Chapter 259 unwritten names
"Oh, there is no silk handkerchief. I really don't know what your shopkeeper usually uses to write important things." Ximen Qing didn't even forget to laugh at Wu Da here. But in fact, Simon Qing has only heard of writing with a silk handkerchief. As for himself, he usually writes very little. As long as he mentions the pen, his hands tremble a little. Naturally, the words are crooked. He previously said that the silk handkerchief is just to make himself more powerful. As for the seal mud, if it really doesn't work, it's good to bite your finger and press your fingerprints with blood. This is what Ximen Qing secretly thought in his heart and didn't say it. Come on, you go down. It's nothing to do with you."
"Wang An, you are also responsible for writing on the cabinet. Today's calligraphy is also up to you." Ximenqing made a gesture of reaching out. Originally, there was also a plate of dishes in front of him, and the pen and ink were relatively close to Wang An. This modesty became a matter of course.
"Good." Wang An did not refuse. He took some water from the water cup next to him and poured it into the inkstone. Then he took out the ink block and gently grinded it for a while. He repeatedly explored the inkstone with a pen until the pen was soaked with ink. At this time, he spread the paper in front of him and began to write.
The writing process is different from what Ximen Qing imagined. Ximen Qing thought that Wang An would constantly pause during the writing process and confirm the details with him, or bargain with some questions. Unexpectedly, Wang An actually wrote more than half of it in one go, and then put the pen and gently with his mouth. He blew the dry ink on it, picked up the paper and held it in front of Ximen Qing with both hands. Dongjia, do you think this will work?"
Ximen Qing brought it over and watched it carefully. Wang An did not cheat on the specific content of the document, and even the description of the bet was quite accurate, saying that he was under 20,000 taels. If he lost and couldn't get the silver, he was willing to pay for it with his life. Ximenqing read it several times and found that there was nothing wrong with it. Then he carefully looked at the conditions for winning and losing, which surprised him.
On the condition of winning or losing, Wang An wrote: "The big man the owner is looking for will arrive after a incense. If there is no difference in time, then Wang An will lose the bet."
This is an advantage condition that Ximen Qing didn't dare to think of. He hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with a incense? When will you order it? Who will order it?" This is the key. After all, there is no burning incense in the lobby of the Osmanthus Building.
"This owner is free to order whenever you want. You can order it whenever you want." Wang An stopped here and looked around. You see, guys have begun to clean up the table and prepare for dinner. I'm writing this to fix the time, so that there will be a better judgment on the outcome. However, I think this pillar incense should also burn immediately after we sign the bet. If the waiting time is too long, it will not match my previous prediction, and our bet will lose its meaning.
Ximenqing was in ecstasy, but instinct told him that there seemed to be something wrong with it. Just now, Wang An's writing speed was too fast, as if he had figured out how to write in advance. Is he right? I will ask him to draft this bet? In addition, the winning and losing conditions he proposed are too generous for me. Should a normal person have such an attitude in the face of this kind of life-and-death bet? Is it possible that I was calculated in something I haven't noticed yet?
The instinctive sense of caution made Ximen Qing not sign a bet, but picked up the paper and read it several times. At the last time, he was afraid that he would miss something, so he read it in a low voice. But even so, he didn't see anything wrong with the bet.
"Dear owner, I think we should hurry up. You see, there are more and more osmanthus buildings in this lobby, and they are about to have dinner. Dude, the speed of eating is very fast, because if you eat slowly, it will be gone. If we sign the appointment slowly, it will be meaningless. If you say you don't want to gamble, it's too late, I'll take it as if it didn't happen..." Wang An asked Ximen Qing to hurry up with a slow and rational tone, which made Ximen Qing feel strange.
"When did I say no gambling?" Ximen Qing was very angry. Whenever he wanted to see if there were any traps in it, Wang An would provoke him with words. Anyway, this was a bet that was beneficial to Ximen Qing. Did Wang An take advantage of his sense of caution? Want to make Ximen Qing give up by himself with repeated words? That's absolutely impossible.
"Give me the pen." Ximenqing doesn't want to hesitate any more. Since there is no problem, don't drag it off.
Wang An handed over the pen and Ximen Qing grabbed it with one hand. His hands did not tremble as usual, but full of strength and wrote his name on the paper. But when he finished writing the word Ximen, Ximen Qing suddenly stopped, because he thought of a key problem. Yes, this is likely to be Wang An's trap. This man is thoughtful and will never bet with me for no reason. He is sure of winning. Fortunately, I found it early, otherwise I would have said it. Ximenqing's body was covered with a layer of cold sweat.
Wang An has never seen a big teapot. Although Ximen Qing can describe it in words, this description is unreliable after all. People with completely different looks are also similarly described by language. Then the only criterion for judging whether it is a "big man" who is cannon fodder is to see whether the other party has a house and land deed.
However, the real big teapot, the house and the land deed in hand, need to be forged. But Wang An is completely unnecessary, because he has the original in his hand. He has many opportunities to give the original to others and make an agreement. When the time comes, the person will enter the door with the deed and the land deed. At that time, even if I have a hundred mouths, I can't understand. Wang An will say that it is because I don't want to lose, so I see the "big man" I'm looking for and don't admit it.
In addition, it is up to me when to order incense. However, there is another key question, that is, where the incense is ordered. The view of the lobby of Guihua Building is very good, and there is nothing to stop it. You can also see what's inside from the outside. It is completely possible that the people arranged by Wang An will watch at the door and rush into the room at the moment when the incense burns out. In this way, although I have the advantage and make a steady profit on the books, in fact, Wang An is sure to win the bet.
Ximen Qing did not write the word "Qing", but put down the pen and coughed gently.
