The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

A good piece of Huizhou ink is worth hundreds of taels. Google search reading

Something more ordinary.

An ingot and several silver coins.

It's simply not something ordinary people can afford.

Even if Hua Xiling knows how to grind ink, she has never touched high-quality Hui ink, so the ink she produces will inevitably be of inferior quality.

Of course, most people can't see the difference.

Bai Gui just made an excuse and sent Hua Xiling away.

He was quiet for a while.

Then he picked up the big pen of Langhao and started writing.

The ink falls on the paper like lacquer, the handwriting is flying, the pen sweeps through thousands of troops, and the force penetrates the back of the paper. At first glance, it is the handwriting of a famous artist.

"Watch new plays, but also old plays; watch new plays, and watch old plays."

"It's easy to get on stage, it's easy to get off stage, it's easy to get on stage, it's easy to get off stage."

A couplet was quickly written by Bai Gui.

Two hundred silver dollars... was not worth his troubles.

This couplet is enough!

"What a cursive hand! What a calligraphy!"

"Mr. Bai's calligraphy is thick and vigorous between the lines, elegant and refined, with a lingering aftertaste of Huaisu. The pen is round and powerful, unrestrained and smooth, and has the essence of Yan Lugong's cursive calligraphy..."

Boss Liu is knowledgeable.

It can be seen at a glance that Bai Gui's calligraphy skills are not shallow.

This is the finest calligraphy!

He originally thought that by borrowing Bai Gui's fame, young people would not be able to write any good calligraphy, but he did not expect that at this glance, he knew that the calligraphy was extraordinary. It could not be said to be the top among the literati in the world, but it was also first-rate.

"Boss Liu, you're welcome."

Bai Gui put the big wolf brush on the pen wash stand and said with a smile.

"but……"

Boss Liu looked at the written couplet and couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Bai can be considered an elegant person. Well, I won't blame Hua Xiling. I didn't expect that Mr. Bai is not only good at writing, but also good at writing, and he is also well-versed in human feelings." "

This couplet contains a lot of metaphors, but combined with what Hua Xingling did just now, the sentence "Go on stage well and get off stage well" is not just a warning to Hua Xiling not to take any shortcuts, but it is also a warning to Boss Liu that Hua Xiling should not take any shortcuts. Ling should not be too specific, so that she can "get off the stage well" and "come on stage well" in the future.

"Knowledge of worldly affairs is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is writing."

Bai Gui said.

"This is two hundred silver dollars for Mr. Bai to polish his writing."

"Please accept it, Mr. Bai."

Boss Liu clapped his hands, and a boy came out with a tray containing two tubes of silver coins wrapped in oil paper.

"Then I would be disrespectful."

Bai Gui accepted it happily.

Make money, don’t be embarrassed!

"In addition, Hua Xiling bumped into Mr. Bai just now. As the owner of the tea garden, I have to apologize."

Boss Liu said.

If it weren't for Bai Gui's couplet just now, he would never have mentioned it. Everyone knew it and passed it over secretly. But now that he just revealed the metaphor, it is difficult to expose it.

"This is the latest high-quality tea from the tea garden. I give it to Mr. Bai to express my apology."

Boss Liu took out a beautifully packaged tea can from the study and handed it to Bai Gui.

This apology cannot be made in silver dollars, as it would appear that he is a philistine who only spends money, so it is more appropriate to give him something else.

"Boss Liu is so sincere, so I will accept it. I have made Boss Liu a friend."

Bai Gui took a look at the wooden box. It was Dahongpao. It was probably of high quality and not cheap. He knew it in his heart, so he said.

The so-called making friends is just meeting friends, it does not mean that there is much friendship...

Boss Liu is very happy to be on good terms with noble people. This is a good thing, and it will give him face if he tells it. In addition, maybe for people like Bai Gui, this "friendship" is worthless, but often some things are just a matter of words to celebrities, but for him... he will have to break his legs and may not be able to get it done.

Bai Gui and Boss Liu chatted for a few more words and said goodbye.

Boss Liu took Bai Gui and others to the entrance of the tea garden and then stopped.

After a while.

"Master Liu, what should I do with Hua Xiling?"

The tea plantation manager asked.

"This time she collided with Mr. Bai. Fortunately, Mr. Bai spared her once, but... I don't know whether Mr. Bai is attracted to Hua Xiling. Besides, with this calligraphy treasure, I can't make it too obvious. It’s too unfair.”

Boss Liu's face was a little cold. Hua Xiling almost disturbed his good deeds and made him feel uncomfortable. Although he was lucky in the end, he turned the corner and got into a relationship, but this is his ability, his all-round ability, what does it have to do with Hua Xiling? thing.

"Keep her for now, and wait a few days to see if Mr. Bai sends a message asking for her. If not, don't treat her harshly, just treat her normally."

He said calmly.

"By the way, Mr. Liu, and Guan Jiaban..."

The shopkeeper continued to ask for advice.

…

Afternoon, Bai Zhai.

study.

Bai Gui is writing a letter.

He planned to return to Qin Province recently, so he had to write a letter home in advance to inform him of his return.

Delivering letters is much faster than getting home.

Because not only did he return to Qin Province alone, he also brought many gifts. These were the Baifu's wishes and could not be discarded. Moreover, there was no train from Yanjing to Qin Province. It was feasible to go home alone, but it was unavoidable. Too tired.

Boom boom.

knocking.

"Please come in."

Bai Gui frowned and put down the brush.

"My boss, Mrs. Leng from the Leng residence next door wants to thank you. Do you think...are you seeing her or not?"

Lao Li opened the door and asked in a low voice at the door.

"Mrs. Leng? How can you thank me?"

Bai Gui was a little confused. He had never interacted with Mrs. Leng. After meeting Leng Qingqiu last time, he deliberately avoided her and never had a chance to meet her. As for Mrs. Leng, he had never met her before.

"My boss, it's like this. Didn't you say last time that you would try your best to help me if there were any neighborly matters?"

"The deer meat and other things you caught during the last hunting trip were too much to use up. I was afraid it would go to waste, so I distributed some of them to Leng Zhai and the surrounding neighbors. Well, Mrs. Leng came over to express her gratitude..."

"Mrs. Leng is a kindhearted person."

Lao Li said helplessly.

"So that's it."

Bai Gui nodded.

This is very common in wealthy families. For example, some wealthy families will give porridge regularly, and then some beggars who have been favored will choose to repay the favor to the wealthy families, but for the wealthy families, they will not remember this at all...

As for the deer meat he shot, it was also the prey he had hunted with some young men from Jin Mansion in the western suburbs.

"Mrs. Leng comes here to say thank you. I'll go see her."

Bai Gui stood up and said.

Mrs. Leng came to express her gratitude in person, but it was a bit unkind and disrespectful for him to refuse Lao Li. No matter how famous he is, he is treated as an equal among the neighbors.

When I walked to the living room, there was a middle-aged woman sitting there. She looked old and dressed out of date, but no matter how she sat or looked, she was well behaved and she looked like she belonged to a scholarly family.

"Mrs. Leng, I was a little careful and asked you to come over in person. It's my fault as a junior."

Bai Gui came over and apologized.

Respecting the old and loving the young, keeping the old and the young in order, the old people in the Han Dynasty could even "walk on the side roads" and not kneel before the emperor, and their status was very high.

The same is true at this time.

Therefore, at such a young age, he has to observe etiquette at all times.

This is different from treating Lao Li. He is the employer, and Lao Li is a servant, with different status. Of course, in daily life, Bai Gui also takes good care of Lao Li.
