Yu Shinan, who was chatting happily with Fang Xuanling, was suddenly pulled out by Zhang Feng. He was speechless.
But he still nodded.
"The braised meat you ate was made by this kid. The food factory at the foot of the mountain is where he made it."
Ouyang Xun and the others knew about the braised meat, but they didn't know that it was made by this kid. After all, when Yu Shinan gave them the braised meat, he didn't say where it came from.
They thought that it was something newly invented by Yu Shinan.
When Yu Shinan finished speaking.
Zhang Feng cupped his fists gratefully and quickly struck while the iron was hot. "Respected teachers, you know the current situation of the Tang Dynasty. You also know that in order to control the locust plague, Lao Li bought a large number of pigs, chickens, and ducks to eliminate the locusts!"
"But now you see, the locusts are gone, but the food is gone too. People don't have enough to eat, so how can we feed them? So this kid is bold. Instead of letting them starve to death, why not make them into delicacies on the table? It can also let the poor people eat more. What's wrong with this? "
Ouyang Xun's anger calmed down a little.
"Although what you're doing is not befitting of a great scholar and will be criticized by many scholars in the world, what you're doing is not wrong! Tomorrow, we will help you clarify this matter, but you must not do this in the future! "
When Zhang Feng heard this, he hurriedly bowed.
"This student understands!"
"Let's drop this matter for now. But shouldn't you give me an explanation for what happened in Chang 'an yesterday?"
"Don't you know the price of the rice paper? Or do you think you're so great because you're rich? You even put the name of White Deer College on it. Do you think it's glorious? "
When Zhang Feng heard this, he said, "This student doesn't know what he did wrong. This student did this to promote the new paper I just invented. On the other hand, I want to promote White Deer College from a more diverse perspective. I want to let more students from poor families see hope."
"However, there is something that is hard for me to say …"
After Zhang Feng finished speaking, he hastily scanned the crowd and said, "Master, you should know that I have given my all for the sake of this academy. However, the construction of this academy is inseparable from money and food. With so many people and so many mouths to feed, I am helpless!"
"So I came up with this idea …"
"Even though the publicity this time was a little too big, and it even offended you, master, this was definitely not my intention. It was Li Gan and the others who acted on their own. I didn't know that you had returned to Chang 'an yesterday …"
"Don't know? If you don't know, you can do this? Do you know that if we meet other people, boy, it won't be us who will go up the mountain today. It will be everyone in Chang 'an City, including Hongwen Guan and Imperial College! "
"You still don't know your mistake? You're still trying to force your words onto others? If it weren't for your instructions, how could they not know the severity of the matter? "
The more Ouyang Xun spoke, the angrier he got. He wanted to raise his hand and punch someone.
However, Chu Suiliang quickly stopped him.
"Brat, you know the price of this piece of paper. You also know how important it is to the scholars of the world. What you did yesterday was indeed too much. This is equivalent to telling the people of the world that the things you think are incomparably precious are worthless to you! Do you know the consequences? "
Zhang Feng was stunned when he heard that.
"But this thing is worthless to begin with, isn't it?"
"Pfft —!"
When the people who were drinking tea heard that, they couldn't help but spit out the tea in their mouths.
They had seen people who bickered, but they had never seen someone who bickered like that.
'Worthless?'
'So you're saying that us old folks and the world's literati can't even afford paper?'
'This is such a precious thing, and you don't care about it at all?'
'What does that mean?'
'Emperor Yang of Sui ordered people to wrap silk around trees to pave the way. I'm sure he had the same idea as you, right?'
'It's worthless too!'
Ouyang Xun was so angry that he was shaking all over.
"Fine, fine, fine. It's worthless. That's right! You're right. You have a big family now, and you have properties all over the world. Even if you don't have money, you can sell that baijiu recipe and become rich again. Old Man is poor. Of course, he can't compare to you! "
His sarcasm was a little too much.
It was also very obvious.
Anyone who knew these people knew that they were the richest people in the world. Not to mention Ouyang Xun, even Yu Shinan, whom Zhang Feng knew before, was a first-class family in the Han Dynasty.
Who in Jiangnan didn't know the Yu family?
Almost half of Jiangnan had the surname Yu, right?
'How dare you call yourselves poor?'
'If you're poor, you can sell a piece of calligraphy for tens of thousands of gold.'
'You call that poor?'
When Zhangsun Wuji and the others saw that Ouyang Xun and the others were really angry, they couldn't sit still anymore and hurriedly stood up.
Zhangsun Wuji coughed and said, "Fengzi, stop messing around. Apologize to Mr. Xin Ben and the others first."
Zhangsun Wuji was indeed the number one peacemaker in the Tang Dynasty.
He basically didn't participate in any arguments, but when it came to smoothing things over, he would be the first to stand up.
When Zhang Feng saw Zhangsun stand up, he suddenly realized what was going on. 'What the hell am I doing?
I'm courting death! '
If he angered these old fellows, he would be dead for sure.
