Du Jun arranged for the four chiefs and his confidants to enter Huangzhou City and live in the city.
As for the huge convoy they led, they could only be placed outside the city.
At this time, in Xinhuangzhou City, due to expansion, the new urban area was also a large construction site. There were sweaty workers everywhere, working enthusiastically, and the scene was exciting.
Although the four masters have seen many such working scenes everywhere, they always feel that this kind of working scene in Huangzhou is more lively.
Immediately afterwards.
Du Jun brought the four masters to the old city. There were already people waiting to greet the four masters and take them into four large courtyards.
Shortly after.
In the hall of the Confucian courtyard.
After Sima Haoran made tea for Peacock: "Master, this is Huangzhou's roasted tea. It's very flavorful. Please taste it!"
Peacock picked up the exquisite Huangzhou tea bowl, looked at the pattern on it and sighed: "Haoran, do you know how much money this tea bowl sells for in the Imperial City?" m.
Sima Haoran shook his head: "These days, my disciple has been teaching urchins in Huangzhou Academy how to read and write. These things are all distributed by the Huangzhou Prince's Palace. I really don't know how much money this tea bowl is worth?"
The peacock said slenderly: "Ninety-nine taels!"
"What?"
Sima Haoran was surprised: "It's so expensive!"
"My disciples usually use this kind of porcelain. I'm afraid there are dozens or hundreds of them in the cupboard!"
"If converted into silver, it's not thousands of taels!"
"yes!"
The peacock sighed quietly: "You are so rich!"
"In the imperial capital, the plaque of Huangzhou Department Store is inscribed by His Majesty, and is blessed by the holy name of King Huangzhou. This tea bowl can be sold for ninety-nine taels."
“Besides, most people can’t buy it yet!”
Sima Haoran blinked: "These tea bowls are so easy to sell, why not just sell them for a hundred taels?"
"Wouldn't it be better to get it together?"
Speaking of this, Peacock sighed again: "Haoran doesn't understand business!"
"Du Yue'er, the purchasing agent of Huangzhou, is really a born businessman. The prices she puts for goods in Huangzhou are usually nine qian, ninety-nine yuan, one or two nine yuan, one or two ninety-nine yuan, nine liang, ninety-nine liang. , nine hundred and ninety-nine taels, the whole number is missing one, which makes the price of the goods look a lot cheaper!"
"When it's full, it overflows; when it's full, it's a loss!"
"The Royal Palace of Huangzhou is really full of talents!"
"King Huangzhou not only has a keen eye for recognizing people, but he is also able to train and employ people. I admire him very much as a teacher!"
Sima Haoran's eyes lit up: "After the disciple comes to Huangzhou, although the prince is busy, as long as he is free, he will convene a meeting of the Huangzhou palace and teach everyone how to behave!"
"So now, when people from Huangzhou Palace go out, they behave like saints!"
"The saint's style..."
Peacock repeated meaningfully, picked up the tea bowl, opened the tea lid, blew gently, and took a sip, filling his mouth with fragrance!
He said with emotion: "Haoran, do you know how much silver a pound of Huangzhou camellia sells for in the imperial capital?"
Sima Haoran stretched out a finger: "Is it also ninety-nine taels of silver?"
Peacock shook his head: "Nine hundred and ninety-nine taels of silver!"
Sima Haoran was shocked!
He took out a jar as thick as his waist from the room: "Every month, Prince Huang's Mansion will send out a jar of tea like this, which weighs about two kilograms!"
The peacock's eyes are red!
"How much have you saved?"
Sima Haoran said weakly: "There should be four more pounds!"
The peacock gritted his teeth and took another sip: "Four kilograms is four thousand taels of silver!"
"The treatment you receive as a teacher in Huangzhou Prince's Palace is really good!"
"Keep it for my master, I will take it with me when I leave!"
Sima Haoran told the truth: "Your Majesty attaches great importance to education and the enlightenment of children in Huangzhou. He treats all the teachers in Huangzhou well!"
"Huangzhou killed two dragons. The disciple came late and was only given a small piece of meat and a ball of dragon blood. After eating it, the disciple felt that his martial arts potential was stronger and his brain seemed to be working better! "
"What?"
The peacock was shocked: "The king of Huangzhou also gave you the dragon meat to eat?"
"It has a price but no market. It's hard to buy even a small piece of it for ten thousand taels of gold!"
"The king of Huangzhou just gave it to you to eat without any conditions?"
"Yes!"
"Not only do we have a share, but everyone who has contributed to Huangzhou also has a share and they all share the food!"
The peacock's eyes were red, his elegant demeanor disappeared, and he gritted his teeth and said: "If I can eat dragon meat as a teacher, I will definitely have the hope of breaking through to the half-step land fairyland!"
"You boy, you are so lucky!"
"To be honest, your treatment is better than that of Weishi, the head of Confucianism and the dean of the Royal Academy. Weishi also wants to come to Huangzhou and become a teacher!"
For no reason, Sima Haoran actually felt a sense of superiority in front of the peacock!
This feeling is so refreshing!
Peacock's eyes were red and he took two sips of tea: "You have been here in Huangzhou Prince's Mansion for so long, tell me about the situation in Huangzhou!"
"yes!"
"Have you ever attended the meeting of Huangzhou Prince's Mansion?"
Sima Haoran answered honestly: "Participate every time!"
The peacock asked with red eyes: "What ambition does King Huangzhou have?"
"What is the current strength of the Huangzhou Palace?"
"What plans does King Huangzhou have now?"
Sima Haoran was silent for a moment and flatly refused to answer: "You can't say it! You can't say it! My disciple won't say it!"
"Asshole!"
Peacock said angrily: "Are you going to disobey me and become your master?"
"You are a disciple of my Confucian school, not a member of Huangzhou Palace!"
"Plop..."
Sima Haoran bent his knees and knelt down and said: "Master, although my disciple is a Confucian, my heart belongs to the Royal Palace of Huangzhou!"
"Master, please punish me!"
Sima Haoran looked stubborn and prepared to accept Confucian family law calmly.
The peacock was stunned and murmured: "The king of Huangzhou's dragon meat is indeed not in vain!"
"The King of Huangzhou treats people like this... If my teacher is treated with such courtesy in Huangzhou King's Mansion, maybe my teacher's heart also belongs to Huangzhou King's Mansion!"
"Get up!"
Peacock had a frustrated expression on his face: "I don't blame you for betraying Confucianism. It's really the king of Huangzhou who has the image of a saint, which is impressive!"
"Haoran, aren't you ready to go back to Confucianism?"
Sima Haoran shook his head: "I won't go back!"
"Why?"
"Because my disciple feels that working with the prince will make him feel more at ease, his thoughts will be clearer, and he always feels that he can accomplish something great!"
"Why......"
This is the third sigh from the peacock: "You are such a stubborn person!"
the other side.
In the Taoist courtyard.
Gu Yue also obediently made Huangzhou tea for Li Si: "Master, please try it!"
Next, Taoist masters and disciples will also communicate...
