Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 140: Lack of ambition

"Okay, what a Disciple Rule!"

Magistrate Dong flipped through the thin book in his hand, the sadness on his face disappeared. After reading the entire "Disciple Rules", he couldn't help but praise it out loud.

""Disciple Rules"?"

A person standing quietly in the hall looked up at Magistrate Dong with a puzzled expression on his face.

But I don’t know what makes Mr. Dong so happy. What is the "Disciple Rules"?

"Professor Feng, you should also read this "Disciple Regulations"." Seeing the confusion of the people in the hall, Magistrate Dong closed the book and handed it over.

The man who was called Professor Feng took the book with both hands, full of doubts. When he looked up, he saw the beautiful words "Disciple Rules" on the cover.

He raised his head and glanced at Magistrate Dong before turning to the first page. There were only more than a thousand words in the whole article, but Professor Feng read it very slowly. Gradually, his expression changed from calm to excited.

"Master Dong, who wrote this "Disciple Regulations"?" Professor Feng looked up at Magistrate Dong with a shocked expression. "These three-character rhyme is easy to understand. It promotes filial piety, loyalty, integrity, and benevolence." Observing etiquette is truly an excellent way to enlighten and educate your children!”

As a professor of government studies and one of the academic officials of a government, his duty is to teach and teach. Speaking of which, he has to understand the meaning of the "Disciple Regulations" more than Magistrate Dong.

"Congratulations, sir. With this "Disciple Rules", you no longer have to worry about your teaching achievements." Professor Feng quickly figured out the connection and said to Magistrate Dong, cupping his fists.

He certainly understands the difficulties faced by Magistrate Dong. If this "Disciple Regulations" is submitted, the shortcomings in education this year can be made up for.

"I heard that this article was written by a scholar in my office, and I thank him for his blessing!" Magistrate Dong was obviously in a good mood, and he no longer looked troubled as before.

When the steward of the palace sent this article, he had already informed him that this "Disciple Rules" was not written by the female gentleman, but by a young man named Li Yi.

Magistrate Dong immediately sent someone to check the scholar's details. Of course, the most important thing was to confirm whether he was from Qing'an Prefecture. If the "Disciple Regulations" had already appeared elsewhere, wouldn't he be happy in vain? ?

Fortunately, Li Yi did not disappoint him. He had the reputation of being a scholar, and it was he who ruled Qing'an Prefecture.

Magistrate Dong has already remembered this name in his mind. If he is elected as a candidate in the future, he can look after him and recommend him to the Ministry of Civil Affairs so that he can fill the gap.

"The adults are still teaching you well." Professor Feng flattered him at the right time.

If this "Disciple Regulations" can be implemented, the power of enlightenment will definitely fall on Governor Dong.

However, Magistrate Dong seemed to have remembered something, shook his head and said: "It's just that the scholar named Li Yi was a little unmotivated and didn't put his mind on studying. He wanted to get the title of Juren as soon as possible and actually opened a shop in Fucheng. A good scholar is not a businessman. If I hadn't had someone verify it, I really wouldn't have believed that he was the author of the "Disciples' Regulations."

"Li Yi?"

Professor Feng was stunned when he heard this, and asked with some confusion: "But what about Li Yi from "Magpie Bridge Immortal" and "Shui Diao Ge Tou"?"

"Professor Feng also knows this person?" Magistrate Dong raised his eyebrows and asked.

"The Li Yi that the lower official knows is the one who wrote "Magpie Bridge Immortal" and "Shui Diao Ge Tou". He has unparalleled poetic talent and is called "the most talented man in Jingguo" by the old scholar. I don't know what I want to tell you. Are they the same person?" Professor Feng thought for a while and said.

""Shui Tiao Ge Tou"? That word that leaked out at the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival?" Magistrate Dong frowned. In his opinion, poetry is just a trail and has no use in governing the country. It is all leftover from their entertainment back then. As for the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival, he just went through the motions and didn't pay too much attention. Later, he only heard about "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" from the mouth of the daughter of the family. As for who wrote the poem, he is not sure. .

"If it is true as your Excellency said, this kind of scholar who does not know how to make progress should really be punished. If he can be brought back to the right path, he may become another good talent in the future." Professor Feng also frowned when he heard this.

As a professor in a government school, what he usually does most is teach and enlighten students in the government school. I don’t know how many students with bad temperament have taken the right path under his guidance.

"I didn't expect that my mentor would comment on him like this. I am even more curious about this person..."

An expression of interest appeared on Magistrate Dong's face, he stroked his short beard and said.

…………

In the past few days, the young ladies in Qing'an Fucheng have been quite critical of Ruyifang.

A few days ago, this store stopped selling Ruyilu, and could only rely on previous orders to pick up the goods, which made many people who had not had time to buy regret it.

In today's Qing'an City, Ruyi Dew has obviously become a fashion trend. Rich ladies, talented scholars and scholars are rushing to buy it. Suddenly, the sale is stopped, which has a big impact on these upper-class circles.

However, just when they couldn't bear it anymore and planned to go to Ruyi Square to inquire about the reason, overnight, several shops selling Ruyi Dew suddenly appeared in the city.

At first, people were skeptical about this. After all, these days, there is only one store selling Ruyi Dew. It is said that many people who wanted to buy the Ruyi Dew formula were rejected. How could so many stores suddenly pop up?

Of course, a very small number of people have no doubts about this. Behind these shops is Prince Ning's Mansion, so how could there be anything wrong with the things they sell?

Of course, most people's doubts were completely dispelled after they went to Ruyifang to ask in person.

The shopkeeper of Ruyifang admitted that the Ruyilu sold in those shops were all genuine Ruyilu, which means that from now on, there will no longer be a situation where Ruyilu is out of stock and people want to buy it but cannot.

After the doubts disappeared, a new round of rush to buy broke out in the city.

Countless people flocked to those newly opened shops. The shop assistants were simply too busy to handle it, and even temporarily transferred some people from other places to stabilize the situation.

When shopkeeper Wang heard the news, he went from being shocked to unbelievable at first, and then turned into ecstasy in an instant, and finally put down his hanging heart.

The popularity of Ruyilu far exceeded his expectations. In this way, it would take only a few days to recover all the investment costs.

If this situation can continue, in two months, let alone make up for the previous difference, the income of the Wangfu will definitely be higher than in previous years.

The liquor business is still under preparation, as well as the perfume and soap that the scholar mentioned... If the profits of these businesses can be as good as Ruyi Lu... Just thinking about it makes Wang Guanjia's blood boil.

His little prince finally did something reliable!
