Chapter 121: The Great Treacherous Loyalty
"Something important?"
Seeing that Yun Yi said so solemnly, Zhuang Jing'an's expression couldn't help but become serious.
Yun Yi didn't say anything more.
At that time, he told Zhuang Jing'an in detail about the possible epidemic outside the city.
When Zhuang Jingan heard this, her brows couldn't help but wrinkle into Sichuan characters.
After a long time, he said helplessly:
"The situation you are talking about is not impossible."
"It's just that the teacher has now returned to his hometown."
"Although it seems that Yu Wei is still there, there is no real power in his hands."
"Even if you want to meddle in this matter, I'm afraid you won't be able to influence the government's decision,"
"Since Liu Gengnian didn't adopt your opinion, let's think of other ways in this matter!"
After Zhuang Jingan finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh.
When Yun Yi heard this, although he was helpless in his heart, he also knew that what Zhuang Jing'an said was all the truth.
"Students understand."
Seeing that Yunyi's mood was a little low, Zhuang Jing'an couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He was still persuading Yun Yi just now, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face in a blink of an eye.
Zhuang Jing'an thought for a moment, and then assured Yunyi:
"I will send the housekeeper of the Zhuang Mansion to investigate this matter."
"If the situation is really as you say, even if the old man relies on the old man and sells the old once, he will nip this crisis in the bud."
The reason why Zhuang Jingan did not rely on his influence to influence Liu Gengnian's decision.
That's because he has always been a little incomprehensible to Liu Gengnian.
Liu Gengnian has been working hard in Linjiang County for nearly ten years.
If it weren't for the case back then, I'm afraid it would have been reused by the imperial court.
Although the case eventually proved to have nothing to do with him, it happened under his rule after all.
So over the years, although Liu Gengnian's evaluation has been good, he has not been promoted and reused.
Moreover, before Han Qingyun left Linjiang County, she took the initiative to inform her of the purpose of coming to Linjiang County.
According to her, there are still many doubts about the case back then.
She came this time to secretly investigate and collect evidence.
Han Qingyun's frank admission also made Zhuang Jing'an more firm in her judgment.
If there is really something wrong with this Liu County Commander, then this guy is definitely a typical example of treacherous loyalty.
The master and apprentice chatted for a while.
Yun Yi looked at the sky and prepared to get up and say goodbye.
"Since you have other things to do, then I won't keep you as a teacher."
"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Luming Academy will hold a poetry meeting."
"At that time, students from the entire Linjiang County can be present to participate."
"Three excellent poems will be selected in this poetry meeting, and the total silver reward will be as high as 100 taels."
"Since this poetry meeting is not limited to the number of poems per person."
"If you are interested in this hundred taels of silver, you can prepare a few poems in advance for the competition."
Although Zhuang Jing'an was asking Yunyi's opinion, he had already spread out his pen and ink on the desk.
Hearing the silver reward, Yun Yi's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Now that he has decided to make Taoyuan Village rich through the textile industry, he needs to prepare enough funds to build a workshop.
Although the business of Dream of Red Mansions and soap made a lot of money, because it was a cooperative business, the capital turnover was not free.
Since the reward of the poetry club always has to be collected, it is understandable to compete for it yourself.
Yun Yi thought so, hehe smiled, and did not refuse.
The reason why Zhuang Jingan persuaded Yunyi to participate in the poetry meeting was, on the one hand, looking forward to Yunyi's masterpieces.
On the other hand, it is also to continue to build momentum for Yunyi and brush honor.
Just yesterday, he received a handwritten letter from his disciple Han Zhiyuan.
In the letter, Han Zhiyuan bluntly told Zhuang Jing'an, saying that Emperor Zhao Jian had already moved his mind to use Yunyi, and hoped that the teacher could help investigate.
Zhuang Jingan understood in his heart.
In fact, the so-called investigation is just a rhetoric.
Since Yun Yi was able to enter the Holy Eye, his ability was naturally beyond doubt.
So the emperor's real purpose is for him to find a way to solve Yunyi's identity problem.
Now this guy's talent is obvious to all, but this background is still just a white body.
If Yun Yi is directly recruited as an official, not only will the DPRK and China make a disturbance, but I am afraid that even the world's scholars will rise up and attack him.
After leaving three poems related to the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yunyi took his leave and left the Zhuangfu.
As for whether these three poems can successfully win the championship, Yun Yi is actually not too sure in his heart.
Although these poems are all famous poems handed down from previous lives.
However, Yunyi did not dare to underestimate the literati of this world.
You must know that in the history of his previous life, Wang Bo, who was in his twenties, shocked the four with a song "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" and achieved a famous story through the ages.
Yun Yi didn't think that he, a copyist, would have any chance of winning in the face of such a genius.
Out of the gate of Zhuangfu, Yun Yi saw that it was still early, so he decided to go to the plum blossom cottage to learn about the pre-sale.
After the donation activities some time ago, the pre-sale of Dream of Red Mansions is estimated to have reached a terrifying number.
Although the plum blossom cottage is run by Su Xiaoxiao alone.
However, since the store's accounts will be open to the public, Yunyi does not have to worry about uneven account sharing.
When Yunyi took Zhao Laosan to the Plum Blossom Thatched Cottage, he saw Su Xiaoxiao directing a few people to carry books from a distance.
Seeing Yun Yi coming to the door, Su Xiaoxiao first looked happy, and then trotted to meet him.
"Yun Gongzi, you haven't been here for a while."
Su Xiaoxiao wiped the sweat on her forehead and said with a smile in her eyebrows.
For a long time?
It's only been a few days, right?
And how is Su Xiaoxiao's tone so similar to those girls in the Qinglou?
Yun Yi frowned and thought in confusion, and opened the distance between him and Su Xiao without a trace.
"How's business been going in the last few days?"
Since the relationship between the two is already very familiar, Yun Yi didn't make much politeness.
After greeting each other, they got straight to the point and asked about the business.
After all, Dream of Red Mansions has half of his profits.
Now after a period of fermentation, it is estimated that the income brought by Dream of Red Mansions to himself is definitely beyond his imagination.
"Since we launched the book purchase and donation campaign, the sales of Dream of Red Mansions have been very hot."
"At present, relying only on pre-sale, nearly 1,000 taels of silver have been sold."
Regarding Yunyi's inquiry, Su Xiaoxiao did not hide it at all.
I saw that she raised the account book in her hand towards Yunyi, and proudly said the sales of Dream of Red Mansions.
But after finishing speaking, Su Xiaoxiao added with embarrassment.
"Due to these pre-sold Dream of Red Mansions, they have not been published for the time being."
"In order to avoid customers returning goods during this period, our revenue cannot be divided for the time being."
"Regarding this situation, please bear with me Mr. Yun."
Regarding Su Xiaoxiao's proposal, Yunyi did not have any opinions.
Now he has a hundred taels of silver in his hand that the county government just begged for, and he is not short of money for a while.
Instead of causing confusion in the accounts because of the withdrawal of money, it is better to wait for the pre-sale to end, and then withdraw his dividends from Su Xiaoxiao.
After welcoming Yunyi into the plum blossom cottage, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to tell Yunyi about the next stage of the marketing plan she formulated.
