Chapter 565 The Man's Shame

Chapter 565 The Man's Shame
Hearing the young scholar's question, the shopkeeper ignored him, and a waiter lazily walked over and said, "Guest officer, this store is all high-end women's clothing, and the cheapest one costs four French dollars. Oh, that's four taels." silver."

When the scholar heard this, his face changed slightly, and he said, "Can you let me have a look at the style first."

The guy had seen countless people, and when he saw the person in front of him, he knew that he was short of money, so he said impatiently: "Are you going to buy it or not? If you don't buy it, don't delay our business."

The thing of watching people order dishes has been the same since ancient times, especially in such high-end shops.

People who work in high-end stores often have the illusion that they have become high-end masters, and they will unconsciously show contempt for those customers who look poorly dressed.

However, some well-trained people hide it well, and generally don't show it too obviously.

It is absolutely a shame for a man to be looked down upon so nakedly.

The scholar's face turned red immediately, he pointed at the guy with trembling fingers and said, "You open the door to welcome guests from all over the world, but you judge people based on their appearance, it's really contemptible. Unscrupulous stores like yours will never last long."

The guy said with a look of disdain: "Yo, you are in a hurry. I have seen a lot of people like you. I will show you after a while, but you excused that you didn't bring enough money and left. Hmph, our family The clothes are all high-end, if you get dirty and don’t buy them, it would be a big loss. Stop talking nonsense, and leave quickly if you don’t buy them.”

As the guy said that, he waved his hand and drove people away.

The scholar was even more angry. He stood still and refused to leave. His face became even more flushed, and he pointed at the guy and said angrily, "Don't look down on people. The reason why businessmen, peasants, businessmen, and merchants become cheap is because you have too many of them." This kind of despicable person who judges people by appearance has tarnished the reputation of the businessman. When I am in the temple in the future, I must vigorously rectify and punish you and other despicable people."

The guy seemed to have heard some funny joke. After laughing, he pointed at the scholar's nose and scolded: "What do you think you are? The champion of the new department? Look at you so poor. If you can become a high-ranking official, then I It's His Royal Highness the Regent. Poor, go, go, if you don't go, I'll call someone to throw you out."

The quarrel between the two stopped Qi Xuan and Deng Xiaojin who were choosing clothes. The guy's words made the two girls angry, but seeing Jiang Chuan's silence, they both held back.

The shopkeeper looked displeased at the two female customers, frowned and said to the guy, "Sixth, shut up. If you disturb the distinguished guests, I can't spare you."

The guy shut his mouth embarrassingly, but he still squinted at the scholar with an expression of wanting to chase him away.

The scholar was so angry that he couldn't speak at this time, and finally he laughed back in anger, pointed at the guy and said, "Okay! Okay! Okay! When the day comes, I will definitely come to thank you for today's kindness."

After speaking, he turned around and left.

"Brother, please stay." Jiang Chuan called out.

The scholar stopped, looked back at Jiang Chuan, and looked at him suspiciously, with anger still on his face.

"I don't know what's the matter with you, my lord?" After looking at Jiang Chuan, the scholar looked a little hesitant, but he still bowed.

"Brother, are you a scholar who came to Beijing to take the exam?" Jiang Chuan asked.

"Exactly." The scholar nodded.

"Now that the imperial list has been announced, from what Xiongtai said just now, it must be on the list?" Jiang Chuan asked with a smile.

When the scholar heard the words, the anger on his face dissipated immediately, and he changed into a proud expression: "Exactly, I'm not talented, and I'm honored to be on the list of emperors. And tomorrow His Royal Highness the Regent will summon me in the palace Waiting for the list of scholars."

Jiang Chuan knew it in his heart, as expected.

"It turns out that you are a Jinshi of the current department, and your brother is indeed a great talent, so I would like to congratulate you here." Jiang Chuan said with a smile and cupped his hands.

The scholar looked at Jiang Chuan's aristocratic aura with the majesty of a superior, but he was so kind to himself, and he was in a good mood instantly, and he bowed his hands and said: "Thank you, my lord. It was really unexpected to be able to go to high school this time." If it wasn't for His Royal Highness the Regent's reform of the examination content and form this time, instead of using stereotyped scriptures to select scholars, instead of using tactics to select scholars, it would be very difficult for Xiaosheng to pass this time. His Royal Highness The Regent is magnificent and beyond human reach. .”

When Qi Xuan and the two daughters heard that the scholar admired Jiang Chuan so much, they were in a good mood immediately, with smiles on their faces.Deng Xiaojin was even more mischievous, winking at Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan was also slightly proud, but he didn't show too obvious emotions.

For this imperial examination reform, the scholar in front of him has a vested interest, so he naturally wants to praise it.

Everyone is in a beautiful mood, the only ones who are not beautiful are the store manager and the guy.

Especially that guy, the expression on his face is even more wonderful.

Just now I was mocking him and wanted to drive him away, but I didn't expect that he was already a Jinshi of Jinke.

Everyone in the world knows that the imperial court will award officials after passing the Jinshi examination.When he thought that he had offended a future official just now, the guy wanted to slap him twice.

But at this time, the scholar didn't pay any attention to him, instead he chatted with the noble young master vigorously, and he didn't dare to disturb him, so he could only look at his shopkeeper with a depressed face.

The shopkeeper wished he could beat this guy up, it's not good for you to offend anyone, and you went to mock a modern scholar.Although there are quite a few officials in the capital, those who can open shops also have some background, and I have seen many officials with backgrounds.

But it is definitely not a worry-free thing to offend a Jinshi, a future official, for no reason.

Who knows what opportunities this person will have in the future, maybe he will rise to the top of the sky and become an excellent minister. If he thinks about what happened today and orders him casually, their shop will be overwhelmed.

The shopkeeper wanted to come forward to make amends and say a few nice words, but seeing the noble young man who came before and the scholar talking, he didn't dare to intervene and could only stay aside with a smiling face.

"Brother must also want to buy winter clothes for the family members?"

The scholar sighed, with a look of shame and nostalgia on his face, and he said after a while: "Young master, I learned today that I will be summoned by His Royal Highness the Regent tomorrow. Yi. I just passed by the door of this store and saw women's clothing for sale. I thought of my little sister in my hometown in the south of the Yangtze River, and wanted to buy a set of winter clothes for her. I left home three years ago to study, and I haven't seen my little sister for three years. Ben I thought about going back to my hometown to visit my little sister after His Royal Highness's summoning is over tomorrow. But who knows..."

Speaking of this, the scholar showed a frustrated expression of shame and self-blame.
