Chapter 5 Shocking the whole city

In the early morning of June 19th in the eighth year of Baoda (950 AD), the sky in the east was slightly white. Perhaps because of the precious coolness of summer morning, people from all over the city of Jinling started a busy day.

In the open space in front of Changshengfang Gate, Lao Liao, with his upper body naked, pushed the stall with the "Liao Ji Breakfast" to a fixed location every day. After gently lowering the heavy car, he yawned while starting to move the small stool and small table on the car.

"This bird is so hot that it's so hot!" Lao Liao wiped the sweat from his forehead with a rag on his shoulder. He accidentally raised his head and found that someone on the side of the gate had a big piece of white paper. The first line only had four big words "high salary and employment". The words on the white paper were full of words, and a red seal was stamped at the bottom.

Is there another new announcement, why is there no guards of the imperial guards? Old Liao was shocked and threw the stool in his hand into the ground. The craze caused by the previous two imperial announcements has not yet dissipated. Yesterday, diners were quarreling about the lord system!

"Old Liao, why are you shaking up?" Old lady Liao, who was tidying up the dishes at the rear of the car, muttered dissatisfiedly, and came over to straighten the stool.

"Old woman, come quickly, there's something great!" Old Liao suddenly shouted loudly over there.

When I heard Lao Liao shouting in surprise, not only his old woman, but other stall owners who had arrived and a few early diners also immediately surrounded him.

At this moment, Lin Feng woke up on time. He gently kissed Xiao Feier on the forehead, moved his body out of bed, and quietly put on his clothes.

Lin Feng walked outside the study and found that Chen Fei, Ge Chang and his group had also happened to be here, and even the three scholars Lu Jiang, Shu Ya and Wu Qiao were following.

"Let's practice together!" Lin Feng greeted softly and began to run around the Lin Mansion's courtyard wall. The others followed him silently.

When Lin Feng started running, Lao Liao held his old woman's hand and squeezed out of the crowded crowd.

"I think, let our Xianger register in three days!" Lao Liao suddenly said when he returned to his stall.

"Didn't we just agreed to let Xiang'er go to Duan's house to help?" said Old Woman Liao.

"You stupid woman, why are you helping me? You haven't been to be a maid for others? I've told you just now, but you didn't listen? Who built this supermarket? Your Highness Zheng and Lord Lin Feng!" Lao Liao was a little angry and pointed at his old woman and said, "I won't say that King Zheng believes in Buddhism. Just Lord Lin and neighbor Lao Zhang said that Lord Lin is willing to reward craftsmen with his own money, and he also has to erect a monument for them. It's definitely right to follow such people to do things!"

"That's right. Tsk tsk, what do you think Lin Feng looks like? I heard that he was a wandering scholar three months ago! Alas, Xiang'er is so pretty. If only she could have met Lin Feng earlier, we wouldn't have to work so hard every day in our lives!" Old Woman Liao sighed while cleaning up the dishes.

"There are a few Artemisia annua trees growing on your ancestral tomb. Do you really think you have a wealthy life? I said, "Old woman, what dream do you have? A dignified fourth-rank official will fall in love with our daughter?" Old Liao glared and scolded.

"I dare not say that Lord Lin has been in a downturn before? I also heard that his mansion has taken in a woman. I heard that it was a singer from Lord Han Xizai's mansion. Is Xiang'er much innocent than her?" Old Woman Liao said unconvincedly.

"Okay, don't daydream! Let Xiang'er sign up in three days. Now that there are so many people, your business will definitely be good today! Go and serve the old guest." Old Liao muttered, and gently pushed Old Lady Liao, who was stunned.

Like the grand occasion in front of Changshengfangfang, the supermarket advertisements quickly set off a shock and sensation in the whole city of Jinling that was even better than the previous imperial announcements. It is no wonder that in the past, whether it was the announcement of the ten questions for recruitment or the announcement of the business and lord system, they were all prepared for people with culture, ability, wealth, and foundation. Those are like mountains in the distance, which can be seen, but it is difficult for ordinary people to get away from. This recruitment is different, and there is no limit on identity and gender, and everyone can be a possibility. This is the benefit that ordinary people can reach, and naturally it is more attractive to the people.

Therefore, when Lin Feng changed into clean military uniforms and took Ge Chang and Zhang Bin to the palace city, he found that the gates were filled with crowds of people, and he became very happy.

Of course, it is not only the people who see this advertisement that are happy and excited.

Not far from Changshengfang is Changchunfang. Changchunfang is famous for its gold and silver processing site, which is commonly known as the "Bank Street" among the people of Jinling.

Also in front of the gate of the yard, a slim man with a yawn squeezed away everyone, walked to the advertisement and took a look, changed his face suddenly, tore off the advertisement with a "brush" sound, and turned around and left. This person's name is Zhang Defang, and he opened a silverware shop in Changchunfang, but he was neither virtuous nor square. He was a famous miser, and his craftsmen all called him "Zhang Bapi"!

Zhang Defang's action immediately aroused public outrage, and everyone shouted in unison and surrounded him and stopped him.

"What are you doing? People pay high wages, but they don't spend your money, so you are not happy? Zhang Da Rooster!" a man shouted in the crowd. When everyone heard this nickname, they immediately burst into laughter.

"Smile! I'm helping you. It starts at 200 quotas per month, and I'm doing well and getting a commission. Who are you lying? He doesn't make money, he must be lying to others!" Zhang Defang blushed and fought back loudly.

"There is a red seal on it, and the name of Lord Lin Fenglin. What a good official, how could it be fake?" the man shouted loudly.

"What's wrong with Lin Feng? How did it spread the word in the public the previous period? He was just a fame seeker! You can't believe him!" Zhang Defang shouted loudly. He tried hard to push away the person in front of him, but the people didn't move at all, but he was bounced back.

"Master Lin is not such a person! You are talking nonsense. A person who can make the Tang Dynasty introduce the ten questions about recruiting talents, the Lord system, and the Tang Dynasty's reforms can't believe it?" The voice of the crowd shouted back.

"What's wrong with the change? Since ancient times, people who have been clamoring for change have died. Sooner or later, Lin Feng will be beheaded!" Zhang De shouted in distorted eyes, looking at the people in the crowd, and then shouted, "It's really you Chen Mazi, you dare to talk back to me, why are you coaxing me? People say that between the ages of fifteen and thirty, you were over 800 years ago!"

"Zhang Gongji! I, Chen Mazi, are over 30 years old, but the advertisement says that those with skills and those with work experience can appropriately relax their conditions!" The name Chen Mazi was not willing to be outdone and responded loudly.

Zhang Defang was speechless. He used all his strength and pushed the two young men in front of him into a crack. He quickly squeezed out with force. Unexpectedly, the two men suddenly flashed backwards, and they didn't know who stretched out a foot underground. Zhang Defang, who had lost his balance, ignored him and stumbled on the ground again, and immediately fell heavily to the ground with a "bang".

As if he wanted to avoid the plague, a large open space flashed around Zhang Defang's side, and the ball of paper he held in his hand also fell far away.

A group of people shouted, "Pick it up, stick it up again, stick it up!" Several pairs of hands snatched the paper, and squeezed towards the gate as if holding a very precious thing.

Soon, the announcement was posted seriously on the door again with paste.
Chapter completed!
