In the realm of great teachers, when they were giving lessons, they would maximize the effect of each of their classes. Naturally, the more people attending, the better.
However, Sun Mo didn't care about this. What he requested was for the students to wake up early. From his point of view, one's talent could be bad or average, but one must not be lacking in hard work. If they couldn't even wake up early for his class, it just meant that they weren't qualified to hear the lecture.
"Besides, old man, 500 taels of silver isn't enough to purchase a seat for Teacher Sun's lecture!"
The student added, "1,000 taels, no haggling. If you are very lucky and Teacher Sun chose you to ask him a question, you have to add another red packet with 1,000 more taels!"
"So expensive?"
