After bidding farewell to He Zichang, Yuzhu walked out of the Xuezheng Yamen and returned to the inn owned by Hu Biao.
This time when he went south, Li Si'er forced Yuzhu to bring a lot of people, and he also brought all the small items he was used to on the road with him.
Obviously, Jiuhua Academy cannot provide such a large place for Yuzhu to accommodate the servants around him.
"Boss Hu, please go there yourself and rent three houses at the foot of Jiuhua Academy, two large and one small. The older one will accommodate the servants in the mansion and Geshiha sent by the eighth uncle, and the younger one will be left alone.
Come down here and let me live by myself."
In the past, Hu Biao had always regarded Long Keduo as his real master and secretly revealed a lot of information about Yuzhu.
However, after Yuzhu successfully passed the Shuntian Prefecture Chief Examination, Hu Biao's mentality changed greatly.
If you follow such a promising master and keep cheating, you will be struck by lightning sooner or later!
"Hey." Hu Biao accepted the order respectfully, but he did not leave immediately. Instead, he bowed and whispered, "Please tell me, second master, who are the people serving at the small house?"
Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction. Hu Biao was willing to take the initiative to come closer, which must be a good thing.
"Among the older girls, Hanshuang and Yan'er are the only ones, and at most there will be a few third-class girls and rough ladies. Among the younger boys, there are Wu Jiang and Wu Sheng. You and Liu Wu will be the ones in charge. Follow me.
As for the nursing homes, well, it’s up to you.”
Hu Biao recited Yuzhu's instructions silently twice with great caution, until he could no longer forget them, and then Zha Qian withdrew.
Problems that money can solve are not a big deal here in Yuzhu.
Hu Biao and his men left first. When Yuzhu led the large army and arrived at the foot of Jiuhua Mountain, everything had been arranged.
Yuzhu stepped into the small house and walked around in a circle. There was actually a small garden at the back of the yard.
Well, Hu Biao is very good at doing things, but he is a talented person.
There is a big difference between the houses in the south and the courtyard houses in the north.
The most significant difference is that houses in the south do not pay attention to the beauty of symmetry, but focus on the beautiful scenery created by the clever layout of landscapes, strange rocks, ancient trees and pavilions.
Yuzhu didn't care about these extraneous things. He occupied the main room and the east wing, leaving the rest to Hanshuang and Lin Yan'er to discuss.
"Sister, how do you think we should arrange it?" Hanshuang took the initiative to discuss with Lin Yan'er unprecedentedly.
Lin Yaner smiled and said: "Sister, you are most familiar with the second master's habits, so it's up to you to take care of it."
Hanshuang has always taken care of Yuzhu's affairs. Lin Yan'er is not stupid, how could she interfere randomly?
After all, she has only been with Yuzhu for how many days?
Hanshuang knew in her heart that along the way, Lin Yaner had been sleeping with Yuzhu every night, and her popularity was unstoppable.
The second- and third-class girls around Yuzhu are all very clever. When nothing happens, they like to get in front of Lin Yaner.
Hanshuang also sees the changes in his subordinates and remembers them in his heart.
Hanshuang said with a smile: "Sister, I'm joking. Who else knows the things around the second master better than you?"
As soon as Lin Yan'er heard this, she knew that Hanshuang was feeling disgusted.
However, Yuzhu likes to hug Lin Yaner and sleep on his pillow every day, while Hanshuang can only stare, but there is nothing he can do.
"Sister, I don't know anything. If I poke the hole and ask the second master to give me a reward, I will be very unlucky." Lin Yan'er used retreat to advance and did not compete with Han Shuang for power at all. p>
Lin Yan'er is a climbing tool trained by the Lin family with a lot of money. She has received a systematic education in fighting for favor since she was a child. She takes a long-term view.
Many times, if you don't fight for a man's favor, you will fight for it. If you fight desperately, it is better not to fight.
Lin Yan'er saw clearly that as long as Yuzhu continued to sleep next to her every day, the girls in the family would come closer sooner or later.
This is the general trend and is not subject to anyone’s will.
Therefore, Lin Yaner has no intention of fighting for power with Hanshuang. If she has time, she might as well hook up with Yuzhu and give birth to the eldest son of the Tong family in advance.
There is strength in numbers, and it only took one afternoon to arrange the servants around Yuzhu.
The next day, Yuzhu took Wu Jiang and Wu Sheng to the front of Jiuhua Academy in a light car.
After Wu Jiang handed over He Zichang's name card, word quickly spread that the mountain chief had invited him.
According to Hu Biao, Jiuhua Academy was an academy built by several local gentry during the Shunzhi period. It has a history of more than fifty years.
Since the founding of the academy, more than 100 people have studied in the academy, and more than ten people have been awarded Jinshi.
In Jiangnan Province, a place with the most brutal imperial examination competition in the country, it is extremely difficult for Jiuhua Academy to train more than ten Jinshi.
The doorman led Yuzhu to the mountain chief's residence. When Yuzhu entered the room, he saw an old man wearing a gray cotton jacket, standing in the hall with his hands behind his back.
"Student Yuzhu, please pay homage to the mountain chief." Yuzhu bowed his head respectfully and saluted.
"Well, let's get up. Since it was recommended by He Xuezheng, I must know the rules here, right?" The mountain leader neither gave his first name nor his surname, and suddenly mentioned the rules.
He Zichang gave him a letter of recommendation without saying anything. What rules does Yuzhu know?
The old revolution always encounters new situations.
Yuzhu's mind flashed, and he cupped his hands and said: "Uncle He has said many rules, I wonder which one the chief mountain is referring to?"
"Oh, if you want to study in our academy, you need to support one thousand taels of silver, no less." The mountain chief did not wait for Yuzhu's reply, and said decisively, "If you don't have the money to support me, please come back."<
/p>
Well, isn't this the same as when Yuzhu's deskmate spent 150,000 yuan in sponsorship every year to be eligible to study in a national key middle school?
Yuzhu understood that the reason why He Zichang deliberately did not mention it was because he was afraid that he would take advantage of the Tong family's influence and cause trouble in the Xuezheng Yamen.
One thousand taels of silver is definitely not a small amount for ordinary small landowners. However, such a small amount of money is really not in Yuzhu's eyes.
When Yuzhu went south this time, Li Si'er was afraid that his son would suffer, so in addition to the money he gave him openly, he also secretly stuffed a lot of banknotes.
"Wujiang, bring me two thousand taels of silver notes." Yuzhu understood completely. Both He Zichang and the mountain chief regarded him as an ignorant and ignorant playboy.
If Yuzhu is willing to give money, and the money collected can be used to subsidize the education seeds of poor families, the academy will definitely gain fame and profit in the end.
If Yuzhu is reluctant to sponsor, or has no money to sponsor, then it’s no wonder the academy doesn’t accept him.
It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone!
Soon, Wu Jiang held twenty 100-tael silver notes in front of the mountain leader with both hands.
Yuzhu said with a smile: "There are two thousand taels in total, one thousand taels of which are financial aid for the students. The other one thousand taels can be regarded as a little kindness from the students. Please ask the mountain chief to help those talented scholars." p>
"Eh." The mountain chief looked at Yuzhu in surprise. Weird things happen every year, especially this year. Could it be that there is someone with a sick mind?
Yuzhu smiled slightly and said: "Supporting scholars to make progress is what they want!"
"I am Fuping Li Yindu, you can just call the mountain chief."
When Yuzhu heard this, he said, "Wow, I dare to love Li Yindu, who is one of the "Three Lis of Guanzhong". He quickly saluted and said, "Meet my uncle."
(ps, please vote for recommendation, Yuzhu wishes you all the best.)
***The author has something to say***
To be honest, writing about Tatar affairs was just a hobby and I had no hope of making money.
However, instead of being a hit, this book has become very popular. Yuzhu bursts into tears with gratitude. Thank you all brothers and sisters for your support. I wish you all a thousand blessings and blessings!
Make some necessary explanations for some controversies in this book.
1. This book is based on historical records. There are more than 90% real people and deeds, but only 10% are changed according to the needs of the plot. To be honest, this is not easy, because there are a huge amount of historical materials that need to be screened and selected.
It’s really difficult to string them together with stories.
The customs and habits, social conditions and historical background in this book can withstand the party's research.
2. Regarding the part about soaking the pig cage, some people say it is too poisonous, so let me spoil it in advance.
It is impossible for Yuzhu to be a gentleman, let alone an important minister with military power without any stain. You must know that under the historical background of the Qing Dynasty, a gentleman with absolutely nothing to grasp, even a bannerman, is impossible to be defeated by the emperor.
Those who truly trust.
Longkodo, Yuzhu's biological father, stole his father-in-law's concubine and had a bad reputation, but he was still promoted as the admiral of the Nine Sects. It can be seen that Kangxi was afraid that the important ministers would not have pigtails to catch.
Yuzhu has only two choices if he wants to tarnish his reputation: greedy for money or lustful. The answer should be self-explanatory, right?
3. Those who abuse are all in vain. With Yuzhu’s experience and mind, he just treats it as a breeze blowing on his face and doesn’t care.
