Chapter 22: From Bandit to Mister
"Good! Good! Good! After listening to Zhou Chen's words, the old man was even more excited, and said three times in a row, and the old tears were all over the place, and he talked about his sad career.
Hearing this, Zhou Chen was also drunk. The experience of this old lady of the Liu family can really be described as legendary.
At the age of ten, the old lady was deceived by traffickers into a landlord's house because she was illiterate, and began a career of doing heavy work every day. At the age of fifteen, the landlord was robbed by nearby bandits, and taking advantage of the chaos, Mrs. Liu escaped by luck. However, this time he suffered the loss of illiteracy again, and was deceived into the military camp and became a soldier.
On the battlefield, the sword and gun had no eyes, and between life and death, Mrs. Liu stubbornly survived. And it was at this time that he began to realize the importance of learning, so Mrs. Liu reluctantly recognized some commonly used words by asking others and asking Bai Chang. However, it was these words that changed Mrs. Liu's life again.
Because Mrs. Liu is already clever, and now he is literate, he was favored by an official! Then, it was in Chen Liujiwu that he created such a family business.
The lessons of a lifetime have made the old man in front of him know the importance of culture, but in this world, there are many scholars who rely on their identities, and they don't look down on these rural civilians at all, so they can't invite Mr. Private School.
And now, Zhou Chen's arrival has given everyone a ray of light, for ordinary people, reading and writing don't care whether they can get famous, being able to write is already very good, at least they won't suffer like the old lady.
"Mr. Zhou, our Liujiazhuang foundation is also thin, see if this fee can be reduced!"
After the old lady finished speaking, her face turned red, and a gentleman sent it to the door, and she had to negotiate the price, and the old lady herself felt a little ashamed. It was Zhou Chen, who was asked by the old lady, but was stunned: "Old lady, didn't I say that I don't want tuition?" The kids didn't say? ”
"Anyway, sir, you really don't want to pay for it?"
The old lady couldn't believe it, when he got the news from the child's mouth before, he didn't take it seriously, after all, in these years, which gentleman is not full of pockets? How could anyone not take money?
But when this really happened, the old lady couldn't be calm, or rather, everyone in the audience couldn't be calm. The whole hall exploded in an instant
In the end, Zhou Chen stopped the discussion.
"Old lady, I don't know where the patriarch of the clan is? I had something to do with him. "Zhou Chen was fine, but since he came, he had to solve the venue problem by the way, right?
"I don't know what Mr. is looking for? He went to the county seat, and everything here is decided by the second child, sir, but it doesn't matter. ”
The old lady's tone was quite polite, obviously, Zhou Chen, a scholar, had risen to a very high level in his eyes.
"Don't hide it from the old lady, although I want to start a class, but this place is not ready, Brother Dian's family is a little small, I can't teach so many children together, this problem needs to be solved by the old lady as soon as possible, I should open the class as soon as possible, right?"
"Hey! I thought it was something! Tomorrow I will tell everyone to go and build a big house behind the Hercules, and it will be finished in about three days. ”
Listening to Zhou Chen's words, the old lady's tense tense time instantly relaxed. What's the cheapest right now? Manpower! The people in troubled times are as cheap as dogs, not to mention other places, just this Liujiazhuang, the number of refugees living in it has broken a hundred.
Fortunately, Mrs. Liu is kind-hearted and has given them some land, and they can live by helping each other. Of course, these refugees are not alone, dragging their families with their mouths, since they are building private schools, they naturally have a share, plus the Liu family, hundreds of people started work together, and it really didn't take much effort to build a house.
"Done! That's it, old man! If there's nothing to do, I'll leave first, I heard that Brother Dali still has some inventory, I'll help solve it. ”
After speaking, Zhou Chen pulled Dian Wei out of the door. After sleeping for a day, my stomach was already growling, and it just so happened that Dian Wei didn't say that there was still a stock of tiger meat, and dinner could be regarded as a fall.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chen couldn't help but drool, this is a tiger, it is a protected animal in the future life, not to mention eating, it is rare to see it, this time you have to experience it well.
"Brother Dali, didn't you say that there is still a bit of big worm meat? Where! ”
Although Dian Wei is not good at talking, the two have been together for two days, and they can be regarded as acquainted, so Zhou Chen has no scruples when he speaks. And Dian Wei didn't care about these things, and he was very happy when he heard that Zhou Chen wanted to eat tiger meat, after all, the guests could see the things of the master's house, and they had face!
"Let's go! Brother, don't believe it, this big worm I fought is the largest one within a radius of a hundred miles! The meat is also chewy and chewy! ”
Looking at Dian Wei's eyebrows fluttering, Zhou Chen couldn't help but have such a thought-this guy is really the legendary ancient evil that makes people talk about it?
When he returned to Dian Wei's house, he fumbled for a while and took out a thigh from a big basket, which must have been a tiger leg.
It's not been too hot these days, and the tiger meat is still well preserved - at least not any kind of bug grows.
"Brother Dali, why is this thing burning?"
"Look at me!"
I saw Dian Wei pick up the knife on his waist, smack a few times, the tiger meat was drawn into a lot of deep grooves, and took the tiger leg to the kitchen and began to roast.
The process is simple, put the tiger leg on a rack and bake it over high heat, sprinkle with spices, and the production is complete.
Although it is simple, the taste is indeed extraordinary, you don't need to look at it, Zhou Chen can feel it just by smelling the fragrance.
"Brother Dali, I'm going to eat!" Growing so big, Zhou Chen really hasn't eaten tiger meat, looking at the tiger leg that was roasted with golden fat in front of him, he picked up the knife on the side and cut a large piece of meat.
The tiger meat is really extraordinary, full of strength, and this tiger is wild, which adds a bit of fragrance, and Zhou Chen, who has never had a good appetite, rarely ate most of his legs, and he finally ate it refreshed!
Looking at Dian Wei, who was still gnawing on the side, Zhou Chen got up slowly: "Brother Dali, I'll go to sleep again, I have to prepare some things tomorrow, and I should start work in a few days." ”
"Yes, you can really sleep, go yourself! I haven't finished it yet! Dian Wei didn't even look at Zhou Chen, and gnawed on tiger meat with all his heart.
There is no nighttime activity in the Three Kingdoms, and Zhou Chen has nothing to do even if he wants to go out, so going to bed early has become the only thing he can do at night. It's been a day of sleep, but who would have to rest for too long? Lying on the bed, it didn't take long for Zhou Chen to fall asleep again
