Ever since he learned that the old man Jianguang was dead, Fang Bingsheng had been very depressed for a few days, so much so that he used his royalties to buy wine every day, which was still a rare thing this year.
In the year after the accident, although he was bankrupt, Fang Bingsheng was always like a soldier waiting for a certain departure order to be handed over to him by an unfamiliar-faced commander. He would suit up and set off immediately, returning to the place he hated and loved. Go into the life track - Railway West Academy Jinling.
The only one he counted on was Weng Jianguang.
In the past two days, Fang Bingsheng also spent money to buy a lot of newspapers. Judging from the reports, the railway industry has turned into the troubled times of the Warring States Period after the overlord's defeat: various chaebols are desperately fighting for the share of Song You Iron and Electric, pulling up their own The new company's army went on conquests everywhere; the imperial court's Iron River Leap Forward plan and the strong investment enthusiasm of the people brought fire to this troubled world; everyone fought so fiercely that no one even mentioned Weng Jianguang's name soon. His status was replaced and forgotten seemingly overnight - this is the cruelty of the Hai Song Dynasty.
I think about it every day and every night, and I just miss Weng Jianguang. I never thought that God could not predict how Weng Jianguang himself would turn into a clay Bodhisattva and be thrown into the river, turning into a stinky creature that no fish or shrimp would eat. mud.
This complete despair brought huge changes to Fang Bingsheng:
First of all, the couple who owned the Dechang Shuihuo Shop found that Mr. Fang had changed and became a bit lazy. When they first hired him, they were still worried about it, but they did not expect that Fang Bingsheng was very diligent and conscientious in his work; but in recent days, Fang Bingsheng has become lazy. Lying on the counter proudly. I no longer care about greeting customers, and my accounting is all wrong;
This is because they used to recruit a soldier, but now that soldier¡¯s army is finished, his heart is filled with pain and confusion, and he has turned into a ruffian;
Secondly, Fang Bingsheng also began to really look at Shili Gou for the first time.
He used to live and work here, but he never really cared about it. To him, this place was just a camp for wounded soldiers. His fantasy was that a big carriage would pick him up in a few days, and a few days after that. He returns here in suit and top hat. Patiently and affectionately greeting everyone who helped him - just like Han Xin crawling under the gangster's crotch and thinking about coming back one day to thank Piao's mother for the rice.
In this fantasy of tomorrow, tomorrow comes tomorrow, and I spent most of the year easily.
Now that he couldn¡¯t see how to get up, he truly recognized that he was lying in the mud. Start looking at the mud spots and ants on the ground. I even want to find some wild fruit to eat.
With his talent. The people from Shiligou were very generous in giving wild fruits.
Yesterday, Wang Qian from Qiufeng Church came, specifically to order lunch, and invited Fang Bingsheng out from behind the counter. The two had a meaty lunch at a nearby street shed.
During the meal, Wang Qian paid no hesitation to Fang Bingsheng. He praised Fang Bingsheng for a long time, expressing that the academy was short of teachers, and asked Fang Bingsheng if he would participate in this year's imperial examination.
As soon as he said this, Fang Bingsheng understood: Wang Xintai felt that he was qualified to be their teacher, and the price would not be expensive, but he didn't know how his Chinese language score in the imperial examination was, so he secretly wanted to encourage himself to take the imperial examination.
Their idea is to win without losing anything: they have not received a systematic Western education, and they will never pass the imperial examination. They can only have some decent results in the two liberal arts subjects of theology and Chinese, and that is enough; if they have good results in Chinese, Excellent, that is equivalent to the written examination for admission. The academy of Qiufeng Church will immediately recruit me as a teacher specializing in Chinese. That is, you can use your imperial examination and Chinese language scores as a gimmick. In fact, you are not worried about being admitted to Guanfei. This Chinese language teacher can do it well. It¡¯s very practical; and because I¡¯m too good at partial subjects, I can¡¯t pass the official examination, so I can only study a few subjects. After a few years of experience accumulation, I will become a gold medal subject lecturer and become one of the college¡¯s signatures.
A few days ago, Fang Bingsheng might have thought: Damn the exam, maybe Song You Tiedian will come to work for me tomorrow! Then he talked and laughed casually and rejected this potential job that would actually be extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming; but that day, Fang Bingsheng raised the wine cup on the crate table and drank it all in one gulp, frowning and feeling the strong liquor flowing through his esophagus. Feeling the burning pain, he was silent for a while and said: "I have been waiting for an official vacancy with all liberal arts subjects to appear, but I haven't been to the examination room for many years. I haven't read the theology and Chinese textbooks for more than half a year. I have no books. Wait for me to go Buy it from the bookstore"
Hearing this, Wang Qian immediately took out a square cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Fang Bingsheng. He shouted, "No need to buy it! I brought you a few books! If you want any teaching materials, just ask Bowen to pick them up." ! After the results of the imperial examination are announced, we must consider that our academy is very hungry for talents. No one specializes in Chinese language! Elder Wang said that the academy should be turned into a large academy that studies each subject separately, and the people in Shiligou are actually more People are getting richer and have more and more children. Our development prospects here are very good.It takes less time, and the imperial examination itself is also risky. I can't guarantee that I will get a high score in Chinese for the first time when I enter the examination room again in sixteen or seventeen years, right? What should I do if I fail the exam? Qiufeng Church¡¯s calculation is really shrewd, the risks are all my own"
Just when Fang Bingsheng was struggling, he heard someone coming into the store and walking very slowly. However, the store was too small. Fang Bingsheng could smell the horse smell on the other person's body without raising his head. At this moment, it was considered a good thing for a store with smelly air. A fresh smell, like the smell of blood in the sea for sharks swimming in the sea of ??kerosene.
But Fang Bingsheng still didn't raise his head, just staring at the book. Just by the disturbance of the horse-smelling airflow, he intuitively felt that the other party was looking around, unlike the customers who came straight to buy oil.
He was not in the mood to work. After a while, Fang Bingsheng, who was lying on the counter with his head down reading, shouted impatiently: "Have you seen enough? What do you want?"
Still didn¡¯t raise his head, too lazy to greet the guests seriously. (To be continued)
