    ??For scholars, without books, it is impossible to broaden their horizons.

    It¡¯s different now. Fang Jifan has money. He can buy all kinds of manuscripts and anthologies printed on the market and read them at will.  What's more, Ouyang Zhi and the other three were selected as candidates, and their statuses were completely different. They began to meet friends through literature from time to time, and their knowledge improved a lot.

    Fang Jifan treated these three guys in a free-range way. However, in order to prepare for next year's general examination, Fang Jifan gave them a lot of questions. There is more time now, but Fang Jifan clearly knows the questions for next spring's general examination.  In the twelfth year of Hongzhi's reign, Emperor Hongzhi ordered Li Dongyang, Prince Shaobao's Minister of Rites and a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, and Cheng Minzheng, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, to be the examiners of the joint examination. Fang Jifan also knew all about the joint examination questions and palace examination questions.  .

    However, this time there will be a small episode in the examination, which will involve the examiner Cheng Minzheng and Jiangnan talented scholar Xu Jing and Tang Yin's imperial examination fraud case.

    This is a unique test.

    Fang Jifan changed his mind and smiled slightly.

    As for Ouyang Zhi and the others, Fang Jifan has nothing to worry about, because he really won't cheat, and he doesn't plan to have anything to do with any future examiners. He only needs to ask some 'questions', and then hide the real questions in the sea of ??questions.  , just let three students go to composition training.

    Ouyang Zhi and the three of them really worked extremely hard to prepare for the exam. From early morning to midnight, they worked hard on solving questions and reading crazily, without daring to slack off in the slightest.

    I didn¡¯t expect that they would have such leisurely feelings today.

    Fang Jifan looked at Ouyang Zhi and the others with an expression like "I am your father". He sat down and dusted himself off, "Oh, hello, why don't you study today?"

    The three of them looked at each other, then looked at their master Fang Jinglong.

    Fang Jinglong grinned and said: "My father has had a sudden thought recently. Well, that's it. Son, my father went to check the account the day before yesterday. Hey there is a lot of money missing. If this continues, how can we get it? How can we sell it?"  Ebony's millions of taels of silver, because of you, the cash at home is almost empty, leaving only a shop in Dongshi and a village outside the city. Successor, my father is looking forward to you.  If you don¡¯t expect anything else, you just have to protect our shop and property. Don¡¯t be angry. Don¡¯t be angry. What I want to say is that this is all my fault as a father. In the past, I neglected to teach you. For the sake of our Fang family¡¯s last resort.  A little family wealth, so as a father, you must set an example.¡±

    He looked at Ouyang Zhi and the others with admiration and said with relief: "These three disciples have read books. People who have read books have different ideas. What is enlightenment? Enlightenment means teaching by words and deeds."  , right, Ouyang Tusun"

    Ouyang Zhi nodded in shame: "Yes, yes, yes, what the master said is right."

    Fang Jinglong spread his legs, sat upright, and said excitedly: "Today, as a father, I will teach you through words and deeds how to live frugally."

    Fang Jifan was stunned for a moment as he listened, and he dared to bring in foreign aid.

    It¡¯s just that Fang Jifan looked at Ouyang Zhi¡¯s three apprentices, your sister, you are my apprentices, but you went to teach your mentor¡¯s father to deal with your mentor?

    When Ouyang Zhi saw En Fu¡¯s aggressive gaze, he was immediately frightened and did not dare to speak out. He quickly lowered his head and said, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ deserves to die."

    Fang Jifan smiled in his heart, these three people dared not show off their arrogance in front of him, could he be so scary?  Hey, in fact, I am a motivated young man just like you.  However, he still had to look like a playful smile, with his feet raised, his nostrils turned upward, snorted, and his eyes only looked at the beams.

    Fang Jinglong laughed. He was afraid that his son would feel uncomfortable if he taught by words and deeds, so he tried his best to use a more tactful tone so as not to irritate his son.

    ¡°My son still has a brain disease, so don¡¯t over-stimulate him.

    "This is a teaching by words and deeds, cough cough To put it bluntly, it is to be diligent and frugal in running the house. How to run the house diligently and frugally? It means that money should not be spent and cannot be spent carelessly. Of course, Fan'er, my father did not say that you spent money carelessly.  , The meaning of being a father is just like the weather now. It¡¯s so cold that you have to burn charcoal. If you don¡¯t burn charcoal, won¡¯t you freeze to death? Right?¡±

    Fang Jifan looked at his father in confusion. He really couldn't understand what the most failed parenting expert in history wanted to do.

    When Fang Jinglong said this, he lamented in his heart, he was poor, really poor. Only after he checked the account of the accounting room, he realized that these millions of silver coins were spent like running water. Not only that, it was also embarrassing. Now  Everyone on the street doesn't know that his son has become a money-spreading boy.

    "We can't go on like this. This house, I'm afraidFan'er has been defeated for several years, so we must learn from the painful experience and let Fan'er be the head of the family before we realize that firewood and rice are expensive.

    "But look, the price of carbon in this season is really rapid. One pound has risen to more than 40 cents. It's really terrible." Fang Jinglong looked distressed, but then he smiled again: "Since you have to take care of the family, then  You have to save money. As a father, you can't let your family stay cold, but you can't spend money carelessly. Fan'er, look at this"

    He pointed his hand towards the brazier on the ground.

    Fang Jifan then noticed that the brazier under his feet was steaming, as if it was not burning charcoal, but briquettes.

    "This, do you know what it is?" Fang Jinglong hesitated.

    Fang Jifan blurted out: "Anthracite"

    "Huh?" Fang Jinglong was stunned: "Haha, my son is well-informed. Haha, to tell you the truth, this anthracite coal has only become popular in the past two days. Someone sent a few kilograms to the UK.  Sir, the British government has tried it, and the effect is very good. Compared with charcoal, it is more interesting. Fan'er, do you feel very warm now? This anthracite is really good. Of course, this is not the point, the point is  , it is cheap, and my father spent a lot of effort to buy it. It is said that it is only a trial sale now, and only a few hundred kilograms are supplied. My father bought it to tell you a truth, you should spend it.  Money needs to be spent, and you can¡¯t let yourself freeze and starve. However, there is really no need to spend money that shouldn¡¯t be spent. Think about it, if you are burning this anthracite coal now, is there a way to see those people who burn charcoal?  Does it feel like the biggest fool in the world?"

    "" Fang Jifan suppressed his blush and hesitated to speak.

    Fang Jinglong seemed to feel that his words and deeds were effective, and he immediately cheered up and said with joy: "When buying things, you have to buy high-quality and low-priced things. This is the truth. In fact, I spent so much money with you to buy Xishan.  This wasteland in Xishan is like a person who buys charcoal. People will make fun of him if he buys it Can you understand what it means to be a father? "

    Fang Jinglong blinked desperately, hoping that his son would wake up.

    Fang Jifan shook his head: "I don't quite understand."

    "This is still unclear" Fang Jinglong slapped his thigh, a little anxious, and wanted to continue to explain.

    Fang Jifan was already very annoyed, but he said casually: "But this anthracite is produced in Xishan."

    Fang Jinglong laughed loudly: "Coal is produced in Xishan, um you said eh? Anthracite coal is produced in Xishan"

    Fang Jinglong¡¯s eyes widened in disbelief.

    Fang Jifan slapped the document with a bang, which made Fang Jinglong and Ouyang Zhi startled. Fang Jifan said: "This anthracite coal is indeed produced in Xishan. Dad you are prodigal. This coal is in the hands of your son."  Here, it's worthless, why do you ask someone to spend money to buy it? Just pick up things that grow in your own land, it's worthless! You still spend money? How can I have a father like this, who earns dozens of dollars?  Money, you have ruined it like this. Now I finally understand why others call me a prodigal son. When you drink water, remember the source, and get to the bottom of it. This is all because of your misaligned upper body and crooked lower body. You led me astray!"

    "" Fang Jinglong's old face turned red at first. This righteous rebuke seemed to him very reasonable. This teaching by words and deeds seemed to have failed.

    But immediately, Fang Jinglong's body shook.

    ?????????????????????????? Wrong.

    Is coal produced in Xishan?

    So Xishan belongs to the Fang family again.

    is it possible?

    "Fan'er, don't scare me?" Fang Jinglong muttered, "We are not joking."

    Fang Jifan yelled: "Are you kidding? If not, how would I know about anthracite!"

    Suddenly, Fang Jinglong's body seemed to be trembling as a result of conditioned reflex.

    He first touched his forehead and felt a little dizzy.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    But then, his eyes widened like bells, and he burst into laughter as loud as rubble: "Hahahaha my ancestors were virtuous, and I, Fang Jinglong, can teach my children well!"

    Fang Jifan looked at Fang Jinglong strangely, and a terrible thought came to his mind. His shamelessness must be inherited from his ancestors. Well it must be so.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
