Chapter 38: Ironstone Camp
He had never been to the county academy, and in the memory of the original owner, he went to the grass school in the next village.
The grass school is also run by an old man who read some books in his early years, and it is said to impart knowledge to the children in the village, but in fact, it is farming and planting will not have the ability to make a living, and the people in Mengmeng Village collect some money and live a life...
As for how knowledgeable is the gentleman of this grass school?
That's it...
In the inner courtyard of their shop, you can hear the recitation coming from the county academy.
He suddenly had a plan in his heart, and told Su Dafeng on the spot.
And when Su Dafeng heard it, he was simply stunned!
"Will this work?"
Zhou Qi nodded with a smile.
"Now this is an era of more women than men, how many women dream of marrying a good man? If you look at our county, most of them are women who marry low and men who marry high, and even there are not a few who are concubines and maids. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Qi touched his head and became slightly embarrassed.
"I set up a gazebo in my small courtyard, every time I buy a rich girl who buys toothpaste, she can see the scholars from the academy after school in the small hole of the gatehouse, if it is wishful thinking, it will be handed over as a token, and you will come and go, your toothpaste, no need to limit it, people will sell well if they don't buy it!"
In this dynasty, most of the women are deep in the boudoir and will not come out to see people easily, and the marriage is also the words of their parents, which also leads to many women who have never seen the man look like until they get married!
But Zhou Qi is not worried about this, so Liu Sichen can hold a poetry meeting, what does it matter if he Zhou Qi invites a well-known embroidery girl to come to hold a female red class on the surface?
Su Dafeng was stupid when he heard the whole person, his eyes were round, and he slapped it with a slap!
"You kid, how did you know that these evil sects are crooked!!"
Zhou Qi covered his shoulders and said with a smile: "But in this case, the four big men in my shop will no longer be able to live in the shop..."
"That's easy!"
Su Dafeng waved his hand, called the little guy to explain, and immediately presented a deed to Zhou Qi.
"I wanted this house for you a long time ago, hehehe."
Su Dafeng blinked, looking insincere.
However, Zhou Qi didn't care, and slipped away with the deed.
Before leaving, he told Su Dafeng that Su Ling had already gone to Su Yue's house, and Su Dafeng was annoyed why didn't he go back to his house first.
But immediately thinking of Su Ling's situation in his family before he got married, he lost his temper at the moment!
Zhou Qi feels that there are a lot of things to do today, and he really can't stop for a moment!
After thinking about it, he still planned to go to Liu Sichen first and figure out the matter of the bandits, and then he was not in such a hurry about other things.
The owner of the wine pavilion already knew him now, so Zhou Qi found a greeting and went in directly.
"Open the door and move the bamboo, it was the old man who came..."
Liu Sichen, who was sitting on the upper seat of the private room, had a folding fan as in the past, and happened to read a sentence when Zhou Qi opened the door.
Zhou Qi was a little stunned, this verse seems to be a little familiar??
The original text seems to be suspicious of the old man, and after thinking about it for a while, I finally remembered, isn't this the poem of Li Yi in the Tang Dynasty?
I didn't think much about it, and arched my hand towards Liu Sichen and the other five scholars, which could be regarded as a hello.
This private room is our private room, but the layout is very different, there are two upper seats in the room, there are a few guest seats below, and then there is a screen on the left side, which is probably the seat for eating.
There are also some flowers and bamboos in it, and the whole room is full of elegance.
That Liu Sichen had also seen him now, put away the fan and asked him eagerly, "Brother Zhou, why did you come here?" ”
He and Zhou Qi had already agreed that he could completely ignore the things in this shop, but when he came suddenly, he thought that something was going on in the shop.
"Brother Liu, can you take a step to speak?"
After speaking, Zhou Qi also glanced at the other five scholars who looked like men.
He doesn't have much of an impression of these people, maybe he's seen them, but he can't recognize them now, the only thing he can be sure of is that these people aren't the first people he has seen selling toothbrushes.
Liu Sichen nodded, and was about to go out when the scholars spoke.
"Liu Xiucai, we all paid the money, and the poem just now is not finished, how can you just leave without it?"
"That's right, Liu Xiucai, we have a small business at home, and it's not as profitable as the toothbrush shop of the shopkeeper Zhou, and I stole five taels of silver from home..."
Liu Sichen paused, and he was a gentleman again.
"That's not the right thing."
Then he looked at Zhou Qi again: "Brother Zhou's literary talents are extraordinary, or do you want to talk about literature and poetry here with us first?" I'll talk about the rest of the story..."
Zhou Qi just wanted to cover his face now, he didn't like this crepe way of speaking very much, so he waved his hand.
"Let's talk first, I'll wait for you downstairs."
But as soon as the scholars sitting in the guest seats heard this, someone immediately spoke with a little mockery.
"How can Liu Xiucai say that the shopkeeper of a room is extraordinary? Isn't that the one who sells that toothbrush? ”
Then another person followed and said: "That's Liu Xiucai's humility, are you really serious?" Didn't you see that the shopkeeper himself resigned this week? What kind of writing can it have? ”
"Oh, that's my naivety, sorry sorry..."
Zhou Qi, who just wanted to go out, lifted half of his legs, and when he heard what they said, he also paused, turned around and walked to the main seat, and sat down with a butt.
The scholars all frowned, their expressions very dissatisfied.
"Wait, I don't know, although our brother Zhou is a businessman, he is also a person who has read books and learned to write, and he is similar to you."
Liu Sichen saw that Zhou Qi stayed, and he played a round with him in a comfortable mood.
"Similar to us? We are also students of the Jiazi class of Wenzhu Academy, how can we take a room of shopkeepers to be on a par with us? ”
"I heard that Shopkeeper Zhou is still a person from the village, and I'm afraid I don't have much to learn, right?"
"I don't even understand this Xi Zhiyi, it's obviously that vulgar person..."
The expression on Liu Sichen's face, who heard this disobedience, changed, and he was already a little unhappy, and just wanted to explain to Zhou Qi again, a pair of hands grabbed him.
I saw Zhou Qi shake his head indifferently, pointed to the upper seat on the other side, and then spoke: "I, Zhou Qi, am indeed from a mountain village, but I am on par with you?" You don't deserve it..."
When the scholars heard this, they couldn't sit still, and they chattered again, and their mouths were already speechless, and they were completely out of the spirit of scholars.
"Labor and management see that you can't even read poems, what kind of calf are you pretending to be here?!"
Zhou Qi almost laughed, since these scholars were embarrassed by themselves, and he happened to be ready to continue to take the road of the original master's imperial examination, even if he didn't go to the academy, then when the examination was held, he would have to meet these scholars sooner or later, so why don't you give them some color and take a look?
