Chapter 212 Buying Questions
Wu Wenshi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Uncle Wang, is there something wrong with me to look for you? Let's go into the house and say it's okay?"
Zhao Jian thought to himself, "So this old man with a very energetic surname is Wang. Does he follow the surname of the master? But is there a surname of the prince Xima? Which prince Xima?"
Old Master Wang nodded, and was about to let Wu Wenshi come in, but saw Zhao Jian behind Wu Wenshi. He frowned and said, "Who is this person? You know I don't like to meet foreign guests!"
Wu Wenshi hurriedly said, "This person is my good friend. He is a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam this time. He was the Jinshi student. I knew you could get the exam questions, so I came to ask!"
Old Master Wang was shocked, looked at Wu Wenshi, and then looked at Zhao Jian. He reached out and pushed Wu Wenshi and said, "You'd better not go into the house. I have nothing to talk about with you. I can't get the test questions. You've found the wrong person!"
Seeing him driving people, Zhao Jian hurried forward and said, "I don't know what the father-in-law calls him, who is the housekeeper of the prince who is the mansion?"
But the old man Wang said, "I don't want to tell you my name, nor do I want to tell you which prince Xima's mansion I am a housekeeper. You should leave and don't come to me. I don't have any questions to test. I don't have a good memory, so I forget it after reading it!"
His words were very straightforward, but Zhao Jian was overjoyed. From these words, he could hear that the old man must be the housekeeper of a prince, and he had seen the test questions, otherwise he would say he didn't know, how could he say he would forget? How could he forget such an important thing after seeing it?
Zhao Jian quickly said, "Brother Wang, please offer a price. I can't buy your test questions? I only buy the Jinshi exam questions." He said, squeezing into the door.
Old Master Wang was furious. His strength was not as strong as Zhao Jian. Zhao Jian was actually squeezed into the yard. Old Master Wang said, "What should I be punished if I break into a private house!"
Wu Wenshi also entered the yard and said, "Uncle Wang, don't do this. If you want to see the test questions like this, you should show your compassion and let him take a look! Brother, you will definitely not look at the test questions in vain, right? Two hundred pillars, are there any problems?"
In order to show that he is very capable, Zhao Jian said, "No problem, the money is on me. As long as Mr. Wang borrows me from the exam questions, then these two hundred pillars will be yours. Of course, you must have the real exam questions!"
Old Master Wang glared at him and said to Zhao Jian, "You young man, you are so ignorant. Do you know whether this person named Wu is a good person or a bad person. Do you recognize him? If he is a bad person, he will deceive you here, then kill you with one knife, or knock you out, and steal the money away, where will you go to find him?"
Zhao Jian's face suddenly changed, right? He just thought about buying test questions, but forgot about safety issues. But since this old man Wang said so, it proves that he is not a bad person and is not the same as this Wu Wenshi!
Wu Wenshi said, "Uncle Wang, what are you talking about? You have met your nephew on the first day. How can I do that? This is a business. If you are willing to do it, you will do it. If you don't want to sell it, then we'll leave. Keep it for 200 guan to buy land and houses, and everything is enough!"
As he said that, Wu Wenshi pulled Zhao Jian and left, but Zhao Jian didn't want to leave. He felt that this old man Wang might have really had a test question and would not be a liar. The liar should try hard to buy it himself. How could he point out himself instead? This is not in line with common sense!
When the old man Wang saw that Wu Wenshi was about to leave, he immediately said, "Go quickly and go quickly, don't waste time with me. If you have any test questions, please go to anyone. Don't bother me at my house!"
As he spoke, he pushed Wu Wenshi and Zhao Jian vigorously and pushed them out the door. However, Zhao Jian refused to go out, and the old man Wang really couldn't push him. Wu Wenshi went out directly. It was obvious that Zhao Jian didn't leave, so he had to come back and wanted to pull Zhao Jian out.
At this moment, someone suddenly ran over in the backyard. It was a young man. He shouted, "Father, grandfather, he vomited blood again. After taking the medicine, I have to go and get the medicine. Dad, do you have money? One dose of medicine has to be taken three doses in a row. You have to buy some supplements. I'm afraid it will take three and a half to get it!"
Old Master Wang didn't care about pushing Zhao Jian anymore and said anxiously, "Why are you vomiting blood again? Please wait, I'll get the money!" He quickly walked to the backyard and ignored Zhao Jian and Wu Wenshi.
The young man agreed, looked at Zhao Jian, and saw Wu Wenshi again. He exclaimed and said, "Brother Wu, why are you here?"
Wu Wenshi sighed and said in a few words that he wanted to take the exams here and was willing to spend money to buy them. After hearing this, the young man saw his intentional expression. His father was unwilling to sell it, but he was willing. It seemed like this.
The young man said, "What kind of test questions are? My father never tells them to others, nor tells me. However, even if he knows the test questions, it is useless. You have to be able to do something, and you have to do better than others. That is also very difficult. Anyway, I have a headache when I read the book!"
Zhao Jian was in his heart. This young man must be a person who failed to study. He thought about it. He was just the son of a housekeeper. Just like his father, he had the greatest potential. He could not focus on studying. Of course, he could not understand what the test questions mean in advance.
Zhao Jian asked, “Is your grandfather sick?”
The young man nodded and said, "Yes, I've been sick for many years, and this time I'm serious. I don't know if I can get through it. But the medicine I took was too expensive. I have almost spent all my savings at home. This house has to be mortgaged and exchanged for my grandfather to treat me!"
He looked around, looked at the small house, and sighed, "If there is no house, where will the family live? Will the grandfather's condition worsen after being tossed? Alas!"
Zhao Jian asked, "How much money does it cost to cure your grandfather's illness?"
The young man shook his head and said, "The bottomless pit is unknown! However, it seems that if he has to survive the end of the year, he will have to at least 250 taels, and it is impossible to lose any more!"
After hearing this, Wu Wenshi shook his head and said, "I think even if you have a wealth of thousands of yuan, you will have to spend all this treatment. This is only the end of the year, and you will have to 250 yuan. If you have to endure a few more years, your family will probably have to borrow usury. I guess your son's generation will not pay it back!"
The young man said, "He is grandfather. As long as we can afford to spend money, we must save him. We can't watch him fail!"
Wu Wenshi nodded and said, "That's right, it's just a pain for you!"
Zhao Jian didn't say anything, but thought to himself, "He has a patient at home, and he is in a hurry to use money. It costs at least 250 stakes, which is fifty stakes more than I expected. I just don't know what the disease is. I have to take such expensive medicine. Good guy, I always have a dose of medicine. This can be said to be a disease of Fugui!"
He touched his chest and he wore a good jade pendant, which was probably worth 20 to 30 stakes. With his own two ingots of gold, he could reach about 150 stakes. With the full shoal of 100 stakes of him, he probably could do it in a sloppy way!
If you don’t want to sell 200 coins, you won’t be able to sell 250 coins. Then Old Master Wang should be able to agree?
Zhao Jian really hopes he agrees!
At this time, Old Master Wang walked out from behind, holding about the copper coins he had been holding in his hand, and handed them to the young man, saying, "There is only so much money at home. Take it and grab a dose of medicine first. I will go to Langjun's house and ask Langjun to think of a solution!"
The young man took the money, but said, "Mr. Lang is a clean official, and his family has no money. Besides, he has borrowed it several times, so he probably can't borrow it. Otherwise, let's sell the house and raise money to treat my grandfather and take medicine!"
Old Master Wang looked at this small house with reluctance in his eyes. It seemed that this was an ancestral home, his father's. Now, in order to treat his father's illness, he is going to sell his father's house!
Zhao Jian was also very moved when he saw this. Old Man Wang was a filial son and was particularly concerned about his father's condition. He could make a fuss about it. He said, "Brother Wang, why not give me 250 taels of power. You showed me the Jinshi exam questions, how about it?"
The young man was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Father, if you have 250 taels of money, then your grandfather's medicine fee will be settled. Please tell me about the test questions!"
Old Master Wang was hesitant, but he still shook his head. It seemed that he still didn't want to leak the test questions. He should know that leaking the test questions was a serious crime!
The young man said again, "Our family has no money and no place to borrow. We have asked us to borrow the money several times. Apart from selling the house, I don't think there is any way, but if my grandfather left the house and went to another place, even if he had money to give him medicine, he would probably be angry to death!"
"What are you dead, you're talking nonsense!" Old Master Wang scolded, but he seemed to be very shaken when he looked.
At this time, Zhao Jian spoke, and he said, "Forget it, if I really don't sell it, I won't force it anymore, so I'll leave!" He turned around and walked out the door.
Wu Wenshi shouted together with the young man, "Is it important to treat the disease? Is it better to sell the exam questions!"
The old man Wang stamped his feet and said, "Okay, okay, then sell it. However, 250 kcals are required to make cash, but it is not OK to use credit!"
Zhao Jian was overjoyed. It was too difficult for Mr. Wang to finally sell it. If it weren't for his family's patients and urgently needed money to buy medicine, Mr. Wang would probably still refuse to sell it. However, this is the best way to avoid Mr. Wang's purchase of him and then selling it to others. The more people he sells, the less cost-effective he buys the questions.
Zhao Jian was afraid that Old Master Wang would return, so he took out gold and his own jade pendant from his arms, stuffed it into Old Master Wang's hand, and said, "Where are the test questions, give them to me!"
Old Master Wang sighed and asked the young man to bring paper and pen. He wrote the title of the Jinshi exam on paper, folded it, handed the note to Zhao Jian, and then said, "I saw these questions. I will give them to you now. I have the title. You can leave quickly, so as not to regret it!"
Zhao Jianxin thought, "It's too late for you to regret now. As long as I take a look, I will keep it in mind. There is no need to buy your test questions anymore."
He was about to open the note and look at the test questions, but was stopped by Wu Wenshi and said, "This is not possible. You can't read it here. If you want to regret it after reading it, what should you do if you ask for money back? Let's talk about it when you are outside!"
The young man also said, "Let's go out and see!"
Wu Wenshi and the young man held Zhao Jian out of the yard, one left and one right, and arrived outside the gate. The young man put the door on it. Then Wu Wenshi said, "Can you see it now?"
Zhao Jian nodded and said, "If I don't look at it, then I really don't want it!"
He opened the note and saw the test questions inside. There were more than one, several of them, mainly timely plans, but these questions were trivial, and even the last big question was how to adjust the prices in Chang'an so that the people could eat meat frequently!
Zhao Jian said, "What's going on? How could it be such a question? Shouldn't it be the kind of Liaodong or the southwest question? How could it be the price of Chang'an? It's really hard to believe!"
This kind of question should only be something women care about. The imperial examination is such a serious matter, how can it be made into the vegetable basket? Isn’t this test question fake?
Zhao Jian really had an impulse at this time. He wanted to return the goods, so he didn't want to buy this test question. It was too unpredictable!
