"I've learned a lot today, and I'll come back tomorrow for advice. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

In the evening, after having lunch at Chen Zhi's house and saying goodbye to Lu Ying, he got on the ox cart and left.

It's better not to be so diligent.

Watching this more genuine genius leave, Chen Zhi muttered silently in his heart, and then went back to the house.

As soon as Lu Ying came, he pulled him to discuss the teacher's words, saying that it was a discussion, but in fact, most of the time it was a debate, Lu Ying admired the teacher very much, but he had opinions on some of the arguments, so many times, he was trying to reverse the old opinion.

In this way, but after suffering Chen Zhi, he was not good at coaxing people directly, so he had to accompany him, and the day passed like this, which made him very helpless.

"However, Lu Ying's opinion is not completely useless, and talking to him, the halo of copper coins is also more than that of enlightened schoolchildren, if you don't often go to clan studies in the future, you might as well consider talking to Lu Ying more, maybe it can be used as a stable source of halo."

However, Chen Zhi just thought about it, after all, Lu Ying was going out to study, and it was impossible to stay here for a long time, but this idea can be used for reference, without Lu Ying, as well as Liu Kan, Zhang Yong, and many students from Guijing Academy.

"There are so many people, the halo of copper coins is not worried."

Thinking so, Chen Zhi planned to go to Guijing Academy to have a look, but the next day, another incident affected the plan, but three elders came to visit.

"These three are all elders from Zuozhai Village, and this time they came to intercede with you, young master."

Listening to Chen Fu's introduction, looking at the three plainly dressed old men in front of him with wrinkles and ravines, Chen Zhi hurriedly asked people to move the seats, let the old men sit down, and made people serve tea-

With the transfer of ownership of the house, some of the servants were also assigned to it, although the number was not large, but it was able to maintain the operation of the mansion, in addition, there were several nursing homes were divided, and the leader was Kong Li, who had helped Chen Zhi do things.

The interior of such a mansion is quite complete.

Therefore, when the three old men came in, they seemed cautious, and in the face of Chen Zhi's courtesy, they were even more honestly afraid, and when the chairs were moved, they only dared to be half next to each other, and then carefully explained their intentions.

It turned out that Zuozhai Village, where the three old men were located, was located not far from the north, close to a piece of fertile land under Chen Zhi's name, and most of the people in the village were tenant farmers of Chen Zhi.

The villagers of Zuozhai Village, who were originally homeless, left their hometowns and came to settle down in Xuzhou, there was no place to stand, only labor, and naturally became tenant farmers, known as "guest farming", which had no legal identity, that is, the commonly known as "apprenticeship", after the new Han Dynasty unified the north, for various considerations, these people were given a legal status, so they became "tenants".

Like Zuozhai Village, a village, where most of the population is a tenant farmer of a landlord, is actually a manifestation of land annexation, and it is also a sign of the strength of the clan, which means that these clans have money, land, food, and people!

In other words, Chen Zhi at this time also controlled the prosperity of this village, and if he dismissed all the tenant farmers under his name, the entire village would lose its economic source and fall into difficulties.

Of course, if this really happens, the government will definitely intervene, but the three old men in front of them don't dare to hold on like this, and respectfully shouted the master, and made their intentions clear.

It turned out that the three of them came here in the hope of reducing some of the land rent and leaving more rations for the people in the village.

"Master Mingjian, it's not that we have the intention to be in arrears, but that the past few years have been bad, and this winter is even more cold, and the harvest will definitely not be as good as before, and I hope that the master can be gracious."

"Master, be gracious, otherwise I don't know how many families will suffer."

"Master, you are a great sage and a famous person, we all know the name, I hope to understand us, I don't mean to be treacherous, there is really no way."

The three old men knelt down as they spoke, and Chen Zhi hurriedly asked people to stop them.

Don't look at Chen Zhi's reputation now, he is just an ordinary tenant farmer in front of him, but if the three of them kneel down, it will be a terrible thing, violating the values of respecting the elderly, and being criticized by words and writings is light, and the reputation that has just been established will be in vain.

"I already know the intention of several old men, and when I go to the field to inspect and understand clearly, I will give you an answer." The other party begged to come to the door, and it was impossible for Chen Zhi not to actually understand it, so he relented and agreed, and he always wanted to find out.

However, he also knew that what the three of them said was roughly true.

The official Han Dynasty advocated the cultivation of winter wheat very early, and Dong Zhongshu of the Western Han Dynasty once wrote to the Han Dynasty, and it was also recorded in the agricultural work "The Book of Bisheng", so it is not uncommon. However, in recent years, Xuzhou has experienced drought and floods, coupled with the arrival of freezing, climate change, and natural impact on the harvest, the three old people are not rumors.

Chen Zhi said this, and the three old men relaxed slightly, but they also knew that the old man in front of them had a bad reputation in the past, so they were inevitably worried.

Chen Zhi saw that a few people were worried, and he didn't appease them, but cleaned them up, and took everyone to the fields to investigate, asking the farmers along the way.

As soon as those people saw Chen Zhi, they listened to the inquiry, and when they saw the three old men, they all guessed the reason, and complained one after another, telling about the hardships of plowing the fields, and saying that the harvest was not good, etc., Chen Zhi listened to them one by one, and then went down to the fields to investigate in person.

Of course, his actions were regarded as a pretentious gesture, no one thought that Chen Zhi would understand the matter of farmland, but he did not know that Chen Zhi had implemented Tuntian in his previous life, although he had not personally gone to the field, but he had also been signed by the farmer, and he had some understanding.

"It's really not optimistic, a few rest assured, the land rent will inevitably be reduced, how to do it, I will let people discuss it when I go back, and I will give a few answers."

As Chen Zhi's words fell, several old people, together with the farmers who were questioned, all looked grateful, and they were very grateful to Chen Zhi.

"It's not too late to talk about it when things are settled."

After appeasing everyone, Chen Zhi took people back to the mansion, and soon called Chen Fu and asked him to go to the city to recruit a few craftsmen.

With Chen Fu entering the city, today's events are also circulating in the city, and everyone who hears it is smiling.

"Chen Zhi has also come to raise hope, and he knows that he has cast a virtuous name among the people."

"He has gained a lot of industries, the rice and grain shop, Zhang Pi walk, the tea shop and the tavern are unknown, the family population is small, and the Chen family clan is backed, and he has a good relationship with many families, and the reduction of a little land rent has no impact at all, but it is a good means to accumulate fame."

"That's fine, Chen Zhi is now a celebrity in Xuzhou, and when the township is settled, he is a masterpiece of Pengcheng, and he can't always find another way to accumulate fame, and the façade of Pengcheng in the future may be this person, this accumulation of fame is better than a little safe."

"Isn't it? I recently went to Wuyuan to buy goods, and Chen Zhi's reputation spread there, and some people asked me about one or two, and I said about "Shi Shuo", which surprised them a lot, but Chen Qishao's reputation is not deep enough, and people over there will not respect it as much as we do. ”

"Well, the situation in the north is like this, but the south is different, "Shi Said" has been passed south, and some people have already mentioned it in Xiapi County, and they are also praising it, the day of the big spread is not far away, Chen Zhi is now raising hope with the love of farmers, which is a very correct choice, and when the time comes to introduce it to people from other counties, there are also things to say."

Similar conversations circulated in the circles of scholars and merchants, and everyone felt that Chen Zhi's entry into the fields and the reduction of rent were to further consolidate his reputation, which was also in line with the general road to fame.

In the past, many celebrities and celebrities relied on a blockbuster method to come to the forefront, but if the foundation is not consolidated in the follow-up, it will be as unstable as a castle in the air, such as Zuo Si, who got the name of Luoyang paper noble, but the foundation is unstable, and he has to cling to the magnates, so as to stabilize the fame and hometown, as a result, the magnates fell, and their people were also affected by disasters and contacts, otherwise the Zuo family will now be more serious and will not be limited to the Qingzhou literary circle.

This news also spread to the county guard's mansion, and the county guard Xu Hui was planning to visit Chen Zhi, as soon as he heard this rumor, he had another thought, so he recruited his staff Zhang Ji and said his thoughts: "Ren Sheng, you said that when I visited, by the way, I mentioned the edict of persuading farmers, can I also help Chen Zhi to raise hope?" ”

When Zhang Ji heard this, he guessed Shangguan's thoughts, and asked rhetorically: "County Shou, do you want to befriend Chen Zhi with this, and at the same time use his reputation as a new celebrity to get the reputation of persuading farmers?" ”

"Not bad," Xu Hui nodded, stroked his beard and said with a smile, "As soon as "Shi Shuo" came out, not only Chen Zhi was named from now on, but I also didn't have to worry about my persuasion and evaluation, and I ruled out such famous teaching articles, even if I didn't do anything in the next two years, it was enough to get an education, all thanks to Chen Zhi's help, he was in the limelight right now, and he could also settle down to consolidate his reputation, he was a person who could be valued, I helped him, and also borrowed his east wind, and so "Shi Shuo" became famous in Xuzhou, and the persuasion of agriculture that I talked to him about naturally spread, Useful for evaluation. ”

Zhang Ji nodded and said: "County Shou, your idea is good, but if you want to visit Chen Zhi, you also have to prepare, he is now famous, if you want this reputation to help you evaluate, you have to help Chen Zhi support the momentum, in order to become your arm and help you soar." ”

"That's right." Xu Hui smiled and nodded, "I heard that someone has spread the "Shi Shuo" to the south, it is estimated that it will be spread in another ten days and half a month, I am very curious about the expressions of those people after reading this article, I guess they couldn't imagine that it would be me who took the lead in the edict of Xingxue!" Hey, if the assassin knows about it, I don't know how he will feel, this Pengcheng is abandoned by him. ”

There was a faint resentment in the words, and the southward migration of the assassin was not simply a person leaving, but also a southward migration of policies and so on, which made Pengcheng a lot less convenient. Of course, this also makes Xu Hui less constrained, but when people think about things, they always care about the parts that are unfavorable to them and ignore the benefits.

………………

At the same time, in Guangling County, which is separated from Pengcheng by two counties, in the guest room of the Inner Courtyard, Chen Hua put down his pen, glanced at the article he had just written on the table, showed a smile, moved his wrist, and dropped four words-

"The Way of the Teacher".

Beside and behind him, more than a dozen attendants were sorting out the classics, and a few were proofreading the allusions next to him. (To be continued.) )
