In later generations, some students often take the opportunity to make friends with foreigners or act as pen pals. They basically want to learn foreign languages ​​by using this. When they achieve something, they kick away...

This routine is impossible to have in the era when Confucianism is unaborted.

"Baisang Japanese literature is good. If you have a month or two, you will be no less than that of Japanese. I will apply to the school to see if you can expand the quota for public-paid overseas..."

One afternoon, I was having a meal in the canteen, Fujino Hachihei said.

Bai Gui expressed his gratitude.

"I have a younger brother named Yan Jiulang. He teaches medicine in Sendai and is a lecturer in anatomy. I don't know what's going on now. He was once admitted to Dongda University and is the pride of our family. Unfortunately..."

Fujino Hachihei sighed and said, "I believe in Baisang's character. If Baisang can stay in Japan, I hope you can go to my hometown and send me a letter to my home. My home is in Fukui Prefecture, Kyoto Prefecture..."

"I have remitted money to my family before, but I don't know what happened. My family hasn't replied for a long time, but I can't live without this place."

He coughed a few times and said in a nagging manner.

At this time, the carriage and horses were slow.

The first railway in Qin Province will not be built until the 23rd year of the Republic of China. Therefore, the time spent on traveling from the provincial capital to Japan was amazing.

"If I stayed in Japan, I would go to Fukui Prefecture..."

Bai Gui hesitated for a moment and chose to agree. The reason why Fujino Hachihei was willing to apply for a public place to stay in Japan was probably because of his respect for Mr. Fujino during this period, which made Fujino Hachihei feel that he is a good person and will agree to something.

If you are a student in other Japanese crash courses, you may ignore it.

"Thank you, Bai Sang."

Fujino Hareji looked at the cherry blossom trees outside the window, planting two rows, very neatly, ancient trees with hundreds of years of history. It was early April, and the cherry blossom season was in bloom. The small pink and white petals were like hazy drizzle drizzle beside the passing road, seeping into the cracks of the stone slabs, turning into spring mud, and the light fragrance of flowers secreted people's hearts.

The cherry blossoms were first planted in the Qin and Han Palace Gardens. In the third year of Daye, the Sui envoy Ono girl sent the Sui Dynasty to take the cherry blossoms from Chang'an to Japan. To this day, cherry blossom trees are still planted in many places in Chang'an.

I bid farewell to Fujino Hachiheiji, and he took half a day off that day.

Shiwuzhai in the Normal School not only offers Japanese crash courses, but also has some astronomy, geography, water conservancy, Gezhi and other classes. However, except for some necessary subjects, you can choose to take other subjects, and whether you learn it depends on yourself.

After Bai Gui entered Shiwuzhai, he also selected a few practical courses that he was interested in and made great progress every day.

He returned to the dormitory and took out the letters sandwiched in the booklet, which were brand new and as usual.

This is exactly a letter Mr. Zhu wrote to him before leaving.

"Shop, you have a watch here..."

Walking out of the normal school, he came to a well-decorated western-style goods shop, which was close to the academy gate, and was a relatively high-end place nearby. Many wealthy families were traveling around, and some blonde and blue-eyed Westerners could also be seen walking in and out.

When you walk in, it is magnificent and has a British architectural style.

"Sir, you want to buy something."

When treating different guests, there were different clerks. When they saw that Bai Gui was a Chinese and a teenager, the Chinese were entertaining him. The person who was entertaining a middle-aged man, hiding his big braid under his hat, which was a bit funny.

"Is there a table?"

“It’s a watch!”

He pondered for a while and considered his words.

General Zhang is a student who graduated from the Zhenwu School in Japan. He is a soldier. The best gift is the best choice for a watch. Whether it is war or training, a punctual watch is essential.

Although he could also exchange precision watches from the mirror, at this time, even ordinary mid-range watches in later generations were much more sophisticated than watches at this time. After all, the development of the steel industry is different, and the craftsmanship level has also improved for a hundred years...

Can't explain the origin.

"We have Vacheron Constantin here, which is a brand worn by Emperor Napoleon, with three hundred silver dollars..."

The minister was talking.

Soon after, he was interrupted by Bai Gui. He felt that the price was too expensive and was not something he should have given, so he said, "Forget it, get a pen, a good pen."

He thought about it and said that although the watch is expensive, he is now just using the friendship between Mr. Zhu and General Zhang to ask him to teach Japanese. It is not good to give him too expensive gifts. A watch is slightly better, so it takes hundreds of oceans. Pens are the best. Pens are not cheap. At this time, at least five oceans can you buy a good fountain pen, and giving a pen is also in line with his identity.

Scholars are also scholars who embrace new learning.

Giving a pen is the most suitable.

He had only considered General Zhang's identity before, but he had some neglected his identity.

"Okay! Sir!"

The minister smiled and was not angry. Although he was a little disappointed, if the boy bought a watch, he would have a lot of commission. As for whether he could buy a watch, it was just a person's temperament, and he could tell that he was a good fortune. In terms of eyesight, it was not only a person's clothes, but also a person's eyes were slap and blind.

He is naturally elegant with poetry and writing spirit!

Besides, in this Qing Dynasty, who dared to cause trouble in the shops opened by foreigners?

"This pen is a Parker pen from Ameikanguo, with eight silver dollars!" The minister pulled out a precious wooden box from the shelves, which was lined with silk. It was an excellently manufactured fountain pen.

"Not bad! Parker pen, famous!"

Bai Gui raised his eyebrows and said.

This Parker pen is all black, and at the cap and ends of the pen are brass, simple and atmospheric.

He paid the money and took the pen without bargaining.

The provincial capital government office is also on the south gate, not far from the normal school. However, Bai Guinian was not yet familiar with Japanese, so he went to disturb General Zhang. It was inevitable that he was a little unbeautiful, so he postponed it for more than ten days before he came to visit.

When he arrived at the government office, he was led to the ear room by the yamen runners.

"You wait here for a while, Zhang Shan will come over after writing." The yamen runner was very polite. He only knew that General Zhang returned from studying in Japan. Although it is just a copy of the yamen office now, this official position is the same as the chief clerk of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He has a low position and a heavy weight. He only needs an appropriate opportunity to let go and will be a high-ranking official.

Those who can have friendship with General Zhang are definitely not something he can mess with.

These scholars, one by one, looked alone, but there were connections behind them.

"This is some snack you can eat first."

The yamen runner took the snacks and delivered them to Bai Gui’s table waiting, and said to please him.
