When he heard this number just now, he actually didn't care at all and just thought it was a child's random talk.
But after he also calculated the results, he looked squarely at the little kid in front of him. He looked like an ordinary child in appearance and dress. He couldn't read a lot of Chinese characters. How could he be so good at arithmetic?
Could it be that you are afraid of being deceived and have asked many people before?
"So... right?" Chen Ping touched his nose and giggled.
Chen Duohai looked at Dr. Zheng's reaction and knew that his son was really right. He was also stunned on the spot. It was amazing that his son could figure out the threshold of such complicated calculations.
"Not bad, not bad, you are very talented!" Dr. Zheng looked at Chen Ping who was giggling, and he had already made up his mind.
"Let's do this. In the future, there will be such herbs, and they can all be bought, and the price will be the same!"
"Then it's settled!" Chen Ping nodded repeatedly and pulled his father who had not yet come to his senses.
Chen Duohai, who had regained consciousness, quickly smiled apologetically: "Thank you, Doctor Zheng!"
After saying that, he took the copper coins sent by the clerk and prepared to take his son away.
I got a big deal today and made so much money. At this moment, Dr. Zheng behind me suddenly caught up with him, still with a smile on his face.
"Brother, please stay!"
"Is there anything else, Doctor Zheng?" Chen Duohai stopped, instinctively tightened the money in his arms, and stared at Doctor Zheng with a vigilant face.
After finally making some money, the other party won’t regret it, right?
"Brother, I see you are a very smart kid. Today happens to be the day when Huating Academy enrolls students. If you have time, you can go and have a look!"
Looking at the enthusiastic Dr. Zheng, Chen Duohai was filled with gratitude.
"Thank you very much, I'll note it down!"
Doctor Zheng stood in front of the drug store, looked at the hurried backs of the two men, smiled and turned around to go in.
After leaving the drug store, Chen Duohai pulled Chen Ping and quickly came to a corner with few people, and swallowed hard.
"Tell me, did you calculate those numbers in advance?" This honest man didn't even care about whether there would be sources of herbal medicine that could make money later.
For him, his son's future is more important than anything else.
"I thought about it on the way here. After hearing the price offered by Dr. Zheng, I had a specific figure in mind!" In order not to scare his cheap dad, Chen Ping had to speak tactfully.
"That's right... Ping'er is also very powerful!" Chen Duohai smiled and touched Chen Ping's little head, his face full of relief.
Even if you think about it in advance, it is still not easy to get the results in such a fast time. At least it can prove that this guy is good at studying.
"By the way, do you still have these herbs that Grandpa Wang told you? Do you still remember the specific places?" Chen Duohai asked with a smile.
"Of course, I remember a lot more!"
"Okay, okay, that's great!" Chen Duohai patted Chen Ping's shoulder, then looked around and ordered.
"I'm going to buy some oranges. You stay here and don't move around."
Chen Ping:??????
These words sound familiar.
Aren’t you just taking advantage of me?
Oh, no...
It seems like he is my father! It seems that the memories of this past life are still being integrated and adapted.
Not long after, Chen Duohai came back with a few oranges. Although he made more than a tael of silver, he was only willing to spend dozens of cents to buy some oranges, and wanted to save the rest for his son's education.
"Ping'er, eat one, it's so sweet!" As soon as Chen Duohai came closer, he took out an orange and put it in Chen Ping's hand.
Chen Ping looked at it and put it in his arms solemnly, "It's better to wait until you go back to eat it with your mother!"
"Silly boy, isn't this the case?"
Looking at his father's doting eyes, Chen Ping felt the happiness from this world for the first time.
After putting away the oranges, Chen Duohai took a long breath and looked up at the sky. According to past experience, Uncle Pan must still be waiting in line.
As the doctor of the big pharmacy in the town, Dr. Zheng must be a well-informed person. Since he has given Chen Ping such high praise, why not take advantage of this opportunity to take your children to Huating Academy.
Thinking of this, Chen Duohai took Chen Ping in the direction of Huating Academy. As the only orthodox academy in Qingsong Town, he knew the location just by asking...
......
Huating Academy.
At this time, the place was packed with people, and the gate was completely surrounded.
Of course, most of them are ordinary people who came to watch. The young people who actually participated in the enrollment stood at the front. Even though there was a crowd behind them, there was no impatience on these people's faces. On the contrary, they were full of pride and concealment.
Deep arrogance.
The status of scholars in the Dayu Dynasty is quite high. Those who are named on the gold list can enter the court and become officials. Even ordinary scholars are the favorites of various local families. Whenever a scholar is born in the family, it is a matter of honoring the ancestors.
It is precisely because of this that people are willing to witness such lively scenes, even if this is just the first step to becoming a scholar.
As for those young people who participated in the enrollment and their families are more happy to see this scene, who would refuse the crowd's pursuit?
"Give way..."
"Excuse me, please give way!" Chen Duohai struggled to pull Chen Ping and squeezed in as much as possible.
He wanted Chen Ping to see what a real academy was like. This should be the same as later generations of parents taking their children to Beijing to visit Tsinghua University and Peking University.
If possible, Chen Duohai would let his son study here at all costs.
Chen Ping followed behind, his right hand held tightly by his father, and he was almost squashed in the crowd.
He thought it would be lively here, but he didn't expect it to be so lively.
After a lot of effort and a lot of abuse, Chen Duohai and Chen Ping finally pushed their way to the front. When they saw the scene in the academy, they both couldn't help but froze for a moment.<
/p>
Huating Academy is extremely quiet, in sharp contrast to the bustle outside. All the young people who came to participate in the enrollment are all Eguanbo leaders, sitting upright. Even the people at the back are looking at the lobby of the academy with fiery eyes.
Go to those old people who close their eyes and meditate.
Wherever Chen Ping looked, everyone was full of enthusiasm. Although the people who gathered knew that they could not be one of them, they still unconsciously envied and yearned for them.
Everyone in Qingsong Town understands that this is a passage that can change lives.
"Dang..."
A crisp bell rang, and everyone suddenly became consciously quiet and looked solemn.
The old man in the highest position in the academy was stroking his beard. At this time, the young man standing next to him took a few steps forward and said to everyone: "I am Song Qiao. I have caused such a noise today, so please forgive me."
p>
The man nodded slightly and showed elegance in his gestures, "I'm bothering you all this time for one thing only. To recruit a new group of students for the academy. If there are any good ones, most of the tuition fees will be reduced."
"Isn't this year's recruitment already over?" The aunt carrying a vegetable basket next to her looked confused.
Chen Ping was also surprised when a familiar figure came to his side without knowing when.
"This is really a coincidence, isn't it?"
Chen Ping looked up and saw the gray brocade robe and knew who it was.
"Doctor Zheng, you are here too." Chen Duohai seemed a little embarrassed and didn't know where to put his hands.
Doctor Zheng smiled and said: "Just to join in the fun, Huating Academy has acquired a lot of academic fields in the past few days, and Wang Juren is also kind-hearted. It seems that there will be many more students this year."
