Qin Dewei left the city from Sanshan Gate and walked west along the avenue. After walking a few steps, he passed by the scenic spot on the south bank of Mochou Lake. He could also see the new Guogong Building hidden in the trees from a distance. There were more tourists than in the previous few days.
some.
But Qin Dewei is not revisiting his old hometown today. The glory of the past is in the past. The most important thing now is to look forward (money).
The money shop is indeed very promising, but he has nothing but his brains, and Feng Xiancheng has nothing but his official position, so he also needs a partner who is responsible for the specific operations.
Qin Dewei kept walking and continued westward. Not long after he reached the west side of Mochou Lake, he turned into a fork in the road. When he entered his sight, he saw a paddy field and dozens of households.
This is not surprising. There are two city walls outside Nanjing City. Inside the Thirteen Gates of the inner city is a bustling metropolis, but there is a lot of pastoral scenery between the inner and outer city walls. Continuing to the west and north, cross the east gate of the river or
Longjiang Pass is the mighty river.
Of course, Qin Dewei didn't come here to appreciate the pastoral scenery. He asked around and searched, and finally found his destination in a bamboo forest.
It is made of blue bricks and black tiles, the small door is tightly closed, and there are three big words "Zhenyuan Guan" written on it. There are two or three sedan chairs parked outside the door.
Qin Dewei came forward and knocked on the door. After waiting for a while, a round-faced maid opened the door from the inside and said to Qin Dewei: "No men are allowed to enter the place where women practice."
If you look at the sedan outside the door, you will know that this kind of place is probably a contemporary ladies' club. Ladies and ladies come to visit and have a party. If this kind of scene appears in this novel, it usually indicates that something is going to happen.
Of course, Qin Dewei was not interested in going in, so he said to the round-faced maid: "Excuse me, I'm just here to look for someone! Is there a lady Gu staying here temporarily? Please pass on the news that Qin Dewei is visiting. If you have time, I will come out and talk."
The round-faced maid closed the door and went in to report. Not long after, she reappeared and replied to Qin Dewei: "Ms. Gu said that she has gained some enlightenment recently and wants to stay outside, quietly recite Huang Ting, cultivate her mind and nature, and not see outsiders.
Got it!"
Qin Dewei: "???"
When we met by the lake a few days ago, wasn't Mrs. Gu still fine? Why did she start pretending to be a monk after not seeing each other for a few days? It doesn't matter that Mrs. Gu is a monk, but where else can Qin Dewei find someone to be friends with?
Rich man?
After the round-faced maid finished delivering the message, she was about to close the door again. Qin Dewei quickly stopped her and shouted: "Wait a minute! I still have something to do. Madam Gu still owes me eight taels of silver!"
The round-faced little maid was doubtful and went in to deliver the message again. After opening the door again, she threw two small silver ingots directly to Qin Dewei, "Ms. Gu said, these are ten taels, there is no need to look for them!"
Qin Dewei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What he was planning was really only 12 or 8 taels! This small amount of money was only enough to buy back one-tenth of a child!
The round-faced maid was already impatient. Just as she was about to close the door, she was stopped by Qin Dewei: "I have something else to do! I want to borrow money from Madam Gu!"
"Bah! Do you really have something to do, or are you just here to pester someone?" the round-faced maid couldn't help but spit.
Qin Dewei said: "If you find it troublesome, please ask Mrs. Gu to come out and talk to me in person."
"If Mrs. Gu refuses to pay attention to you, I will never come out again!" The round-faced maid sent the message again angrily.
Then not long after, the small door opened again, and the round-faced maid was still angry. "Ms. Gu sent a message saying that Wang Lianqing is both talented and beautiful, and has a rich pocket. If you want to borrow money, you can go to her! Then Wang Lianqing has saved up.
It must be more than a hundred taels, don’t be fooled by her words.”
How can one attain attainment by dying? Only by being sincere. Although a woman is foolish, she is willing to study the Tao with all her heart..."
Very good, this is a Taoist poem, which roughly means praying for newcomers to learn Taoism. Mrs. Gu understands it very clearly.
So the guy surnamed Qin and the guy surnamed Wang wrote a few hundred words of "Love in Love", and there were probably many shameless poems in private; and this was just this piece of stuff for myself?
Qin Dewei outside the gate of Zhenyuan Temple was very pleased with himself. It didn't matter if he studied Taoism or practiced Taoism. Just do what he likes!
For example, people today believe in Buddhism. In the next few decades, won’t ministers rush to write Qing Ci and offer tributes to seek the favor of the saints? So just follow the example!
The round-faced little maid asked for instructions: "How should I reply?"
Mrs. Gu said unceremoniously: "Let him go! Don't disturb my cultivation of immortality!"
