Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Hearing what Xiang Nan said, Bai Xiongqi also thought it was reasonable.

Going to teach at a university is indeed more relaxed than being an official.

And when it is clear, you can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat.

You can become an official, like Lu Xun, who was hired as a minister of the Ministry of Education just because he wrote a good article;

Retirement can be a scholar, like Liang Qichao, political aspirations are difficult to achieve, he simply resigns from office to study knowledge, and still has influence in society.

This is the advantage of Qingliu, life is more nourishing than those of them who are officials.

"This is actually a way." Bai Xiong laughed and said, "It seems that you have really grown up, I don't worry about you for nothing."

"I can't compare with you in terms of what big brother said." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "I'm not very experienced in the world, so I really need you to mention more in the future."

"It's easy to say." Bai Xiong nodded and said, "I'm just a younger sister, and you're just a brother-in-law. We're all on our own, so if I don't help you, who else will I help?"

...

After returning from Bai's house, Xiang Nan chatted with Jin Quan again.

Jin Quan also agreed with Xiang Nan's suggestion and supported him to become a professor at a university.

Nowadays, the political world is turbulent and unpredictable, and even he is unavoidably walking on eggshells and trembling with fear.

Although Xiang Nan is talented and smart, but after all, he is only twenty years old, and it is too risky to become an official. Uncertain when, he was hit by other people's open and dark arrows.

Instead, go to college for a few years and build up some experience and fame. When the time comes to come out to be an official again, it will be a matter of smooth sailing.

Just like in ancient times, after passing the Jinshi examination, he first went to the Imperial Academy to do editing for a few years. At that time, they can be sent to the six departments to be in charge, or they can be sent out as officials, and at least they are all fourth-rank magistrates.

"However, although you are known as a talented scholar and have written a few novels and poems, it is still not enough to gain a foothold in the academic world." Jin Quan instructed him again, "Poems and novels are just word games and small stories. It’s better to have a few academic works by your side.”

Xiang Nan nodded.

Popular novels have always been despised by mainstream literary circles. What's more, his writing is still the martial arts novel at the bottom of the chain of contempt. Relying on a few martial arts novels, trying to establish a foothold in the academic world and win the recognition of many masters is simply a fantasy.

In order to win the recognition of the academic circle, at least a few academic works must be written.

It seems that Lu Xun not only wrote short stories and essays, but also a large number of translations and academic works. For example, Russian literary works such as "October", "Destruction", and "Dead Soul", as well as works such as "A Brief History of Chinese Fiction" and "Outline of the History of Chinese Literature".

"Why don't you find someone for your father and save some articles for you?" Jin Quan asked again.

Xiang Nan was taken aback, knowing what he meant, he wanted to find some gunmen for himself, save some academic articles for himself, and then publish them in his own name.

Such things as gun substitutes have existed since ancient times, and they were also rampant during the Republic of China. Many wealthy sons, in order to make a name for themselves, will hire a bunch of poor literati to write some articles for themselves, so as to win the title of a talented scholar.

"Then there's no need." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Fake things are fake after all, and you won't be able to hide them for long. If you miss the trap, it will be even more ridiculous. I'd better study hard by myself and put in more effort."

It's not that easy to cheat. In fact, it is easy to see through whether a person is really knowledgeable or whether he is relying on plagiarism.

Because the literati at that time often gathered to conduct various discussions, debates, and research. If someone who has become famous for plagiarism with a gun will not have a single insight, then everyone will know that he is a fake.

"This is the best." Jin Quan nodded.

...

After that, Xiang Nan began to "retreat and study hard".

Except for eating and sleeping, he hardly leaves the study and does not socialize.

Everyone in the Jin family knew that he wanted to study, so few people dared to disturb him.

But in fact, with Xiang Nan's knowledge, there is no need to study hard. His knowledge is so high that he is invincible in this world.

Poetry and poetry, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, medical divination and astrology, Qimen and five elements, arithmetic strategy, astronomy and geography, financial architecture, agriculture and cooking, traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine...all of them are proficient in everything, and they are all proficient in everything.

It's just that Jin Yanxi is an ignorant person, and she always copies other people's poems when chasing girls. It can be said that she is useless and has no strengths.

In the past, Xiang Nan wrote some martial arts novels and poems, which seemed to be very beneficial to outsiders. If you become an all-rounder in civil and military affairs at once, it would be too extraordinary.

The so-called abnormal things must have demons. If he behaved too strangely, it might cause even bigger troubles. Therefore, Xiang Nan also had to put on a show, pretending to retreat and study hard.

...

And while Xiang Nan was studying hard in retreat, he did not forget to ask Jin Rong to help him keep an eye on Leng Qingqiu.

"The girl's name is Leng Qingqiu in the cold house in Luohua Hutong. Help me keep an eye on her." Xiang Nan ordered, "You especially need to help me find out which university she is going to apply for."

"I know, I understand." Jin Rong immediately understood as soon as he heard it, nodded and laughed repeatedly.

A man like Jin Yanxi, who is full of food all day long and has nothing to do, except for eating, drinking and having fun, knows how to do kung fu on women.

If you are interested in any girl, immediately order someone to investigate. Because I have done enough homework in advance, when I pursue him, I can prescribe the right medicine. The girl's thoughts are naturally in her mind, which makes her feel like a confidant.

In addition, they are rich, free, sweet-tongued, and diligent, so they can always succeed.

Jin Rong had done many such things for Jin Yanxi before. Nature understands.

"Remember, you must not let the young lady know." Xiang Nan instructed again.

"Don't worry, young master." Jin Rong smiled and nodded.

...

"Xiao Lian, make me a pot of tea." Xiang Nan raised his voice.

But after shouting and waiting for a long time, there was no reply.

Xiang Nan couldn't help being a little puzzled, got up and went outside Xiao Lian's room. When she opened the door, she was startled, and hurriedly hid a piece of paper behind her back.

"What are you hiding?" Seeing this, Xiang Nan asked curiously.

"Master Seventh, I'm not hiding anything~" Xiao Lian said in a panic, and then changed the subject, "Master Seventh, do you have any orders?"

"Oh, I want you to make me a pot of tea." Xiang Nan explained.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Xiao Lian said quickly.

"En." Xiang Nan nodded, and then closed the door.

Xiao Lian breathed a sigh of relief, quickly hid the letter, and then went to make a pot of tea.

Xiang Nan also took advantage of her making tea to quietly unlock her room, and then found a letter from under the mattress.

Opening it up, it was written by Liu Chunjiang to her, expressing his admiration, the pain of lovesickness, and expressing that he would never dislike Xiao Lian's identity as a maid, and hoped Xiao Lian would write back with him.

"No wonder she lost her mind." Xiang Nan hid the letter again, and then exited Xiao Lian's room. After returning to the study, he thought about it and decided to beat the mandarin duck.

On the one hand, Liu Chunjiang and Xiao Lian have a bad relationship, and they will not be happy if they are forced to be together; on the other hand, Xiao Lian is already his default aunt, and he is not willing to let her out.
