Chapter 419 Is everyone in Kyoto literate?

Chapter 419: Everyone in Kyoto is literate?

Wen Mianmian's words were ambiguous, and she only said that it was because Duke Zhenguo went to investigate Xibo. He did not mention any words about the salt road patrol. Then he sighed, "My prince was underestimated by the court. When he saw us, he was smiling, and when he saw Duke Zhenguo, he was respectful."

The sisters-in-law didn't doubt her words because what she said was very true and reasonable. But the more she did, the more worried Jiang Shu felt, and she was about to ask Wen Mianmian in private.

The topic soon came to the Dongshu Good Appreciation Conference, "You didn't reveal any wind when you left Beijing."

Wen Mianmian was a little proud and said about Wen Chuncheng, "That was the moment I thought of it. It shows the importance of this journey of thousands of miles. If I don't take this trip, I would never have imagined it."

Thinking that the Ministry of Revenue had already intervened in this matter, the sisters-in-law didn't continue to say anything. After a change of the subject, they talked about Lin Ruozhang. Wen Mianmian was helpless. Her sister-in-law were afraid that they had been suffocating at home in the past few months, so they really wanted to know everything.

In desperation, she explained it again, saying it was a misunderstanding.

The whole party was full of sisters-in-law and several others asking questions, Wen Mianmian answered one by one. At the end, Xia Shengge laughed first, "Okay, let's not ask anymore, it's like interrogating sixth brother and sister."

The few people were stunned for a moment and laughed. Jiang Shu joked, "What's the solution? How long has it been since we left? When the door was closed, we were deaf and blind. How could there be more news from the sixth brother and sister? It's interesting."

He Qian also agreed, "The sixth brother and sister are busy all day long, and we are squatting at home and are about to get moldy."

"I won't talk about my sixth brother and sister. Even Yunyang is very busy all day long. I heard that the escort agency I did is good business and it's good to launch popsicles. I'm so greedy, but I'm just staring at me and can't be greedy for the cold."

When it comes to this, people feel indescribable. It turns out that the sixth brother and his wife are busy making money. Now even Yunyang has joined in, as if he has some magic power, and he can't get out once he goes in.

The sister-in-law talked lively, and the conversation between the brothers was two more serious. They knew more than the sister-in-law. Hua Jingyun smiled bitterly, "The brothers know me, they are not interested in the affairs in the court, and they are not so clear about it. Cheng Xibo Mansion has been entrenched in Jiangnan for many years and I don't know how many officials have been in contact with. This time, Duke Zhenguo wanted to investigate him with a determined heart. In the end, no one knows what he could find out."

Hua Jingsheng frowned slightly. His brother-in-law was the inspector of Jiangnan. He did not lend him any light on weekdays, and hoped that he would not implicate him this time.

The brothers said something for half a day and continued to stay here to drink in the evening. They hadn't gotten together for a few months to have a drink. The few of them were in high spirits. Wen Mianmian said with great concern, "They are all people with poor alcohol content. What should I do if I get drunk later?"

Xia Shengge stroked his stomach, "It won't be over for a while, so why don't you go back first, you have big belly, I won't feel at ease if I go back late."

The same thing happened to the few people. Having a child is important for children. Men and others can sleep on the ground all night when they get drunk, and the weather will not be cold.

Wen Mianmian nodded, and she also wanted to go back to sleep.

Waiting for the sisters-in-law to leave, the brothers became more happy, and raised their glasses and shouted loudly: "It's better for brothers and sisters to go back first. We brothers haven't been together for a long time. Come on, come on, don't go back tonight, drink."

He still has beautiful women in his house. He originally wanted to arrange arrangements for his younger brothers, but now he thinks about it, forget it.

Not to mention the other siblings, he can't stand even the sixth siblings.

After drinking a sip of hot-screaming wine, Hua Jingsheng sighed very much, "We are not as comfortable as our sixth brother. The life of our sixth brother is simply envious of others."

Hua Jinghui smiled and joked, "I heard that my sixth brother sleeps until the sun is noon every day. Why is it so beautiful? Speaking of which of us sleeps until the sun is noon?"

"Whenever it is not black, it will get dark."

Everyone smiled and shook their heads. This was really unparalleled.

They are working for their father and emperor, and they must be diligent and diligent. The sixth brother is the boss himself, and he does whatever he wants, all depends on his heart.

“It’s really enviable.”

Hua Jingyun reached out to give me a few full pieces, "It's unreasonable for you to be disrespectful to your brothers. This time I brought some local wine back from Jiangnan. Next time my brothers were invited to drink with me," he said.

"Hahahaha, okay."

The few people laughed, "The sixth brother's mansion is a treasure land."

That night, Hua Jingyun did not return home. The drunk brothers hugged each other and said some old-fashioned words, crying and laughing. Xia Shengge had no choice but to send someone to pass on messages to each family. When the news reached the Annan Prince's Mansion, Wen Mianmian had already fallen asleep.

As the Dongshu Good Appraisal Meeting approaches, from the suburbs of Beijing to Kyoto, it looks like a bustling and prosperous era. Every day, large ships with cargo come from afar. Countless goods dock here, piled up with warehouses at the docks, and each family is out of business, because the inn in the city is now hard to find.

All the people with wealthy houses in the city came to visit the door, and all the vacant houses were rented out for a short time. Faced with such a situation, the Ministry of Revenue came forward and requisitioned the inns in Kyoto and the palaces that received foreign envoys. At least they could barely resettle these merchants.

Every teahouse and winery business is booming. The peddlers in the streets and alleys want to sleep and want to walk two more streets. The ice-selling shops are shipped from morning to night. Rich and wealthy businessmen have to enjoy wherever they are.

Just when the people in Kyoto were so busy, the new newspaper announced that the Kyoto Youth Six Art Competition would be held in Kyoto Garden in three days to select the Kyoto Little Prodigy.

"This newspaper is interesting. How can I participate in the Youth Six Arts Competition?"

When the person who said this was a foreign merchant, the local natives suddenly became hard and said enthusiastically, "Sir, have you come from another place? Have you ever seen a newspaper before?"

Seeing that someone took the initiative to solve the problem, these outsiders also had a good temper and were not ashamed to ask.

Local natives said in a show-off tone: "This newspaper is amazing. Do you know who the big boss behind the newspaper is?"

The outsiders shook their heads in cooperation, and the natives began to talk endlessly, and the outsiders were stunned.

Afterwards, they had a question, "Everyone in Kyoto knows literacy?"

In Kyoto, students gather here at the foot of the emperor, so it is normal for a few more literate people.

The local natives were even more proud. After a long sigh, he said: "From the first issue of newspapers to the present, there are fewer people who can read literacy in Kyoto than before. The newspaper is cheaper and you can buy one for a penny. Children from poor families slowly recognize the words on the newspaper. The court issued a government order. There are many private schools in the city, so it is convenient for children to learn to read words. It is not expensive to use the slap."

"It's the old woman who sells vegetables that read the newspaper too much, and she also recognizes a few more words."

"Besides, you don't know what's written on it, but it's okay if you don't know what you are blind, can you not read a few words?"

There is still some tonight, please support
