The man immediately said, "There is no best in literature. We have all seen the Queen's poems, which are naturally excellent. I admire them very much. But we have also seen the one that Le Zhi is holding now, and it is not inferior at all. It is very likely to win the first place, so I don't think it is necessarily worse than the Queen's poems."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.
But no one came out to question it.
After all, that was the poem written by the poet Xu Zuiyin.
However, a woman at the table said with a smile: "In that case, Zhaoyang, why don't you take it quickly? Otherwise, Lezhi and Zhouxian will regret it!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhaoyang looked at the two friends who were going to give him poems.
Liu Zhaoyang was actually a little helpless, because he didn't say he wanted to be in the spotlight like this.
As for what Xu Lezhi had just said about if he won the championship, he didn't think it was a big deal. The main thing was that he couldn't do that. After all, it would offend some people if he lost face for Liu Baishi.
This is not conducive to the purpose of their trip.
But Liu Zhaoyang didn't move!
Xu Lezhi and another young man named Zhou Xian felt somewhat helpless. They stood up and placed the poems directly in front of Liu Zhaoyang.
Among them, Xu Lezhi said directly and generously: "After we go back, you can just ask me to listen to Miss Youwei's music! When the time comes, remember to brag more for me!"
Zhou Xian, on the other hand, was even more so, saying directly: "You don't have to give me anything, just take it! Anyway, we are just here to show our support today. Le Zhi and I both admire Miss You Wei, so it's okay for you to come during this time of support."
After saying that, he went straight back to his seat, and Xu Lezhi did the same.
The people around them were not surprised to see the two of them being so generous. After all, the seven people at the table grew up together, and all of them came to do business because their families could not study well, so they had a very good relationship.
Liu Zhaoyang was helpless because he didn't say anything.
But Liu Zhaoyang also knew that their table was not like the other tables, and they were not here for Liu Baishi or to win the championship, so he nodded and said, "In that case, I will help you present the poems."
Hearing Liu Zhaoyang saying that he would help deliver the goods, Xu Lezhi cursed, "What a hypocritical person!"
Everyone at the table started laughing.
And at this time.
Tan Zhongyong was startled because he saw a maid from the flower shop bringing Su Liheng over, so he immediately said, "Shopkeeper Su has arrived."
Tan Zhongyong stood up.
When the others heard this, they also stood up and looked in the direction where Tan Zhongyong was looking.
but.
Everyone was a little surprised.
immediately
The maid brought Su Liheng to where Tan Zhongyong and the others were.
Su Liheng still looks the same, fat and a little silly.
When he came to the table, Su Liheng immediately bowed and said, "Everyone, I'm really sorry. I had some things to deal with at home, so I'm late. Please forgive me."
Tan Zhongyong had met Su Liheng before, so he immediately said, "Shopkeeper Su is being polite, and this hasn't officially started yet, so it can't be considered waiting."
Su Liheng smiled slightly.
The others looked at Su Liheng, and to be honest, they were somewhat surprised.
Among those who are in business and help their families run the business, the youngest is in his twenties, and the oldest, Tan Zhongyong, is already in his thirties.
But looking at Su Liheng in front of them, although they had inquired about his age, his chubby appearance was indeed different from what they had imagined.
Young and chubby.
Looks a bit silly.
At this age, are you really running such a big business?
But we all know that we cannot judge a person by his appearance, so we all started introducing ourselves.
Su Liheng greeted them one by one.
After that, everyone sat down.
Su Liheng actually had planned to come here early, after all, Wanli Chamber of Commerce is a big chamber of commerce.
If Su Liheng wants to open up the southern market, Wanli Chamber of Commerce is a shortcut. Otherwise, if he wants to open up the southern market, it will take some effort.
Moreover, Su Liheng had inquired and found that there were many businessmen in many cities in the south, and their family backgrounds were quite complicated.
So if he wants to start a business directly like in Beijing, it would be a bit difficult.
After all, the emperor is far away and many things cannot be done like in the capital.
Therefore, after discussing with Li Jiulang, Su Liheng said that he could not rashly go to the South, otherwise he would suffer losses. After all, the market there is somewhat different from Luoan. If he wants to go, he must cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce.
Li Jiulang also agreed with his cooperation with the Southern Chamber of Commerce, and the first choice Li Jiulang recommended was Wanli Chamber of Commerce.
But Li Jiulang did not let him take the initiative to contact, but asked him to wait.
So, I waited until today.
But just before he was about to go out, he discovered that the two hundred taels of silver he had casually left in his yard were missing!
That made him very anxious!
Finally he found out that it was his third sister who took it, so he went to find her and she told him that she had given it to Zhao Xin.
Su Liheng was even more helpless because no one knew where that brat Su Zhaoxin had run off to!
So after a while, Su Liheng decided to come here first.
Therefore, there were some traces of sweat on Su Liheng's forehead due to his anxiety over losing the money just now.
After all, if that brat Su Zhaoxin took the money, he would definitely spend it recklessly!
Moreover, if I spend too much and my uncle and others find out, then it must be my fault, and my father will beat me again!
The money is gone!
And I'll get a beating!
Can you not be anxious! ?
So on the way here, Su Liheng was sweating profusely!
but
When he sat at the table, everyone could see the marks of his sweat much more clearly.
They were all stunned.
Especially Tan Zhongyong, who inexplicably developed some affection for Su Liheng.
After all, Su Liheng's status was very important. If he couldn't come, he could just send someone over. They didn't dare to say much and could only complain a few words. But it was obvious that this person had run all the way here in a hurry and was sweating.
Since he values them so much, this respect makes them have to have a good impression of him.
Su Liheng didn't know what these people were thinking. He glanced at the people at the table and understood. After all, he had asked Li Jiulang about their origins and identities before.
It’s not that he is going to do anything, after all, he is going to talk about business, so it’s always good to know.
But just when Su Liheng was about to pick up the wine cup.
There was an uproar!
Because Liu Baishi came out.
The people at that seat also heard it and looked over.
Su Liheng didn't care whether it was Liu Baishi or not. After all, there was a girl from Raojiang named Youli living in his heart, and she had taken root in his heart. No matter what other girls he looked at, they were not as good as Youli, so it was better not to look at them.
but
The others, however, gasped when they saw Liu Baishi!
Even though many people present had seen Liu Baishi, they couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
I saw Liu Baishi at the moment, dressed in white, with a face as beautiful as peach and plum, curved willow eyebrows, almond eyes with a spring in them, a nose like a hanging gall bladder, a charming mouth, a jasper mouth, and starry eyes twinkling with starlight. He looked a bit cold, but he didn't keep people away. Instead, he seemed a bit close.
Such a beauty deserves to be called an oiran, with black hair cascading down like flowing clouds and scattered around her waist, with a somewhat casual look. She has an elegant and refined temperament, as gentle as jade, and pure as a banished celestial being from heaven.
Seeing Liu Baishi, who is ranked fourth on the Rouge List
Not to mention Xu Lezhi, Zhou Xian and others, even Tan Zhongyong, Liu Zhaoyang and others were a little surprised.
And at the banquet, many people were like this!
His eyes were fixed on Liu Baishi, watching her walk to the center of the stage.
Xu Lezhi and the others were just to the left of Liu Baishi. Looking at his profile, especially the upturned corners of Liu Baishi's mouth, one inexplicably felt as if being bewitched, which aroused endless reverie.
Liu Baishi spoke in a clear voice: "I am Liu Baishi, nice to meet you all."
As he spoke, Liu Baishi bowed to everyone.
After that, of course, they started talking again, and of course, they just said those polite words.
but
Xu Lezhi, Zhou Xian and the others had no time to listen to all this, but stared blankly at Liu Baishi.
Qu Youwei is very beautiful.
But
This willow white lion.
It seems that she is more charming than Miss Youwei?
next moment.
Xu Lezhi stood up and walked to Liu Zhaoyang, saying directly: "Anyway, you are not interested in women, let alone Miss Bai Shi, so I will deliver the poem. And that lady is a couple, so don't bother them and make people dislike you for no reason."
As he spoke, Xu Lezhi directly picked up the poem on the table that he had just solemnly vowed to give to Liu Zhaoyang.
Zhou Xian followed closely behind and also picked up his own. He looked at Xu Lezhi and said, "Zhaoyang, it's not that I won't help you. Lezhi is right. You are not interested! Why are you supporting me? Let me do it. Anyway, I bought it at a high price at home and have been thinking about finding a time to show off."
Hear what these two people said.
Not to mention Liu Zhaoyang, even everyone else was stunned.
Looking at Xu Lezhi again, I saw Xu Lezhi looking at Liu Baishi and sighing: "She is so beautiful. I thought Miss Youwei was invincible, but I didn't expect Miss Baishi to be even better. The poems I got from my father really come in handy."
