Chapter 17: Overloaded

A good natural alcohol, the wind is light.

Qin Bingzhong closed his eyes, the taste of wine echoed in his mouth, and after a few breaths, he opened his eyes.

"This wine is no less than the fragrance of Tianxiang!"

Fu Xiaoguan's heart finally landed, he hadn't drunk Tianxiang, but he had heard that the wine thing could not be listened to, but only tasted, so although he was a little sure of his wine, it was not until this moment that he really put his mind at ease.

Dong Shulan also breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly remembered what she was worried about, and her face turned slightly red.

"What is the price of adding incense?" Fu Xiaoguan asked.

"One two hundred wen, how much are you going to sell this wine?"

"One, two, three hundred!" Fu Xiaoguan stretched out three fingers, Qin Bingzhong was startled, and Dong Shulan was also surprised.

"You...... Can it be sold? Qin Bingzhong asked suspiciously.

"Of course, Tianxiang wine is priceless, I don't have much alcohol this day, and the other is the reason why I came to you to be old, this wine is still the last finishing touch, you must be old."

Dong Shulan poured tea and handed it over, Qin Bingzhong laughed and said, "You want me to help you preach?" ”

"It's not very important to preach, I'm here to ask you for a few words."

"What word?"

"Xishan Tianol, Xishan Xiangquan and rare wine."

"Nothing else? I can actually help you preach it. ”

"There's really nothing else, of course I can't ask for anything else if you can help me preach it, but it's these words that are more important."

Qin Bingzhong stroked his long beard lightly, nodded, and Xiaoqi went to the study and took pens, ink, paper, and inkstones.

"Small seal, hmm...... It's just that big. Fu Xiaoguan made a gesture on the paper, this is a very small word, of course, for the contemporary Confucian Qin Bingzhong, this is naturally not a thing.

Soon, these words fell on the paper, and Fu Xiaoguan held the paper in his hand and blew it carefully, which was extremely precious.

"What are you trying to do with such a small word?" Qin Bingzhong asked curiously.

"I'm going to rub it on this bottle and glass...... Old Qin, from now on, your words will be one with my wine. ”

"Hahaha, you kid is very calculating."

Fu Xiaoguan's wine, coupled with the endorsement of the contemporary Confucian Qin Bingzhong, Dong Shulan's eyes lit up, such a match, with a little publicity, I am afraid that his wine can really be sold for 300 Wen.

Ask how sad the literati in the world are, and they will go to the Qinglou after drinking two taels...... When the literati of Linjiang get together in the future, it is foreseeable that except for his wine, nothing else will be on the table.

No wonder he dared to sell three hundred wen a tael, which would kill I don't know how many literati.

"This is really taking advantage of Qin Lao, in this way, every month from now on, Yu Fuji will provide Qin Lao with three catties of fragrant springs and two catties of celestial alcohol for free...... Old Qin, don't refuse, this is the kid's heart. ”

"The old man is not short of money."

"It's not a matter of money, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. Old Qin, you have done me such a great favor, and you are not short of food, so this is the wine I can get my hands on now. Anyway, I'll send it to you in the future, as for how you deal with it, that's your business, Old Qin. ”

Qin Bingzhong smiled and shook his head, then take it.

This kid is sophisticated, and the ideas in his head are wonderful, why was he like that before?

Qin Bingzhong also couldn't reconcile the Fu Xiaoguan in front of him with the Fu Xiaoguan he had heard before, if he had to find a reason, it could only be what Dong Shulan said the day before yesterday, once he had an epiphany, it was like a different person.

In that case, it is only right to lead him into the right path.

So Qin Bingzhong said slowly: "Little official, why do you think people in the world respect reading? ”

Fu Xiaoguan was drinking tea, and he almost choked when he heard it.

"This ......"

If you answer according to Fu Xiaoguan's heart, he will immediately say that of course studying is to be an official, and of course being an official is to accumulate money, but now that he has a lot of money, then he doesn't need to be an official, and of course he doesn't need to study if he doesn't need to be an official.

But he didn't say it, because sitting opposite him was the great Confucian of the dynasty, the leader of the literati, and if he said that, he was afraid that he would be beaten out by Qin Bingzhong immediately.

So he thought of a sentence and replied cautiously:

The boy thought it was ...... Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations. ”

Rumble......!

Of course, there was no explosion here, but Fu Xiaoguan's words were undoubtedly a shocking explosion in the ears of Qin Bingzhong and Dong Shulan!

The Yu Dynasty had the study of Confucius and Mencius, which was also called Confucianism, but this sentence had not yet been born in the Yu Dynasty.

In the former world, this sentence of lofty ambition has endured for a long time in history and has become the common goal of countless intellectuals, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the avenue of reading.

However, in the Yu Dynasty, although there were also many scholars who studied the way of Confucius and Mencius, and put forward various views on what reading should be, none of them were as deafening as the words of Fu Xiaoguan at this moment.

Time seems to have stopped here.

Qin Bingzhong's hand pinched his long beard, his mouth opened slightly, and his eyes looked at Fu Xiaoguan, but he didn't focus on Fu Xiaoguan's body.

Dong Shulan put the cup to her lips, her mouth was slightly flushed, but she didn't drink it, only the heat in the cup fluttered like mist, blurring her face in the dim light, but her eyes were as bright as stars.

Fu Xiaoguan was very nervous, he really hadn't read the Four Books and Five Classics, and he hadn't read that kind of book seriously when he came to this world, he thought that this sentence had spread in this world, but now look at the situation...... Something doesn't seem good.

"This ...... Xiao Sheng just said casually, Old Qin, you smiled. ”

Qin Bingzhong didn't smile at all, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his gaze finally retracted, he stood up, put his hands behind his back, and paced slowly in the courtyard, muttering that sentence in his mouth.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!"

“……”

Dong Shulan also came to her senses, she put down the teacup, and looked at Fu Xiaoguan, her eyes were tender.

Qin Bingzhong suddenly sighed: "The old man has been pursuing the way of reading, and he is often confused, what do I and other scholars study?" The old man used to think that reading was for the sake of sensibility, for the purpose of serving the country with what he had learned all his life, and for the inheritance of culture......"

"After listening to Xiaoyou's words tonight, I understood...... The old man's books for so many years have been read in vain, and all the books read by people in the world have been read in vain. ”

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for everything...... This is the most noble goal that a reader should have! ”

"Xiaoyou's words, when you enter the holy school, point out the direction for us and other readers, please Xiaoyou, worship by the old man, for the world's readers!"

Qin Bingzhong said, and really bowed respectfully to Fu Xiaoguan.

Of course, Fu Xiaoguan couldn't stand it and didn't dare to stand it, he jumped up, dodged it, and hugged Qin Lao with a wry smile on his face.

"Old Qin, you are tormenting me, I am a junior, I said nonsense casually, don't take it to heart."

Qin Bingzhong stood solemnly, his expression was as if he were talking, "How can this be nonsense?" This is the road to reading! When we enter the holy school and promote it in the world, we should set up a bright light for our scholars to set up a great ambition! ”

"There is no elder or younger, and those who reach are the first. Since then, I will call you a little friend, if you can afford me Qin Bingzhong, then call me an old brother...... Luckily? ”

Fu Xiaoguan was dumbfounded on the spot, looking embarrassed, "This ...... It's not appropriate. ”

Qin Bingzhong patted Fu Xiaoguan's shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother, this is my brother, I took advantage of you." Saying that, he took a deep breath and said, "I heard my brother's words tonight, and my brother's thoughts over the years suddenly became clear......"

As he spoke, he turned his head to look behind him and shouted: "Congratulations, ask the kitchen to make a few small dishes, and bring the incense from the jar in my study." ”

Someone answered in the distance, and Fu Xiaoguan looked at that place, but there was no one in sight.

"Hehe, the guard my son sent to me. Tonight, let's not get drunk and go home! ”

……

A few stacks of side dishes with wine came up, and Dong Shulan twisted the pot to pour wine, which was to add fragrance.

"I have always been reluctant to drink this wine, but in the future, I don't have to hide it anymore, come and come, drink this cup together, one is for Shulan, and the other is for me to get a confidant, cheers!"

Dong Shulan looked at Fu Xiaoguan with a smile, raised the wine glass in her hand, and drank it in one gulp.

Fu Xiaoguan is not hypocritical, and he is calm.

After three glasses of wine, Qin Bingzhong spoke, and he said: "Brother, the way of doing business is a small way after all, and your Fu family is not short of silver, I think you should go to the exam." ”

Fu Xiaoguan was most afraid of this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother, you don't know me...... I'm a person, I was originally a scourge in Linjiang, don't look at me like this, I know how ridiculous I used to be. Later, I met Miss Dong, which woke me up, but I know very well how many catties I have, and occasionally I have the inspiration to write poetry, but I really can't do scientific research. ”

Dong Shulan asked: "Why are you so arrogant? ”

"This is really not presumptuous, let me tell you this, I haven't read much of the Four Books and Five Classics, and the other is my handwriting, which you have seen, just this handwriting, the examiner will brush me off. Therefore, people are self-aware, and I may be able to do business, but I can't go through the imperial examination. ”

Qin Bingzhong and Dong Shulan glanced at each other, and the two pondered for a moment, but they understood what Fu Xiaoguan said.

"There are thousands of avenues in the world, but it is not a matter of studying. I know the intentions of the two of you, there are many people who read in this world, and I am not one of them. I thought about being a carefree little landlord, without the chaos of silk and bamboo, and without the labor of the case, so I just wanted peace and wealth. ”

This is Fu Xiaoguan's true thoughts in his heart, a few years later, when Qin Bingzhong was dying, he left such a sentence: Is the current situation creating heroes, or heroes creating the current situation?

No one can answer,
