Why keep yourself?

Because of Shi Yiwen's rhetoric, Wu Cai, who was suspicious, was lost in his mind. Seeing the disappointment that had passed in Shi Yiwen's eyes, he sat still and suddenly laughed.

"Why keep me?"

After asking back, Wu Cai said again.

"If I say that my Wolong in the world can help Master Shi with such a boastful way, let alone the young master doesn't believe it, I don't even believe it myself. Although I, Wu Cai, have been well-read in poetry since I was a child, because of my limited talent and failed many exams, I could only find a side-minded person and cheated a few taels of silver to make a living. Wu's talent is naturally like Wu's name - no talent!"

Wu Cai said this, which aroused Shi Yiwen's interest. He looked at Wu Cai, who couldn't help but laugh at him, and instead felt a little appreciation for him.

"Why are you here? To be honest, I just feel that I owe you money. Seeing that there is not even a person who can accompany you to talk, drink tea, and play chess, I came here for this."

Shi Yiwen was stunned when he heard this. Is this a reason?

Wu Cai…Your name will be even better.

Talking and drinking tea? It’s better to chat with Xiao Lian, Kou Yun and the others, and drink tea. That’s at least pleasing to the eye, right?

Shi Yiwen's reaction fell into Wu Caihe's eyes, and he subconsciously stroked his beard and said:

"What, Mr. Shi doesn't need it? If you don't need it, then Mr. Wu would have left, but I have been here. Even if I pay back the money I owe you before, we will not owe each other in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yiwen thought this person was quite interesting. He thought about it and then said.

"Since that's the case, I won't let you leave! Let you accompany me! Tell me, how do you want to accompany me?"

Wu Cai laughed.

"Mr. Shi, I haven't finished saying anything yet. It's okay to keep me with you, but when I say it, you have to pay the money if you want me to stay with you!"

Shi Yiwen, who was in the Ming Dynasty, felt that this day was boring, became more and more interesting when he heard it. He felt that this person was a little interesting, so he asked.

"How do you say this?"

Just then, Kou Yun brought the tea over, and Wu Cai picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the tea.

"Yeah, good tea!"

After putting down the teacup, Wu Caicai continued.

"Mr. Shi, I, Wu Cai, have been focusing on the imperial examination for more than 20 years. As for exhausting my family's resources and making my family poor and helpless, after thinking about it, I had to make up my mind and change my courses. I came to the mansion to be a helper and earn a few taels of silver to survive. However, although there are many wealthy families in Nanjing, I don't know anyone. After thinking about it, I have only met Mr. Shi for a few years. Hahaha, I just said I would come to accompany you and return your money to you. That's all fake. You really want to keep me, chat with me, drink tea, and I want to support my family, of course I need silver!"

When Kou Yun, who was standing aside, raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, he couldn't help but hum. Although the Shi family had no rules, he still had to abide by the rules in front of outsiders.

After staring at him for a while, Shi Yiwen pondered for a moment.

"Well, talking about it, chatting with me and having tea is also a very important seat. I just don't know how much you want to pay for a year?"

Wu Cai said unreasonably.

"I think of me, Wu Cai, although I claim to be without talent, I have studied poetry and books since I was a child. Although I dare not say that I know astronomy and geography, I have a little understanding of medicine, fortune-telling, astrology, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I am just not well aware of the imperial examinations, so I live here. I am not a greedy person, five hundred taels a year is enough!"

"Hmph, five hundred taels a year, do you think you are the courtesan on the Qinhuai River?"

Kou Yun, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but speak sarcastically. Wu Cai didn't care about her sarcasm, raised his eyes and smiled.

"The courtesan sells five hundred taels in one night, and it is sold for a while. Wu sold for five hundred taels in one year, but it is not much."

have to!

It is indeed rare for people with such thick skin to be seen.

"Yun'er, don't be rude!"

Shi Yiwen then laughed.

"As far as I know, even if a scholar takes the imperial examination and passes the imperial examination and passes the imperial examination, and the magistrate of any place, his annual salary is only a few dozen taels of silver. Although the amount you want is not too much, it is worth the magistrate's salary for ten years!"

"Since you are a magistrate, how can you rely solely on your salary? The magistrate can scrape the land, but you can only scrape the young master! But scraping the young master can't be done, so that you can only ask you for more rewards, so that you can save Wu from doing anything randomly in the future. Do you think this is the reason?"

Wu Cai laughed.

"If we can't agree on this, then I'll say goodbye!"

Shi Yiwen, who looked at him silently, knew that Wu Cai would not leave, smiled.

"Wu Cai, since you have said this, I have to say a few words. What about the five hundred taels of silver? It's not much, but since you said you're here to chat with me and have tea, I have to think it's worth it, right?"

Shi Yiwen, who was bored, accompanied Wu Cai to talk nonsense here, would have a wave of waves in his heart.

This Wu Cai is too funny!

Well, Shi Yiwen has to admit that after traveling through time, he looked very young, and he did cheat him once last time. After meeting again, he acted like a harmless person. It is reasonable to be mistaken for being a young man who is easily deceived and uninformed.

But... this guy's routine is too low-level.

Just have fun, just have fun when you have nothing to do!

Shi Yiwen, who was bored in his spare time, did not expose him. After all, the days passed by were indeed a bit boring, and that was good. It was just right to play with him and pass the time.

Seeing his appearance, Wu Cai knew that he was only one step short. As long as he could reflect his value, his dream of earning 500 taels this year might be realized. Wu Cai, who was originally an old fox, didn't say much at this time, just squinted his eyes and smiled at Shi Yiwen and said.

"The young master said very much. Since you drink and chat with the young master, you must make the young master feel that it is worth the money!"

While speaking, Wu Cai leaned forward and tentatively said.

"Young Master, you are a noble man. Maybe you don't care much about the trivial matters on the street. You probably haven't heard of it yet. In addition to the Tuanjie soap of your son, there is another soap in Nanjing. It is quite popular in Nanjing. I heard that the soap that comes from ships is shipped every day on the dock. I guess it has been sold all over Nanjing now."

“Soap?”

Shi Yiwen said in a little surprised that he was only busy with mosquito coils for a while, and he really didn't care much about the soap factory.

Soap?

Who else can make soap besides yourself?

Tang Family?

No, haven’t I reached an agreement with her?

Shi Yiwen's surprise fell into Wu Cai's eyes. As expected, there was no news yet. This discovery made him feel a little proud. The reason why he chose to come here now was because of the discovery of soap.
