the good news about Gu Jinan and his colleagues being successful scholars was sent to He'an Mansion, the Chen family began to spread the word throughout the city and spread the word so that everyone in the city knew about it, so everyone came to watch the excitement. of.

I heard that Chief Gu is our second young San Yuan Lang in Jianghuai, and he is really promising. Sister-in-law, your familys ancestral graves are filled with smoke.

Mrs. Chen was very proud after hearing this. She held several tied red silk ribbons in her hands and raised her chin. The four nephews are extremely talented, one of them passed the test, they are all gods and immortals."

"Hey, here it comes, I won't tell you anymore, I have to hang red silk flowers for my four nephews." Mrs. Chen rushed straight to the mule team. The driver was afraid of hurting her and immediately stop.

Gu Dexing bravely got out of the car first, but before he could stand still, Mr. Chen hung a red silk flower on his head.

Gu Dexing's expression was hard to describe. The second person who got off the mule cart, Gu Jinan, also had a bad expression. He's here again. Why is he here again? Can't he just hang up?

However, Chen told Qi Kangming, who was following him out of the car, good news: "Brother An, Brother Ming, Brother Ping, his wife has given birth, and you two are now uncles."
