Chapter Eight: Chen Dafu (II)

If you want to talk about your father, Chen Yu's most profound memory is his mercenary businessman nature, what kind of morality and righteousness is a fart in Chen Dafu's eyes, his own father does things, if it is not beneficial to you, don't count on it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It is also ridiculous to say, he did not rely on others, but on his own son, if you want to say that the Chen family started in Qiantang, that is, in the past three or four years, why is it said that the Chen family started is the credit of Chen Yu?

Four years ago, Daddy Chen was still pouring some animal skins, this guy and the textile that eight poles can not be matched, once Daddy Chen took Chen Yu to send supplies to the mayor of Qiantang County Commercial Society, this kind of animal skin is not good, it is still very popular to make winter clothes.

This trading company is a kind of non-governmental organization organized by some businessmen, and its purpose is to discuss some market dynamics, and to maintain some meager market resources, and then to donate a little money during the sacrifice of the community, heaven and earth, water rivers, and harvests.

If you are poor, you will take revenge on the society, and if you are rich, you will repay the society, and what they hold may be this noble mentality.

The surname of the Shang Society is Fang, it is said that when he was a child, his family was surrounded by four walls, this situation can be traced back to three generations ago, after he was poor, the first goal was to eat, and he did not have the leisure time to study what sages are not sages, there is no culture, this name is also messed up, so his father thought of his grandfather, and gave him the name of Fang Ba.

Fang Ba, a native of Dangshan County, is a fellow of the homeowner, and came to Qiantang County with the homeowner ten years ago, but the strange thing is that he has very infrequent contacts with the homeowner, and even strangers, but somehow, after Fang Ba came to Qiantang County, it can be described as smooth sailing.

If you want to say which industry is good now, tooth shop, pawn shop, but these two industries are shameful in the commercial industry, this tooth shop, to put it bluntly, is an intermediary, this kind of black-hearted person even dares to make money from the dead, don't expect it to be good. There is also a pawn is the same, there is a popular phrase called "nine out of thirteen", in the later generations, that is, usury, for which there are not a few people who are bankrupt.

There is also a very legitimate, but also the most popular business of businessmen nowadays, is textile, textile is the most famous in Suzhou and Hangzhou, is the crown of the sea, and has appeared in some areas of Suzhou and Hangzhou "machine household investment, machine worker contribution" employment phenomenon.

These three big business lines are involved in Fang Ba, and the bigger and bigger, soon they will gain a firm foothold in Qiantang, I don't know whether it is with their own ability, or other methods, Fang Ba's business is getting better and better, after just three years, it has become the leader of Qiantang County's business, and then a year, I don't know who gave the idea, he won over most of the local businessmen, formed this Qiantang Chamber of Commerce, and he was appointed as the president.

Four years ago, Chen Yu was fourteen years old, and Chen Yu at that time had red lips and white teeth, a dignified appearance, and a polite and reasonable person, who was full of words when he spoke, so that Fang Mu fell in love at a glance.

This Fang Mu is Fang Ba, the businessman is more superstitious, after Fang Ba developed, he found a Yin and Yang Mr. fortune telling, the Yin and Yang Mr. measured the lack of water and wood in the five lines of Fang Ba after calculating the birth date of Fang Ba, after learning about it, Fang Ba found Xiucai in the county to re-change the name, so he changed the name of Fang Mu.

The reason why Fang Mu fell in love with Chen Yu was mainly because he saw the value of Chen Yu, so he stubbornly married Chen Dafu.

After this back and forth, the Chen family started a silk business, and it got better and better, and its reputation has spread throughout Hangzhou.

Therefore, the development of the Chen family is inseparable from Chen Yu.

But somehow, Daddy Chen didn't seem to get rich a little bit after his career, but his life was very light, he loved money like his life, and he had a typical poor mentality.

Last time, I lost my jade board, and Father Chen didn't think about tea and food for three days, so this time when I saw Chen Yu bring people back, I should be vigilant.

Chen Yu pulled his father and whispered in Chen Dafu's ear: "Dad, this is not the last time, this guy is an official." ”

When Daddy Chen heard Chen Yu's words, he was startled, and wanted to scold Chen Yu loudly, but looked back at Zhu Shou who was smiling, so he endured it again, and had to whisper to Chen Yu: "You little calf, I see you studying the sage book on weekdays, and I don't know how many times I have snickered at your father, but why do you always go out to cause trouble recently?" I won't talk about the ruffian I brought back last time, your dad still lost some things......"

"I don't think much of it." Chen Yu interjected.

"Bastard!" Chen Dafu whispered: "Money is all external things, but you provoked the officials, how can you let me do it?" Sooner or later, my little family will be lost by you! ”

"Look, you just said that you don't care about money, money is something outside the body." Chen Yu said aggrievedly.

"Shut up, we're not talking about money now, what are these two guys doing? Who have you offended? Do they want to pay compensation or what? You will soon take the entrance examination, and you can't go to the yamen for anything to affect your reputation, how much do they cost...... Your dad gives it all! Chen Dafu's teeth were gritting, looking at that look, he couldn't wait to eat Chen Yu.

Grandpa Tai has a decision: "Fuzhou County students, if there is a major event in their own family, Xu father, brother, brother, and nephew have the official to distinguish and analyze, it is not a major matter, and it is affectionate and forbearing, and it is not easy to be public." ”

Students who are studying are not allowed to go to the yamen without a reason to go to the yamen, and the Ming generation has very strict control over students, such as: all the benefits and diseases of the military and civilians are not allowed to be made by students. It is forbidden to discuss matters and so on.

The main reason why so many were decided was to maintain the rule of the Zhu Ming Dynasty.

The Zhu family ruled the world with literature, so the first thing to do was to control the conduct of scholars, from the imperial examination, a product of the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang did very successfully, and successfully imprisoned the minds of many scholars.

"Dad, don't be impulsive, they're not here to ask for money!" Chen Yu said.

Chen Dafu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Oh, that's okay. ”

"Oh, do they want people?" Chen Dafu exclaimed.

"Neither nor not!" Chen Yu briefly explained everything in the market, emphasizing that he did not offend Li County's order, and also showed some gifts.

Father Chen breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Chen Yu's words, he turned his head with a smile, came to Zhu Shou's side, and said with a smile: "Xiao'er can make a polite and personable friend like Zhu Gongzi, I am really fortunate in my three lives, Zhu Gongzi regards this place as his home, don't be polite, otherwise I will be angry?" ”

"Huh? Is what Uncle Chen said serious? Zhu Shou asked happily.

Chen Dafu stroked his sparse beard and said: "Naturally, take it seriously, Zhu Gongzi will stay, ugly life, take Zhu Gongzi to the best room to rest, and then hurry back to class, if the teacher is angry, Lao Tzu will chop you!" ”

"Daddy! The university has a cloud of "being a gentleman, stopping at benevolence; To be a minister, stop at respect; As a son of man, he ends in filial piety; To be a father, stop at kindness"Ah! Chen Yu said.

"Ci your uncle, don't drag the text with Lao Tzu, if Xiucai can't pass, I'll pick your skin!"

If you have to define your father, it is unreasonable, Chen Yu had no choice but to leave with Zhu Shou in disgrace.

After finding a good guest room for Zhu Shou, it was already time to hold the lamp, and this day's running was tiring enough, Chen Yu instructed his subordinates to get a little hot water for Zhu Shou to soak his feet, and he walked straight towards the "Ming Auditorium".

This "Ming Auditorium" is not the same concept as the temple school, this is the name given by Chen Yu's teacher after teaching.

Don't look at Chen Dafu's surprise, but Chen Yu's education is absolutely unstingy, the twenty-foot square Ming Auditorium is illuminated by several lamps like daylight, and this oil lamp alone is a lot of expenses, enough for the poor people's living expenses for more than a month.

Of course, in such a big school, Chen Yu is not the only one who accepts the teaching to solve his doubts, Chen Dafu deliberately asked some relatives and children in the clan to accompany him in order to make Chen Yu study less lonely.

In this year, the poor people have no money to invite Mr. Xixi, and then a little more than the sky, that is, a township to pool money to invite a gentleman, of course, please also some old talents who are not enough to know, their own word count has not been known, what level of students do you say can be taught?

Therefore, as soon as Chen Dafufu said that he wanted to pick some children to study for free, it was really a good thing to break his head.

In the end, Chen Dafu selected more than a dozen children with good qualifications to study with Chen Yu in the Chen Mansion, Chen Dafu still has another plan to do this, in case some of these children develop in the future, naturally they will not forget him Chen Dafu's good!

Chen Yu came to the school, and there was a man in his thirties sitting in the direction of the south and north of the school, holding a long pen in his hand, and was sitting and painting seriously.

His own teacher is not only surprisingly good at learning, but also a hand of Zhao Tizi is also one of the four masters of the previous dynasty Zhao Mengfu true biography, it stands to reason that his teacher according to this level, the test of a jinshi and the first is not a problem at all, but according to him, he only took the test to lift people, and he will not be allowed to enter in the future, and then he will study the art of Danqing every day, and the landscape is painted surprisingly well!

"Teacher." Chen Yu respectfully greeted the teacher who was not too old.

Somehow, although Chen Yu is now Shen Can, he has a heartfelt respect for this Teacher Tang.

This person claimed to be named Tang Yixun, who was not a scholar, and was a resident of the hermitage field, and was directly subordinate to the Suzhou Prefecture.

Tang Yixun didn't look up, he was still painting seriously, and said lightly while drawing: "Recite the Tao Te Ching, and return to the position after memorizing, and if you can't finish memorizing it, you will be punished." ”

Tang Yixun's way of punishing people is not unlike the rest of the teachers, they all beat their hands with a ring ruler, don't look at Chen Yu is now eighteen, and his hands are often beaten red, swollen and swollen.

The punishment is the same as others, but the content of the professor is very different from others, these days Teacher Tang never teaches Chen Yu about the Four Books and Five Classics and the Eight Strands of the article anything, all day long is to teach Chen Yu some partial books, such as "Huainanzi", "Wu Zi", "Qi Min Yaoshu", "Qianjin Fang", these things that no one will dabble in nowadays, but Teacher Tang not only let Chen Yu learn, but also let Chen Yu memorize, and even understand!

"The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous; The beginning of the nameless world; The mother of all things ...... "This is Tang Yixun's study for Chen Yu yesterday, although Chen Yu is given a day off today, he will not let Chen Yu be idle."

Chen Yu's memory is still good, and he finished reciting the 5,000-word "Tao Te Ching" after a while, and then went straight back to his seat.

Everyone in the school learns the same content, so the endorsement is naturally disorganized.

Tang Yixun heard a child in the front row reciting the thousand-character text of enlightenment with serious efforts: "Heaven and earth are yellow, the universe is desolate, the sun and the moon are shining, and the sun and moon are shining. ”

He couldn't help but put down his pen and ink, looked at the serious child, and sighed to himself: "The young man doesn't know what it's like to be sad, and he falls in love with the floor." Fall in love with the floor, and worry about the new words. ”

Chen Yu happened to be sitting in the front row, and Tang Yixun's words were clearly heard in his ears, as if this sentence covered all the vicissitudes of the world.
