The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 673

[Chapter 673 The so-called ideal]

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of joyful laughter in the academy.

Soon it was dusk.

The first day of college ended like this.

There were many more people in front of the academy, some were parents who came to pick up their children, and many more were people watching the excitement.

Of course, there is nothing lively or exciting.

Just go to school and get out of school normally.

Then, Fang Xiu and Chang Ru showed their faces in front of everyone, and there was a burst of discussion.

Putting aside the Marquis of Xin’an for the moment, the other one turned out to be Ya Yuan!

This made many people who were holding a wait-and-see attitude immediately make up their mind to send their children to this academy.

However, what they don’t know is that the academy is already full for this term.

If they want to sign up, they can only wait six months.

After watching the children go home, Fang Xiu also returned to Fang Mansion to prepare for matters related to the women’s imperial examination.

In a restaurant in the south of the city.

Several diners gathered together and chatted.

One of them took a sip of wine and said mysteriously: “Brothers, have you heard about what happened on the Third Southeast Road?”

“What can happen over there? It’s just another pirate attack.”

“Brother, don’t worry. Those pirates can’t make a big deal, so they can only make trouble on the three southeast roads. They don’t have any skills at all when they get ashore.”

The man shook his head and said mysteriously: “If it were just pirates, I wouldn’t tell you this.”

“Oh?”

When the others heard this, they became interested and asked, “What is that?”

The man stroked his beard , smiled and said: “Of course it is the golden land.”

“The golden land?”

The expressions of several people became a little strange.

Naturally, they have heard of this golden land.

In the past two days, rumors spread all over the capital that it was magical.

I heard that there is an island in the Western Ocean that is full of gold. Westerners have been there.

There was so much gold that it filled the entire ship. In the end, it sank before it could even return to land because of too much gold.

Only a few people survived.

These people later built ships several times to explore the golden land, but in the end they found nothing.

It sounds a bit like Zhuxuanzhai’s “Peach Blossom Spring”.

However, this time, many people said it was true, but they didn’t know whether it was true or false.

Of course, most people think it is fake.

Golden land, how is that possible?

What about coaxing children?

“You don’t believe it?”

The man who was drinking raised his eyebrows when he saw the expressions on everyone’s faces.

The others smiled.

One of them said: “Brother Fang, you drank too much.”

“I didn’t drink too much, I was sober!”

The man waved his hand and said, “Don’t believe it, this is really true!”

Others The man shook his head, noncommittal.

They have long passed the age of dreaming.

The Golden Land, in their eyes, is a joke.

However, there are still so many people spreading this joke, I really don’t know what they think.

The man called Brother Fang looked around, frowned, leaned forward and said.

“I didn’t believe this news like you at first. The Golden Land was just a joke!

But later, when my cousin returned to Beijing from the Southeast Third Road, I realized that this was true!

You guys I don’t know who my cousin is. He is idle and lazy, and he made a lot of money just because he went to sea once.”

When everyone heard this, they looked at him with indifferent eyes.

Obviously, few people believe these words.

Seeing this, the man waved his hands and said: “Believe it or not, to tell you the truth, it’s not just the Golden Land, but also the Western Ocean. There are treasures everywhere.

My cousin didn’t go to the Golden Land either, he just went to the Western Ocean to visit After a while, the money will be too much to spend!”

“”

Everyone was still suspicious and didn’t believe what this man said at all.

It’s not like no one in their family has gone to Nanyang, and they may not have a good life after returning in a few years.

As for the fact that the Western Ocean

is too far away, they have never heard of it, let alone seen it.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing and hearing is believing.

Naturally they won’t believe something they haven’t seen before.

Seeing that they didn’t believe it, the man waved his hand: “That’s all, I won’t tell you anymore. Anyway, I’m planning to go to the West. I’ll make a fortune while I’m young!”

“Going to the West?”

When the others heard this, their expressions changed. Finally there have been some changes.

They had never seen it during the voyage to the West.

However, they often heard about going to Nanyang.

This is no small matter.

What’s more, pirates are now prevalent on the three southeast roads!

Maybe you’ll encounter pirates just after you go to sea. How can you deal with it?

At that time, both human and financial resources will be lost!

“Brother Fang, you have to think carefully. This voyage to the West and Southeast Asia is not as easy as you think!”

“That’s right, Brother Fang, if nothing else, why not leave your hometown and have no friends ?”

It’s something that ordinary people can endure!”

Others started to persuade.

The man surnamed Fang was like an iron head, lying on the chair, smiling and saying: “How could I not know what you are talking about?

I still say the same thing, with the hard work of the past few years, I can exchange for a lifetime of food and clothing!” Let me ask you, are you satisfied

with

your current life?

If you fail in the imperial examination and study in confusion for decades, what’s the use of barely passing the examination?

In the end, it’s just a handful of loess, it’s better to go out and fight for it while you’re young!

Even if you can’t find that golden land, there will still be a lot of money in the West!”

“This”

everyone looked worried when they heard this! color.

In their eyes, this guy is absolutely crazy!

Is life today not good enough?

Inexplicably, he wanted to go to the Western Ocean.

Leaving aside the exposure to wind and sun and the hardships, there are many pirates in the three southeastern corridors!

“Then what should we do if we encounter pirates?”

someone asked, with a worried look on his face.

The man surnamed Fang waved his hands, looking unconcerned.

“There are not as many pirates as you say. Even if you are really unlucky to encounter them, then you just have to encounter them. It is destiny.

And”

when the man said this, he paused and said with a smile: “I just heard that

As

I said, His Majesty convened the ministers to discuss in Nuange for a whole morning, and the discussion was about how to solve the problem of pirates.

I think it will not be long before the Shenji Camp will go to Southeast Road.

We found a few like-minded brothers and set out together. Together with the brothers from the three southeast routes, we gathered a few more ships and recruited more warriors. Those pirates were not worth mentioning!”

“”

Everyone heard this and was all excited!

Silent, not knowing how to respond.

After all, the Western Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and even the three southeastern realms are all too far away for them.

When the man named Fang saw this scene, he came up again and said mysteriously.

“The most important thing is, I heard that Xin’anhou is recruiting boat workers recently!”
