    Facts have proved Fang Bingsheng's vision: the person who refuses to cut his braids is a good coachman.

    Zhou Hengfu did a good job. He was energetic and had a good eye. Although at the beginning, he was too energetic and pulled the cart too fast, which often caused Fang Bingsheng to get bumpy on the dirt road. However, he quickly learned to navigate the bumpy places.  Slow down the car to make the man sitting behind him more comfortable.

    And he really cherished the opportunity to serve the master from the capital: when it rained and the sun was bright, he held an umbrella to protect Fang Bingsheng from the sun and rain; when there was a conflict with the locals, he knew how to use the glove box to  He took out sticks and distributed them to everyone, and always took one himself. Then he stood next to Fang Bingsheng with a stern look on his face. It wasn't that he didn't dare to start a group fight or pretend to be brave, but that he wanted to protect Fang Bingsheng. He would howl at anyone who dared to get close to Fang Bingsheng.  Knock the opponent down and show no mercy.

    Zhou Hengfu¡¯s two bastards are also good. The phrase ¡°poor children will become masters early¡± is bullshit. The truth is that ¡°poor children who don¡¯t know how to be masters will starve to death long ago¡± or ¡°will do anything to make a living¡±. Both of them are  The 7-year-old and 4-year-old sons left early with the construction site kitchen. They did a good job in washing vegetables, washing dishes, and cooking. They earned two cents a month.

    Soon, Fang Bingsheng began to call Zhou Hengfu "Lao Zhou", and Zhou Hengfu also changed his name to Fang Bingsheng as "boss". From then on, he regarded Lao Zhou as his personal coachman, and took his loyal coachman "Lao Zhou" with him when he went back to Haijing to do business.  Later, due to the explosive development of telegraph and railway industries, Fang Bingsheng bought a small courtyard near Song You's headquarters within the city wall. He needed servants.  What could be better than Zhou Hengfu's family who know everything, easy to use, cheap, and loyal.

    So two years later, the "Lao Zhou" in Bingsheng's mouth became "Ah Fu", and the "boss" in Zhou Hengfu's mouth also became a more considerate "master". Fang Bingsheng asked him to be his full-time coachman.  The eldest son Zhou Lizai works as a kitchen boy, and Zhou Quanzai, who is similar in age to his eldest son, works as his son's book boy. The whole family becomes his servants, which is trust and a kind of praise;

    In response to this, Zhou Hengfu¡¯s family, a family of three sleeping in the kitchen, was extremely grateful.  In Zhou Hengfu¡¯s eyes.  He had long forgotten the bad things like being beaten, having his land forcibly bought, and even his wife dying. He would only ask himself who changed their lives: who brought their family from bankrupt and unemployed peasants in the countryside to the capital, and from coolies to decent people.  His servants wear well-fitting clothes every day.  From the father to the sons, everyone not only wears tops, but also has linings and cloth shoes.  Even Western socks - only the noble man in life - Fang Bingsheng - Mr. Fang.

    "Just bring a country man to the city."  It's not enough for him to thank you: Countless homeless people are waiting to be hired every day in areas such as Haijing's Changshou Temple and Shiligou.

    Zhou Hengfu was extremely grateful to Fang Bingsheng. In addition to being very polite and kind to his servants, Fang Bingsheng also changed the fate of his two sons.  It is not appropriate to say that they have turned from being stepped on mud into superior people, but without Mr. Fang, they would not have this opportunity.

    The thing is this: In 1864, Fang Bingsheng's eldest son Fang Bowen was 7 years old. As a successful man, Fang Bingsheng also wanted to give his son the best education he could get early - this is the right of the rich (he really wanted to find  Several great Confucian scholars came to teach his son (of course this was Fang Bingsheng's fantasy, unless you wanted to immigrate to the Qing Dynasty, the top elites would still be in the same direction as the court). Fang Bingsheng studied for a long time and chose a school that had just been established near his home.  Tin Yan Road Baptist Church Pei Tak Primary School.

    This is the result of intelligence analysis by elites: The Civil War between the North and South of the United States is in full swing, and within the Song Empire, the Southern American Protestant Church is frantically integrating various southern sects and other Protestant religions under the emperor's instructions, condensing its own educational resources, and forming one after another.  Peide, read in the newspaper: It seems that new schools are being built in Peide every month, and there are also church schools that have been renamed Peide.

    This moral education system is the crown of the future imperial examination system. Elites like Fang Bingsheng are keenly aware of this. After weighing the pros and cons, he painfully and gratifiedly sent his son Fang Bowen to Tian'en Peide.

    The pain is: the day has finally come, and I have to train my son to be a foreign slave. Alas, I feel sorry for my ancestors; the joy is: my son is going to be a foreign slave who can easily become an official. Ha, my ancestors bless me!

    The son wears a foreign school uniform, foreign leather shoes, and carries foreign books in his bag. He rides Ah Fu's rickshaw bumping to school every day, but there is still one thing missing that shows his identity: he is undoubtedly a book boy.

    Who among the children of rich families does not have a book boy?  This is a kind of personal servant, which helps the master-servant relationship to be unbreakable at an early age. In a word, it can train a child to be a loyal servant.

    Therefore, thinking that Ah Fu¡¯s family were all tall and looked mighty, and that Ah Fu¡¯s second son was also seven years old, Fang Bingsheng asked Zhou Quanzai to be his son¡¯s book boy.Well, every time the father accompanies the old man to face unruly people, the child will curse and hold a stick and prepare to beat people. The hero in the boss's mind is the gangsters brought by the railway company - he doesn't have to work and beat people.  People get a lot of money, eat well and drink spicy food every day, gamble and drink, and even if they please themselves, they will be thrown an expensive Western cigarette;

    The second child is too young and can't even cook a big pot of rice. He can only serve tea and water to the big shots in the mountain temple, and sweep the floor and wipe the tables. This is the lightest servant job, so the second child sees everything in his eyes.  He believed in his heart that the intellectuals who wrote and drew at the table and pointed out the country in front of the map were his heroes.

    In this way, the eldest brother likes to be a gangster and does not care about culture; while the second child admires those literati and is enthusiastic about learning literacy and arithmetic.

    The two of them followed the master and his father to the capital, and they were like fish in water: the ten-year-old eldest had the opportunity to gamble with the older servants, and looked for pornographic magazines everywhere; while the seven-year-old second son was attracted by the fact that there were a lot of pictures and words in the young master's house.  I was very inspired by the book, and there is also a model locomotive!

    In Tian En Peide¡¯s free entrance test for the poor, the second eldest Zhou Quanzai was shortlisted, while the eldest Zhou Lizai was rejected because he was old and didn¡¯t know anything.

    In fact, that year, almost all the wild children who liked to play on the Tian'en Peide campus and peek into the classroom were recruited. In terms of Peide's educational beliefs: they were not the lower class of small businessmen, hawkers, and unemployed vagrants.  They are sinless children, the species closest to the kingdom of heaven. They are the future of the community, the future of faith, and the future of the entire region. Whoever holds the children holds the world.

    From the night when Zhou Hengfu and his second son knelt in front of Teacher Luo's door and kowtowed with tears in their faces, Zhou Quanzai became the central figure in the coachman Zhou's family: he and the young master will study together, and he will be able to read.  He might be able to take the scientific examination and become an official. The Zhou family's dream rests on this child.

    The three Zhou family members had a close relationship with Fang Bingsheng and his son, and they were all very loyal. However, five or six years later, the two families parted ways because Fang Bingsheng began to dislike the Zhou family and his son.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
