The head storekeeper waved his hand and said, "These two people said that their literary skills are extraordinary, so they came here to write."
Bai He coughed lightly. This shopkeeper was clearly speaking nonsense.
Thinking of this, she immediately became somewhat unhappy. "Shopkeeper, we are only making a small wager. You don't have to hold onto this bet like that, right?"
"Who is this girl?" When the Master Zeng heard Bai He, he asked.
Bai He looked at this man, and thought that he must be a powerful person, and said: "My name is Bai He, I am a person who sells food in this town, my food is pretty good, if you guys want to eat it, remember to go to the streets tomorrow."
Yes, she was the one who would seize the opportunity to do so in such a short period of time.
"A businessman?" Master Zeng looked at Bai He. It was a girl, and laughed: "I never thought that Mo Pavilion's shopkeeper would be even worse than before. He actually doesn't even know what kind of person he is, and wants a girl to write an essay at the entrance of the academy. It's simply hilarious. "
Hearing him say that, Bai He was unhappy, how could this man be so preconceived?
She looked at the teacher and said, "Master Zeng, right? I know you're very cultured, but how can you look down on us businessmen? Second Young Master Song Song Yu should know that his essay is probably on par with more than a few people here. "
This was definitely possible as the Song Residence was a large family. Even if the people inside did not become officials, they would still possess great talent.
But who was this lady in front of him, she was just an ordinary businessman, and it was likely that her standards were not that high, but now, compared to the Second Young Master Song, it was just too funny.
However, Bai He did not know that they had mocked him. She continued, "Since it's like this, in a situation where you do not know about it, you cannot say such excessive words to me.
When Master Zeng heard her words, he retracted his contempt slightly. This girl did not look like an ordinary girl.
"Miss, may I know if you can read your essay?" Master Zeng said as he reached out his hand.
Bai He did not mind, after all, she had written an article for these people to see, so she generously took out a few pages she had written and gave it to Master Zeng.
When Master Zeng saw the words in his hands, he felt that they were too elegant. But no matter what, a woman could not ask for too much.
This was incredible.
To think that this woman had such an ability, even though she was a true person.
Just by looking at the words written on it, Master Zeng immediately felt that such an essay, even if it could not win the lead representative, it was more than enough to be on the list.
With this reading, he immediately praised, "Not bad, not bad at all. The literary talent is indeed good."
Bai He slightly raised the corner of her mouth and said: "That's true, if you don't have some ability, how would you dare to make a fool of yourself here?" Besides, these paper and brushes would also want money. She had made a bet with the shopkeeper, wouldn't it be too embarrassing if she lost?
Thinking of this, she immediately felt that her earlier attention was not bad and flaunted herself again. She didn't even spend money and was immediately happy.
The shopkeeper hadn't expected her to have such literary talent, but he didn't feel the slightest bit bad for those brushes and paper.
"Master Zeng, this girl's literary talent is not bad, right?" The shopkeeper had been reading from the side from the very beginning, so he clearly saw how amazing this article was.
The Master Zeng nodded his head and said: "This essay is not bad, adding on to the fact that you have reasonable grounds for your opinion, it's just that you are being too straightforward, you are lacking in talent."
Hearing his comment, Bai He was also very unhappy. This guy was really demanding, but who cares.
"And his article." Bai He took Bai Shi's article and handed it over to Master Zeng.
Master Zeng was originally satisfied with her article, but now that he brought another one, he had less expectations. After all, not everyone could truly write an article well.
Since Bai He was able to finish writing it, it must be because of some kind of luck.
It doesn't make sense that everyone who does business is a man of exceptional talent.
However, he was completely wrong. When he read the first sentence, his eyes widened.
Reading this page, his eyes were about to pop out.
"Did you really write this?" Master Zeng looked at Bai Shi and asked seriously.
Bai Shi did not reply. Instead, it was the people at the side who began to speak, and said: "They did indeed write it themselves. The question was also just revealed a moment ago. " No one would doubt that they would cheat. Such an amazing article would cost a lot of money to spend.
They didn't need to spend that much money to become an official.
The appearance of such a thought surprised everyone even more. What kind of family could produce such a talent?
Moreover, these two people didn't even know what kind of literary talent they had.
Bai He saw that the people around him were all exclaiming in surprise, and was very satisfied. She said: "All of you, give way, we have finished writing this article, I hope that the shopkeeper can keep his promise, and not take any of our paper and brush money."
Hearing that, Master Zeng immediately said: "What paper and pen money are you guys talking about? If you guys want to become my disciples, not to mention paper and brush, if you guys need money, I would even help you."
He naturally cherished geniuses. How could such a literary talent be able to sell vegetables? This was simply a waste.
Hearing his words, Bai He became a little pleased, and said: "Then there's no need, we can definitely earn money to support ourselves, Master Zeng should just take care of his own money."
"Since the article is finished, head storekeeper, we'll take our leave first." Bai He had also achieved her goal so she naturally did not want to stay any longer.
When the shopkeeper saw them leave so easily, he was completely puzzled. Why did they spend so much effort to write this article? He could have taken these kinds of exams.
"Miss Bai He." In the end, someone recognized him.
When Bai He saw that it was the scholar who bought food from her, she immediately waved at her with a very good attitude.
The scholar immediately nodded. "Not bad."
When the Master Zeng saw that they actually knew each other, he asked, "For such literary talent of yours, why didn't you take the examination?" He intentionally looked at Bai Shi because his literary talent was really too outstanding. If Bai He's essay was considered surprising, then Bai Shi's essay was breathtaking.
How could such a literary talent be wasted?
Bai He said very straightforwardly, "Because we are not interested in becoming Elementary Scholars, we are only interested in selling things."
The moment the words left his mouth, it immediately caused an uproar. It was said that all high and low quality books were the best, with Bai He's words, it immediately aroused their suspicions.
Could reading be worse than selling things?
However, with the literary talents of these two here, no one would be able to doubt them.
However, there was still someone who said unhappily, "It's just an essay, why are you so proud of it? I can write a bunch of articles at your level. "
Bai He was displeased when she heard him say that. Her essay was just a matter of coping with the situation, but it was still alright. But Bai Shi's article was different, she had personally witnessed it and wrote it well, now that she understood why this man dared to slander her, she was even more unhappy.
She then looked at the scholar and said, "Then why don't you write a bunch and have a look? We can wait for your article. "
Upon hearing this, the scholar's face instantly turned red. He still said, "But a scholar is naturally noble. How can you slander a scholar like that?"
Hearing his words, Bai He laughed and said: "A noble scholar? I can't tell, but how many people here aren't living off their family's money? The younger ones are fine, but what about the rest of you? You are already at the age to support your family, yet you are still relying on your parents?
Bai He's eyes landed on the Bai Jingxuan who was watching from afar. That's right, she was the person that she was looking at.
Bai Jingxuan stood a little distance away, of course he did not know what Bai He had said, but he was surprised to see Bai He standing there.
"Miss, although your literary talent is not bad, it would be a waste if you don't use it." A scholar stood up and said.
On the other hand, Bai He was very happy to hear these words, and said, "I do not waste my time knowing, since I can read and write accounts everyday is not bad."
"Then why have you two come here to write this article?" Master Zeng said the real problem.
Bai He looked at the person at her side, and said seriously: "I am only here for the name of the businessman. "No one says that business people are weaker than you scholars. After all, I can write articles and do business, but you can only read."
This was what made her stronger than them.
Bai Shi looked at Bai He in shock, as if he was curious why he had said those words.
After she left, she did not forget to leave behind a single sentence. "There are no such things as noble or lowly. There is only what you try to do."
Although she didn't make it too clear today, this matter would definitely spread out in the future.
The result she wanted was also achieved.
Bai Shi followed behind Bai He and walked slowly.
Bai He suddenly turned her head to look at Bai Shi, and asked: "Bai Shi, I forgot to ask you. Do you want to do business? " Previously when she was doing business, it was just some of her thoughts. But he really didn't know what Bai Shi was thinking.
Now, she really wanted to ask clear questions. What exactly was Bai Shi thinking?
Was he really planning on doing business with me, or was he just thinking about something else?
Bai Shi heard her question, shook his head, and said: "Whatever you do, I will do."
