Chapter 998 Worse than a beast
Lu Bai was shocked and asked: "What kind of work can earn three hundred and ten taels? Girl, you..."
Are you not crazy?
Gu Jinli: Of course its a good job.
Lu Bai: "What a good job? You can make too much money."
Even if you go to rob, you won't be able to rob more than 300 taels in one go.
Thinking of this, Lu Bai said again: "I, I won't do anything that violates the criminal law. I still want to take the imperial examination."
Lu Bai had a righteous look on his face, but Gu Jinli sneered: "I also abide by the law, okay?"
Then he said disgustedly: "If you want to take the imperial examination, you are rushing to become an official. But look at you like this. You will cry when something happens. How can you be an official? If you are framed by an assistant officer after taking office, What's wrong, do you only cry?"
Lu Bai's face turned red when he was told that. He lowered his head. He was silent for a while and then said: "Now that you are an official and have an official seal, it will be easier to deal with troubles."
Gu Jinli chuckled and said ruthlessly: "Do you think being an official means using an official seal to order others to do things? If you think being an official is that easy, then you might as well go home and feed the pigs."
The pigs will not plot against you, so you can be a swineherd with peace of mind.
After hearing this, Lu Bai wanted to cry even more. He felt that he was extremely wronged. He worked so hard to take the imperial examination, but this female benefactor actually asked him to go back and feed the pigs?
He was chased and bitten by pigs when he was a child, and he was scared to death of such things.
There were people coming and going here, and Gu Jinli couldn't stand here and talk too much, so he followed Qin Sanlang into the mule cart and said to Lu Bai: "You can be the front carriage, and we will go to Futai Tower to talk things over."
"Huh?" Lu Bai was stunned, looked at Er Qing who was driving, and blushed: "This is not good, there are differences between men and women."
Gu Jinli: "Then just run behind the mule cart. There is no place for you in the carriage."
Lu Bai felt aggrieved again, but he did not dare to resist, so he could only nod in agreement and follow the mule cart obediently.
But before the mule cart started moving, Yao Youqian rushed out from the silver building opposite and shouted: "Lu Bai, where do you want to go? Don't you want to work to make money? You just studied for two days and you want to go back to before." Isnt that trash?
Yao Youqian found a new job. He worked as a waiter in the silver building opposite during the day and poured night incense at dawn.
When Lu Bai saw Yao Youqian, he seemed to have seen a savior. He immediately told him the money-making job Gu Jinli mentioned, and finally asked: "Do you think this job is too good to do?"
The implication is to ask Yao if you have money, do you think they look like liars? Is it okay if I go with them?
Yao Youqian was shocked. He looked at the mule cart, bowed and asked, "May I ask these two distinguished guests, what kind of work can earn more than three hundred taels? We are all poor, and we can't stand your tricks." "
Gu Jinli said: "Even if I can make so much money, and three hundred taels of it are mine, even if I play tricks on you, I won't play tricks on myself. If you want to do this business, come to the private room on the third floor of Futai Building. If you don't want to Forget it, I can do it myself, its just a little more troublesome.
After saying that, he asked Erqing to drive away in the mule cart.
Seeing this, Yao Youqian gritted his teeth and rushed back to the Silver Building to apologize. He came out and said to Lu Bai, "Let's go to Futai Building. It's ten taels of silver, but it's a lot. You won't suffer any loss if you go there."
They were so poor that they didnt even have a tael of silver with them, so why were they afraid that those two men wouldnt rob them?
Speaking of which, Lu Bai and Yao Youqian were quite pitiful. Although they had passed the Tongsheng examination, their rankings were not at the top, and their family background was not good, so the wealthy households in the city did not send them any money.
Some people will give them some gifts when they return to Yujiang County, but Lu Bai can't wait until he returns to his hometown, and he will need money in these two days.
Lu Bai was a man of few opinions. Hearing this, he nodded and followed Yao Youqian to Futai Building.
On the way, he told Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang about rescuing him from the siege.
With a snap, Yao Youqian slapped Lu Bai on the head and cursed: "You idiot, why didn't you tell me the reason quickly? Since others have helped you, you should go with them. It's impossible for people who encounter injustice on the road to play tricks on you. Walk, walk, hurry up, and make amends to the two benefactors when you get there." Lu Bai could only promise.
The two of them ran for more than a quarter of an hour before arriving at Futai Tower. Shopkeeper Hu had already heard from Qin Sanlang. When he saw them, he said, "Yao Tongsheng, please come with me."
Yao Youqian and Gu Jinan had been to Futai Building before. Shopkeeper Hu recognized him and took them directly to the private room on the third floor.
Yao Youqian apologized as soon as he entered the private room: "Two benefactors, I really couldn't apologize before. I hesitated because I was afraid of being deceived."
Gu Jinli: "No need to say more about these, let's get down to business."
She pointed to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table and said: "This money-making job is to sell stories. I dictate them, and Lu Tongsheng writes down what I say. Be sure to write vividly and wonderfully, and then take the written stories to Shenghe Building." Sell it, and after we get the money, well split the money.
Writing ancient prose is too tiring. She just wants to make money and doesnt want to do too much work.
After hearing this, Lu Bai became more energetic: "So this is such a job, then this job is really profitable."
He has been working in Shenghe Building for two days and knows how profitable Shenghe Building is. In order to get exclusive stories, Mr. Ke will also buy stories from others at high prices.
But there is one requirement, that is, the story must be **** and not dull. It is better to be real people and true stories, and the fictional ones must be reduced in price.
Lets get started. Gu Jinli was talking about the Ge family.
The Ge family wanted to squeeze Gu Jinan out of the imperial examination. The Ge family who had used the old Gu family's affairs to harm Gu Jinan's reputation were also the family of Young Master Ge who had previously bullied Lu Bai in Shenghe Building.
Mr. Ge failed to pass the Tongsheng examination, and he was mentioned by storytellers because of the unfilial behavior of several members of his family. His life has been very difficult recently.
But he doesnt want to repent and still dares to commit crimes, so let him die.
The story of the Ge family told by Gu Jinli is exactly the follow-up of several members of the Ge family stealing money from the public company and making old Mr. Ge angry.
The members of the Ge family really wanted to divide the family property. They went so far as to drug him while he was sick in bed, making his condition worse. If he didn't get treatment quickly, he would be poisoned within two months. die.
What's even more outrageous is that the Ge family also attacked Mr. Ge's younger sister.
This little aunt of the Ge family married in Linhe Mansion. Since she was brought up by Mrs. Ge, she respects Mrs. Ge like her own father. He had a very hot temper. If Mrs. Ge passed away, given the temperament of the Ge family's little aunt, she would definitely investigate the matter thoroughly. Even if she couldn't find anything, she would blame them for not taking good care of Mrs. Ge and give them a beating.
In order to save trouble, several members of the Ge family conspired to accuse the Ge family's aunt, saying that she had an affair with a poor scholar when she was not married. They wanted to ruin her reputation and have her divorced by her husband's family.
A woman who has been divorced by her husband's family has no right to speak in her natal family. If the Ge family is not happy, they can throw her to a Taoist temple to fend for herself.
"Shameless, extremely shameless!" Lu Bai scolded as he wrote: "How can this Ge family be like this? They are worse than animals!"
Yao Youqian heard this and sneered: "Some people who only know how to read and **** the blood of the whole family are no better than beasts."
After Lu Bai heard this, he immediately shut up and did not dare to speak.
Yao Youqian asked again: "Benefactor, do you have evidence for saying this? If there is no evidence, the Ge family will sue, and Sheng Helou will not dare to tell this story."
