The people in the village all cast approving glances at Liu Yuanshan, and Li Zheng twisted his beard with a smile and said, "San Lang is really smart and has solved a problem for the old man." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Everyone knows that the Gan family is poor, but the rent collected in the temple is really not much, and it is also very troublesome to deal with it, after all, there are many Gan families, and it is not good if the conflict is intensified.

After a while, a few strong men of the Gan family came out with a small cart of grain, walked to the door and said loudly: "Who in the village has livestock to borrow for us, and the mountain road is not easy to walk!" ”

Wang Xiucai heard that the wind had just arrived, so he saw this scene, and said: "My family has it, just let Wang Wu bring it to you." He didn't know the situation and asked the people around him, "Aren't you unwilling to pay the rent?" How can you be willing now? ”

The people around him talked about what had just happened, and they didn't forget to praise Liu Yuanshan after finishing the event, and said: "Liu Jiazaburo is really smart, it's a pity not to study, if you were born in a rich family, maybe you will still be a champion in the future!" ”

Wang Xiucai glanced at Liu Yuanshan meaningfully, and saw that he was hairy, so he hurriedly hid in the crowd and set his eyes on the car rental.

The rules of the Ming Dynasty tenants, if you are ruthless, you will divide the accounts in three or seven, and the tenants will account for seventy percent of the landlords and receive three percent, and generally speaking, there will be more two or eight accounts, which is also in line with the rules of the Xiangyang area. Liu Yuanshan has heard all his life say that the land they gave to Lao Gan's family in the temple was agreed to collect 10% of the rent, that is, the meaning of extracting land use fees at almost 15%.

According to the agricultural output of Xiangyang, if all the two seasons are converted into rice, the output of a good annual income per mu is about 450 catties, and all the 30 acres of land are rented out of the temple to collect 2,000 catties, which is enough for the rations and daily necessities of the three masters and apprentices of the monastery, which is not much.

A farce ended perfectly, and he was very happy all his life, and said to the old host: "Master, I'll go play with San Lang for a while!" ”

The old host nodded with a smile and saluted Liu Yuanshan again: "Thanks to the little donor today!" ”

Liu Yuanshan returned the salute and said: "Good and evil have their own rewards, in fact, it is the blessing of the Buddha, the kid didn't do anything, don't take it to heart." ”

After pretending to be forced, he picked up a few friends and ran away, and returned to the mountain with Uncle Mao to see the charcoal cave again.

Although it was cold in autumn, the temperature still rose slightly at noon, and when Liu and Liu Yanran were washing clothes by the pond in front of their house, they suddenly saw a man in white walking to the door of their house, knocked on the door very politely, and then shouted inside: "Is anyone at home?" ”

Old Mrs. Dong's rough voice came from inside, and said, "No one, no one!" ”

In the feudal era, men and women were defended, and no one in the family said whether there were men or not, and now the eldest son Liu Xiaozhong went out to study, and the second son Liu Xiaohou went to the field to finish the farm work, and there were a bunch of half-dozen children and women at home.

"Mother, that seems to be Wang Xiucai!" Liu Yanran's cheeks were slightly red, and she whispered to Liu, who was careless and didn't pay attention to her daughter's unusual reaction.

"Wang Xiucai, what is he doing at our house?" In Liu's impression, Wang Xiucai is almost the top of the village, what is such a character who can talk to the county magistrate doing in his own house if he has nothing to do?

"Auntie, it's me, I'm Wang Xun!" Wang Xiucai had no intention of leaving, and said another word inside.

"Ah......" Mrs. Dong immediately changed her attitude, hurriedly ran over to open the door, looked at Wang Xiucai and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Master Xiucai, please come in!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Wang Xun saluted and said, "My aunt can call me by my name, and you can call me Wang Xiucai, but you can't call me master!" ”

"That's a lot of trouble for the people!" Don't look at Mrs. Dong's usual training of her family members one by one, when she sees a person who is famous or an official, she begins to be afraid in her heart, after all, Wang Xiucai is famous, and he is exempt from taxes.

Wang Xiucai entered Liu's house, and Liu Yanran said to Liu: "Mother, let's go in and have a look!" ”

Liu Shi just washed the clothes at hand, so he agreed to Liu Yanran's request, nodded and said, "Let's go, help me carry this pot of clothes into the yard, it's time to dry." ”

The two laboriously carried the big wooden basin into the courtyard, Wang Xiucai was standing in the middle of the courtyard, and when he saw Liu Yanran and Liu, he was full of smiles and said, "Come, I'll help you!" ”

"Oh, Master Xiucai, don't dare to be it!" Liu Yanran said with a smile and blocked Wang Xiucai back.

Dong asked cautiously, "I don't know what you have to say, Master Xiucai?" ”

Although she knows that she usually has no hatred with this Wang Xiucai, and she also knows that Wang Xiucai usually treats people kindly, but at this moment, facing such a character, Dong is still very scared in her heart, what she is most worried about is, is it that the family has offended Wang Xiucai?

Wang Xiucai was a little difficult to speak. He naturally came here for Liu Yuanshan's study, in his eyes, Liu Yuanshan is an uncarved jade, although he is a little older now, but as long as he is willing to study hard, his future future is limitless with his intelligence.

But the problem is that Liu Yuanshan doesn't study!

It's not difficult to accept a student who doesn't want to study, but if a teacher begs a student to worship him as a teacher, it's really a bit of a shame.

So Wang Xiucai decided to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle and start from Liu Yuanshan's family!

Now when I heard Dong's question, I felt speechless for a while, but fortunately, he was a talent, and his thinking and knowledge were far beyond the ability of ordinary people, so he threw away a trace of mustard in an instant, and secretly said that since he came, he was not afraid of being embarrassed.

"That's right!" Wang Xiucai looked at Dong with a smile and said: "Auntie, forgive me, I think your grandson is very smart, far better than ordinary children, although he is already a little old, but it is not too late to learn now, as long as he is diligent and willing to learn, he will definitely be able to win a reputation in the future." ”

Originally, I wanted to say that it was beneficial to the country and the people, but I thought it would not have much effect, so I started from my vital interests and lobbied the Dong family.

Dong was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and then asked a very practical question: "Are you saying that my grandson will be able to take the exam like you in the future?" ”

"Huh!" Wang Xiucai laughed and said: "If he is diligent and inquisitive, with his intelligence, what is a mere showman, I think he will rise to the top in the future, and he will have the talent to enter the picture." These words are half-truths and half-falses, in order to make Dong's heart move.

The Dong family is really tempted, think about what the family has been supporting for more than 20 years for the eldest to study? Isn't it for fame and fortune to glorify the ancestors, and not because once a scholar gains fame, his whole family can be rich?
