I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

That way you get a copy for free. "

After all, there are still one hundred volumes, but Gu Ming played tricks.

Hearing this, He Yongliang couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Are you sure this is what you call giving money?"

"Why don't you send money? If you use your eloquence to tell this story well, someone will reward you."

"Then why should I sell books for you?"

"This way you can save a hundred"

He Yongliang thought for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, as you said."

"Refreshing! But I have something to say first, and the time limit is only seven days."

"As much as possible"

That night, Gu Ming finally opened a meat dish.

I went to the tavern and ordered a jug of wine, a lion's head, a braised pork, and a small plate of pig's trotters.

I ate a round belly.

The next day, it seemed that the time was changing, and when it was close to noon, two books were sold in one go.

This time, Gu Ming was encouraged, and shouted even harder: "Come, come, don't miss it when you pass by, let's see a generation of famous girls"

"Master Gu!"

Not long after, Yu'er suddenly came to the booth and handed over an invitation.

"My master read your poem yesterday, and wants to invite you to his house to have a narration."

"Oh?"

Gu Ming was overjoyed, subconsciously flipped through the invitation, then smiled and said: "Okay, please tell Master Nie, I will visit the house in the afternoon."

"Hee hee, okay, then I'll go first."

"Well, go slowly."

"You kid is amazing, you have climbed to the top so quickly."

Wu Laoqi sat on the side and said something sour.

Gu Ming replied lazily, and continued to shout: "Come, come, come, don't miss it when you pass by!"

When the sun turned west in the afternoon, another copy was sold.

Close the booth!

Gu Ming looked at the sky, decisively closed the bookstall, ran home to tidy up, washed his face, and changed into a relatively new gown.

After going out, he headed towards the county government.

On the way, after deliberation, I spent another two hundred to buy a pack of tea.

It's the first time you come to visit, you can't be empty-handed, right?

If you can't afford the expensive ones, you can only take a little care and cover your hands.

Soon after, they came to the county government.

Under normal circumstances, officials such as county magistrates and county magistrates mostly live in the inner courtyard of the yamen, and they can do both official business and home.

"Stop, the yamen is an important place, and the idlers are not allowed to trespass!"

"Xiaosheng is a scholar in this county, and came to visit at the invitation of Master Nie!"

After all, he is a scholar, Gu Ming responded with neither humility nor arrogance, and took out the invitation card as a gesture.

"So it's Master Nie's guest"

The gatekeepers on duty immediately changed their faces, smiling all over their faces, and one of them enthusiastically led Gu Ming into the yamen, all the way to the inner courtyard.

"Master Nie, there are guests here!"

Menzi stood outside the courtyard and reported.

"Master Gu, please come in."

Yu'er was in the courtyard, and came out immediately when she heard the voice.

After entering the hospital, Gu Ming just discovered that Nie Xiaoqian was also in the courtyard, and another middle-aged man was smiling and nodding.

Although we have never met, we can guess who it is.

Gu Ming took two quick steps, cupped his hands and bowed: "Student Gu Ming, I have met Mr. Nie!"

"Hehe, Gu Sheng doesn't need to be courteous to Yu'er, go make some tea."

"Yes, sir."

"By the way, this is a little kindness from the students"

At this time, Nie Xiaoqian stepped forward to take the paper bag, and said with a smile, "Mr. Gu is just here, what gift do you bring?"

"It's nothing, just a little tea"

"Don't stand, come, sit!"

Nie Hongshu was also enthusiastic, calling Gu Ming to sit down at the stone table.

After chatting for a while, Nie Hongshu couldn't help mentioning the three poems: "Yesterday, my little girl showed me the three poems you wrote, and they were absolutely amazing.

Therefore, the official has a sudden love for talents, and I invite you to come and have a talk. "

"Thank you for your love, my lord!"

After chatting for a while, Nie Hongshu couldn't help but glanced at the newly sprouted flowers and trees in the courtyard, and said slowly: "The early spring comes, and everything revives. Can Gu Sheng write a poem on the spot with spring as the theme, so that I can open my eyes? "

This is a test.

To put it bluntly, he still doubted whether those three poems were written by Gu Ming.

Therefore, a question was asked face to face to solve the confusion in my heart.

At the same time, Nie Xiaoqian also glanced at Gu Ming with anticipation.

She didn't have any suspicions, she just wanted to hear what kind of lines Gu Ming would come up with.

"This"

Gu Ming got up involuntarily and walked slowly.

I quickly screened it in my mind, and when I reached the third step, a word blurted out:

"Everyone says that Jiangnan is good, but tourists only like the old Jiangnan. The spring water is clear in the sky, and the boat is painted to listen to the rain.

"Wow"

Yu'er began to stare at the stars again.

Perhaps, she didn't quite understand the meaning of the words, but that didn't hinder the impact of the beautiful sentence on her soul.

The important thing is that this poem not only corresponds to spring, but also corresponds to the scene in the south of the Yangtze River.

After Yu'er wowed, she subconsciously glanced at the master.

No movement.

look at miss again

Still nothing.

Strange, even Yu'er thinks it sounds good, why haven't Master and Miss responded yet?

"Good! Good words! Good words!"

Nie Hongshu finally came back to his senses, clapped his palms and struck, with a shocked expression on his face.

Nie Xiaoqian also clapped her palms, her eyes shone with an indescribable expression.

A heart that throbs

"I compose it impromptuly. If there is anything wrong, I hope your lord and Miss Nie will give you more advice!"

Gu Ming looked "modest".

"Gu Sheng, with regard to the poem you just wrote, I really don't dare to show my ugliness and give advice. Just sit down, Yu'er, go and order the kitchen to add some dishes."

Dare to love, I chanted a song on the spot before adding food?

"By the way, Gu Sheng, since you have such talent, why don't you take the provincial examination? Once you pass the exam, even if you can't be an official, it will be a glorious thing for your family."

Indeed, there is a big difference between the status of a scholar and a scholar.

Although a scholar has some privileges, his status will not be improved too much, otherwise he will not be called a sour scholar, or even a poor scholar.

Once won the election, even if you don't become an official, you will definitely become a celebrity.

It's not that Gu Ming doesn't want to, it's the old saying, he won't pass the exam at all.

If Zhongju was so simple, there would be no stories like "Fan Jin went crazy when he got excited after Zhongju".

Chapter 10 I didn't expect Mr. Gu to be so insidious...

"Master Nie, the student's ambition is not in the imperial examination"

In front of Nie Xiaoqian, Gu Ming could only repeat what he said before.

"Forget it, everyone has his own aspirations"

Nie Hongshu sighed regretfully.

Then, after chatting for a while, the food and wine were finally brought to the table.

"Come on, Gu Sheng, you're welcome, I'm going to drink to my heart's content today."

During the banquet, Nie Hongshu frequently persuaded him to drink.

When the wine was full, I couldn't help but mention the dream my daughter mentioned.

"Although I don't believe this, I still want to refer to your opinion on some matters.

Before, you asked the little girl to remind me to be careful of villains. Could it be that there is some deep meaning? "

In fact, Nie Hongshu was still a little worried.

After all, he was not familiar with Guo Bei, so he naturally wanted to know more about it.

"This..." Gu Ming pondered for a while, and couldn't help saying seriously: "Excuse me for asking the question boldly, does Lord Nie want to be a good official?"

"Uh?"

Nie Hongshu was stunned.

Yu'er, who was standing by the side, winked anxiously.

How can someone ask so directly?

Isn't this intentional to make the master angry?

Fortunately, Nie Hongshu didn't get angry, but picked up the wine glass and drank it all alone.

Then he replied with a straight face: "This official is a dignified man, not like some officials bought with money."

This remark is also an indirect expression of attitude.

And what he alluded to was the magistrate of Guobei County: Qin Shou!

Just by hearing the name, it can be roughly inferred that his family is really innocent.

Donating officials was popular in the dynasty. To put it bluntly, it means buying officials with money to increase the court's income.

To donate to a county magistrate, the price starts at least a few thousand taels, and the highest can reach more than 1 taels.

For example, Qin Shou spent 8000 taels of silver to get his wish.

An official like this who doesn't know a lot of big characters and is eager to get back the money, can he be expected to be a clean official?

"Since that's the case, the student said it clearly. If Mr. Nie wants to be a good official loved by the people, he will surely offend many people.

Otherwise, they can only join forces with others.It's almost impossible to be alone. "

"Hehe, it's interesting, let's continue."
