Magic Love Ring

Chapter 2073

The next day, it was the day of releasing the list.

Song Yan did not show any uneasiness or uneasiness, but waited patiently.

Near eleven o'clock.

Finally, the congratulator came. He won, not the first, but the second.

But now, he can't be called a Jinshi. He thinks that only after passing the imperial examination can he have the status of a Jinshi.

Although it's only the second place.

But it is still a very important thing, so many people came to congratulate song Yan. Even in the evening of that day, he was summoned to the past to do his best.

The palace test will be held in seven days.

Don't give in the white paper, you can get a status of giving the Jinshi birth.

The first-class Jinshi will be selected by the invigilators and handed over to the emperor.

Hou Wenchang, the Marquis of Puyang, was an acute man. After being instructed by song Yan, on the day of releasing the list, he invited the other three idle marquis to the house for a banquet.

And the glasses that served them were all glasses.

These three Marquises, all of whom have great wealth, are very fond of such delicate glasses. They ask where the cups come from.

Hou Puyang didn't tell the truth, but boasted that he had spent a lot of money to get ten sets from overseas.

I heard that there are ten sets of glasses in the Houfu of Puyang.

All three Dukes have the cheek to buy one.

This cup is really beautiful. If it is used to entertain distinguished guests, it will definitely have face.

Finally, at Hou's unwillingness, the three Marquises took one set of cups respectively at a price of 32000 yuan.

Seeing off the three Marquises, Hou Wenchang couldn't help but shut up and laugh.

Three sets of cups brought him sixty-six thousand liang of profits. If we sell all ten sets of cups, we will not have more than two hundred thousand yuan of profits, which is more than the income of all industries of his Houfu in one year.

You should know that the property of his Houfu in a year is only one hundred twenty-three thousand Liang silver.

It's no wonder that song Yan's bookstore is just a small profit. If he can sell more than 100 sets a year, isn't he making millions of silver?

The three princes who bought the glasses were also showy people. On the second day when they bought them back, they invited a group of Lords from their homes to dinner.

When they found out that the cup was from Puyang mansion, the Lords killed Puyang mansion one after another and emptied the remaining seven sets of glasses.

Hou Wenchang, the Marquis of Puyang, made a huge profit of 220000 Liang, which almost didn't make him crazy.

And the lords who didn't buy the glasses didn't leave.

After Hou Wenchang promised again and again that the new wine cups would be delivered to their house in person, the lords were unwilling to go.

After sending off these lords, Hou Wenchang immediately ordered people to contact song Yan secretly, and also brought 80000 liang of silver.

Butler Hou waited until nine o'clock in the evening, and then came back from Song Yan.

But song Yan went to visit Cai Zixiao and told him that he had won the second place.

In fact, Cai Zixiao knows better than him, but this is an attitude.

At the sight of song Yan, Butler Hou could not help holding down his voice and said: "son of song, the wine glasses you provided are so good to sell. Now all ten sets of wine glasses have been sold. The meaning of the Marquis is to let the old slave get another fifty sets!"

"By the way, son song, this is the first ten sets of wine glass silver!" Butler Hou stuffed a stack of silver tickets to song Yan.

"Steward Hou comes in and talks!"

Half an hour later, Butler Hou went away in a carriage with a happy face and took 51 sets of wine glasses. He was even more amazed at Song Yan's explanation.

Hou Wenchang, who got the wine cup, immediately wanted to send it to the Lord's house, but the Butler stopped him and repeated song Yan's saying that he was too much.

Although Hou Wenchang was anxious, he did feel that song Yan was right, so he didn't rush to send someone to send out the wine cup.

Just then.

The housekeeper opened a wooden box, in which lay eight wine glasses, but there was a lifelike dragon wrapped around them.

"My God, this wine glass is just like a big treasure!"

"Hou ye, the son of song means that you can send this set of wine glasses to the emperor!" He is in charge of his family.

Smell words, Hou Wenchang but show a very reluctant color, this set of wine cup, even if the price is 100000 Liang, some people want it.

"Marquis, you are just idle now. If you have made a contribution, the emperor will give you an official post, which is more cost-effective than anything!" Housekeeper Hou reminds me again.

Hou Wenchang clapped his forehead and said happily, "housekeeper, you are so smart!"

The housekeeper said: "Hou ye, this is what Prince Song told the old slave to say. Once the Hou Ye has an official position, do those civil servants dare to look down on you?"

"It makes sense! Hurry to prepare. I will go to the palace and offer my treasure at once! " Hou Wenchang immediately said excitedly.Now in his early thirties, the emperor of Wei was in his prime. Unfortunately, he was addicted to wine, and his body had long been hollowed out.

Knowing that Hou Wenchang asked for an interview, Emperor Wei ordered people to invite him in.

"Lord Puyang, why do you come to see me?" Emperor Wei said in a casual voice.

"Your Majesty, I'm here to offer my treasure!"

Wen Yan, Emperor Wei's eyes fell on the brocade box in Hou Wenchang's arms and said in a deep voice, "take it up!"

Hou Wenchang quickly handed over the brocade box with both hands. Emperor Wei opened the brocade box and immediately eight delicate wine glasses with dragon patterns were presented to him.

Wei Di stretched out his hand and took a glass to enjoy it. He laughed and said, "OK, this crystal glass is so wonderful. OK, it's so good!" With that, Emperor Wei looked at Hou Wenchang and said with a smile, "Lord Puyang, I'm very happy with your gift. Let's say, what do you want to give me?"

Hou Wenchang said: "Your Majesty, I don't want anything. This wine cup is twined by a dragon. It's a creature. I want to know who is entitled to enjoy it except your majesty. So, I'm just offering flowers to Buddha. Therefore, I dare not make contributions!"

Hou Wenchang's words delighted emperor Wei Longyan. He said with a smile, "you're talking, but I'm not a mean person. I'm here to take a thousand liang of gold from the inner Treasury and give it to the Duke of Puyang!"

It's just a reward of gold and silver. Hou Puyang was disappointed. However, he still didn't show it. After all, there are still some in his city.

But on the second day.

The eunuch came to the mansion to make a proclamation, and granted Hou Wenchang the right capital of the capital camp.

Jingying is one of the most elite troops in the Wei state. There are 30000 soldiers in the whole army. Youdutong is second only to zuotou in the Jingying, and it's a military general with three grades. This time, Hou Wenchang has made great progress.

For this reason, Hou Wenchang held a banquet and invited Lord Yigan to the banquet. He also invited song Yan. However, he did not go, but he also sent a congratulatory gift. In the future, he will go the way of civil servants. Therefore, he should not have too much contact with military generals.

As for why he wanted to be an official, it was very simple. He wanted to help Cao Kui overthrow the state of Wei, and how he could gain the fortune if he didn't take part in the usurpation of the state himself.

And Hou Wenchang is a kind of person who has a strong will. The greater the official he is, the greater the harm he will do to the country.
