Face is not important sometimes. At least in Xu Qian's eyes, he doesn't pay much attention to face. His origin means that he has little to do with face. No matter how hard he tries, his face will only increase to a certain extent.
.
But the problem is that things have already been agreed to. Xu Qian originally thought that these so-called celebrities would reluctantly come over because they are all scholars from the same family, from the same hometown, or even from the same year, so that he can do business. But who knows?
Not only did these people not come, but they seemed to have a tacit understanding and made it clear that they wanted to see his jokes.
Xu Qian had scolded these people a hundred and eight times in his heart. But... he had to bring himself back to reality, because there was a girl sitting next to her who was looking at her with resentment, disdain, sneer, and anger.
Hold him.
It feels very uncomfortable to be looked down upon by others.
Especially by a girl of similar age to him. Although Xu Qian is young, he has been born in two generations. He thinks that he is mentally old enough to be someone else's uncle. With this sense of substitution, Xu Qian can't wait to find a place of his own.
Drill in.
"Please don't look at me with such an expression, please?" Xu Qian finally couldn't bear it anymore and begged with a kind of resentment unique to a sour scholar.
Hongxiu's big eyes just blinked, this time with a very cute and innocent expression.
Xu Qian wished he could take out a knife and hand it to her, raise his head and say, "Kill me." Because of this cute and innocent look, the profound meaning exuded made Xu Qian even more embarrassed and angry.
"I originally thought you were a scholar, and I heard that you did very well in the exams and did well in your articles. You must have frequent contacts with celebrities here and have a lot of connections. That's why I entrusted you with this important task." Hong Xiu.
He breathed a sigh of relief, looking like he was meeting someone unkindly, and then said: "Who knew you were so shameless, inviting so many people, but no one came, ugh... I really misjudged you.
."
Xu Qian said angrily: "Do you think provoking the general's tactics will work? I won't accept this trick."
Hongxiu held her pink fist and used anger to fight against anger: "What's the use of irritating you? No one is willing to pay attention to you. If I irritate you, will anyone come?"
"Holy shit, this is an upgraded version of Jijiang!" Xu Qian burst into tears, but knowing that Hong Xiu was a Jijiang, Xu Qian still turned his resentment into anger.
I never provoke these bastards. I invite them to a drink and they just refuse. But they don’t refuse, but they let me go one by one. I, Xu Qian, am so kind and so easy to bully?
Okay, you forced me to do this.
Xu Qian smiled coldly, showing a bit of cruelty, and said to Hongxiu: "Okay, although I know you are a fierce general, I would rather fall into your trap. Just wait, they will definitely come, I guarantee that they will come within an hour.
Everyone will gather here."
Hongxiu saw Xu Qian's expression was terrifying and said, "Smelly scholar, please don't act recklessly. You must pay with your life for killing someone."
Hong Xiu's thinking sometimes jumped so much that Xu Qian couldn't keep up with her rhythm, and said angrily: "Where did I say I want to kill people? I am a scholar, can I kill people?" He was silent for a moment and said: "Even if
Killing people should be done with the heart in mind, using the pen as a knife and the lips as a sword. Only ordinary people can splatter blood with five steps and still think they are happy."
Hong Xiu muttered in a low voice: "It's just that the scholar talks but doesn't do anything. Anyway, I don't care. Since you and I have an appointment, you have accepted my benefits. I must see Xie Zhao today."
Xu Qian narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "This is not a problem, but can you ask someone to invite the shopkeeper of the nearby Fuji Casino to come over."
Hongxiu said resentfully: "I didn't come with my entourage. Where can I go to give instructions?"
Xu Qian glared at her and said, "You think I don't know? I'm afraid your people are already everywhere in this restaurant."
Hongxiu was speechless: "You can see this?"
Xu Qian suddenly became lively again, stretched out and said: "They are not actors after all, acting is too business."
Hongxiu had no choice but to stretch out her hand and clap her hands gently. Within a moment, several people dressed as waiters solemnly pushed the door open, prostrated themselves on the ground, and waited silently for instructions.
Hongxiu appeared in front of them with an innate nobility, this kind of surface kindness, but the kind of unattainableness that showed no trace was enough to suffocate people, but this kind of oppression was useless to Xu Qian, he sat
After walking for such a long time, I felt a little tired. I thought I had something to do next, so I sat quietly to cultivate my body and mind.

Fuji Gambling House is also quite famous in Hangzhou. No matter where a gambling house is opened, there is always something behind it. Fuji Gambling House is particularly lively today because a new gambling game has been opened.
It is said that Xu Qian, a crazy student who has become famous recently, is facing six celebrities from Hangzhou today at Piaoxiang Tower. These six celebrities are all somewhat famous people in Hangzhou. It is also said that Xu Qian has already arrived at Piaoxiang Tower, but the invitation
No one has appeared so far, and some people have begun to suspect that these six talented people who have always been somewhat famous may not dare to go.
The gambling game offered by Fuji Gambling House was that these talented people sat and discussed. If Xu Qian won, they would lose four points. If the talented people did not dare to challenge or lost, they would lose seven points.
With a gambling game, this gambling house naturally has to work hard to publicize it. The owner of the gambling house has bribed dozens of idle people to publicize the matter. This kind of thing is both rare and eye-catching. Under the operation of the gambling house owner,
Within half an hour, the news spread throughout Hangzhou.
In a teahouse by the West Lake in Hangzhou City, a few scholars on the second floor inevitably heard the news from the boys.
Snapped……
Someone closed the folding fan fiercely and couldn't help cursing: "Who is Xu Qian? He is just a man who is looking for fame and reputation. This son of a lowly slave is really worse than a dog. He actually wants me to fight with him."
Discussing the Tao? Is he worthy?"
The speaker was Su Tong, a small celebrity in Hangzhou. Su Tong was also invited by Xu Qian. Xu Qian originally gave him an invitation, but he didn't even look at it. He just sneered and asked someone to throw the invitation away.
After going out, in his eyes, Xu Qian was indeed talented and learned, but he, Su Tong, was from an aristocratic family. How could he look down on such a child from a poor family? In addition, Xu Qian was in the limelight, which made Su Tong's heart even more
He was jealous, and several of his friends had suffered losses from Xu Qian, and they were even more unwilling to deal with Xu Qian.
Originally, he only wanted to watch a joke and wanted to see Xu Qian lose face. Who would have thought that Xu Qian would actually make such a fuss.
In fact, these invited people have been gathering here for a long time, just waiting for Xu Qian to make a joke. As soon as the voice in Suzhou fell, the talented scholar Wang Fang who was also invited said: "He is just trying to please others, so don't pay attention to him."
"Just ignoring him would make people think that we are afraid of him. Wouldn't it just help this guy?"
Several people were chattering endlessly, but Yang Tongzhi and Xie Zhao, who were sitting on the side, did not speak. Yang Tongzhi and Xie Zhao each sat on their chairs and just watched the other five people arguing indifferently.
Finally, the old celebrity Zhang Tang said: "He doesn't know what is good or bad, so what if we just go and meet him? Xu Qian was born as a lowly servant. His writing is not as good as Tong Zhi's, his calligraphy and painting are not my rival, and his poetry may not be as good as Xie's."
Brother, he speaks arrogant words and wants to become famous, but his wish will never be fulfilled."
"That's right. Originally, I just wanted to see his joke. Now that he dares to challenge me, let's give him a good look." The speaker glanced at Yang Tongzhi again and said: "Brother Yang, your order
The teacher was insulted by this little thief a few days ago, now is the time to teach him a lesson, Brother Yang, please come and give him a slap on the head."
Yang Tongzhi shook the paper fan in his hand, pondered for a moment, and said: "Since the other party is willing to provoke, he may not have any backlash, but he must be careful." He then sighed again and said: "It's just that the master was angry with him.
"Of course he is scheming. If I, a student, don't ask for some justice, wouldn't I be a coward? Come on, let me take the lead." He looked at Xie Zhao and said, "Brother Xie, what do you think?"
Xie Zhao smiled faintly and said: "I will go and meet such a madman for a while. Since he doesn't know how to praise, then go and see how capable he is."
