Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 365 Plan
"If I say no, I won't. Why do you old women have such long hair, long hair, and short knowledge?" Zhang Guangyi glared at his wife, "In the past two years, do you see if Mrs. Chen and those three sisters have returned to Peach Blossom Village? Brother Ning It's not that I have no choice but to go back to Peach Blossom Village. Why? I don't want to see Du Chensheng's old couple and Yao's mother and son! They can allow Ling sister and her son to marry back, and let Du Chensheng and Yao's take care of it. The airs of the elders are talking to Sister Ling? If we don't mention this marriage, Brother Ning can take care of our brother Wen; if this marriage is mentioned, maybe he won't bother to talk to us."

"That's not necessarily the case. Maybe he agreed? Look at what kind of family he promised his third sister? Don't you always say that Brother Ning is not a treasure? If Zhang Hongwen became his brother-in-law, he would still Can you help our Brother Wen? It doesn’t matter if Sister Ling is engaged now, isn’t there still Sister Hui? This Sister Hui is submissive and better than Sister Ling. It’s okay for our Brother Wen to get married two or three years later. It doesn't matter, why don't you ask someone to mention it and order Sister Hui to Brother Wen?"

Zhang Guangyi sat there without speaking for a long time.

It would be a lie to say that he was not moved, but he always felt that Du Jinning looked down on his family Zhang Hongwen.Du Jinning took care of Zhang's family and Zhang Hongwen, all because of the kindness Zhang's family and Zhang Hongwen treated her back then.

He raised his head and looked at Zhang Hongwen: "This is your marriage, what do you think?"

Zhang Hongwen looked down at the ground and shook his head: "No need to go, I'm not worthy."

"Why?" His mother became anxious when she heard that, "What's wrong with his family? Even if you're not as good as Brother Ning in school, you're better than the kid who is engaged to Sister Ling, right?"

Zhang Hongwen raised his head and shook his head: "I have been in contact with Lu Xiaobei, I know he is a very smart and capable person, and he is very loyal. Du Jinning values ​​this. Mother, you have not contacted them , may not know. Du Jinning never felt inferior to Young Master Qi and Young Master Guan. Because he felt that with his own ability, he could earn money, status and so on. The difference was only a matter of time. Compared with In terms of money and status, Du Jinning pays more attention to ability. I can tell that he especially admires Lu Xiaobei."

"You are not bad." A mother always thinks best of her son.

Zhang Hongwen gave a wry smile and shook his head: "Not so, not so far."

To be honest, Qi Muyuan and Du Jinning were successively admitted to the county and prefectural case chiefs. Although Guan Jiaze did not get the case chief, his rankings in both the county and prefectural examinations were quite high, which greatly stimulated Zhang Hongwen.Thinking that he didn't even have the chance to take the county examination, if it wasn't for Du Jinning's help, he might still be in class B now, and he felt that the gap between them was too great.In front of the three of them, he became more and more silent, because he could no longer understand what the three of them said about their homework.

Although Lu Xiaobei had never studied and had no chance to study in a school, Zhang Hongwen was amazed by his fast recognition of characters and his strong ability to learn things.In Lu Xiaobei, he could vaguely see Du Jinning's shadow, the same intelligence, the same self-confidence, and the same diligence.Others can't understand why Du Jinning betrothed his sister to Lu Xiaobei, who is poor, fatherless and motherless, but Zhang Hongwen can understand.

Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups, that's all.

He believes that as long as there is an opportunity, with time, Lu Xiaobei can also become a famous figure.

Zhang Hongwen was so optimistic about Lu Xiaobei, but after hearing all kinds of gossip, Lu Xiaobei couldn't sit still at home, so he went directly to Zhuang Yue.

"Uncle Zhuang, I want to go out and make a fortune, make a career, and come back to marry the third girl."

"As soon as I heard about this marriage, I knew you would not be able to sit still." Zhuang Yue laughed.

He suppressed his smile, looked at Lu Xiaobei, and his expression became serious: "Have you thought about what you are going to do? Young Master Du is here to hire people. If you leave everything like this and go out, what will you do with Young Master Du?" ?”

"I've thought about it." Lu Xiaobei is naturally not a reckless person. Since he came to Zhuang Yue, he had his own ideas, "I have saved some money since I followed the young master; Wang Lusheng and Zhang Gou'er I can also borrow some tea there. I want to buy some tea leaves from the young master’s tea garden, sell them in the capital, and then bring back the specialties of the capital. Someone from the Qi family and the Yuan family went to the capital, so I just need to go with them. Safety is not a problem. When I arrive in the capital, I don't need the Qi and Yuan family's sales channels, but find a way by myself. If I can find a way, it will be good for the young master. After all, it is not a problem that our tea sales channels are in the hands of others .It’s good that Mr. Qi and Mr. Yuan are taking care of it now. If the tea gardens of Qi and Yuan’s family are changed by others, we will have to be controlled by others.”

"As for the young master, he will stay at home and study hard for the next three or four months to prepare for the autumn college exam. He doesn't go out, so naturally he doesn't need someone to run errands. If there is anything to do, just ask Wang Fu to come. I stay at home around It's all right, why don't you go to the capital to find a way out. When autumn comes, I will stay here and not go out, and accompany the young master to participate in the courtyard examination."

Seeing that Lu Xiaobei had a plan in mind, Zhuang Yue nodded appreciatively: "Okay, I think it's good. You go talk to Young Master Du, he will definitely agree."

"After making money, I want to buy a big house and hundreds of acres of land, and let those people see if I, Lu Xiaobei, are as incompetent as them." Lu Xiaobei said with high spirits.

Zhuang Yue patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, I'll wait to drink your wedding wine." After thinking for a while, he said again, "If you don't have enough money, you can get it from me. I have been a shopkeeper for many years, and I have some money on hand." Savings, I can lend you."

Lu Xiaobei stood up and bowed gratefully to Zhuang Yue: "Thank you, Uncle Zhuang. If Uncle Zhuang is willing, you can use the money to invest in shares; if you don't want to take risks, I will borrow it from you. I will do it later. By the way, it won't be too late for Uncle Zhuang to invest again."

"Let's invest this time." Zhuang Yue said.

Although the money was his savings, part was saved for his son's marriage and part was his retirement money, but he believed in Lu Xiaobei's ability.Lu Xiaobei will definitely make a lot of money on this trip.Don't buy shares at this time, and wait for Lu Xiaobei to make money before buying shares. Not to mention that he is embarrassed, even Lu Xiaobei will look down on him.Maybe I won't say anything this time, and if there is any good way to make money in the future, I will definitely not ask myself to do it together again.Only now is a good time to invest in shares, share risks and make profits together.

Having been a shopkeeper for so many years, Zhuang Yue is not so ignorant of this bit of human sophistication.
