0742 Reading is useful

But all those who serve as errand officers are people with excellent vision, and they know what Wang Da thinks at a glance, and he pouts at the moment and says, "What's the matter, can't you believe the path that the master pointed out to you?"

Wang Dalian shook his head and said, "Don't dare, don't dare! It's just that the work of repairing the embankment is too heavy, and my two brothers are too young to hold on!"

The officer sneered and said, "You know a fart! Do you know who arranged it? It's Wu Ning waiting for his old man! Hou Ye is well-known for being kind to the sufferers! The food is sufficient, the wages are not deducted, and Lang Zhong will treat the sick when he is sick! If it weren't for the lack of manpower now, where would it be your turn to get you foreign mud legs!"

Hearing the errand officer mention Wu Ninghou, Wang Da immediately remembered the words of the old shopkeeper on the road who repeatedly explained, that is, "If Wu Ninghou's business recruits people to do things, you must find a way to vote for it!" As long as you go in, you will be ordered to return to your hometown, and you can bring a lot of money back!"

So he stepped forward in surprise and said, "Poor master, the embankment repair you said was arranged by Wu Ninghou?"

The servant and the helper laughed together when they saw him, and only after laughing did the caller say to the helpers, "See? See? These mud legs dare to be more serious with Lao Tzu! If it weren't for the fact that the Hou Ye is in charge of it now and the rules are big, he should have been hammered a long time ago and let him have a long time to see!"

After speaking, he slowed down his tone and said to Wang Da, "Although it is said that it is the name of the Inner Mansion over there, the real person in charge is Wu Ning and his old man! If you work under the hands of Hou Ye, you can guarantee that you will not die! You don't want your royal family's most promising roots and seedlings to be broken outside, do you?"

Wang Da was overjoyed when he heard this, and said to the messenger again and again, "Thank you for your advice! When I get paid in the future, I will definitely ask the poor master to have a drink!"

The officer waved his hand impatiently and said, "Get out! When you get your fucking salary, you won't know where to go to be happy, and you'll be looking for a drink!"

At this time, the scribe had already opened the identity certificates for the three of them, and Wang Da took the identity certificates, and walked out of the shed and walked diagonally to the opposite side with a thousand thanks.

When I entered the shed, I saw a man dressed as a eunuch sitting inside. Because he's the only one, he's yawning boringly! When he saw the three of them coming in, he hurriedly sat up straight and said, "Are you here to find a job? Show us the proof!"

After receiving the certificate, he complained about the names of the three brothers like the messenger, and after asking the reason, he said to Wang Zhengguo with interest: "Wang Zhengguo, since you said that you have been reading for a few years, you may write, but can it be counted?"

Wang Zhengguo bowed down and said, "If you go back to your nobles, although the tutor wants the student to develop on the right path of the imperial examination, the student knows that his family is poor and may not be able to support him, so he asks the teacher to teach him some economic knowledge. So there's nothing wrong with reading and writing!"

The eunuch squinted with a smile when he heard someone call him a nobleman, but he said, "You can't call our family noble, what kind of noble family is our family? But since you said you can write and calculate, then let's test you!"

Wang San is young, and he has never seen what a eunuch is like, but he is a little confused by the style of the eunuch in front of him! However, he was able to understand what he said, and hurriedly said, "Please ask Mr. to do your best!"

The eunuch first picked up a poem by Bai Juyi and read it out for Wang Zhengguo to write silently. Seeing that he wrote it, he came up with a few arithmetic problems for him to calculate, and these arithmetic problems were all calculated for earthwork and land area, and Wang Zhengguo also calculated them smoothly.

Seeing that his result was correct, the eunuch was happy and said, "Well done! In the future, you will follow our family to do things! As for the salary, you have to talk to the boss to settle it, after all, you are still young! As for your two brothers......

Speaking of this, he looked Wang Da and Wang Er up and down, and deliberately glanced at their arms and thighs twice before saying, "Seeing that your body is not bad, and you don't have any special skills, let's go dig the soil!"

Wang Da was naturally overjoyed when he saw that there was a place to work as soon as he arrived in Tianjin, and he agreed without a word. Wang San opened his mouth, but wanted to speak, but he didn't say it. And all this was seen by the eunuchs, but he still smiled without squeaking, and directly sent Wang Da and Wang Er to the back of the shed to rest, and took Wang Zhengguo to teach him how to make account books. Looks like he's glad to have someone who can help!

By the evening, the eunuch had recruited a total of seven people. He led the seven men through the city of Tianjin and towards the sea. After more than an hour of contact, Wang Zhengguo already knew that this eunuch's surname was Li and his name was Li Fa. So he said tentatively, "Gonggong Li, thank you for teaching me so much this afternoon!"

Li Fa smiled and said, "Then how are you going to thank our family?"

When Wang Zhengguo heard this, he subconsciously turned his head and wanted to look at his eldest brother, but was directly stopped by Li Fa and said, "Don't look at your brother, just think about it with your little head!"

Wang Zhengguo is originally an extremely intelligent person, although reading does not necessarily make people sophisticated, but it allows him to summarize useful things in limited information. So he quickly synthesized what the old shopkeeper taught him along the way and what he had seen and heard, and whispered in a blessed voice: "It's better like this, Gonggong Li, when I get your salary, I will honor you for a month's salary!"

When Li Fa heard this, his face smiled even brighter! Nodding again and again, he said, "Sure enough, it's a little clever ghost! But if you think about it, why did our family teach you so much this afternoon? If you can think of it, we will give you a benefit!"

When he said this, Wang Zhengguo couldn't guess! He also wanted to subconsciously take a look at his eldest brother, but Li Fa directly pressed his head and said, "I said don't look at your eldest brother, let you think for yourself!"

At this time, Wang Zhengguo suddenly thought that Li Fa taught him the most in the afternoon how to register and assign personnel, as well as explain the rules here, so he blurted out and said, "Do you want me to register and explain the rules for you here tomorrow?"

Li Fa laughed and said, "The little thing is really smart, and I guessed it at once!"

Speaking of this, he smiled, sighed, and said, "This time, the palace sent a few people from our family over, but such a big project is simply too busy! People who contribute can always be found, but the most lacking are those who can read, write and count! But there are few such people in Tianjin, and they already have a master's family! There are also some people who are stupid in reading and feel ashamed to do things for the inner house, so these few people in our family are not busy at all! So we will be with you tomorrow for another day, if you do your errand properly, our family will call your second brother over to run errands for you, and the salary will be the same as on the construction site, but you will suffer a lot less crimes!"
