Chapter five hundred and twenty seventh pressure
"If you still have time to complain here, you might as well go to study quickly. When you get the exam one day, don't you have to work so hard in the academy, right?"
Su Zhirou, who was also helping in the store, walked over with a stack of red paper in her hand, looked at her, and expressed her contempt for Sheng Yunting's current performance.
"As far as I can tell, the imperial examination is so rigid, just memorize some ancient texts. Isn't it much simpler than the goals we need to implement in the Theology Society?"
Sheng Yunting was naturally dissatisfied and sneered: "It turns out that my hair is long and my knowledge is short. If it is really that simple, why are there only a few people who can stand out in each imperial examination?"
"Anyway, I'm not interested in the imperial examination." Su Zhirou handed the stack of red paper to Du Bai. "Sister said that it needs a lot of couplets. After thinking about it, only brother-in-law, you are suitable for this task."
Although she doesn't know much about calligraphy, she has to admit that the words written by Du Bai do look very comfortable. In her opinion, it should be a symbol of good writing...
Now that it is about to officially open, instead of spending some money to invite everyone to write other calligraphy, it is better to let my brother-in-law work on this.
Du Bai is quite happy to take on this job. After all, the characters he wrote can also play a role in warding off evil spirits to some extent, and are much easier to use than ordinary copybooks.
However, while he was writing, Sheng Yunting looked down at the little spider for a while, suddenly remembered something, raised his head and smiled, "By the way, I also met several fellow friends we learned in the academy. We discussed and waited until the mansion examination was over, and we came out to gather together."
It is not surprising that you will meet fellow friends in such academies. After all, there are young people who are more energetic and leisurely in the searching theology society.
However, young people like this are often keen on taking risks, and they may encounter some amazing dangers. Du Bai thinks that he still needs to pay attention to this, especially the two around him.
"You two wait!"
After thinking about it this way, Du Bai simply wrote two notes and gave them to both of them. The one from Sheng Yunting before had been damaged, and although Su Zhirou didn't know if it was still there, it was safer to have one more.
Sheng Yunting had experienced this inconspicuous gift before. He knew that this thing was indeed useful, so he hid it as a treasure, but before leaving, he did not forget to invite him, hoping to join the party together.
However, Du Bai carefully wrote the couplet, and refused without raising his head, and replied: "I am not a member of your studies, so it's not interesting to participate. It's better to read and write at home with peace of mind."
After experiencing the previous events, he had roughly realized the essence of this learning. There was nothing valuable. It was probably just a game of self-intoxication for children, so he, an adult, would not get involved.
Sheng Yunting probably understood what he meant, so he could only shake his head with some regret: "That's a pity... Brother Du, you are so capable, and you also know many stories that we don't know. It's a big loss for us if you didn't come."
Because the venue for this gathering was in a private courtyard, which was relatively quiet, Su Zhirou could also go out openly, so naturally she would not need Du Bai to cover it.
Du Bai didn't take these children's things seriously, but focused on the management of the store.
When the store is about to officially open in the next two days, I want to invite some friends to support the scene and at least gain some popularity. However, as expected, except for the two Lu brothers, all the friends who helped Xu Zhiyan invited before were ruthless and said that they were sick or other important things were not seen.
This made Xu Zhiyan look a little embarrassed, but he knew that he could not blame them too much. He could only smile bitterly in front of Du Bai, saying, "I probably got some news. Some people said that the Deputy Envoy Fan already knew that the Su family had come to the city, so he secretly warned some people, making them dare not intervene at will or even turn to help deal with you together."
"With his family background, it's hard for anyone to refuse directly. But because I can't stand my face, the best way is to not help each other, and they all pretend to be sick at home, for fear of causing something."
"Did you actually use this method..." Du Bai nodded slightly, then looked at him, "He should have found you, Mr. Xu, too?"
"Of course I found it." Xu Zhiyan nodded. After all, he could even be regarded as the first person to bring the Su family into the city, and he spared no effort behind his back to help the Su family develop. There was almost no intention of covering up. The other party just needed a little question to find out.
However, seeing that he had no difficulty in his expression, Du Bai could guess that this matter should not cause him any trouble.
Sure enough, Xu Zhiyan continued: "Although his family background is big, I have the affection of my uncle, so I don't have to be afraid of him. Moreover, the other party's elders will not take the initiative to vent their anger on such trivial matters of children's affair, so we should be considered as if no one could do anything to each other..."
"As I said before, at least the other party dares not deal with the Su family openly, but the secret hands behind this need to be paid attention to."
In fact, although there are some other words that have not been clearly stated, Du Bai can probably guess. In the eyes of outsiders, the current overall situation is a confrontation between Xu Zhiyan and Fan Yilin. Both the Su family and the Rong family porcelain village may be just chess pieces in their hands, and no one dares to get involved at will to avoid causing unintentional disasters.
But I'm afraid no one would have expected that Xu Zhiyan would have some intention of not wanting to make things too big or even saving the other person's life.
In his heart, Fan Yilin was dancing on the edge of the cliff at this moment, and he tried his best to walk towards the cliff. He would hold the other person hard so as not to fall into the endless abyss.
After all, if the prospects of the Su family are really ruined, it is hard to say whether the strange man who can communicate with ghosts and gods will be in danger. It may even be that death is not the final result, but the soul will suffer...
Under this pressure, the first store of the Su family in Fucheng was officially opened in a slightly low-key manner.
During this period, except for the two brothers of the Lu family, who came to celebrate, there was no special wave.
Even the business was very deserted. Apart from the common people who came to see the newly opened shops here, there were no new customers.
Su Wanmiao and Du Bai were not too impatient at this. After all, they had not become famous at the beginning, and other people except the neighbors nearby may not even know about the newly opened shop here.
What really can be said to be helpful is the help of the Lu family in the Chamber of Commerce.
