"Amitabha, I just went out for a day, and so many things happened. It's really a blessing from Bodhisattva. Otherwise, how could Mr. Ge stand up to support Ashou..."
Early in the morning, Zhang Shou was awakened by Wu's nagging in the yard.
Although he had stayed up all night the day before, he was young after all. After a good sleep, he finally regained his energy. After getting up, washing and changing clothes, he opened the door and went out. Only then did he learn from Wu that Zhu Ying had rushed there early in the morning.
She urged Zhu Hong to take people to escort Zhu Yu to the Shuntian Mansion Office in the capital, while she herself took Zhan Jin and Liu Yin to the village to investigate.
In the original words of the eldest lady as reported by Wu - "I lent the money, and I have to see if it is being spent wisely. Just like my father often goes down to check on military pay expenses, I have to see if the money is being spent wisely.
I have spent the money on renovating the house. Only when I can spend the money well can I give the next one!"
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Wu added with a smile: "Yingying went out holding the umbrella you gave her. She also asked me to tell you that she will no longer meddle in Cui Yunjian's affairs.
I believe you can convince those guys."
After getting along with Zhu Ying day and night these days, Zhang Shou had to admit that the well-born young lady did have many advantages that were beyond his expectation. However, Wu's obvious matchmaking made him feel a little headache, so he quickly made an excuse to go to Cuiyun.
I took the time to take a look, and after the couple finished breakfast, they went out in a dignified manner.
After entering the bamboo forest and seeing the cute panda screen wall from a distance, Zhang Shou realized that someone was waiting here. As soon as he saw him, the person rushed over with a quick pace that was incompatible with his stature. It was not Lu Sanlang.
Who else?
Before he could even stand still, Lu Sanlang spoke breathlessly: "Little sir, I have something to discuss with you..."
Before Lu Sanlang could finish his words, Zhang Shou interrupted him with a smile: "I also have something to tell you. I didn't originally expect to accept so many people. I planned for most of you to stay for a few days.
Just go back. Looking at the current situation, everyone will not return to Beijing for a while. In this case, I am wondering if this place should be renovated?"
Lu Sanlang suddenly beamed with joy: "Oh, this is what I thought of! Since this was once the hermitage of Master Ge, he might come back to stay for a few days, and it needs to be renovated.
.Don’t worry, leave all this matter to me, and everyone will definitely be willing to contribute!”
If he continues to live like this, he and everyone else will die, truly dying of hunger and cold!
Zhang Shou didn't need to think about it to know what Lu Sanlang's purpose was in taking this job, but it was a good thing for him to save worry and effort. He nodded readily and said: "In that case, I'll leave this matter to you.
.By the way, you should remember that I told everyone in public the day before yesterday that you are very talented in arithmetic."
Lu Sanlang was able to wait here today not because the other dandy boys ignored Mr. Zhang Shou, but because... he was cunning and tried his best to hold everyone back early in the morning.
, and then he waited here for at least three quarters of an hour! At this moment, he thought that Zhang Shou had seen through his other purpose of waiting, and he suddenly felt horrified.
No wonder Zhang Shou, who was born in the countryside, was engaged to Zhu Ying, and was able to get Zhu Ying to let go of her arrogance and help him act in a show. He was even Ge Yong's close disciple. This ability to see into people's hearts is amazing!
He hesitated for a moment, thinking about all the ugly things he had done to others, so he simply admitted it as a bachelor.
"To be honest, sir, I have read the Nine Chapters on Arithmetic a long time ago. In fact, it is not just the Nine Chapters on Arithmetic. I have actually read all the ten books on arithmetic, excluding those that have been lost and those that pretend to be the names of previous sages. Of course, not every one of them is
Can understand."
"However, after Senior Brother Qi taught me the ideas for solving problems, I begged him to take off all the bamboo signs in front of each bamboo house and let me look at them. As long as I master the ideas, I think I can probably do it.
"
"So, I want to ask the little gentleman, is it true that you said the night before yesterday that you were willing to teach me all your arithmetic?"
As Lu Sanlang said this, he stared at Zhang Shou. He thought that the other party might be prevaricating and then set up a series of difficult tests. But what he didn't expect was that Zhang Shou and him looked at each other.
After a while, he finally smiled.
"If you want me to teach you everything, of course that's absolutely fine. Go to Qi Liang and ask him to lend you the textbooks and exercise books he has accumulated over the past three years to copy them. But I have something to say first.
Regardless of whether it’s exercises or exercises, all the numbers used are those from overseas.”
"That's just right. I like to use this kind of numbers. It's much easier than calculating chips. It's simple and clear! Little Sir, I'm going to find Senior Brother Qi right now!"
Seeing Lu Sanlang beaming with joy, cupping his hands and running away, Zhang Shou thought about the information that Zhu Ying had just said about Lu Zhutou without thinking, and he felt that he was a little more accurate about Lu Sanlang's context.
He has a strong talent in arithmetic and likes to use Arabic numerals instead of calculating chips... In this ancient society, since those who fit these two characteristics are not officials who are a bit off the talent skill tree, there are only two types of people.
Accountant, or... merchant!
The role of accountant is obviously not suitable for an official like Lu Sanlang. In this case, this guy is probably doing business secretly!
As for Lu Sanlang's self-confidence in arithmetic, hehehe, one of the most disappointing subjects in the world includes mathematics!
When Zhang Shou thoughtfully walked around the panda screen wall, a person suddenly appeared next to him. He was caught off guard and jumped back quickly. After he stood firm, he saw clearly that it was Zhang Chen with a gloomy expression.
He calmed down immediately.
"Did you hear what Lu Sanlang and I just said?"
"Humph." Thinking that no one else was around, Zhang Chen returned to his unruly nature. He stared at Zhang Shou with a somewhat unkind look, but after a long mental struggle, he finally didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only say something harsh.
Bangbang said, "It's really a good idea to have Zhu Ying act for you and Mr. Ge to support you. However, I hope you don't forget that other people's power belongs to others."
"Haha, thank you for reminding me." Zhang Shou smiled calmly, as if he really didn't care, "As the eldest son, you will be the Duke of Qin for sure in the future, but you don't want to be a rich idler, but hope to make a difference. Otherwise, you
Nor will anyone report it, saying that the servants of the Marquis of Tai'an colluded with the Tianjin Maritime Patrol Department to secretly rob innocent merchant ships and bring justice to those who suffered."
"How did you know!" Zhang Chen was shocked and angry, and his voice suddenly became sharp, "Are you spying on me?"
Zhang Shou suddenly felt angry and funny: "Shouldn't you just pretend to be confused or deny it?"
Seeing that Zhang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then showed an extremely annoyed expression, he smiled and said: "I have never left this village, how can I spy on you! In order to please Miss Zhu, naturally someone wanted to please me.
Sir, come in front of me and poke someone else's knife. How can I confirm whether it is true or false? Your reaction just now is simply self-inflicted."
Without looking at Zhang Chen's even more ugly face, Zhang Shou flicked the corner of his clothes, passed Zhang Chen and continued to walk towards Cuiyun Room. He said without looking back: "Actually, I really want to say that you reported it so righteously.
You have a great sense of justice, but since it has reached my ears, it means it is not a secret. In this case, not only will some people hate you, but some will also hate your father, and your carelessness may implicate him."
Zhang Chen felt so suffocated that he almost wanted to vomit blood.
After all, someone else's power belongs to someone else...even if that someone else is his father!
Zhang Shou actually used the facts to hit him back with this sentence!
