Chapter 101: Sowing the Flame

In the afternoon of the next day, Zhou Min and the other thirteen people came to the farmland outside the city again.

This time, however, they had gained experience, and instead of a chic shirt, they wore a linen shirt, and each of them had a hoe ready.

Thirteen people, dressed in linen shirts, carried hoes and walked majestically on the pipes out of the city.

"Yo! Isn't this Zhou Jialangjun? Aren't you studying at Vientiane Academy? Why is this dressed? On the road, an acquaintance recognized Zhou Min.

"Aunt Wang, the mountain chief asked us to go to the farm outside the city to experience life!" Zhou Min smiled heartily, revealing two big white teeth.

"Brother Li, Brother Li is not studying in the academy, why is he dressed like this? Wasn't he removed from the academy? ”

"Brother Sun is polite! I and the thirteen classmates went to the farm to experience life on the order of the mountain chief! Li Aimin put down his hoe and bowed proudly.

"Go to the farm and experience life?" The scholar who asked Li Aimin with malice was a little dumbfounded, and then said with some smugness: "You are going to read the books of sages, why do you still want to go to the farm to experience life?"

This academy, thanks to me not going, is so nonsense and unreliable! ”

"Humph! The bird knows the ambition of the bird! My mountain chief said, if you don't even know about farming, how can you be an official?

is a Jinshi in the examination, and he is also a confused official! Seeing that the other party actually dared to slander the academy, Zhou Min took a step forward and scolded with disdain.

"It's ridiculous, you can be a good official if you know how to do farming? The officials have said that if you follow your life, you will read it in front of the window!

It can be seen that as long as you read the Six Classics well, you can become an official! This is what the official family said, could it be that the head of your family is more powerful than the official family? ”

"Ridiculous! You are misinterpreting the holy will, and the official family still has to take the saint and the king to learn farming in the palace!

If you don't understand farming, how can you understand the suffering of the people, and how can you be a good official who loves the people like a son? Li Aimin also went up to defend himself.

"Forget it, forget it! Summer insects can't speak to ice! What is there to argue with others like him, I just have to do my own thing and complete the task assigned by the mountain chief! The good old man Sun Fengxu stepped forward to persuade Zhou Min and Li Aimin, who were theorizing with the other party, but what he said was not like what a good man should say.

After a short argument, the thirteen continued to the farm to learn farming from the farmers.

Recently, the topic of Kaifeng Mansion has been occupied by bullfighting competitions, but it does not mean that everyone does not pay attention to Vientiane Academy, on the contrary, everyone is quite concerned about Vientiane Academy.

Because, according to the rules of the college, students who take one small exam every month, and who rank in the bottom ten in three consecutive small exams will be discouraged.

This also means that in another month, a group of people will be persuaded to quit, and everyone is silently watching, waiting for a vacancy in the academy to be filled by their own sons.

The behavior of Zhou Min's thirteen people naturally caused a heated discussion.

"Did you hear that?"

"What?"

"Vientiane Academy, students are required to understand farming, the Zhou family, the Li family, and the old Sun family, thirteen people went to the farms outside the city to follow the farmers to learn farming!"

"Scholars don't study well, and it's really insulting to go to learn to farm!"

"What's insulting, I think it's good, the official family is still learning to farm in the palace!"

"Can that be the same? They should study hard now, gain fame, want to learn farming, and wait for the Jinshi to pass the exam, and then experience farming! ”

"After passing the Jinshi examination and becoming an official, will you still go to learn farming from farmers?"

For a time, Vientiane Academy let students learn farming, which became a hot topic in Kaifeng Mansion, some in favor, some against, and indifferent people who eat melons, and the topic heat almost overwhelmed the bullfighting competition.

However, in the end, it was the bullfighting that became more popular, and everyone was discussing which cow to buy in the next draw.

In order to reflect fairness, justice and openness, the twelve bullfighting bulls of the next competition have been displayed outside the bullring. Outside the 12 fences, people who came to check the bullfighting information were crowded, and everyone gathered around the fence to judge the bullfighting in the fence. Talking about which cow can win the championship.

Under Zhang Junping's prompt, there are new tricks in the way Guan Po plays, no longer only buying champions, but buying them separately, for example, you can buy a certain bull to win one or two.

In this way, the twelve pit bulls are all sought after, and it is no longer like the first competition, there are several cows, one piece is known, it is not the material of the champion, and almost no one buys it.

Now, no cow is bought, and even if you don't buy the champion, you can buy it and win one, or two, what if you guess right? In everyone's opinion, adding new ways to play is equivalent to increasing their odds of winning.

As everyone knows, what really increases is the income of the bullring.

Vientiane Academy asked students to learn about farming, but it was like a stone thrown into the water to stir up a big wave, but it was quickly drowned out by the talk of bullfighting.

Everyone continued to discuss which bull would win several fights and which bull would win the championship.

When everyone was hotly discussed, the two brothers Zhao Congyu were planning how to go to the Jiangnan and Zhejiang regions to start a new bullfighting business.

"Big brother, this matter must be grasped quickly, we know that if we go to the Jiangnan and Zhejiang regions to have bullfighting competitions, those southerners can also imagine it, in case they take the lead, we will be a little passive if we do it again! Even if you can snatch it back, you will be impeached by those imperial histories! ”

"I know, but the bullfighting competition is not a trivial matter, and we can't go in person, and I don't worry about arranging ordinary people!" Zhao Congyu said with some sorrow.

It is true that he is a member of the royal family, and in Kaifeng Mansion, as long as he does not provoke a few people, he can go sideways.

However, without the emperor's order, he can't leave Kaifeng Mansion casually, and he is not as free as those ordinary people.

"It's really not good, let the housekeeper go! Let the housekeeper personally take people to the two Zhejiang provinces in the south of the Yangtze River to organize a bullfighting competition! Zhao Congshi suggested.

"There's only one way!" Zhao Congyu nodded.

Then he called the housekeeper and gave an explanation, and asked him to take hundreds of servants and guards to the Jiangnan and Zhejiang regions to organize bullfighting competitions.

The reason why they brought so many people was because they had to escort the start-up capital of 20,000 taels of silver to the Jiangnan and Zhejiang regions.

Zhao Congyu and the two brothers didn't think about going to the Jiangnan and Zhejiang regions to go to the empty glove white wolf.

The actions of the two brothers Zhao Congyu were naturally seen by those who cared about it, and there were no secrets in the palace, let alone the British Mansion.

Soon, the plans of the two brothers Zhao Congyu were inquired about by someone with a heart.

"That's right! How did I forget about this stubble? This sentence sounded in the study or main hall of many powerful and wealthy families.

Although the richest Jiangnan and Zhejiang provinces are occupied by the two brothers Zhao Congyu, there are other places where mosquito legs are meat no matter how small they are.

Subsequently, these powerful and wealthy families have sent capable descendants to various places.

Horses and knights with swords escorted carriages and merchant ships one after another, leaving the capital one after another, scattering them all over the country like tinder.
