Chapter 4: Zhang Lizheng's Plans

Ye Guan bowed, made a gesture, and then asked, "The chief is here, but there is something to ask Xiao Ke." ”

Zhang Lichang nodded slightly, feeling that Ye Xiucai was still gentle and polite, and thought about it in his heart: It seems that Ye Xiucai is not a long-term fool, I don't have any motivated scholars within a hundred and ten miles, and sometimes the public wen and instructions issued by the county government have to rely on Li Xiucai in the next village to know the meaning of the county master. If you leave this Ye Guan in the village, be a private school teacher in the village on weekdays, help me solve some big and small things in the village when I need it, and then be responsible for connecting the city and the village, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?

Ye looked at Zhang Lizheng, whose face was uncertain in front of him, and he was also secretly thinking in his heart: "Could it be that I scared Uncle Li's little Yetou into crying today, so Uncle Zhang called Li Zheng to reason?" But I've eaten it all, so I'm here to ask for a porcelain bowl? That's not good, if I want to go back to the bowl, what will I use to serve the rice? Well, although I don't have a grain of rice at home now, it doesn't mean that I won't have it in the future. The revolutionary mentor said well: there will be bread, there will be milk, you can't have bread and milk, I will take it. In the same way, it is not only bread and milk that need porcelain bowls, but also rice and broth. Porcelain bowls are an indispensable and important tool in people's lives, so they cannot be given to him. ”

Ye Guan made up his mind, ready to play the spirit of shamelessness, and as soon as Zhang Lizheng opened his mouth, he denied it.

"Ye Xian's nephew, I want to ......"

"Captain, not only does the landlord's family have no surplus grain. Xiucai's family, there is no surplus grain, not only is there no surplus grain, but there is also no extra porcelain bowl! ”

As soon as Zhang Li opened his mouth, Ye Guan blocked him back.

"Nephew Ye Xian, are you starting to get dizzy again? Have you forgotten that not only do our gentry not pay for food, but this court also doesn't want any porcelain bowls? Zhang Li was robbed by Ye Guan for a while, and he suddenly didn't like it, isn't this Xiucai's illness cured?

"Didn't the chief ask me for a porcelain bowl?" Ye Guan was stunned.

"Why do I want your porcelain bowl? I have a lot of family. I'm here to ask you to be in charge of the communication with the county government first, and when the private school in the village returns to the city, you can take over from Mr. and become a teacher who educates the world. Would you like to? Zhang Lichang said his intention.

After Ye Guan heard this, he was silent for a moment, this is a good way out. The squire is the most unofficial in this feudal society, isn't there a saying in later generations, don't take the village chief as a cadre. This village chief, who is a character in the past, is also a character who looks like a li, and the squires of the feudal society do not pay food, this Zhang Lizheng can also be regarded as a landed talent, the same is not a food, in many ways, the chief is even much more powerful than the village chief, if you follow the chief, you will definitely have no worries about food and clothing in this life.

The future is bright, but the road is tortuous, and I can't read four books and five classics? The relationship between the county government and the squire can still be done, which is a matter of teaching and educating people...... I don't recognize all the traditional characters...... For example, there are several ways to write the back of fennel beans, and I may not even be able to compare with Kong Yiji, isn't this a misleading disciple. Well, of course, Baguwen can be regarded as a misguided child.

Seeing that Ye Guan was silent, Zhang Lizheng only thought that he still had to take the township test, so he said: "Don't worry, don't say it's you, even that Mr. Xixi will go to the township test in three years, he is also an old talent who has landed for many years, and when it comes to the township test, let the private school stop for a few days, it doesn't matter." ”

"Well, then thank you Zhang Lizheng." Ye saw that Zhang Lizheng said that this is the job, and he is ready to come down, anyway, when he went to teach, he didn't know the Year of the Monkey, maybe before the gentleman retired, I would find another job? Anyway, I'm going to starve to death, how to die is not death.

………………

Ye Guan made this swaying ox cart, took this mile of grain booklets, and drove towards Huating County.

The village is actually not far from Huating County, but although the ox cart is more stable than the horse-drawn carriage, it is too slow, only dozens of miles of road, until the sun begins to tilt westward, Ye Guan saw the small city wall of Huating County from a distance.

Huating County is a county under the jurisdiction of Songjiang Prefecture, and it is also the location of the Municipal Ship Lifting Division and the Rong Freight Yard (however, under the edict of the Hongwu Emperor's sea ban, the city ship lifting division established in the former Yuan has been abolished, and only a few city ship divisions remain in the southeastern provinces). Yuan to Yuan 29 years, to the people and things prosperous, began to cut the five townships in the northeast of Huating, the county was established in the town, attached to Songjiang Mansion, its name was Shanghai, and the land lived above the sea. Next to Huating County is Shanghai County, which is the birthpoint of the famous Shanghai in the future.

The small village where Ye Guan is located belongs to the jurisdiction of Huating County, Ye Guan got off the ox cart and walked to the gate of this county seat, looking at this ancient county seat, his heart swelled with infinite emotion.

The soul that is different from everyone else in this world now appears in front of the ancient city wall, looking at the crowd coming and going, Ye Guan seems to be able to feel a trace of Zhuang Zhou's sigh: I don't know if Zhou's dream is a butterfly, and a butterfly's dream is Zhou's?

In this way, I was forever far away from the afterlife, and came to such a place, a world that may be unknown, or maybe a thing of the past......

At the south gate of the county seat, pedestrians go back and forth at the city gate before the pass, a carriage full of raw silk satin creaks forward on the bluestone-paved road, pedestrians walk on both sides, and the carriage walks on the bluestone-paved road with special loess padding, and it is rare that the horses are frightened and trampled to death in the novel. The harmony of people and vehicles appeared in the county town of the Ming Dynasty in the fifteenth century.

The moat, like the pedestrian street of later generations, is full of large and small food stalls, filled with merchants from all over the world. The old man held a coarse porcelain sea bowl, wiped the sweat from his head, and sat on a chair complaining about the sultry summer heat. The servants and the little ones squatted next to the tea stall with a large bowl of tea and chatted nonsense. shows a more naked hierarchy, just like in later generations, many big bosses and drivers are not at the same table is the same reason.

The merchants took advantage of the rest time to quickly inquire about the news with the merchants next to them and communicate with each other. The technology of stir-frying, after the development of the Six Dynasties, has gradually spread to the people, many merchants order one or two small dishes, and then call a pot of turbid wine, after sleeping in the long-distance dining style, finally can enjoy the beauty for a while, in the leaf view, just like Zhang Zeduan's "Qingming Riverside Map", bustling, a prosperous scene.

Ye Guan took the package and walked towards the county town with the flow of people, it was already about to reach one or three o'clock, and it was time to beat the twilight drum, that is, the night curfew. If you don't find a hotel as soon as possible, and still wander the streets, you will be guilty of "committing a night crime", which will be punished with forty lashes if caught by the government.

So Ye Guan, who had been a young man in his previous life, looked around to see if he could find a hotel to stay in.

Just when Ye Guan looked around, he felt that the package in his hand was pulled violently, and then Ye Guan stumbled, and as soon as his hand was loosened, the package was snatched away.

"There are thieves! Call the police! Ye Guan consciously played a good habit of "calling the police if there is something". The crowd that was moving slowly was frightened by Ye Guan's scream. The thief disappeared through the gap in the flow of people......
