The outside world had been turned upside down, but the Peach Blossom Village was still as peaceful as ever. These days, Ying Zheng had been working in the arsenal. Although he was tired, the two of them enjoyed themselves.
As for Ying Shiman, she seemed to be hiding from Jian Heng for the past few days. Every time she saw Jian Heng, she would blush and then leave quickly. Jian Heng was really confused. He didn't know what had gone wrong with this girl.
"Village Chief Jian Heng, the two of us have already finished the children's lessons today. I wonder if we can enter the adult class?”
At night, Ying Zheng, who was eating around a table, thought for a long time, and finally decided to tell Jian Heng about this matter. He did not have much time left in Peach Blossom Village, and before he left, he still wanted to learn more.
"Adult class? "That's fine. We heard that both of you scored full marks in the test. I believe that both of you have already mastered the basic knowledge. It's fine for you to go to the adult class. However, the studies in the adult class are not as complicated as those in the kindergarten. If you want to learn something, I suggest that you study business. After all, both of you are businessmen. Once you learn the advanced business model, you will definitely make a lot of money when you go out.”
"Village chief, I still want to study politics.。。。”Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment, then said to Jian Heng. If he was really a businessman, then it was naturally possible for him to study commerce.
But he was not. Even if he had made up his mind to support merchants, there was no need for him to be proficient in traveling merchants.
"You want to study politics? Old Zhao, are you serious? You're a businessman. Could it be that you have plans to become an official?”
Jian Heng was stunned. He had studied politics in order to understand the thoughts of those officials.
If that was the case, then studying in the kindergarten was enough.
Now that they were already in the adult class, they still wanted to study politics?
"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from the village chief. Although I'm a businessman, my status is different from ordinary businessmen. Like Wu Shiluo and Ba Qing, I'm qualified to attend the court, so I want to know more about politics.”
"Damn, Old Zhao, you have such a big background?”
Jian Heng was shocked-who were Wu Shiluo and Ba Qing? One of them was doing business outside the Great Wall, providing warhorses for Great Qin, while the other had provided 80% of the mercury for Brother Zheng's tomb. It was because of this that even though they were merchants, they were able to provide and obtain the right to attend court meetings.
However, the two of them lived far away from Xianyang, so they had the same rights. However, Zhao Cheng was different.
This guy was a native of Xianyang. As long as he wanted to, he could enter the palace at any time.
If this was in the Qing Dynasty, he would definitely be a businessman with a red roof.
"Ke ke, my family's ancestors had made some contributions to the Qin country back then. Although my family's fortune has declined in my generation, His Majesty is still more mindful of old ties.”
Jian Heng nodded in understanding. He originally thought that Zhao Cheng was just a small peddler in Xianyang City. He did not expect that his background was actually so deep.、
No wonder he could have a martial arts general like Meng Shi. It turned out that he had connections in the palace.
"Alright, Old Zhao, since you've decided to study politics, I can't stop you. However, you have to be careful. Adult politics is different from kindergarten politics. Not only have you not heard of it, but it's also considered heresy to the outside world.”
Ying Zheng and Li Si were not frightened by Jian Heng's words. Why did Ying Zheng stay here? Wasn't it to learn the art of emperors, and politics was the art of emperors?
"By the way, Village Chief, you and my daughter have been together for the past few days.。。。。”
At the mention of Ying Shiman, Jian Heng felt a little depressed. He didn't seem to have offended her much recently, but why was she avoiding him every day as if she was a plague?
"I don't know what's going on with your daughter recently. Every time she sees me, she runs away like a rabbit seeing a wolf.”
Ying Zheng, who knew his daughter very well, knew that Ying Shiman was embarrassed by Jian Heng's words earlier, and had not recovered from it yet.
"Village Chief Jian Heng, what do you think of my daughter?”
Ying Zheng felt that it was necessary for him to mention this matter again. According to the condition of these two people, they would probably not even be able to hold hands in less than two years.
Jian Heng thought about it carefully and then replied,"
"Not bad. Not only is she beautiful, but she also has autonomy. Although her personality is a little unruly, she is kind by nature and is a good girl.”
In the beginning, Jian Heng thought that Ying Shiman was a spoiled and unruly young lady with a bad temper. However, after spending so much time with her, he realized that Ying Shiman was just a little impulsive when she did things. However, her personality was not bad.
Hearing Jian Heng's positive comments about his daughter, Ying Zheng was delighted. He immediately said to Jian Heng,"
"I see that the village chief hasn't married yet, and my daughter hasn't married either.。。。。”
"Not as good as what? Old Zhao, you want to marry your daughter to me?"
Jian Heng said half-jokingly. In his subconscious, he thought that Zhao Cheng was joking. His Peach Blossom Village had nothing. The currency was not circulated with the outside world. Who could marry their daughter here?
This was especially true for a big businessman like Old Zhao who had connections in the court. The first choice for his daughter to marry off was definitely the son of an official.
Although he was a village chief, in this era, the village chief was not an official of the imperial court. In other words, he was actually a nobody.
"I have such intentions. I wonder what Village Chief Jian Heng thinks.”
After spending many days with Jian Heng, Ying Zheng felt that he had to be more direct with Jian Heng, otherwise, this kid would think that he was joking with him.
"Your daughter is only 16 years old.”
Although he knew that people in ancient times got married at a young age, Jian Heng felt a sense of guilt for some reason.
"Village Chief, women in Great Qin usually get married at the age of 15.”Li Si urged anxiously.
"But…"
Jian Heng was still a little hesitant. The reason was that he was willing to marry someone else, but that didn't mean he was willing to marry her. He had only been with that girl for a long time.
"No buts, Village Chief Jian Heng. If you marry Miss, not only will our Old Master not ask you for betrothal gifts, but Miss will also have a dowry. It's worth a lot.”
"No betrothal gifts? A dowry? Marry her!"
