Bi Mingqi is the grandson of Bi Maokang, the leader of Western studies in the south, and he is also a humble gentleman who is very famous in Jiangnan.

Under the careful teaching of his grandfather, Bi Mingjue, who has been thinking about the world since he was a child, has the greatest ambition to let the people live a good life.

For this reason, he worked as a grain chief in a small county for three years, but no matter how hard he tried, there were still many people who were yellow and thin.

Seeing the fly camp dog Gou in the officialdom, Bi Mingqi couldn't help but be a little discouraged, and because of his grandfather, he could enter the Guozijian, so he left Jinling and went to the capital.

On the way to the capital, Bi Mingjue's enthusiasm was ignited again, and not long after leaving the prosperous Jinling City, it was extinguished by the scenes in Henan and Shandong.

Because of the tyrannical expropriation of corrupt officials and corrupt officials on the common people, and the fact that there are rogues everywhere, Bi Mingqi has seen many scenes that only exist in historical materials.

The white bones are exposed in the wilderness for thousands of miles, there is no rooster crowing, ten rooms and nine emptiness, and Yi Zi cannibalism.

Especially when passing through a wilderness in Henan, the hungry people who couldn't even eat the bark of a tree were cooking a pot of fragrant meat.

Bi Mingqi thought that he had caught some game, so he took a look at it in a carriage under the escort of the family.

It was this glance that made him vomit non-stop, until his snot and tears came out, and he almost vomited out the bitter gall.

Bi Mingjue sat back in the car with a pale face, he had vomited to the point of collapse, and he had not eaten for several days.

Because in that crockpot is a baby's calf.

More than a month passed like this, until he arrived at the boundary of Beizhili, Bi Mingjue, who had no meat and was not happy in the past, never ate a little meat, and only ate vegetarian dishes.

But the moment he stepped into Shuntian Mansion, he was shocked by the prosperous scene in front of him.

The common people here are different from those outside of Shuntianfu, everyone has a ruddy face, and some people have grown fat.

Everywhere outside of Suncheonfu, there is only one at most, hungry beggars in tattered clothes.

Even if the people here are well fed, everyone can wear a decent placket without patches.

Even small handmade workshops are everywhere, and they are much more prosperous than Jiangnan.

Since Bi Mingqi entered Shuntian Mansion, he no longer refused to sit in the carriage, and walked excitedly on this paradise on earth.

It is known as the rule of Wenjing, the rule of Mingzhang, and the rule of Zhenguan in the prosperous era of Qingping.

That's it!

All the way to the capital, Bi Mingjue's feet were full of blood blisters, and the pain was very painful, but his heart was even happier.

Bi Mingqi, who had seen the miserable scenes in Henan and Shandong, couldn't believe that he could witness the prosperity of Qingping in his lifetime.

When Bi Mingqi came to Jingshi, he did not go to Guozijian for the first time, but went to visit the prefect of Shuntian Mansion.

Menzi learned that this person turned out to be the eldest grandson of the general envoy in charge of Yintai, and immediately went in to spread the word, and as a result, the prefect Song Yingjing went to inspect various places again.

Bi Mingqi regretted in his heart that he had not been able to meet this capable minister of the world, and sighed a few words, but heard Menzi say that it was because of the mountain chief of the Jingshi University Hall that the people of Shuntianfu could live a good life with abundant food and clothing.

Bi Mingqi asked for the address of the Beijing Normal University Hall, took a few family members, and hurried to Yongding River.

Coming to the bank of the Yongding River, it is a strange and spectacular scene that has never been seen before.

On the west bank of the wide river, there are large workshops, and smoke rises from each workshop, reaching into the sky.

At the same time, there was a roar that resounded through the plains.

It's like the sound of metal striking, but it's also a bit paradoxical.

Bi Mingqi stood on the bank of the Yongding River and watched for a long time.

The villagers who passed by here were not like the villagers in other places, who cowered and didn't dare to speak when they saw the dignitaries.

He didn't even dare to look at the dignitaries and dignitaries, and left in a hurry.

All the villagers who passed by here showed pride and pride in front of the dignitaries, but they still didn't dare to approach, but they dared to stand in the distance and look at the stunned Bi Mingjue, pointing and pointing.

Not long after, a villager with a taller chest than the average villager, wearing a dark blue placket and a chest dyeed with the three names of Cao's Weaving Factory, passed by.

actually dared to pat Bi Mingjue on the shoulder, patted it, and said with a smile: "If the young master wants to see it, I will take the young master to the factory for a walk." ”

A few family members standing next to him almost didn't pull out their waist knives and cut over.

The young master is the eldest grandson of the political envoy of Zhengsanpintong, where did you get the confidence to be a mud leg, dare to pat the young master's shoulder.

Still taking the young master around?

Isn't it just a big workshop, as a young master, you can enter if you want, you can go out if you want, and you can use a mud leg to introduce you.

This coolie of Cao's weaving factory, a neighbor got married yesterday, and the neighbor had to invite him to be there, saying that he was not going, and the marriage was not enough.

The neighbor has already boasted to his in-laws about Haikou, saying that he invited a sworn brother who works on the banks of the Yongding River.

The coolie had no choice but to find a steward to take a day off from work and attend the marriage of the righteous brother's family.

Today, I was in a hurry to work, and I said a word to this dignitary, and when I saw that he didn't speak, I quickened my pace and left.

After the coolie left, Bi Mingjue, who barely looked away, took a few family members to a steam factory.

Only then did I understand why the coolie said that, there was no introduction from an acquaintance, and he said that it was the eldest grandson of the political envoy, that is, the eldest grandson of the first assistant of the cabinet, and he couldn't get in.

A few family members originally wanted to break through and teach a good lesson to a little squire's dog, but seeing that they had a very good bird gun in their hands, they could only give up this idea.

A few days later, when the family learned that this was Cao Wenzhao's family's factory, the family guarding the door was still an old pawn who had retired from the frontier.

I was afraid for a while, but fortunately I didn't have the impulse at that time.

Bi Mingqi couldn't get in, so he went to the destination Jingshi University Hall, which also does not allow outsiders to enter and exit casually.

Out of caution, the porter went in to report it, after all, he was the eldest grandson of the political envoy.

Who would have thought that Zhu Shun really agreed to let him in.

When Bi Mingqi came in, Zhu Shun didn't talk nonsense, and directly threw him a strategy test question, looking forward to looking at Bi Maokang's grandson.

One of the most important inventors in the history of firearms, he improved the first generation of arquebuses into the second generation of flintlock pistols.

Bi Mingqi finished the strategy test questions and handed them to Zhu Shun, and the final score did not disappoint Zhu Shun.

Another world-class genius.

Zhu Shun is thinking about how to accommodate this blowout genius, not only is his doctrine not a prominent one in Daming, but his reputation in Shilin is not very good.

Before he could speak, Bi Mingqi took the initiative to propose: "Shan Chang Zhu, the student wants to worship you as a teacher, I don't know if the mountain chief can agree." ”

Agreed, 10,000 agreed.

But apprenticeship is not a trivial matter, Zhu Shun said cautiously: "This matter requires the consent of your family." ”

Who knows, Bi Mingqi knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed solemnly.
