A group of people arrived at the rented house.
"This place isn't very big, but it's big enough for us to live in. Big houses are no longer available, and this small yard is only available to us because the rent is too high and no one is willing to rent it."
Zhao Xiaoyu was curious about how high the rent could be, "Dad, how much silver did you pay for the rent?"
"It's ten taels a month. I rented it for two months because he rented it for two months."
Mrs. Song and the teacher gasped at the same time. Forty taels was just for two months' accommodation, which was indeed extremely expensive.
"Dad, it's right to rent. We have to rent it for thirty taels a month. It's so beautiful to live here. The inn is so noisy with people coming and going. Although the yard is not big, it is not too small. The house is spacious. There is also a well in the yard. It's not bad, it's a good deal."
The teacher's mouth twitched. Dashu's daughter had another advantage, she liked to talk nonsense. This price was obviously a rip-off, and the target was the students who came to take the imperial examination this year. Some people in the city were really not kind.
However, the student's family was rich, so as long as they were happy, he would do whatever they wanted. He enjoyed himself very much along the way.
"It's really nice here, Dashu. You guys can take a rest for half a day today, and we will continue studying tomorrow."
He was greatly inspired by the discussion of the students on the exam questions he heard in the inn just now, and decided to go to the inn again in the afternoon to listen.
Come back in the evening to prepare questions and give them to do tomorrow.
In the future, when they are doing their homework and he has free time, he should go to the inn more often to listen, after all, a person's thinking is limited.
The people who followed immediately set about cleaning the yard and packing their bags, and two of them went out to buy some groceries. An hour later, the small courtyard where they were temporarily staying was completely new, and lunch was prepared in the kitchen.
Zhao Xiaoyu looked around the courtyard. The houses in the capital were much more valuable than those in the county. Such a small courtyard could earn forty taels just for two months of examinations. The owner dared to offer this price, which meant that he had been able to rent it at this price before.
Think about her house in the county town...
You have to buy a house in the provincial capital. In the future, you can only buy houses in big cities. Only big cities have investment value.
I don’t know how much money the small courtyard I rent now can be sold for. She should have followed when renting the house today.
"You guys take a rest for a while. I'm going to the inn to listen to the students discussing the exam questions. I might be back late. Don't wait for me at dinner."
"Thank you for your hard work, Master."
Zhao Xiaoyu also felt that he was a serious and responsible teacher, and could be said to be diligent, but he was a bit pedantic, which was a common problem among scholars, and they were stubborn and stubborn.
After the meal, everyone except the teacher went for a nap.
"Xiaoyu, Master, it's rare for us to come. We are all very tired from the journey. I'm sure he is too. He didn't even have time to lie down for a nap before he passed away."
"Dad, look how much the Master cares about you."
"So I won't be a wife in the future. The money I earn is not enough to support my wife."
Zhao Xiaoyu: ...
The Master went to the downstairs of the largest inn in the city. This time he came prepared. He not only brought ears but also pen and ink. His memory was not as good as a bad pen, so it would always be a good idea to write it down.
The sun is setting.
"Master hasn't come back yet?" Zhao Dashu went to sleep all afternoon and woke up naturally, but Xiao Lei seemed still asleep.
"Not yet. Should we eat first or wait for him?"
"Eat first. The stove is warm. You don't know how scary people are when they are studying. They forget the time when they are so absorbed in their studies. Besides, there is food in the inn. You won't starve."
"Then let's have dinner, Dad. From now on, Master should bring someone with him when he goes out to the inn. It's quite dangerous for a weak scholar like him to walk on the street at night."
"Puff!" Zhao Dashu choked, "Will there be anyone who would pick Cai Xi? If anyone wants to pick someone, then don't pick him!"
"Recently, the city is full of students from all over the country, and it's very chaotic. It's always better to be careful. He is a future juren master."
"Okay, I'll talk to him tomorrow."
