When Chu Ci returned to his residence, there was a light inside, and the warm yellow candlelight shone out from the window, making people feel warm.

"Brother Jing, I didn't expect you to come back earlier than me." Chu Ci got off the carriage and said loudly as he walked in.

Three pairs of eyes in the room looked at him together, and Chu Ci was shocked. Are there so many people?

Kou Jing looked at the two followers with a dark face. He was just going to give some instructions and was entangled. When he heard that he was coming here, the two of them insisted on following him.

"Second Brother Chu."/"Uncle Shi."

The other two greeted Chu Ci with a smile, and Chu Ci also responded with a reflexive look.

"Brother Ci, please sit down and rest for a while. I brought some wine and food to the kitchen."

"Dahu, have you heard it? Pack up the wine and food and bring it up." After sitting down, Chu Ci shouted outside.

"Okay." Zhang Hu replied.

Chu Ci turned around, looked at Qin Zhao and Xu Qiaonan, and asked, "How can you two little soldiers go everywhere?"

"Why can't we not? We live in the Ministry of War inn. Compared with other inns, it's really hard to describe. We slept in big beds, twenty people in one room, and took off their shoes at night. It smelled like that.

It's so fucked, I want to vomit. Uncle Shi, you must let me stay with you for a few days." Xu Qiaonan set off firecrackers and poured bitterness into his stomach.

"Can you live outside alone?" Chu Ci was a little curious. Isn't it a military order?

"We Shangguan live here, so we can just treat each other with the personal guards." Xu Qiaonan laughed and said, it seemed that he had made up his mind to live here.

"But, my yard is relatively small, with only three bedrooms. One of me, one of Dahu, and one of Brother Jing. Where do you two live?"

Zhang Hu was putting the vegetables on the table, and then he heard this and said, "Master, then I'll go to the kitchen to sleep. Leave the room for the two young masters."

"I'm so mean that how can I live in the kitchen? Don't move around. If it really doesn't work, let them build a floor shop in my room."

"Brother Ci, I'll sleep with you. Let them go to my room to sleep." Kou Jing immediately proposed a solution.

"It's OK-"

"No! Uncle Shi, I'll sleep with you, I won't sleep with him."

Kou Jing glared at him and said, "Abide by the order."

"It's not in the military camp now..." Xu Qiaonan's muttering voice became smaller and smaller under Kou Jing's stare, and finally accepted his fate.

The two were fighting secretly, but Chu Ci was having a lot of fun chatting with Qin Zhao.

"...Tell me, how did you enter the military camp?" Chu Ci was still particularly interested in this dramatic coincidence.

"Hey, that's actually the case. My uncle and I went to a business trip and walked through a mountain road. Wearing a group of people, we saw a fight. While wearing official uniforms, we looked fierce and evil. I knew we should be suppressing bandits.

I pulled out the arrow and shot it, and injured the thief's hand that swung his knife. Finally, they were very grateful to me and told my uncle that I was talented and should be a soldier. My uncle has always been

I felt that I was hunting dangerously, so I agreed immediately when I met someone who was willing to ask me for it.”

Qin Zhao said a long story short and explained the whole story of his joining the army.

"So that's it. Seeing unfairness on the road, I draw my sword to help you. Brother Qin, your chivalrous heart is still as good as before." Chu Ci praised.

"Where are there." Qin Zhao smiled embarrassedly.

"Brother Ci, the wine and food are already hot. Let's have a meal first and then talk about it later." Kou Jing took the opportunity to remind him in time.

Kou Jing bought a lot of things and set up a large table. While Chu Ci was feasting, he inevitably remembered the people from Tzu Chia again, so he shared his experiences with them today.

"So there are such miserable people, I thought they were just written in the book." Xu Qiaonan sighed very much.

"You young master, you either take a car or sit in a sedan when you go out. How can you see the sufferings of the world?" Qin Zhao felt it was fine. His parents died early and the coldness of the world had experienced it early.

"You know, okay." Xu Qiaonan rolled his eyes to him, then turned his head to Chu Ci and said, "Uncle Shi, when I went out, my grandmother gave me two silver notes, and I had everything in the military camp.

You don’t have to spend money, just buy some things for me and give them to the people from Tzu Chi.”

He took out a purse from his body, and there were two wrinkled silver notes, a total of two hundred taels.

"I have received your feelings for them. You have to stay in the capital for a while, so how can you not leave a penny? I already have a way to help them. After all, it is better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish."

"What's the solution? Uncle Shi, please tell me quickly." Xu Qiaonan was very curious.

"There are many women and children in the Tzu Chi, and everyone has a pair of skilled hands. I wonder if I can draw some pictures for them and make some weird toys. At that time, Jinyi should be more than they sew torn clothes.

"Chu Ci proposed his own ideas, and he was observing them all afternoon.

The women were not too old, and they were very skillful in sewing and basically couldn't see any trace. For example, they would only earn a penny if they sewed these clothes. They sat there all afternoon, staring at them quickly with their eyes.

If you are blind, you can only make a few meat buns. This money is invested in the daily expenses of the Tzu Chia Yuan in a blink of an eye. Compared with the huge expenses, this amount of money is a drop in the bucket.

"I think I have been thinking about it for a long time. This method is very good. At that time, I can sell their things in my shop." Kou Jing suggested.

"Brother Jing, do you have a shop in the capital?" Don't most of their businesses be in Ganzhou Prefecture?

"Yes, it is the ancestral property inherited by my father, but not many, just three or four families. It was my sister who was in charge of it before, and since her death, she has moved to my name."

Seeing Kou Jing not saying much lightly, when he was just three or four families, Chu Ci couldn't help but shed tears of poverty. This is the capital, and remote areas like Wenxingfang cost seven taels of silver a month.

Rent, shops outside are even more expensive.

Chu Ci actually secretly investigated the housing prices in the capital, thinking that it would be best if he had a house. The house that Zhang family gave him was surrounded by a two-entry yard in the county town, and the price was about 220 yuan.

It takes between 260 taels.

The same size yard in the capital city fluctuates between about 2,200 and 300 taels. Compared with a small county in the 18th tier, the housing prices in the capital city have increased by about ten times, which is reasonable. This is not too expensive, but

As for Chu Ci's salary, you can afford it in about three years without eating or drinking.

Just like the saying that modern people often say: It is not its shortcomings, but your shortcomings. Chu Ci sometimes wants to get some side job subsidies, but it has never been suitable, so he has to give up.

...

At the same time, in Yuanshan County, about two or three thousand miles away from the capital, the Chu family was gathering together to talk. The place where they lived was the two yards given to Chu Ci by the Zhang family, and the ones in front of the house and behind the house were added together.

There are about a dozen rooms.

"Oh, I don't know how the waiter is in the capital." Chu's mother hugged Chu Shanshan and patted her carefully, but her eyes looked out the window, as if she wanted to see the capital all the time.

"Mom, he must be fine when he waiter. Didn't you hear the county magistrate speak with your own eyes a few days ago? He won the top scorer and can you still go to see the emperor! What a blessing this is!"

Chu Guang remembered the scene when the county magistrate brought people to Changxi Village five days ago and told them the good news. He was still a little excited now!

It turned out that the county magistrate, who only heard the name, felt weak, was so kind. He was also polite to his mother to call the old lady.

The county magistrate said that if the waiter wins the top scorer, he will stay in the capital to be a high-ranking official. After the news was announced, many people will come to invite them recently. In order to facilitate the banquet, they will be asked to move to the county town for a while.

On the first night they moved into the county town, Master Qin came to the door. He first expressed his joy for Chu Ci's winning the top scholar, and then sat down and taught them some things that needed attention when attending the banquet.

Of course, the most important thing is to remind them not to agree to those people's requests. No matter what, they cannot let go of their promises, so that they can use Chu Ci's fame to do some messy things.

The Chu family listened very seriously, which was related to Chu Ci's reputation. Chu Ci became the top scholar, and as a family member, they did not help him at all. The only thing they could guarantee was that they could not hold him back.
