Chapter 570 Leaving Jinling
Sun Shan left behind the necessary dry food and asked Shi Gou to pack up the rest.
His status is different now. When he goes out, the people he meets are either rich or powerful people, or at least people from small families.
Commoners like Shi Gou only seem to know Shi Gou.
This kid Shi Gou is really lucky. He actually knows Sun Shan, so he takes the most advantage of Sun Shan.
The ten dogs kowtowed solemnly to Sun Shan, and were then led home by Sun Dali and Gui Ge'er.
As for Uncle An, Sun Shan asked them not to come over to say goodbye.
He also entrusted the small courtyard in Jinling to Wan Songjin to take care of.
Sun Shan thought that Doctor Wan was a seasoned veteran, a fox. This incident might be affected, but it wouldn't be a drastic change like other families.
The small courtyard was handed over to the Wan family for care, so that his courtyard would not be taken away along with the house during the raid.
As for renting it out, Sun Shan never thought that the rent received from such a small courtyard was dispensable, so he simply decided not to rent it out.
I said goodbye to everyone I knew one by one, and bought a lot of exquisite and easy-to-carry specialties.
As for the food that He Dapang requested, Sun Shan would definitely not bring it. The journey was long and arduous, and even if the food could last for several months, it would still be a burden, so Sun Shan refused to carry it.
Two days later, Sun Shan stood on the dock, watching the people and goods coming and going, feeling filled with emotion.
Apart from Changsha, Jinling is the second place where he has stayed the longest. Now he is leaving, and he feels a little reluctant.
As for too many memories, there aren't any.
No matter how good everything is outside, it is not as good as a low bed in Sunjia Village.
Sun Shan's good friend Song Junhua reluctantly said, "Brother Sun, we are parting this time, and I don't know when we will meet again."
Song Junhua picked up a willow branch and handed it to Sun Shan.
Sun Shan looked at the willow branch steadily, and after much hesitation, he said, "Brother Song, the new policy is unstoppable. Don't struggle."
Song Junhua was stunned, nodded and said, "I feel the same way, but I can't help myself."
Sun Shan didn't know what to say, so he condensed his thousands of words into one sentence: "Brother Song, we'll meet in the capital."
Song Junhua held Sun Shan's hand tightly, nodded seriously and said, "Okay, Brother Sun, we'll see you in the capital."
Wan Songjin helped Gui Ge'er, Sun Dali, and Sun Dingnan move all of Sun Shan's luggage onto the boat.
With red eyes, she said, "Brother Sun, you must return to Jinling."
Sun Shan smiled, then his face turned cold and he said seriously: "Study hard. The college entrance examination will be in two months. If you pass the examination and become a scholar, my careful teaching will be worth it."
Wan Songjin hung his head and said timidly, "Brother Sun, I understand."
I wanted to express my reluctance to Sun Shan, but Sun Shan looked cold and ruthless and said "Entrance Examination".
Wan Songjin's reluctance disappeared in an instant, leaving only fear and anxiety.
If he failed the college entrance examination again this time, he would be ashamed to see Sun Shan.
Huang, the steward of the Huang family merchant ship, walked out and said, "Mr. Sun, it's time to set off."
Life is rarely filled with joyous gatherings, but with many separations.
Sun Shan stepped onto the deck, waved to his friend, and walked into the cabin.
Gui Ge'er said sadly: "Brother Shan, although my time in Jinling is not long, I have to leave now. I am very reluctant to let you go."
Sun Dingnan looked at the river and said sadly, "When I was in Jinling, I thought about going home. Now that I am going home, I think about Jinling again. Alas, this journey is too long. After this separation, I don't know when I will be able to come back."
Even if they come back, it will be for a short time and they will not stay as long as this time. After all, they are just passers-by and Jinling is not their home.
Sun Dali was still muttering: "What I miss most is the orchids in the flower garden. They are gone just like that. Hey, they are all money."
Sun Dali also blamed the emperor for his new policy, which resulted in the destruction of all the orchids he had carefully cultivated.
Although he didn't know why scholars liked orchids so much that they could only be looked at but not eaten, it all cost money and he felt sorry for the money.
Sun Dali said, "Ashan, let's go back to Sunjia Village and continue growing orchids. What do you think?"
Sun Shan smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, but Uncle Dali, who have you thought about selling it to?"
Sunjia Village is a remote and poor place, and transportation is extremely inconvenient. Even thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and hundred-year-old ginseng cannot be sold at a high price because there is no one to buy them.
The reason why the Sun family grows New Year flowers is that they can sell them once a year and make a profit once a year, and the New Year flowers are affordable for ordinary people.
If orchids are planted, the target customers will be different. They will be either rich or noble, and after-sales service will be provided. This cannot be achieved in Sunjia Village.
The important thing is that Guangnan has very good weather, which is most suitable for growing flowers. There are so many different kinds of flowers that the competition is very fierce. If you want to sell well, you must not only grow them well, but also make them fresh, and provide five-star service.
Sun Shan really had no confidence that he could be better than others in growing flowers in Guangzhou.
Sun Dali immediately hung his head and sighed, "Oh, the location of our Sunjia Village is really bad. It's inconvenient to go anywhere. Our ancestors really made a mistake in choosing this place."
After thinking for a while, he said, "When I get back, I will ask my few bone-changing dragons to study hard for me, so that they can study out of Sunjia Village, out of Huangyang County, and all the way to Guangzhou Prefecture."
Gui Ge'er rolled his eyes secretly, realizing that Uncle Dali was now getting cocky and kept telling the boys in the family to study hard.
Do you really think they can leave Sunjia Village just by studying?
Don’t you see the talents of the boys in their family?
hey~
I heard from Aunt Li that none of her grandsons are smart. Their brains and bodies are like their father's. They only have brute strength but no brains.
Gui Ge'er thought that the boy from Uncle Dali's family looked exactly like Uncle Dali, and it was obvious that he was not a student. He was most suitable for moving bricks, and he would move bricks in the future.
Humph, everyone thinks that their kid will be as talented, intelligent and handsome as his brother Shan.
If there is no mirror, you can pee and look at the mirror.
Gui Ge'er looked at Sun Shan stealthily, then looked at himself.
Well, Gui Ge'er thinks he is a good book boy.
At first he was a page boy of a scholar, now he is a page boy of a juren, and in the future he will definitely be a page boy of a jinshi.
A son resembles his father, so it is obvious that his son will also become a good scholar.
Sun Shan had no idea that Gui Ge'er could have such a lot of imagination, and he was very pleased that Sun Dali could have such awareness.
He said encouragingly, "Uncle Dali, you are right. It is always a good thing for you to read more books. Reading makes you wise and intelligent. If you read more books, you can earn more money even if you work outside."
Seeing that Sun Shan also agreed with him, Sun Dali said happily: "Ashan, I feel the same way. I have learned a lot from traveling with you. When my son grows up, I will let him stay with you, too. Haha, please don't despise him."
Sun Dingnan and Gui Ge'er stared at Sun Dali with wide eyes, then looked at Sun Shan who was smiling, and finally the two looked at each other.
They all gnashed their teeth and cursed in their hearts: Sun Dali, you are so cunning. He is trying to grab a position in advance, and they also want their sons to stay with Sun Shan.
The two men immediately pushed Sun Dali away, determined to reduce his contact with Sun Shan.
This guy is as cunning as a fox, so he might as well replace them without them noticing.
