Chapter 7                          

Facing the county magistrate's smile and no smile, Zhou Mengchen's heart was confused, he glanced at Huang Zhubo's hope, and said in his heart: "Forget it."

He knew that if he offended the county magistrate today, he would probably not have a good life even after he succeeded to the post. It was just a yamen and a county magistrate who had been in power. The Zhou family had inherited more than ten generations in the position of Yin-Yang official, and it would be more than ten years for any Jiangxia magistrate. Especially now, the term of office of an official seems to be getting shorter and shorter. Generally speaking, it would be rare for a county magistrate to be able to serve one term for only three years.

Even if there are some difficult things, it will only take one or two years.

As the Yin-Yang official, they almost divorced the country. No, even if the imperial court was destroyed, they had long been guarding their old careers.

Even when the Ming and Qing Dynasties changed their dynasties, many officials in the Imperial Heaven Supervision continued to stay.

The same is true for Yin and Yang officials in various places, but the premise is that they do not die in the war.

This is a family business for generations.

As for what Feng Li said, Zhou Mengchen could only be polite. The first person who met, if he called his uncle one or two, he would really think that he was his uncle. If this is true, he would not know who was stupid.

Zhou Mengchen immediately bowed to the county emperor and said, "The subordinates will definitely live up to the high expectations of the county emperor and will not let down the reputation of their ancestors."

Feng Li was a little disappointed when he saw Zhou Mengchen like this, but he was expecting that he had someone collect Zhou Mengchen's manuscript paper. He took Zhou Mengchen's hand and left the county government office, so he found a restaurant and asked Zhou Mengchen to explain to him page by page. After explaining for a long time, he stopped.

It also made Zhou Mengchen breathe a long sigh.

What do you say?

As mentioned earlier, the peak of ancient Chinese mathematics was the Song and Yuan dynasties. To be more precise, it was after the Song Dynasty and when the influence of the Song Dynasty was exhausted. After all, the Yuan Dynasty was very short, and there were no influential mathematicians in the late Yuan Dynasty. However, after the Guo Shoujing Zijinshan School, there were few capable mathematicians.

And now even more so.

Feng Li is older, and He Duo has extremely stubborn ideas. He is also taller than Zhou Mengchen, so he cannot regard him as an ordinary student. When explaining, he should pay attention to methods and methods.

This gave Zhou Mengchen a headache.

It took Feng Li a while to figure out how to calculate it. He sighed and said, "So Qin Jiushao's algorithm is like this."

Zhou Mengchen was a little confused, and he asked, "Uncle Shi, what is Qin Jiushao?"

Feng Li said: "Qin Jiushao is a native of the Song Dynasty and specializes in mathematics. I have a book called "Nine Chapters of Mathematics". The data I give you. In fact, one of the questions in this book is to find the year of the year of the year of the year, but I just showed it to me. I can't even understand it. It seems that I am old and I will continue the unique skills of the past saints, so I will do it."

Then Feng Li called the shopkeeper and asked him to go to Feng's house to get the book, and gave it to Zhou Mengchen, saying, "I know the origin of my nephew's family's learning, and the future achievements will be determined to be above Qin Jiushao. It is just that the knowledge of the ancients is not lost in my hands."

Zhou Mengchen was grateful in his heart.

Because he knew that the meaning of books in this era was especially handwritten.

Although the publishing industry in the Song Dynasty was already very developed, many books were still not published, just like "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". The significance of this book to Chinese mathematics is equivalent to the significance of "The Origin of Geometry" to Western mathematics, but this book has only been published twice.

The first time was in the Northern Song Dynasty, the Imperial College was published as a textbook for the Imperial College. The second time was in the Southern Song Dynasty. Because of the Jingkang shame, all the books were lost. Only once was reprinted, and each time there was not many. In the Ming Dynasty, it was even rarer, only in the hands of some book collectors.

Qin Jiushao's works have no chance of publishing.

By the time Qin Jiushao's works were first published, it was already in modern times.

In ancient times, such manuscript books were not only the books themselves, but also the knowledge and inheritance.

Zhou Mengchen stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you, my deceased uncle."

Feng Li laughed and said, "Okay, it is a great blessing in life to get talent and educate them, but I can't teach you anymore. Letting you call me uncle so talented is also a great blessing in life. It's time to be revealed."

Zhou Mengchen raised his glass and said, "Since my uncle has such a good mood, my nephew should accompany you."

However, Zhou Mengchen and Feng Li were talking in the restaurant, and for a moment they seemed to be like their uncle and nephew. Wang Daozhi was restless in the county government.

It took a while before Master Liu came out of it.

Wang Daozhi immediately went up to him, grabbed Master Liu's sleeve, and said, "Master Liu, what do you mean by the county magistrate?"

Master Liu shook his sleeves and threw Wang Daozhi away, saying, "What do you say? What else can you say? You are doing this well, you are obviously not doing it yourself. But I blame the county master, are you having a problem in your head? Is there a possibility of refunding such money?"

Wang Daozhi's face turned red and he was very angry. In his opinion, this was originally a matter of the county magistrate's words. He would do some competitions. Even if he did any competitions, it was not Feng Li who agreed to recommend the Imperial Heaven Prison to Zhou Mengchen. He wouldn't he be able to go down the road. Instead, he finally regretted it.

Instead of helping him, he helped Zhou Mengchen instead.

And five hundred taels are not a small number.

A lot of this money was paid by his uncle. He could not make so much money by relying solely on the kingly way himself. Such money would be bought even in Beijing. In Wuchang, it is even more money that ordinary people cannot make in their lifetime.

The matter was not done, and it was even more unbroken.

Yes, Wang Daozhi also knew that it was difficult to get back such money, but when Wang Daozhi was young, his family was very poor, so he naturally understood how important money was, and he was unwilling to accept it.

Wang Daozhi gritted his teeth, and the blue veins burst out on his face, saying, "Sir Liu, you have made a promise before this. He said there is no problem. Now the matter has not been completed, and he will not refund the money. My family's money is not so easy to get. You have to think it through."

Master Liu snorted coldly and said, "Yaoyao, who are you scaring? Your uncle, that fake Taoist priest, went to other places to cheat, it would be fine, but he still did this in his hometown. Go to the streets of Wuchang City to ask, who doesn't know who Wang is? Why did he make some money now and dare to act arrogantly at the county government office?"

"This money can't be refunded at all. You think it through before you speak."

"It's not easy to wear this set of clothes. It's easy for my county magistrate to take off him."

One of the kings, the clothes of Zhu Zi, is the clothes of a scholar. It shows his identity as a scholar. Although the exemption of a scholar's identity not only requires the county magistrate to nod, but also requires notifying the academic government, the county magistrate is determined to do so, and it can be done.

If you don’t succeed, you will be more than enough to make trouble. This is what you mean by some corrupt officials.

Wang Daozhi also understood this and didn't say much. He just gritted his back teeth and said, "Okay, OK, OK."

Then he made great strides and left.

Obviously, the remnant was not extinguished.

But Master Liu doesn't care much.

If it weren't for the Wang family, he still had some background, Master Liu felt that he would not let Wang Daozhi go out of the county yard so simply. He really thought that the yamen headed south and did not come in without money. It was fake.

Master Liu tidied up his clothes and then returned to the backyard.

But I saw Lord Jun lying on a spring chair, with three little girls of sixteen or seventeen years old beside me. They all had beautiful faces, tenderness and tenderness, and were covered with collagen and pink, and they were free from rouge. One massaged his shoulders behind him, and the other two gently tapped his calves on both sides.

After Master Liu came in, he whispered: "Master."

County Zun Mung Bean's eyes emerged from under her eyelids and said, "I've been sent."

Master Liu said, "It's been sent."

The county master glanced at Master Liu, hid his eyes under his eyelids, and said, "What did you say?"

Master Liu said, "I didn't say anything, but I said something, and it was difficult to get the money from the Wang family."

The county magistrate snorted coldly and said, "I always do things fairly. I paid money with one hand and did things with the other. In the classroom, I said five times to him. Five hundred taels were spent early. Did I ask me to help him do it for nothing? It's because he didn't use enough money."

Master Liu said: "Yes, or is it that young people are ignorant. If his uncle was here, he wouldn't have done this."

"Yes." The county master enjoyed the massage and said, "Young people are ignorant, but there is one person who is even more ignorant than him." The county master suddenly opened his eyes.

Master Liu paused in his heart and said, "County Master, who is Zhou Mengchen?"

The county lord said, "Yes, it's him who is ignorant of politeness. I won't talk about the things he did, just treat him as young and ignorant, but now that he has taken office, he doesn't know any politeness. How can he take me seriously?"

Hearing this sentence, it seems that Zhou Mengchen's position was made by the county master.

Master Liu also understood that the county master did not care about politeness or impoliteness. He only cared about things that represent politeness. For example, if the gift was a yellow and white thing, it would be better. Of course, antique calligraphy and painting, land and houses, the county master did not care about himself and would not refuse anyone.

But if you don’t come, it’s yours.

In particular, Zhou Mengchen had offended the county magistrate before and should give him more gifts, express his apology and repair his relationship. This is what a sensible person needs to do.

In this way, the county master will forgive you magnanimously. It just has nothing. What does it mean?

Master Liu's eyes rolled and said, "County Master, how much color do you want to give him?"

The county lord was hesitant and said, "It's not great, the strong dragon will not defeat the local snake. Now Feng Li seems to be extraordinary to him." The county lord was not afraid of Feng Li, but the county lord has always been a businessman and does not do business that loses money.

Master Liu couldn't understand the thoughts of the county magistrate. He thought for a moment and said, "I have a main person, so, so, so."
