The county magistrate was shocked at the time, and hurriedly asked the county lieutenant Jiang: "Is this true?" Then why didn't you say it earlier? Instead, it was your son-in-law's idea? ”

Jiang County Lieutenant sighed: "This matter is a credit to the adult, but for a boy from a peasant family, his idea like this is a disaster of death, and it is his son-in-law who begged him not to tell the county magistrate about this, lest others know that the idea is his own, and those removed lieutenants will find trouble with his family." ”

Xu Xianling asked: "You mean to say that the future life wants to hide it?" ”

Jiang County Lieutenant's jaw: "Exactly, the lowly son-in-law originally wanted to hide it for him for a lifetime, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate to conceal the county order, so he told the adult about it, and hoped that the adult would forgive him." ”

County Lieutenant Jiang will tell Xu Xianling the truth of the matter, in fact, he wants to help Gu Jinan and pave the way for him in advance.

The county magistrate now has a good relationship with the prefect, if he can tell the prefect about this, let the prefect know about Gu Jinan's existence, and when Gu Jinan will test his fame in the future, he will not be manipulated.

After all, if you want to gain fame, the county examination is only the first step, and then there are the prefectural exams and the hospital exams, all of which are to be examined in the prefecture, and the literati fight fiercely, and some students will be killed in every scientific examination.

After listening to Xu County's order, he admired Gu Jinan a little: "At a young age, he actually has such a talent, and he is a material that can be made." ”

Because of the appreciation of the county magistrate, or because of the guilt of taking the credit of others, this is why I sent a plaque to the shop today.

Gu Jinan took a few steps forward and bowed deeply towards Master Tian: "Senior Gu Jin'an, meet Master Tian." ”

Master Tian looked at Gu Jin'an, and saw that he was outstanding, tall, and although he was a farmer, he had the spirit of everyone, and nodded with satisfaction: "I heard that you are studying with Shang Xiucai?" How did you learn? ”

Gu Jinan replied: "Now I am studying four scriptures, and I will start to learn five scriptures in the second half of the year. ”

"Four books?" Master Tian smiled and said, "Then I'll test you to see how well you learn?" ”

Gu Jinan said respectfully: "Please ask for the question." ”

Master Tian published an article from the university in the four books and asked Gu Jinan to memorize it.

Gu Jinan recited it word for word, and also said the meaning of the article.

Master Tian published another article in Zhongyong, and directly asked Gu Jin to write it down.

Gu Jinan wrote down Wen Mo in just a moment and handed it to Master Tian.

Master Tian looked at the words on it and boasted: "This word is written with a bit of style." Do you want to test for fame in the future? ”

Gu Jinan replied: "Yes, what the younger generation has learned now is famous for scientific research in the future." ”

Master Tian nodded, and already knew what to say to the county magistrate after he went back.

He put down the article in his hand, looked at Shang Xiucai, and said with a smile: "Brother Shang, you have accepted a good student." ”

Shang Xiucai was not polite, with a proud smile on his face: "This is a jade, it is an honor to have the honor to carve it." ”

Master Tian thought of what Xu Xianling said to him, nodded with a smile: "It is indeed a rare jade. ”

Gu Dexing lowered his head and listened to it beside him, feeling very uncomfortable, and wanted to open his mouth to let Master Tian also test him in the debut question. It's a pity that after seeing Gu Jinan's performance, he didn't dare to speak rashly, just because he really couldn't compare to Gu Jinan.

And he was very curious, how could Gu Jinan's memory be so good? actually memorized the four books, he went to a private school to study since he was a child, and he should have learned better than Gu Jin'an, but just now he silently recited those two articles in his heart, but he didn't memorize either of them, which is really more popular than people.

After Gu Dexing knew the gap between himself and Gu Jinan, he was very panicked, and for the first time he understood that he was completely compared to Gu Jinan.

And Gu Jin'an was able to memorize the four books because he had been copying books.

Since he went to Shang Xiucai's house to study, Shang Xiucai gave him a set of four books and five classics and asked him to go home to copy them, no matter how busy and tired he was, he never stopped copying books. Now he has copied the Four Books and Five Classics, and during the day, he specializes in the Four Books and Texts, plus he is born with a good memory, so he is fluent in the Four Books and Texts.

"Young talent." Hu Dongjia is also a scholar, but he has not been admitted to the famous examination for many years, so he went home to run the ancestral business, and saw that Gu Jin'an had a good knowledge and good handwriting, and he liked him very much.

After a while, Hu Dongjia looked at the third grandfather and asked, "Old man Gu, how much can your shop give us Futai Building?" ”

The third grandfather said: "You tell Dashan about this, lo-mei and roast duck are the livelihood of his family and the eldest girl's family." ”

Hu Dongjia looked at Gu Dashan at this time, as soon as he saw Gu Dashan, he was a little fixed in his heart, this person was an honest person at first glance, and it was appropriate to do business with such a person.

Gu Dashan has grown a lot better than before, and he is not in a hurry to do business with Hu Dongjia, but first told Hu Dongjia about the rules of taking goods, if Hu Dongjia accepts their rules, then it is not too late to talk.

Hu Dongjia has a good relationship with Jiang Qi, and Jiang Qi had already told him this rule before he came. When I first heard it, I was a little disgusted in my heart, thinking that the Gu family was too shrewd, but I thought about it the same, every time they bought Futai Building, they would inspect the goods, and everyone was the same, so they were not so resistant.

Hu Dongjia said: "This is okay. ”

Seeing that he agreed, Gu Dashan asked, "Brother Hu, how many goods do you want to take a day?" What kind of lo-mei are used, you tell me first, if you can, we will sign a contract and give the deal. ”

Hu Dongjia said: "100 roast ducks, 80 catties of various types of meat and marinade, 80 catties of each type of vegetarian marinade, and 300 braised eggs." ”

"So much." Gu Dashan was shocked and reminded Hu Dongjia: "Brother Hu, the weather is hot now, although it is not easy to be rancid, but it can't be sold out on this day, and if you eat it the next day, the taste is always not as good as the first day. ”

Gu Dashan's words were not very pleasant, but Hu Dongjia did not dislike it when he heard it, but was very happy, if he was the shopkeeper of other shops, he would not say such at all.

Jiang Qi said beside him: "Brother Gu, you don't have to worry about this, Brother Hu's restaurant has more than one, and there are two restaurants in the two towns near the county seat. ”

After hearing this, Gu Dashan put his mind at ease: "Nacheng, we will supply Brother Hu." ”

Hu Dongjia said again: "There are also white tofu, fragrant tofu, and fried tofu that also give us fifty catties every day." ”

The rich old ladies in the county town are old and prefer to eat some soft and glutinous vegetarian food, and white tofu and dried tofu are the best.

Gu Jinan knew that Gu Jinli was going to sell tofu, so he turned around and went to the backyard and took two bowls of tofu on a tray: "Hu Dongjia, this is the newly made tofu in our workshop, you can taste it." ”
