This Mr. Yan is notoriously rigid, and he is even more strict with his students, so he dared to go up and ask him who Chen Gongzi was, and tried in vain to ask him to help clean up the surname Chen, is it appropriate?

Of course, it's not suitable, people may not pay attention to you at all, or even give you two boards directly!

However, Yang Cong was not afraid at all, because he knew that this old Mr. Yan had a fatal weakness, that is, lack of money.

In fact, Mr. Yan's background and background are not a secret in the county school, everyone knows that he is a tried-and-true old man, and he is quite short of money.

He was born in a poor family, and his family didn't have much money, and after he was admitted to the lifting of people, he had to maintain his face as a lifting man, and he had to support his family, and his life was very poor, otherwise he would not have come to be a teacher in the county school.

In the Ming Dynasty, it seems that as long as you are admitted to the Juren, this life is not to mention the great wealth and wealth, and the level of the average wealthy household should be able to reach it, because since the Hongwu Dynasty, there have been regulations that each Juren has a tax-free quota of 400 acres of land under his name.

So, why is this old Mr. Yan living in poverty?

The reason is simple, because this guy doesn't make money.

Although this guy's surname is Yan, he is not as greedy for money as his own Yan Song, he is the opposite of Yan Song, he belongs to the kind that does not know how to make money.

Take the tax-free quota as an example, if this tax-free quota is exempted from the 20 taxes according to the official statement, according to the annual output of 2 stones per mu of land, 400 acres of land can earn 40 stone of grain a year, that is, 20 taels of silver, which is indeed a bit less for a person who needs to decorate the façade.

However, this tax exemption amount can actually have other understandings, because the imperial court will basically not manage this land if it is exempt from taxes, so it is very greasy to do so, and you can rent these lands to tenant farmers, and extract one stone per mu per year for tenant rent.

In this way, the profits will be great, and 400 acres of land can be rented for 200 taels a year!

At this time, it has been more than 100 years since the Ming Dynasty was established, and many things have deteriorated until now, and many Jinshi, Juren, and even the land under the name of Xiucai have become in this form, so the general Juren can reach the level of the rich, but there are exceptions.

Because there is a premise for doing this, the premise is that these lands must be bought with money and become privately owned, otherwise, they will not be able to rent to tenant farmers and extract tenant rent.

At this time, the land is at least more than 20 taels and 1 acres, and 400 acres of land is tens of thousands of taels.

At this time, it depends on each person's ability, you can marry a rich wife, you can also find someone to borrow money, you can also find a way to find a position to make money, in short, put together the money, buy the land, you can live the life of a rich man.

If you can't think of a way, then you can only hand over the tax-free amount under your name to others to donate, so that you can't receive much silver in a year, and it won't exceed twenty taels at most, because if it's more than twenty taels, people might as well pay taxes directly to the imperial court, why donate it to you!

This Mr. Yan belongs to the kind who has not come up with a way, so he is very short of money, in order to maintain the face of the old man, in order to support the family, he has to come out to teach.

Yang Cong also had a poor time in his previous life, he knew the pain of not having money, sometimes a penny can really stump a hero, this old Mr. Yan is so poor, and he is so rich now, it is not difficult to ask him a question, and it is not even difficult to make friends with him.

However, he found that his previous "self" had never befriended this Mr. Yan at all, and it turned out that this Yang Cong was a typical loser, and he knew that he had spent all day drinking with a few rich children, and he had never done anything serious.

Is it useful to make some friends like this?

If people are richer than him, will they still follow him?

It is precisely because people don't have money like him that they will follow him, and they want to get benefits from him.

He's good, he's been living such a stupid day and living a good life.

This has created the current situation, except for money, he has nothing, and this money is still given by his parents, his grandfather, he has to rely on his family for everything, he will not use his advantage of money to create a good development environment for himself.

Of course, this is a common problem for most young people, because most of them in this age group are in the brainless stage, which does not mean that people do not have brains, but mainly because they don't want to do things when they have brains, everything follows their feelings.

This is not good, Yang Cong, who has long passed the brainless period, will naturally not go brainless anymore, and now this situation does not allow him to go brainless.

The original Yang Cong didn't know how to spend money if he had money, he was different, he knew a lot about the magic of money, for example, money could be used to borrow power.

This old gentleman Yan is so short of money, as long as he spends a little money, he can borrow his power, and he can even borrow the power of the county magistrate through him, of course, it will cost a little more money.

However, in this situation, money is not a problem for him, except for money, nothing is the biggest problem.

He sat there and pondered for a long time, and when noon finally arrived, Mr. Yan directly closed the book, and then said aloud: "Class." ”

"Wow", with a bang, the students who had been holding back all morning stood up one after another, hurriedly packed up their books, and walked out.

At this time, a few rich children on the side also asked in a whisper while collecting books: "Brother Cong, where are you going to eat today, is it still Furui Building?" ”

Yang Cong shook his head and said, "Go ahead, I have something to do with Mr. Yan." ”

The rich children looked at Mr. Yan, who was slowly packing up his books, and shrank their necks one after another, and then ran out as if they were running away.

Looking for Mr. Yan, in their opinion, it is no different from looking for death!

Yang Cong was also a little stunned at this time, the previous memory still had a little impact on him, it turned out that he was really afraid of this old Mr. Yan.

He took a deep breath and suppressed the fear in his heart, then slowly stood up and slowly walked towards Mr. Yan.

At this time, the students in the school were almost gone, and Mr. Yan had almost cleaned up, and he was about to get up and go to the cafeteria to eat, but Yang Cong suddenly raised his hand and said, "Sir, please stay." ”

Mr. Yan glanced at him inexplicably, and then said with a little impatience: "What's the matter?" ”

Obviously, this guy also has a bit of a hatred of the rich, but he is a little more mature than those stunned young people, and he doesn't show it too obviously.

Yang Cong came to him and said slowly: "The student has an inquiry, I wonder if Mr. can appreciate his face and accompany the student to have a light meal?" ”

You are a "rich man", the old man is too lazy to take care of you, Mr. Yan directly refused: "Not available!" ”

After that, just get up and leave.

As soon as Yang Cong saw that there were only the two of them left in the school, he immediately lowered his voice and said, "Sir, the student does not ask for advice in vain, as long as Mr. is willing to go, fifty taels of silver will be offered." ”

Mr. Yan rolled his eyes directly at him, as if to say, you are rich and amazing?

He wasn't angry, though.

His eyes rolled like a little girl who was taken advantage of by her lover for the first time, with a trace of hesitation, a trace of grief, and a hint of anticipation.

Fifty taels, more than he earned from teaching in a year, he was really a little hesitant, just to accompany a student to have a meal, it's not a shameful thing, whether to go or not?

As soon as Yang Cong saw his expression, he knew it in his heart.

Is it great to be rich?

I'll answer this question now, and he said slowly, "One hundred taels." ”

Mr. Yan finally stood up with a constipated face, his expression seemed a little helpless, he seemed a little angry, and there seemed to be a trace of excitement hidden in it.

You have a fever with a lot of money, right, well, "Let's go!" ”
