Chapter 611: The Number One Woman Who Won't Be Sad (Part 1)
The house in Tangmen, Sichuan can be said to be extremely prosperous, towering, covered with red and green. The entire courtyard wall occupies almost half a long street, and it is impossible to see at first sight. The pair of stone lions in front of the door even compares the pair of cold Pixiu in the Chengdu government office. The stone lions are all white in shape and spirit, with extraordinary prestige, and are even taller than the one in the government office. Wu Yonglin was stunned by the gilded red-bottomed plaque.
The report was sent in by the doorman and was delayed. When the other party came back again, half an hour had passed without realizing it. From this irrelevant detail, we can imagine that the Tang Mansion could probably catch up with the Jia Mansion, which was once popular in "Dream of Red Mansions". If not, the other party would probably want to give Wu Yonglin a warning. After Wu Yonglin and Zhang San, who was carrying a heavy gift, entered the huge red door covered with copper nails with the well-dressed gatekeeper, he knew from the inside that suddenly opened up in his eyes that he had not been neglected. The Tang Mansion was too big, and the one in front of him could
The wide martial arts field of horse racing covers an area that can match the Wu Mansion, which Wu Yonglin claims to be pretty good. The square is surrounded by weapon stands, stone locks, stone tiles and other complex instruments for practicing stamina, which makes people dazzled. One by one, a man with a powerful and solemn expression is standing under the sun to breathe and practice boxing or qi, both hard and soft, and whispering. Wu Yonglin took a look with interest. This basic move of practicing sank in winter and practicing sank in summer is a bit like the "Five Fist of Xingyi" in Shaolin Temple. In fact, it is necessary to combine the heart and mind, the intention and qi, the qi and force, the shoulders and hips, the elbows and waist, and the hands and feet.
At this moment, a carriage slowly stopped beside them, and horses were walking in the house. This was the first time Wu Yonglin saw it. The doorman made a gesture of invitation. Seeing Wu Yonglin's face, the doorman's eyes immediately changed, which was a bit similar to the contempt of an arrogant city man looking at the country bumpkin. Zhang San next to him was about to have an attack, but Wu Yonglin stopped him and took out two ingots of silver from his arms, handed it to the doorman and the driver of the carriage, and said in a humble tone: "You are tired, you two go buy some wine."
When the concierge saw the large silver that he had earned a year, he was already so happy that he could hardly stop talking. He changed his previous arrogant attitude and hurriedly pulled a bench from the carriage. Wu Yonglin was not polite to him and directly stepped into the carriage. Zhang San, who was breathless, put down the gift in his hand and sat side by side with him. Zhang San, who was worried, saw the door and the coachman coming over to envy his eyes, his face suddenly became brighter, and his chest, which was not very confident, was even more straight forward.
(I'm talking about the value of one tael of silver here. Before the Song Dynasty, the total amount of silver was too small and the value was too high, and it had not become a circulating currency. (Think about it, what would happen if you take a banknote with a denomination of more than 2,000 yuan to the market to buy things?), it only exists in the rewards and accounting settlement of the court, such as taxes, state payments (such as how much "silver" was given to gold and the Xixia, etc.). In fact, before the Ming Dynasty, copper coins were used in the market circulation (paper money appeared in some areas of the Northern Song Dynasty). Silver became a circulating currency only after the foreign trade was active in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and foreign silver poured in large quantities. But why do many people always think that silver was a circulating currency in history? It is mainly because the popularity of the Ming and Qing novels was based on the living conditions at that time. They were all based on common sense. But why do many people always think that silver was a circulating currency in history? It is mainly because the popularity of the Ming and Qing novels was based on the life situation at that time.
In the dynasty, such as "Water Margin", "Jin Ping Mei", "Three Words and Two Pai", etc., the value of silver in these works is based on the silver price of the Ming Dynasty, and is mixed with the original currency units such as the original literary, Guan, Shu, and Zhu, and has a great influence on later generations. Therefore, modern people have written more historical novels based on ancient China as the background. Martial arts novels such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" also describe all the money circulating in ancient times as "silver". But after all, modern people are farther away from each other than those in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and their understanding of the monetary system and the actual purchasing power of silver in the previous dynasty is even less than that of the people in the Ming and Qing dynasties, so there are often sky-high steamed buns and sky-high wine and food. Serious readers or viewers should have a clearer understanding of the value of "silver" out of curiosity about the economic situation in the ancient times.
"How much is one tael of silver worth": One tael of silver worth in the middle and late Qing Dynasty is worth about RMB 150-220; the middle Ming Dynasty is worth RMB 600-800; the middle Northern Song Dynasty is worth RMB 600-1300 (or RMB 1,000-1,800); the middle Tang Dynasty is worth RMB 2,000-4,000.
Guo Jing first met Huang Rong and was slaughtered by her. As a result, "I settled the bill in a while, and it was 19 taels and 7 cents in total." A meal of ordinary wine and meals was 20,000 yuan. Now the bad restaurants that slaughtered customers in the Golden Week scenic area dare not do this. In "Dream of Red Mansions", Liu Laolao saw a meal of crabs for 24 taels of silver, and lamented that a small family could live for a year. You should know that Liu Laolao's family was also middle-class at that time, and she could afford to hire a worker girl. The first time she went to the Jia family to fight for the autumn wind, she got 20 taels of silver, which was very grateful. "History of Ming Dynasty" also mentioned that the annual salary (basic salary) of the seventh-rank magistrate was only 45 taels of silver. In the middle and late Southern Song Dynasty, the circulation of silver was lower than that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and its value could only be higher. These 19 taels of rice were more than 19 taels of rice, no matter how rare the delicious food was, it seemed too much.)
After about a cup of tea, the originally unfast carriage stopped at the end of the martial arts venue. Of course, there was a carriageman who intended to please Wu Yonglin, or they were stopped by someone in the middle. Wu Yonglin just jumped out of the carriage and was startled by the situation in front of him. On his left was a stone platform several meters long and wide. At this moment, two chairs of the Lihuamu Taishi placed on the stone platform, one on the left and one on the right were sitting on a man and one woman. The man's face was covered with wine and color, his body was weak, and his eyes were unsightly.
After glanced at Wu Yonglin, he no longer had any interest. He picked up a piece of fresh red and white peach divided into several pieces from an exquisite Ru kiln fish plate next to him and put it into his mouth. He started eating it, constantly pointing fingers at the warrior in the distance, as if he was angry with his incompetent demeanor. However, he caused a cold look around him. Even the woman next to him stared at him, and he immediately shrank his neck honestly and turned into a turtle with his head shrank.
The woman was facing Wu Yonglin's eyes at that moment, with complex eyes full of eyes. She didn't understand why Lord Wu suddenly appeared here. After all, everyone usually does not violate the rivers. Out of courtesy, she pushed the brother Tang Wei next to her, and the two bowed and sang a promise to Wu Yonglin.
Tang Wan looked at Zhang San beside Wu Yonglin constantly unloading various gifts with red ribbons from his carriage, and an unknown anger burst out from his heart, and his words to Wu Yonglin became cold.
"Mr. Wu, we are not rewarded without merit. I am really ashamed of this valuation. Lord Wu should take it back." Tang Wan looked refusing to keep others from thousands of miles away.
Wu Yonglin couldn't figure out what was going on at this time. Could it be that the female evil star who had just sent in was intercepted by the letter he had just sent in? What was the situation where she knew nothing just now? Wu Yonglin didn't want to return so idle. He was busy every day and didn't want to waste too much energy on it. Just preparing this car of gifts took him a lot of attention. This time he made up his mind that since he came, he had to do this errand of "Master Dabing" as part of it.
"Miss Tang, I think you misunderstood. I came to find you specifically."
"Look for me?" Tang Wan didn't understand for a moment, and her hostile eyes just now became calmer. The other party's words regarded herself as an unmarried woman, and she couldn't help but look at the red and green gifts beside Wu Yonglin. She didn't find any gifts like "Yan" that were necessary for marriage proposals, which made her feel less good. However, she and the other party had no experience of having sex with Yu Lu. The other party suddenly came to her for her, but instead made her embarrassed. A cone's face immediately turned red, and Wu Yonglin's eyes also became ambiguous. It seemed that next time she didn't mind turning the Lord Wu in front of her into her guest of the curtain.
Wu Yonglin lowered his head and closed his eyebrows, deliberately avoiding the burning gaze in the other party's eyes, and then asked: "Ms. Tang must have heard of 'perfume', right?"
Tang Wan's bulging chest suddenly fluttered, and she asked with a look of surprise and confusion on her face, "What does Lord Wu mean?"
"I was lucky enough to buy a bottle from a businessman with a lot of money. As the saying goes, "Swords are given to heroes, and red pinks are given to beauties." This hard-earned 'perfume' is naturally the most feminine Miss Tang in Chengdu. As for other rouge powder, it simply defiles its famous reputation."
Tang Wan felt something different when she heard Wu Yonglin's sweet words, which were either praise or derogatory. After all, she had already become famous. The other party's words made her feel relieved. She asked anxiously: "Can you give me a try?"
"What does it mean to try? This thing is not worth a penny for me. Miss Tang can take it and wipe it on her body to make herself an unparalleled woman with fragrance in her soul." When Wu Yonglin handed the small porcelain bottle containing perfume to Tang Wan's hand, the other party deliberately stroked it in his hand, and a charming look in his eyes showed a look of smoke, which made Wu Yonglin unable to help but sway. However, before he could recall it, a resentful roar changed all this.
"Wanwan, who is this person?" A man with a dusty face, tired face, but particularly outstanding eyes stood aside, and then his face was more disappointed, helpless and depressed. This person was Ruan Zhifei, who had just returned from thousands of miles away, and Tang Wan's nominal husband.
"A man who admires me." Tang Wan's words were like adding fuel to the fire. Ruan Zhifei could pretend not to know about his wife's past. Seeing that the adulterer who was looking around came to the door, he could not bear it even if he was well-educated. With a wave of his hand, a big black-faced eagle-eyed man suddenly emerged from behind, and he rushed towards Wu Yonglin without saying a word.
Wu Yonglin screamed in pain. In front of them, he did not dare to reveal the secret of his kung fu. Today, he only brought Zhang San who could not kung fu. He just hit the opponent's fist as big as a bowl, and probably would have lost half his life. Wu Yonglin remembered that there was a piece of dragon beard powder candy in the gift he brought. Fortunately, he marked it in advance. He accidentally grabbed the box of dragon beard powder candy from the pile of gifts, and slowly retreated into the corner.
"Big...bold...how dare you be so rude to the imperial officials? Believe it or not... I, Wu Bo, asked the messengers in the yamen office to catch you and kill your dog's head."
"You are Wu Bo from Chengdu Prefecture? This is really a narrow road for enemies. I happen to have a calculation to settle with you."
"Dare you ask the hero's surname? When and where did we take on the hatred?"
"You can't even hold a basket of bad things you have done, so you naturally don't remember them." The veins on the forehead of the black-faced man soared, his blood-filled eyes, and the joints on his fists exploded, and he leaned towards Wu Yonglin, who had no way out in the corner, like an eagle catching a chicken.
It was too late for Ruan Zhifei to stop him at this moment. He brought such a green forest figure by his side. What was wrong with Wu Bo, the prefect here today? He couldn't wash it clearly even if he jumped into the Yellow River. His business and life had come to an end. After hearing the hero who happened to make friends on the road, Ruan Zhifei's next order to the other party had no effect. He had already disappeared. He was sweating all over his body. He shook his body and rushed forward to catch Tang Wan's swaying figure who was applying perfume to his body. He begged him to his mouth, and he almost knelt down to him. That would be so pitiful.
"I'm a coward, no wonder our Wanwan looks down on you." Pili Yangqiu was completely unrelated to him. Tang Wei, who was watching the fun, said coldly.
"Go away, aren't you very manly just now? I'll solve the trouble you caused by yourself." Tang Wan shook her hand and pushed Ruan Zhifei away. She seemed to have no interest in intervening. She took this opportunity to drive this "sweet" away from her side. She won't have so many concerns in the future.
Ruan Zhifei staggered and almost fell to the ground. The indifference around him aroused his fierceness. In order to change his views on him, he casually held a protective dagger in his hand and rushed to the person who led the wolf into the room and would cause him endless trouble.
But that giant man was not an ordinary person. He seemed to have eyes behind him, and his figure flashed to the side. He had already easily captured Ruan Zhifei, who was unable to help but be weak with a giant hand that seemed to have a thousand pounds of strength. He smiled contemptuously. Tang Wan and Tang Wei were even more standing by and pretending to ignore him. Ruan Zhifei had no idea of survival for such a cold and weak situation. He closed his eyes and pressed his body towards the dagger that had just been snatched from the other party's hand.
A stream of salty, fishy, and even a sweet warm liquid poured into his mouth. Then a wailing sound came from the mouth of the giant black-faced man. Ruan Zhifei suddenly opened his eyes and found that the knife that was still in the hands of the giant big man had been inserted into the other party's chest at some point, and there were some white powder and silk objects on his face in the other party's eyes. At a loss, Ruan Zhifei, who was stunned, was then pulled back, avoiding the attack range of an injured and charming angry beast that burst out with terrifying combat power. The black-faced man fell to the ground and died without struggling for a long time.
"I killed him just now?" Ruan Zhifei looked at Tang Wan beside him. Tang Wei looked at him with fearful eyes, murmured at Wu Yonglin, who was sitting on the ground at the same time as him, and was in a mess.
