Jinyi champion

Chapter 85 The Realm of Thick Skin
Gongsunyi went to the banquet, and did not go to the west courtyard for dinner with Zhu Hao and Jinghong.

In the afternoon, Gongsun Yi didn't show up at the academy, and Zhu San sneered there: "It is estimated that Mr. Gongsun will be sent out of the palace, so we have to replace him with a new Mr.?"

Zhu Si asked, "Third brother, did your father say anything to you?"

Zhu San shook his head: "It's not about what other people say, but about using your brain. Of course you don't have a brain, and you can't explain it clearly to you. You should learn from Zhu Hao. Even if he doesn't have a very bright mind, he doesn't speak, so that others will I don't know he's out of his mind."

A whole room of children looked at Zhu San with weird eyes.

Zhu Si pouted: "I don't know who gave you the courage."

"Why, I have the most brains here, are you not convinced?"

Zhu San was still arguing there, fighting with Zhu Si.

Anyway, there was no Mr. Zhu in class, and Zhu Hao didn't deliberately play the role of Mr. Zhu. Now it was time for self-study class, and the children were free-range.

Just then there were footsteps outside.

Several children shook their heads at the same time, muttering words, pretending to be good students, and it was just an ordinary guard who didn't want to enter the house.

Probably the guards were afraid that Zhu Si would stay in the school for a long time, and no one would know what happened, so they came in from time to time to check.

When Zhu San found out that it was just an irrelevant passer-by probing outside, he immediately glared at him viciously, and said in a threatening tone: "What are you looking at? It will affect my son's study, can you bear it? Get out!"

The guard left in desperation.

After that, the children were bored to do what they were doing.

……

……

"Zhu Hao, do you think Mr. Gongsun will really be expelled from the palace? Are we going to have a new Mr.?"

When eating in the evening, Jinghong didn't see Gongsunyi, so he couldn't help asking.

Zhu Hao didn't want to answer.

Whether Gongsunyi should leave or not was originally the decision of the palace. He guessed that it didn't make much sense. Maybe the child would be interested in who would be his teacher, but he was different.

Relatively speaking, Gongsun Yi is already a teacher who can satisfy Zhu Hao.

Young teachers are not pedantic, can accept new things, and don't have excessively demanding requirements on children, so they are easier to get along with.

"Maybe. Didn't Shizi tell you all? She should be very well informed."

Zhu Hao said this on his lips, but he knew in his heart that Gongsun Yi could not be replaced for the time being.

If the palace really wanted to change Gongsun's clothes, it would be impossible to invite him to a banquet or something. Wouldn't it be better to just send him something to go home and wait for work?

There are too many restrictions on the selection of teachers in the Wangfu, mainly because Zhu Houcong is now the target of public criticism, a royal family member who is equivalent to the prince, but does not have the status and guard level that the prince should have, so the Wangfu is such a close person, can the Wangfu replace it casually?It will definitely take a long time to investigate.

Gongsun Yi can stand out among many candidates because he has a simple background. The palace chooses a teacher with an innocent family background to come to the palace to support him first, and then gradually selects a formal teacher.

According to Zhu Hao's estimate, the possibility of substitutions before the end of the year is unlikely.

……

……

In the morning of the next day, Gongsun Yi really appeared in class again, smiling like before.

Zhu San asked curiously: "Sir, why didn't you come yesterday afternoon?"

Gongsun Yi looked ashamed: "Yesterday, it was a great honor for me to drink at the invitation of Yuan Changshi in the royal residence. Master Yuan appreciates it so much, so I drank a few more cups, and I was a little drunk when the banquet was over. , Master Yuan sent someone to send them back home, and told them to come and teach some of them today."

Zhu San was very unhappy when he heard this.

Yesterday, I boasted that I had brains, and analyzed that Gongsunyi would definitely be cut off, but today I was slapped in the face by reality. When my girl is thick-skinned?
Of course there are opinions!
Zhu San was indignant: "Then why don't you rest at home for an extra day? This way we can also take the opportunity to rest for a few days!"

Gongsun Yi asked puzzledly: "What does this mean?"

Seeing his sister's angry look, Zhu Si knew that her sister was sulking and sulking on purpose, so he was very relieved and said with a smirk: "She means that our palace has a five-day break for classes. If the husband doesn't come today, he won't come tomorrow." Don’t come, you can come back to class the day after tomorrow.”

Gongsun Yi suddenly realized that the son meant this!She is thoughtful and considerate, and she really is considerate of Mr. But I am here, so I can't ask for leave to go home now, can I?

Zhu Hao asked: "Mr. Gongsun did not encounter any special things at the banquet yesterday?"

"Uh?"

Gongsunyi looked at Zhu Hao in astonishment.

When he noticed the secretive expression on Zhu Hao's face, he suddenly thought of something, and his face was a little ashamed.

Gongsun Yi is not a person who can hide secrets, so he sighed immediately: "At the banquet yesterday, my teacher told Master Yuan many times that I am not qualified for the job of teaching in the palace, and I hope that Master Yuan can hire someone else, but Master Yuan treated me It’s really shameless to face it with high expectations.”

Zhu San murmured in a low voice: "Finally, I have self-knowledge, but since you're all shameless, why don't you leave earlier?"

"However, since I stayed as a teacher, I will still be your teacher for the time being. I will continue to teach you, and you must redouble your efforts...Okay, take out "Mencius", and then...Zhu Hao, you come up and talk!"

Friends present: "..."

Gongsunyi looked sly: "Zhu Hao, tell me more, let me know how Master Tang preaches and teach. I will learn more so that I can teach you better."

Zhu Hao thought to himself, Gongsun Fengyuan, your face is really like a city wall, do you recognize teachers everywhere?First there was Master Yuan, and then there was Master Tang. Now that I am teaching, am I also your teacher?Am I sir or are you sir?
Zhu San booed: "Someone, hurry up and give lectures, students who give lectures to Mr. are really rare."

If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely feel ashamed after hearing this, but Gongsunyi is not an ordinary person. He thought that he had a flexible mind and thought of a good way to teach others to learn while learning... So he is completely immune to Zhu San's ridicule.

Zhu Hao couldn't bear Gongsunyi's invitation, so he had to go to the podium again to teach a few children.

This time Gongsun Yi also became his student.

……

……

Go home in the evening on the fourth day.

After the palace changed the rules, it is no longer necessary to return early on the day of rest and holidays, but one night earlier, and school will end in the afternoon earlier than usual.

After Zhu Hao came out, he went to the bookstore first.

I don't know if I don't go...

When I arrived, I found that the bookstore had developed into a contiguous bookstore. Some people rented the surrounding open space, and the bookstore was connected to form a competition.

When there are too many people, the scene becomes chaotic.

The ownership of this open space is unknown, and some people maliciously speak loudly at other people's bookstores, which makes the experience of the listeners plummet.

"Brother Hao, I finally saw you. You haven't come these two days. I don't know where... so many storytellers have come out recently, with noisy voices. I don't know who to listen to. I could earn a dollar a day." Two taels of silver, now you can’t even earn three taels of silver.”

Yu San ran to Zhu Hao to complain.

Zhu Hao comforted: "Three qian per day, nine taels of silver a month, and more than two taels in your hands, isn't that enough?"

Yu San looked at Zhu Hao in surprise.

In his opinion, the biggest victim of this business vicious competition should be Zhu Hao, the behind-the-scenes owner of the bookstore. Why does Zhu Hao seem so relaxed and doesn't care about making money and losing money at all?

"Brother Hao, are you... all right?"

Yu San asked puzzledly.

Zhu Hao didn't answer. His purpose of opening the bookstore was not to make money. Compared with the income from drying salt, this amount of money was not enough for him to fill his teeth. He mainly wanted to add a little fun to his boring life. There is a place to go, but is it really interesting to listen to other people's books written by themselves?
Or can he do something earth-shattering after making money?
Now enriching the cultural and entertainment life of the people in the city, and turning this open space into an entertainment street in Anluzhou City, Zhu Hao feels that he has a great sense of accomplishment.

After a long while, Zhu Haocai said: "It is better to change the plan quickly. Since our previous plan to hire storytellers from all over the city to be storytellers for us failed, we can only change course. Brother San, do you think that the business of storytelling, if you want to make money, will last for a long time?" Development, what is the most important thing?"

"This……"

Yu San does not have a flexible business mind, and only likes to do things step by step, lacking subjective initiative.

Zhu Hao said: "Of course it is your book that wants to attract more people. Just relying on following the trend to make trouble is not a long-term solution... When you publish a new novel, loyal audience will still come to listen to it, and the profit will still be the same Many, even because of the agglomeration effect, not only Anlu locals, but even people from outside will come to listen to the books, and the business will be better.

"At this time, we should practice our internal skills hard, first widen and level the venue, upgrade the stage, and set up four large water tanks on both sides to achieve the effect of sound amplification. Build a fence to form a barrier from other bookstores, and then build on both sides Set up a private room in the attic...Let’s do this first, it’s really lively.”

Zhu Hao didn't care at all, he was ready to go home with a smile on his face.

"By the way, little third brother, sort out the money I earned, save half of it for the expansion and repair of the bookstore, and give the other half to me. I will use this money to make another investment. Don't worry, you still have the shares. This time, we will take the high-end route..."

……

……

After Zhu Hao returned home, he saw his grandmother Zhu Jiashi directly.

But Zhu Jia looked forward and backward, with a neurotic look, as if he came alone this time, without taking anyone with him, and only after asking Zhu Niang did he know that Zhu Jia had actually moved in the day before.

"Mother, grandma didn't ask about the maid, did she?" Zhu Hao asked.

Zhu Niang looked a little worried: "Your grandmother didn't ask, but she has already met Xiaobai... Sigh, knowing that we can afford a maid, I wonder if we will increase the salary."

Zhu Hao shook his head: "Probably not."

Then Zhu Hao and Zhu Jiashi entered the main room, and after the doors and windows were closed, Zhu Hao began to report routinely.

"... On the second day of junior high school, you went to the riverside together? Your Majesty will go with you?" Zhu Jiashi's face was stern.

Zhu Hao nodded: "Yes."

Zhu Jia frowned: "You are in the palace, can't you usually spread the news?"

This is the key point.

Now that Zhu Hao has been able to escape from the palace smoothly, it seems that he has gained some freedom, but if the Zhu family finds out, they will make full use of this point and contact Zhu Hao at night, it will be effective at critical moments.

But the palace has long been concerned about this, and every time he comes out, he is accompanied by Lu Song.

"I don't know what grandma means?"

Zhu Hao couldn't answer directly, he wanted to test how much the old lady knew at the moment.

Zhu Jia obviously didn't know about his grandson's situation in the palace, so he shook his head and sighed: "I asked you to see Jin Yiwei's internal line in the palace, but I heard that it was found out by the people in the palace, and he was transferred to another place...I'm afraid you will be alone in the future In the palace, if something happens, you have to adapt accordingly."

As soon as Zhu Hao heard it, he knew that Lin Baihu had concealed it from the Zhu family, so he immediately pretended to be respectful: "Grandson, please remember."
