Chapter 1007: The Ownership of a Cabbage (Part I)

Chapter 1007 The Ownership of a Cabbage (Part I)

Zhao Xing glanced at Cheng Azhu, who suddenly raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes were full of eagerness, and then he lowered his eyes and concentrated on fiddling with the tea set in his hand.

Zhao Xing understood everything at this time, and he didn't understand that he was a fool.

He was silent for a moment, then nodded involuntarily.

Cheng Tong immediately raised his hand and greeted Cheng Laoqi at the door: "Lao Qi, come in and talk." ”

Cheng Laoqi walked into the courtyard with surprise and joy by the door, walked carefully behind everyone, squatted down again, and squatted at the door of the house.

"The clan has decided: Ah Zhu will serve Mr. in the future. Azhu's husband - that is the kid in the city, we will give him 15 guan and let him withdraw from his family", Cheng Tongping said peacefully, as if he was not deciding the fate of a person, but deciding the ownership of a cabbage.

I often hear that the ancients regarded women as goods, but I didn't expect it to be so understated.

Several old men squatting at the door of the house actually nodded at Cheng Tong's decision, and Cheng Laoqi looked at him very eagerly. What about Cheng Azhu? The little woman didn't seem to be averse to being decided.

Why should she object?

The Song Dynasty was an era of great intellectual reverence – in other words: it was an era of talented and beautiful women.

The shopkeeper in the city is Cheng Azhu's quasi-husband, that's right! But it was only a marriage arranged by the orders of the parents. And the shopkeeper is willing to marry an "absent" mountain girl as his wife, mainly for beauty, but in his heart, he also has a feeling of contempt for the mountain girl.

Cheng Azhu has never seen Wang Xiaosan a few times, but in the short contact, she can feel Wang Xiaosan's contempt for her father and daughter. Although she is confident that she can use her beauty to win favor, she has been favored by the boys in the village since she was a child, and she can't help but feel a little indignant.

Then Zhao Xing came, and he didn't know what it meant to be excellent. Zhao Xing doesn't talk much, but he treats people gently, and his gestures exude a completely different temperament from the villagers. The 14-year-old girl is at the age of spring, she has never walked out of the mountains, and Zhao Xing, who is close in front of her, is the prince in her eyes. His kind of peace from modern society is far from being comparable to a Song Dynasty shopkeeper. One can imagine what a little girl with spring would think.

In fact, Cheng Azhu is not the only one in the whole village who is addicted to him, those little girls and daughters-in-law come to cook for him every day, not without intention. However, Zhao Xing has always been taciturn, which makes him seem very withdrawn, so that those women dare not be casual and affectionate, so most women have to get close by sending food and cooking.

In the past, Cheng Azhu did not have this opportunity to deliver food, so she could only watch other women flattering and flattering from afar, and she hid at home to learn etiquette silently.

Today, at this moment, the etiquette she has learned is useful, and she has got her wish, why is she not happy?

Zhao Xing took in the reactions of the people around him one by one. He understood: Cheng Tong wanted him to take root in Chengjiaao, so he did not hesitate to send the most beautiful woman in the clan to envelop him.

This habit may have been inherited from Cheng Tongzu, whose ancestor was accustomed to using maids and concubines to envelop guests in the big family. So Cheng Tong was inherited this set of habits.

But Zhao Xing couldn't refuse - coming to this strange world, Cheng Jiaao was the only place he was familiar with, and he had to rely on Cheng Jiaao to develop, Cheng Jiaao was now his only "root", so he could only nod.

In fact, Zhao Xing didn't feel the chase of the women in the village, but other than that, the men felt it. They were not jealous because of this, but Zhao Xing had always been very easy-going, and the mountain people generally benefited a lot from his existence, which made the mountain people have nothing to say. This time, Cheng Tong identified the target as Cheng Azhu, and the rest of the people were naturally secretly happy in their hearts.

Why be happy?

Chengjiaao is rich, the girl and daughter-in-law in the col have learned a lot of cooking and work skills from the teacher, how can the girls in the other villages compare to them? The teacher has ordered Cheng Azhu now, doesn't that mean that the rest of the little girls will definitely choose among our children-(*^__^*) hehe...... This can also be regarded as "fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders"!

As if to strengthen the tone, Cheng Tong added meaningfully in Azhu's joy: "So, tell other little girls, don't come to disturb the teacher if you have nothing to do!" ”

Zhao Xing knew that this was clearly for him.

He smiled slightly, and the smile was meaningful

After a pause, Cheng Tong added flatteringly: "Master, we discussed it just now: in the future, the clan property in the village will be 'private six public four' - private people will get sixty percent, and 'public middle school' will take forty percent." Forty percent of the 'Gongzhong' is divided equally with the master, and the clan uses two percent of the endowment and pension for the orphaned and elderly, and the master's share is handled by the master himself, how about it? ”

Zhao Xing looked pampered, he nodded calmly and didn't say a word.

Zhao Xing's original profits did not completely belong to him. He came from modern times and was not yet accustomed to the slave-style apprenticeship of the Song Dynasty. He believes that "pay for work" can maximize the enthusiasm of employees. Therefore, although the children are learning from him, he has set very detailed quantitative indicators, and pays the children according to the amount of labor and labor performance.

It is precisely because of this foundation that in the Song Dynasty, when Cheng Tong raised 20% of the income from the "clan industry" to Zhao Xing in the Song Dynasty, which was close to the modern "patent law", it did not encounter the slightest obstacle. But...... Cheng Tong feels that it is a gift, but according to modern concepts, it is actually a kind of deprivation of mental work.

How can Zhao Xing say? His face was expressionless.

Such an expression made Cheng Tong feel unhappy and angry, he didn't have the concept of "patent fee" in his heart, so he felt that the other party just said "oh" for such a big effort, and this reaction was too bland. After waiting for a while, before he could expect to thank him, he had to continue: "After a while, does the master plan to let the children participate in the imperial examination?" ”

Zhao Xing shook his head.

Now, the children's knowledge has not yet reached the point of participating in the imperial examination - just kidding, the children who have studied for two years are at most the level of the second grade of primary school. In the early days of the founding of the dynasty, the level of the children's examination was assessed - it was equivalent to "upper primary school (i.e., the third grade of primary school)".

In addition, Zhao Xing's teaching is all about practical knowledge. But in the Song Dynasty, knowledge was measured by the level of writing poetry.

Now, Cheng Jiaao's children have learned a lot of practical skills, and their literacy level definitely exceeds that of the current Mengtong, but when it comes to the level of making couplets...... Can you expect a modern science student who doesn't know anything about poetry and rhythm to teach a group of Li Bai Dufu?
