Chapter 270
Zhouzhuang
The Lin Family Academy is about to enroll students. As long as the villagers of Zhouzhuang have children to study, they will not only be provided with food for free, but also reduce the rent of the children, which makes the whole Zhuangzi boil.
When Goudan heard the news, he ran home excitedly.
"Father, mother!"
Zhou A Niu quickly asked: "God, what happened in such a panic?"
Goudan panted for a while and said, "Father, the school will start after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I can study now!"
Shen Yue'e just came out of the house, and when she heard Goudan's words, she asked in surprise: "Really?"
Goudan nodded and said, "Of course it's true. Lizheng has been notified from door to door. I ran back when I heard it. Otherwise, Lizheng should have come to our house."
Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.
Just as Goudan finished speaking, Zhou Mancang's voice came.
"A Niu, everyone is at home."
Zhou Aniu quickly responded: "Uncle Mancang is here, come in quickly. Yue'e go pour water."
Zhou Mancang waved his hand and said, "Don't bother, I'll leave after I finish speaking, there are still many families to notify."
"Uncle Mancang, just tell me what you have." Zhou Aniu said.
Although Goudan had told him just now, he didn't explain the specifics clearly.
Zhou Mancang talked about the enrollment of the college, and said: "A Niu, although your family doesn't have to pay the rent this year, it will still have to be paid next year. When the college starts, send the dog eggs, and your family only needs to pay the rent. I paid [-]% of the rent."
Zhou Aniu nodded and said, "Uncle Mancang, don't worry, I will definitely send Goudan to study when the time comes."
Now the matter of the imperial examination has been rumored.
Ordinary people may not feel much, but Zhou Aniu was a soldier before, so he can somewhat understand the benefits of the revised imperial examination.
Although there were imperial examinations in the past, the number of people admitted by the imperial examinations was very small.
Most officials still rely on recommendation.
But it is different now, the imperial court has ordered that from then on, all officials must be selected through imperial examinations.
Although he felt that even if Goudan studied, he might not be able to pass the exam.
But what if?
Moreover, reading is not only free of food, but also can reduce or exempt rent, which fools don't want.
The most important thing is that Lin Xuan once told them that Erya can learn medical skills and reduce rent.
In this way, their family only needs to pay [-]% of the rent.
Zhou Mancang nodded and said, "Then I'll go first, and I have to notify other families."
After Zhou Mancang left, Zhou Aniu's family was very excited.
After a long time, Zhou Aniu calmed down his excitement and said, "Yue'e, go buy some cloth to make new clothes for Goudan and Erya. You can't wear too shabby clothes when you go to study."
Shen Yue'e nodded, she originally planned to make new clothes for the two children.
Goudan and Erya's clothes were remade by her from adult's rags.
Now the situation at home is a little better, of course it needs to be improved.
……
After Lin Xuan left the barracks, he came to the old house of the Lin family.
Since moving out of the city, only a few servants remained in the old house, responsible for cleaning.
In order to prevent servants from being lazy because the master's house is not there, they need to come and see frequently.
Lin Xuan walked around and was very satisfied to see that the old house was well taken care of.
"Roar!"
Suddenly there were several whistling sounds, causing chaos.
Lin Xuan patted his head, no wonder he always felt as if he had forgotten something.
Not long after, four big tigers, two small and four tigers rushed to Lin Xuan's side.
Not seen for several months, the two cubs are already half the size of adult tigers.
Lin Xuan stretched out his hand to push the tigers away, he really couldn't stand their intimate ways.
"Okay, I will definitely take you with me this time."
Because after the move, I had to entertain guests again, so I didn't bring them with me at the beginning.
Who knew that after moving, I was busy and busy, so I forgot.
Lin Xuan ordered Liu Da to find some carriages, and started playing with some tigers.
When Liu Da found the carriage, Lin Xuan comforted him for a long time before letting the tigers stay on the carriage obediently.
In order not to cause panic, Lin Xuan asked someone to cover it with a cloth.
Suddenly plunged into darkness, several tigers were very disturbed, Lin Xuan comforted them for a long time before calming them down.
When he came to the Lin Mansion outside the city, Lin Xuan asked someone to drive the carriage to the back mountain.
After putting down the tigers, Lin Xuan pointed to the back mountain and said, "You will live here from now on."
"Roar!"
The four tigers roared, and put their heads on Lin Xuan, very reluctant to give up.
"Okay, I will visit you often in the future."
Lin Xuan was speechless, you are tigers, not dogs.
Lin Xuan was a little lucky, if he hadn't accidentally gone back today, these tigers would have lost their wildness if they continued to raise them.
After comforting for a long time, the four tigers went to the back mountain step by step and turned their heads three times.
Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, they will settle down in the back mountain from now on, just need to let some animals in from time to time.
However, it is still necessary to inform the people of Zhouzhuang that they must not go to the back mountain in the future.
Although tigers usually don't hurt people after his confession, those common people will definitely be frightened when they see them.
After Lin Xuan returned home, he told Butler Lin what to do.
Back in the yard, Lin Xuan thought about it and called Lin Ping over.
"You pick some honest ones, I'm useful." Lin Xuan said.
Lin Ping didn't ask any more questions, and hurried to do it.
Not long after, Lin Ping brought three men and two women over.
Lin Xuan looked at it and was very satisfied. These five people seemed to be very honest, and they were all in their 30s.
"I have something to entrust to you. I may go to other places to stay for a few years. As long as you handle the matter well, I can return your deeds of prostitution to you and make you good citizens." Lin Xuan looked at several said the man.
Their contracts of sale are all in the Lin family, and Lin Xuan is not worried about their loyalty.
"Little willing!" Several people said excitedly.
They were all sold into slavery when their families could not survive in their early years.
If the master does not let go, not only they, but even their children will always be slaves.
Lin Xuan nodded and ordered Lin Ping to get some wet tea leaves.
Guanzhong area also has tea, but it is not a famous tea.
In addition, it is more than August now, although the tea leaves at this time are very old, they can still be used to make fried tea.
Although dried green tea tastes good, it is still much worse than fried tea.
Anyway, he always felt that it was worse than fried tea.
Lin Xuan has never fried tea, but since fried tea is fried, it is nothing more than frying tea leaves in a pot.
After spending an entire afternoon frying dozens of pots, I finally figured out the general method.
Anyway, it looks like that. As for whether it tastes good or not, we can only know when they fire it next year.
After finishing all this work, Lin Xuan told Lin Ping to prepare some tea leaves for them, let them practice more, and send them to the tea garden after the Chinese New Year.
Next year's tea will be roasted before being sent to Chang'an.
……
Cui Lingdao put down the letter, looked at Cui Yi and asked, "What do you think about this matter?"
Cui Yi pondered for a while, and said, "Father, although I have never had contact with Lin Xuan, I don't believe he would be so kind."
No matter what, they seem to have taken advantage of the cooperation with Lin Xuan.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, although he can't think of what Lin Xuan's idea is.
Cui Lingdao nodded and said, "You're right."
Cui Yi said: "What does that father mean, to refuse this cooperation?"
Cui Lingdao shook his head and said, "Why don't you cooperate?"
Cui Yi was a little puzzled, Cui Lingdao clearly agreed with his words, thinking that Lin Xuan was plotting against them, why did he agree?
Cui Lingdao smiled and said: "Although the old man didn't see what Lin Xuan was planning, our Cui family is not at a disadvantage, is it?"
"We are cooperating with Lin Xuan. If the other companies know about it, will they boycott us?" Cui Yi said hesitantly.
Cui Lingdao smiled smugly: "Boycott us? Why boycott us? Aren't we also being tricked?"
Cui Yi was taken aback for a moment, then came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "Father, you are right."
