Chapter 71 The sky is falling
The pen fee is the royalties. Starting from Sima Xiangru, Chen Ajiao fell out of favor, she remembered Sima Xiangru, "I gave 100 kilograms of gold to Xiangru, and Wenjun got wine." She wanted to rely on the literary master's big money to make a comeback. As a result, Sima Xiangru fulfilled her mission and wrote the masterpiece "Changmen Fu".
Han Yuguan of the Tang Dynasty did a good job and wrote good articles, so he also paid a lot of money for money throughout his life. Du Fu was even more talented and could be a little less official, so he "got to go to the south county to ask for money for money in the stele. The book sells the article to make a living, and the room is hung upside down. The door of the jingling is deep, and the soil is cut into cold smoke."
The emperor's secretary team, including Hanlin Bachelor, Zhongshu Sheren, and Zhizhi's imperial edicts.
Yang Yi drafted an edict to comment on Kou Zhun's "can determine major issues and not care about minor matters. He has a weapon of a general, but does not show his sharpness. He can take care of things." After seeing this, Emperor Zhenzong of Song immediately proposed to appoint Kou Laoxi as prime minister. Lao Kou was very happy after hearing this and paid the prescribed payment fee, with the exception of 100 taels of platinum.
It is an irregular royalty.
"I can't collect this money," Zhang Zai said, looking at the 40-kan Jiaozi.
His idea was a bit awkward. If the Zhu family made a profit from publishing a book, he would pay for it. If the Zhu family lost money, he would pay it over. What is the reason?
"Mr., think about Zigong redeems people and Zilu. This is the first payment for money, and there will be a fee for supporting the family. If you write books and make a living, will there be more great scholars who write books and make a big contribution to the Confucian way? If you have wisdom and have no wisdom, it is also the income from labor, which is even more glorious than your salary."
"You little ghost elf," Guo scolded with a smile.
"Mr., don't think about it anymore. Isn't it just a few dozen knots? Jingui, senior brother will take you to climb the mountain."
During the Double Ninth Festival, the entire Song Dynasty was on holiday, but Zhang Zai had a banquet for his fellow villagers as usual.
So Wang Ju took Zhang Zai's son and left.
A joy appeared on Guo's face.
Zhang Zai got married late, so he could be considered a middle-aged child. He might have children in the future, but it is rare to have only one son at the moment.
Wang Ju is here, Erniu and Sanniu often bring Jingui to play, tell stories to Jingui, and sometimes bring Jingui to buy some snacks.
So Guo likes the Wang brother and sister more and more.
Mr. Li said that treating him as half of his son is not only Wang Ju’s talent, but also part of his talent and feelings are the most important.
When they got home, they arranged an inn for Li Wan and his sister.
The house that Zhu Huan rented for Wang Ju was very well-placed and suitable, but it was a little smaller. There were three main houses, a living room in the middle, two beds were placed in the east wing, a desk, and several bookshelves, and the study room was also the bedroom of Wang Ju brothers and sisters. The west wing allowed Quan Er's eldest son to live in.
With the money in hand, Wang Ju hired a middle-aged maid from Yunyan County, and paid a salary for Erguan in January. After breakfast, he came to do laundry and clean. If he had work, he would go back later. If he didn't have work, he would go back early.
There are actually many jobs that Wang Ju and his younger brother and sister have done for him. Although he hired a maid, Wang Ju did not neglect his younger brother and sister's ability to do things.
Although the salary is not high, the success is that the work is light and Wang Ju is easy-going, so women also like it.
But when guests come, they have to stay in the inn.
After making arrangements, go climbing immediately.
The brother and sister three plus Quan second eldest son, Li Wan, and a coachman who is driving the car can be regarded as a huge group of people.
Wang Ju stayed in this small county for more than a year, and along the way, many villagers greeted him warmly.
"Why did you lie to me?" Li Fei'er asked.
Women are tolerant of those who please themselves.
When she arrived at Yunyan County, Li Fei'er deliberately put on her makeup on the ox cart and her body grew up. She wore a white dress, like a lotus in the water.
However, she is still young, which makes Wang Ju feel a little guilty. It may be that in two years, this guilt will automatically disappear.
"When did I lied to you?"
"You're doing well here."
"It's okay." Wang Ju replied, saying that he could only say that he had no worries about food and clothing, but had nothing to do with luxury. Perhaps for his younger sister and younger brother, it was a life like heaven.
"Then why...you said it was very hard?"
Wang Ju laughed out loud.
In fact, the little girl came twice the year before, and she gave Wang Ju a bad impression and looked beautiful. However, he was still young the year before, and Li Fei'er was even younger. At this time, Wang Ju was quite repulsive when talking about marriage.
And his previous life experience also left a shadow on him. After all, Li Fei'er grew up in a wealth of clothes and food.
"It's hard to say. If I can't sing the name of Donghuamen, no matter how hard I try, I'm not as good as yours for the time being." Wang Ju used the word "temporary", but Li Fei'er didn't pay attention.
In fact, he mainly studies. No matter what, if he does not have a strong backstage, his own strength will be weak, and he may not be able to maintain his wealth. Moreover, Cai Jing will also like to eat big players in the future.
But he wanted to study and imperial examinations. In these businesses, he could only stand in the dark, so in these ten years, his wealth could not exceed the Li family.
"If you get what you want, it will be even harder to become an official."
"Huh."
"Think about it, all the officials in our dynasty are mobile, and they will change the place in three years. If they are on the front line, there will be danger of war. If they are on the south, they will be very unaccustomed to life. If they are on the capital, intrigue is beyond your imagination. Li Xiaozi, behind the seemingly glorious officials, it is difficult to do."
"That's better than the common people."
That's true.
"What did you think when the Zhu family asked your family for marriage on my behalf?"
"If it weren't for the Empress, I wouldn't agree." After Li Fei'er said smugly, she ran to the front to buy fruit for Erniu and the other three little guys. In fact, the Zhu family came to Wang Ju to propose marriage. The little girl was very happy, but how could she say it out loud?
Li Wan smiled behind him.
He has known Wang Ju for a long time and knows that Wang Ju has some character and values feelings. As long as he is not rejected by his sister, his sister will not suffer any losses in the future.
Yunyan is surrounded by mountains, but the mountains are not high, and the weather is good, and the autumn is clear and the weather is cool, so a few people climbed several mountains before returning.
It was her husband's young wife, so Guo tried to keep the Li brothers and sisters at home for dinner, and then deliberately talked to Li Fei'er for a long time.
Zhang Zai and his wife did not show off their airs, and the Li family was also a wealthy family, so Li Fei'er was able to deal with it appropriately.
After dinner, Wang Ju first sent them to the inn. After returning, Guo said, "That little lady is good, she is simpler than you, you should treat her well."
"Master's wife, are you praising me or belittle me?"
Zhang Zai suddenly asked: "Did you get engaged to the Li family's little lady the year before?"
"good."
"You were still a poor boy at that time. Why did the Li family like you?"
Wang Ju was sweating all over his head, and it turned out that the teacher liked gossip too. So he laughed: "Mr., have you tasted good? But the fate of the teacher is good, look at how virtuous the master's wife is."
"You kid." Zhang Zai made him angry and laugh.
But Guo smiled and hit Wang Ju in the back with his fist, then said, "Official, this is fate."
But it's up to date.
At that time, several young ladies came to Wangjiazhai to play. The one who was most interested in Wang Ju was not Li Fei'er, but the young ladies of the Meng family. However, Wang Ju, a young ladies, were not moved. This was called self-knowledge. He was still young and had not grown up, so why bother to worry? Maybe he could be unnecessarily insulted.
Then Zhu Qing randomly ordered a couple, which really made him and Zhu Huan do it.
In fact, Wang Ju herself looks satisfied now. Li Fei'er is pretty good regardless of her appearance or character. Although she is a little smaller, she just gets engaged and doesn't matter much.
The Li brothers and sisters stayed in this small county for three days before returning.
Li Fei'er was a little reluctant to leave.
But I have to take some reputation and leave.
Wang Ju said: "Since ancient times, the water splashed by a married daughter. Some people have become the water splashed before they have married. Erniu, don't learn from some people."
Erniu bent over with a smile.
"I'm not the water that splashed out." Li Fei'er cursed with a smile.
After making a small joke, Li Fei'er left shyly.
It seemed that Wang Ju had returned to his peaceful hard life, but at this moment, a yamen runner sent an urgent report from Fuzhou.
Zhang Zai opened the urgent report and saw that his face changed drastically, and he didn't know that the message fell.
"Mr., what's wrong?" Wang Ju asked strangely from the side.
"The sky collapses."
