Chapter 588: Understanding the Character of the Literati surnamed Zhang

The scholar and Huang Guan had no objection, Huang Guan took out the three pieces of paper with information written on them that he handed over to him yesterday, continued to fold them into sticks according to the traces, and motioned for Wu to draw lots: "Your luck is better, so you can draw it." ”

Wu Yong didn't shirk, so he directly reached out and took the stick in the middle, opened it and saw that it was the literati surnamed Zhang.

The scholar and Huang nodded: "Okay, then the first one is this one, and when the time comes, the second one will choose the one close to his house, so as to save time." ”

Wu Yong had no objection, and the matter was decided.

The breakfast on the shopkeeper's side was prepared quickly, and after Xiao Er, who had been assigned to serve Wu Yong and them, brought breakfast to the three of them, he also asked them about the taste of dry food they liked: "Just in case, we still have to be prepared to eat in the carriage." ”

Wu Yong: "Then prepare me some light dry food, you can also choose other flavors, but I suggest you choose the same as me." "If you eat too much dry food in the carriage, then you will definitely need to drink more water, and it will be more embarrassing to solve some problems at that time.

Another point is that there will definitely be a lot of oil in the dry food with a heavy taste, and on the bumpy carriage, even people who are not originally motion sick will get motion sickness.

The scholars still trusted Wu Yong's suggestion, but they still asked: "Prepare some pickles for us to eat." "Otherwise, the dry food will be hard to swallow.

After Xiao Er made a note of their request, he went to the kitchen and asked the chef to prepare.

Wu Yong and the three of them began to enjoy their breakfast, and the shopkeeper obviously took into account that they would have to stay in the carriage for a long time, and the breakfast soup prepared for them was very small, mainly to fill their stomachs, and the only liquid thing was a small bowl of milk soup per person.

Wu drank it with a little dissatisfaction, but did not ask for another bowl, and began to carry the gift they had prepared last night into the wagon.

The coachman hurriedly stepped forward to help, and Xiao Er put a box of dry food into the compartment of the carriage, and there was cotton wool for insulation in the compartment to prevent the dry food from becoming cold and hard.

The shopkeeper also asked them to prepare a small charcoal stove and tea set, and when they were thirsty on the road, they could make their own tea and drink.

Wu thanked the shopkeeper for his intentions, saw that the scholar and Huang Guan were already waiting for him in the carriage, and reminded him to remember to send the letter before returning to the carriage.

The shopkeeper was a little helpless when he saw that Wu Yong remembered this in the end, but after sending Wu Yong away, he let his people go on this trip, so that he could get more real feedback.

After Wu used the carriage, he focused his attention on the first literati they were going to visit: "When we get to the vicinity of this literati's house, let's go to the neighbors to understand this person's temper, I have just learned from the shopkeeper that he has been sent to their house yesterday, so we don't need to worry about going empty, we just need to complete this visit well, whether we can invite success is secondary." Therefore, it is still necessary to understand the temper of this literati surnamed Zhang in advance.

Shutong and Huang nodded: "Although these people will definitely show their good side in front of outsiders, we can still analyze their character from their style of acting." ”

The three of them decided to act separately when the time came, and then analyze and discuss together.

The little two sent to them by the shopkeeper sat next to the coachman, and when they finished discussing, they came in and reported: "We are still about half an hour away from Zhang Ju's house, you can recuperate first, and I will come in to inform the three of you when you get to the place." ”

Wu Yong doesn't care, the scholar and Huang Guan are seizing the time to rest, they still have a lot of things to do today, so they must maintain sufficient physical strength.

Half an hour later, Xiao Er lifted the curtain again and came in: "We have arrived." ”

Wu Yong opened his eyes as soon as possible, wiped his face with the warm towel prepared by Xiao Er, and watched him shake the scholar and Huang Guan awake: "Let's get off the carriage now, and then disperse to collect information, and come back in a quarter of an hour, how about it?"

The scholar and Huang Guan had no objections, they had to visit the other two later, so it was not good to consume too much time at the beginning.

The three of them went their separate ways, and Xiao Er and the coachman parked the carriage in an unobtrusive place and waited for them to return.

After walking along the stone road for a while, Wu Yong met an old farmer who was working in the vegetable garden, and took the opportunity to ask for directions, and chatted with him about the situation of the Zhang Juren on their side: "We heard that there is a Zhang Juren here, so we want the child to come here to apprentice, but we don't know how he is a person, and we want to ask the old man what you think." ”

The reason Wu Yong found was also the same as their purpose this time, and the expression on her face at this time was very sincere, just like she really had a child to study.

The old farmer lived near Zhang Ju's house, and he also saw a lot of parents who came to apprentice with their children, but he didn't doubt Wu Yong's purpose, and explained to Wu Yong with a happy smile on his face: " Zhang Juren is the most learned person on our side, and he is also very kind, the stone road you are stepping on is paved by his money, every year people come to apprentice, however, Zhang Juren has very high requirements for disciples, and will not easily accept disciples, the disciples who are currently studying with him are only three people, he must have seen the disciple himself before accepting the disciple, if you don't bring your child, there is not much hope. ”

Wu Yong smiled and agreed: "That's really a very responsible teacher, you seem to know this Zhang Juren very well, do you have any dealings on weekdays?"

Wu Yong was afraid that he would meet a nursery, so he planned to test it more.

The old farmer didn't notice this, and honestly explained: "Zhang Ju's family does not have anyone to farm, and often buys the grain and vegetables of the neighbors around him. ”

When Wu Yong heard this, he didn't ask any further, because the time was almost up: "I'm bothering you, I still plan to try, if it really doesn't work then, I'll go back and bring my kid." ”

The old farmer nodded: "Then I wish you well." ”

Wu Yong said goodbye to the old farmer and went back to the place they had agreed on before to wait for the scholar and Huang Guan to come back, and after a long wait, they also returned here, and the three of them began to exchange the news they had gotten.

After some analysis, Wu Yong and they all felt that this literati surnamed Zhang had put a lot of effort into his surface kung fu and cherished his feathers, as for his true character, he still had to look at the real person to communicate with him.

Wu Yong proposed: "In that case, let's go knock on the door together." ”
