Chapter 109: Academy Support
Zhu Lele is still instigating.
The people who originally wanted to buy something to support the cause suddenly became hesitant.
If the money does not reach the victims, wouldn’t it be a waste of money?
Zhu Lele felt very proud when he saw this.
Make some noise!
It’s a mess!
The more chaotic it is, the happier she is!
At first, she was just instigated by Wen Ruyue and wanted to teach Wen Yan and Meng Chifei a lesson and damage the reputation of "Yidian Mo".
It was them who made him lose face in Miaobizhai before.
He was also taken to the palace by his mother to plead guilty.
Now, they want to cheat me of my money. This is simply unforgivable!
"I believe it!"
At this moment, a calm female voice suddenly sounded.
Xiao Yinghan, who had been silent all the time, walked towards Meng Chifei.
She took a brocade box from the maid.
He opened it in front of everyone and took out a scroll.
She said, "My grandfather said that the Meng family's fundraising for disaster relief was a charitable act, so he specially took out this immortal painting and put it up for auction at your store, and donated all the proceeds to Jinyang Prefecture."
She ordered someone to open the scroll.
The pictures of the twenty-four goddesses were presented to everyone one by one.
The goddess's clothing in the painting is surprisingly similar to today's clothing style.
Everyone marveled at the beauty of the Twenty-Four Goddesses Picture.
He looked at Xiao Yinghan in surprise again. Wasn't she in the same group with Zhu Lele and Third Miss Jiang?
Moreover, it was rumored that she and Meng Chifei were rivals, so how come they were suddenly on the same side?
Moreover, this painting of twenty-four goddesses was created by a master in the previous life and is of great value.
Xiao Yinghan nodded to Zhu Lele and Miss Jiang San and said, "Miss Zhu, Miss Jiang, what a coincidence, we meet here." It turned out that the two people who were jumping around were not of the same kind as Xiao Yinghan at all.
When the two of them jumped out from behind Xiao Yinghan just now, everyone thought it was Xiao Yinghan who ordered them to do so.
It turns out that these two people wanted to take advantage of the Xiao family's power!
Everyone looked at Zhu and Jiang with strange eyes.
Meng Chifei also noticed the change in atmosphere and took the opportunity to say, "In the next three days, all the operating profits of our store and the proceeds from the auction will be donated to Jinyang Prefecture for disaster relief.
If you don't believe me, we can make a detailed account book, record all income and expenditure, update it once a month, and hang it in the store for everyone to supervise until the money is used up."
Zhu Lele still didn't give up, but he didn't want to show up again, so he gave his follower a wink.
Although the attendant was reluctant, he didn't dare to go against Zhu Lele's wishes, so he forced himself to say, "That's a nice thing to say. Who knows if you will do anything when keeping the accounts."
Miss Jiang San agreed, "Yes, as time goes by, everyone will gradually forget about this matter. It's still your opinion that counts."
"Wutong Academy is willing to guarantee them!"
Just then, a male voice suddenly sounded outside the shop.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a group of Confucian scholars in blue robes standing outside the shop.
"They are wearing the student uniforms of Wutong Academy. They are students of Wutong Academy." Someone shouted.
"Oh my god, it's just a calligraphy and painting shop opening, why are there people from Wutong Academy? Could it be that they are here to support them?"
"Anyone who attends Wutong Academy is considered one of the best in terms of character, virtue, and talent. With their guarantee, Yidianmo will definitely not misuse the disaster relief funds."
"That's right! This shop shouldn't do business with scholars. If they dare to mess around, as long as Wutong Academy says so, no scholar in the world will dare to set foot in their shop."
"With Wutong Academy as a guarantor, I believe they will spend the disaster relief funds wisely."
"I believe it too."
"I believe it too..."
Customers in the store expressed their opinions one after another.
With the endorsement of Wutong Academy, everyone's doubts about "Yidian Mo" were completely dispelled, and they even trusted it immensely.
Zhu Lele was so angry that his teeth were almost broken.
The sour scholar from Wutong Academy actually came to disrupt the situation, so the 15,000 taels must be spent!
Before she even got home, she felt a dull pain in her knee.
She glared at the scholars fiercely and memorized their appearance in her mind.
In the future, she will make them pay the price one by one.
"Look at the scholar in the lead, he's so handsome!" a female voice said in the crowd.
Only then did everyone turn their attention to the leader's appearance.
The man looked at it and sneered.
Why does a scholar not study hard instead of having a good-looking face to please others?
The woman's heart was pounding as she watched.
I wonder if such a handsome scholar is married.
However, the man who became the focus of everyone walked up to Wen Yan and Meng Chifei without looking away.
He first smiled gently at Wen Yan.
Then he handed the box in his hand to Meng Chifei: "There are five rare books in it that are treasured by Wutong Academy."
If this person is not Ying Zhilin, then who else could it be?
Ying Zhilin took out another box and said, "Here are two pieces of calligraphy, both written by Ji Shanzhang."
“Also, this box contains the study notes of students who have already entered the government.
The headmaster said that all the items will be sold in your store, and all the proceeds will be donated to the disaster victims in Jinyang Prefecture as a token of the gratitude of all Wutong Academy members.
Meng Chifei took them one by one.
Especially the last box, which is as long as an adult's arm.
It takes two college students to move it.
Meng Chifei picked it up easily and put it in the corner.
Although she doesn't like reading, she knows how precious these reading notes are.
That is a precious treasure that can be passed down from generation to generation by a family of scholars.
Many people at the scene were interested. Those who had scholars at home or were studying themselves wanted to buy a few copies, which would definitely be of great benefit to their studies.
Everyone asked about the price.
Some even said proudly, "I want this whole box of books, Shopkeeper Meng, just name your price."
Ying Zhilin looked at Wen Yan intently and asked, "Are you okay? Were you hurt by that fierce argument just now?"
"No." Wen Yan shook her head. "Why are you here? And you brought so many treasures with you."
Ying Zhilin's eyes wandered elsewhere: "When the headmaster heard about the disaster relief, he prepared these things and asked me to deliver them."
Wen Yan: "Mr. Ji is such a good man."
Ying Zhilin coughed lightly a few times.
Ji Shanchang, who was given the good guy card, sneezed in his sleep.
In his dream, he rubbed his nose and muttered, "Unfortunate for our master, unfortunate for our master! I am an unfilial disciple who has married a wife and forgotten my master."
Just because of these few days, Ying Zhilin not only used his name to ask his senior brothers who had entered the officialdom for their reading notes, but also took out several rare books from the academy.
Finally, I asked him to write several words...
The more Ji Shanchang thought about it, the sadder he became, and he even started crying in his sleep.
Let’s get back to the store.
Wen Yan was talking to Ying Zhilin.
Wen Yan looked around and saw an unexpected person at the door of the store.
The big money man is here!
