Chapter 882 - 881: Reaching for the Sky
Although it is said that the scholarly, agricultural, and commercial sectors place merchants at the lowest rank.
But isn’t it true that rarity determines value? Scholars in Jing County are so numerous that they’re worthless, but doing business to the extent of the Tian Family, in Jing County, they’ve already gained some prestige.
Moreover, due to the Lee Family’s influence, the current dynasty has always been very lenient towards merchants, especially the Lee Family, who are engaged in business by imperial decree; the Patriarch of the Lee Family even holds a noble title from the Imperial Court!
Thinking of the Lee Family, Shopkeeper Tian calculated carefully in his mind again, really feeling a bit thorny.
If Wang Yongzhu only relied on the Lee Family, there would still be a need to resolve it.
If Song Chongjin was just an ordinary scholar, without Wang Yongzhu’s ability to earn money and connect with the Lee Family, it would be easier to handle.
As the saying goes, a poor scholar, a poor scholar, not just in the countryside but even in ordinary families, to raise a scholar requires emptying the family assets.
He only needs to say a few good words and offer more silver, then Song Chongjin won’t have to worry about silver for his studies, and he would gain a new connection.
But Wang Yongzhu has established connections with the Lee Family, presumably is not lacking silver, otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to hire two grannies and wouldn’t even glance at the gold necklace sent to her.
It’s natural to have confidence and not crave what she doesn’t lack.
