Li Bai finally got the opportunity to hand out an olive branch like Master Cen.

The abacus is naturally very good, and if Master Cen agrees to this arrangement, he will be regarded as a retainer of the Li family. Although strictly speaking, Li Bai has not yet separated from his father, and Li Ke still has to be the master of this family. But after all, he can be regarded as out of the house, and he can still use his father's money to pay employees salaries, which is actually very cost-effective.

The important thing is that with the relationship between this layer of retainers, the requirements for practicing calligraphy on weekdays will naturally be lighter. I shouldn't preach with that old face every day, and the road will inevitably be much easier.

As long as the characters can be read, Li Bai doesn't want to be a calligrapher, tired. Practicing calligraphy every day, chanting poetry and painting, where is the time to bully men and women? Enjoying life?

The master pulled his mouth, as if he was laughing, but there was no sound, staring at Li Bai's eyes looked a little infiltrating, and only said after a while: "It is worthy of being the son of a businessman, and he has a good ......calculation, but I ask you, you accept me as a bookkeeper, and if you get into trouble, isn't it that the old man has to be affected by you when he is a lot of age?" ”

"You are full of talent but say that it is too tiring to win fame, but in life, what can you do really easy? Merchants may not lack gold and silver, but in Chang'an City, there are many dignitaries and dignitaries, if you don't have fame, even if you earn tens of millions of net worth, what can you do? An order from the official family can bankrupt your family and ruin your family! ”

"Not to mention that you are really so good at being a merchant in this Chang Ancheng? But all the merchants who can gain a firm foothold in Chang'an City, which one is not supported by the powerful behind them? Do you think that if you rush to the capital with a little capital, you can get along with your ghost ideas in Chang'an City? This inevitably makes the imperial capital too simple, right? ”

"Don't talk about it, let's talk about today's events. If you don't take care of Lord Zhang's face, just with all the things you have at this banquet today, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave this Shu County tomorrow. Not to mention capital crimes, a hard labor is inevitable. The power to decide on the common people under your rule above these ten thousand people is not attractive to you at all? ”

Is this guiding yourself on the right track?

In fact, what the master said was right, after all, this was in the Kang Dynasty, and the pure merchant family in feudal society really had no status, and if you put away your wealth, your social status was even inferior to that of a peasant. This is also the most headache for Li Bai.

Of course, there is always a way to think of it.

There must be a way to protect yourself, and there must be a backer.

"I understand what you're saying. Just like you said, business in the imperial capital is indeed not easy to do, there are too many taboos, but all the voices with big profits are not something that I, a little person with no foundation and no background, can interfere with. But there is always good business that no one has thought of before. As long as it can be done, share some shares and operate slowly, there will always be a reliance. ”

"As for being an official, it is naturally majestic, but it also has its own sufferings. Can Tan Fu Yin cover the sky with one hand in Shu? Not necessarily! I am afraid that deception is inevitable. You have to calculate people's hearts every day, tired! It's not hypocrisy to say this, if you can easily do it, you can become a high-ranking official, Li Bai naturally doesn't want to miss it. It's just a step-by-step camp, I'm afraid I can't do it! ”

"Oh? ...... hearing this, I think there's a position for you......"

"Huh? Want to know more? ”

"Go to the feet of the Son of Heaven to be a favored minister!"

……

"......, young master, master, the inn has arrived!"

As soon as Master Cen threw out those words, the carriage stopped smoothly, leaving only Li Bai's face cloudy.

In fact, this is also a way out, except that the risk factor is higher.

After all, in history, few of the emperor's favorites seemed to have a good end.

However, in a sense, he is different, he has thousands of years of knowledge, coaxes people to be happy, and should still have the ability to foresee danger in advance. You can learn from history.

Is it to put history on the right track? As Li Bai again, go to the old man who was wise when he was young, mediocre when he was old, and who was lustful, poetic, and rhythmic?

In fact, this can be had, any way that can make oneself realize one's ideals, can be tried as a direction, but it is contrary to the requirements of his cheap dad.

Well, if you really want to go down this path, you have to think it more carefully.

"Taught!" As soon as he thought of this, Li Bai ignored the coachman's shouting, stood up, and shook it to the end.

"No thanks! I won't settle this nonsense with you today. Well, don't think that if I don't agree to you to be the bookkeeper, you can do without my money. This way as a teacher, it also requires money, and the ten taels of gold promised by Lord Li will naturally be given by you, and when I get to the capital, it will be enough for me to get away. ”

"Huh?!" Li Bai was stunned, no one had told him about this, shouldn't this old man be a slanderer, right?

"Don't be surprised, the document printed with the county official is still in the old man's package, and when you arrive in the capital, you will naturally ask for it with the document. Well, remember to give me the copied poetry book tomorrow. If you let me see that you asked the maid to ghostwrite, the old man's ring ruler is not a vegetarian. ”

"Wait, ten taels of gold, ten taels of gold, this is easy to say. But is there no need to copy this Book of Poetry? I think you've shown me a way to become famous, and being a favorite won't require a good hand, right? ”

"Ridiculous! When today's Zi Shengming, working hard, is a little hobby, but also makes my Dakang Dynasty prosperous, just with your grandmother does not love your uncle, dirty eyes, you are embarrassed to say that you want to be a favored minister? Well, since you have this heart, the old man must be even more strict, so I will copy the poem more today! ”

After speaking, Master Cen ignored Li Bai, who was stunned, stood up, lifted the curtain, and got out of the carriage first with the support of Mr. Luo, who was already waiting on the side.

In his mouth, he muttered in a voice that Li Bai could just hear: "Hmph, why is the gap so big?" Thinking of that Wang Maha, at this ordinary age, poetry, books, music and rhythm are all fine, Danqing Dao also dabbled, fifteen years old arrived in Beijing, just to seek a fame, live up to the talent to achieve ambitions. My apprentice just wants to be a petted minister...... Hey, pets, pets! It's really embarrassing for the old man! ”

accidentally heard the news of other people's children, and Li Bai was extremely tired in his heart.

King Maha? Who kind of child is this, so ignorant of advance and retreat, recruiting himself into black......

Well, surnamed Wang, the same era as himself, he also knows poetry and can draw, so he has no friends......

It seems that there is such a person......

It's called Wang Wei, right? Wang Wei's word Maha? That's right, it's him......

Wang Wei, who is alone in a foreign land as a stranger, thinks of his relatives every festival, and is also the new Wang Wei in the rain and dust of Weicheng and the green willow color of the guest house...... Do you want to copy out all this guy's poems in advance, so that there are no poems to do?
