Chapter 194: The field in which he excels

"If you go to listen to Yu Xiaozhu's matter, how can you find out on the street? Wouldn't it be rumored to spread all over the city afterwards? ”

This is another elegant restaurant, and all the three boxes on the third floor are set, and then everyone is called to occupy one of them, and after saying that it prevents others from eavesdropping, Zhu Er questioned Zhang Shou angrily. Not only him, but several other people also secretly agreed, but the status of teacher and student has been decided, and Zhu Er, the future second uncle, is undoubtedly more suitable to come forward.

"Because as long as you have been there today, if you don't talk about it on the street, it will spread all over the city tomorrow." Zhang Shou calmly bit into the xiaolongbao full of soup, and then let the soup flow onto the spoon, then tasted the familiar taste of sweetness with relish, and then said unhurriedly, "Rather than others to publicize it, it is better to uncover it yourself." ”

After a pause, he continued: "In this way, everyone can also leave a sincere and honest impression in front of Yingying and the girls of each family. ”

Zhu Er couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "It's still impressive? I heard that we actually went to listen to the fooling around in a place like Yu Xiaozhu, and people must have questioned our conduct. As soon as the words fell, he received a sneering look from Lu Sanlang, and easily understood the meaning - do you Zhu Ergongzi still have character and integrity? You must know that the first time I met you, I was listening to Yu Xiaozhu!

Zhu Er, who was annoyed and angry, immediately counterattacked: "It doesn't matter if I am alone, but of course the reputation of so many of us is!" And Dr. Zhang, your reputation, that's even more important, it's also about the reputation of our Zhao Guogong Mansion! ”

"That's why I came out during the day, not like last time, it's almost night, and I called Zhu Ergongzi to come with you." Zhang Shou didn't raise his head, seeing that Zhang Wu and Lu Sanlang had already started to use chopsticks to sacrifice to the Five Organs Temple without hesitation, Zhang Lu and Zhang Chen also hesitated for a moment to follow, only Zhu Er was still anxious and hesitant, so he continued to say slowly.

"Moreover, among the frequent visitors who listen to Yu Xiaozhu, there are Xie Yuan like Tang Ming, Xie Wanquan, the head of the country, and the official of the imperial court, the senior official of the Jiuqing level, and the local governor. In the final analysis, there is no overnight stay, no overnight, known as the most elegant place in the capital, and it is definitely not the Qinglou Chu Pavilion. We are in the middle of the day, what are we afraid of? ”

"The most important thing is that if you want to stage that play as scheduled, you have to go over to watch the rehearsal from time to time, and you are afraid of people's words today, how will you go in the future?"

Later...... Still going? Even Lu Saburo almost splashed the soup in shock, not to mention the others. But after the initial surprise, a few people looked at me, except for Zhang Chen and Lu Sanlang, whose faces were uncertain, everyone else was secretly happy. Listening to the rain and building a place like this, it is usually not cheap, they can't afford to go at all, but they can go there often in the future?

But Zhang Shou followed up with the words he said, but poured another basin of cold water on their excitement: "Of course, just you go, gossip doesn't matter, if you really linger, it's terrible." When you go, why don't I let Ah Liu follow. ”

Ah Liu followed...... Hell, with that evil star following, who would dare to do anything else?

Zhu Er thought of the scene when Ah Liu dragged him like a dead man for a while, and he shuddered, and he was not interested in going to Tingyu Xiaozhu to see any beauties for a while. In the final analysis, the family education is too strict, and he is originally a thief with a thief's heart and no thief's courage! At that moment, he muttered in a low voice: "Lu Sanpang is already a person who is married, he goes to that kind of place, and he is not afraid of being disliked by the girl of the Liu family?" ”

"So, you go during the lunch break, every seven days, and take up an elective in the afternoon. Among you, there are nobles from the top backgrounds in the capital, and there are also children of eunuchs, who have high vision, and whether they act well or not, of course, you can see at a glance that they are good or bad. If you think it's good, after you turn around and officially start the show, you will naturally not be applauded! ”

Zhang Shou paused for a moment, and then said meaningfully: "To outsiders, you can say that, the flowers are becoming more and more charming...... If you can practice your mind in that kind of place, when you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders in the future, which of you will be fascinated by the beauty of the moment? ”

How can you find such a reason?

Except for Lu Sanlang, a few people looked at me, and most of them were dumbfounded. But Lu Sanlang coughed lightly and said thoughtfully: "Those guys who preach their talents all day long and want to go to the science field can go to listen to Yu Xiaozhu, why can't we go?" I'm not afraid of shadows, so I'll go back and ask to see Liu Shilang, just borrow two followers. ”

Everyone was immediately stunned by Lu Saburo's strange thinking. Is this to bear witness to oneself through the people of the father-in-law's family? After looking at each other for a while, Zhu Er suddenly found that the eyes of others suddenly fell on him. Zhang Lu even smiled and said, "Second Brother Zhu, instead of making Lu Sanpang so troublesome, it is better to ask your wife to send two safe people to go with us!" ”

Between laughter, the table full of wine and food was eaten cleanly. And Zhang Shou knocked lightly on the table, and then said: "When I went out with Wei Nanbo before, Lu Sanlang said the idea to you, don't think that he is in the eyes of money, or just talk. Don't look at this kid's fat head and big ears, he didn't like his father before, in fact, he is not only talented in arithmetic. ”

Squinting at the serious Lu Sanlang, Zhang Shou picked up what he knew, the bookstore opened by Lu Sanlang, and he casually introduced the mode of closing people in a small black house, and Zhu Er and Zhang Chen, Zhang Wu, and Zhang Lu were dumbfounded. And when he avoided Lu Sanlang's dry stock in Listening to the Rain Xiaozhu, and only said that he and Wei Nanbo had a year-old friendship due to fate, the four of them were even more shocked.

Don't look at them as glamorous and wealthy sons and daughters in the eyes of outsiders, but even if they have an extraordinary family background like Zhang Chen and Zhu Er, they are at most only the top of their own circle, and if they want to catch up with their father's circle, they are far from qualified. Now Lu Sanlang, the little fat man who has always been ridiculed, not only secretly owns his own industry, but can also talk to Weinan Bo Zhang Kang?

For a while, Zhang Chen only felt that his pretentiousness in the past was extremely stupid. He glanced at Lu Sanlang with some complications, and it took a long time before he finally regained a little momentum, and snorted lightly: "Lu Sanfat will also make these little fights, what is it!" ”

"It's a small fight, but the seven-story pagoda also has to start from the foundation. Otherwise, Zhang Chen can inherit the Duke of Qin, and what kind of officials can other people here be in the future, it is not good to say. If it goes on like this, just like I said in Cuiyun before, when you get married and split up in the future, how will you and your children and grandchildren live? Wouldn't it be better to be just a steward? ”

Although Zhang Chen was deliberately brought out by Zhang Shou as a counterexample, he didn't feel happy at all - after all, his father's disregard for him had always been a thorn in his heart. Moreover, after inheriting the Duke of Qin, what did he do? Could it be that like my father, he buried himself in the pile of books all day long, and became a civil official?

"So, what does Mr. Xiao mean is that let the twelve rains who listen to the rain go to play the peach blossom fan, and we go to watch and give opinions from time to time, is there a purpose in this?" Compared with Zhang Chen, who was distracted, Zhu Er, who was dark, and Zhang Wu, who was sad, the well-behaved Zhang Lu noticed Zhang Shou's voice faster.

"I can't help you with how you should get into the office, and if you don't become an official, how will you make a living in the future? The capital seems to be full of shops, but the competition in various industries is very fierce, and behind many industries, there may be elders in your own family. Lu Sanlang chose a bookstore with no big background before, but even so, he also cooperated with Shi Wenxuan. ”

"What about you? What kind of industry do you want to rely on to meet the expenses of the family in the future? Don't tell me that the land that might be given to you. You must know that in the past, one acre of rice field in the south of the Yangtze River could produce four stones, but in the north, one acre of land could produce two to three stones, which is already a high yield, thanks to Emperor Taizu's strong advocacy of fertilizer. Let's count it according to three stones, and a thousand acres of land is three thousand stones. ”

"And if it is a tenant farming, or a long-term worker, then the land rent that can be collected in a year is seventy percent, rounded downward, and it is counted as two thousand stones." Speaking of these three words, Zhang Shou couldn't help but sigh secretly, thinking that the tenants of Zhao Guogong's Mansion in Rongshui Village at the beginning were indeed quite light, which was very different from the greedy eating appearance of most dignitaries and dignitaries who exploited farmers in these years.

"And these two thousand stone grains, in the case of cheap grain in a good year, can probably be worth a thousand guan, and in the case of expensive grain, it is about two thousand guan. But the premise of all this is that you will be given a thousand acres of land, and you will be able to harvest a lot of grain. Oh, I haven't counted the taxes paid to the imperial court. ”

Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu immediately smiled bitterly. The family of the two of them said that it was the Hou Mansion, and there were naturally a lot of fields, but how could a concubine like them be as big as a thousand acres of grange? If the family can have two or three hundred acres, it is already going to burn high incense. In this way, the money that can be obtained in a year is five or six hundred yuan in more cases, and one or two hundred yuan in less time, and besides, which housekeeper does not rub oil?

And even Zhu Er, thinking that if the eldest brother came back safely, the family might not be separated, but that meant that he would always be attached to the eldest brother to live. And if the family is separated, he may be able to get a lot of things, but if he can't manage the family well, then maybe he won't be as good as now. So, he simply asked, "Then what industry should we live on in the future?" ”

"Now if the capital wants to say that it can still intervene, it is nothing more than entertainment. The so-called entertainment is to have fun. Although there are a lot of opera troupes, there are also a lot of playing, playing and singing in the teahouse restaurant, such as listening to Yu Xiaozhu, there are also many people who are either rich or expensive, but in general, there are not many tricks. You used to be idle, you should have been to all the places you should have been, and you should have been good at this aspect. ”

Zhang Shou glanced around at a few people as he spoke, and said with a smile: "Why do you think the story I told today is interesting, don't you think the talented and beautiful woman is too old-fashioned?" In Lu Sanlang's bookstore, the books written by those scholars are becoming more and more boring, isn't it because they are the top students in the title of the gold list of poor scholars every day, and the talented and beautiful women spend the moon before and after? Using a girl like Twelve Rain, who is already very famous, to interpret a different story, this is just an attempt. You should know what appeals most to your kind. ”

Zhang Chen and Zhang Lu and Zhang Wu exchanged a look, and they had a little gain in their hearts. And Zhu Er's reaction was straightforward: "That's right, in the past, as long as there were new things in the capital, everyone was afraid of falling behind, now why don't we lead the trend?" ”
