"Then let's go to the door and apologize first." Master Zhao, who seemed to be very taciturn in appearance, opened his mouth for the first time, "He is an official, we are the people, not to mention that we neglected him in the first place, at this time, put down his body and apologize well, I think it will always have some effect." We were only three quarters of an hour late in total, but this new Guangdong Governor Imperial History was able to convince the businessmen who had dealt with us just now, and even for our situation, it was not just a matter of means, but should have taken out the good things that Master Huang Qi had just mentioned as bait. In the face of interests, what is a little face? ”

Master Yan knew that Mr. Zhao's family had a thin population, but he had sprung up in the Guangzhou merchant gang by himself, and he was also the number one person among many Cantonese businessmen, but it was this side of business and business that made many people stay away from him. Hearing him say this at this moment, coupled with the fact that Feng Sanye nodded despite his reluctance, it was naturally impossible for him to ignore the overall situation in order to maintain his face. However, after they hurried out of the teahouse and rushed to the county office, they hit a soft nail again.

"Lord Wang is not in the county office."

"Why isn't it there? We just saw Lord Wang and Gu Xianzun come out of the teahouse together! Feng Sanye was already full of complaints, and he couldn't suppress the fire at this time, "If you want to block the car, you can also think of a good excuse!" ”

"If you say you're not there, you're not here, what's the matter, I still have to report to you on the whereabouts of the Imperial History?" The county government's concierge was not easy to deal with, at this time, his eyes were wide, and his words were not only stiff, but he was also like eating gunpowder, "Gu Xianzun is back, but Wang Xun went to the Xiangshan School Palace halfway." Look, you're not a reader either. I only know about the copper smell......"

Feng Sanye was really trembling with anger. If it weren't for Master Yan and Master Zhao to pull him away immediately, I am afraid that his rich son would have quarreled with a porter in front of the county yamen. When he left the county gate, he was still a little resentful, but he didn't expect Master Zhao to sigh and say: "Although the gatehouse is ruthless, it also shows the biggest regret in my life." If it weren't for the poverty of my family at the beginning, why would I have abandoned the field and entered the shopping mall after being admitted to the show, and now my family is rich, but my children and grandchildren have no aura of reading. I'm afraid it's really going to smell copper. ”

Master Zhao's words, but Master Yan and Feng Sanye have no resonance, after all, they have been studying since they were children, that is, reading a few classics of history and history, so that they will not be ridiculed and illiterate, and they have no fame. It's just that after these words, Feng Sanye didn't have the strength to be so annoyed, so he could only mutter to himself. But when he came to the school palace in a sedan chair, he glanced at the place. But I couldn't help but exclaim softly.

The vastness of its land is not inferior to the school palaces in Nanhai and Panyu counties in Guangzhou City! No wonder it is said that Xiangshan has produced a lot of people over the years!

At this time, the sun is already quite hot. Fortunately, there are always shaded green trees around the school palace, and the group directly found a place to park the carriage and horses, and Master Zhao said lightly: "If you come, you will be safe, before people were waiting for us, now we are waiting for others, wait!" ”

Just after talking to a group of copper-smelling businessmen, Wang Fulin turned around and came to this Xiangshan School Palace, preaching and educating the talents, saying that they were sages, but they were also the leaders. Of course, he also knows very well that sitting in his current official position at his own age and wanting to be approachable to these arrogant scholars is definitely asking for hardship, and it will be boring to be squeezed by others when the time comes. Therefore, even if he is not as stern and rigid as those old masters, he deliberately shows off his official authority, and his whole person exudes a cold atmosphere that no one can approach.

This was decided a day earlier, coupled with the effect of Zhang Juzheng's rectification of academic politics, anyway, today's huge Minglun Hall is full of talents, there are hundreds, it is really a great challenge in this sultry weather, and there are even many white-headed old students. Even if many Xiucai were very envious, jealous and hateful of Wang Fulin at that young age, he could only sit down honestly and remain motionless.

After all, although Wang Fulin is not the Grand Master of the Admiralty School, the influence on the Grand Master of the Imperial History is not trivial.

Although inspecting a county is indispensable for inspecting schools, Wang Fulin also knows the weather in Guangzhou, and he has already let people burn herbal tea to relieve the heat, so he improvised for two quarters of an hour on Zhang Juzheng's rectification of the school and political sparseness. Fortunately, Wang Fulin seemed to have listened to the hint of the county school Zhang Jiao, and all the talents in the county were very talented, which made the next few talents who were afraid of spot-checking themselves relieved. Finally when today's school inspection was about to end, Wang Fulin suddenly asked, "How many students are there in this county now?" ”

This was originally a question that was not difficult to answer, however, Zhang Jiaoyu's face changed drastically: "Forty years old, this is the system at the beginning of the country, and the county school palace naturally follows the ancestral system. Speaking of which, in the middle of last year's Dao test, the county only selected a total of three students, all of whom were epiphytes. ”

Wang Fulin just asked casually, originally not expecting a different answer, but when he heard that a total of three Xiucai had been taken, his face still froze instantly. At this time, he was walking from Minglun Hall to the gate of the School Palace, but he couldn't help but glance back at Zhang Jiaoyu, until he was sure that the other party was saying this to him, and he frowned. At this time, Zhang Jiaoyu, who personally sent him, lowered his voice again and said: "My lord, the former Shexian Xuegong Feng Jiaoyu and I are fellow villagers, and once mentioned to me that adults are talented, righteous and kind, and the most young talent. ”

It's such a coincidence, this guy is the same township as the original Shexian Feng Jiaoyu?

Even if several years have passed, Wang Fulin will certainly not forget that when he was still a talent, he managed the teaching master Feng of the huge Shexian School Palace. Although this Master Feng reprimanded him indiscriminately the first time they met, in addition to pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages, he was generally a relatively kind person. Moreover, Ye Dacang cleaned up those crooks and stickers in She County, and it was Feng Jiaoyu who took over the errand of writing "The New Book of Deception", and asked Ye Dacang to write the preface, and the first volume printed and distributed was circulated in many prefectures and counties in Huizhou Prefecture and even Nanzhili, which was indeed very helpful in preventing fraud cases.

It's just that after he returned to his hometown to "recuperate" from high school, Feng Jiaoyu had already left office. This "New Book of Du Deception" has temporarily become a guillotine book for eunuchs. Now I meet my old acquaintance in another country. Zhang Jiaoyu obviously had something to say. Wang Fulin smiled slightly, then nodded and said, "Teacher Feng helped me a lot in She County back then, and asked Zhang Jiaoyu to go back and send greetings." Speaking of which, I still want him to do it, continue to write down Du Li's new book, and I will visit him after a while. ”

"It must be, if Brother Feng knows the kindness of the adults, he will definitely be very happy. In fact, he is a native of Haiyang County, Chaozhou Prefecture. and Haojing, a wealthy businessman, and the Feng family of Chaozhou Mansion. After quietly helping his fellow villagers and Wang Fulin to reconnect with each other, Zhang Jiaoyu returned to the point and continued to talk about the first student, which was nothing more than saying that the great master was too strict with the great master and so on.

Speaking of this, Wang Fulin immediately thought of the fact that when he passed through Qujiang County, Shaozhou Prefecture, and stayed in the inn, there was an errand who came to inform the inn to remember to make room for Xiucai, who participated in the scientific examination, and after hesitating for a moment, he simply said to Zhang Jiaoyu. With his current status, Zhang's teachings are just a small county school. Even many talents don't take people seriously, so he doesn't have to worry about what tricks the other party plays. Really. As soon as he mentioned this matter, Zhang Jiaoyu immediately scoffed: "My lord, that great master is also my top boss, not me poking people in the back, this is a full **** to set up an archway!" ”

Because Wang Fulin is a native of Nanzhili, Zhang Jiaoyu has always spoken official language today, and at this moment, he slightly brought out a bit of Chaoshan accent, which is really full of anger and an open-minded posture. He took a deep breath, and then said with a gloomy face: "Although Lord Shoufu ordered the rectification of the school administration, saying that children must be truly talented and practical in order to enter the school, but our Guangdong has always been a treasure of great things, outstanding people, and there are countless famous academies. As far as we are in Xiangshan County, how can we admit three students in one session of the Dao Examination? Don't look at him in Shaozhou Mansion like that, do you know how many students he took last year? Two or three per county! This is simply too much! ”

Wang Fulin thought about comforting Zhang Jiaoyu in turn, but the middle-aged man who was angry and angry said angrily: "Historically, the county minister, the main book, the canonical history, and the teachings were originally as long as they were not officials of the county and the government, but this great master had to think that I was from Chaozhou Mansion, and it was not suitable to be this teacher in Xiangshan County. Don't you know to look at the map, although Haiyang and Xiangshan are all in Guangdong, but the two places are thousands of miles apart! Moreover, since I took office as a teacher, the local student has been obedient, didn't he just see that I often came to give lectures by famous Confucians? But if the name Confucianism doesn't come, just the county learns the original person, which show is willing to come to the point? ”

"Okay, you don't have to say any more."

Although it was just a sentence that cherished words like gold, Zhang Jiaoyu immediately closed his mouth. Of course, he knew that there was a world of difference between himself as a mere nine-rank teacher and a great master of the four grades, and even the patrol of the imperial history around him, if there was no very stable and accurate evidence, it would be absolutely impossible to do anything about the teaching. But if he didn't vomit in his throat, he knew that if he said it, it might not only be useless, but also cause great harm, but he still said it, and his heart was a lot happier at this time. Seeing that he was about to reach the gate, he suddenly heard Wang Fulin, who was half a step ahead of him, say a word without replying.

"The issue of the number of students, I will naturally find a way to mention it when I have a chance in the future, Zhang Jiaoyu, you can relax."

Zhang Jiaoyu was stunned for a moment, until Wang Fulin had already gone out, he woke up like a dream, hurriedly walked two steps out of the door, and then said deeply: "Thank you Wang Xun, the next official sends off the adult!" ”

Feng Sanye and the others, who were waiting under the shade of the trees over there, first saw Wang Fulin go out first, and then a few people followed closely behind, and waited until Zhang Jiaoyu sent out the gate and saluted, and called it so, where did they not know that the main master had come out. To say that it was almost lunch time at this moment, they were hungry and waited here, not daring to leave, so they didn't have time to think about Zhang Jiaoyu's respectful attitude, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Master Wang, the previous appointment with the teahouse was that the three of us were stumped by the emergency transmission from our hometown halfway, and it was definitely not deliberately delayed. Please also ask Lord Wang Ye to have a large number of tens of millions of sea hans. ”

Outside the teahouse before, Wang Fulin had already seen these three, and at this time, Master Zhao, who was behind Master Yan, also followed the salute to apologize, but the youngest Feng Sanye looked a little reluctant, he smiled, but said casually: "Anyway, I just wanted to gather the businessmen of Haojing to chat casually, there is nothing major, you miss it." ”

Even if he is just a child of a rich family, Zhao Sanye, who has never experienced major events, knows that Wang Fulin's words are insincere, not to mention Master Yan and Master Zhao? After waiting for so long, how could they give up halfway because of Wang Fulin's momentary pushing, and they had to say a lot of good things, plus Feng Sanye finally knew how to lower the shelf, and they finally ushered in a little turnaround.

"Since you must ask, then I will open the skylight and speak brightly. During this trip to the mirror, I saw the rebellion on the Lisbon on the dock, and I felt that even if the imperial court collected the tax, the mirror was completely handed over to the Franco, but it was really like someone sleeping on the side of the couch. However, after all, this matter has been more than 20 years, and I don't want to change it easily. Since the original ancestral system was that after the boats docked, they all went to Guangzhou on a regular basis, and now almost all of them have been moved to Haojing, then, since the 36 lines were allowed to hold Macao tickets to calculate export taxes, it is better to set up an institution in Haojing. ”

Seeing that the three representatives of the wealthy businessmen of the Guangzhou merchant gang on the opposite side were all terrified, obviously thinking that he was going to do something again, Wang Fulin smiled and said: "My suggestion is that since all of you have a business name in Haojing, with 36 lines, and trade with the Franco machine people with Macao tickets, it is better to elect six as the guarantors, and then set up a council, and then elect the governor of Macao, in charge of the Australian ticket matters, and at the same time be in charge of all commercial disputes, when you get the concession, take back the lease rights of the Franco people, and let the insurance business manage the land and transactions on your behalf."

After all, now they want to buy our goods, not that we have to buy their things, to put it mildly, when they went to the West, how many years have they been in the warehouse, and there are still leftovers in the warehouse? In this way, in the event of transaction fraud or other Ming merchants or people who are victimized, they can negotiate with the Francophone as a whole as soon as possible, without waiting for the reaction of the government. The three of you can go to the other people to discuss specific matters. I have already given a lecture to the imperial court before, and this time I am talking to you, and I also said when I was in the teahouse that the six of them can be candidates for the first council. ”

Although Master Huang Qi had said that it was a good thing before, the three of them still had some doubts in their hearts before, and it was not until this moment that they realized what kind of good thing this was. However, before they could chew these words carefully, Wang Fulin had already gotten into the sedan chair, obviously not wanting to say more. Faced with this situation, Master Zhao stretched out his hand to stop Master Yan and Third Master Zhao, who were about to step forward and ask again, and said in a deep voice: "The matter is too big, we have to go back." ”

"Huh? Get back? Feng Sanye couldn't help but blurt out, "Uncle, when we came over before, a few of the people sitting firmly in Diaoyutai over there already laughed at us for not being able to hold our breath, wouldn't it be even more ridiculous to go back this gray?" Besides, such a big thing, if the six of them really monopolize the quota of the insurance company and occupy the seats in the council, then don't we have to be scolded even more? ”

Master Zhao said angrily: "The more this is the case, the more I want to go back!" (To be continued.) )
