Chapter 63: A scolding from Xia Qian
Eat the Yuqing Fang, are full of praise, said that the taste is unique, very delicious, this did not eat the people, naturally like a cat scratching in their hearts, and not to say that it is really delicious or fake delicious, ten cents, buy a curious, poor people are not bad for these ten cents, rich people are not bad for money. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
A table full of tofu costs 50 yuan, but the cost is 40 yuan. Ten tables of tofu a day, the money earned is a hundred copper coins, and it is three taels of silver in a month. Today, just selling this Yuqing recipe made a tael of silver, and this cost is only the cost of a table of tofu, and Sister-in-law Mei naturally smiled from ear to ear.
The shop closed, and the couple who had worked hard all day counted the copper coins, not to mention how happy they were.
"How?" Lin Lan slowly sat in front of the stall, "They all said that we are here to make money, how can we lose money?" β
"Lin Xiaoguan is really powerful, he is so good at doing business."
Lin Lan smiled, he just grasped the weak point of human nature.
"By the way, I see that there are still so many people who want to eat today, why don't the little officials let them sell?"
Lin Lan smiled: "You can eat one thing if you want to, but no one is very interested." On the contrary, the more he can't get it, the more he wants it. Sister-in-law Mei, you are optimistic, don't talk about noon tomorrow, it is estimated that someone will come to line up at the time of the hour, you have to remember, you must not open the door early. β
"Mm-hmm, they all listen to the petty officials."
Lin Lan thought for a while and said, "One more point, when business gets better, there will inevitably be people who covet it, if someone spends a high price to buy your secret recipe, remember, you can't do the thing of killing chickens and taking eggs." Don't reveal the secret recipe to others for the sake of momentary interests. If it's rotten on the street, it's not easy to sell. β
"Uh-huh, I know that." Although Da Niu looked simple, he understood the meaning of Lin Lan's words.
"Little official, here is 500 yuan, you ......"
Lin Lan pushed it away directly and said, "Sister-in-law Mei is polite." In the future, how much daily turnover and profit you make, you just need to have an approximate number in mind, and I will not come to check the accounts. At the end of each month, I will come to get a share, and if you don't come, you will accumulate it. I believe in you. β
"The little official is really big-bellied."
Lin Lan was just about to get up to say goodbye when he heard a cold snort from behind.
"Yu Qingfang, hum."
Lin Lan hadn't come back to her senses yet, and blurted out: "I'm sorry, it's closed today...... Mr? β
He looked up and suddenly saw that gloomy face, and he felt a little embarrassed.
"Are you embarrassed to call me sir? You're going to lose all the teacher's face! Wen Shuli and a few people came to pay homage to me, saying that they were proud protΓ©gΓ©s of the teacher, and now they don't study, and they sell tofu with people on the street. β
When Lin Lan heard this, it was the stinky boy of the Wen family who provoked the trouble, it seemed that he should have seen him and Sister-in-law Mei and his wife have dealings, and he said nonsense in front of Xia Qian, and said slowly: "Mr. misunderstood." The students were just helping Mrs. Mei and his wife, not trading. β
The sun is dusk, and the cold wind is grinning.
Xia Qian was dressed in cloth, the collar button around his neck was tightly sealed, tightly attached to his throat, and his eyes were almost on fire, "Reading is self-cultivation, how can you run around all day long for yellow and white things." β
Lin Lan narrowed her eyes and said with a smile: "Students don't want to waste a good year, it's just that the New Year is approaching, and they are a little nervous at hand, so they are just engaged in investment." β
"Investment?"
"Oh, just put in the capital."
Xia Qian patted Lin Lan on the shoulder, obviously not sincerely punishing, "You, you really don't want to worry about being a teacher." Do you know what is being spread in Yangzhou City now? β
"What?"
"Hmph. The spring breeze does not pass the jade gate! Liangzhou words, Liangzhou words. The throat of the ancient road in the northwest, I am afraid that many poets will be attracted to the northwest because of your Liangzhou poem. Xia Qian's old-fashioned face seemed to have a hint of pride, but it was more melancholy. Teach a show under his hand to lift people, nothing; But teaching a talented person is what he hopes for all his life.
Lin Lan said goodbye to Sister-in-law Mei and his wife, walked out of the shop with Xia Qian, and after instructing Shun to go back first, he said calmly: "A few days ago, students went to Jinling to study, but they were not in Yangzhou City, not greedy for money as you said, and abandoned literature to engage in business. β
"Oh? But went to Wende College? β
"So Sir knows."
The smile on Xia Qian's face became even stronger, "It's like thunder." The person who can enter Wende College is not a mediocre person, it seems that you have met a nobleman. Let's go eat at the Master's Mansion tonight. Your master and mother cooked the meal, and the girl at home has been clamoring to see you since you left, but you are really heartless, and suddenly went to Jinling, and did not say goodbye to your teacher. β
"People have three urgencies, and it was also a temporary decision at that time, so I didn't have time to inform you, sir."
"With your poetic talent, the old man asserts that he can lift people, but he is afraid that Mu Xiu will be urged in the forest, and as soon as this Liangzhou poem comes out, the teacher is even more worried about your future."
Lin Lan asked in a low voice, "What do you say, sir?" β
Xia Qian was silent for a moment, looked at the young man beside him who was already as tall as himself, and said, "Lin Lan, you are sharp, and you are the one who hurts the most in the end." Your Liangzhou poem tells the story of the northwest frontier, such a poetic sense is contrary to the current flow of the Lord and the Lord, so I am worried that your career will be hindered. β
"Thank you, sir, for your concern." Lin Lan was a little wronged in this pot. I said it casually that day, but I didn't expect to be used by those old men as the banner of the main battle.
Xia Qian also understood that someone deliberately publicized it, and it was not Lin Lan's idea, so he patted him on the shoulder and said: "It's a good thing to be talented, but remember, wood shows in the forest, and the wind will destroy it, so you must protect yourself." β
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Student understands. But how powerful a poem can be, is that the gentleman thinks too much. β
Xia Qian snorted twice and said, "The situation is stronger than people. Although I don't know how much influence your Liangzhou poem will have in the temple, it has already made many people in Jinling who lived in seclusion and fought in the main battle back out of the mountain! β
"Someone's making trouble?"
Xia Qian nodded, don't look at the rotten and dull, literati have a circle of literati, some gossip, Xia Qian knows a lot, "Some people set up a stage to sing, naturally some people beat the side drum." You opened the gong and lit a cannon battle. β
Xia Qian's house is not magnificent, some are simple and elegant, with black tiles and white walls.
The two big iron trees in front of the door, Lin Lan still remembered clearly. At the beginning, Xia Qian scolded Zhang Daliang, the son of the Zhang family, saying that the wooden fish head of the Zhang family boy would open his mind, and the iron tree was about to bloom, but the iron tree at the door really bloomed, and Zhang Daliang was happy for a long time, and he kept bragging in the academy, saying that he was going to become a genius, and finally was punished by Xia Qian, who had a gloomy face, for copying the three-character scripture a hundred times.
