The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

"Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Bai. Google search to read"

"This is all done according to your request. I don't deserve your praise, Mr. Bai."

When Lao Li heard this, his face immediately lit up with joy.

He knew that Bai Gui had plenty of money and was more generous than the average gentleman. If he served him well and had a little leakage between his fingers, he would be able to enjoy his life for the rest of his life.

Besides, he was originally a housekeeper and had no housekeeping experience. And the salary of a housekeeper is several times more than that of a housekeeper, so he is not willing to give up this job easily...

Therefore, try your best to avoid being inattentive.

After saying this, Lao Li took the white horse and walked to the stable.

A large house like the White House has stables ready for use from the beginning of its construction.

"Mr. Bai, I have served mules and horses, but I have never served a BMW like this. If the service of such a precious thing goes bad, I won't be able to pay for it even if I sell it!"

As soon as Bai Gui returned to his room, Lao Li knocked on the door and spoke hesitantly.

I can handle some errands.

Some errands cannot be handled.

For example, Lao Li didn't dare to agree to the task of feeding the horses. If a horse loses fat, a good horse will become useless, and he can't even make a few bucks if he extracts oil and sells it.

"You're right, but if I give you three or four days of training now, nothing will go wrong."

"I know how to raise horses and raise them well. I will teach you this craft in the past few days. Once you learn it, you will be able to make a living."

Bai Gui nodded and said.

Lao Li is right, horses cannot be raised indiscriminately.

Just like the half-grown black horse he raised in Bailu Village, he was afraid of something happening because horses were more expensive than people.

Once there is a loss, the owner will not spare the groom.

This kind of loss does not mean that there are bruises or scratches, but that the horse is crippled...

Tian Ji said in horse racing that there are high-grade horses, medium-grade horses and low-grade horses. Those who know how to raise horses can make middle-class horses show their strength as high-class horses, while those who don't know how to raise horses can make high-class horses develop into low-class horses and low-class horses.

For example, a top-grade horse costs about three hundred silver dollars, while a mid-level horse that is slightly better only costs a little over a hundred silver dollars. The difference during this period is certainly due to the fact that good horses are hard to find and the price is inflated, but if they are raised to waste, who will care? If the price is falsely high or not, you have to pay what you deserve...

"Thank you, boss."

"Mr. Bai knows how to raise horses?"

Lao Li's nervous expression suddenly relaxed a lot.

But I was also a little surprised in my heart.

Raising horses may seem simple, but it is actually a slow and skillful process. Those who know how to raise horses are not considered to be guests in the hall, but they will have no worries about food and drink wherever they go.

"know a bit."

Bai Gui smiled.

His father, Bai Youde, was a long-term worker and a groom, and he had already passed on the skills of raising horses to him. However, Bai Youde's method of raising horses is not very clever. He just knows how to raise horses and prevents them from losing quality. But when he was in Japan, he participated in archery competitions, including horseback archery, and also learned some knowledge about scientific horse breeding.

Lao Li thanked him and then left.

After Lao Li left for a while, Bai Gui thought about it and took out the letterhead and envelope from the suitcase.

He had just settled down in Yanjing.

I have to write a reply to my friend.

He also had to tell some relatives in Qin Province that he was currently in Yanjing and would not return to Qin Province until some time later, so that they did not have to worry.

…

For several days, Bai Gui visited Bai Mansion.

Improve relationship.

However, on the day after the horse was presented to him, Bai Xiuzhu had a slight quarrel with him and refused to tell him the reason. However, the quarrel did not last long, about a quarter of an hour, and they reconciled as before.

The days passed slowly like this, about seven or eight days passed.

Brother Xun came to visit.

"Brother Meihe, you came to Yanjing and didn't tell me the news..."

"Don't let me take care of the landlord's friendship."

"I am disappointed."

In the living room, Brother Xun had just settled down and was lying on the sofa. He couldn't stop sarcastic words, saying that he forgot his friends because of sex, or that he was not enough friends, with a look of disdain on his face.

"If I hadn't heard the news, I wouldn't have known you had returned to China..."

he said.

"Brother Yucai, I don't want to be like this either. You know me. If I come back upright, how much trouble I will be in..."

"If Xiuzhu hadn't been my fiancee, whom I haven't seen for many years, I wouldn't have returned to Yanjing. I would have gone back to my Qin province." Gu

Bai Gui looked indifferent and said slowly.

Brother Xun previously worked at the newspaper, but with the abdication of Xunqing, the world situation changed. Under the recommendation of Principal Cai, Brother Xun resigned from the newspaper and returned to China to serve as the first section chief of the Department of Education. He was appointed as an official again, and now he is the Minister of Education.

However, Brother Xun's job as an education minister is a sinecure, and he spends his days leisurely. Every day, he is either copying ancient steles, compiling inscriptions on epigraphic steles, or proofreading ancient books.

"Bai Xiuzhu..."

Brother Xun's tone paused.

Unexpectedly, he met Bai Gui for the first time in the embassy. While chatting, Bai Xiuzhu took his seat, which made him very embarrassed and he didn't know where to go.

Now I can't imagine that when Bai Gui just returned to China, he didn't look for him as a friend first, but instead looked for a fiancée.

"Okay, let's not talk too much."

Brother Xun took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said slowly and calmly: "Recently, many people in the government are discussing what you, Bai Meihe, are planning to do when you return to China. I believe that Brother Meihe has received many invitations since your return to China. The invitation..."

"Brother Yucai is right. In the past few days, forty or fifty invitations have been sent to me. Some want to invite me to work in departments, some want me to teach in universities, and some want me to attend banquets and get to know each other. One or two..."

Bai Gui nodded.

He is now like a great sage in ancient times. Many people want to ask him to become an official or teach. Because if you can invite him to serve, it will be equivalent to having a reputation as a courteous corporal, and he is a young man. Once he becomes an official, his prospects are immeasurable...

This is when he returned to China secretly.

If he had returned to China in an honest manner, he would probably be in full swing now.

"But I politely declined these letters."

Bai Gui sighed.

If he hadn't remembered that he had just met Bai Xiuzhu and suffered from lovesickness at the first sight, he would not have left Yanjing early. Otherwise, he would have packed his bags and left Yanjing long ago.

"I know that Brother Meihe is unwilling to serve as an official."

Brother Xun nodded.

This news was also circulated in the government.

Otherwise, with Bai Gui's reputation, the price offered would definitely not be low, and there would be no response until now.

"If Brother Meihe is unwilling to serve as an official..."

"It's better to teach."

Brother Xun smiled and said.

"Teaching?"

Bai Gui frowned.

With his talent, teaching is definitely enough. The status of a teacher is not low either. The king of heaven and earth is the master, and the status of teachers is very high. If you don't want to become an official, teaching is indeed a good idea.

Using this as an excuse to avoid being an official can avoid a lot of trouble.

Of course, the so-called teaching does not mean that he has been teaching forever. It is just a transitional period for him in Yanjing. He can resign after handling Yanjing's affairs.

"Brother Yucai is joking. Nowadays, major universities in Yanjing are in a state of turmoil. I don't want to accept this arrogance when I go to teach!"

Bai Gui refused.

During the pre-Qing Dynasty, there were three major universities in China: Beiyang University, Shanxi University, and Jingshi University. Later, Xunqing abdicated, and the Imperial University was changed to Peking University. This is the well-deserved number one university in Beijing, followed by the preparatory courses for studying in the United States.

As for the future four major universities, Fu Jen University and Yenching University, they have not yet been established.

And now Yan Fu is the president of Peking University...

I sent him an invitation a few days ago.

Before President Cai reformed Peking University, Peking University was in a state of chaos and had an unhealthy academic style. At this time, there was a saying in the eight major alleys in Yanjing, which was called "Two colleges and one hall". The hall refers to the Great Hall of the Capital, that is, Peking University. The students are all the warriors who visit the brothels...

After all, the Capital University Hall is divided into the Jinshi Hall, the History Hall, and the Medical Hall. Each of them is an official, and they are full of official style. How can they study seriously?

Every student there has a footman, and every time it's time for class, a footman will shout: "Master, class is here."

Although Bai Gui believes that he is not an ordinary person, he does not feel that he is qualified to teach these officials.

"Brother Meihe, if you go to Peking University to teach, wouldn't you still be interested in officialdom..."

Brother Xun smiled.

Peking University is similar to the former Imperial College. Can ordinary people teach there?

Doctors from the Five Classics were all close associates of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

“Then where will I teach?”

"Besides Peking University, there is no other place suitable for me to teach."

Bai Gui frowned.

"Have you ever considered a girls' college, Miwa-nii?"

Brother Xun raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Now that Mr. De is here, women's rights have also increased. If you, Brother Meihe, can be your assistant, it will greatly develop women's education. Now it depends on whether you are willing, Brother Meihe... …”
