With the house in hand, Chen Fei finally had a home in Chang'an City, which was also a matter of his heart, and he officially stepped into the circle of elites in Chang'an.

Chen Fei's popularity is good, and almost all the ministers who know each other in the DPRK and China come to celebrate the settlement of his new house.

A few days later, Chen Fei also officially moved into the new house with his family, but his father was reluctant to leave his original home and chose to stay in Yongle Village.

It is estimated that let my father live in Chang'an City, and I am not used to it, and Chen Fei is not reluctant, so it is good to let my father live in his hometown, and it is good to be able to chat with the villagers every day. Anyway, Yongle Village is not far away, and it is very convenient to go back to see my father often when I have time.

The days have been pushed forward for a few days, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and summer is really coming, and in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, a dessert called "ice cream" is rapidly becoming popular.

Almost all the shops with Chen Ji sell ice cream, and there are a variety of flavors to choose from, rock sugar, hawthorn, milk, fruit, etc., delicious and inexpensive, a bite of the stomach, cold to the heart, nothing more refreshing than eating a bite of ice cream in summer. Ice cream has become almost the most popular snack in the summer.

On the other hand, Chen Fei's family even enjoyed a delicacy exclusively: crayfish of various flavors!

Since the crayfish has just been put into farming, in order to ensure its growth and reproduction, Chen Fei did not overfish, and even this delicacy did not spread, but was only popular in his own home.

What made Chen Fei happy was that the chili pepper also quickly became popular in Chang'an City. In fact, before red pepper officially took root in China, the only pepper varieties in China were pepper from the Western Regions. It is also often used as a seasoning such as salt.

But after the chili pepper appeared, everyone's taste buds were opened overnight. Although he exhaled and shouted that he couldn't stand it, he couldn't stop eating these dishes made of chili peppers, sweating profusely, fanning his fans, and eating happily.

With Chen Fei's step-by-step promotion, the summer of the Tang Dynasty finally became colorful, and after two years of precipitation, many of the things he had done before finally gradually reaped the results.

Many children who don't have the money to read are hopeful, and they learn how to read in the free classes in the library, and they start to learn to write according to the dictionary compiled by Chen Fei.

According to traditional education, it is difficult for you to learn a word without the teacher's teaching, but under Chen Fei's teaching system, it only takes seven days for a person who is illiterate to learn to read and write. After seven days, you can learn the rest of the words on your own.

Of course, it is only so that they can recognize this word, how to use it flexibly, how to write an article, this... Teachers are still needed to teach.

Even so, the learning atmosphere in Chang'an City is unprecedentedly good, and many people in their twenties, thirties, and even forties and fifties have signed up for the library to learn to read and write. Some small villages and towns around Chang'an City are even more exaggerated, and after hearing that Chang'an City has a place to teach literacy for free, and it really has an effect, everyone flocked to the library door like a wasp to sign up.

Almost every morning, there is a long queue at the entrance to the library.

And the sales of the library's ancillary products, such as weekly magazines and weekly newspapers, are also increasing exponentially - everyone has learned to read, so we have to find something to understand and experience, right? The Four Books and Five Classics are too difficult to understand, and the rental requires a deposit, which is a bit not cost-effective, it is better to sell a cheap weekly, relatively speaking, the things recorded on it are much more interesting, and close to life, which has become the main entertainment for these people.

You can even see many people of different races in the library, who are also actively learning the culture of the Tang Dynasty, and sincerely sigh at the development of the Tang Dynasty.

Even Li Shimin was full of praise for the library founded by Chen Fei, and talked to Chen Fei about opening libraries in other cities.

With the help of the imperial court, major cities across the country have set off a "library" movement, almost all major cities are building libraries, and after the completion of the library, the schools for continuing further study have also sprung up under the support of the imperial court.

Li Shimin's practice has been unanimously recognized and applauded by the people, and a strong mark has been made in the history books.

China's culture, from this period began to develop exponentially, far beyond any previous dynasty, more than ten years later even beyond the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period of the hundred schools of thought, the birth of a large number of thinkers, culturers, politicians, poets, etc., the culture of the Tang Dynasty is admired by the whole world. Historians call it the "rise of culture" as a sign that the Tang Empire officially led other empires in the world.

Of course, these are all later words, and Chen Fei's impact is far more than that. The accumulation of two years of time, during this period of time began to really ferment.

The application of movable type printing and new papermaking technology has provided the basic conditions for the vigorous development of libraries, and the spread of culture is faster than in any previous era.

Books are no longer a luxury, they have slowly become popular, and it is under this condition that many excellent works have the conditions to be popular in the market, and widely disseminated among the people, and passed on from generation to generation.

In particular, some solitary books benefited from the application of printing, which avoided the tragic fate of dissipating in history.

Chen Kee's printing and papermaking workshops continued to expand in size, and in the end, the two workshops were comparable in size to a small town, but they were still unable to meet the needs of all parts of the country, so Chen Fei had to open new workshops in the uninhabited suburbs of other cities to fill the gap.

And as a modern person, he also has a sense of environmental protection, in the large-scale logging, cutting bamboo to make paper at the same time, he made a rule: for every tree cut down, a tree seedling must be planted.

Thousands of years later, Chen Fei's decision is still being praised as one of the earliest environmentalists.

On the other hand, the excavation and application of coal has brought earth-shaking changes to the iron smelting technology of Datang.

In the beginning, not much attention was paid to the excavation and application of coal, but good things always stand the test of time.

When everyone found that the iron tools made by Chen Ji were not only five or six times faster in speed, but also far superior in quality, they finally realized the benefits of coal. And then go crazy for it!

Coal, a profiteering industry, was born in Chen Fei's hands. Fortunately, everyone doesn't know how to detect coal mines, and Chen Fei has a [World Coal Distribution Map] in his hand, although it only records the distribution of coal mines in the central and northwest directions of Datang, but... That's enough for him!

The above is not the most happy for Chen Fei, what excites him the most is that with the continuous expansion of various workshops, Datang actually has a little sign of slowly transforming from an agricultural society to an industrial society!
