Wan Jun's face was pale. He lowered his head and didn't say a word. The scholars behind him also lowered their heads and didn't say a word.
Everyone, including the woman on the stage, looked at Qian Duoduo with unprecedented changes in their eyes.
"Brother Wan, how is this poem? It's not bad, right?"
Qian Duoduo looked at Wan Jun and said, "I don't know why, but my thoughts are flowing like a spring today. Just now, I came across another poem. Brother Wan, do you want to help me appreciate it?"
"You … don't push me too far!"
Wan Jun raised his head and widened his eyes, which were full of anger.
Qian Duoduo looked at him and narrowed his eyes, saying, "Brother Wan, have you forgotten what you just said?"
…
"I was wrong!" Wan Jun's expression changed. He said in a low voice and turned around, saying, "Let's go!"
Seeing that they were about to leave, one of the people behind Qian Duoduo wanted to stop them but was stopped by him.
Qian Duoduo waved his hand and said, "Forget about kowtowing. I don't want to have such an unfilial son …"
Many people looked at the backs of Wan Jun and the others as they left with complicated expressions.
If Wan Jun really kowtowed and admitted his mistake tonight, he would lose all his face. After tomorrow, he would definitely become the laughing stock of Feng State City.
Although he temporarily saved his face by leaving like this, it was inevitable that he would end up going back on his word.
If Qian Duoduo was just an idiot and the poem was really bought, it would be fine. But … he threw out two more poems just like that and shut everyone's mouth.
With that kind of talent, how could he sell his poems to others for money? Unless he really kidnapped Zhao Xiuwen and forced him to write poems for him. Otherwise, he had always been low-key and never revealed anything. However, if it was the latter, what was the reason?
One person looked at Qian Duoduo with eyes full of admiration and said, "Hey, Brother Qian, you just said that you have a new poem. Read it for us …"
"Read what? Low-key, low-key …" Qian Duoduo waved his hand and said, "We'll talk about it next time."
Just now, he had desperately memorized two poems. When he read the first one, he almost read out the two words' Xiao Ping '. If he hadn't remembered that there was an annotation below the sentence, where the word' Xiao Ping 'could be written with any woman's name, he would have almost made a fool of himself.
He even marked out such details. That brother was really meticulous to the extreme. He could simply be called a businessman with a conscience.
"Let's go."
Eating and drinking were not his goals. He had already done what he needed to do. Seeing those poor scholars suffer made him feel carefree. Qian Duoduo waved his hand and walked out of the door.
"Young Master Qian, please wait."
Qian Duoduo turned his head in confusion and saw the woman named Feifei coming down. She smiled and said to him, "I wonder if Feifei has the honor to invite Mr. Qian upstairs for a chat?"
Qian Duoduo was stunned and said, "Yes!"
Seeing the two of them walking up while talking and laughing, the people behind Qian Duoduo stood there in a daze. "Brother Qian …"
"You guys go back first. I want to talk about poetry with Miss Feifei." Qian Duoduo didn't look back. He waved his hand and said.
"It's good to know how to write poems." Seeing the two of them enter a certain room, someone sighed and said with a sigh.
Before today, Qian Duoduo was still the same as them, relying on throwing money to attract the attention of these women. After today, he had completely left their ranks. Just like today, they could only sigh as they watched him and Miss Feifei's back …
Very quickly, the woman on the stage changed to another person. However, she did not receive much attention from the crowd. It was unknown how many people were looking at the tightly shut door upstairs with complicated feelings …
…
…
Li Yi pushed open the door and stretched comfortably. He let out a long breath of foul air and could not help but feel refreshed.
The medicinal herbs must have really worked. These days, Miss.Liu's body was recovering very quickly. Apart from being unable to use her Vital Qi, she was no different from a normal person in other aspects.
At this rate, it would not be long before this trip to the Qi Kingdom came to a successful end.
He had asked Lin Wanru before. The Lin family's caravan had no plans to go to the Jing Kingdom in the near future. Being in a foreign country, he could not find anyone he could trust to send a message. Thinking about it, the news that Ruyi and the others had received should only be the last time he and Miss.Liu appeared in Shuzhou. The possibility of them finding this place was very small.
He could not leave the injured Miss.Liu here alone. There was no one he could use, so he could only put this matter aside for the time being.
"Li Brothers, Miss wants to see you." Lin Yong's figure appeared at the door.
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Got it. I'll go right away."
These days, he had been meeting with Miss Lin almost every day. After learning how to use the debit and credit method, she took out all the previous accounts and calculated them one by one. Sometimes, when she encountered a problem, she would ask him for help.
When walking into Fanglin Garden, Li Yi's eyes inadvertently glanced around. A hint of surprise appeared on his face. He looked at Lin Yong and asked, "What about the horse stepping on swallows?"
"It was sold."
Hearing this, Lin Yong said somewhat gloomily.
"Who sold it?" Li Yi looked at him and asked.
"Of course it was Miss." Lin Yong sighed and said, "Although it was sold for a total of 13,000 taels, which is a profit of 5,000 taels, I just don't like that Bai guy. If it wasn't for him pestering us all day, Miss would definitely not have sold it. These days, business has not been as good as before …"
"Believe in your Miss. It's good to sell it." Li Yi patted him on the shoulder and walked to a room in the backyard of the shop.
That Bai guy really loved this Miss Lin. He fought to prevent losses for the Lin family. He was the most suitable spare tire.
He knocked on the door and a gentle voice came from inside.
"Is it Li? Come in."
Lin Wanru was sitting at the table and writing something seriously. Li Yi walked over and shook his head after glancing at it.
That guy surnamed Qian was really addicted to showing off. In just a few days, he had written 13 poems. It was extremely ostentatious. Did he really want to be the Poet Sage of the Qi Kingdom?
Seeing him shake his head, Lin Wanru put down the pen and said with a smile, "It's not good. I'm sorry."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "It's a lot better than before."
"I still have to thank you for your guidance." Lin Wanru stood up and said.
She was very clear that her calligraphy could make such great progress in such a short period of time. It was all because of his advice from time to time.
The more she interacted with him, the more she found that this scholar who was "picked up" had many unexpected things.
First was his amazing calligraphy. Second was his culinary skills. He seemed to know some martial arts too. Even some of the views on business that he revealed in a few words were also a great inspiration to her.
This always made her suspicious. Could it be that every scholar in Jing Guo was like this?
Li Yi's gaze moved away from the poem she had copied and asked, "Is there something wrong with the accounts again?"
Lin Wanru shook her head and said, "I actually invited you here because I have a presumptuous request."
The concept of presumptuous request was too broad. Some things could be agreed to and some could not be agreed to. After all, Miss.Liu was still here, so he still had to pay attention to some things …
"What is it?" Li Yi looked at her and asked.
He had to clarify whether he could agree to it or not.
"There's an important meeting tomorrow night. Several big trading companies in Feng State will be participating. Brother Lin is straightforward, so it's not suitable for him to participate. I don't know if you have time. I think …"
"That's it?"
"That's it."
Li Yi nodded with some disappointment. "If it's tomorrow night, I should have time …"
