Chapter 61: I want to make money, the enemy's road is narrow

When I arrived at Nanyang Prefecture, I went straight to Nanyang College and handled the matters of going to school with the documentary certificate.

As a prefecture, Nanyang College has a long history and enjoys a reputation in the prefecture. The college is covered with ancient trees, and the buildings are simple and elegant, with a very humanistic style. Sometimes students may come and go, and they all wear Confucian robes and scarves on their heads, and look graceful.

Chen Sanlang went to school as an increase in student status, and his welfare benefits were naturally one level lower than those of the student entitled, but he didn't have to pay tuition fees and also included accommodation. Three meals a day can be solved in the college canteen.

There is a set of strict etiquette for entering school, which is something that every student must perform when entering school, crossing the pool, worshiping sages, writing personal offerings - that is, registration forms, etc. Step by step, meticulous.

After the ceremony, I received a wooden sign representing my identity. According to the instructions of the deacon of the college, I found the school. It was indeed a large room with several people, and the conditions were simple.

Outside the school hall, a couplet of admonitions was hung: There are great men from poor families, and handsome talents come from humble rooms.

Judging from the handwriting, it is mostly written by students living in the school, so as to encourage themselves.

There were many people in the school, but Chen Sanlang couldn't take Xu with him. He applied for living outside and carried his luggage to find a place near the college.

There are many homes for rent around the college. After seeing a few places, I felt that it was pretty good, especially a house with two in and two out, with a courtyard and a mulberry tree at the door, which is as tall as a cover, which is quite consistent with the explanations in Feng Shui classics. This is called "wealth and honor umbrella".

The good place is empty, but because the landlord asks for too high a price, it is determined that it costs three or five hundred cents a month, which can be regarded as a sky-high price.

Xu? I like this house very much, especially the courtyard, which is spacious enough to practice martial arts and perform my skills every day.

"Just rent this one."

Chen Sanlang said.

Xu? said hurriedly: "It's better to change another place, it's too expensive."

Chen Sanlang pondered for a moment: "Although it is expensive, the place is really good and is close to the college, so it's settled."

I discussed with the landlord and signed a one-year lease and paid three months of rent in advance.

The landlord smiled and took the lease to the yamen to file and stamp it. He had his own way and did things very well. He took the contract back in half an hour, and both parties held a copy.

Moving your luggage in, Xu? started to sort out and cleanly. Chen Sanlang asked for help, but she pushed it away: "You don't need to do it. When someone saw it, I thought I would bully you."

Chen Sanlang couldn't help but think of the crab in the book, and immediately let it come out and turn it into a human body: "Chaihe, the important task of guarding the house and protecting the hospital in the future will be given to you. If there is an accident, you will only ask."

"Affect the order."

After these days of ideological struggle, the crab has accepted his fate and has a respectful attitude.

Xu? I had heard Chen Sanlang talk about Caihe, but now I saw him turning into a human body and clumsyly clearing out the miscellaneous things in the courtyard. I felt novel: using demons as servants is rare in the secular world. It is not uncommon in the circle of monks. It is common to subdue demons, serve as servants as slaves, and even mounts.

When Chihe saw Xu?, he respectfully called "Young Madam" and muttered to himself: Our family is now the little princess. The young master stepped on two boats. I have to find a way to report it to the little princess...

This guy is actually thinking about making a report.

Of course, Chen Sanlang didn't expect this guy to be so polite and didn't have time to pay attention, but he was having a headache about making a living.

This time, I came to Nanyang Prefecture to study, and the total amount was more than 30 taels, not much.

Now that I have rented a house and paid the three-month rent in advance, I spent more than ten taels at once. With some other bits of expenses, I spent almost half of the money. It’s really like climbing a mountain, and spending money is like flowing water.

The future is long and there are more places to spend money. If you have your own hands and feet, how can you ask your mother to get the money?

I remember that he agreed at the beginning. One thing was to buy land in Jingxian so that his mother could live a comfortable and stable life; the other thing was to help Uncle Hua get a wife; both things were to use money.

"I want to make money!"

Chen Sanlang almost opened his throat and finally held back, stood in the yard, falling into deep thought.

Over there, clean the house, fold the bed, go out to buy vegetables, and come back with the basket to cook soon.

Firewood is burning, oil and salt are put into the pot, and the aroma is swelling.

When the crabs smelled, they were so greedy that they were about to flow out. In the past, they ate raw food, whether it was animal meat, fish meat, or human meat, and they all ate raw food in large mouthfuls, and it was rare to eat cooked food. Now that he smelled the fragrance, he realized the charm of the fireworks on earth.

When the food is served, I can hardly help but pounce on it.

But there is a difference between master and servant, so you can't be rash. Chen Sanlang smiled and asked Xu to give one serving of both of them, and let the crabs and eat them on the small table on the side.

Crab and He Xuren are also, these foods seem to be quite large, but for his appetite, they are not enough, so they don’t have to sit down, hold them in their hands, and have three or five mouthfuls, and a whisper of wind blows away the clouds, licking the plate clean, and then staring at him pitifully again with a pair of small eyes.

Yes, the family has this foodie, and they have to go poor even if they eat.

Chen Sanlang's idea of ​​making money is even stronger.

He ate a lot, but he didn't care about the accommodation conditions at all. There was a custard room in the courtyard, so he lived there. He placed a wooden bed and lay on the bed. Soon, a whirring snoring sound came out. Chen Sanlang asked him to guard the house, but this guy thought that the young master was a monk and the young lady could also be called a martial arts master. Who wouldn't dare to come to his house to make trouble?

There are two wing rooms in the inner courtyard, one on the left and one on the right, just opposite each other. Chen Sanlang is on the left and Xu is on the right. They have not officially got married and cannot have a bridal chamber.

Chen Sanlang was in the room and said that he was not restless in his heart, which was completely self-deception. When he began to meditate and observe the "Haoran Silk Book" in his mind, his heart gradually became as quiet as water, like the bright moon in the sky, and was empty, without any random thoughts.

On the table on the bedside table, a red sandalwood sword box was displayed, with a sword in it, lying there quietly, waiting for it to move.

The day just passed like this.

I got up the next day, finished washing up, finished breakfast, gave me some words, and recited the book? Come to the college - Since I have officially entered school, I should go to the classroom to listen.

According to the classics, history, and collections of classics, Nanyang College has divided the various subjects in detail, as well as specialized classes such as poetry, songs and essays, and all have experienced old scholars. There is a specified time for each class, and students may not come to class, but if they want to come, they must be on time. If they are late, they cannot enter the classroom again.

Overall, the course arrangement can be said to be quite relaxed. On average, there are only two classes a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and each class lasts half an hour. As for the time outside the classroom, students can move freely. It should be noted that although there are some orders of students entering the school period, the college does not adopt the academic level system, but all students are mixed together to attend classes to facilitate communication and management.

In fact, there are only one or two hundred people studying at Nanyang College.

In this time and space, reading books is a luxury, and ordinary people are generally illiterate. Many scholars are stuck in the third level of the boy exam, and cannot get the scholar's fame and fortune, and cannot enter the school; some people have the qualifications to enter the school, but choose to stay at home for one reason or another; there are also a large number of older scholars who have no hope of taking the imperial examination and will no longer waste their time and money in the college.

So one or two hundred students are considered too many for the college. There were no enrolled student regulations in the past, and at most dozens of students entered the school.

The class this morning was unpopular and was a "fu", so the students who went to class were sparse.

As soon as Chen Sanlang entered the classroom, he heard someone talking loudly inside. His voice sounded familiar. Looking at it, wasn’t it Qin Yushu?

Qin Yushu also saw Chen Sanlang coming in, and his face suddenly became cold.
