marquis of jingan

Chapter 31
Although Tian Boping is just a small person who hangs around in the market, he can barely be regarded as a local snake in Jiangdu, and he is quite trustworthy. After taking Shen Yi's money, he came to the gate of Ganquan Academy early the next morning.

The academy does not allow outsiders to come in and out, but the gatekeeper can pass it on for him. Not long after, Shen Yi, who was studying in his dormitory, came to the entrance of the academy.

After Shen Yi walked out of the gate of the academy, he first looked around and saw Tian Boping standing not far from the gate. He hurried up and smiled at Tian Boping: "Brother Tian, ​​there is news so early?"

Tian Laoba nodded, then carefully looked left and right, and asked, "Brother Shen, is there a convenient place to talk?"

Not far from the entrance of Ganquan Academy, there is a pavilion, which was built by the prefect Yamen after the seven sons of Ganquan became Jinshi. It is called Qizi Pavilion.

Shen Yi glanced at the Qizi Pavilion and saw that there was no one under the pavilion, so he walked towards the Qizi Pavilion.

"Brother Tian, ​​there is a pavilion where you can talk."

Tian Boping nodded again and again, followed behind Shen Yi, entered Qizi Pavilion and sat down. After sitting down, the local snake in Jiangdu took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Brother Shen, you asked my brother to inquire about the news. gone."

"Oh?"

Shen Yi smiled: "So fast?"

"Ham, there is nothing in Jiangdu Mansion that my brother doesn't know about!"

Tian Laoba coughed, and said in a low voice: "Brother, I wandered around Jiangdu all day yesterday, and I heard an official working in the prefect's yamen personally say that the imperial court did not want to forcibly confiscate Jiangdu's grain..."

"Isn't it food requisition?"

Shen Yi was a little surprised, and asked: "Then yesterday, my elder brother heard the news, and went to the food store to spend money to buy several hundred catties of grain and piled it up at home for later use."

"It's not grain requisition, it's buying grain..."

Tian Boping looked at Shen Yi, and said mysteriously: "Brother, I heard that the imperial court is going to fight, and the household department needs to raise some grain, so they sent an official to our Jiangdu to buy grain. The magistrate's yamen has to cooperate with the household department , That's why I invited those grain merchants to the magistrate's yamen, and wanted to buy grain from those grain merchants."

Shen Yi heard the words, looked at Tian Boping quietly, and asked: "Brother Tian, ​​is this news true?"

"Brother, you are looking down on old brother."

Tian Boping patted his chest and spoke very forcefully.

"Old brother is not sure about things, why did he come here to tell you?"

Speaking of this, Tian Boping looked up at Shen Yi, and asked, "By the way, Brother Shen, you are a student who is still studying in the academy, why do you suddenly care about grain prices? Why, do you have relatives who run grain businesses?"

"I don't have any relatives in Kailiang."

Shen Qilang chuckled, and secretly added something in his heart.

"There is one enemy in Kailiang."

Withdrawing his thoughts, Shen Yi looked at Tian Laoba, and said in a low voice: "Brother Tian, ​​the matter of Jiangdu grain prices is related to my Jiangdu people's livelihood. I am a scholar without a reputation, so I shouldn't inquire about these things. Mister is concerned about the people of Jiangdu..."

Having said that, Shen Yi didn't continue talking.

He knew that Tian Boping was well-informed, and with his intelligence capabilities, he should know who the dean of Ganquan Academy was.

"gentlemen…"

Tian Laoba was stunned for a moment, then looked at Shen Yi suddenly, and got up quickly.

"Brother... No, my lord, have you worshiped Master Lu as your teacher?"

Regarding this question, Shen Qilang laughed it off and did not respond.

Now he actually has a master-student relationship with Lu Anshi, but he doesn't have the name of a master-student, so it's okay to pretend to be a fake, but he can't blatantly pull the old master Lu's tiger skin, lest his thighs find out not happy.

But he is still a little scholar with no fame, it is really strange to care about Jiangdu's economy and people's livelihood, that's why he pulled Master Lu out.

And if he wants to make use of this matter, Master Lu is also a very important part.

"Congratulations, son."

Tian Boping is also a good person, and he has changed his address before he knew it. He smiled and cupped his hands at Shen Yi, and said: "It is my honor to work for you. You will be prosperous in the future, don't forget about today's work." Tian Laoba."

In this day and age, the master-student relationship is very strong.

Not only the master-apprentice between scholars, but also the master-apprentice inheritance between craftsmen, is also like a father and son, especially the teacher who teaches the industry, and there is no difference from the biological parents.

As for Mr. Lu, before he "retired", he was a fifth-rank official of Zheng'er Bajing, or a fifth-rank Beijing official. Although he returned to his hometown to teach after retirement, he did a good job as the dean of Ganquan Academy. With his connections, if Shen Yi One day I really entered his family and begged him to be a teacher. Not to mention, if I meet an official from the "Oasis Department" in the future scientific examinations, the difficulty of the examination will be reduced by at least [-]%.

If you are lucky enough to become an official and enter the officialdom, the benefits will be even greater. With a large group of seniors supporting you in the court, the difficulty of being an official will be reduced linearly.

The well-informed Tian Boping naturally knew the "gold content" of Master Lu's students, so he changed his attitude towards Shen Yi.

"Brother Tian was joking."

Shen Yi stood up and cupped his hands at Tian Boping: "Brother Tian is a know-it-all in Jiangdu city. In the future, I will have to rely on Brother Tian to take care of me when I do things in Jiangdu."

When Tian Boping heard this, his face was full of red light.

"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, I will definitely make things look good for you!"

Shen Yi coughed, and said, "Brother Tian, ​​Mr. Lu doesn't like publicity. When you go out to do errands, don't mention his name, otherwise he will find out and trouble you."

Tian Boping nodded vigorously, patted his chest hard, turned around and left.

Da Chen's scholar has a high status, and he is extremely proud to be "reused" by a scholarly scholar.

Mr. Shen was also very face-saving, and he took dozens of steps to send Tian Boping off, making this local snake in Jiangdu City walk faster.

After seeing off Tian Boping, Shen Yi turned his head and walked back to the Qizi Pavilion. He sat alone under the pavilion, looking up at the sky, a little lost in thought.

"The imperial court pays for grain, and it doesn't just buy grain from Jiangdu. That is to say, the grain merchants in Jiangdu will not be sold out at all. Even if they are sold out, the money given by the imperial court can be transferred from other places to buy grain. .”

"Even if the price of grain purchased by the imperial court is lower, these grain merchants will at most suffer a small loss, and some grain merchants with background may not lose money..."

"Even so, they are still unwilling to bear this part of the loss. They want to share this part of the loss on the heads of the people in Jiangdu and spread the news, so that the price of food in Jiangdu has more than tripled out of thin air."

Thinking of this, Shen Qilang sneered slightly in his heart.

"Greedy so much, it's really a death."

Shen Yi came back to his senses, got up from under the pavilion, silently looked towards the direction of Jiangdu City, and lowered his eyebrows slightly: "As the largest grain merchant in Jiangdu, the Ma family cannot be a simple businessman, there must be a bigger interest behind it Group, but compared to this interest group, it is hard to say how much weight the Ma family has."

After muttering something in a low voice, Shen Yi looked towards the back mountain of Ganquan Academy.

That's where Chen Qingheng died and where he was wrongfully imprisoned.

"Chen Qing, if you haven't gone far, then keep your eyes open..."
