The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 21 Name
The next day.

Everything was almost the same as usual, except that the Mongolian boy in the school became more intimate when he saw him.

The villagers of Bailu Village would greet him warmly when they saw him.

"I just look at Guiwazi, who can read. I used to herd sheep with Erdan from our family. Guiwazi is the best one, and the sheep are the strongest..."

"Although this child is young, his future is limitless."

"Maybe Bailu Village can produce another scholar, even if there is no scholar, he can still work as a decent accountant in the town, which is also a credit to our village!"

"Damn, Ewazi went to school two years earlier than Guiwazi, why didn't he learn 01:30 with Guiwazi, he got dizzy after going home and read for a while, and said he wanted to go out to play, so he couldn't calm down..."

Bai Gui also returned salutes to the villagers who praised him one after another, not daring to show any arrogance.

If there are rumors that he disrespects his parents, his reputation will be ruined. Not to mention that Mr. Xu will teach him seriously, I am afraid he will be kicked out.

A person's reputation in the village is very important.

During the reign of Kangxi in the previous dynasty, it was rumored that there was a person who was able to win the top five classics in the provincial examination. The name fell to Sun Shan.

……

Before noon school, Meng Tong, who had gone back to eat from various homes, came to the school one after another.

The faces of the Lu brothers turned ashen.

Hearing the qin, one can know the elegant meaning.

Bai Gui knew that it should be Bai Youde who asked Lu Zilin to resign this morning.

For Lu Zilin to be so generous in wanting to subsidize his education, there should be the intercession of the Lu brothers, otherwise ordinary people would not have the willpower to make such a determination.

Raising a full-time scholar is no small matter these days.

As far as Shuxiu is concerned, Xu Xiucai received Shuxiu once every three months, and once was five liters of grain, which was consistent with the price of nearby private schools.In this way, two buckets of grain are needed for one year.

In the late Qing Dynasty, there were no improved seeds and no chemical fertilizers, and the yield per mu of land was around four buckets.

But this is just the harvest.

More than [-]% of the land tax must be paid!

In order to consolidate the rule, Kangxi announced the implementation of a new tax system in the 51st year of Kangxi, and announced the implementation of a new tax system. Based on the number of people in the country in the 50th year of Kangxi, the fixed tax amount will be added in the future, and no more will be collected. It is called " In the prosperous age, we will never add gifts."

In the first year of Yongzheng, Yongzheng also implemented the "Talk into Mu".More than 335 million taels of Dingyin from the Kangxi Dynasty were all allocated to the land tax silver for collection.Di Ding He Yi, Ding Sui Di Pai.

Later emperors used more and more, and did not dare to violate the laws of their ancestors, so they tampered with taxes. Land taxes were not added, but various corvee and miscellaneous taxes could be increased.

Since the Guangxu Dynasty’s defeat in the Sino-Japanese War and the invasion of China by the Eight-Power Allied Forces, according to the Treaty of Shimonoseki, 4.5 million taels of silver must be paid.There is also the Xin Chou Treaty, which requires the powers to pay [-] million taels of silver.The annual treasury income of the Qing court is about [-] million taels of silver.

As for the [-] million taels of indemnity in the Xin Chou Treaty, it was even declared in the treaty that every Qing countryman would be punished with a compensation of one tael.These moneys are collected from every household by Jiachang in various places. Because they are in the year of Gengzi, they are also called Geng's money.In addition, since Zhang Juzheng's whipping method, people have paid taxes with silver.

After going back and forth, even if there are a few acres of Susukida, it can barely cover food and drink. It is simply not something ordinary people can afford to support a full-time scholar.

And Bai Youde's resignation was an invisible refutation of the Lu brothers' affection, that's why they were so angry.

What surprised Bai Gui was that the Lu brothers had maintained their bearing until now, and they didn't speak ill of him or get angry.Simply speaking, this kind of character is far superior to that of his peers. At least Bai Gui asked himself, he can't do this at this age.

He sighed inwardly.

Although he didn't intend to accept Lu Zilin's funding, he also accepted the Lu family's love invisibly.

This is eh, you have to admit it!

"Zhaopeng, Zhaohai..."

Bai Gui took a breath and mustered up his courage.It was not what he wanted to see causing a stalemate with the Lu Brothers.

Taking a ten thousand step back, if other people see that he and the Lu brothers are lukewarm, they will probably slander him in their hearts as to whether he is worth associating with.

A few gossips are often enough to destroy a person.

He took out the two volumes of books he had borrowed from his schoolbag, stepped forward, and held the books in his hands. He had already copied these two elementary school books with new paper, and he could read them all the time.

He said with a slightly apologetic tone: "These two beginner books have been read almost a few days ago, but I still want to read more, so I returned it late, and please don't blame the two of you."

The Lu brothers were stunned for a moment.

The enlightenment books they borrowed were all learned a few years ago, and they have stopped reading them for a long time, so when they lent them to Bai Gui, they did not stipulate a return time.

So expensive...

Lu Zhaopeng was in a daze for a moment, and when Bai Gui called him by his scientific name instead of Eldest Young Master, he lost his mind for a moment, and soon the depression in his heart dissipated.

Soon, a smile appeared on his face again, and he probably understood something in his heart.

Although he followed Zi Gong's answer to Confucius in "Gong Ye Chang" in the Analects, "May the chariots and horses wear light fur, and share with friends, it is nothing rare."

Therefore, he and his younger brother Lu Zhaohai can persuade his father Lu Zilin to fund Bai Gui's studies.

But Baigui is just like the three friends who benefited from what Confucius said, he does not flatter him, nor does he stop interacting with him just because he stares angrily...

"It's right to stay a little longer, the two of us have already passed the enlightenment stage."

Lu Zhaopeng's expression softened a lot, and his heart knot was opened. He put away the book casually, but when he saw the two neat volumes in his hand, he was a little dazed.

The two enlightenment books lent out are quite old.

The Lu family has a lot of money. Although they are not as rich as the rich families in the city, they can be regarded as a wealthy family in Zishui County.Therefore, although following the principle of scholars cherishing books, the preservation of these two volumes is okay, but some pages are inevitably creased and warped.

But the two volumes of books that Bai Gui returned were neat and brand new. If it wasn't for the yellowing of the volumes that showed that they were not new books, he would have suspected that they were newly bought books by Bai Gui, and then returned them to him again.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Lu Zhaohai was younger, and suddenly felt that Lu Zhaopeng had betrayed him, how could he reconcile with this ungrateful villain.But he would not dismantle Lu Zhaopeng's platform face to face, he just reminded him in a low voice.

"I'll explain it to you later."

Lu Zhaopeng interrupted Lu Zhaohai, and smiled apologetically at Bai Gui.

If it was said that before he was only thinking about the friendship between Bai Gui and him when they were young, but now he has really regarded Bai Gui as a good friend worth making.

　Thank you Liuliubuer for the 600 starting coins, and Shiriyue for the 50 starting coins.Yesterday I took a look at the recommendation tickets, and there were more than [-] recommendation tickets, so let’s add one more tomorrow.
