Chapter 16 Teaching

"Young Master, are you taking the land deed back now?"

"Take it back."

In the backyard of the security hall, Li Ang proudly placed the land deed and house deed description at the bottom of the wooden box containing the property.

This morning, Shad, the owner of the ship who cleaned up parasites, asked his brother to send a hundred guan.

With the addition of the 100 stakes from the Supervisor Supervisor, and the outpatient fee collected during this period, and the consumption of pure wine, cloth, medicinal materials, Li Ang still has 197 stakes left.

Immediately brought the money to Ai Rong, the president of Xinglin Association, and asked for the land deed to be issued.

Chai Cuiqiao murmured in a low voice: "Ai Rong took out the land deed so simply? I thought they were going to do something else."

"All the money is all together, what excuses do they have? If they really want to make trouble, I will be the one who will be responsible."

Li Ang smiled and said, "It's finally a troublesome thing.

By the way, today's Dragon Boat Festival, I will visit Mr. Liuxuan first to see how his son's elbow is recovering from dislocation. I will buy some rice dumplings in the afternoon and Wuhuang will come back.

You have a good family

We'll go to see the dragon boat in the evening."

"Look at the dragon boat? OK!"

Chai Cuiqiao slapped his palm excitedly. There were hundreds of shipbuilding workshops of all sizes in the city of Bianzhou, and countless shipping-related businesses. Every year, there were dragon boat dramas on the Dragon Boat Festival night on May 5th.

Small lights were hung on all dragon boats. When the whistle sounded, hundreds of boats and thousands of sails competed, like flying stars in the flowing fire. Those who sailed under the Bangzhou Bridge first were the champions.

The 300-ton prize for the champion is second, and it is more important to be able to have a face in front of the villagers.

As for the Wuhuang mentioned by Li Ang, it refers to the Wuhuang Banquet in the local customs of the Hanzhou Province, yellow croaker, cucumber, eel, duck egg yolk and yellow wine.

Originally, realgar wine was used, but it was not until the school proved that drinking realgar wine was harmful thirty years ago. Therefore, whether it was Wuhuang Banquet or applied to children's forehead to prevent snakes and insects, it changed from realgar wine to yellow wine.

"Look at home, I'll be back later. Do you have any requirements for the taste of the rice dumpling?"

"If you want to make the plum vegetable and bean paste stuffing, don't make the sugar stuffing."

"Hey? You didn't like eating before."

"In the past, I had a small stomach, and I got tired of eating one and was full. Now I can eat several! The stomach should be empty for other delicious foods!"

Chai Cuiqiao put her hands on her hips and looked proud, and she didn't know what she was proud of.

Li Ang smiled and pulled her bangs and left.

The street is full of festive atmosphere. Mugwort and calamus are hung at the doors of every household, including the corners of the tables of vendors. Children with the word "king" written in yellow wine on their foreheads chase and fight on the street, and go to the suburbs to fly kites with their parents.

Looking at the lively scene, Li Ang bought a bottle of yellow wine, walked briskly to the alley, and knocked on the gate of Pu Liuxuan's house, "Are Mr. Liuxuan here?"

"Oh, Sunrise."

The door was opened to greet Pu Liuxuan's wife Guan Lishu. The youngest son she was holding was playing with a rattle, and the triangle scarf that Li Ang had tied before was wrapped in her hand.

"Call Brother Risheng quickly."

Guan Lishu smiled and put her son in her arms. When her son asked her breasts angrily, she turned around and shouted to the backyard: "Liuxuan, Risheng is here."

I saw two figures sitting on both sides of the stone table in the backyard, slowly tasting tea and chatting. One was Pu Liuxuan and the other...

"It's you?"

Li Ang looked at the young man in green clothes who stood up with Pu Liuxuan in a little surprised. It was the other party who waved his sword in the security hall yesterday that drove away the rogues.

"Junior brother, we're meeting again."

The young man in green smiled brightly and bowed his hand. Pu Liuxuan beside him said with a smile: "Risheng, this is your Senior Brother Cheng Juxiu."

He is my former student in Chang'an.

Now, it’s a school teacher.”

"Academy...teaching?"

Li Ang was stunned for a moment. Isn’t the school teachers also the teacher of the school disciples? This is both a teacher and a senior brother. What should I call it?

"Just call me brother,"

The young man named Cheng Juxiu waved his hand with a smile. "I am just a part-time teacher and haven't taken the class seriously yet."

Pu Liuxuan asked the two to sit down and chatted casually, "Ju Xiu, after graduating from the academy tomorrow, should we continue to serve as a teacher, or do something else?"

"I want to stay in the academy, but there is a little trouble with Professor Gongyang."

Cheng Juxiu hesitated and said, "A fleet that had sailed for the endless sea returned to land in Dengzhou two months ago. The crew on the ship did not go crazy, but the bottom of the ship and the keel were all gnawed by giant barnacles and could no longer sail.

If nothing unexpected happens, I should be recommended to the Water Department of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Industry to assist Professor Gongyang in building ships next year.”

"Is Yang Deming?"

Pu Liuxuan nodded, "He has a weird temper, but he is actually a good person, so he can have more contact with him."

Pu Liuxuan paused for a moment, looked at Li Ang, who was sitting upright next to him, and asked with a smile: "If you have any questions, just say it directly, Ju Xiu is your senior brother, don't be too restrictive."

"Oh OK."

Li Ang cleared his throat, without suppressing his doubts, and asked curiously: "What is a giant barnacle? Why do the fleet that sailed from the endless sea go crazy?"

"Um..."

Cheng Juxiu pondered and said, "We Yu people collectively call Dengzhou east of the East China Sea. The boundless sea outside the East China Sea is called the Endless Sea.

Do you know where the boundaries between the two are?”

"Thousand miles."

Li Ang replied: "Thousand miles east of Dengzhou, there is the endless sea. It is recorded in writing, the farthest boundary that folk ships have ever reached.

However, military fleets have been organized throughout the dynasties to explore further out of the endless sea.

The former Emperor Yang of Sui did not hesitate to use millions of civilians to build a fleet of giant ships for him to find the legendary elixir of immortality on Penglai Immortal Island."

"That's right."

Cheng Juxiu nodded and said, "The East China Sea products provide huge amounts of taxes to the court every year.

However, the endless sea outside the East China Sea contains more wealth and danger.

Every month, civil fleets disappear into the vast sea. Some of them are destroyed by wind and waves and pirates, while others die from demons swimming along the endless sea."
