Chapter Seventy-Eight: The County Order Can't Sell Sweet Potatoes?
County order, big lord?
Qin Fan, Brother Qin?
Brother Qin is really the county magistrate of Wannian County?!
Zhao Xiuzhu looked confused, all his previous guesses were wrong?
"That's not right! You must have joined forces to coax me! How is it possible for the prefectural order to sell sweet potatoes?" Zhao Xiuzhu suddenly looked firm again.
Qin Fan saw Zhao Xiuzhu's stunned face, so he said to the other two, "Leave him alone, aren't you here for sweet potatoes? It's baked, eat it!"
But Zheng Yuan and Cui Yao also had ghostly expressions.
On the other end, Wang Lao Wu was in a hurry to go home to do errands, but was stopped by the person in front of him, and he had to say that the master was not a county order.
Then he opened his mouth and said, "Why can't the county order sell sweet potatoes? My grandfather sells snacks every month."
Cui Yao suddenly patted his head and said, "I understand!"
Zheng Yuan pulled Zhao Xiuzhu on the side and motioned for him to listen to Cui Yao's words together.
Cui Yao said, "Actually, Brother Qin is the county commander of this Wannian County!"
Qin Fan nodded.
Yes, don't look at this kid who is dumbfounded, he is actually the first person to accept the facts.
"And the reason why Brother Qin sells roasted sweet potatoes is to understand the people's feelings and get in close contact with the people, so that he can better govern the people!"
Qin Fan: Why didn't I know that I was selling sweet potatoes to observe the people's feelings?
Zheng Yuan on the side also had a comprehension expression: "No wonder Brother Qin didn't come to set up a stall in the past two days, he must have already understood the people's feelings, so there is no need to come out again!"
Feed! I didn't come out of the stall because you wronged people gave enough silver taels, enough to survive the next few days!
Zhao Xiuzhu also followed the thoughts of his friends: "Brother Qin said that selling roasted sweet potatoes is life, it turns out that this is what it means! I thought that Brother Qin meant to buy roasted sweet potatoes to make a living, but sure enough, my realm was too low!"
After speaking, Zhao Xiuzhu showed a ashamed expression.
Qin Fan was no longer able to complain, and in the face of these three brain supplement mad demons, he could only disarm and surrender.
At the same time, three pairs of sparkling eyes were cast towards Qin Fan.
"Brother Qin, are we right?"
Qin Fan held his forehead with his hand: "Yes, yes, yes! You're right! Hurry up and eat roasted sweet potatoes!"
Suddenly, Cui Yao patted his head and said, "Brother Qin, since you are the county magistrate of Wannian County, you must have also participated in the Spring Festival!"
Qin Fan peeled the sweet potato skin and said casually: "At this time last year, I was just lucky to be shortlisted, and my ranking was not high!"
Zhao Xiuzhu poured a glass of wine and saluted, "Brother Qin, the three of us all came to Beijing to participate in the Spring Festival, and we also ask Brother Qin to pass on our experience!"
Seeing this, the other two also made the same gesture.
Qin Fan looked at the three lowered heads in front of him and the three bowls of wine, with a brainless expression.
These people don't treat themselves as outsiders.
You must know that such guidance may be related to a candidate's career for a lifetime.
Therefore, unless they are very close or very optimistic about each other, ordinary people will not easily pass on experience.
At the same time, the juniors who have been taught experience will also give the half-teacher salute to the seniors as a sign of respect.
In short, if Qin Fan drank these three bowls of wine, it would be equivalent to becoming half a master of these three people!
Of course, if the three of them are successful, Qin Fan will also have more face.
If the three of them fall off the list, others will also think that Qin Fan's level is insufficient.
It can be said that after drinking these three bowls of wine, the relationship between Qin Fan and them can be regarded as tied together.
It was precisely because of this that Qin Fan did not rush to refuse or drink these wines, but said:
"As I expected, you are the children of a big family like the five surnames and seven hopes!"
"Brother Qin, what you said is right! However, although we come from several major families, we are all concubines, and we have not been treated well since we were children. The family will not invest resources in us at all."
Zhao Xiuzhu said, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Qin Fan set his eyes on the other two.
Cui Yao also opened his mouth and added: "Xiuzhu is right, I am from the Cui family of Qinghe, Zheng Yuan is a member of the Zheng family of Xingyang, and Xiuzhu is a descendant of the Li family of Zhaojun."
Hearing this, Qin Fan looked at Zhao Xiuzhu in surprise and said, "Aren't you surnamed Zhao?"
Zhao Xiuzhu smiled and said without hesitation: "My mother's surname is Zhao, and my father is the head of the Li family. I'm their illegitimate son, so it's not wrong to say that I'm a descendant of the Li clan of Zhao County."
Zheng Yuan opened his mouth to explain, "Xiuzhu grew up with her mother, and his cheap father came to him when he tied his hair. Later, the mother and son went to Li's house, but Xiuzhu was unwilling to change back to the surname Li."
Qin Fan understood: "In this way, although the three of you are from wealthy families, you are not welcomed!"
"Yes, the inheritance of the family has nothing to do with us, if we follow the trajectory arranged by the family, after the year of the weak crown, we will be sent out to take care of the family's property."
After a pause, Zhao Xiuzhu continued.
"And the only one who can change this fate is the imperial examination. So the three of us decided to come to Beijing."
Qin Fan looked sideways: "The three of you are here to try your luck in the capital?"
Cui Yao frowned: "Although we know that the chances of the title of the gold list are very small, we are not here to try our luck. Before that, we had been studying hard for ten years and were well prepared!"
Qin Fan nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then it's okay for me to instruct you."
"But the ugly words are ahead, my own level is just general, if you think that with my guidance, you can successfully pass the imperial examination, that is impossible!"
Listening to Qin Fan's words, several people's faces showed joy.
"We believe in Brother Qin's level, but we are also ready to face all the results!"
Seeing this, Qin Fan didn't say anything more, and drank three bowls of wine.
"Master!" The three of them were overjoyed.
"Hey! Other! I haven't taught you anything! Besides, I'm not a few years older than you."
Zhao Xiuzhu shook his head: "Licheng, from this moment on, you are our master!" Young or old, knowledgeable or not."
Qin Fan didn't say much, and helped the three of them up first, planning to ask the three of them about the subjects they chose, and then combined with the memories of their predecessors, to see if they could give them some advice.
Yes, it was the predecessor and not Qin Fan who passed the test in the first spring.
Although Qin Fan perfectly inherited the other party's memories when he crossed over, he would not take the initiative to read these things.
In this matter, Qianqian came with a large pot of tofu and fish head soup.
"The fish are coming! Eat it while it's hot!"
Immediately, the fragrance filled the courtyard, and several people's stomachs also growled.
Then, Qianqian brought out the squirrel mandarin fish and braised fish pieces, and then put the dishes and chopsticks together.
Everyone was hungry, Qin Fan smiled, "Let's eat first!"
