The exam is still ongoing, Zhou Peng and others are still inhumanely locked in a small private room, eating, drinking, sleeping and squeezing together like an animal.

The kind-hearted Xu Hao thought about going over to visit, but he was smoked away by the stench coming from the academy from afar. It is said that in order to prevent any illegal acts such as favoritism, no one is allowed to enter or leave the examination room, and the feces and urine in the toilet bowl of the examinees are dumped in several large vats by the soldiers, and no one is allowed to come in and pull them away.

Xu Hao was full of emotion about this, this is called working hard and tempering!

The whole exam will last for half a month, and the houses around that can live in people have been requisitioned by the imperial court, and when the crazy Zhou Peng and others come out, they have to rush to wash off the bad smell of their bodies as soon as possible, and then they are busy evaluating each other's articles and discussing the next exam, which is a critical moment to change the fate of a life, and there is no time to be idle.

Thinking of this, Xu Hao finally gave up his plan to join in the fun. On this day, the county issued a big list, and unexpectedly, Xu Hao actually won the first place in high school, and some people immediately jokingly called him Xu Jieyuan.

Mu Ang saw that his name was thirty-sixth, and said sourly: "The first place in the township test is Xie Yuan, you are really uneducated." ”

Xu Hao haha smiled: "Everyone is joking, in fact, this first place really lifts me up." ”

Someone said kindly: "Hurry up and go to meet the two adults of the county prince and Xuezheng." Now you are also a senior disciple under the two adults, and you will rely on it more in the future, and quickly prepare two generous gifts, and you must not lack the number of courtesies. ”

Xu Hao put away his smile and sneered: "I don't accept their affection, so I don't have a good heart in the first place." Whatever the door is, it's just an excuse to form a party and run a private business. If you are a gentleman, you will not see me, and if you are not a gentleman, you don't want to see them. ”

After speaking, Mu Ang was pulled out of the crowd, causing those students to look at each other, and someone opened his mouth to scold: "Once the villain gains power, he sells his reputation and reputation." ”

Xu Hao, who hadn't walked a few steps, pouted at the guards around him when he heard this, and suddenly Wang Hu, Li Qiu and others stepped forward to break through the crowd, and he strode over by himself, and followed the person is fist and kick.

How can a one-on-one student who has no power to tie a chicken be his opponent? After a few punches, he was knocked to the ground, and he covered his face and screamed.

Xu Hao smiled at him and said, "This is the end of the mouth." I don't want to talk to the two adults, what's the matter with you? If you dare to scold people behind your back, I will pull out all the teeth in your mouth, and I will come to scold me again when I am admitted to the show, and now you can't help me if you are beaten. ”

Students beat students, except for Xuezheng adults, even officials can't take care of it, and in the future generations, at most a few words of warning, so under the eyes of everyone who dared to be angry and dare not speak, Xu Hao and Mu Ang left in the car.

On the carriage, Mu Ang seemed to have discovered a new continent, and exclaimed excitedly: "It turns out that you are a gentleman, I have to go back and tell my sister." ”

Xu Hao raised his hand and gave Mu Ang a snap of his fingers, and said with a smile: "Aren't you a gentleman?" Playing around with the little guy all day long, bullying the children in the village, let's not talk about the boss. Besides, I told you a long time ago that I was also a well-known figure in the capital! I've beaten all the emperors and grandsons, and your sister already knows about them. Besides, what's so unusual about beating a student who spews blood? I went up and singled it out myself, that's not called a gentleman, that's called a gentleman, and let the family do it. ”

"It seems that this is the reason, Brother Xu, you were too old just now." The stupid Mu Ang was persuaded, blurted out the newly learned vocabulary, covered his reddened head, and looked adoring.

The shameless Xu Hao was proudly boasting about his past achievements at the moment, deliberately forgetting that every time he fought, he almost always bullied more and less. Even the time he said that he beat the emperor and grandson was because Zhu Gaochu deliberately bullied others, and the two of them blocked the emperor and grandson in the alley to extort benefits, but he kicked the emperor and grandson of others to show that he and Zhu Gaochu were brothers, and it was purely a villain act of aiding and abetting Zhu Gaoxu.

To have the opportunity to be a lawless gentleman, that is also one of Xu Hao's wishes, who wants to be a humble gentleman all day long? If you don't do some unscrupulous little bad things when you are young, isn't that a disease?

sent Mu Ang home first, and when they broke up, Xu Hao raised his fist to threaten and lure him, until he shocked Mu Ang and promised not to slander the hero Xu Hao in front of his sister, so he let him go.

The eldest sister and the younger sister lived in the Mu family endlessly, and yesterday Mrs. Mu said that she was reluctant to let go, but in fact, they played mahjong day and night together. For this reason, Xu Hao sighed deeply, fortunately Mu Ningxue doesn't like to play, otherwise, otherwise she wouldn't want her, she played mahjong and gambled money at a young age, and she would definitely be a loser in the future.

There is no way, Xu Hao sent someone to send his cousin Xiao Yushi and Xu Cuiliu and Xu Cuiyun both over, and the province is tired of a few, so I have to find someone to take over, right? And Xiao Yushi has been too lonely lately.

I don't want this move to arouse Mrs. Mu's high vigilance, a cousin who has lived in the Xu family for a long time is too suspicious, even if Xu Qinglian explains this, she can't make Mrs. Mu relieved, who made Xiao Yu Shisheng feel sorry for me?

Fortunately, Mrs. Mu felt that there was still enough time to observe slowly, so she did not make a noise. And after playing mahjong overnight, I found that Xiao Yushi's temperament was too soft and docile, and she took 10,000 steps back and said, even if she was unfortunately guessed, she was not enough to threaten her daughter's status as a wife. Of course, unless it is absolutely necessary, Xu Hao's kid must not be easily hugged left and right.

How does Xu Hao know that women love to think about these by nature? He and Mu Ningxue's family affairs haven't been wiped out yet, and Mrs. Mu has already begun to actively take precautions in advance.

It's really because Mrs. Mu's life is too lonely, and it seems that this mahjong has to let her play forever.

Xu Hao's feat of winning the first place spread throughout the village in an instant, and every family came to say goodbye, and then happily went home with a rich gift, and the Xu family suffered a big loss.

And Lao Taijun and Xiao don't care at all, what is money? The one who won the first place, not only has good academic performance, but also makes money, and he is really praised and boasted when he meets people, and he can't wait for the more people who come to congratulate him, the better.

Xiao sent a steward early to take people to Zhuangzi to bring back a few truckloads of fresh fruits, went to the city to buy more than 100 boxes of Suzhou dim se, and snatched back 50 horses of fine fabrics from Xu Hao's shop.

After Xu Hao learned about his grandmother and mother's feat, a few hundred taels of silver had already been tossed, so he pinched his nose and recognized it. After thinking about it, when the second brother Xu Ji came back after the show, he didn't know how much silver he would have to lose, and in order to satisfy the vanity of the elders, he hurriedly ordered the account office to prepare a thousand taels of silver for the elders to squander at that time.

Xu Hao is not short of money, a few days ago Yan Wang Zhu Di came to the news, agreed to Xu Hao's proposal to set up a business, and sent a confidant to take care of the business, the specific operation did not say, it is nothing more than the banner of a businessman to hide people's eyes.

In order to praise Xu Hao's suggestion, he promised that King Yan's Mansion would pay 100,000 taels of treasure money to buy Xu Hao's four shops.

At first, Xu Hao was a little reluctant, and the market price of 100,000 taels of treasure banknotes was only 50,000 taels of silver, which was too much of a loss. Later, Zhu Gaochi sent someone to inform him that the treasure banknotes would be exchanged for more than 80,000 taels of official silver, so that a shop could sell for a high price of 20,000 silver, and Xu Hao was satisfied.

Excluding the miscellaneous 'excesses and miscellaneous taxes', where can I put the full 80,000 taels of real money and silver? How dare you put it? Xu Hao thought hard about this for a night, and had no choice but to pinch his nose and admit it, and ran to ask Zhu Gaochi early this morning to help save the silver.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Gaochi smiled and drew a big circle on the ghost-like map, saying that you can take back 10,000 taels of silver first, and the rest of the past few years will still be useful. complained that don't look at the scenery of Yanwangfu on the surface, but in fact, there is a great lack of money. In this way, this large piece of land will be yours in the future, with the guarantee of my Yan Wangfu, and the land deed is guaranteed to be sent to you.

Xu Hao was angry, there is no good person who dares to love King Yan's father and son, and he will calculate himself in the morning, and his aunt can bear it. No, absolutely not.

The problem is that the silver is designated to be put into the mouth of the tiger, or it will not come back, so what should I do? Okay, we need the land, and you'll have to give me some manpower, right? Otherwise, I have to run to open up the wasteland by myself?

After such a bargaining, Zhu Gaochi finally promised to give Xu Hao a hereditary thousand households within three years on behalf of his father, that is to say, in the future, on his land, at least 500 households will be allocated to ensure the manpower of cultivated land, and there will be 800 strong men in the army.

Xu Hao was tempted, regardless of whether he had completely become an eagle dog under Zhu Di's claws, so he lightly clicked on the estuary on the map with a sad and angry face, and drew a small circle.

I don't want so much land, I just want a small piece of land here, okay to give me a good word?

Zhu Gaochi asked him inexplicably what he was going to do? Xu Hao naturally didn't say what was in his heart, and said angrily that I was afraid of death, the north was too restless, and I could escape by boat at any time while guarding the port.

Zhu Gaochi thought about it and smiled, and said meaningfully, your kid is planning to smuggle and sell goods to the Korean country, right? This is a violation of the king's law.

Xu Hao sneered, you understand so well, it can be seen that your Yanwang Mansion has done a lot of work, right? Otherwise, what will reward 100,000 elites?

Zhu Gaochi shook his head and said that this matter is very important, even my father and son dare not be blatant, the place you ordered is next to the port town of Beiping, how many officials and imperial historians are staring? It is simply impossible to satisfy you.

Xu Hao was right to think about it, although Tianjin Wei does not exist now, but the port is too important for Beiping, it is the only outlet to the sea in the fiefdom of King Yan, stationed heavy troops and a Daming naval division.

What does no ship take to sea? And the choice of shipyard in Tianjin seems to be too eye-catching.

Speaking of sea ships, Xu Hao is confident that Zhu Di will not refuse maritime trade, at least not now, otherwise there would not be seven voyages to the Western Ocean.

When the Yongle Emperor, China's shipbuilding jishu led the whole Shijie, when Zhu Yuanzhang nearly 20 years of forbidden sea, there can still be this miracle, it can be seen that the current Ming Dynasty is not short of shipbuilding craftsmen and talents.

Xu Hao regretfully pointed to the map, which was the location of Dalian in the later generations, and sighed that this place was the most Haode natural port in Liaodong. It guards the entire Bohai Sea, and is the closest and most convenient to the Korean sea route. If the Ming Navy Division can be stationed for a long time, the warships can be directly along the Korean ports to reach the Japanese State safely, and then while trading with the Japanese State, the Japanese government is ordered to cooperate with the Ming Navy Division to intercept pirates, as long as it can hold out for more than ten or twenty years, it is not difficult to completely eliminate the trouble of the Japanese invaders.

Zhu Gaochi was very moved when he heard this, and nodded his head frequently in admiration, but suddenly asked Why do you know these things?

Xu Hao said angrily that Lao Tzu came from the next generation, what don't you understand? Besides, if Xiucai doesn't go out and knows everything about the world, how can it be said in vain?

Regarding Xu Hao's claim to be from the afterlife or something, Zhu Gaochi's reaction was just a smile, and the ghost believed it!
