I became a saint with idle books

“Uncle help…” A figure rushed into the lobby, saw Chen Luo sitting in the center, and bowed down. Ji Zhong took a slight step forward and blocked between the other party and Chen Luo.

Almost at the same time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the Bo Mansion, Chen Luo raised his head, and saw Wang Li following behind with a team of guards. That Wang Li shouted while running: “Lu Tong, don’t startle Uncle…” Saying that, he also ran to Chen Luo and gave a salute, “I have seen Uncle.” ”

Chen Luo looked puzzled: “What’s going on?” After that, he looked at the figure kneeling on the ground and asked, “Who is he?” ”

To be honest, after traveling into this world, it was the first time he saw someone kneeling in prayer.

“Uncle forgives. Wang Li looked helpless and said, “This person’s name is Lu Tong, and he is the steward of Sanxi Zhuang. ”

“Sankeiso? ”

“Yes, didn’t His Majesty reward you with an imperial estate the day before? The Department of Internal Affairs finally settled on Sankeizhuang, just outside the capital, surrounded by three streams, which are the most abundant. ”

Chen Luo nodded, his own words were Dongliu, and the Internal Affairs Department gave Sanxi Zhuang, but it corresponded.

“Then he is…” Chen Luo pointed to Lu Tong on the ground.

Wang Li sighed: “The rules of the imperial estate are the rules that are rated to be handed over every year, and if there is a surplus, it should be a reward.” Leave the rest of the trifles alone. ”

“This Lu Tong has a good heart, and whenever he meets a wandering child, he will accept him into the imperial estate. Today I was ordered to go to receive it, and found that there were no less than two hundred young children suppressed in the Huangzhuang. ”

“If it is normal, as long as he can give enough examples, this matter will be closed to one eye and one eye will pass.” But this Sanxizhuang is already your uncle’s private property, so you can’t do this. ”

“Hearing that this group of children is going to be dismissed, Lu Tong is anxious, and he has to plead in front of you. I didn’t stop it at this moment, just…”

Chen Luo glanced at Wang Li, he was not a fool, this Wang Li came up and robbed the white, if he said that he did not communicate well with Lu Tong, he would not believe it. However, how to do this thing has another plan in his heart.

He first called Ji Zhong to his side and whispered a few words. Ji Zhong nodded and walked out of the mansion quickly.

Then, he looked at Lu Tong, who was kneeling on the ground: “Tell me about it, how do you think I can save my life?” ”

When Lu Tong heard Chen Luo’s voice, he quickly kowtowed again, and did not dare to raise his head, and said: “Back to Uncle, in the past, the share that Sanxi Zhuang handed over to the Internal Affairs Department was 10,000 taels of silver per year, but the best harvest in the Zhuang year, excluding daily expenses, can only collect more than 11,000 taels in total. ”

“The old slave begged the uncle to keep the old slave to continue to manage the imperial estate, and also let those children live in the imperial estate. The old slave was willing to hand over 12,000 taels a year. If there is one or two less, the old slave will apologize for his sin. ”

Chen Luo raised his eyebrows: “Tell me about it, at most 11,000 taels of silver a year, how can you promise me 12,000 taels a year?” ”

Lu Tong had already prepared and said, “When the old slave goes back, he will return part of the rented land and let the children cultivate.” One adult’s work, ten children to do, can always rise some income. If not…”

When Lu Tong said this, he suddenly closed his mouth and clenched his hands.

Chen Luo knew in his heart: “If it still doesn’t work, sell some children to make money, right?” ”

When Lu Tong heard this, he suddenly raised his head, and tears flowed on his vicissitudes face: “The old slave doesn’t want to… But if there is no imperial village to cover it, these children will have no way to live…”

“Uncle…” interjected Wang Li, “I also know what they are planning.” But it’s not that Lu Tong wants to sell the children, it’s those children who volunteer… The old slave also went to see, the youngest child is three or four years old, the maximum is eleven or twelve years old, if he encounters a flower shooter, the lucky one is sold to the big family as a slave, and the unlucky one is estimated to not grow up…”

Chen Luo sighed in his heart, waved his hand, and said to Lu Tong: “You get up first, wait a minute.” ”

Lu Tong looked at Chen Luo suspiciously, and Wang Li frowned: “Uncle let you get up, you will get up, hurry.” ”

Lu Tong quickly stood up and stood aside with his hands tied.

……

After more than an hour, Chen Luo leaned on the seat to make up for it, and Ji Zhong came back tired.

Ji Zhong walked to Chen Luo’s side and told Chen Luo’s findings: “I have all gone to inquire, this Lu Tong has taken in orphans for three or four years, and he didn’t suddenly gather.” When the child reaches the age of thirteen, he leaves on his own, and there is no doubt in the number of people. ”

Chen Luo nodded at this, he had asked Ji Zhong to investigate when Sanxizhuang had taken in children, what if Lu Tong wanted to occupy the Huangzhuang, temporarily find Wang Li to accompany him to perform the play, find a group of children to perform, and use his sympathy?

In addition, it is also necessary to prevent Sanxizhuang from being a charitable organization on the surface, and being a base camp for human trafficking behind the scenes, so if he agrees to come down, he will not be an accomplice.

Fortunately, the news brought back by Ji Zhong gave him a reassuring pill.

“In that case, it’s easy to do. Chen Luo shook his head, looked sideways, and had to say that Wang Li’s professionalism was really good. He let him sit, he didn’t sit, he stood for more than an hour, like a nobody. However, Lu Tong turned out to be the same as Wang Li, which surprised Chen Luo a little.

“Okay, let’s go…” Chen Luo stood up and walked out. Wang Li hurriedly asked, “Uncle, where are we going?” ”

“Go to Sankeiso to see the children! Chen Luo smiled and looked at the nervous Lu Tong again, “There is no need to return the rented land, the Huangzhuang can continue to let the children live, but the children have to work for me, rest assured, I will pay for the work…”

Lu Tong’s face was delighted, and then he was worried again, and asked: “Forgive the old slave for talking a lot, what does Uncle want them to do?” The old slave was afraid that they would spoil the uncle’s big thing. ”

“Can’t be broken! Chen Luo knew that Lu Tong was worried about the child, and smiled lightly: “I want them to be a newspaper seller… Bah, little connoisseur! ”

……

Red Sleeve Academy.

A pair of beautiful eyes stared at the micro-lake in the academy, and the owner of the beautiful eye sighed softly. Her brother is a student of Zheliu Academy, and at noon she told her about the article “Du Shiniang” that caused Zhenliu students to advance, because of the limitations of the heavenly way, she can only repeat an approximate, but just a few words of probability also made her yearn for it.

“Do you want to skip class early to go to the North Wind Tower? I don’t know if Mr. Nan will say “Du Shiniang” again. The woman casually picked up a stone and threw it into the lake, “Or launch a petition to get the head of the courtyard to come forward to find Wan Amber?” ”

“Butterfly Fei, what’s the daze? Did you miss the lover? Another delicate voice sounded, and the woman named Butterfly turned her head sideways, and saw a figure jumping towards her, and the two giants on her chest were quite spectacular.

“Stop jumping, I’m dizzy! Cheng Diefei took a sip, “What lover?” How do you say such a thing? ”

The “giant” woman came to Cheng Diefei’s side, grabbed Cheng Diefei’s arm, just embedded in the middle of her chest, and said with a smile, “Why can’t you say?” My dad said that male love and female love is the most heavenly way, and only hypocrites avoid being like femme fatale! ”

“Your father is a great Confucian, and everything he says is learning. You’re just a little woman, and you don’t know shame…” Cheng Diefei scratched Liu Mengrui’s nose, “If you, like your father, chant the legendary words ‘when the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world’, I will recognize what you say…”

“Hmph…” Liu Mengrui twisted her body arrogantly, and the fleshy feeling on her chest made Cheng Diefei’s pretty face blush slightly. Liu Mengrui didn’t notice it, and said: “It’s this poem, my family will be broken by those girls, and I will live in the academy for two months…”

“Okay, okay, aren’t you going to attend Xiuhe’s literary meeting? How did you come to me? ”

“I almost forgot. Liu Mengrui knocked on her head, “The academy issued a public announcement, saying that it was to recruit Confucians who wanted to enter the realm of ‘Pen Walking Dragon Snake’ to transcribe Yawen articles, transcribe a hundred times to give one credit, I specially came to call you to go together.” ”

“What article does you know? ”

Liu Mengrui thought for a while: “Like, what is it called “Smiling Rivers and Lakes”…”

“What a strange name, do you know which Great Confucian’s article? ”

“Hmm… It’s not Da Ru, it seems to be some kind of uncle, called Wan…”

“Wan Amber? ”

“Yes, yes, that’s the name. ”

Cheng Diefei pulled his hand out of the soft trap and walked straight towards the student office…
