Su Chen?
Ying Zheng's eyes lit up. Thinking of Su Chen, he felt a little more confident.
That's right, if it was Su Chen, there was really a possibility of solving this matter!
It was a pity that it was a little awkward when they left yesterday, and Ying Zheng had just rejected Su Chen's invitation to become his disciple not long after.
It had only been a day, and he was going to ask again?
Hiss…
Even with the Ancestral Dragon's temperament, he felt a little awkward at this moment.
However, it was only a little awkward. The Ancestral Dragon was actually very thick-skinned…A person who respected the wise and respected the corporal!
During the war against Chu, Ying Zheng first rejected Wang Jian's request to lead 600,000 soldiers and sent Li Xin to attack Chu.
As a result, the young Li Xin almost had his head blown off and returned in defeat.
Ying Zheng did not hesitate at all. He ran to Wang Jian's old home, bowed deeply, and invited him out!
That was how he successfully defeated the Chu Country and unified the world!
He could take it up and let it go. Brother Zheng did a good job in this regard!
"Prepare the sedan chair and go find Master Su!"
Ying Zheng immediately called Wang Ben over to join them.
……
"Young master, today is the most glorious day of my life. You don't know how it feels to be the center of attention of the commoners!”
"Yes, yes, the head of the household is indeed powerful. Many people say that this is the means of the gods!”
"Right, right, right. Just now, many commoners surrounded us and asked how we did it?”
"Oh? Did you tell them?"
"I said, we said that if you want to learn, come to the World Chamber of Commerce.”
Old Li Ping puffed out his chest and said proudly. Su Chen also smiled and said,""Did anyone follow us?"
"Um…"
Old Li Ping's smile froze. He scratched his head and said,"
"No, they just came to ask and left after that…"
"Then why are you so happy?"
Su Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes at Old Liping, who smiled awkwardly.
"I'm happy that I've completed Young Master's task, hehe…"
"Go and get busy. Bring the cow over. We'll try plowing the courtyard behind the mansion and see how the curved shaft plow works.”
"Alright!"
Su Chen sighed and shook his head as he watched Old Li Ping leave in a hurry.
As expected, it was not easy to spread education in this day and age.
Originally, he thought that by showing off in public, he would be able to attract many people over and then use this to make a name for himself.
Who would have thought that they would be busy for nothing? The people only expressed some curiosity.
As for studying?
It didn't exist!
Wasn't it good to work?
Wasn't farming fragrant?
What was the use of studying?
Thinking about how the Hundred Schools of Philosophy had been around for so long in this era, other than a handful of schools, most of them had disappeared in the long river of history.
One could imagine that it was not an easy task to start a culture of spreading the people's wisdom.
"I was too hasty."
Su Chen muttered to himself. He was mentally prepared for such an outcome. There were only a few reasons.
Firstly, it was still a problem for the common people to have enough food and clothing. It was naturally very difficult to spread education and learning concepts.
Secondly, Su Chen's World Chamber of Commerce's reputation was too weak and their presence was too low to attract attention.
In short, if Confucius was still alive, a large number of people might have followed him.
This was reputation!
Today, Su Chen asked Old Li and the others to announce the name of the World Chamber of Commerce. His goal was also to strengthen his reputation!
Although the result was not satisfactory, the good thing was that it left a mark in the hearts of the people.
If Confucius could travel around the Zhou Country, he could also travel around the world and sow a little spark of civilization.
A single spark could start a prairie fire!
It was all Old Zhao's fault for not agreeing. Otherwise, with his help, it might have been much easier.
"This Old Zhao doesn't know what's good for him!"
Su Chen muttered to himself as he thought of this. He shook his head and was about to return to his room when a shout came from outside the door.
"Master Su, wait!"
"Hmm?"
Su Chen turned around and saw a carriage approaching, and the driver was none other than Wang Ben.
"Ta Ta Ta…"
The carriage stopped, and Wang Ben lifted the curtain to reveal Ying Zheng, who walked down slowly and looked at Su Chen with a bright smile,"
"Head Su, I missed you after not seeing you for a night.”
"Ahem, I don't miss you. Don't do this as a man. Tell me, what's the matter?”
Su Chen pulled a long face and did not give Ying Zheng a good look. The corners of the latter's mouth twitched, and he said without a hint of surprise,""Aren't you going to invite me in?"
"I'm busy inside, so I'm afraid I won't be free today.”Su Chen said truthfully.
He still had to experiment with the crops that he had just made, so he had no time to entertain Ying Zheng and Wang Ben.
Ying Zheng was stunned, as this was the first time he had come to the door that was rejected. Wang Ben, who was standing beside him, said,"
"Master Su, my master came here under the government's decree.”
"Official decree?"
"Isn't Xu Fu dead?" Su Chen raised his eyebrows. Why is the government looking for me?"
"Master Su, the County Governor of Ji Bei was very appreciative after he found out that you were the one who discovered Xu Fu's disaster.”
Ying Zheng looked at Su Chen with a smile, then pointed at a big wooden box that Wang Ben had taken out from the carriage and said,"
"I asked the county governor for credit, and the government specially rewarded Master Su with ten Yi coins to show Master Su's contribution!”
In this day and age, coins were gold. The unit was Yi, which was equivalent to twenty taels.
Ten yi was equivalent to two hundred taels of gold.
The top-tier coins were something that only the rich had. They were much more precious than the low-tier copper coins!
These were all the properties that Ying Zheng could find from the County Governor's Mansion for the time being, and he had specially brought them here to express his goodwill to Su Chen!!!
"Reward?"
Unexpectedly, Su Chen's face was filled with disdain. He took it and opened it, muttering,
"No matter what, I've saved so many lives. As expected of a county governor. This setup was too petty!”
Wang Ben was speechless.
Ying Zheng: "?!!"
