"The students used to be fast, and the monthly income was low, so I am afraid that the dean will not be satisfied." Zhou Yan bowed slightly, first explaining the difficulty.

I'm a poor and white little catcher, if you reach out in the coffin and ask for money, it's not quite in line with the identity of a Confucian, right?

As long as the other party accepts this, the rest will be easy.

After he finished speaking, he raised his head slightly, observing the dean's facial expression.

Then I felt that it was not good, and the other party's face was slightly gloomy, and he didn't seem to be very satisfied with this answer.

Fortunately, the dean hadn't fully penetrated into the eyes of the money, and his two fingers were still pointing at the table, "Your difficulties Li Chengfeng has already said in the letter, but it's just ......"

He pondered for a moment, "It's just that our academy has always had rules, and if we set this precedent for you, it will be difficult to convince the public." ”

He spoke sincerely, and his expression was sincere, as if he was really embarrassed.

But Zhou Yan heard the sound of the strings, and he knew that the other party must want to squeeze out his savings as much as possible.

Otherwise, why not just quote a price?

After a conversation, neither of them tried each other's depth, and the situation seemed to be frozen.

But Zhou Yan knew that the other party had the advantage in the end, and now he was just waiting for the price to sell.

And if he wants to learn Confucian art, he must worship under the academy.

In any case, he had to give in first.

But there must be a way before the car reaches the mountain, just a few words, just a trial, he already has a way to deal with it.

So he bowed again, "Can you let the students speak closer?" ”

The dean's eyes lit up, he had sat in this position for so many years, and he had already practiced the ability to know the elegance of listening to the string songs, and immediately beckoned: "Come." ”

Zhou Yan stepped forward, separated from the dean by a plan, he still felt that he was not close enough, his hands were propped up on the case, his upper body leaned forward, and he poked his head out like a thief, and said: "Although I don't have much silver taels, I have brought a lot of sustenances with me when I go out this time, I wonder if it can be used to offset the tuition?" ”

He deliberately accentuated the word "local specialty" in order to lead the other party to think wildly.

When the dean heard this, his face really stretched a lot.

In office for many years, he has cultivated into an adult, how can he not understand what the so-called "local specialty" is.

This kid seems to be quite good. He mused.

Just now, when he saw Zhou Yan twisting and pinching, pushing three and four, he still felt that the other party had no eyesight to see, but at this time, he was still quite sensible.

He continued to tap the table and said, "As long as you can make up for the tuition." ”

When he spoke, his demeanor was calm and tight.

This old fox! Zhou Yan scolded secretly.

If it's really so bright, you can't get a price.

But at this moment, he has not yet spoken, he is still under the eaves of people, so he has to continue to bow down and whisper: "What do you mean? Souvenirs can also arrive? ”

The top priority is to get the approval of the other party.

"That's nature." The dean, like Li County, also has a beautiful hair, and since the two met, he brushed his beard for the first time.

"Preaching and receiving employment is the most important thing in my Confucianism, and naturally there is no reason to turn people away." He then said in a dignified manner.

"It's just that Confucianism has always been polite, and the rules set by the sage, I don't want to be careless, since you are recommended by Li Chengfeng, you should understand my difficulties."

It's all over for you. Zhou Yan sneered.

But after finally getting the other party's approval, your dean Chrysostom Yuyan, the words he said are spilled water, and it is not easy to take it back.

That being the case, then it's no wonder that someone in my Jiang is rude.

He smiled to himself, and then asked, "Then I will take out the special product and let the gentleman see it." ”

The dean was flustered by his special product on the left and the special product on the right, and happily agreed: "You might as well take it out and take a look." ”

At this time, he still did not forget his identity as a teacher, and his posture was still sufficient.

Zhou Yan didn't move immediately, but pointed to the table and said, "Is it okay to put it on the table?" ”

"Yes." The dean stroked his beard for the second time and nodded.

At the same time, I also muttered in my heart: At most, there are only a few pearls, and if they are photographed, why bother to make a fuss?

As the dean of one of the nine academies of Confucianism, he is very knowledgeable, needless to say, the most noteworthy specialty in Yushi County is probably only pearls.

Although this small catch is recommended by Li Chengfeng, the oil and water that should be scraped are still indispensable.

At the same time, you can use this to knock the other party, and if you catch fast, you will inevitably get a little bad habits, and you have to let the other party know that the academy is no better than other places, and you must be cautious about being a person and doing learning.

Zhou Yan got his consent and saluted again, "That student is offended." ”

As he spoke, he took out the bag of mustard seeds from his bosom.

The dean was well-informed, and immediately gave up the bag in his hand, and immediately gave birth to a trace of malaise.

But it was too late, I saw Zhou Yan put his hand into the bag, and after playing with it twice, he took out a piece of bacon!

After putting the bacon on the table, he kept moving in his hands, and took out the cured chicken, salted fish, and preserved duck from the mustard seed bag one after another......

After a short time, he took out all the wax goods given by his colleagues in the county government and piled them on the table between the two.

The dean was dumbfounded.

He would never have thought that the "souvenir" in the other party's mouth was really a souvenir!

Where's my pearl? He's all over the table right now.

After Zhou Yan took out all the wax goods, he let out a sigh of relief, he had been struggling with how to deal with these things.

I shouldn't have the opportunity to make a fire, so these thoughts can only be watched. It just so happened that the dean asked for tuition, so he might as well borrow flowers to offer Buddha, the best of both worlds.

It's no wonder that Li County asked him to accept it, and even didn't hesitate to give himself a mustard seed bag. It turned out that he also knew that the academy might make a fuss here.

Thinking of Li County's meticulous care, his heart warmed again.

In the past, many dignitaries and nobles stuffed money and gifts, and wanted to send their sons to study in the hospital, but someone sent them to the hospital. How did Li Chengfeng bring people?

In fact, this is a cognitive fallacy, he himself was born in a family, and naturally spent a lot of money to study when he was young, and the same is true of his classmates.

When he took the helm of the college, he saw and heard the same thing.

Over time, I subconsciously thought that students must have a lot of money to study.

Coupled with the fact that the academy has been running a deficit year after year, everyone who enrolls in the school has to be knocked out by him. Over time, it has become a habit.

So when Zhou Yan came out with this play, his mind was a little cloudy.

Zhou Yan didn't care whether he was blindsided or not, and asked, "Dean, can these be deducted from tuition?" ”

There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, your dean is a big man, and the existence of a man of all his words is not easy to backtrack, right?

Besides, these wax goods are packaged and sold, and it seems that they can also be worth some silver taels.

The dean's face was heavy, and he stroked his long beard for the third time, and this time he used a little more force, and actually tore off a few of them.

He didn't expect to be put on a table by the juniors, but at this time, he could only knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach, he took a breath quietly, and after calming down, he nodded slightly: "That's enough, I'll find someone to help you register for school." ”

Stinky boy, this account, we will calculate it slowly in the future.

When Zhou Yan heard this, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart, in fact, he had secretly organized the language, if the dean was not satisfied with his "tuition", he would move out of the rules of the Confucian sages in another world, and tell him that bacon can really be used as tuition.

Fortunately, the other party has been persuaded by him, and he has saved a lot of tongues.

From today on, he will officially become a Confucian disciple.
