After walking for almost a month, Xu Jing finally returned.

He was followed by a dozen wagons, each loaded with goods.

As soon as he saw Xie Zhi, Xu Jing shouted excitedly: "Zhixian, I came back in Xia, and I bought a whole ten carts of skins at a very low price in the land of Wuliangha, and it is about to enter winter, and these skins can be sold to make a big price." ”

At the beginning, when Xie Zhi handed over this matter to Xu Jing, he didn't want to, and after only one trip, he found the fun?

Xie Zhi walked around a few carriages and said, "These skins are all high-quality goods, wait a little longer, and when the weather starts to get cold, then start selling." ”

At this time, it is just beginning to fall and it is obviously not wise to start selling furs that can only be used in winter.

Xu Jing nodded and replied: "Well, I'm going to go on another trip and collect some back, in the land of Uliangha, there is too much backlog of these things..."

Speaking of these things, Xu Jing's eyes lit up a little.

It's only been a month since the copper smell corroded like this? Is this still the same scholar who was in high school?

Xie Zhi pulled up a smile and responded: "It's hard work, these furs will be processed again, made into finished products and then sold, and the profits will be higher, although it is not yet winter, and it is not far from the frost, it is time to start preparing." ”

Xu Jing paused, smiled happily, and said, "Yes, why didn't you think of it?" Immediately go find someone to catch up with the system..."

Then Xu Jingzhi's words, Xie Zhi said: "You can recruit women in the county to do it, so that you can also fill in some silver for each family to fill in the family, which is also a good thing." ”

The idea of a rich county and a country, Xie Zhike has not forgotten.

Now each family only has some land, just enough to support and barely make ends meet, and if they want to be rich, they must not only have food but also money.

Xu Jing followed Xie Zhi to the clouds, wasn't it just for Xie Zhi's ambition?

Xu Jing did not refute Xie Zhi's proposal, and replied: "Okay, why don't you find a tailor to help guide you?" ”

Thinking about it, Xie Zhi replied: "If you look for it, you can find one, and having a tailor can also better ensure the quality." ”

After finalizing these, Xu Jing recruited women from the county.

Even if ordinary women don't know how to embroider women's red, they are extremely skilled in sewing and mending, and the needlework is not too bad.

Knowing this, and with some pointers, it's not too difficult to sew some ready-to-wear garments out of fur.

After all, there was a salary, and Xu Jingcai began to recruit, and there were fifty or sixty women who came to apply.

After the examination of no one for needlework, twenty or thirty people remained.

The twenty or thirty women had to sew clothes in the fur workshop during the day, and they had to go home and cook their meals.

Xu Jing saw that these women were working hard and delaying their work, so he gave an order to allow these women to take their furs home and sew them.

In this way, it is much more convenient for those women.

The women's mouths were closed with joy.

"Mr. Xu, the ready-to-wear clothes handed over by the old man will definitely satisfy Mr. Xu."

"yes, yes..."

"Mr. Xu, can there be a deadline for making these ready-to-wear garments?"

Xu Jing is also a scholar, he has no official position, and he cannot be commensurate with his official position, so he is commensurate with a noble name and a gentleman.

In response to the woman's inquiry, Xu Jing smiled slightly and replied: "The time limit is not a good one, and the work is calculated by piece, and the more you do, the more you will be paid, and the less you do, the less you will take, just don't be ignorant." ”

Xu Jing is also joking when he says this, which family holds how many skins and how many ready-to-wear clothes are all recorded, and there is no possibility at all.

Besides, Xu Jing is also representing the county government, even if they have the opportunity, they have to have the courage to do it.

How can the things of the government be so easy to take?

After a few women laughed, they said a year older: "How can it, Mr. Xu has found this job for me, how can I do such a thing again?" You say, yes? ”

The few people around nodded in agreement, and replied, "Yes, how can it!" ”

Xu Jing didn't say more, and said: "When you receive the fur, you can rely on your own ability, there is only one requirement under the following, the finished product must be the best, if there is any substandard, it will be deducted from the salary." ”

If there are no rules and standards, the quality of the garment cannot be guaranteed.

......

When Xu Jing was still busy with these things, Tang Yin had already invited Cheng Minzheng on his side.

Knowing that Cheng Minzheng was coming, Xie Zhi ordered the Two Wolf Mountain Academy, which had not yet been completely completed, to clean up the house in advance.

Xie Zhi took He Liang to the city gate early in the morning to greet him.

In that spring incident, although Cheng Minzheng met Tang Yin and Xu Jing in advance, he did not leak the exam questions.

Now Cheng Minzheng has resigned and returned to his hometown, showing the iron backbone of the literati, and he has not dropped the price among the scholars in the world, and the town is also okay.

Xie Zhi arrived early, and he and He Liang sat under the city gate tower drinking the inferior tea of the city guards.

These errand guards are all the original county office's team, and these errand officers will take some silver from the merchants on weekdays, but they can't get in touch with Yang Tai and those above in the original county office, so naturally they won't participate in their affairs.

Even so, Xie Zhi can't dismiss all these people together.

After dismissing them, Xie Zhi could no longer find a suitable replacement.

"Zhixian, who is that gentleman? Need to know that the county is waiting here so early in the morning? The year-old officer asked.

Xie Zhi pulled a smile and said, "It is the gentleman invited by this county for the Two Wolf Mountain Academy, and Mr. Cheng was the chief examiner of the county's Chunqiu, and he can be regarded as the county's teacher." ”

In the cheeks of the old errand full of ravines, a simple smile hung up, and he asked, "Is there a Mr. in the Two Wolf Mountain Academy?" What are the requirements for studying at Two Wolf Mountain Academy? ”

Xie Zhi put down the tea bowl and asked, "Do you have any children who want to go?" ”

The old officer smiled embarrassedly and said: "The villain's grandson is studying in the school in Nancheng, and the gentleman said that he has good bones, and the villain thinks that the villain's family may be the ancestral tomb of the smoke, maybe he can really produce a jinshi master..."

In Xie Zhixin's newly opened school, the students are all newly enlightened children.

Just enlightened and have such great ambitions?

Xie Zhi smiled and asked, "I don't know how old your grandson is?" ”

The old officer flipped his palm and replied, "Ten years old." ”

Ten years old is actually too late to start the world.

However, if you really have this talent, it is not impossible to step into the official career.

Xie Zhi smiled slightly and said, "If your grandson can take Tongsheng, the county will let him go to the Two Wolves Mountain to study for free." ”

In fact, everyone reads and gets ahead, but there are a few people who can enter the court as officials.

The officials themselves are the ones who govern the people, and they are all officials, and whoever is the one who is governed.

It wasn't until midmorning that a carriage appeared in the distance.

Although this carriage is ordinary, it is somewhat conspicuous among the few pedestrians, and there is Tang Yin riding a horse next to this carriage.

"Here, young master..."He Liang shouted.

Xie Zhi didn't answer, got up and waited at the city gate.

After a moment's effort, Tang Yin led the carriage to arrive, took the lead from the horse, bowed his hand to Xie Zhi, and said, "Zhixian, Mr. Cheng is here." ”

Tang Yin sent a letter to Xie Zhi as early as when he was about to reach the realm of Yunzhong.

Otherwise, how could Xie Zhi be waiting at the city gate early this morning.

Before Tang Yin spoke to Xie Zhi, Cheng Minzheng in the carriage had already gotten out of the carriage with the support of his entourage, "Master, slow down." ”

After Cheng Minzheng got out of the carriage, Xie Zhi walked over quickly, saluted and shouted, "Student Xie Zhi to meet the teacher." ”

Cheng Minzheng waved his hand and said, "The seat master is not counted." ”

Xie Zhi pulled up a smile and said: "One day for the teacher for life as a father, one day for the teacher, a lifetime as a teacher, thank you for being able to come to this poor and remote place, the student has ordered people to clean up the room in the academy, the county government has also prepared wine and food, please go to the county government first, the student for Mr. to pick up the wind and wash the dust Bo'an and Heng's father today know that the master is coming, and deliberately set aside free time." ”

Cheng Minzheng's face was majestic, and he responded: "Well, good..."

Xie Zhi, as the champion of the new department, can be regarded as a clear stream among the people who are willing to go to this poor and remote place to be a county commander.

Whether it is Xie Zhi's character or talent, Cheng Minzheng is quite appreciative.

This is also the reason why he is willing to come to a small academy with a little name.

......

At noon, Xu Jing came first, and after greeting Cheng Minzheng, Wang Shouren and Zhu Houzhao arrived.

Zhu Houzhao also followed Emperor Hongzhi to participate in the banquet, and it is impossible for Cheng Minzheng not to see Zhu Houzhao.

Seeing Zhu Houzhao, Cheng Minzheng looked surprised, and got up to salute.

Since there were still handymen serving tea in the field, Zhu Houzhao jumped to Cheng Minzheng's side in a few steps, grabbed Cheng Minzheng's hand, and shouted: "Master Cheng, you are here..."

Cheng Minzheng also sensed something, but he didn't have to be courteous.

Xie Zhi waved his hand away and sent away the miscellaneous servants, saying, "You all go out..."

After those miscellaneous servants went out, He Liang said consciously: "Young master, the villain goes outside to guard..."

As soon as He Liang left, Gu Dayong and Zhang Yong also retreated.

There are only people left in the room who know Zhu Houzhao's identity, and before Cheng Minzheng can salute, Zhu Houzhao said: "Master Cheng doesn't have to be polite, this palace is just Zhu Shou here, just a small master, don't expose the identity of this palace, this palace is troublesome." ”

When Zhu Houzhao was puzzled, Xie Zhi said at the right time: "It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, the student used to be accompanied by His Royal Highness, and when he went out to be an official, he raised this issue with His Majesty, and after His Majesty weighed it, he should make up the matter." ”

Cheng Minzheng was not moved by Xie Zhi's words, his face was sad, and he shouted: "As the prince of the country, how can the prince of the East Palace stay away from the palace, isn't this Longyou Shoal..."

On the basis of this point of view, don't expect Xie Zhi to be able to convince Cheng Minzheng at all.

Xie Zhi had to change his angle and said: "The student is still young after all, but he didn't expect the situation in this regard, the student just felt that His Royal Highness, as the prince, should know the suffering of the people and rub the people's feelings, so that he will not indiscriminately levy harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes.

After Xie Zhi flickered for a while, Cheng Minzheng no longer bothered about the reason why Zhu Houzhao was here, but said: "Is the safety of His Highness guaranteed?" ”

Without waiting for Xie Zhi to answer, Zhu Houzhao immediately said: "Master Cheng, rest assured, they can all take care of the safety of the palace, and the palace can also protect itself!" ”

That's the end of the matter.
