Chapter 14: The Dispute between the North and the South
Li Hang was slightly surprised, but he was originally here to join in the fun, after all, this is for Lord Yuan, it is a matter here, and it is impossible for him to do his own things at home alone.
However, what Li Hang didn't expect was that this Lord Yuan had not yet connected with Zhu Zhengheng, and he was cut off by his family.
Looking at the flattering shopkeeper Su on the side, Li Hang suddenly felt a little funny.
This shopkeeper Su is really a tyrant on this dock, of course, this is not a derogatory term, but an important resource for the entire Su family to control everything on this dock.
He is in control of the transportation of shipping, and most of the transportation by land is also under his control, plus the chamber of commerce here and various restaurants, which are actually related to his Su family, which makes him a real tyrant unconsciously.
Li Hang glanced at a few of the Yuan family's family members over there, although they were also coarse linen clothes, they looked very clean.
Obviously, these families are from large families.
At this time, Yu Shida went around behind Li Hang. "See, I'm afraid it's no drama today, only the teacher can go over, let's just wait here."
"Let's be familiar, will you go back to the academy with the teacher in a while, or follow me to my house, let's have a good chat!"
Li Hang smiled, this good friend had funded himself at that time, although he was no longer his predecessor, but he didn't pretend not to know him when he said it.
"Okay! I'd like to try your craft! ”
Yu Shida smiled, his family was not inferior to the Yuan family, and he didn't need to talk to Yuan Jishi.
At this time, Yuan Jishi's side had already connected with the family, and this Zhu Zhengheng also followed, and the other party came to inspect the academy, so he had to go up no matter what he said.
Soon Zhu Zhengheng went up.
"Come on! You've come here to see Lord Yuan! As soon as Zhu Zhengheng said, Li Hang and his party followed.
"I've seen Lord Yuan!"
A row of scholars in long robes greeted each other, which made Yuan Jishi smile. "These are all your students?"
"Yes! They are all students of my Huishan Academy, and several others are still studying in Huishan Academy, but this one went home halfway because of a family accident, and now he is teaching and educating people in this Donglin Port! ”
Such an introduction can be regarded as a formality.
Seeing that Yuan Jishi wanted to rest a little, Zhu Zhengheng led him to a nearby restaurant.
At this time, the task of Li Hang and the others was completed, and then Yuan Jishi would definitely go home, and then go to Huishan Academy.
"Then Li Hang, I'll leave first and go back to Huishan Academy first!" Hearing Zhu Zhengheng's words, several classmates bowed their hands to Li Hang.
Yes!
Glancing at the friends who were not ready to go back, Li Hang smiled.
"Then I'm ready to prepare! Come to my house for dinner tonight! Li Hang has no doubt about the talent of this good friend, even in the academy, he is also the number one genius, and this good friend is also good-looking, which is simply jealous.
Li Hang led him to the vegetable market and bought some pork. But I didn't see the face of the good friend behind him change slightly.
"Brother Hang, the pork is fishy......"
"That's what they won't do, I'll make you a dish in a while, and make sure you swallow it with your tongue!" I bought some garlic and prepared a lot of ingredients by myself.
When the teacher comes, he just eats fish and meat, so of course he has to entertain good friends.
followed Li Hang back home, and Yu Shida went in with two pots of wine.
"Teacher Zhu brought us here today, most of them because he wanted Yuan Jishi to take care of us in the future, they are all scholars from the north, and they should work together, but Yuan Jishi came to inspect Huishan Academy this time, and it is estimated that he does not want to have too much contact with the people of Huishan Academy before the inspection, so as not to be truthful."
"Yes!" Li Hang was cutting the pork while soaking it in green onion and ginger water to remove the fishy smell. "Actually, this matter is not a matter of one or two academies, and we can't do anything about it!"
Li Hang said a little depressedly, it's not something he can influence, today he met these classmates and his former teachers, he just wanted to take this opportunity to tell these former acquaintances that he was doing well, so that they could rest assured. By the way, it is also to let these people know their situation.
As for pretending to be forced or something, this really can't be pretended to be forced in front of them, and those who can read these years are a little bit foundational.
A dish of roasted pork with garlic, with a stir-fried back to the pot meat, although there is no chili, it can barely be eaten.
"Come and try my craft!" Li Hang smiled and brought the dishes to the table, while Zhou Yurong took Zhou Xin to the other side, and the two big men sat at the far end of the courtyard and looked at the sky. "Brother Star, what are you doing this trip for?"
He took a sip of his wine. "What's more, it's not the commotion of the scholars from the north and the south!"
looked at Li Hang a little depressed, but Yu Shida's face was full of envy. "I'm not like Brother Hang, my wife Meijuan is by my side, and there are disciples to drive. Although my Xu family has a big family, you and I are not from a wealthy family! Not even a concubine! ”
took a sip of wine depressed, and Yu Shida was particularly envious of Li Hang.
You don't have to think about anything, you just need to be yourself. And he can't be like this, he can't fall into the style of a wealthy family, he can't do this, he can't do that.
He felt that this Xu family was a constraint for him.
"Hypocrisy!" Li Hang patted him on the shoulder.
"Many people envy Brother Shida too late, even if you think the Xu family is not good now, he also shelters you, so that you don't have to worry about food and clothing, if you don't have the protection of the Xu family, firewood, rice, oil and salt This is a very annoying thing, every family has a difficult scripture, if I don't give them a chance, these children are very likely to have no chance to contact these things in their lifetime, don't think too much, if you have the ability to directly take the imperial examination, when a person goes to another place to be an official, then you will be the emperor of the sky! Hahaha! Li Hang took a sip of wine, and then put a mocking look on this guy's waist.
"When you get outside, if you have any difficulties, tell me!" Li Hang looked at this good friend very solemnly, he wanted to go out, and he must be admitted to the imperial examination. With his strength, it is only a matter of minutes to get this move.
Li Hang said with a hand on his shoulder. "Go to the academy tomorrow, if Yuan Jishi comes, you will show your talent well, and then it will not be Huishan Academy, and within three days, I will see that Brother Shida will soar."
Under the premise of the uneven strength of the scholars in the north and south, Yuan Jishi came here and found that the good seedlings naturally wanted to take them to Jinling.
So I'm afraid my days here won't last long.
"If I can really go to Jinling, I will have to thank Brother Hang Jiyan in the future!" Yu Shida looked at this friend with drunken eyes.
Li Hang hesitated for a long time before he slowly opened his mouth. "Brother Shida, you will definitely be able to get rid of the family's troubles, but the officialdom is dangerous, Brother Shida must take care!"
Whispering, Li Hang looked at Yu Shida and nodded, then took another sip of wine, and lay on the table with some squinted eyes, and then called a few powerful apprentices to help him go to a nearby inn.
I just don't know how much he can listen to what he said today.
