Chapter 25 Things

Hezhou is not a big place, and some things are causing a lot of controversy. There are only two things that have been discussed most in Hezhou these days. One is the murder of Qian Yu, a famous rich man in Hezhou. This case was definitely a sensation in Hezhou, and it was a very popular existence. His concubine stabbed him to death.

This incident also led to the status of concubines in Hezhou being in danger. Many people began to investigate their concubines, for fear of following in Qian Yu's footsteps.

What people didn't expect was that some people found out the problem, some were the wife who took the opportunity to deal with her concubine, and some were even kicked out of the house. The gossip and scattered stories on the streets can be said to have rich materials.

Ge Dan did not comment on this, but Ge Dan's concubine Qing Xiu has come to Ge Dan a lot fewer times these days, probably because Ge Dan's wife is coming, so it should be.

Another thing is that the magistrate Ge wants to promote education. This incident has also caused a lot of trouble in Hezhou, especially among scholars. The scholars and scholars are very eager to pay attention to this matter. When this matter was proposed, scholars from Hezhou are very supportive.

Ge Dan's reputation has increased a lot. The most important thing is that the big merchants in Hezhou paid money and some people paid people. For a time, the atmosphere of studying in Hezhou increased greatly. It is said that Ge Dan has made contributions to education outside.

Of course, Ge Lin said this to Ge Dan. In Ge Dan's opinion, there should be not many flatteries in it, all of them are practical things. Ge Dan thinks this is very good. Although Ge Dan has been in Hezhou for less than a month, you can't just look at the time. Although the time is short, you have done a lot of things.

Well, it seems that things didn't do much, but it doesn't matter, temperament is the most important.

"Young Master, Teacher Zhou is here!" Ge Lin watched his young master sitting on the rocking chair and swaying, and from time to time he reached out to hold a piece of candied fruit. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. His young master is too lazy, right?

Ge Dan thought this was good, very leisurely. He was forced to work every day in his previous life, and he became a dog after working. Now this is a rare leisure time.

After looking at Ge Lin, Ge Dan stood up and said, "Let's go and see. Teacher Zhou has been very busy these days, and it is probably a result."

After coming to the front, Ge Dan saw Zhou Chang. Although he looked a little tired and tired, Zhou Chang was in good spirits. It can be seen that he was very concerned about this time and seemed to have found the feeling of doing a career. Ge Dan nodded, it was good, it was good, and his attitude was very important.

"The minister has met the magistrate!" After seeing Ge Dan, Zhou Chang quickly bowed and bowed with an excited smile on his face.

Ge Dan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't be so polite in private, sit down!" After Zhou Chang sat down, Ge Dan said: "When he saw Teacher Zhou smiling, I knew that this time the matter was probably done. It depends on the work of Teacher Zhou to do it!"

Although his face was filled with smiles, Zhou Chang still said humbly: "My lord is a mistake. The subordinates have just done some minor things. All of this depends on the planning of the magistrate!"

After a few false polite words, Ge Dan turned the topic back and said with a smile: "Teacher Zhou, tell me, how are the matter doing?"

"That's it!" When talking about the serious matter, Zhou Chang's expression became serious and he hurriedly said, "Everything went smoothly. Several juren in the county were willing to contribute money and efforts. They greatly appreciated the adults' promotion and education, and were also willing to come to the adults for more benefits. They have raised about 5,000 guan in the past few days." As he said that, Zhou Chang took out a list and said, "Sir, this is the list!"

Another five thousand stalks?

Ge Dan really didn't expect that Hezhou was quite rich. He reached out to take the list handed over by Zhou Chang, opened it and found that there were fourteen people on it, all of them were juren. The one who donated the most was a man named Han Mao, who donated 2,000 guan himself, and the money was not bad.

After looking at Zhou Chang, Ge Dan asked, "Teacher Zhou, who is this Han Juren?"

"Sir, this Han Juren's family is also a family-running study. Although there has never been any fame and honor before, this generation of Han Juren is very good. He has passed the imperial examination at the age of 28, and is in this subject." Zhou Chang said without changing his face: "Because several generations of people have managed well, the Han family is considered to be poor and wealthy."

"I heard that Master Han strongly supported him and invested 2,000 guan."

Although Zhou Chang said something obscurely, Ge Dan still heard it. The bullshit farming and reading has passed on the family, and there has never been a fame and fortune for several generations. Then the Han family is very obvious. This is a businessman. He has no foundation in the officialdom. He has published two thousand trump cards this time, which is clearly what he has made to curry favor with him.

This is the hope of the family. Not to mention two thousand trump cards, even if you bet on all your wealth, the Han family will not hesitate at all.

If the Han family has evolved, then the Han family will change. From a merchant, local rich man to a scholar, it is obvious that it is not enough to cross the class.

Putting down the roster, Ge Dan smiled and said, "I feel sorry for my parents all over the world!"

Seeing Ge Dan say nothing, Zhou Chang felt relieved. You know, because Mr. Han gave him an extra thought, now that things have been done, Zhou Chang's heart can be put in his stomach. But there is another thing, Zhou Chang doesn't know if this matter is done.

After thinking about it, Zhou Chang gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, I have a love for you!"

Ge Dan was stunned. There was something else? After a smile, Ge Dan said, "Teacher Zhou has something to say, but it doesn't matter!"

"That's right!" Zhou Chang thought for a while, and then said, "After hearing that adults are promoting education, many people think that adults are promoting Hezhou. They are willing to do their part. At the same time, they also hope that their children can ask for more benefits in front of adults."

Ge Dan was stunned and then laughed. Of course he knew who these people were. The answer was very simple, that is, rich people.

Whether it is a businessman or a landlord, there must be someone in the family who wants to study, but they have no fame. The idea of ​​these people is also very simple, and they pay some money to send their children to Ge Dan. First of all, it is for cultivation. After all, Ge Dan was a Jinshi, so it is difficult to find such a teacher.

Secondly, you can also become familiar with others and expand your connections. All you have to pay is just spending some money.

Ge Dan looked at Zhou Chang with fun, then asked with a smile: "Do you have fame and fortune?"
