In the second year of Shangyuan, early spring.

Jia Hong was sitting in the classroom, his white face was slightly fat, his thick eyebrows were frowning very seriously, listening to the teacher's lecture.

The gentleman's eyes turned, waved the book in his hand, and strengthened his tone, "Children are innocent, and the eyes of the world are innocent, and the mountains are mountains. Since he entered the mathology, all the courses are telling you that the mountains are not mountains..."

Zhang Lun, a classmate and friend, stood up the book and lowered his head slightly to the side, "Jia Hong, Qian Wuniang, you liked, said that she didn't like you, and she said that men and women should be moved first..."

Jia Hong's slightly fat face collapsed, "Fake it."

Aye said that the emotion between men and women originates from sex. What does a woman like for a man? First, appearance, second, temperament, third, money and power... But in many cases, money and power are the first.

Jia Hong felt that this was not right... According to Aye, men and women were all animals who forgot their righteousness when they saw profit. Aye smiled slightly at the time, seemed to have resisted complaints, and then rubbed the top of his head and said, "Erlang has grown up. You must know that money, power and temperament are the same... they are resources."

Jia Ping'an wanted to speak but stopped, but finally he held back a lot of things because Wei Wushuang came. Jia Hong took his leave and later heard his parents quarrel about the previous words.

"…It's true that a man is unbearable, but how could a woman be like this?"

"Men and women are the same." Jia Ping'an touched his short beard and said complacently: "Although I am almost a little confused, if I stand out, those girls will still flock to me. Why? Power and money!"

"What did you tell Erlang what he did?"

Wei Wushuang was helpless and felt that Jia Ping'an was becoming more and more out of touch.

Jia Ping'an pondered for a long time, "I want to tell the children that those who are affection should cherish it, but I want to tell them even more that all this is just exchange. Appearance, temperament, money and power, use these to exchange love... Appearance, temperament, and temperament can also last for a long time, but what is longer is love exchanged for money and power..."

Wei Wushuang said for a long time: "People seek profit."

"Yes." Jia Ping'an whispered: "Last time I took you to the grassland and saw the wolf king, why can the wolf king be like this? It's just because it's the most fierce. If it were the world, this would be the power of money..."

Outside the house, Jia Hong clenched his fists and muttered with his head raised: "The fifth lady is not waiting for someone!"

...

Not true!

Jia Hong shook his head firmly.

get out of class is over.

Because they are about to graduate, discipline is tighter.

The only fun is to go to the entrance of the school, where there are several shops selling some food and other miscellaneous items that students like, and the business is booming.

"Two pancakes!"

A group of students surrounded the small shop on the left. Qian Wuniang, who had fair skin and beautiful eyebrows and eyes, stood behind the counter, collecting money and looking at the back.

Look at me! Look at me!

Jia Hong is not tall, but not short either. He tried hard to tiptoe, just to let Qian Wuniang see her whole face clearly.

Qian Wuniang had a hint of joy and shyness in her eyes. Jia Hong was happy. Just as she was about to squeeze over, she found that her eyes seemed to be heading back.

He looked back at it...

Hua Dingyun, a noble son, nodded slightly with a reserved look, and he became more proud of being favored by the girl.

Jia Hong blinked.

He felt his head was empty and his body was a little weak.

The boy wanted to go out in depressed condition, but when he thought that he would be regarded as a loser, he forced himself to suppress the feeling that made him extremely frustrated.

He followed the crowd and Qian Wuniang raised her eyes slightly, looked over his head and asked, "What are you going to buy?"

Jia Hong, who was ignored, was stunned for a moment, and looked at the beef jerky he liked, but felt sour in his mouth. No, he felt sour in his heart.

But he still spoke, "Jerky."

Qian Wuniang lowered her eyes and said seriously: "Although the Tang Dynasty has raised a lot of cattle in the grassland now and has relaxed the restrictions on beef sales, the price of beef is still very expensive. You can change it."

The girl was worried that he would be fat when he was slapped in the face, so she lost all her private money in order to please her, so she kindly reminded her.

Jia Hong shook his head, "Take it."

Qian Wuniang snorted coldly, "Two liang."

Jia Hong gave the money mum and squeezed out of the crowd with a bag of oil paper.

He quietly returned to the classroom, sat on his desk, and slowly opened the oil paper bag.

Two liang of beef jerky sounds a lot, but in fact it is just two small pieces.

Jia Hong remembered that it was Aye's suggestion... After defeating the Great Food, the world was terrifying, and the name of the Tang Dynasty made the aliens bow their heads.

"Those alien races were afraid of the Tang Dynasty, so they moved one after another, and the rest were at a loss. Duke Zhao suggested feeding more beef cattle, and also suggested lifting the ban on beef cattle sales, so that we can eat beef openly. However, Jia Hong, this beef jerky is not cheap, so you won't spend this month?"

Zhang Lun touched him into the classroom, sniffed, and became a little greedy. Jia Hong threw a piece of jerky to him and said, "It's not going to be this month."

He has a lot of pocket money, but his parents are traveling outside the country at this moment, and no one cares about it. When he goes home, he will just say to his elder brother who is in charge of the Jia family.

The children of the Jia family cannot even be free from beef jerky, and they will be laughed at if they say it out.

Zhang Lun took a bite of the beef jerky and squinted his eyes and said, "It smells so good."

After the two of them ate beef jerky, Zhang Lun wiped his hands and asked, "The imperial examination is coming soon. Are you sure Jia Hong?"

No matter how good I study on weekdays, no one is sure of the imperial examination.

Jia Hong nodded with a firm look, "I will definitely pass the exam!"

He spoke a little louder, and the classmates came in and laughed when they heard it.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

They laughed unscrupulously.

Jia Hong was not angry either.

When he got home later, Jia Hong went to find Sister first.

Doudou frowned and looked at him, "Erlang, Auntie said that you are a rich and idle person. Our family is not short of money. Wouldn't it be better for you to live your life so freely?"

Doudou has grown completely, tall and has agile eyebrows. Now there is a saying in Chang'an City: Whoever can marry Jia Doudou is the best handsome man in Chang'an!

Jia Hong said stubbornly: "I won't be a rice insect!"

Dou Dou sighed and said melancholy: "But your personality is too pure. If Aye doesn't say it, he just worried that you are in a bad mood. He also wants you to be a rich and idle person. Besides, the aunt said that unless you can reach the seventh level before you are twenty-five years old, you will go home honestly as a rich and idle person."

The county magistrate of the upper-class county is the seventh rank. However, people who have passed the imperial examination have to polish for a long time, and those who are outstanding have the opportunity to become such county magistrates.

Jia Hong said seriously: "Sister, I have confidence."

Doudou rubbed his eyebrows, "I have confidence in you too."

The family, including classmates, were not optimistic about his imperial examination and career... Jia Hong was overjoyed, "Sister is so nice."

Dou Dou sighed: "I have confidence in you being a rich and idle person."

Jia Hong collapsed.

"The Lord is back."

Jia Yu is back.

Now that he is in the Zhan Shi Mansion, his position is not high, and he is just the chief clerk. It should be difficult to reach the seventh rank before the age of 25. Of course, this is not because the Jia family is incompetent, nor because Jia Yu is incompetent, but because the rhythm of the officialdom is like this. If you want to surpass the level, unless you are particularly outstanding.

Jia Yu's beard is sparse. For the sake of beauty, he cleans it up from time to time to maintain the image of a white-faced scholar.

"Is it not good to have rich and idle people in the imperial examination? " Jia Yu frowned slightly.

The whole family felt sorry for this pure Jia Erlang, worried that he would be cheated and deceived when he went out.

Jia Hong shook his head, "Aye said that people should have goals when they live, and my goal is to be a useful person!"

The boy was very determined and excited.

Brother A was very stubborn, Jia Yu smiled bitterly, "Then prepare."

My father said he was going to inspect schools in various places and took their mother to visit, but he disappeared. So Jia Yu suddenly became the head of the family and was very busy.

Doudou had to take care of his family's affairs, and it was not easy on weekdays. She said, "Brother, I'm going to go out tomorrow."

Jia Yu frowned, "It's just early spring and it's still cold, where are you going?"

Dou Dou said proudly: "Wang Qiang invites me to go to spring."

Jia Yu was full of black lines, "Just play when you play, what excuses should you make? Bring more people."

Jia Hong said: "Sister is the most reliable thing to do."

Erlang is indeed loyal!

Dou Dou raised his eyebrows, "Natural."

Jia Yu had a headache. He looked at Jia Hong, "Remember, you are a child of the Jia family. If anyone wants to bully you, be more decisive, ah!"

Doudou pursed his lips, "But Erlang did not reveal his identity outside."

Jia Yu said lightly: "Aye's reputation is too high, with many friends and many enemies. In addition, Aye does not want us to rely on our power, so Erlang and Sanlang are not allowed to report their own family, which is also a training."

Jia Dong, who had not said anything, said calmly: "The second brother is too kind, it's not good."

Jia Hong said dissatisfiedly: "Why is it not good?"
