"Don't!!" In the Li clan study, Cai Yan's screams were heard one day, and the heart-rending degree was terrifying.

"What happened?" Li Ming was still practicing marksmanship, but when he heard this, he hurriedly rushed over. No matter what, the relationship between Cai Yan and Zhang Mo has been confirmed, and they are about to enter the engagement stage, so they can't let anything happen to her.

"Father...... A book was sent...... Let me study hard......" Cai Yan trembled and pointed to the scroll on the table.

Li Ming felt strange at first, then leaned over to take a look, and suddenly understood, just because it was the "Women's Training" written by Cai Yong. A book with few words, but it focuses on the concept of self-cultivation, explaining that women should not only look good, but also have good habits and a sound mentality...... Li Ming looked at Cai Yan directly, with a sound state of mind......

"Your father is also for your good!" Li Ming smiled bitterly, then stood up and walked outside.

"Going to die, definitely going to die!" Cai Yan directly grabbed the corner of Li Ming's clothes, "Let me be like those dignified young ladies, chat with others with a hypocritical mask, and then be a sound woman, I think I will go crazy!" ”

"Have you lived twelve years without considering whether you are doing the right thing?" For Cai Yan, a bear child, Li Ming felt that it was necessary to make her physically and mentally sounder.

"Number one, I'm thirteen years old! Second, if everyone is the same, then what fun is there, it is precisely because people have various ways to form a splendid world! Cai Yan preached directly.

"So, what are you going to do with the book that your father sent me? I said it in advance, you don't expect to be lazy about ethnology! The opening of Huiji Academy is imminent, and I hope that at least 30% of the students will be able to get in! Li Ming said solemnly.

"Sancheng, do you know how many people are about to take the exam?" Cai Yan immediately retorted, "That's more than 3,000, and many of them are poor scholars from the Central Plains who came to study abroad. Students of clan studies, how long have you been studying, Sancheng, you are too reluctant to me, besides, as a mountain chief, don't you have a few concession places? Why not?! ”

"Those slots are only valuable if they are used in the right places! How, what are my conditions? Actually, I don't mind writing a letter to Cai Yong about your current attitude, and asking him to come over to supervise your reading in person! Li Ming smiled evilly.

"You're a demon!" Cai Yan definitely didn't want her father to come over and supervise her to read this kind of book.

"Come on, you still have half a month to do anyway!" After Li Ming finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Although people are leaving, their hearts are still on the book "Women's Training", Li Ming can't help but wonder, why did Cai Yong write this book? Could it be that Cai Ying, the second daughter, has also begun to develop in the direction of bear children? !

This is not surprising, there are two daughters in the family, Cai Yan can correspond with Cai Ying a lot, and Cai Ying is very likely to be influenced by her sister. I'm afraid that even Cai Yong began to have a sense of crisis, and he actually forced him to write a book like "Women's Training......

Of course, this is the Cai family's business, at most it has something to do with Zhang Mo, but it has nothing to do with him.

What really needs to be concerned is the enrollment quota of Huiji Academy. Considering the teaching ability of Cai Yong and others, after negotiation by all parties, the number of students in the first batch was only 300.

One hundred of them must be left to the children of the family, one hundred people are selected from the foreign scholars who came to the examination, and the last hundred talents are selected from among the scholars from various poor families, and what Li Ming wants is thirty percent of these hundred people, that is, thirty places.

As for fair exams, that's certainly not possible! Some people have just been born and have already been decided in this life!

"Zhang An? So what's going on in remote places? "Whether Li Ming is too shou or not, the affairs in the county still have to be paid attention to at all times, and the report in front of him now comes from Zhang'an County.

Zhang'an County is more than 200 miles away from Yin County, the most remote county in the north of Huiji, and it is almost a wild land 30 miles away from Yin County to the south. It is also the recent establishment of Xianju County and Tiantai County, and Zhang'an County has begun to emerge in this context.

Before that, whether it was Zhang'an, Yongning County, which was more than 200 miles to the south, or even Dongzhi County, which was nearly 700 miles south of Zhang'an, were just places where prisoners and criminals were exiled. The Han Chinese are very scarce, most of them are naturalized Yue people, and they are almost in a semi-autonomous state.

"Ninety miles southwest of Zhang'an County, eighty miles southeast of Xianju, there is a pond, and the Yue people over there call it the Dragon Pond. It is named after the large number of dragons living in it. The size of these dragons is not large, so the mountain people in the two places will occasionally hunt some dragons for sale, and their leather is made into leather armor and even shoes and packages. Xun Biao briefly introduced.

"Dragon? What does it look like? "The first time Li Ming heard of such a thing as a dragon, could it be that dragons really exist in this world?

Xun Biao briefly described it, and even felt that the comparison was not very specific, so he drew it directly.

"Crocodile!" Li Ming looked at the graphics, and suddenly realized, and according to the regional distribution, it should belong to the Yangtze alligator, or a subspecies of the Yangtze crocodile.

"I don't know if it's a crocodile or not...... However, in recent years, the size of the dragon in the dragon pond has gradually improved! According to the news reported by the Zhang'an County Order, the size of the dragon has increased by at least five times compared to the recorded size, and according to experienced Yue Min, there have been many spirit beasts among these dragons, and it is conservatively estimated that there are more than 300. Xun Biao said slowly.

"Why are you reporting now?" Li Ming felt a little headache, there were more than three hundred spirit beasts, and they were still crocodile types.

"Recently, there are no living creatures around the Dragon's Pond, and these huge dragons have begun to spread around, and they may not only go to Xianju County, but also to Zhang'an County.

In the final analysis, it is the county order of Zhang'an County, knowing that the matter cannot be hidden, so he can only ask for help, otherwise a large number of dragons will walk out of the dragon pool, and no one knows what will happen! For this kind of normalcy in officialdom, Xun Biao also expressed helplessness.

"You know, this is a large number of mutated dragons, not the kind of little reptiles that can be caught with bare hands!" Li Ming said solemnly. He knows that the size of the Chinese crocodile is one to two meters long, which is considered a small crocodile. And it's a slow-moving, docile crocodile.

According to the information reported by Zhang'an County, these crocodiles have been raised to five to ten meters long, which is already the level of giant crocodiles. In such a situation, it is difficult to say whether they can still maintain a certain 'docileness'. Especially those spirit beast-level existences, which are definitely existences that can devour living people.

"The question now is, should we let these dragons roam around, so that the people of Zhang'an and Xianju County dare not go out, and even the two counties are directly destroyed by these dragons, and everyone is killed! Of course, this itself is a matter of the Zhang'an County Order, and we can choose to report it to the imperial court first and let the imperial court make a decision. Xun Biao suggested.

"How long has it been back and forth? I'm afraid that when the imperial court sends a large army here, there will be no one in Zhang'an County and Xianju County. Forget it, will it be a dragon soon? I'll just be a dragon slayer! Li Ming was helpless, so he got up and went out directly, and asked Dian Jie to gather people. Fortunately, all kinds of seafood have been caught recently, and the food problem has finally been solved.

Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if there was not even enough military rations for the troops.
