Yuan Qing will not change the orange weekly newspaper to the orange daily, first, something that must be there every day, as a producer, it is difficult for her to write, second, since there is a Qiuzhou daily newspaper, don't compete with others for high yields, and improve their own quality is more competitive, third, selling newspapers can not make much money, besides, she has no time to run a restaurant, fourth, newspapers are a thing that is conducive to people's ideological progress, as a businessman, you still have to have a little conscience, you can't use newspapers for business struggles, In the end, it becomes vicious competition, and the ideas that are disseminated will only be harmful and unprofitable.
Think about what modern newspapers write in order to attract buyers. Serious newspapers can't be sold, and those so-called newspapers are in short supply.
Qi Yan followed Yuan Qing to a carpenter's shop. The shop is very small, and a master carpenter in his fifties works in the shop.
"Master, you can help me make something." Yuan Qingdao.
"What's that?" The master looked up and saw two girls who looked like girls.
"No, that's the box on this painting." Yuan Qing took out a piece of paper, and on the paper was drawn the appearance of a modern mailbox hanging on the wall.
"Is this the box?" The master carpenter took the stick figure that Yuan Qing handed him. In the center of the paper is a long, square box, and then around the large box is a close-up of the part. The front of the box has a small door with an elongated horizontal bar on the door.
Anyway, this thing was not difficult for him, an old carpenter, it was too easy. It is to make a long box, and then open a horizontal bar on the box to make a small door.
"Master, this box must be made of hard materials, do you have iron here?" Yuan Qing asked. She wants to make this box similar to a mailbox, which is used to put it in various places in Qiuzhou City, so that people can vote for the orange weekly, the box is unattended, and naturally needs a harder material.
"Girl, old man, I'm a carpenter's shop, and there is no piece of iron, and even outside there are few people who have this thing." Carpenter Road. Iron was a scarce thing for ancient people, and it was generally used to make kitchen knives.
"Then forget it, Master, you can make one for you to see first. We need more than a dozen," Yuan Qingdao. This Qiuzhou City is so big, so naturally you have to do some.
The carpenter nodded, and then got to work. He did it very carefully, not letting go of the slightest detail. Yuan Qing couldn't help but be in awe of him. Among the craftsmen she had seen in her previous life, it was difficult to find such a person who was very serious about craftsmen.
Qiuzhou City is stable and prosperous, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and they also respect their profession very much, no matter what they do, they are taken seriously with a heart, and they dare not be sloppy at all. It is precisely in this way that Akishu is a prosperous but not impetuous.
Half an hour later, an ancient version of a modern mailbox was ready.
The carpenter is very serious, and the quality of the products that come out is directly proportional to his serious attitude.
"That's what it looks like, isn't it?" The carpenter handed the mailbox to Yuan Qing. Yuan Qing took it in his hand and nodded again and again: "Yes, that's it, master, I'm going to trouble you, do a few more." Yuan Qing pondered for a moment, "Let's make twelve first." How much does this cost? ”
"It doesn't cost much, four cents a piece." Carpenter Road.
"Okay, master, you do it first, and I'll come back tomorrow to get the goods."
"Yes." The carpenter nodded repeatedly.
After speaking, Yuan Qing and Qijiu walked out of the carpenter shop.
"Master, where are we going now?" Ki asked.
"Let's see where the boxes are suitable."
So the master and servant walked all over Qiuzhou City to see how many people there were in that place, and where to put the suggestion box of the orange weekly report. Put a few more in densely populated places and a few fewer in less crowded places. In short, it is decided according to the audience of Tangerine Weekly, where to put the mailbox.
The master and servant went around and around, and preliminarily concluded that they should put fifteen mailboxes in Qiuzhou City, and twelve were obviously not enough, but they still forgot it, and they would go to the master carpenter tomorrow to tell it.
Yuan Qing came to a relatively clean place, and she followed Qi Yan all the time. "Where's this?"
"Master, Qi Yan doesn't know." It was the first time she had come to Qiuzhou to hang out, and she definitely didn't know what Qiuzhou City was like.
They were in the middle of two long walls, the road was paved with smooth bluestone, and the sun was setting in the west, and the front and back of the sheep intestine path were all bleak and bleak. The two of them were in the middle of this road, and they couldn't help but feel a chill.
This high-walled compound is supposed to be the residence of the princes and nobles, and they are walking on the edge of the two mansions, that is, the road separated by the wall.
In ancient times, the area of the house was generally very wide and large, and the wall on the edge was naturally high and long, and there was no end in sight to the long road. Yuan Qing said: "It's not a way to go on like this. Will you do light work? ”
"I'll do a little bit of this." Qi Yan nodded, she was a slave who was trained, so she naturally had to have a little ability to be favored by her master. This martial art is a must-have.
"Okay, Qi Qi has worked hard for you, jump on the wall to explore the way." As the saying goes, stand tall and see far.
"Yes." Qi Yan nodded, and after a while, she leaped to the top of the high wall, but it seemed that they were thinking too simply, since this was the mansion where the princes and nobles lived, the guards on the edge of the mansion were not ordinarily strict.
When Qi Yan jumped to the high wall, he alarmed the guards guarding the edge of the mansion.
"Who? There are thieves who trespass into the palace, take her down quickly. For a while, the cries were everywhere, and the peaceful mansion was in chaos in an instant.
Mistakes, really mistakes. Yuan Qing patted her head, why didn't she expect this level.
The master and servant were soon surrounded by a group of guards, and the two girls could not fly with wings on this sheep intestine path. "Bold and mad thieves, they dared to trespass into the palace and take down the two of them." The eldest brother of the guard at the head said. Then several guards stepped forward to hold the master and servant in their hands.
"Don't touch me, we didn't trespass on the palace." Yuan Qing said very calmly.
"Hmph, I don't care what your intentions are, if you dare to crawl around on the edge of the palace, then you have to go back with us and be investigated." The guard said coldly, it was not negotiable.
"We'll go on our own, so we don't need you to hold us along." Yuan Qing saw that Heng and Vertical had to go with them, so he didn't say more.
So a group of guards pressed the two girls to the back door of the palace. After all, they are 'criminals' and can't go through the front door.
It's useless to regret it now. The two girls didn't make any big mistakes, and the guards were still more polite to them. It's just that everything has to have its own process, Qi Yi ripped over the walls of the palace for no reason, and the guards saw that they must arrest them, and then lock them up, and then interrogate them to make sure that they are not so-called criminals, and then release them. It's the rule.
"This big brother, you said this is the palace?" Yuan Qing asked, "To tell you the truth, the two of us are really lost, when we come here, we don't see the head in front or the tail in the back, and there are still high walls on both sides, so I asked my maid to climb to the wall to explore the way." ”
"Then you will be unlucky, anyway, no matter what you do, as long as you climb the wall of the palace, don't think about going out for two or three days." Seeing that Yuan Qing's tone was sincere, the guards saw that the two of them were just a woman, and these two girls looked like young ladies from a big family, so they immediately believed her words.
"It will take two or three days before we can release it?" Yuan Qing's eyes widened, she thought that as long as she went back and asked clearly, she could let go if she was not guilty.
"Yes, don't come around here if you're okay in the future, it's troublesome for us to arrest people." The guard, he was also deeply helpless about this long process. You don't know, some people who have no food come to the palace to sneak around, and then they are caught by the guards, and then this homeless man has a place to eat and sleep justifiably.
Alas~~~ It's really unlucky. Yuan Qing said again, "Is there a prince living in this palace?" ”
"yes." The guards were unimpressed.
"So, how many princes are there in Qiuzhou?"
"There is only one, how many?" The guard glanced at Yuan Qing, and he could ask such a simple question.
"Great, you go and call your prince, I'm ...... Let's just say that I am Yuan Qing, the shopkeeper of Moon Lake Restaurant. Yuan Qingdao said.
"Hmph, I don't care who you are, the prince doesn't have time to see you." The guard glanced at Yuan Qing again, and everyone who was caught said that he was the prince's who, who was who, was that still like words?
"I'm really in a hurry, you can help." Yuan Qing said flatteringly.
The guard seemed to be upright, no longer looking at Yuan Qing's flattering face, and turned his head to the side. They are the direct personal soldiers who follow the prince, and the natural level rate is strict, how can they let people bribe casually?
Yuan Qing was disappointed, these iron-blooded soldiers didn't eat to please that set at all, just stay in prison for three days.
The group entered the mansion through the side gate of the palace and passed through large and small corridors. Yuan Qing wanted to see that cold young man for the first time at this time, she thought, even if that person looked ruthless, as long as she begged him a little, he shouldn't have watched her being imprisoned for three days, besides, they weren't thieves. Ice cube face, hurry up!
It's a pity that they are about to be taken into the dungeon, but they still haven't seen Li Chen, and what's even worse is that they haven't seen a little girl along the way. Oh my God, are all the people in this palace dead?
The dungeon is dark and damp, and when you walk in, you will find large and small cells. There were still some people in some of the cells, all of them men. There are differences between men and women in this era, Yuan Qing and Qi Yan are locked up in a relatively better cell, and there is no one else in this cell except the two of them. It should be said that the entire dungeon is all men, except for the two of them, who are women.
What's even worse is that the talisman that the prince gave to Yuan Qing was the jade pendant, and Yuan Qing didn't even bring it......
By this time the sun had completely set in the west. Moon Lake Restaurant, Yuan Bao is anxiously waiting for his sister, his sister, who didn't come back last night, returned to the restaurant this morning, Yuan Bao went to school. And now it's so late, the boy hasn't seen the girl come back, how can he not be in a hurry?
Yuan Bao was thinking about his sister in his heart, and Yuan Qing was thinking about her brother in his heart
