The king of the house is in trouble.

"Xue'er, although Lin Zixuan is a bad person and has done some bad things, he is very talented in writing. I'm afraid I can't pass the imperial examination and ask the emperor to marry you!" The male protagonist held her hand and looked at the ninth princess with a sad face.

When the ninth princess heard this, she was so upset that she hurriedly replied, "Yuankai, don't worry, I have a way to deal with it."

Although she didn't like Lin Zixuan's dominance over the male protagonist before, she also admired his literary talent and knowledge at such a young age, and she also wanted to recommend him to her sixth brother and work for him.

After the male protagonist's rumors, the ninth princess' impression of him became much worse, so she gave up the idea of ​​recommending him.

After hearing what the male protagonist said, he planned the cheating case and helped the male protagonist get the first place in the joint examination.

The male protagonist became the champion as he wished, and with the help of the Ninth Princess, he became the champion of the palace examination.

The Sixth Prince also saw his talent and recruited him as his staff.

With the help of the male protagonist, the Sixth Prince successfully defeated the Crown Prince and many princes and inherited the throne.

The love story between the male protagonist and the Ninth Princess was sung and praised.

The original body was just a small male supporting role. After his death, only his family believed that he would not do such a thing. But it was useless, and people's words were light.

Not to mention that after his death, his family members died one by one due to various accidents.

After sorting out the plot and the original body's memory, Lin Zixuan found that he was only thirteen years old and was still a scholar.

According to the original process, he participated in the provincial examination at the age of eighteen and passed the examination.

He could only go to the capital to participate in the joint examination at the age of nineteen.

"System, what is the mission this time?"

"Ding, this mission is to avenge the hero and heroine, let them die a miserable death, and protect my parents from harm. It would be best if you can pass the imperial examination, but I won't force it." The system responded.

"This hero is really black-hearted. Just because he saved his face and blocked his way, he designed the heroine to kill her original body." The system was very indignant.

"Then why did he expose the thief in the street? Do good things? The hero is not like this kind of person!"

The system asked in confusion.

"The hero and the heroine are not good people. Don't think too much. I'm going to rest."

After saying this in his heart, Lin Zixuan closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next day, Lin Zixuan got up early and went to the nearby Zhenbaozhai.

The shopkeeper of Zhenbaozhai saw Lin Zixuan coming in and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, please look around. If you need anything, just tell me!"

I rarely come to Zhenbaozhai. After all, the things in Zhenbaozhai are not cheap, which is not a luxury for ordinary farmers.

But who hasn't heard of the name of this genius scholar? He passed the examination for a scholar at the age of nine and is only thirteen now.

I also heard that he has studied well and it won't take long for him to pass the examination for a juren.

"It's better to have a better attitude, so that you can't make mistakes."

The shopkeeper thought to himself.

Lin Zixuan handed over an item the size of a baby's fist wrapped in linen, put it on the tray, and said: "Shopkeeper, take a look and give me an estimate! If it's suitable, I will sell it to Zhenbaozhai."

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and unfolded the linen without caring, and saw a pure, transparent glass ball, which emitted a dazzling light under the sunlight.

"This... is this... colored glass?"

The shopkeeper gently stroked the colored glass ball with his hand, his mouth trembling a little.

The shopkeeper's eyes were wide open, and he was reluctant to blink, fearing that the treasure would disappear from his sight in the next second.

Seeing that the shopkeeper had no time to deal with him for the time being, Lin Zixuan did not urge him, but sat at the reception table and drank the tea on the table.

After admiring it for a while, the shopkeeper said with unsatisfied interest: "There is not a trace of bubbles or impurities in it. Such flawless transparent colored glass is really rare."

"Mr. Lin, I'd like to ask, where did this colored glass ball come from?"

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, this is a few days ago when I met a few Western merchants in another place. I helped them a little, and they gave it to me as a thank you."

"That's good, that's good."

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the things were legitimate.

"I wonder how much silver Mr. Lin plans to sell it for?"

The shopkeeper asked tentatively.

Lin Zixuan looked at the shopkeeper and smiled, "Shopkeeper, you also know that this is a rare item and there is no shortage of buyers. How about this, you can make an offer. If it is suitable, I will sell it to you. If it is not suitable, I will go to other stores to have a look. How do you think?"

The shopkeeper looked a little embarrassed after hearing this. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mr. Lin, you see

How about five hundred taels of silver? "

Lin Zixuan remained silent, pretending to think.

He knew that colored glass was valuable in ancient times, but he didn't know how much silver it was worth, so he could only try it out based on his experience: "Shopkeeper, you also know that such treasures can make a lot of money if you sell them to the town's officials."

"If you don't worry about the long journey, transport it to the state capital or the capital, and send it to the auction, the price will only be higher. This colored glass is also a great gift for dignitaries."

Lin Zixuan looked at the shopkeeper's face and said, "How about one thousand taels of silver?"

The shopkeeper frowned and said, "Mr. Lin, the quality of this colored glass ball is indeed good, but I can only give 800 taels of silver at most. If it is more, the small shop can't afford it. "

Lin Zixuan knew that this was basically the limit of the shopkeeper, and he didn't think about selling it in other shops.

There are only a few shops in the town that sell treasures, and only this Zhenbaozhai is relatively honest and not as shady as other shops.

"If this one offers a suitable price, I'll sell it." Lin Zixuan thought.

After a while, Lin Zixuan said, "Then congratulations to the shopkeeper, I'll sell this treasure to you."

"Haha, thank you, Mr. Lin."

The shopkeeper said happily that he could make a lot of money with 800 taels, but it would use up most of the store's working capital.

The shopkeeper looked at Lin Zixuan, who was indifferent to the 800 taels of silver and looked very calm, and knew that the person in front of him would become a great man in the future.

"By the way, there are a few pieces of agate raw stones here, shopkeeper, what do you think? "

After saying that, Lin Zixuan took out another package and put it on the tray.

The shopkeeper slowly opened the package and saw five pieces of agate raw stones inside, one colorless and transparent, one red, one green, one purple and one purple-green.

The five agates were not big, but the stone shape was regular, so it was no problem to make plaques, pendants and beads. In particular, the quality was good, almost without lines or cracks, and the color was very rich, especially the green, purple and purple-green agates. It was the first time he had seen them. He thought they were treasures that only dignitaries could use.

"Are these also given to Mr. Lin by Western merchants?"

The shopkeeper asked cautiously.

"Of course, we don't have such rare things here, but there are only these agates and a small glass ball. "

Lin Zixuan looked calm, and the things he said were just like a few ordinary stones.

The shopkeeper was ashamed, and he would not be able to remain calm if it were him.

At the same time, he was also secretly thankful that he was not cheated, otherwise he would not be able to see the agate gem behind.
