Chapter Seventy-Two: Accept One More Disciple

Wang Youzhen stood in the distance and quietly looked at the Mao Society, staring at the time when there was half a burnt incense, and his mood was agitated.

This is the Mao Society.

The first school dedicated to the study of Taizu's thoughts.

With these poor scholars, even if he Wang Youzhen is killed today, Taizu's thought will take root in the Ming Dynasty and have a great and far-reaching impact on the last dynasty of the Han family.

Wang Youzhen looked at the simple fence yard and the wooden board that was so simple that it could not be called a plaque, and inexplicably had hope and a lot of confidence.

He turned around and left the place, heading to the thatched huts and fence yards to the south.

A summary of the Caokou incident in the past few months.

Wang Youzhen walked back to his fence courtyard, and before he could open the firewood door and walk in, he saw his disciple Jiao Miao picking up two wooden buckets of water and watering the bamboo in front of the study window of the thatched house.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of his mentor Wang Youzhen coming, and he showed a stiff smile.

Wang Youzhen smiled and was about to walk in, when there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him and he looked back.

The second uncle, Wang Yanren, wore a decent cotton cloth short and walked in the direction of Wang Youzhen.

He smiled generously and said, "Eldest son, the second uncle's letters to those horse gangs and maritime merchants have finally been replied to." ”

"There was also a horse gang coming over this time and brought a boy named Bo Jue."

Bo Jue?

Wang Youzhen hurriedly asked: "Second uncle, where is this Bo Jue from?" ”

Wang Yanren had long known that Twelve was going to ask about this, and knew that he just wanted to determine whether this Bo Jue was the person he was looking for.

He replied affirmatively: "A native of Changzhou, Suzhou Prefecture." ”

Wang Youzhen learned that this Bo Jue was from Changzhou, Suzhou Prefecture, and was worried that this young man was not the Bo Jue in history, so he immediately reduced more than half.

Next, as long as you take out a test paper to test your intelligence, you can completely determine whether this Bo Jue is the Bo Jue in history or not.

Wang Youzhen was not in the mood to summarize, and immediately followed the second uncle to Yanchi Village.

Back at his home in Yanchi Village, Wang Youzhen pushed open the door and walked in, and a young man who looked very thin and had a sallow face stood up.

The thin boy didn't know who the person in front of him was, but judging from the cotton shirt that the other party didn't wear a patch, his identity must be very noble.

Wang Yanren, who came over, glanced at Bo Jue and explained: "This is the eldest grandson of the royal family who is looking for you." ”

When Bo Jue heard that this was the grandson of Wang Yuanwai, he hurriedly bowed.

Wang Youzhen didn't say a word of nonsense, walked to the room where he lived, and took out a piece of mulberry paper and pen and ink.

Wang Youzhen beckoned, and the young man walked into the hall and handed him the mulberry paper and pen and ink: "Come, do this test, although my family is relatively poor, I still have read some books." ”

Bo Jue didn't understand what Wang Youzhen meant, so he respectfully took the mulberry paper and pen and ink, and began to write on the mulberry paper.

After a stick of incense, this Bo Jue took a little longer than the eldest disciple, but it was not much worse, so he handed over the good test to Wang Youzhen.

Wang Youzhen took this test and corrected it seriously.

Little by little, the hours passed.

Due to the long-term gathering of energy, Wang Youzhen could not help but frown.

When he saw the final score of ninety-six, his brow immediately relaxed.

The identity of this Bo Jue is undoubtedly confirmed, he is one of the scientific and technological talents who exploded in the late Ming Dynasty, and Bo Jue, a mechanical expert in the late Ming Dynasty with the intelligence of world-class scientists.

A poor person who is rarely recorded in the history books because of various strange skills and tricks made by machinery.

Inside the hall.

Wang Youzhen looked at Bo Jue who was sitting on the bench, without the restraint and stiffness of the eldest disciple when he first saw him.

It can't be said that the scholarly family has an extraordinary bearing, but it is also sitting there squarely.

Wang Youzhen suddenly asked: "Are you willing to worship me as a teacher?" ”

Bo Jue was silent for a moment, and then asked rhetorically: "Can you eat enough?" ”

In these days, apprenticeship is a big deal.

It not only determines the fate of the disciple's life, but also determines the fate of the disciple's entire family.

If the worship teacher has a bad character, or even does a lot of evil, it is very likely that the disciple will be implicated by the teacher in the end.

As long as you have read some poetry books, you are basically cautious when you encounter the kind of gentleman who takes the initiative to ask for disciples.

Bo Jue only asked if he could eat enough.

Wang Yanren, who had been following him, was worried that his nephew would misunderstand, so he immediately helped Bo Jue explain.

He also learned these words from the caravan, and he was willing to say a few words for this unknown Bo Jue, mainly because this Bo Jue's family background was very pitiful.

Bo Jue is very young, thirteen or fourteen years old, but he is very young and old, and he is very diligent and hardworking.

It's because he's been through so much.

Bo Jue's father is paralyzed in bed, his mother is insane, and he has three younger sisters to raise.

For so many years, one person has carried all the burdens of the family.

In addition, his father had read a lot of books back then, and his status in the ancestral hall was not low.

Since he fell off the list, those ancestral hall fellows who were jealous of his status in the past have fallen into the ground, not only do they not have the slightest intention of helping, but they are not less sneering.

If it weren't for the fact that the neighbors couldn't stand it, his family would all starve to death.

Wang Youzhen only knew from the words in the history books that Bo Jue was born poor, and finally died because of poverty.

But he never thought that Bo Jue's home would be so miserable.

Wang Youzhen walked over, rubbed Bo Jue's head, and said gently: "Not only can you eat alone, but the whole family can be fed." ”

When Bo Jue heard a sentence that the whole family could be fed, he didn't say a word, and knelt directly on the ground.

solemnly kowtowed three times: "Bo Jue, knock to see the teacher!" ”

The large sum of money that Wang Youzhen sprinkled finally played a role, and once again accepted a scientific and technological talent who had a blowout in the late Ming Dynasty.

He was in a good mood, but he didn't celebrate.

Wang Youzhen helped up Bo Jue, who was kneeling on the ground, and smiled gently: "Let's go, I'll take you to buy some cotton cloth for the teacher first." ”

The water-powered weaving factory in Yanchi Village produces cotton cloth, and Wang Youjun, as the behind-the-scenes owner of the water-powered weaving factory, also has to pay silver when he takes away the cotton cloth.

Wang Youzhen bought a total of three cotton cloths and walked back home with Bo Jue.

Bo Jue's family temporarily lived in Wang Youzhen's house, and Wang Youzhen's parents temporarily lived in the house of his second uncle Wang Yanren.

Wang Youzhen handed over the three pieces of cotton cloth to Bo Jue, and instructed: "This one is to make your right clothes, this one is to make clothes for your three sisters, and this one is to make a new dress for your father and mother." ”

Bo Jue took the three cotton cloths one by one and listened to the teacher's chattering words.

Somehow.

Suddenly began to cry silently.
