Seeing that Zhang Shou remained silent, Lu Sanlang thought that the other person had heard of his reputation, so he hesitated and quickly added a few more words.
"Sir, your Cuijun Room is the only elegant place suitable for living within a few miles. If you can agree to my request, when those perverts in the capital hear that Miss Zhu is staying here and flock to you, I will definitely stand up and act as a shield for you! I am not bragging, but my reputation in the capital is quite important!"
Zhang Shou almost choked to death. I took great pains to attract a bunch of fat sheep to slaughter, and you want to help me stop them
He laughed in a hoarse voice, and then said lightly: "Let's not talk about studying for now. If you want to learn, I can let Xiao Qi teach you. As for other people who want to live here, there is no need to stop them. You just need to help Xiao Qi maintain order here and make them abide by the rules!"
Lu Sanlang was stunned at first, then he suddenly realized.
"Old sir, the order is easy to deal with. If those idiots can't answer these questions, I will charge them ten taels of silver for every day they stay! Old sir, you are very generous. You don't want to take this money. This is the rule that I, Lu Sanlang, who came first, abide by. Who dares not to abide by it? Aren't you afraid of angering Miss Zhu? You can use the money to rebuild Cuiyun Room or to help the villagers."
As he spoke, he grinned and said, "Miss Zhu can solve a problem, aren't they afraid of losing face? I will quietly tell them that they pay to stay for a few days, and then they can come back and tell Miss Zhu how many problems they solved. For such a face-saving thing, what does a little money mean?"
If he could learn mathematics from this reclusive old gentleman, it would be an unexpected gain, but his goal was to completely muddy up or even shatter the circle of Miss Zhu's suitors and the muddy waters of the court, including his father's calculations!
He, Lu Sanlang, is really smart. This is called killing several birds with one stone! Moreover, who could have guessed that this was his wisdom
Seeing the man's eyes darting around, Zhang Shou couldn't help but want to hold his forehead. This guy in front of him could actually guess what he was thinking!
Could it be that he was targeting a fat sheep but ended up letting in a fat fox
When he quietly returned to Zhang's house in the village from the bamboo house along the path that only a few people in the village knew about, Zhang Shou, who had just remained silent, couldn't help but sigh when he saw Zhu Ying, who was unhappy because she couldn't go to see Lu Sanlang's fun.
"That Lu Sanlang, you really don't know what he is until you see him. I was shocked when I saw him. He is truly a talented person!"
Without waiting for Zhu Ying to ask, he recounted in front of the two maids, Zhanjin and Liuyin, exactly what Lu Sanlang had said and done after Liuyin left. He had a very good memory, and just like Zhu Ying had repeated the original words of his father, Duke Zhao, he imitated Lu Sanlang's demeanor and tone vividly, which stunned the master and two servants.
"If I hadn't seen Sanlang Lu's true face in person, I would have really thought he was just an ordinary playboy!"
He was just about to elaborate on Lu Sanlang's last suggestion when he heard Wu calling him from outside the door. He smiled and said, "I'll go see what mother wants me to do and I'll be back soon."
