His hometown is in Nanjun, from Dingbei County to Nanjun, it takes more than half a year to run, which is in line with the distance of thousands of miles.

However, if there are not enough candidates, there is no examination room.

Before Jiang Jun Shou came, the officials took into account the situation in Dingbei County, and in order to facilitate the scientific examination of his two children, they gave him such preferential treatment, as long as there were enough hundreds of scholars, he could take the exam.

This policy is good, it is convenient for his two boys, and it also happens to be convenient for Lu Zhou, and Jiang Junshou is very satisfied.

Lu Zhou was embarrassed: "But I'm not Lord Yan's own brother......"

Jiang Junshou: "It's okay, the county can write a letter of recommendation for you." ”

What kind of background are they in Dingbei County, if the card is so strict, he may not be able to gather enough for a hundred children to take the exam in five years, and he may not be able to train a person in ten years.

If Lu Zhou is tested from Dingbei County, it will be the face of their Dingbei County.

Culture and education are also one of the political achievements!

He encouraged Lu Zhou again.

After this interruption, the atmosphere of the dinner party in the evening was harmonious, and Jiang Junshou and the two county commanders discussed how to revitalize culture and education in the future, cultivate talents by themselves, and so on.

I heard that Beiting County has been building a school, and also taught all the people to learn common words, arithmetic and barbarian language, Jiang County Shou praised it repeatedly, and praised Beiting County's trade with the barbarians, and also took two county commanders to Beiting County with Lu Zhou to have a look.

They were going, Lu Zhou had to hurry up and arrange the caravan he brought to do business in Beiguan County, and he was even more busy running here and there, and the merchants who owed Lu Xu grain to negotiate with them, but in half a day, the items they brought, as well as the sauces and seasonings produced by the county government workshop, were sold.

These merchants got mutton and base materials from Lu Xu a few years ago, some went back to open food shops, and some went back to sell meat, all of which made a lot of money at the end of the year.

Moreover, because Lu Xu forced them to go back to the customs to sell goods and buy grain, they all entered the customs before the blizzard.

There are stacked peaks and mountains to block it, and the heavy snowstorm outside the pass can't enter the pass, but the cold wind and heavy snow still make them feel palpitations.

One by one, they were afraid, if it weren't for Lu Xu urging them, they would have entered the customs for the New Year a few days later, at that time, not to mention delaying business, it was really difficult to go home.

Because of this, there are a few merchants who believe in their lives and think that Lu Xu is a lucky star.

They went home and sold meat in the way taught by Lu Xu, and sure enough, they made money, and they didn't fool themselves when they came this time, they originally wanted to buy some beans and grains to deal with it, but they also found a way out of the relationship and replaced it with wheat.

They originally wanted to rely on this to brush up on Lu Xu's favors, but they didn't want Lu Xu to get grain and grass from the capital!

They were a little shocked, it turned out that people really didn't brag!

Lu Zhou heard their compliments and explained for his brother: "The grain and grass in Crouching Tiger Pass are the military food of the imperial court, and it has nothing to do with my brother, and the grain that the prince bought for my brother has been transported to Beiting County." ”

The ears of the businessmen echoed with "the prince bought for his brother", "the prince", "the prince......

They thought that Lu Xu was bragging, but he really knew the prince?!

They suddenly felt that they were nothing, especially those who originally wanted to use the Crouching Tiger Pass to detain grain and grass in order to find Lu Xu's bad luck, and put their posture as low as they wanted.

God knows, in order to make Lu Xu pay more money, they put all his money in Crouching Tiger Pass, but they riveted enough to buy food and got a lot of it!

As a result, when they left the customs, Crouching Tiger Pass had seen their contract documents stamped with the seal of the Beiting County Yamen, and they didn't even deduct a grain of rice.

As soon as they arrived at the county seat, they heard that the imperial court had paid military salaries, and hundreds of truckloads of grain were transported to Beiting County.

Listening to the sighs of those colleagues who arrived early, thanks to their early shipment, now I don't know if Beiting County still needs food, they are simply dark.

Grain in the northwest counties is already expensive, and in order to buy grain, they have smashed almost half of their family funds into it, if Lu Xu doesn't want it, who will they sell their grain?

Wait, wait, wait, hope, if they didn't dare to wear the two counties by themselves and cross the barbarians' territory, they would all be eager to go to Beiting County to find Lu Xu.

Finally looking forward to Lu Zhou, they asked Lu Zhou very earnestly: "Lu Gongzi, do we still need grain and grass in Beiting County?" ”

Although Lu Zhou suddenly didn't understand how the treacherous businessman who his brother had mentioned by name and asked him to be careful could talk so well, no routine could match supply and demand.

Lu Zhou nodded decisively: "Yes, what kind of food did you bring and how much did you have?" I want it all. ”

All merchants: "Really?!" ”

Lu Zhou: "Hmm. ”

No matter how expensive the grain in the northwest is, can it be as expensive as the capital? No matter how high the grain freight in the northwest is, can it be transported from the capital?

Lu Zhou felt that the food they brought was particularly cost-effective.

He took out a stack of silver tickets and asked gently and intimately, "Do you want silver or exchange for supplies?" This time we only brought thirty cartloads of meat and furs, and if you still want meat, I will arrange for someone to change it at once. ”

The two sons of the Jiang family, who were urged by their father to come to their house to eat and borrow books on Lu Zhou: "......"

They also wondered, why did his father think that a person who could buy thousands of stones of grain casually could not afford to hire a gentleman and could not afford to buy books?

Oh my God, the two brothers have never seen so much money in their lives!

The author has something to say:

Worried Zhouzhou: How do I tell Ah Hao that I can take the exam here......

Jiang Hao in the capital: Thunderbolt on a sunny day!!

Chapter 320: Open Meal

By the time Lu Xu and Yan Junqi came back, Lu Zhou had already become friends with the two sons of the Jiang family.

And, after discovering that the "Mr. He" in Lu Zhou's mouth was He Chengye, Jiang Junshou thought only for a second, and then packed his two sons and threw them to Beiting County to take classes with Lu Zhou.

Beiting County is good, there is Lu Zhou as a classmate, there is He Zhuangyuan's small class teaching, and he can also learn barbarian.

As the son of the county keeper of Dingbei County, how can he not speak barbaric?

For this reason, the two young masters of the Jiang family were unhappy with Lu Zhou for a while, isn't this pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger to pit them?

When the two of them really arrived, they were happy again.

He Chengye spends a quarter of his energy on the Tiger Army and government affairs every day, half of his energy is spent on teaching Avi and the barbarians, and the remaining quarter is teaching them and Lu Zhou, and Lu Zhou has endless questions, and he alone can attract most of He Chengye's energy when teaching.

In short, the two of them have never taken such an easy class since they were three years old!

He Chengye's lectures are also simple and simple, good and interesting, quoting scriptures, peeling off the cocoon, and giving examples are all things of the moment, sometimes like listening to gossip, not boring at all.

And no matter what questions they asked, Mr. He never failed to be impatient, nor did he dislike the naïve basis of the questions they asked.

In other words, He Chengye's lecture is to be able to explain very basic issues in great depth.

The most important thing is that the homework assigned to them by Mr. He is more interesting than that assigned by Mr. He.

The brothers complained to Lu Zhou in private, "Our husband is still a Confucian hired by my father in person!" ”

They now feel that their husband may be cheating on money.

Lu Zhou has not seen many gentlemen, but with his half-day contact with Mr. Jiang Jia, he can also detect that the people are very knowledgeable, which is much higher than the level of the gentlemen they learned in Guanyang County.

It's just a little harsh.

Lu Zhou said euphemistically: "You can't compare all Mr. He with Mr. He, Mr. He is the champion." ”

They have only a few champions since the founding of the country?

Which champion will run to teach?

The two brothers of the Jiang family think about it.

So I cherished the opportunity to take classes with He Chengye even more.

They have heard that He Chengye will only teach for a while, and when Yan County orders them to come back, they will have to go back to Crouching Tiger Pass.

In addition to He Chengye's classes, their greatest joy is learning to ride horses.

They have always had riding and archery lessons, but the mounted archery in the house and the mounted archery on the grassland are not the same concept at all.

Avi taught them to ride and shoot, and they could teach more to one "carefully", and learn while running around the city.

They also learn to skate with children of all ages in the county and participate in the running of the market.

The only barbarian who was slower than others began to slowly get started after a few days of mixing with Avi.

The two of them played in Beiting County for a while, and when they followed Lu Zhou to Beiguan County, the old lady at home wondered why the two quiet grandsons were all lively.

Especially the little grandson, he refuses to let him stay in Beiguan County anymore, it's still fun in Beiting County, he wants to go to the market to win a sheep!

On the day Lu Xu came back, Lu Zhou got up early as usual, sorted out the schedule, and started a busy day.

After Jiang Junshou came to Beiting County with two county orders to inspect once, he saw that Lu Zhou could control Beiting County, so he did not intervene much, but discussed with him, and when Yan Junqi and Lu Xu returned, they would work out in detail the trade routes connecting the towns in the three counties, and then select locations in the three counties and formulate fixed markets.

First of all, let the people of the three counties have no worries about their daily life materials.

Lu Zhou organized a caravan this time, which was to bring the things exchanged with the barbarians to the six towns of Jiang County Shouxuan, Beiguan County and Xifeng County, to participate in the market trade.

The merchants of Beiting County had not run so far, and this time Lu Zhou could not take them with them all the way, and they would be divided into two major directions and six small directions halfway, and they were a little panicked.

Lu Zhou was arranging what everyone was responsible for in every detail, when he suddenly heard the jubilation outside like a frying pot.

He hurriedly walked out, and before he went out, he heard Lu Xu and Yan Junqi coming back.

Lu Zhou was stunned, then ran out at a speed of 100 meters, jumped over the steps of the county government, and pounced on Lu Xu, who had only walked half of the street: "Brother! Brother--I was admitted to the Tongsheng Examination! I'm number one! ”

Lu Xu was pounced on by him, and was pleasantly surprised when he heard the words: "Really?!" ”

Immediately hugged Lu Zhou and patted him, the two brothers jumped and jumped in the middle of the street, hooking their shoulders and backs, happily making the people who didn't know much about the imperial examination process ask one after another, what is Tongsheng? What can children do? Is it possible to take the top prize if you are admitted to the children's examination?

Yan Junqi couldn't help laughing, urging the two of them not to block the road, hurry home, and give the officials who had worked hard a holiday.

The officials were not in a hurry to go home, and they all surrounded Lu Zhou to ask what a child was, and even the family members found it, and they kept asking.

Yan Junqi asked them to hurry back, and they dragged their familiar barbarian colleagues home as guests.

If you have good popularity, several people have invited you, and if you have poor popularity, you see that there are people on the left and right who have been invited, so you are left at a loss. "Who am I going with?"

In the chaos, Lu Xu raised his arms and shouted: "If you have nowhere to go, follow me!" Go to the county office and find a room to squeeze in! Avi, what about Avi? ”

Lu Zhou: "Avi took Jiang Yun and Jiang Kuo to ride horses. ”

Lu Xu: "Who are Jiang Yun and Jiang Kuo?" ”

Lu Zhou: "They are the two sons of the Jiangjun Shoujia, who are guests at our house these days and study with Mr. He." ”

Lu Xu: "Oh, Jiang Junshou? Who is Jiang Junshou? ”

He looked at Yan Junqi blankly, didn't their county guard have the surname Su?

A group of people were noisy and shouting to go back to their respective homes, and they had a stomach full of things to say for almost two months.

Lu Zhou even took out his notebook, and hurried to official business one by one, saving him from delaying the business.
