Through the ancient dark horse strategy

After Xiao Mo left, Ye Xiaoyi went to Xiao Qian to settle the score.This black-bellied boss actually gave me such a hot salt ticket as compensation. Now that the business of selling salt tickets can't be done, I have to take back some benefits, and I can't be too cheap, this capitalist!

Xiao Qian, an old fritter in the business field, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, you dare not touch your hands? I always thought you were very bold."

Ye Xiaoyi was uninspired: "Courage is not used in this aspect, how can someone who wants to be an official career leave such obvious clues?

You don't need to give me the salt ticket in the future, and don't introduce me to anyone who buys and sells salt tickets. "

"This Xiao Mo has come to warn me a long time ago. He really loves you. How did you make someone like him recognize you as master?"

Xiao Qian has always been curious about Xiao Mo's identity, and even more curious about the relationship between the two.Master is not master, servant is not servant, which makes him very amusing.

Ye Xiaoyi didn't come to study Xiao Mo with him. Half a year ago, Yangzhou sold a batch of slaves, and there were hundreds of officials and family members who were all handsome men and beautiful women. Who remembers who was bought by whom?

What's more, many people in the watermelon-eating crowd are face-blind. When these people wash up and change their clothes, they won't remember who is who.

Xiao Mo has been in Yangzhou City for so long, but no one really recognized him as an official slave who was sold in front of the magistrate half a year ago.Ye Xiaoyi didn't intend to bring up his life experience any more, to get involved in right and wrong.

Ye Xiaoyi mentioned another matter: "Ye Yuan is too ostentatious, I plan to study in a clean environment, is there any place to recommend?"

Xiao Qian, who is cunning, immediately knew the reason for Ye Zizi's visit. It turned out that he was asking him for a house to pay for the loss of salt tickets.Xiao Qian's stomach twisted and turned, and he came up with a way to divert the trouble to the east: "Yes, the people living in the northern corner of Yangzhou are Qingliu, where the environment is quiet, and it is also close to the Slender West Lake. That guy Ye Fangtian Live there now, and he will be very happy if you go to be his neighbor."

Boss Ye wondered: "That guy loves excitement and extravagance so much, how could he go to live in a clean place?"

Xiao Qian laughed: "Isn't it because he made Ye Yuan too luxurious? After being taught a lesson by his father and limited the money, that guy sold Ye Yuan. I didn't expect Ye Yuan to be transferred to you inside.

Ye Fangtian is going to take part in this year's scientific examination, and being too loose before the examination can easily create a bad impression on the marking officials.He followed his father's wishes and moved to the land of clear streams to put on a show. If you are willing to entertain him, he must be crazy happy. "

Xiao Qian not only strongly recommended Ye Xiaoyi to be neighbors with Ye Fangtian, but also agreed to help Ye Xiaoyi build a house.

Ye Xiaoyi came here to ask for a house, and since Xiao Qian was willing to help, he didn't refuse.Boss Ye felt that he also needed to go to the land of Qingliu to put on a show, and it would be good to make friends with a few Qingliu scholars by the way.

Ye Xiaoyi moved to the peach garden in the north corner of Yangzhou, only to find out that the garden was given by Ye Fangtian, a local tyrant.It was not the money from Xiao Qian who owed him money.

Ye Xiaoyi narrowed his eyes, very good!Xiao Qian's partner is really out of tune.Teach, dare to deny the negotiated terms?

Ye Shen was going to show some color to Xiao Qian, so that he would not always think that he was too young to be rubbed.Pinch, fool me to give in and give in?The big boss must face up to this little Douding himself.

Ye Xiaoyi deliberately kept Xiao Qian cold for a while, and when Xiao Qian couldn't bear it, he came to ask him if the wine was ready?Can it be listed?Ye Xiaoyi came to repay the other's body in the same way, but also came to renege on the debt: "Hey, brother Qian, it's not sure whether this wine will be given to you or to someone else.

I said at the beginning that my share of eight and you two is already the minimum I accept.You exchanged unlimited salt tickets, so I promised me four and you six, and I have already made four concessions!Now that the salt ticket is gone, this business has to be reconsidered. "

Xiao Qian really wanted to shoot this kid to death. I announced at Lanling Restaurant that "Zhubi Wine" would be on the market within a month.

This time Xiao Qian knew that this kid was strong, and he would retreat if you entered, and he didn't dare to lower the price, so he could only compromise: "Xiao Yi, although you have your bottom line, I also have my rules here. Three Seventy percent has always been the rule of Lanling Restaurant, and I made a special case for giving you an extra [-]%.

If I give you more, everyone will think that Lanling Restaurant can bargain, and I won't be able to do business.If there is anything else you like, I can give you other things, and I can give you a few more places in the garden. "

Ye Xiaoyi smiled, wouldn't it be nice to know each other earlier?I asked you for a house, and you still let Ye Fangtian pay for it.Now that you've made me angry, you still have to bribe me.Bribe me, begging me to take over the house?

In the end, Xiao Qian sent Ye Xiaoyi two Zhuangzi from outside the city of Yangzhou, and a potential housekeeper trained by the Xiao family: Lu Shang.

There are many rich people in Yangzhou City, and the Liangtian Zhuangzi outside Yangzhou City is also very sought-after.If it hadn't been for Xiao Qian to let him out, Ye Xiaoyi, a newcomer who arrived late, would not be able to grab it even if he had money.

Most wealthy families have their own Zhuangzi. The ancients would not buy rice and grain for every meal. They preferred to grow it themselves or set up a Zhuangzi to supply it.This can greatly reduce the daily food expenses of a large family, so that all the money they earn can be used for enjoyment.

The advantage of having a Zhuangzi is that even if a family has no income for a long time and cannot make money, it can continue to live on the supply of rice, grain, fruit and vegetables from the Zhuangzi, and will not come out to beg for food or starve to death.

This time, Ye Xiaoyi planned to prepare a Zhuangzi as a way out for Grandma Ye, and another Zhuangzi as a dowry for Ye Xiaomei.After all, I am in the business world, maybe I am too big to play, and I may encounter difficulties and be so poor that I can't get rid of it. There is a Zhuangzi who can supply an old family with snacks.

Doing business is most afraid of the broken chain of funds. If the capital chain is broken, it cannot be reproduced. If it cannot be reproduced, there will be no money to enter.This is a vicious circle, if this happens, Ye Xiaoyi has the ability to turn around, but he doesn't want to affect the quality of life of his family.

That's why he asked Xiao Qian for fertile land and someone to take care of the Zhuangzi. With these two Zhuangzi, he wouldn't have to worry that he wouldn't be able to make ends meet in the past ten years, and he could concentrate on studying.

In many cases, a person is still doing nothing after ten years, not because he does not work hard, nor because he is not talented enough.It's that he doesn't have enough time to focus on what he wants to do.

It is a very happy thing to concentrate on conquering one field without busying yourself with anything.Some people don't have the capital to stop busy work for ten years and do what they want to do.And those who are relatively free are always busy with such and such trivial matters, which leads to everyone still repeating their previous life year after year.

Ye Xiaoyi now has someone to do laundry, cooking, and housework for him. In terms of money, he has prepared future expenses and the current long-term meal ticket. He will start to increase his recruitment, concentrate on learning, and speed up the process.

He has almost finished learning the poems and books. Although Shangshu is difficult to memorize, there are only 58 chapters. He memorizes one chapter a day by force. After two months, he has finished reading this heavenly book.

Next, Ye Xiaoyi was going to attack the 20-character three rituals, and if he didn't know the three rituals, he was ashamed to say that he was a bachelor who "knowledges books and achieves rituals".He doesn't even understand etiquette, and he goes out to socialize like a country bumpkin who doesn't know what he doesn't understand, which will make people laugh.Especially the ancients were very particular. If someone pointed out that you, a literati, don't know how to be polite, he would lose face.

The [-]-character "Yi Li" in the three rites talks about the red tape of "family respect and respect" and other human relations among the scholar-bureaucrats in the blood of the big family, how to respect the elders, and distinguishing the relationship between the superior and the inferior is the proper number of etiquette.

It also stipulates in detail what kind of clothes a scholar should wear on which occasion, which direction or position to stand or sit in, how to take each step, and so on.

In short, it is to tell scholars that if they attend a more advanced banquet, it will be ridiculous to sit in the wrong seat, so there is a book like "Rituals" as a guide to etiquette for scholars.

This book is also arranged by mothers-in-law and mothers for the rituals that scholars will use in their lives.For example, what is the procedure of "Crown Ceremony" and what should scholars do.There are also "betrothal gifts", "funeral sacrifices", "meeting ceremony", "drinking ceremony" and other etiquette should be how to operate.

In short, it is to make the ostentation of the scholars a little bigger and more elegant, so as to distinguish the difference between the scholar-official class and the common people.The scholar-bureaucrats who keep the etiquette are also honored. A copy of "Rituals" has traveled all over the world, so that scholars can be polite and not offensive wherever they go.

After reading "Rituals" Ye Xiaoyi silently decided not to recite it. It's good to memorize the details of this kind of thing, and it's a waste of brain cells to recite it.Just skip to the next one.

The next "Zhou Li" is also [-] words, it is a national gift, also known as "Zhou Guan", it is about the country.What is the family system and official system like?The three provinces and six ministries govern the country according to this system.

The "Zhou Guan" stipulates six major systems:

Court system (Ministry of Officials: manages the promotion and impeachment of hundreds of officials), local civil affairs system (Ministry of Households: manages population and land taxation), clan system (Ministry of Rites: responsible for the arrangement of national ceremonies, such as sacrificial offerings, empress appointments, and imperial examinations for talent selection system, sealing the country, patrolling hunting, etc.), military system (Ministry of War), penal system (Ministry of Punishment), production and construction system (Ministry of Industry: management of farmland water conservancy, water control, upgrading of production tools, etc.).

Ye Xiaoyi looked it over, and silently decided to skip it. When he was destined to be an official, which department he entered, he would look at the system of this department in detail.Now he doesn't have the mental strength.

The next book "Book of Rites" has a total of 49 characters and [-] chapters, which are statements, explanations, and discussions on the ritual system and etiquette.What is the point of telling the literati why they did this?

It involves many primitive social organizations, living customs, moral norms, cultural relics system, etc., and explores the positive impact of social etiquette on psychological feelings.It is the one with the most exams among the three rites.

And "Book of Rites" is not like the difficult Shangshu, it is very literary.The full text of the Book of Rites is recorded in prose, and some use short and vivid stories to express a certain truth, some are majestic and rigorous in structure, and some are concise and meaningful.

Among them, famous articles such as "University", "Doctrine of the Mean" and "Li Yun" must be memorized.There are a lot of incisive and profound aphorisms in other chapters, Ye Xiaoyi plans to focus on these 49 essays next.

However, [-] words in the entire "Book of Rites" is not a small number, and each article here is more than n times longer than Shangshu.

Ye Xiaoyi cut off the unimportant parts of the chapters that were too long in Shangshu, and only recited paragraphs of about 300 words that are meaningful.Otherwise, how could he be so quick, abolishing a heavenly book in two months, and still haven't forgotten it?

For the "Book of Rites", Ye Xiaoyi also prepared to memorize only the famous passages in each chapter, and only recited the whole chapter when it encountered too famous chapters.He heard that during the dictation part of the exam, if the chapter is too long, you won't be allowed to be silent, it will only start, and if you complete this part silently, you will pass the test.

Ye Xiaoyi memorized the Book of Rites by himself, and the more he memorized, the more he found that every paragraph was written so smoothly, so slippery.Do you have to memorize it all?But [-] words was too much, he still didn't want to work too much, so he went to the next door to ask Ye Fangtian to draw the key points for him.

Only then did Ye Xiaoyi think of Xiao Molai.It would be great if Xiao Mo was here, why would he find Ye Fangtian, that unreliable guy?

He felt that Xiao Mo could grasp the problem very steadily.If Xiao Mo was here, he would definitely be able to draw very detailed points for himself.

Tsk, I suddenly miss him a little bit, I wonder how he is doing on the boat now?That big boy doesn't know if he will get seasick, he looks like a clean freak, and there is no fresh water on the boat to take a bath, so I don't know what he will be like?

Ye Xiaoyi laughed out loud after thinking about it, maybe Xiao Mo was scolding his slave with gritted teeth.The slave master treats the staff harshly...
