Unable to wait until the next day, Zhouzhou called Li Yuanming in the evening, telling him about Elder Xiao's visit and casually mentioning that Elder Xiao charges one thousand per hour for teaching students.
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanming couldn't help but gasp in shock, "What's his specialty? Cultivation?"
How else could he charge such an outrageous fee?
Zhouzhou quickly corrected him, "No, no, he is a math teacher. Master, he wants to ask if you'd be willing to give him lessons."
"Can I charge money?" Li Yuanming eagerly asked.
If Elder Xiao charges a thousand, surely he can charge ten thousand, right?
Zhouzhou tilted her little head, considering it for a moment. "Ten thousand is too much. Also, Master, you only know how to teach, but you can't actually do the problems yourself, so it's not worth that much money."
As for Elder Xiao, she heard from Brother Dafu that he was very skilled at solving problems himself.
