The truth that reading should also give benefits, of course the four princes and Zhang Chen understand. However, both of them were suddenly brought out by Zhang Shou, one didn't have time to bring money at all, the other was penniless when he left the palace, and Zhang Chen even had his entourage matched by Zhang Shou, and the four princes brought Xiao Peanut and Xiao Cheng, two pickers who had to break a penny in half, where did they get benefits?

Even the sugar cubes that Yang Hao gave out when he coaxed people to read were bought by Yang Hao himself...... Just rushed this, Zhang Chen felt too embarrassed, this was the first time in his life that he tasted the taste of a hero who is hard to die for a penny.

He was going to open the way by throwing money, but he was provoked by Zhang Shousan's words and didn't react, so he came out empty-handed, and then was thrown by Zhang Shou in this poor countryside......

What is this village near Tongzhou, a large number of people here have never been to Tongzhou at all, the village chief has been, but he is very embarrassed to tell him that it is not easy to walk on the road in this cold weather, and there are not a few animals in the village, so he dare not lend him to Tongzhou, and Zhang Shou had an order before leaving, not to let them run around, otherwise he can't afford to pay this responsibility if something happens!

Thinking that the village chief had vaguely hinted before that Zhang Shou might still have eyeliner here, therefore, Zhang Shou said that they would not give benefits at this time, Zhang Chen couldn't help but complain: "Mr. Xiao, you lend me two hundred yuan, of course I can give enough benefits, but I don't have money now!" It's hard to move an inch without money, you all know that these guys can't afford to make a profit, and let us waste our efforts here! ”

But the fourth prince is used to pretending to be well-behaved in front of Zhang Shou, he is not as direct as Zhang Chen, he stood up and flattered Zhang Shou and went around to Zhang Shou's back to pinch his shoulder, and then whispered: "Teacher, I also want to give them benefits, but ask and ask, people here don't know how to spin and weave, and they can't grow mulberry and silkworms, and their farming skills are just mediocre." ”

"Although those overseas seeds are very productive, isn't it time for spring planting?" The fourth prince tried his best to show that he had also thought about it, not Zhang Chen's local tyrant style who only knew how to spend money, seeing that Zhang Shou smiled and didn't speak, he continued to say skillfully, "Since the teacher is here, then dial us?" ”

This time, he never mentioned the word bet. You know, if this continues, the bet between him and Zhang Chen will completely become a joke - and if Luo Sanhe, a guy who is unwilling to join them and is taken to another village by Zhang Shou, wins, then he will definitely want to die headlong!

Although Zhang Chen said that he couldn't be as dog-legged as the fourth prince, but the fourth prince opened his mouth first, he thought that it was not a scandal to ask Zhang Shou, so he couldn't help but whisper at the moment: "I also asked those boys before, don't you want to go into the city to have a look?" There are big mansions in the city, silk and satin, fine food and wine, and many beautiful people who are like paintings. Results ......"

He paused, and his face darkened a little: "As a result, those boys listened to the shouting and shouting, but when they really said that they were going to enter the city, they all shook their heads desperately. Some people say that if you live in the city for one night, you will spend all the grain that the family has beaten for a year, some people say that one meal in the city is enough for the family to eat for a month, and some people say that the women in the city will deceive people and deceive the rich man into a poor man, I don't know who said it! ”

Zhang Shou gritted his teeth when he heard Zhang Chen's words, but after he was slightly stunned, he laughed.

How can it be so similar to saying that the city is a devil's cave infested with demons and monsters so similar to adults scaring children into saying that there are big bad wolves on the mountain? Seeing that the fourth prince was also nodding desperately there, he thought that he couldn't fool his little friends, so he was angry in his heart, so he asked with a smile: "Do you want to coax them to Tongzhou?" ”

Seeing that the two of them were silent for a while, Xiao Cheng wanted to speak and stopped, so he continued with a smile: "I don't expect that Zhang Chen will not go to Tongzhou City to find someone from your Qin State Mansion to help because he has no money and no helpers, so this time I went to the city to let these country children see how big the world is, so they have the intention of going out, so that they can study hard?" ”

"It's a good idea, it's kind of brainy."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shou would affirm his own approach, Zhang Chen was suddenly overjoyed, but the next moment, Zhang Shou suddenly changed his words and asked, "What about the cost of entering the city?" Did you tell them that everything is wrapped around you? ”

"Of course Zhang Chen said it!"

This time, the four princes couldn't help but help Zhang Chen speak. He didn't care that the two of them were the opponents of the bet, and hurriedly said: "He told those boys at that time that he would go to Tongzhou with him to eat and drink spicy food, and pick out a few new clothes, this promise is clearly given!" ”

"Very good...... The question is, do people believe it? ”

Zhang Shou asked unhurriedly again, and then saw the big and small bear children glancing at each other, and at the same time they were silent, he knew that these two people who couldn't even afford to coax the children were poor and poor, and they couldn't win people's trust at all. Of course, the village chief, who was obviously too smart, should also be the one who fueled the trouble.

"Look, you've been here for a few days, not only have you not made any progress, but you may also be regarded as a prodigal who was kicked out of your family, isn't that very aggrieved? If it weren't for me and King Jiangdu coming to visit you today, even if we continued to stay, what would have happened if you said it yourself? ”

"Instead of bringing people into the city and letting them eat and drink spicy food and enjoy the scenery of Tongzhou, it is better to say that as long as you study hard and study well, you will be able to find him a job with 20 yuan a year in the future! You must know that 20 yuan is enough for a few people in this kind of village to live for a year. As for their elders, if they don't believe you......"

"Zhang Chen, you won't write a note and ask the elders to go to Tongzhou City to find the steward of your family's industry, and then give that guy a ten-day and half-month short-term job, so that people can make a small profit before the Chinese New Year? Zheng Qi, you are the same, write a note and introduce people to your Yingying's sister's shop in Tongzhou City to do a few days of work with less money and more money, isn't this okay? ”

"I forbade you to come directly to this village to disrupt your gambling game, but I did not forbid you to use your imagination to the fullest. Remember, it is a liar who abducts and deceives, and the one who is good at fooling is likely to be the prime minister of the dynasty or even the Son of Heaven himself. The liar is shouted and beaten by everyone, but the latter coaxes people, and there are fewer people who are willing to take the bait? ”

"Teacher, if your father hears this, he will definitely scold you for talking nonsense!"

The fourth prince said this, but he laughed heartily. Zhang Shou came so personally and explained the scale clearly, so he would be much easier to operate. Although he is not like Zhang Chen, the money and manpower of the entire Qin State Mansion can be squandered at will, but this time, Zhang Shou will not let this guy come like that, and he will also borrow Zhu Ying's shop to support him, then it will be flattened!

Zhang Shou just smiled at the words of the fourth prince, and when he saw that Zhang Chen was rolling his eyes, he said with a smile: "But, don't think about borrowing the property over there to send money and things to you here, I said hello to Qin Guogong's side, and Yingying's industry is the same." By the way, I'll give you a hint that I used a trick when I was teaching in the village. ”

Seeing this time, even the relatively honest Xiao Cheng blinked at Zhang Shou, not to mention Zhang Chen and the four princes. However, the next moment, the three of them were stunned by the answer Zhang Shou said.

"When reciting poems, those who can recite them will give candy to eat, but recite ninety-nine songs, that is, who can memorize the fastest, when paying the tenant rent, pay half less tenant rent, I am afraid that some people don't understand, and specially tell them, what does it mean to pay half less tenant rent."

"That means that they can eat more white rice and white noodles at home, it means that they will not eat bran vegetables because of the large population, and it means that they can make more new clothes for the New Year......"

"Why did I pick out Xiao Qi and Deng Xiao Derpy in the first place? Needless to say, his father is at least a showman, but Deng Xiaodao has several children in the family, and although his uncle is a small official in the Shuntian Mansion, he can't take care of so many nephews at all. When Deng Xiaodao first learned, he didn't even know a few words, but because I said that I would pay half less tenant rent, he was obsessed. ”

"He is indeed very talented, after I just finished reading the ninety-nine song, I immediately jumped up and recited it, and it was not wrong word for word, and I was scolded by other red-eyed children for cheating. However, he really didn't know how to read, and no one in the whole village would teach him this except for me, an idler. Later, I did what I said and begged my mother to waive their rent for half a year. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Shou couldn't help but laugh dumbly. thought that he really thought that this large piece of land nearby belonged to their family, and he was an invisible landowner, but after three years, he met Zhu Ying, and then he knew that Zhu Jing, the Duke of Zhao, was just using the tenant rent of this large piece of land to raise him, a child son-in-law. Of course, now that the child's son-in-law has turned positive, and Zhu Ying has also brought her to marry on that land.

In the end, that piece of land really became his Zhang family!

But Zhang Chen and the four princes didn't expect that Zhang Shou had already flown out of 108,000 miles at this time. They heard Zhang Shou's extraordinary reward...... Or incentives, all of a sudden, I thought about how to start with Zhang Shou's practice, and then carry forward this kind of incentive.

The two of them are no longer golden branches and jade leaves who don't understand the fireworks in the world, and they are the children of Guijie, of course they know what the so-called half of the tenant rent is for ordinary people. But if this is their own Zhuangzi, of course they can do this, the question is, this Baijia Village is not their Zhuangzi, how can they fight for rent-free?

Seeing that Zhang Chen and the four princes were looking at each other, they were obviously desperately using their brains to figure out a way, Zhang Shou smiled and reminded again: "Miss Ye is not just here to judge. She and the landlord of Baijia Village are relatives, if you want to be free of tenant rent, of course you will pay the money yourself in the future, so if you move her, in fact, it is very convenient for you to do things. ”

"In short, to give benefits, you must remember that you must not speak in vain, but let people see tangible benefits."

"Don't mention anything that is not profitable and can't be early, the world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit. The common people, livelihood first, you can't pay a penny, empty words, who believes you! ”

"Don't worry, little sir, I really understand this time!" Zhang Chen patted his chest, then glanced at the fourth prince who was rolling around in those small eyes, and suddenly said, "However, will the bet between me and Zheng Qiang continue?" It's not that I'm saying that he's too young to be trusted by nature. It's better for me to be wronged and take him with me. ”

"Who wants you to bring it!" The fourth prince instinctively said a sentence, but after the words came out, he saw Zhang Shou looking at him with a smile, thinking that he and Xiao Cheng of Little Peanut had originally visited the market to investigate and make plans, which could be regarded as quite prepared, but when he was suddenly abandoned in this small village, he was still dumbfounded and unable to move an inch, so he finally whispered, "I still have Little Peanut and Xiao Cheng!" ”

Xiao Cheng didn't think about it so much, nodded bluntly and said, "Zhang Gongzi's suggestion is good. There are only five of us in total, and they don't quite believe us now, if you still bet with Zhang Gongzi, the strength is scattered, maybe there will be no result in a month...... However, Brother Zhang, do you think this Baijia Village can really select talents? ”

"Who knows?" Zhang Shou casually said something that made people feel foggy, but he saw Zhang Chen and the four princes glaring at each other, although the eyes were like swords and guns, and they hit an extraordinary spark, but in the end, they did not deny the suspension of the gambling contract and work together to win, he couldn't help but laugh.

Outside the door, the village chief, who wanted to get close to Zhang Shou and say a few more words, looked away under the gaze of Zhang Shou's entourage, but he was really curious about what Zhang Shou was talking about. He originally thought that he could easily figure out the details of the two sons and brothers in it in the past few days, but it turned out that one of the three companions was very grinning but had a very tight mouth, and the other two were clever and the other was skilled in martial arts, so it was not easy to deal with.

What made him most unable to start was the two sons, one big and one small, who really wanted to pick out a few talents in Baijia Village...... Don't say that he doesn't believe that this is the real purpose of the two, and those Zhuang families don't believe it either, plus the Ye family is more famous in Tongzhou, so there are more people who want to send their children to the Ye family on errands.

As for reading...... That's so much trouble, can you still take the top exam after reading it?

So, when Zhang Shou came out of the house, the village chief, who had been waiting while looking at the cold wind, immediately trotted forward to meet him. But before he could say anything, Zhang Shou laughed and said, "It seems that the two in it are tight-lipped, you still don't know their origins, right?" ”

Seeing that the village chief was full of scorn, he said bluntly: "That person who is about the same age as me is the eldest son of the Duke of Qin. ”

Faced with such a mystery revealed by Zhang Shou, the village chief's shocked expression flashed away, and then he said with a smile on his face that it was no wonder, but he was thinking in his heart, since the eldest is the eldest son of the Duke of Qin, the other child is surnamed Zheng, is it a relative of the emperor? Located in a remote area, it was already outrageous for him to hear those rumors about Zhang Shou, so he didn't expect it to be on the fourth prince at all.

And Zhang Shou directly revealed Zhang Chen's identity, paused, and said to the village chief with a smile: "Next, if they have anything to do, you will do your best to help." Not to mention that they are doing things sincerely this time, even if they just come down to play, what leaks through their fingernails is enough to change the future of this village. ”

"Didn't you say to Yang Laoqi that you envy my village? Now is a great opportunity not to get carried away by the speculation and suspicion. ”
