Be a master through ancient times

Early the next morning, the Chu family woke up.They went to the ancestral hall with their sacrifices. After worshiping the ancestors of the Chu family and Chu's father, they took out the family tree of the Chu family under the witness of the elders in the village.

The family tree was originally supposed to be done by the head of the clan, but the Chu family escaped, and there was no one else except their two brothers.Chu Guang is the elder brother, but he only knows a little, and what he writes is really difficult to be elegant, so Chu Ci can only do his part and take on this task.

This family tree is very thin, and it was only made when Chu Ci was elected.Chu Ci directly turned to Chu Guang's page, and wrote down the names of Chu Xiao and Chu Yaoyao under the children.Then he turned to his own page and recorded Lu Jingshu's name below.

After writing, the elders in the village read the prayer, and then carefully sealed it up, and will not invite it out until the next big event such as a wedding or funeral or an addition.Chu Ci felt that it was very similar to the household registration book, but it seemed to have something more than the household registration book.It was a strange feeling that was hard to ignore.Chu Ci really couldn't explain it clearly, so he could only replace it with a sense of belonging for the time being.

The big event of going home this time has been completed, and while the elders and the village chief were all present, Chu Ci promised another [-] acres of sacrificed land on the spot.Most of the output of this part will be used to support poor students.

I don't know if it's the power of role models. Among the ten miles and eight towns, their Changxi Village has the strongest reading atmosphere, and the village school is also the best.I heard that many people from other villages want to study here.

At that time, the founding emperor ordered the construction of schools, but the people below were obedient and obedient. The school was built, but no supporting facilities were in place, leaving only a few houses in name only.By now, if it was not required, it would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

The strong atmosphere is inseparable from Chuci's funding, so Chuci decided to increase investment in this area.The more people there are, the more competition there will be. Healthy competition is conducive to improving the level of the group and making progress together.Coupled with the rewards issued in various names, it can even encourage them to work hard.

However, Chu Ci also has a requirement, that is, while retaining the gentlemen's right to persuade them to quit, add another constraint.For some students who want to be dismissed, more than half of the teachers in the school need to agree.Doing so may not necessarily prevent students from enrolling due to personal enmity, but it can always avoid most of the injustices.

For example, when the old master was angry with him and refused to let Chu Xiaoyuan go to school, if he hadn't changed later, I'm afraid Chu Xiaoyuan's life would be completely different from the present.

……

The days at home were idle and joyful. After that, Chu Ci slept until he woke up naturally every day. He supervised the children's reading in the morning and took them to play on the short hill behind in the afternoon. Even Chu Shanshan, who was more than two years old, also I took it with me, and within two days, my uncle and uncle kept barking like her brother.

During the period, Chu Ci was also invited to Yuanshan County School to give lectures to the students. The students naturally came with great curiosity about this outstanding man engraved on the stone tablet, but seeing the real person Chu Ci, They can't help but get sour.

It doesn't matter if you do well in studies, and you are still so young, so it doesn't matter, but he is still so handsome.What's even more enviable is that he has already become a high school student at the age when others are still in school.Thinking of the scene where Mo Ti went to inspect the county, that was a grandeur. For a scholar, this is probably the ultimate pursuit.

Chu Ci didn't know what they were thinking, but he also felt their burning eyes.Chu Ci, who mistakenly thought that he was particularly interested in what he said, became energetic, and said what was not planned to be said in the lesson preparation.These students have benefited a lot from the teaching full of dry goods. After returning, they immediately spread paper and ink, and recorded their feelings today, leaving many good articles.

Time is an indeterminate thing, sometimes it feels like a fleeting moment, and sometimes it feels like an inch of time.After Chu Ci reacted, there were only two days left in his fifteen-day vacation.

Chu Ci, who was immersed in the beautiful holiday, couldn't help sighing after realizing this fact.I haven't had much rest in the past two years, and I finally took a vacation, but it passed so quickly.Sure enough, it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal!

"Master, Master Xu is here!" Seeing Steward Xu's carriage parked at the door, Zhang Hu hurried into the study to announce.

"Please come in quickly." Chu Ci said, these days Steward Xu took the people from the caravan to go around to clear the accounts, it is said that he is going to pick out some less profitable stores, leaving only a few businesses to inquire about the news.

"Master Aci, this old man came here today on the order of my young master, please check the accounts." Steward Xu walked in with a smile, looking very much like an old fox who had grown up in the mountains, and after speaking, he looked more like it .

"Brother Jing sent a letter?" Chu Ci's focus was distorted. He stood up abruptly, walked a few steps to Butler Xu, and asked excitedly.

Steward Xu shook his head blankly: "No, did I mention his letter?" He tried hard to recall what he said, and felt that he hadn't said it.

"Didn't you say that I was ordered by the young master to check the accounts?" Chu Ci couldn't hide his anxiety when he fell from heaven to hell in an instant.Since he broke the letter last year, he has never known the situation there.Fighting on the battlefield is a job with the head pinned to the waistband of his trousers. He has sent so many letters like mud cows drowning in the sea, which is really worrying.

"This... is actually the young master's explanation before. He said that the love between you brothers is stronger than gold. If you have any questions about business, just ask you." Butler Xu said, he felt that his young master used The words are very problematic. Is the word love than gold used here?Given that his young master has become a martial artist, this small slip of the tongue is understandable.

"That's it," Chu Ci said with a strong smile, "I am not as good-sighted as Uncle Xu when it comes to business. Your opinion should prevail in everything."

Butler Xu said: "No, no, it's up to you. When the old man checked the accounts this time, he found that the accounts of several shops were very strange. The accountant who invited him said that there was no problem after several calculations, but what do I think? How strange. Your ability in arithmetic is obvious to all, so I want to ask you to help me take a look."

After talking about this, Chu Ci no longer declined.He took the ledger and the abacus, his fingers twitching rapidly on it, the ledgers passed by his hand one by one, and soon there was only the last one left.

After looking through it, Chu Ci took a few glances, and felt the same strange feeling in his heart as Steward Xu did.He first checked the accounts above, and found that the ones that were right were perfect, and the other accounts had occasional errors, but this one could be taken out as a model bookkeeping.

"You found out too, right?"

Chu Ci nodded: "Yeah, although I'm not proficient in this, I still find it strange. Although the income and expenditure are right, the figures are not quite right. According to the above statement, this store has always been losing money. Right? Since it is losing money, why does this store never reduce its purchases every month?"

Butler Xu gave him an approving look. He was indeed proficient in arithmetic, and he immediately discovered the key problem.

"What else did you discover, tell me together."

"The purchase volume of this store has been maintained at that number since December last year, and the monthly sales are only about two-thirds of the expected profit. Even so, he never reduced the purchase volume, just letting it go every day Have you lost so much every month? And I compared the business of another silk and satin shop. The purchase price of this one is also slightly higher than that of others. The purchase is large and expensive, but the sale is so cheap. , is there something that cannot be said?"

As soon as Chu Ci's analysis came out, Steward Xu gave a thumbs up: "It really is a hero born a boy, you can't understand business, but you can see the tricks of this shop just by these figures, I really admire this old man."

"Uncle Xu, you praise too much. It's just that you really can't see this account?" Chu Ci looked at him suspiciously. Even a non-businessman can see the problem with this account book. Such a shrewd person will read it. No problem?

Butler Xu just smiled and said nothing, so everything was in silence.

"Uncle Xu just made fun of me. You must have dealt with that person, right?" Chu Ci asked. Judging from his usual relationship with Butler Xu, this guy is not a good person. Don't look at his behavior in front of children. He is so friendly, but he also knows that none of the servants in the back office of Tixue is not afraid of him.

Steward Xu acquiesced, and he would definitely not be soft on such a person who picks on the inside and the outside, and sent him directly to the prison.In fact, he should be glad that if he had committed such a thing a few years earlier, he might not have been able to see where the prison door opened.
