Article 240 Woe and Blessing 13
By the way, what the hell is it to collect money, Cai's Academy has always been unwilling to accept students. Why did Hua Qiqi suddenly come to such a hand, what did he want to do?
"Hua Xianyi, did you take money from those officials?" Zeng Gong asked angrily.
This old man, when he was angry, forgot about the business, but was angry with those details, not to mention, he really wronged Hua Xianqi this time.
"Good old man! No matter what you say, you can't be so wronged! The Sprinkle family said that they collected money because Gongzi collected more than 7,000 children at once, but in fact, he had been spending his own money, and besides, the parents of these children were poor. But those officials outside are all very rich, and they all say that they sent their children to the country because of your reputation, if you don't want to take the money, you can pay for these children, how about it, old man? "Hua Xianqi said this, it was really for the good of Cai's school.
Otherwise, this place would have to go bankrupt, and Cai Dao's money would not have been blown by the wind.
Moreover, his two most profitable businesses in Bianliang City were taken away by Song Shenzong, and the business of the money was cut off at once, Cai Dao was disheartened again, and now he is indeed spending his wife's capital. Of course, the situation in Cai's school is not as serious as Hua Qian said, the cost of these children is actually not very large, there are pigs, cattle and sheep, chickens, ducks and geese and other animals in the school to supplement, and there are ten hectares of winter wheat, which is enough to cope with the food of so many people for a year.
That is, the investment in the first year is relatively large.
"Ahem!" Zeng Gong knew that he had wronged Hua Xuan, and he also thought of another benefit of collecting money.
That is, it can deter those people who have no money with high expenses, and after thinking about their situation, Zeng Gong also let go of the compassion in his heart, and doing good deeds is to do his best, not to trap himself in. If you really have to open your mouth, not only will you not be able to save the children who will come after, but you will definitely implicate the children who have lived in the school for nearly half a year.
"How much should I charge?" Zeng Gong figured it out, but the old gentleman had always been poor when he was a child, but he had been busy studying and learning, and he had never taken care of family affairs, and he was always not good at money.
Hua Qiqi is actually the same, he has a lot of ability to spend money, but his ability to make money is very poor, otherwise he would not have sold things that no one eats in Mencius Temple before, and asked tentatively: "Mr. Zeng, how about a hundred times?" ”
"This ......" Zeng Gong hesitated, he knew that this money was indeed a drop in the bucket for some officials, but for an honest and self-disciplined official like him, even if he sold all his family funds, he might not be able to make up so much money.
"Mr. Zeng, if there are old friends or students among those officials, don't worry, you can come forward and pay for them first. Of course, this money is still from Childe. However, it's better for you to do it. If you do this, you won't break the rules. At this time, Hua Lanxi didn't know when she came to Zeng Gong's side and said softly.
What is most talked about in Cai's school is not knowledge, nor the craftsmanship of those craftsmen, but rules. There are no rules, and if you do anything in Cai's Academy, you are not allowed to follow the rules.
"Alright then!" Now that the worries have been solved, Zeng Gong also agreed to Hua Xuanyi's suggestion, and he also told Hua Xuanyi about Hua Lanxi's idea, of course this guy didn't dare, and he wouldn't have any opinions. In other words, if some of his old friends or the old generation of his past begged for him, it would have been difficult to speak, but now that there is such a workaround, he can also plead with Childe, isn't it?
However, most of the ministers of the law-changing faction are people who know how to be flexible, so naturally money is indispensable, and most of the officials teach money on the spot after hearing this.
The children were sent to Cai's School at that time, but Zeng Gong and Hua Qianqi did not dare to put these children directly into the inner wall, and they had to wait until Cai Dao came back, and those Langzhong were in place, and after diagnosing these children, they could not be released.
Just when everyone in Cai's Academy was anxiously waiting for Cai Dao's return, this kid was guilty.
Cai Dao obviously did a good thing, but he was still thrown into the prison in the palace by Song Shenzong for no reason, and he was naturally locked up as a big and small eunuch who committed a crime. Therefore, the smell in it must be worse than that of the prison of the Criminal Department. Of course, this is Cai Dao's own speculation, and he doesn't want to verify it.
Fortunately, Song Shenzong only punished this bold boy a little, and specially told Shi De to send a special person to take care of it, so Cai Dao slept on the hay, and there was a bed quilt cover on his body, except for enduring the unpleasant smell in the prison, he was not bullied.
In this way, Cai Dao spent a night in the prison in a daze.
The next day, it wasn't until three poles in the morning that Shi Deyi slowly and leisurely sent someone to release Cai Dao. It's not Cai Dao's hypocrisy, the eunuchs in the inner palace are even more cruel than the ministers of the two factions outside, and the eunuchs who commit crimes have no chance of getting ahead, so the food in the cell can't be swallowed at all. Since yesterday, Cai Dao has been hungry for a whole day.
When you walk in the aisle, there are stars in front of you.
"Gonggong Shi, the green mountains do not change, and the green water flows forever. Leave! Cai Dao was also very single, said a hidden word, arched his hand at everyone, and walked out of the palace wearing the clothes of a little eunuch.
"Manager Shi, this kid really doesn't know how to lift. What did he mean by that? Shi De's subordinates couldn't get used to Cai Dao's appearance, and said angrily.
Shi Deyi glanced at this subordinate, there was no dissatisfied expression on his face, and said lightly: "I hope it will be indefinite in the future!" When you see this kid in the future, don't provoke him. Could it be that you have forgotten that he cut down Concubine Zhu De's mother, and he only stayed in prison for one day. If it were you, the waist would be light. ”
The people present felt completely cold when they heard this, and suddenly remembered that the kid who had just left had only stayed in the palace for less than a day, and he had pierced the sky, and he was actually released like this.
It's really unprovoked!
After changing his clothes, the money he originally brought was naturally gone. Cai Dao was penniless, tired and hungry, and walked out of the palace for a long time, only then did he find a bazaar. After getting on the bus, Cai Dao immediately fainted in the carriage.
I don't know how long it took, Cai Dao felt that someone had been pushing him, and he didn't sleep well at all this night, and people who didn't sleep well were naturally very irritable, especially when others disturbed their sleep, so if he was not careful, Cai Dao slapped someone.
"This little father-in-law, the little one sent you to the place, wake up! Who are you looking for here? "This honest coachman also suffered an unwarranted disaster, not to mention that he didn't make a few dollars a day, so he was slapped in the face.
"Flowers, flowers, give money!" After a slap, Cai Dao already realized that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't wake up, and muttered in his mouth.
Fortunately, as soon as these words were spoken, the teacher's coachman really knew Hua Xuanyi, and this guy has relied on Cai Dao's reputation in recent years, and he is not a big figure in the inner city.
Since the little eunuch in front of him is looking for Uncle Hua, this coachman has finally settled down in his heart, even if he can't get the money in the end, he can send this little ancestor to the place, and he can be regarded as having completed his merits.
The effort was not great, and Hua Xianqi was brought to the front of the carriage, and at first glance, this guy was not a little father-in-law at all, but actually his own son-in-law. Touch it with your hand, good fellow, your forehead is frighteningly hot.
Hua Xianqi couldn't care about the coachman, so she hurriedly picked up Cai Dao and ran into the door. At this time, the outer door of Cai's School was already stationed in Langzhong, who had experience with smallpox.
I saw that Hua Xianyi squeezed away everyone, and gently put Cai Dao in front of the most famous Langzhong: "Hu Langzhong, you can see, what's wrong?" ”
When Hu Langzhong looked at the dress of the child in front of him, his heart trembled, and he stammered: "Flower...... Brother Flower, this is not ...... It's not right! It stands to reason that the father-in-law in this palace can't be healed by us people! ”
"What nonsense, my son-in-law just borrowed a set of clothes to wear temporarily, I don't believe you touch it! Hurry up and show my son-in-law, don't talk nonsense. Hua Xuanyi's heart was also angry, Cai Dao was arrested for no reason, and another person ran back sick for no reason.
Hu Lang muttered in the center, there is no child who can borrow this kind of clothes to wear, but he didn't dare to delay, first touched Cai Dao's crotch, there is really it! He breathed a sigh of relief and began to diagnose Cai Dao seriously.
"How? It's not that kind of disease, is it? Hua Qianqi also knew that when Lang Zhong was seeing a doctor, he couldn't be disturbed by the side, so he endured it all the time, knowing that he saw Hu Langzhong brushing up the mustache under his chin, so he asked.
"This son is fine, looking at his appearance, it is very likely that he is hungry and cold, and the cold enters the body, which causes a high fever. Although this son is a little darker, there is no red spot on his face, it should not be infected with that disease. ”
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Bodhisattva bless! ...... "I don't know what kind of immortal this guy believes in, and he kept muttering for a while, and then he suddenly remembered that Cai Dao had taught everyone before that the special treatment method that should be taken when encountering a fever patient.
