After hearing Jia Huan's words, Xue Baochai let go of his worries!
With Jia Huan’s words, her ten thousand taels of silver were not wasted!
So the three of them chatted and ate, and they didn’t separate until the afternoon!
After this incident, Jia Huan no longer needs to worry about the store!
Regarding the workshop on Zhuangzi outside the city, Jia Huan also went to see it with Zhao Guoji before!
The area of Zhuangzi is not small. There is a road leading to Yangzhou City next to it, and there is a small river next to it, which basically meets Jia Huan's requirements for workshop construction!
So Jia Huan ordered Lin Zhong to start building a workshop on Zhuangzi!
Because the fields in this village belong to the Lin family, the people in the village have no objections to Jia Huan building a workshop here!
However, they are a little worried that Jia Huan's construction of the workshop has taken up some land, and they will not have enough land to cultivate in the coming year.
Jia Huan has already made arrangements for this!
He plans to wait until the soap workshop is built and then give priority to hiring people from Zhuangzi to work in the workshop!
This finally makes the people in Zhuangzi less worried!
Of course, in order to keep the soap formula secret, those hired workers can only do the work of refining lard and boiling alkaline water!
The final mixing and saponification reaction was done by the slaves purchased by the Lin family!
However, Jia Huan does not have time to keep track of the workshop. After all, his main task now is to study!
Therefore, as Jia Huan’s only confidant, Zhao Guoji was entrusted with important tasks. He often went to soap workshops and stores to help Jia Huan collect accounts or do some supervision work!
After all, as the major shareholder of the workshop and shop, Jia Huan still has to arrange for one or two of his confidants!
Because of the ten thousand taels of silver that Xue Baochai gave him, Jia Huan is now considered a rich man.
So he also bought dozens of slaves and managed his business with Zhao Guoji!
In addition to studying the classics with Lin Ruhai, Jia Huan also used his free time to research some new products for Baizhenfang!
In this way, another two years passed quickly. At this time, Jia Huan had stayed in Yangzhou for three full years!
That day, Jia Huan heard that Lin Ruhai was looking for him, so he entered Lin Ruhai's study!
Jia Huan is exactly 10 years old at this time!
He is much taller than two years ago, but he is still just a child less than 1.5 meters tall, but his eyebrows have gradually grown, and he has a faint heroic spirit.
Because it was already November, Jia Huan also put on a thick cotton jacket!
You must know that in this era,It is much colder than later generations. Although Yangzhou is already a southern place, it is still very cold in winter!
Just a few days ago, it snowed here in Yangzhou!
Jia Huan took off his thick coat, handed it to a maid waiting outside the study, and went straight into Lin Ruhai's study!
At this time, Lin Ruhai's study had already lit up the heater, and it was very warm!
Lin Ruhai saw Jia Huan coming in and said with a smile:
"Huan'er, come over and warm yourself up by the fire!"
Jia Huan heard Lin Ruhai's call. , came to a small stove next to Lin Ruhai and started a fire!
Within two minutes, my body gradually warmed up.
Jia Huan moved his body and asked Lin Ruhai:
"Teacher, do you know what you want from me?"
See Looking at Jia Huan, who had reached her shoulders, Lin Ruhai said with a smile:
"Brother Huan, you have been here with me for three years, right?"
"I wonder if you have missed your relatives in Beijing in the past three years!"
After hearing Lin Ruhai's words, Jia Huan really missed his mother, Aunt Zhao!
You must know that although Jia Huan did not get along with Aunt Zhao for a long time, Aunt Zhao was really kind to him!
I haven’t been back for three years, so Aunt Zhao must miss me very much!
But he came to Yangzhou to study. Even if he missed Aunt Zhao, he couldn't go back easily!
Otherwise, Jia Huan really doesn’t know if he can come back after he goes back!
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
So he nodded and said:
"I really miss my parents in Beijing!"
"But Huan'er knows that studies are important and doesn't dare to waste time here. On these matters!"
Lin Ruhai was very satisfied after hearing what Jia Huan said.
One good thing about Jia Huan is that he hardly needs Lin Ruhai, a teacher, to worry about his studies!
Jia Huan can complete the homework assigned by him on time!
And Jia Huan is also very smart. Jia Huan can quickly learn what I teach him!
And when he found Jia Huan today, he also felt that Jia Huan had accomplished his studies and it was time to go back and take the exam to become a scholar!
So he smiled and said to Jia Huan:
"Huan'er, the reason why I called you here today!"
"I want to discuss it with you. For a moment, why don't you go back to the capital and take the exam to become a scholar before you come back!"
"I feel that with your ability, you should have no problem taking the exam to be a scholar!"
"And! You have been coming to my place for 3 years, it is also timeGo back and see your parents! "
Jia Huan was slightly startled when he heard Lin Ruhai's words.
But when he thought about it carefully, he realized that he had studied with Lin Ruhai for three years. During these three years, Jia Huan studied hard. Even Lin Ruhai praised Jia Huan for his good understanding!
Lin Ruhai taught Jia Huan everything he could. Before, Lin Ruhai even gave Jia Huan a test!
Jia Huan’s answer is also very good!
From Lin Ruhai’s perspective, with Jia Huan’s current strength, there is no problem at all in taking the exam! No chance!
After hearing Lin Ruhai’s words, Jia Huan thought about it and said:
“Then Huan’er will obey the teacher’s arrangements! "
"I'm going back to the capital right now! ”
“Wait until I finish the government examination and then come back and continue studying with the teacher!” ”
Jia Huan also considered the situation of the Jia family. If he could pass the scholar examination earlier, his status in the Jia family would be slightly improved!
Although it may not necessarily be the case in the Jia family. He has the right to speak, but if he does well in the exam, the government will pay more attention to him!
So Jia Huan decided to go back and get the title of scholar first!
Seeing that Jia Huan did not refuse his arrangement, Lin Ruhai also smiled and said:
"Okay! good! good! ”
“Teacher believes in your ability, so it shouldn’t be a problem to win the title of scholar!” ”
“Since you have decided to go back, take the water route back before the canal is frozen! "
"Just in time, a batch of tax money has arrived in the capital in the past two days! "
"It will be safer if you follow them! "
After hearing Lin Ruhai's words, Jia Huan nodded and said:
"Thank you, teacher! "
Hearing what Jia Huan said, Lin Ruhai was very satisfied and asked him to clean up in the next two days and return to the capital three days later with the cargo ship escorting the tax money!
So after returning , Jia Huan started to pack his things!
Although Jia Huan returned to the capital this time just to take part in the county examination and the prefectural examination, it would take at least half a year, and Jia Huan still had a lot of things to bring back. !
In addition, I haven’t been back for several years, so I should buy something for my mother Aunt Zhao and Jia Zheng this time!
And the sisters at home, Jia Huan, too! Prepare a gift for them!
So Jia Huan said to Xiaohuan who was waiting outside:
"Xiaohuan, go and call Jia Ping and Jia An! ”
