Chapter 29 Selling Bamboo Paper
Zheng Cheng was so angry in his shop that he had nowhere to vent, so he sent shopkeeper Zheng to inquire about Li Xiao's shop, but he didn't return for a long time, thinking that Li Xiao turned around and turned against him!
Dang even found it, it wasn't the shopkeeper Zheng who was unlucky today, but Li Xiao!

But as soon as he got close to the crowd, he heard Li Xiao's sarcasm.

"Li Xiao, I don't understand selling shaved ice, but you actually dare to open a paper shop opposite my Zheng's paper shop and say such arrogant words, do you want to practice with me?"

When Zheng Cheng was kicked out of the shaved ice shop by Li Xiao, he had nowhere to go. Now that Li Xiao is in front of him, of course he can't lose the battle!

"Want to practice?" Li Xiao raised her brows, her eyes cast a contemptuous look, "You are not worthy!"

Li Xiao's words stimulated Zheng Cheng to roll up his sleeves and was about to step forward. Cheng Chumo's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. Since Li Xiao said that Zheng Cheng was not worthy of fighting with him, of course Cheng Chumo could only do it for him. Cheng Chumo wished for a fight.

It's a pity that Zheng Chengcheng is a silver-shaped gun head, and he took a few steps back after Cheng Chumo lightly pushed him.

"I'm afraid that your body has been hollowed out by the girls of Yihong Courtyard?" Cheng Chumo teased with his arms around him.

"My lord, as the saying goes, a gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands! You are a scholar, how can you fight with Cheng Chumo? Wouldn't that be a loss?"

Shopkeeper Zheng helped Zheng Cheng up and comforted him softly.

"Yes, I'm a scholar. Wouldn't that insult Confucius?" Zheng Cheng began to comfort himself, "Didn't you say that you are not afraid of comparing people with others, but you are afraid of comparing goods?"

"That's fine! Can you compare our rice paper? Li Xiao, do you dare to agree?"

This is not the rescue sent by the monkey, is it?Do you still dare to promise?

"Why don't you dare? If you lose, you will close the door and go out of business. Dare you?"

Of course, Li Xiao has investigated the paper on the market, so why not dare!

"It's a joke, the young master is the eldest son of the Zheng family in Xingyang, what's the matter?"

Shopkeeper Zheng hurriedly covered Zheng Cheng's mouth, "Young master, Li Xiao is the only one in this shop. If he agrees, we will be at a disadvantage! Besides, what if he gets some high-quality paper from where to compare us?" ? Of course this is impossible, but just in case!"

When Zheng Cheng heard this, he calmed down a little, "Li Xiao, you are shameless, you just use one shop to win my Zheng's countless paper shops, and you are still a paper shop that has not opened yet, do you want to be shameless?"

Li Xiao secretly said it's a pity that he didn't fall into the trap.

"Since that's the case, whoever loses should hang the sign 'My Zheng's paper shop is not as good as Xinyi Commercial Paper Shop' at the door of his shop, right?"

Hearing this, Zheng Cheng cursed inwardly, "Zhi Niang is a traitor, and she still wants to take advantage of Lao Tzu verbally, "Okay, if you lose, hang up 'Xinyi Commercial Bank's paper is not as good as Xingyang Zheng's!' How about it?"

Just when Li Xiao was about to agree, an old voice rang out, "I think the two of you are still one judge away. Zheng Cheng's face is not good-looking. Hearing someone dare to speak out at this time, no matter what you do, you are ready to talk about it first." Addiction, turned around and was about to scold, but it seemed that the old man's attitude changed instantly.

"Yu Shilang, you kid, how dare you bother me?"

Li Xiao saw the person coming, with a haggard face, a white beard about a foot long, a black robe, and a weak appearance. He heard that the official position should be a servant, and asked Cheng Chumo, "Is this Yu Shinan?"

Cheng Chumo whispered in Li Xiao's ear, "That's right! Yongxing county magistrate, calm by nature, persistent and eager to learn, was called "virtue, loyalty, erudition, writing, and calligraphy". If he is the judge, there is nothing to say , will never favor anyone!"

Although Yu Shinan looks cowardly and weak, he has a strong temperament, speaks out and dares to advise, and is respected by Li Shimin, and his calligraphy is excellent.

"Hehe, Xiao Zheng, you know that the hobby of this old man in his life is pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so there are always some people who are better than paper, so he came here uninvited."

Yu Shinan's voice was like a bell, in sharp contrast to his fragile appearance.

"My lord, from what you said, it would be great to have you as the judge. In that case, if Li Xiao loses, how dare he renege on his debt?"

Zheng Cheng was full of respect, and said with a smile and without shame.

"Then what does little brother Li say?" Yu Shinan looked at Li Xiao kindly.

Yu Shinan was supposed to be a little late today, and on the way he was thinking about Li Xiao's original Three Character Classic that he had borrowed from Li Gang. When passing by Zhuque Street, someone said Li Xiao, so he squeezed in to see the excitement.

At the moment, he doesn't care if he will offend others, so why does he only like the Four Treasures of the Study?
With Cheng Chumo's whispering, Li Xiao knew that the servant would be fair and just, so he nodded in agreement immediately.

As soon as Zheng Cheng saw that Li Xiao agreed, as if he was afraid that he would go back on his word, he immediately ordered, "Old Zheng, move the table and case, and bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"

Since you want to compare, you must not just take a look at it. If you don’t write it, how can you identify the pros and cons?
The people who watched the excitement didn't think it was a big deal, and they were still calling for friends to watch the excitement.

When the table was set up, Zheng Cheng waved his hand, and the shopkeeper Zheng held a knife of paper and gently placed it on the table.

The rice paper is unfolded gently, white as snow, the paper surface is flat, with faint bamboo curtain patterns, the cut edges are neat and clean, and there are no folds, cracks, holes, sand grains and attachments on the paper surface that affect the use of flaws.

Yu Shinan immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Well, shopkeeper Zheng, what month have I not bought a few knives of paper from your Zheng's paper shop, but I have never seen such a fine product!"

Shopkeeper Zheng smiled awkwardly, "Don't be surprised by Yu Shilang, this is the new treasure of the store, and the whole Zheng family doesn't have a few knives. It's the young master's face, so he just put a knife in the shop, and the rest, All of them are kept in the old man's place, so, hehe."

"Comparing such a good thing with Xinyi Commercial Bank, then you are a bit of a bully."

Yu Shinan had a very good impression of Li Xiao, so he had to fight for him, comparing his treasured items with someone else's newly opened store. This is not bullying, what is it?
"Uncle Yu, it was Li Xiao who said the words, and you have to throw away the goods. If he is willing to let it go, for Uncle Yu's sake today, don't let him write 'Xinyi Commercial Bank's paper is not as good as Zheng's in Xingyang!'"

While Zheng Cheng was talking to Yu Shinan, he squinted at Li Xiao's joke, but he didn't know that Li Xiao didn't like him at all, his calm appearance made Zheng Cheng angry.

"Master Yu Shilang, whether it's a mule or a horse, you have to pull it out for a walk. You can start!" Li Xiao saw Yu Shinan's concerns, and after saluting immediately, he rejected Yu Shinan's kindness.

Hey, this kid got too close to Cheng Chumo, so his brain became so reckless?If you don't listen to my old man's advice, you won't be able to save your face and reputation later!
