Chapter 43 Studying? Apprenticeship?

Go to Jia’s house to look for someone?

In what capacity?

King Zhongshun is no better than Xu Yuanyi, the Xu family in Songjiang has three heirlooms: agriculture, astronomy, and mathematics.

As long as the Xu family firmly grasps one of these, they can always be a neutral faction in the government, and no one will touch them. Even if any generation of the Xu family suddenly gets crazy and goes to join the party and join the party, it will be nothing more afterwards.

After being demoted, he was brought back to Qintian Prison.

Although the official position of Qin Tian Supervisor is not high, his ability to observe the sky and determine the solar terms is not possessed by others.

Therefore, most of the official positions in Qintian Prison are hereditary.

The only exception in the Xu family was Xu Yuanyi, who was appointed by Emperor Taizong to study agriculture in the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Prince Zhongshun did not have much contact with the Jia family in the past, and the Jia family was even close to the Supreme Emperor and Prince Yi Zhong. I wonder if his rash visit would arouse any suspicion.

It's really not worth it for a little Qin Zhong.

Even if Qin Zhong had a way to double grain production, it would still not be worth his while.

"Go back!" King Zhongshun said politely. "There are still many things waiting to be asked by the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

King Zhongshun left.

Xu Yuanyi was hesitant while riding in the carriage. The new breeding method was too tempting for him. It felt like he thought he was invincible, but found out that there was a whole new world beyond his invincibility.

How can you not be curious!

He only waited until he entered Shenjing City and separated from King Zhongshun's carriage, and hurriedly called out: "Go to Rongguo Mansion!"



"The so-called self-cultivation is to rectify the mind. If the body is angry, it will not be rectified; if there is fear, it will not be rectified; if there is happiness, it will not..."

In the Jiajiayi School, all the young, old and young gathered together.

Jia Dairu sat upright in the hall to read.

Qin Zhong looked at the people around him who were shaking their heads. Most of them were just messing around like him.

I can't live this life!

The whole morning, just a few words went back and forth.

After reading it several times, Jia Dairu broke down its meaning word for word. At noon, he was still explaining the meaning again and again.

Everyone in Qin Zhong is going numb.

On the other hand, Jia Baoyu next to her might have come to the free school for the first time, and she was quite new to everything around her. Or maybe she thought Qin Zhonggao would look decent even if he took a look at it.

However, Xue Pan from behind was secretly looking at the children in the free school.

It turns out that the righteous school of the Jia family was originally established by the ancestors. If the descendants of the clan were poor and could not hire a teacher, they would enter this school to study. Anyone with an official title in the clan would be provided with silver and help according to the amount of their salary.

The fee for studying is to appoint senior and virtuous people as tutors to teach the students.

Obviously, Jia Dairu, the headmaster of the school, is indeed an old scholar. He only cares about explaining the words himself and does not care whether the students below understand them or not. He only asks the students to memorize by rote.

It turns out that the students in this school are all children of the same clan and some relatives.

But as the saying goes: "One dragon gives birth to nine kinds, and each kind is different." If there are too many people, there will be dragons and snakes mixed in, including despicable people. Not to mention that Xue Pan joined the free school, just like a jackal mixed with a sheep.

After looking around all morning, I have now secretly hooked up with someone.

Not all of the relatives of the Jia family were rich. Among them, the poor students saw Xue Pan's brilliance, and secretly hatched evil plans to eat away at Xue Pan's money.

It just makes Qin Zhong want to have good relations with the people around him, and it is difficult to even gain favorability.

Xue Pan, this shit stirrer!

Qin Zhong had no choice but to look around the corner secretly.

I can't get in touch with Jia Lan at other times, so I can only rely on free study time to improve Jia Lan's favorability.

"This kid, despite his young age, is really serious about reading."

"This is the legendary good son that both parents love!"

"It would be great if my son is so motivated in the future!"

Qin Zhong is in trouble now, but he fantasizes about having such a motivated and serious son.

Sure enough, people all have such bad roots. If they cannot do it themselves, they want future generations to do it.

Take advantage of the fact that the lesson is over and it’s time for lunch break.

Qin Zhong was thinking about how to strike up a conversation with Jia Lan, but Jia Rui called Qin Zhong out.

When they arrived at Jia Dairu's room, they saw Xu Yuanyi coming.

When Jia Dairu saw him coming, his eyes changed. "Jing Qing actually knows Master Xu!"

[Jia Dairu’s favorability +5, Yangshou increased by 5 days]

Why is Xu Yuanyi here?

What's going on with Jia Dairu's favorability?

Qin Zhong was confused, but because Jia Dairu was present, he had no choice but to salute Xu Yuanyi politely. "I have seen Mr. Xu, how come Mr. Xu is here?"

Xu Yuanyi glanced at Jia Dairu and said, "Brother Dairu, can I have a chat with my friend Jingqing alone?"

Little friend?

Jia Dairu's eyes were shocked, and he looked at Qin Zhong even more differently.

Although the Xu family did not have much contact with the Jia family, Jia Dairu and Xu Yuanyi were both talented scholars from the same college in Jiangnan Province. Later, Jia Dairu followed Rong Guofu from Jinling to Shenjing City.

However, Xu Yuanyi continued to pass the Eight-Gu Examination and was admitted to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Although the two of them had not interacted with each other in recent years, they also knew that Xu Yuanyi was the former minister of Hubu.

"What kind of student did I accept today?!"

Jia Dairu, who had been reading books about sages all his life, was breathing rapidly and said hurriedly: "I have something to do, Mr. Xu just wants to talk to Qing Jing."

[Jia Dairu’s favorability +5, Yangshou increased by 5 days]

It is gold and will shine wherever it is!

Qin Zhong sighed secretly and looked at the two of them alone in the room. He couldn't help but grinned and said, "Master Xu came here specially today. Could it be that he believed what I said?"

"There is still something I don't understand!" Xu Yuanyi took out the two pieces of paper given by Qin Zhong, "As shown in the picture, why are the stamens of corn on the branches, but the stamens of another flower in the picture are in the middle of the flower?"

"What a diversity of species!" Qin Zhong laughed, "The stamens of corn are used to spread pollen, so naturally they must be high up, and the pistils are corn silk. When a gust of wind comes, won't the essence of the stamens that are high above fall to the stamens?"

"But……"

"Hey! Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, I have already told you the principle, and I have given you the method of artificial pollination. When the spring comes, Mr. Xu can just experiment!" Qin Zhong naturally did not want to say much else.

But what Xu Yuanyi wanted to ask was something else.

"Last time Mr. Jing said that there is a more convenient and more productive method."

Now that Xu Yuanyi figured something out and believed what Qin Zhong said that day, he is now more concerned about the faster and better way.

Wouldn't it save a lot of time to test both methods at the same time?

Qin Zhong remained tight-lipped about this, shaking his head and asking: "Did I say that? Hiss... Now that I think about it, there is indeed such a method, but it's just not perfect yet. I have to think about it myself and test it."

Although Xu Yuanyi believed that he was lying, he followed his words and said, "Why don't you let me test it together?"

"It's so difficult!" Qin Zhong sighed.

However, Xu Yuanyi was so thirsty for knowledge that he actually raised his hand to him and said, "If you, Mr. Jing, are willing to teach me, I will definitely appoint you as an official. Even..."

"Even what?" Qin Zhong felt happy, wouldn't the opportunity for recommendation come now?

"I would like to worship you as my agricultural master!"

Fuck, my life is shortened.

The Xu family must be sick! Although Xu Weddingong also had many masters at that time, Xu Yuanyi was too shameless?!

Seeing Xu Yuanyi about to bow as a teacher, Qin Zhong almost jumped up in fright.

[Jialan’s favorability +5, Yangshou increased by 5 days]

[Jialan’s favorability +3, Yangshou increased by 3 days]

"Who's out there!"
