Chapter 118 Playing Mahjong
Watanabe Malu was studying hard with the Analects of Confucius in his arms: "Zi Zhang said: When a scholar sees danger, he thinks of righteousness, sacrifices, respects, and sorrows, and sorrows, and it is enough..."
"What is Watanabe doing?" Pei Shaoqing asked several other people.
The Ni Nie Master shook his head and said, "Isn't this about to be tried by the Ministry of Rites?"
Fan Wenxiong said with a shout: "San Watanabe wants to participate in the Ministry of Rites exam, and it is the most difficult Jinshi exam."
"As he is like a bear, he actually dares to participate in the Ministry of Rites for the Jinshi exam." Di Guangzhao said disdainfully, "It's really an ignorant person who is fearless. Wouldn't he hear the thirty-year-old Ming Sutra and the fifty-year-old Jinshi?"
Facing the blows from his classmates, Maro Watanabe didn't care at all.
Pei Shaoqing patted Maro Watanabe on the shoulder and said, "Come on Watanabe, I'm optimistic about you."
"Oh." Watanabe Maro subconsciously bowed to Pei Shaoqing, "Aligado."
Pei Shaoqing pulled over a desk in front, and the two were put together into a square table, and then he poured the mahjong plaques in the leather bag on the table.
Di Guangzhao and the other two were stunned when they saw it.
Only Watanabe Maro is still studying hard.
Pei Shaoqing waved at Di Guangzhao and the other two and said:
"Don't stand there, come and play mahjong quickly."
Although it is an order to start a gambling process, there must be a process.
We must first let our classmates at Hongwenguan appreciate the charm of mahjong.
Di Guangzhao and the others are undoubtedly the best tool people.
"Brother, what is this?" Di Guangzhao and the other two sat down around the table and asked curiously. Maru Watanabe, who was studying the Analects of Confucius next to him, couldn't help but look at him curiously.
"This is called mahjong." Pei Shaoqing said with a smile, "It is a kind of fighting scene."
"Fighting scene?" Di Guangzhao said with his eyes shining, "Brother, how do you play it?"
"Get a simple one first." Pei Shaoqing then gave the three of them a slap and pushing Hu down.
Then, while teaching Di Guangzhao and the other three to build cards, he said, "First, I will give you 100 yuan a cannon, and each company will give you 200 yuan a lever. The four cards will not be opened, but as long as the cards are stuck, it will be doubled."
When Fan Wenxiong heard this, his face changed slightly and said, "How about I better forget it?"
"No?" Pei Shaoqing said, "After all, you are the little prince of Linyi Kingdom. You won't be able to even afford a cheap cannon worth 100 yuan, right?"
Fan Wenxiong's face showed embarrassment.
His current situation is really bad.
Linyi was occupied by the powerful minister Mokmandoga,
The Tang Dynasty was also reluctant to send troops to help him restore the country.
After years of wandering, the property around you is exhausted.
It seems that even the chefs of the Imperial College can't afford it.
Where can I still have extra money to support him in a play?
"I really don't have money?" Pei Shaoqing said, "That's okay, I can lend you."
"I'd better not borrow it." Fan Wenxiong shook his head, "I can't pay it back even if I borrow it."
"What are you afraid of if you don't want to?" Pei Shaoqing said, "You can use the things as collateral."
"Brother Pei, why bother to make fun of me?" Fan Wenxiong smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said, "I miss me a prince who is in trouble. I have no body, so what else can I use to mortgage it."
"Brother Fan is so pretentious." Pei Shaoqing said, "No matter how small Linyi Country is, it is still a country. As the legal crown prince of Linyi Country, how could you not have collateral?"
Fan Wenxiong was stunned when he heard this: "What does Brother Pei mean?"
Pei Shaoqing smiled and said, "I mean, you can use the taxes from Linyi Kingdom as collateral. Of course, if you think the taxes are not suitable, you can also use the specialties from Linyi Kingdom as a pretentious payment, such as Chameng rice."
"But, the problem is..." Fan Wen said reluctantly, "Linyi Kingdom has been occupied by Mahamandoga. I have no right to deal with the taxes of Linyi Kingdom, and I can't produce a grain of rice in Champa."
"I won't worry about this matter, Brother Fan." Pei Shaoqing said with a smile.
Fan Wenxiong became more and more puzzled and said, "What does Brother Pei mean?"
Now even the Ni Nishi Master pricked up his ears, but he held back and didn't ask.
Pei Shaoqing smiled slightly and said, "I mean, since our guards dare to lend you money, there is a way to get the collateral you promised."
"How is this possible?" Fan Wenxiong said.
Pei Shaoqing smiled and said, "I just said that I won't worry about Brother Fan."
Fan Wenxiong said with a heartbeat: "So, can I really borrow from Brother Pei?"
The Ni Nie Master next to him also had a slightly moving expression, but his scheming was deeper than Fan Wenxiong and he did not show any expression.
Pei Shaoqing smiled and looked at Ni Nie Master, and then said to Fan Wenxiong: "It's really OK! Brother Fan just borrowed money from me, and he couldn't get it out at a time, but one or two hundred coins is fine."
"Okay." Fan Wenxiong slapped his thigh and said, "Borrow one hundred coins first!"
"Yes." Pei Shaoqing said, "I wonder what mortgage Brother Fan takes?"
Fan Wenxiong asked tentatively: "How about using Chameng rice to defeat?"
"Yes." Pei Shaoqing said, "But since it is mortgage, it must be far lower than the market price. Brother Fan should be able to understand this, right?"
"Of course." Fan Wenxiong nodded repeatedly.
For Fan Wenxiong, as long as he can mortgage, he will not be afraid of the price.
Pei Shaoqing said: "In a good harvest, a dou of rice is fifty cents, and a bucket of rice in the city can get about six dou of rice, which is three hundred cents. I will give you a price of 150 cents. How about it?"
"The price is fair." Fan Wenxiong said repeatedly.
"Then let's sign a loan document first." Pei Shaoqing finished speaking, and asked Di Guangzhao to get paper, pen and ink.
Paper is the roughest jute paper, but it can also be used. Pei Shaoqing asked Di Guangzhao to write and draft a document:
I borrowed 150 guan for Kaiyuan Tongbao by Fan Wenxiong, the prince of Linyi, and agreed to pay for one thousand hu of rice in Chameng. If it cannot be returned within the deadline, I will pay one thousand hu of rice in Chameng.
The second year of Kaiyao, the 22nd day of the first lunar month.
The person who has a letter of the name: Fan Wenxiong (hand seal).
After collecting the document, Pei Shaoqing said to Qingxuan again: "Qingxuan, get money to Brother Fan quickly."
Qingxuan curled his lips, took out a ten-two piece of horse hoof gold from the leather bag, and then took five large sums of money.
Fan Wenxiong took the money and was still a little unbelievable. He just signed a meaningless document and exchanged it for 150 knots. Pei Shaoqing is afraid that he is not a fool?
The Ni Nie Master was also a little stunned.
Pei Shaoqing patted Fan Wenxiong on the shoulder and said, "Brother Fan, our guard and capture department is still very limited at the moment, so there are not many people who can lend you. When our guard and capture department becomes strong in the future, let alone money, you can borrow even soldiers! I dare not say that there are more, it is absolutely no problem for the guard and capture department to be 100,000,000 guard and capture department."
"Borrow troops?" Fan Wenxiong said, "Brother Pei, can you still borrow troops?"
Hearing this, the Ni Nishi Master, who had not spoken, was also heartbroken.
