The old patriarch retreated, the reason Qian Heng was very clear, the current Qian family is no longer as prosperous as when Qian Yi was still alive, the Qian family, a big family, is not very good, a whole year's income, if you deduct the income from the surrounding land and the medical hall and pharmacy, you can leave a surplus of thousands of times a year, it is already a very good year.

Qian Heng also knew that if he did this by himself, it might take a lot of effort, since the old patriarch was able to put it forward to take over, and the request was not too much, so Qian Heng nodded and agreed without hesitation.

"Patriarch Grandpa, I can leave this money-making business to you to arrange, but I have promised the Li family couple on the outskirts of the city to let them help me do this, and I have also taught the Li family and his wife how to make a briquette stove~"

Without waiting for Qian Heng to finish speaking, the old patriarch laughed, "Brother Heng, you are kind-hearted, it is the blessing of my Qian family, you can rest assured that since the Li family and his wife know the tricks, of course they want to be reused by our Qian family!" ”

Solving the current crisis, coupled with the benefits that the briquette stove will bring to the Qian family, the old patriarch looked at Qian Heng, the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became.

The old patriarch picked the wick of the oil lamp, which made the study a little brighter, and pointed to the bookshelves on the two walls with his hand, "Brother Heng, do you have the ambition of Donghuamen roll call?" ”

This sudden question surprised Qian Heng.

Hurriedly asked, "Patriarch Grandpa, why are you here to ask?" ”

The old patriarch laughed, "In the past six months, I have seen that the books you have read are not only the medical prescriptions left by my brother, but also the classics of the scriptures?" Could it be that Brother Heng also has the ambition of Donghuamen roll call?

Qian Heng was embarrassed for a while, he read these books, not to test for any fame, but to feel that since he came to this Great Song Dynasty, he always had to understand some of the rules and routines of the Great Song Dynasty. After all, the Great Song Dynasty is a typical literati ruling the country, and the status of literati is almost higher than that of the emperor, at least in many cases, those ministers who have ascended to the throne through the imperial examination dare to say anything when facing Zhao Ji, the official uncle.

It is even said that after the founding emperor Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin set the rule that he could not be punished by doctors, these literati in the phase would not have any scruples in front of the emperor's official family.

Therefore, even if Qian Heng doesn't want to gain fame, he wants to try to understand how many of the rules in this literati circle can be valued by him.

Usually Qian Heng has some understanding of traditional culture, but at best he has an understanding, if he wants to gain fame and reach the level of Donghuamen roll call, it is impossible to rely on Qian Heng's ancient literary skills. It's just that the status of literati in the Northern Song Dynasty is too eye-catching.

Even if the Qian family has such a big family business, if it weren't for the fact that Old Man Qian Yi relied on his ability to become a scholar of Hanlin Medicine, I am afraid he would not be able to afford this huge family business. And the old patriarch in front of him was also because he was admitted to the identity of Xiucai, so he was pointed out by Qian Yi as the steward of the Qian family.

It is conceivable that during the entire Great Song Dynasty, literati with meritorious fame, as long as they were not clearly found guilty, could not kneel to officials, so after obtaining fame, as a literati, they had great privileges. This privilege is more valuable than saving lives and having a great reputation.

Since the old patriarch mentioned the reason for the roll call of Donghua Gate, Qian Heng also took this opportunity to explain.

"Patriarch Grandpa, I have actually considered this aspect, after all, our Qian family started with medical skills, but with the prestige of a doctor, it is far from enough to protect the family for a long time, so I have some random thoughts, if the patriarch Grandpa wants to hear it, I will tell you!"

The old patriarch nodded, "Okay, I also want to hear what Brother Heng has to think, your idea of making a briquette stove can bring a lot of benefits to the Qian family, if you can think of more ways to make the Qian family clan prosperous, I will represent the entire family and push you to the position of the future patriarch." ”

The old patriarch is quite open-minded, but this is also where the old man's vision is vicious, after living for so many years, he still has this vision.

Qian Heng in front of him was just a sixteen-year-old boy, but he was able to stand out among so many children of the Qian family, and he could also think of such a lucrative idea as a briquette stove, which was enough to make the old patriarch pay full attention to Qian Heng.

Qian Heng was not polite, as for the idea of making money, Qian Heng hadn't thought about doing too much, even in his eyes, there were a lot of livelihoods that could make a lot of profits. The most urgent thing to do in front of Qian Heng is to improve his identity.

Only when the identity reaches a certain position can we have more right to speak, and at the same time, we can also ensure that we can have more initiative when the big crisis arrives in the near future.

So Qian Heng was not polite, smiled and said directly.

"Patriarch Grandpa, I didn't want to be the patriarch of the Qian family, and I am not the material to be a patriarch, but the matter of gaining fame you just mentioned, I think you can try it, after all, the status of the literati is an important factor that can shelter whether our Qian family can grow and stabilize in the future. And to get famous, I didn't think about Donghuamen roll call, just to have the identity of a literati, it's enough! ”

The old patriarch nodded, and said with an appreciative face, "Yes, yes, I can have a self-aware mind, know what is desirable and what is not desirable, Brother Heng'er's realm, even the little old man admires it very much!" ”

Qian Heng smiled slightly, "Grandpa the patriarch said that I am also thinking about my future in the future, after all, if you want to start a family in the future, you must have something to rely on to support your life, right?" ”

The old patriarch thought so, "Yes, I can arrange people, you don't have to go to the medical hall to sit in the hall in the future, you can concentrate on studying the scriptures and classics, and my study will be yours!" ”

Qian Heng hurriedly got up and bowed to salute, "Patriarch Xie Grandpa!" ”

The old patriarch laughed and said, "If Brother Heng can get famous, but it is more valuable to the Qian family than sitting in the hospital, I will help you arrange your identity as a child, it just so happens that this year's county test has been postponed and arranged to be held at the end of the year, if you are sure, I will help you register!" ”

"Thank you, Patriarch, Grandpa for bothering!"

After setting the goal of referring to the county examination, Qian Heng completely put down the matter of the briquette stove and handed it over to the old patriarch to deal with, while he concentrated on studying the classics.
