As we all know, Huangzhou, as a prosperous state famous in the entire Dongbao Divine Continent, has far surpassed Yunzhou next door in all aspects, and this includes education.

The education in Huangzhou is far superior to that of Yunzhou in terms of education level and resources, so a large number of students go to Huangzhou for further study every year.

There's no way, even in another world, the education world is still so involuted, do you say Yunzhou is bad? After Qin Zi came, he naturally knew that Yunzhou was very good, and the land was fertile while being close to the border pass, so it could be said that if it weren't for the Xianmen territory next door, Dali would definitely expand over there.

However, such a rather wealthy Yunzhou is going to be beaten in front of Huangzhou next door, not to mention other reasons such as land area, just mentioning one point is enough to beat Yunzhou-

There are two large rivers in the Huangzhou region that run through almost the entire Dongbao Divine Continent, one is called Qiqu and the other is called the Huangjiang River, or the Huanglong River.

These two big rivers have a huge amount of water, and the general direction is different, the only place where they intersect is in Huangzhou, it is conceivable that Huangzhou is in the country, and even the status of the entire Dongbao Divine Continent.

With such an important strategic position, Huangzhou's economic level is simply lying down, especially after the improvement of the water transportation system more than 20 years ago, it is even more like a bunch of other states in minutes.

When people get enough wealth, they will naturally strive to pursue status, and when they leave the country, the imperial examination is the best means to enhance their status, so Huangzhou education has developed rapidly, and now in the entire Dongbao Divine Continent, it can be regarded as the number, the only deficiency is that Huangzhou lacks a college with enough background as a rank, and these years, the Guanlan Academy located outside Huangzhou City, there is a faint trend in this regard.

As for the late founding of the country, it also lacks a academy that can serve as a face in the literary world, and it will naturally spare no effort to support it, so it can be said that the current development of Guanlan Academy is the product of the will of the Huangzhou clan and the imperial court.

As mentioned above, a large number of students go to Huangzhou every year, and the main place they go to is Guanlan Academy.

And such a large-scale cross-regional circulation of personnel, even if the imperial court tries its best to strictly check the household registration, there will still be some mistakes, which gives Qin Zi room to operate, as an official identity on the world stage, he will be an ordinary scholar in Jichuan Town, Yunzhou, across a state, to study at Guanlan Academy.

……

For those immortals who are high above, Yunzhou is just a small land, and for the ordinary people in Yunzhou, Yunzhou is too big.

If you want to cross state lines, identity documents are one thing, and the other important place is transportation.

Coincidentally, Yunzhou has developed commerce, and there are often merchants who bring goods to Huangzhou, either sell them directly, or transport them to other places by water, all of which are profiteering.

Zhang Biao is a member of the "Rich Chamber of Commerce" in Yunzhou City, and because he knows martial arts, he often serves as the leader of the transportation of goods.

The name of "Fugui Chamber of Commerce", not to mention a hundred in the country, there must be fifty, and you know that it is a third-rate Chamber of Commerce when you hear the name, so they usually take on some other business in addition to normal delivery of goods.

It just so happens that Yunzhou is next door to Huangzhou, and there are a bunch of scholars who want to study every year, and this kind of cross-border transportation is not simple in that era.

Like these third-floor chambers of commerce, they are naturally more willing, after all, they can not only make a lot of money, but also form a good relationship with these scholars, in case someone develops one day in the future, then they will make a lot of money.

Of course, most of these ideas are at the top of the Chamber of Commerce, and for Zhang Biao, the leader of the team, these scholars are simply a nightmare.

I won't talk about a lot of shit, after all, scholars, it's understandable, but damn it, these little kids who haven't grown up yet, all of them are weak in physique, and the speed of the caravan is seriously dragged down, and he has to fall sick from time to time, which makes him nauseous every year at this time.

The most difficult thing for him to accept is that just because these people have a very small possibility of becoming big officials in the future, he can't beat and scold them, which makes him have a lot of anger and can only hold back.

Alas, it can't be helped, it's all about life, he thought to himself.

Yes, it's time for those scholars to study again.

Thinking of the strange things he met in previous years who were poor, had a bad temper, and had a lot of things, Zhang Biao was depressed again, took a sip of wine, and set off reluctantly.

When he arrived at the agreed place, there was a scholar who was already waiting, which surprised him a little.

Although as long as he is a little ambitious, he will not sleep lazy, but Zhang Biao is still early when he comes over, and it is quite cold outside, so he is naturally not afraid of people who practice martial arts, but this scholar is willing to come so early, which makes him a little surprised, and his perception of this scholar is also a little better.

When I got closer, I found that the scholar was holding a book and reading it to the morning sun.

Although Zhang Biao recognized the words, he didn't bother to look at the book, these poor scholars were all the same, and what they read was nothing more than anything more than anything like that.

However, this scholar came to read in the morning so early, holding the book with a smile on his face, and his bearing was really good.

Zhang Biao is also half of the rivers and lakes, and there are a lot of people who have seen it, this kind of person is the easiest to become a big thing, on the other hand, what are the things that he used to luck, he can't bear any hardship, I don't know how to memorize the article, the big truth is one set of things, and I haven't seen anyone really do it.

The scholar heard the footsteps, put down the book, looked at Zhang Biao, arched his fist, and greeted with a smile:

"It's Brother Zhang, it's really a hero, dignified appearance, extraordinary instruments, all the way to this trip, there is Brother Lao Zhang."

To tell the truth, Zhang Biao's appearance is not ugly at best, and it has nothing to do with his dignified appearance or something, it is really strange that this scholar is still afraid of sycophants.

However, although he usually slanders scholars, he instinctively bows his head in the face of readers, and when he sees that scholar actually takes the initiative to be polite, he hurriedly responds:

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"

Taking advantage of the effort, he also took a good look at the scholar.

I won't mention this kind of youth, after all, most of them are like this, and his first feeling is that this book is really handsome.

No matter what world you are in, you look at your face, and ugliness is better than going to the imperial examination, although you can get by, but it is definitely not as popular as a talented handsome guy.

There was no shortage of handsome guys among the previous scholars, but this scholar gave people a really different feeling.

His facial features are soft, without the angular feeling of the rivers and lakes, and his eyebrows and eyes are smiling, which makes people feel good when they look at it. is different from those scholars who are like girls in the past, although this one has soft facial features, he is confident and free in his gestures, there is no lack of heroism, and his behavior is magnificent.

Looking at the scholar's dress, although it is also the most common green shirt among scholars, this one is not only clean and meticulous, but also has a sense of detachment.

Looking at him with an emerald green long sword at his waist, it seems that he is really an immortal who does not exist in the mortal world.

"I almost forgot," the immortal in Zhang Biao's eyes patted his head and smiled apologetically, "Under the surname Qin, the name is Qin Zi, and before the word is taken, Brother Zhang will call his name directly!" ”

This world is not so fully developed Confucianism, although the concept of etiquette has also been put forward by Confucianism, but it is far less than our ancient times, so Qin Zi's behavior is not rude, many scholars are thinking of Guanlan Academy and ask the teacher to take the words.

While the two were talking, a few more people came, this time it was not a scholar, but Zhang Biao's subordinates, and after greeting Qin Zi, they began to load the goods.

At this time, there was still a while before the appointed time, Qin Zi was not in a hurry, and bragged to Zhang Biao on the side, it seemed that they planned to load the goods first, and then set off directly after the scholars arrived.

Before the goods were loaded, a scholar hurriedly came.

Zhang Biao was chatting with Qin Zi very happily, but he had already reached the stage of calling him a brother and a brother, and he only remembered when he looked at a scholar, but not all scholars in the world are like Brother Qin, and the sins that should be suffered this time are still bearable.

But seeing the scholar who came in a hurry, he took a few breaths after standing still, raised his head and smiled, and greeted everyone.

"Hello big brothers, the younger brother's name is Zhu Chuyu, a native of Gaoling County, and I have a lot of hospitality for this trip."

This was almost the same as Qin Zi's, making everyone around look at him in surprise, but Qin Zi saw this Zhu Chuyu with a smile on his face, his eyes quickly swept over everyone, and when he looked at Qin Zi, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then returned to normal.

Zhang Biao is very happy, there are only five scholars in this line, two of them have good personalities, and they have a good appetite for him, it seems that he doesn't need to be so disgusted, and greeted Zhu Chuyu warmly.

"Hahaha, Brother Zhu don't have to be polite, I'm Zhang Biao, a rough person, but since you are willing to call me brother, then I will keep you safe in this line!"

The smile in Zhu Chuyu's eyes was even worse, and after greeting Zhang Biao warmly a few times, he turned to Qin Zi and asked with a smile:

"This brother is good, I don't know your name?"

Qin Zi bowed his hand and returned the salute: "My name is Qin Zi, Brother Zhu is good, this is a long way to go, you and I have to take care of each other!" ”

Zhu Chuyu blinked, and then said with a smile on his face:

"Okay, take care of each other!"

Qin Zi looked at this person carefully, it was enough to be called dignified.

Qin Zi is a little self-conscious of himself, although his appearance is very good, he is actually not the kind of traditional handsome guy.

And this Zhu Chuyu can be called a traditional handsome scholar to some extent.

However, this person gave him a strange feeling, and when he saw him, his spiritual intuition fluctuated faintly.

At this moment, he tilted his ears, Zhu Chuyu was a little surprised by his action, but he still smiled and looked Qin Zi up and down at a very fast speed.

Only this time, he met Qin Zi's thoughtful eyes.

He was stunned for a moment, then smiled at Qin Zi and turned to Zhang Biao and the others.

Qin Zi looked at his back, not knowing what he was thinking.

Just now, he received a reminder from Mu Mu:

"Childe, watch out for this guy, he gives me a strange feeling!"

"Is he a cultivator?"

"No, he's just mortal, just a little weird."

Although it was a bit arrogant to say this, for Qin Zi, not being a cultivator almost meant that there was no threat.

Still, even so, he still pays close attention to this kid.

After all, whether it is himself or Mu Mu, spiritual intuition indicates that there is a problem, then it is indeed a bit of a problem.

It's just that his current realm is still very low, and Mu Mu's state problem is still very serious, and neither of them can carefully figure out what the problem is.

A few people bragged again, and several of Zhang Biao's subordinates had almost loaded the goods, and the remaining scholars were missing.

Fortunately, the other three were not late, and they all arrived at the appointed time.

However, what makes Zhang Biao very regrettable is that the other three people all belong to the kind of stuffy gourd type, basically reading there and answering only one sentence when they ask, and they have been frowning, talking to him as if they were disturbed by reading.

Zhang Biao was disgusted by these three people, and thought about it again, after all, not everyone can be like his Brother Qin and Brother Zhu.

I can only secretly rejoice that although these three people are disgusting people, they are all stuffy gourds, and they will not take the initiative to disgust him, just ignore them.

After such a self-consolation, his mood was much better, just ignore the three of them.

Even he secretly thought in his heart that the attitude of these three people was so bad, if there was something on the road at that time, he would definitely not be willing to take care of it.

So, several people set off with their own thoughts.

……

In fact, it is said that the "Rich Chamber of Commerce" takes the scholars, but there are not many people from the "Rich Chamber of Commerce", and they have to go with several other chambers of commerce on this trip.

These are third-rate chambers of commerce, and they won't transport too much goods at a time, and there are not many team leaders of this level like Zhang Biao, so several chambers of commerce will unite and send one person at a time, and this time it will be the turn of the "Rich Chamber of Commerce".

After leaving the city, they soon had a round with several other chambers of commerce.

The people of the other chambers of commerce also brought a few scholars, but there were not many of them.

Those few people were not so stuffy, and they took the initiative to talk to Qin Zi and the others.

Of course, these people still have the pretentiousness of a scholar, and they are not willing to talk to Zhang Biao and others, but are only willing to be polite with Qin Zi and others.

They didn't want to come, but Zhang Biao was happy to be idle.

Looking at Qin Zi and Zhu Chuyu, with their outstanding appearance and talent, they faintly became the center of several people, Zhang Biao nodded secretly, so that at least there would be a lot of leisure along the way.

After all, the scholars who came to take the initiative to disgust him in the past were the leaders of a group of scholars, and they didn't know where they got their self-confidence, and they came to command them with pretentiousness, and they disgusted him.

Fortunately, most of these scholars are not the children of rich families, at most they are from the small landlords' families, although they are disgusting, but they will not be aggressive, otherwise Zhang Biao would have stopped doing it a long time ago.

His gaze returned to Qin Zi's side.

He had just met a few scholars from other chambers of commerce, and two of them he thought were quite interesting.

One is called Lu Xiangxing, and the other is called Lu Jiansheng, two brothers.

What makes Qin Zi find interesting is that although these two people are not like Qin Zi and Zhu Chuyu who can chat with those businessmen without barriers, they do not show rejection on the whole, but have a feeling that they can't deliberately join the topic.

In addition, both of them carried weapons with them, and they were obviously practicing martial arts.

Of course, this is actually very normal, Dali is prevalent in martial arts, and many scholars are both civil and military.

Qin Zi can be regarded as a small achievement now, just look at them and know that although these two people are both practicing martial arts, their martial arts cultivation is really not good, and they are even far worse than Zhang Biao.

Of course, in Zhang Biao's eyes, Qin Zi is the same.

After all, although he hadn't practiced martial arts carefully, Qin Zi's level was still much higher than him.

Another interesting thing is that Lu Xiangxing and Lu Jiansheng should be from a big family, although he doesn't know which big family they are, but whether it is from their clothes, words and deeds, they can faintly feel it.

As for the other few people, it didn't mean much, most of them were from the traditional poor family, or the small landlord's family, and even the class division between several people could be seen at a glance in Qin Zi's eyes.

Seeing that both of the Lu brothers were interested in talking to the merchants and porters of the Chamber of Commerce, Qin Zi was naturally kind.

For a person like him, who is in the immortal class, it can be seen at a glance that the estrangement between these people is just a matter of ideology.

Scholars are not ashamed of businessmen, and businessmen themselves have an inferiority complex in the face of scholars, and they are still looked down upon, so they naturally don't want to pay attention to them.

Qin Zi first talked to a few of them, led the topic to martial arts, and then casually greeted Zhang Biao, and then greeted Zhang Biao with a few words, and Zhang Biao began to tell various stories about the rivers and lakes.

This kind of thing is not resistant to people of their age, although they disdain it and want to hear about it, Zhang Biao is also happy to pretend to be this comparison in front of these scholars and start talking about the mountains.

It's just that when he came back to his senses, he suddenly realized that he had made up his mind not to socialize with these scholars, why did they talk together so quickly?

He didn't stop, and quietly glanced at Qin Zi who was smiling beside him, and he was a little surprised in his heart.

He looked back on what happened, and naturally found that Qin Zi played a role in it, but he was still a little uncertain, whether it was his unintentional action or intentional, but no matter what, this young man named Qin Zi was definitely not simple.

Even if his eyes were silent, they were discovered by Qin Zi at a glance, but he still listened to Zhang Biao's blowing and didn't speak.

On the side, Zhu Chuyu obviously caught the fluctuations in his eyes here, he glanced at the two of them thoughtfully, and suddenly realized that when he looked at Qin Zi again, there was obviously a little surprised expression on his face for the first time, but it quickly disappeared.

At this time, Zhang Biao was bragging, thinking about Qin Zi's affairs, and everyone else was listening carefully to Zhang Biao's boasting, so it can be said that no one except Qin Zi found out about the situation on his side.

He thought about it for a while, then quietly leaned over to Qin Zi's side and whispered:

"You shouldn't be ...... like this"
