Chapter 232: Lying to Make Money (Monthly Pass)
Chen Kaizhi looked at Yang Xiao, still looking calm.
But... Could it be that this guy came to find fault again because he didn't make things difficult for him last time?
At this time, Yang Xiao said, "It is said that Senior Brother Chen has entered the Heavenly Man List, which is a great congratulation. Brother Yu admires Senior Brother Chen's knowledge very much, but last time I saw Senior Brother Chen was very strong and wanted to compete with you."
Chen Kaizhi only smiled. Such martial artists are actually the best brave and fierce. He really guessed correctly. It seems that the last time he helped Wu Yan, this guy has been thinking about him.
Without Chen Kaizhi's approval, Yang Xiao had already taken the hard bow he carried casually, shouted, and took the Langya arrow from the quiver pot, pulled the bow, put the arrow, and slap the strings, and completed it in one go.
In an instant, the arrow was like a meteor and directly penetrated the red heart of the target.
I think Yang Xiao’s archery skills are also famous in the Martial Arts Academy. When the martial artists saw this, they all cheered.
The students of Wenchang Academy were all shocked and became more awe of Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao looked as if no one else was around. He looked at Chen Kaizhi. Although he had a smile on his face, he looked provocative and said, "How about it, give it a try?"
Chen Kaizhi smiled, but put away his bow and bowed to Yang Xiao: "I am far inferior to my senior brother's archery skills, so I will not be ugly."
Yang Xiao was a little angry. This guy was so angry that he was helpless to Chen Kaizhi, because this guy was a person on the list of heaven and man. He was afraid that he would hold him in the entire academy. Although he was born in a wealthy family, he still did not dare to take the blame for the world.
Yang Xiao was naturally a little unwilling to give up, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "What, don't you dare?"
Chen Kaizhi didn't think about it and answered him simply: "I dare not."
Well……
Yang Xiao was a little confused.
It is said that young people should be young and energetic. If you provoke a few words, your blood will suddenly surge. Where can you admit that you don’t dare?
At this time, the gentleman walked forward and sternly said, "Yang Xiao, don't be rude."
Yang Xiao had no choice but to lead his classmates away in disappointment.
The gentleman said to Chen Kaizhi: "I saw you holding an arrow just now, and my posture was lacking, but it was just like a look. Come here."
The gentleman seemed to be quite interested in Chen Kaizhi and even smiled at Chen Kaizhi.
Chen Kaizhi hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Sir, please give me advice."
The gentleman nodded and said again: "Many people shoot arrows, only seeking postures. What did the gentleman do, and he also learns to do. It seems to be quite good, but it is actually a big mistake. I ask you, why do you need to shoot arrows with shooting postures?"
Chen Kaiyi was speechless.
The gentleman smiled and said, "It is to shoot arrows in the most energy-saving way, and it is also to balance your body in the most stable way, without deviations in the process of shooting. Therefore, the essence of the shooting posture is not what postures to do, but how to balance your body with the best posture."
Chen Kaizhi laughed in silence and nodded quickly.
The gentleman said again: "So the shooting posture is dead. Because people have different heights and different fatness and thinness, the reason why I use the unified shooting posture to make you shoot arrows is just to save worry. You can try it yourself and see how to shoot arrows, which is the most labor-saving, comfortable, and the most stable of your body."
Chen Kaizhi suddenly realized that the trick of archery was here. It seemed that the so-called martial arts were all deceptive. Damn, everyone is different, their height, weight and even strength were different. How could it be possible to just rely on a so-called secret book and follow it?
No wonder this archery and horse technique requires one-on-one teaching by famous teachers to become successful.
Chen Kaizhi took the bow and adjusted his posture several times in succession. The gentleman didn't talk much, but just watched with a smile.
It seemed that he had found a delicate balance. Chen Kaizhi tried to draw the bow. Sure enough, this way of pulling the bow was much more stable for him, as if the bow in his hand was no longer just a tool, but became more handy and integrated with his body.
I don’t know if this gentleman was not sure if Chen Kaizhi was on the list, he ignored his other classmates, but he spent an entire afternoon teaching some key points of ejaculation to Chen Kaizhi.
Chen Kaizhi's temperament is really good at doing things. He carefully recorded what his teacher taught and tried it after trying it out. Sure enough, he was much more skillful than the so-called "archery technique" he mastered by relying on his huge physical advantages before.
When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Chen Kaizhi bowed to the gentleman and said, "Sir, have you bothered."
The gentleman stroked his beard and said, "You are a very smart person, and you are also careful. If I teach these things to others, even if I say they are talking, they will not be able to understand them."
Chen Kaizhi smiled, but he had a little more respect for this gentleman. It seemed that this gentleman had taught him sincerely.
What this gentleman said is true. He is not smart. After all, he is a scholar and has long had a set of logic for reading, so his ability to accept and understand is extremely impressive. On the other hand, although those martial artists have been practicing martial arts since childhood and learned archery and horses, they are not good at summarizing and summarizing scholars, and they cannot inspire thinking. It will definitely take a lot of effort to teach.
Chen Kaizhi looked at the gentleman gratefully. He knew that he was not a martial artist in the martial arts academy. The so-called archery class was not the teacher's responsibility. What he had to do was just teach some superficial things, and there was no need to worry like this.
The classmates had already scattered, and only Wu Yan and a few were still waiting for Chen Kaizhi to leave school together. Chen Kaizhi bowed to the gentleman again, just about to say goodbye.
But the gentleman said, "Why, I've been studying for a whole afternoon, don't you want to try an arrow?"
"Uh..." Chen Kaizhi shook his head and smiled, "No need, just know the secret. Try again next time. Sharpening a knife will not delay the chopping of wood."
"Haha." The gentleman couldn't help laughing loudly, "Okay, go."
"Sir, see you."
The days of studying in the academy are always fulfilling, and Chen Kaizhi even likes the life in the academy more and more.
The only trouble at the moment is money. He wants to build his own study in the palace, a study covering an area of 300 acres. It is exciting to think about it. If possible, Chen Kaizhi is even willing to open up another vegetable garden, grow vegetables, raise some chickens and ducks. His ancestral skills and talents cannot be lost.
Thinking of this, Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but feel happy.
The only thing that is difficult now is money.
Chen Kaizhi went to the capital to buy and sell the salt, but he didn't ask about it, and he didn't know how much profit it was.
He returned to his senior brother's house, Deng Jian was waiting for him on the porch, muttering with paper and pen in his hand. When he saw Chen Kaizhi come back, he muttered and wrote down: "My junior brother Wu Shi left school at a moment, which shows that he is still hardworking, and his character is flawed, and he is still good at studying..."
Chen Kaizhi said to Deng Jian: "Senior brother, don't write anymore, how about it in Hanlin?"
Deng Jian collected the paper and pen and said, "It's not bad, I'll sort out the actual records in the Chinese History Museum of the Academy."
Chen Kaizhi nodded. He knew that this was a good job. Among the Hanlin people, the most popular one was Guanzhao, equivalent to the secretary of the emperor. In the previous world, he was called the pen and the National History Museum. The main responsibility for sorting out the records, but don’t think that this is just a simple librarian. In fact, this era attaches great importance to classics and history. On the surface, it is to make you sort out the national history, but in fact, it is to deepen your understanding of classics and history. This is a reserved senior cadre and its future is unlimited.
After several days of continuous development, the weather gradually became hotter, and finally, the letter from the Xun family came.
This time, it was not just a letter from the family, but a person who conveyed the letter was a head of the Xun family. He led a few people to the capital from Jinling to the capital. When he saw Chen Kaizhi, he hurriedly saluted as if he had seen his master, "I have met my son-in-law."
Now Chen Kaizhi and Miss Xun's family have not yet married, so the word "Son-in-law" should not be called, but obviously, Chen Kaizhi was willing to accept it. He invited someone to his wing room, and there was no small hall in the courtyard. He asked him to sit down and asked, "What's the matter now in Jinling?"
The head of the matter was Zheng Dong. When he saw that he was a person with good human feelings, he immediately understood what Chen Kaizhi meant: "My wife invited the villain to come just to bring a message. Everything was fine in Jinling. No one was here to serve him. So according to the instructions of his son-in-law, he had already gone to the royal palace and Yicui Building and asked for both girls. However, they were female relatives and walked slowly. It would take some time to arrive. As for my son-in-law's salt workshop, it is not just sold in Jinling. Many salt merchants in nearby prefectures and counties are urging us to ask for goods. When my son-in-law left Jinling, my wife had already expanded production. Now it has a huge profit. After one month, the profit is considerable. The wife said that the money my son-in-law temporarily sent to the Xun family in the past few months has reached more than 20,000 taels. When my son-in-law needs it, he can withdraw it at any time."
Chen Kaizhi was stunned.
More than 20,000 taels of silver...
This is awesome, the salt is really... huge profits.
In fact, Chen Kaizhi was very mentally prepared because fine salt was almost crushed to coarse salt. As long as the salt was refined, there was no need to worry about no sales. But even so, he misjudged the power of this fine salt.
He thought that this fine salt would be very popular, but he didn't expect that when Jinling just started selling fine salt, it became popular all of a sudden.
In fact, this is normal. After all, the coarse salt is really unpalatable. Moreover, although the price of fine salt is a little more expensive, it does not take too much effort to put the sauce into the dish. Instead, it only adds salt, which is even more delicious. In this way, it saves people the money for the sauce.
