Chapter 20 Lu Cai

"The guest official is here to take the scientific examination in Chang'an. If you feel tired, you can go to the next door to have a hot bath and take a hot bath for 5 cents."

The waiter looked at Lu Cai and recommended Lu Cai earnestly.

"Five cents..." When he heard this price, Lu Cai couldn't help but look embarrassed.

For a poor commoner who came from Qinghe County to Chang'an, he had already spent a lot of money on his own. He even had the occasional part-time job of writing letters on his behalf, so he had enough money to come to Chang'an.

However, there are many dignitaries in Chang'an, so you should be able to write music scores and make a living by yourself.

The waiter looked at Lu Cai's face with a difficult look, then took a few steps back, knocked on a wooden board behind him, and said calmly:

"You are lucky. The King of Yue's Agricultural College is recruiting six subjects, including literature, mathematics, agriculture, medicine, meditation and music.

You guys can apply for the job as long as you feel interested.

I really became a gentleman, not only does it include food and accommodation, but also free paper, scientific examinations and special car pickup. Isn’t this more comfortable than staying in this inn?”

"Waiter... You are so enthusiastic about introducing this!" Lu Cai said in surprise when he heard the waiter's words.

"Oh, this inn and the next door are also the property of the Yuewang Mansion." The waiter smiled,

"I have bought a brand here. As long as I can hire it, the inn and I will also have rewards. Isn't there any dates or no dates to beat me?"

Hearing the waiter's words, Lu Cai looked at the little money left in his pocket, and felt that this was at least a place to eat, so he took a luxurious bath and took the introduction card given by the waiter and went.

Sign up for a pretty ordinary house in Chang'an.

However, when I came over, I saw someone coming out and shouting, "There are twenty liberal arts teachers and twenty assistant teachers. If you want to apply for the liberal arts program, you can give up or go to apply for other subjects."

"Oh..." Hearing this shout, the people who had been around sighed and dispersed most of them.

After all, the exhaustive students who come to the scientific examination may not have other abilities, but there are basically two tricks to become students in literature.

The main purpose of Li Tai asking them to come here is to educate their children to learn to learn to read. There are too many qualified people.

When Lu Cai saw that literature was hopeless, he chose Leke, who was his best.

Although Lu Cai didn't understand what the so-called music has to do with farming, even if he was a teacher himself, what could he give to the students?

But it doesn't matter. I just need to temporarily take care of food and accommodation in Chang'an, a place where I need money.

After Lu Cai came in, he found out that the person in charge of Le Ke was a child who seemed to be only eight years old.

As for the few candidates who come to apply for Leke, of course, it is normal to think about it carefully.

If you have a certain level of Le Gui, you may not be less rewarding to be a musician when you go to the flower building of Kanglefang to be a musician, and your treatment may not be worse than being a teacher here.

And maybe some high-ranking officials and nobles will recommend them if they see them right, and maybe they don’t even need to be an official in the scientific examination.

In other words, he pretended to be noble, so he deserved to be poor and had no way out! Lu Cai smiled with a self-deprecating smile.

"Is this person so confident?!" Li Tai looked at Lu Cai coming in, feeling nervous without seeing any doubts about her child doing invigilance here. She had a good attitude and said, "It's a joy to break the formation."

?”

"Yes." Lu Cai heard Li Tai's words and said, "But there are not enough musical instruments."

"It's okay, what kind of musical instruments are you good at? Just use them here!" Li Tai had already prepared the instruments of "The King of Qin Breaking the Formation".

I don’t know much about other music in this era, the only thing I know is "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Formation".

After getting involved in music and rituals, the first song is this, so I can only use this to do the exam questions.

Lu Cai was not nervous. He first rang the bell, then played the piano, and soon began to honk the whistle, and in a blink of an eye he played the flute again. The pipa built the zither, and the drums were endless, and the music was like a grand symphony.

You ask Li Tai why she kneels in her seat as she listens, because Li Tai feels that she doesn't kneel and listens, which is simply an insult to the performer.

Li Tai naturally didn't know Lu Cai, and he didn't know that in the future he revised "The King of Qin Breaking the Formation" and changed his name to "Seven Deeds Dances", composed the music "Successful Dances" and changed it to "Nine Deeds Dances", and then

He created "Shangyuan Dance", and many songs have even been passed down for thousands of years.

From this we can see that Lu Cai is definitely the top musician in the contemporary era, and may not even be one of them.

Li Tai used "The King of Qin Breaking the Formation Music" to test him, and he was simply playing a big sword in front of Guan Gong, and he was too overestimating his ability.

However, Li Tai has received the court education and knows that Lu Cai's musician's strength may still be a bit immature, but he already has a bit of ambition for everyone. If he can polish it, he will probably become the king of musicians of this era.

"Good song, good song!" Li Tai couldn't help but applaud, "If you pass, you will be a musician from the farming school in the future."

When Lu Cai saw that he had passed, he felt glad.

At this time, he couldn't help asking, "Little Langjun, I'm a little confused. I don't know if I can solve my doubts?"

Lu Cai looked at Li Tai and took the lead in asking for doubts in his heart.

"If you have any questions, as long as I can give you an answer, I will definitely give you an answer!" Li Tai said affirmatively.

"I heard that this is an agricultural institution built by King Yue, and I don't know why it involves Leke?" Lu Cai said in confusion.

"So that's it!" Li Tai nodded, "It's normal for you to have such a question, but it's easy to answer.

There are two main aspects. One is that I plan to try to carry out large-scale intensive planting. In order to facilitate management, drum sounds and music sounds are the most convenient to form organizational force, I plan to try to strengthen instructions in this aspect.

As for the second, it is the food itself!”

"Grain itself?" Lu Cai was a little confused when he heard Li Tai's words.

Li Tai said, "As the saying goes, all things have spirits. Since we humans like to listen to music, do crops also like music?

So I plan to set aside a piece of land next year to try it out.

For example, letting them listen to music for an hour every day will make them grow stronger!”

"The little husband's idea is refreshing. Can you use music to assist the growth of crops?!" Lu Cai's eyes lit up.

"This is just a try!" Li Tai said to Lu Cai, "But as long as it is really useful, I will make someone use the twenty-four solar terms to compose the twenty-four solar terms songs, and integrate the precautions for each solar terms, so as to

Assist the people in agricultural planting.”

Hearing Li Tai's words, Lu Cai's eyes flashed a few times.

To be honest, Lu Cai never thought that what Li Tai mentioned was that only people above all people can enjoy music, and no one cares whether the people at the bottom can enjoy music.

This seemed to let Lu Cai see a new world, but although Lu Cai was curious about what the new world was behind this door, Lu Cai did not push open the door.

Because he is striving to wait for this year's imperial examination, he must be the best person in the imperial examination.

"What about the teachers recruited this time?" Li Tai looked at Ma Zhou and asked, "Are you adapting to school life?"

Ma Zhou said: "Fortunately, the teachers in liberal arts have basically started to take their children to "Thousand Character Classics".

If you have diligent eyes, it should not be difficult for you to ask these more than 800 children to read and read.

Lu Cai of Leke is really a genius of rituals and music, and is definitely qualified to reconcile the six laws and six Lü.

In comparison, although some people have been teaching the countdown, agricultural science, Medicinal science and medicine, there is no talent to become the section chief."

"The agricultural science department lets them slowly cultivate a section chief. Whoever farms is the best and who can lead students the most. After spending more than ten or twenty years, a section chief of the agricultural science department will naturally appear.

In the mathematics department, I am going to go to the Taishi Bureau or the Chess Attendant to find someone to come and take charge.

Mo Ke, I hope that the Mo family could climb out a thousand years ago, but there was no one, so I could only choose from the craftsmen.

In terms of medical science, I have heard that Sun Simiao was the best in medicine at the age of time. It would be the best if he came to take charge."

Li Tai stretched out his finger and counted them one by one, and finally sighed, "In this world, talent is really rare!"

"Give it back to Sun Simiao, that's a god-level figure. How could you like your agricultural institution!"

Ma Zhou looked at Li Tai with disdain and said,

"Don't be too ambitious and think down-to-earth, who are there people!"

"Be careful to use it first. Anyway, compared with liberal arts, you can take your time in other subjects."

Li Tai was not very anxious, and said to Ma Zhoudao,

"Our university is originally experimental. We grow while exploring and slowly wait for it to take root and sprout."

"Okay, then I'll work part-time first!" Ma Zhou sighed, "But most people only sign temporary contracts. By February, I'm afraid that I'll still have to recruit another group of people at that time."

"They can't win!" Li Tai shook his head, "Most of the people who can come here are poor students.

Since they have no money to give gifts to high-ranking officials, does it matter if they can let the Red Mansions sing the name of them? There are too few people who can win the imperial examination if they meet dead rats.

Aren’t you just an example? If you can win the imperial examination, you will still come and hang out with me?"

"King of Yue, you are actually very wise when you don't speak." Ma Zhou said solemnly when he heard Li Tai's teasing.

"Tsk tsk, you're ready to kill someone!" Li Tai sighed.

At this time, a father-in-law came to promulgate the imperial edict, and everything was summarized into one sentence,

"King Yue, the censor has sued you, go to the East Palace to explain."

When the people who announced the edict took a hanging money and left, Ma Zhou said seriously, "It seems that the matter between us and the Zheng family has been known."

"I'll bring the flow of water that made the bathhouse and the output of coal miners!"

Li Tai took a deep breath and said, "Fortunately, even if you were scolded for this matter, at most you would lose the boiling water business.

But if it succeeds, the Zheng family will be able to get the industry steadily."

Ma Zhou stopped talking, just bowed slightly to Li Tai, and then sent Li Tai away respectfully.

When Li Tai came to the East Palace, he saw the Censor Zhang Xuansu on the side, and there were also important officials such as Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling.

They were bowing their heads to deal with government affairs. Li Tai came and greeted him, and continued to deal with government affairs, as if they were just tools for dealing with government affairs and had no feelings for them.

"Li Tai has met a saint!" After all, Li Tai is not arrogant when he met for the official moment.

"Qingque, you are here." Li Shimin said calmly when he saw Li Tai coming.

"The censor played you forcibly robbing the girl of the people and asked Zheng Fengchi for a huge bribe.

Zheng Fengchi had no choice but to let his granddaughter give you in the name of dowry, so he asked you to come and make a statement!"

"Aye, I'm wronged!"

This script is completely different from the script Li Tai imagined that he colluded with Zheng Fengchi and competed for profit with the people.

Originally, Li Tai wanted to throw the data on the man's face and let him see how he competed for profit with the people.

But unexpectedly, he actually sued himself for asking for bribes from Zheng Fengchi...

Depend on!

Did Zheng Fengchi come here to sue himself? Who is meddling in other people's business!

Li Tai took a deep breath and said, "Although Zheng Fengchi's granddaughter has indeed become my eldest maid.

But these industries are her dowry, I haven't touched a penny, she is all taking care of them herself.

If you don’t believe it, here is my account book for this month. Please ask Aye and all the ministers to review it together.

You can see if there is any problem with my Yue Palace account this month.”

Hearing this, Li Shimin waved his hand and soon a servant came over to take the account book from Li Tai.

Li Shimin first handed the accounts to Zhang Xuansu, and then handed them to other ministers.

These ministers who can get here will never forget that this inhuman ability is just a basic configuration for them.

Li Tai's account books were even clearer, and the corresponding loans were made. The ministers took a look and could tell that Li Tai had no fake accounts.

"Since you are not greedy for the Zheng family's money, what do you want the Zheng family's mother to follow you?" Li Shimin said to Li Tai curiously.

"For the Zheng family's textile technology!" Li Tai explained,

"In winter, in order to ensure that the people of Chang'an can enjoy boiling water, coal miners need to dig coal mines day and night.

The hands of those miners either cracked or swollen, which was the warm winter life of the people of Chang'an.

So how could I watch their hands and feet get frozen or even disabled!"

Li Tai said, then raised his hands, rubbed his hands, pointed at his shoulders, and said,

"So I used the textile industry given by the Zheng family to make some gloves and shoulder pads for them, and even prepared to make a set of clothes for them.

If there is no textile industry, I can’t make these. If I go out to buy them, it would be too expensive. It would be better to make them yourself.”

"Congratulations to the saint, the King of Yue is the blessing of the saint and the virtue of the saint!"

Wei Zheng said something sarcastic with a straight face. If Li Tai hadn't known him, he wouldn't believe that the person who said this was Wei Zheng.

Hearing Wei Zheng's words, Li Shimin smiled proudly and was about to say a few words of praise.

At this time, Du Ruhui put down the account book in his hand, raised his head to look at Li Tai, and said,

"The saint, there was obviously a large balance in the account book handed over by the King of Yue, but in the end it was all spent.

I wonder if I can ask King Yue, where did the money go?"
