Chapter 783 Tsk, too weak...(1/2)

There are a lot of copper coins in the wooden box, and most of the boxes are piled up.

What this person said was not to ask Gu Dingchen to count.

Instead, let him guess.

Gu Dingchen directly rejected his unreasonable proposal.

"I don't need it, please take it back."

But this group of people refused to give up.

"No, you have to guess!"

"If you don't guess correctly, we will stop in front of your stall and prevent others from approaching your stall!"

"This way you don't have to do this business."

No matter how good Gu Dingchen was, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.

He said: "I earn my money, what does it have to do with you?"

"We want to rectify the culture of scholars in the Ming Dynasty, so naturally we can't just sit back and ignore you."

Someone replied shamelessly.

Zhao Ce on the side was speechless.

Su Cai'er was also behind Zhao Ce, looking at the group secretly.

They have to remember that if they marry someone they know well in the future, they will have to take care of those people.

To prevent someone you know from marrying this group of people by mistake.

Gu Dingchen was a little helpless: "You can stand in my way if you like, but let these two guests go first."

"Hmph, if you guess one, we'll let them go first."

A good scholar turned into a scoundrel.

Gu Dingchen gritted his teeth and said, "I guess there are three coins!"

After this, these people were finally relieved to see him compromise.

"Okay, let them go first."

"But you guessed wrong. If not, we won't leave!"

Gu Dingchen ignored them and apologized to Zhao Ce.

"I'm sorry, you two."

"These gadgets are given to you, and the money will be returned to you."

The book boy next to him was not ignorant either. Although he was a little reluctant, he still handed over the broken silver in his hand.

Zhao Ce didn't answer, waved his hand and said: "Open the door for business, I took your goods, I should pay for it."

"Just take it."

Seeing that he didn't take it, Gu Dingchen could only hand it over and apologize again.

The leader, Mr. Cheng, didn't wait any longer and shouted again: "Gu Dingchen, don't you want to continue guessing?"

Gu Dingchen glanced at him and sneered: "If you can't guess right, then I won't guess anymore."

"If you want to stay here, just stay here."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the table to read.

Seeing him, he really refused to guess, and this group of people was a little boring.

Someone said unhappily: "You are already in business, why don't you deal with copper coins all day long?"

"It's just a small amount of copper coins, how come you can't guess right?"

"Is it because you look down on us and don't want to pay attention to us?"

As soon as these words came out, some people were unhappy.

Everyone pointed at Gu Dingchen and said various things.

Su Cai'er on the side felt a little angry when she heard this.

These scholars are so bad.

Obviously, everyone is a candidate in the same class, but they use their so-called etiquette, justice and shame to laugh at a candidate who wants to earn his own money to study.

Don't you even have food to eat, so do you still need others to take care of your face?

As if sensing Su Cai'er's unhappiness, Zhao Ce suddenly stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the person in front.

This action attracted the attention of the people in front of him.

They stopped talking and looked at Zhao Ce in confusion.

"do what?"

The people behind him also looked over curiously.

Zhao Ce smiled and said: "Master Gu wants to do business and deals with copper coins all day long, but he cannot guess the copper coins in this wooden box. It is indeed wrong."

After listening to Zhao Ce's words, Su Cai'er looked at him curiously.

This group of people never expected that Zhao Ce would actually agree with them.

Looking at the way this couple is dressed, you can tell that their family background is extraordinary.

This person is suitable to be friends with them!

The book boy and Gu Dingchen over there were also stunned for a moment.

This young man and his wife seem to be good people, but they don't want to agree with these people.

Gu Dingchen was so bookish that he no longer wanted the scraps of silver in his hands.

He was about to return the money to Zhao Ce when he heard Zhao Ce continue: "It's just..."

"You all read all day long. Do you know how many 'Confucius said' there are in the Four Books?"

The group was just happy, but after hearing Zhao Ce's words, they all became quiet for a moment.

Someone murmured: "How many 'Confucius' are there?"

"Who would be so idle to count this?"

Some people frowned and guessed: "Three hundred, three hundred and fifty?"

"No, there are also things like 'Mencius said' and 'Zigong said'. Do they count?"

Then Mr. Cheng realized that Zhao Ce was speaking for Gu Dingchen.

He said somewhat unhappily: "Do you know how many 'Confucius said' there are in the Four Books?"

They are all scholars.

I have studied the Four Books and Five Classics since I was a child, and it can even be said that I have memorized them backwards and forwards.

But where could it be so boring to count these things?

Immediately, some people closed their eyes, chanted silently, and counted with their fingers.

But the scene was so noisy that it was impossible to calm down and relax.

Just after I read a few words, I was interrupted by the words of others.

Gu Dingchen also flashed his eyes and looked at Zhao Ce outside the stall.

Use the other person's way to repay the other person's body.

Seeing the deflated appearance of the group of people, Gu Dingchen couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart.

He can't afford to offend these people now, but this young master is obviously not afraid of them.

Think about this.

Gu Dingchen looked at Zhao Ce with some gratitude.

Zhao Ce smiled and did not answer how many.

Instead, he said confidently: "You must have a complete set of "Four Books" in your hands?"

"You don't even know what you have in your hands."

"But your money box requires Mr. Gu to guess how many copper coins he got. Isn't this a difficult task?"

His words made everyone blush.

"You, who are you..."

"We just can't bear to see him, as the future pillar of the imperial court, so willing to let himself down."

"I'm just an insignificant person." Zhao Ce shook his head and said "tsk".

"What? You don't even know a few of the 'Confucius', and you still want to find out my name?"
