This old friend is not someone else, and Lu Zheng still has some friendship with him.
The surname is Fang, the name is straight, and the character is not curved. He is a native of Dongmen County, Zhangzhou. When he was young, he went to Langya County to study for several years.
"What kind of strong wind is blowing today that brought you here?"
Lu Zheng went to meet the guests after tidying up a little, and saw a familiar face as soon as he entered.
Fang Zhi smiled and sorted out the hem of his clothes, then got up and gave Lu Zheng a bow. Today, the two are very different. Fang Zhi is a teacher who lives in the countryside and cultivates, while Lu Zheng is a counselor under the vassal's account. He still came with a mission today, and he didn't dare to anger Lu Zheng.
"The classmates have been friends for several years. Come and see that you are going to be interrogated? Hehe, after the years have passed, Shaoyin is better than the past."
Don't look at Fang Zhi's face with a national character, and look at the righteousness, but Lu Zheng knows that there is a serious heart under this handsome appearance. In recent years, the big guy has not had much contact, and he went to the Three Treasures Hall for everything. When Fang Zhi came to visit at this time, Lu Zheng had to pay attention. The most important thing is that Fang Zhi's ancestral home is Dongmen County, Zhangzhou, and today's Zhangzhou is in the hands of Jiang Pengji.
In this way, Fang Zhi's intentions are intriguing.
Despite this suspicion, Lu Zheng did not expose it. Instead, he followed Fang Zhi's topic and began to reminisce about the past, nostalgic for his youth.
Whether it is for Fang Zhi or Lu Zheng, the period of juvenile schooling is always particularly beautiful, even if there is a discordant Jiang Pengji added to this beauty, it is also a memory of youth. As the two talked, they mentioned their respective situations, sighing endlessly.
Not everyone who went to study at Langya Academy was talented. For example, Fang Zhi's talent was mediocre. After his studies, he went back to his hometown to be a master and earn a living as a student. In the past few years, the outside world has been in chaos, and Fang Zhikai’s small private school has also been affected. The people are even struggling to make a living. Where is there any spare money to send their children to private schools to study and read? Therefore, Fang Zhi was unemployed.
Despite being unemployed, Fang Zhi was not too pessimistic.
Compared with those displaced refugees and people in troubled times with separated wives and children, he still has a hut to keep out the shade and rain, so he can eat a full meal. No matter how bad it is, he has other ways to escape, such as going to seek refuge with his classmates. Most of the students from Langya Academy had a good life. Some of them were cast in the vassal's tent and became prosperous, while others were small parents and officials in small places.
If Fang Zhi chooses to take refuge with his classmates, he will be safe not to mention being a little rich, and it will be no problem to mix well.
The nobles are connected by blood to form a huge network of forces, and the students from the same academy rely on the friendship of the same family.
The latter is not as obvious as the former, but it is also an invisible force that cannot be underestimated.
Therefore, Fang Zhi was very calm.
But he soon became restless.
why
He lives in seclusion in a rural town. The house is built by paying for the help of nearby villagers. The quality is quite good, but no matter how good the quality is, it cannot stand the ravages of mudslides. Fortunately, when the mountain collapsed and formed a mudslide, Fang Zhi took his wife and children out to purchase daily necessities.
Except for the chickens and ducks in the kitchen, no other people in the family were injured.
He was lucky, but the nearby villagers were not so lucky. The dirt road leading to the outside world was washed away by mudslides, and the village was almost isolated from the outside world. The mountains are barren, and now the weather is getting colder and colder. The rice grains hoarded by the people's homes are not enough for them to survive the winter. It is necessary to find someone to clear the roads again. For this matter, Fang Zhi could only find a way to find someone outside, but he encountered conscription.
Of course, Fang Zhi was not recruited as a soldier, but he heard that Zhangzhou's master had been replaced by an old classmate.
Fang Zhi: "…"
When did this happen
Wasn't Yang Tao still in power a few months ago
The news in the countryside is blocked, and Fang Zhi does not have the ability to intervene in the general trend of the world. Naturally, he does not care much, and the news is not timely enough.
However, it is definitely beneficial for his old classmate to be in power, so Fang Zhi brazenly begged to see him and borrowed someone to clear the mountain road again.
Jiang Pengji heard that she was a member of the f5 day group that year, of course she agreed.
However, Fang Zhi and Jiang Pengji were not as happy as others expected when their old classmates reunited.
No way, embarrassing!
Lu Zheng only heard that Jiang Pengji had blown up the toilet the next day, but he was an accomplice who went out with Jiang Pengji to blow up the toilet.
#The classmate who blew the latrine was transformed into a prince of the world, what kind of smile did he face to avoid embarrassment! Very urgent! #
Fang Zhi was embarrassed, while Jiang Pengji was so calm that she couldn't see her emotions. When chatting, she asked Fang Zhi how he was doing in recent years.
Hearing that Fang Zhikai's private school had no students enrolled, and it was closed, he asked, "Are you willing to go to Maruzhou?"
Fang Zhi was puzzled.
"Sir is now teaching at the Jinlin Academy in Wanzhou. You have a solid foundation, why not apply for the job as a master?" Jiang Pengji said, "You are free to stay here, but it is also a waste of time. Ordinary farmers can't even maintain food and clothing, so where is there any spare money? educate children?"
Jinlin Academy is one of Jiang Pengji's most valued projects. It has been investing in expansion over the years, and there has always been a shortage of masters with solid foundations and strong personalities. Fang Zhi was indeed very skinny when he was young, but his personality was not bad, just as upright and upright as his name taboo.
If Fang Zhi went to teach at Jinlin Academy, Jiang Pengji would be able to protect him a little and help Mr. Yuanjing share the pressure.
Fang Zhi was silent for a while and said, "Lan Tinggong said very much... it's just..."
Jiang Pengji knew what he was hesitating about.
In the past, Langya Academy had a good atmosphere, and Mr. Yuanjing treated him equally. Few students felt that they were neglected or born inferior. If it weren't for this, Lu Zheng's few students from a cold background would not be able to get along so well with Jiang Pengji.
However, after all, there is a deadline for studying, and after leaving Langya Academy, the dividends brought by the student's original family are fully exposed.
It's not that Fang Zhi didn't try to become an official. First, he is not that kind of material, and it is difficult to be an official. Second, he does not have the path to become an official, so he can only go to the countryside to teach, trying to attract more ambitious farmers Being able to read and read can change the life of the poor.
Fang Zhi is not famous, and the private school he runs is also unknown.
The wealthy households disliked it, and the ordinary people could not afford it. In the end, Fang Zhi had to post it, and only a few students could be found.
The war was fierce outside, and the few students were called by their parents to go home to farm and support their families.
"It's still some time before Zhangzhou settles down. It's okay for you to stay here. Can your wife and children bear it?"
Fang Zhi is not a hypocritical character, even though he is a little middle-aged in his youth, he has stabilized in middle age.
"Finding a place to live in troubled times is a luxury... Fortunately, Lan Ting did not give up, and the grass people also have the intention of going north..."
When classmates meet, there is always a lot to say, especially people and things in the student days.
While talking, Jiang Pengji suddenly remembered that Lu Zheng still owed her a debt.
Confused, Fang Zhi took over the task of debt collection for her.
When asked why, Fang Zhi replied, "Most people like to be consummated. It's easy to say and listen to the heart."
Only then did Fang Zhi travel all the way to find Lu Zheng.
