The liquor shops in Da Zhou are not modern bars or food stalls, although there are many civilians who come and go, but among the liquor shops, everyone is polite and polite, and there are few loud and noisy people.

Some people often say that Chinese like to eat noisy, in fact, this is a misunderstanding, modern Chinese aside, ancient Chinese, table manners, this piece of exquisite, but very much.

For example, in ancient times, before the Song Dynasty, there has always been a separate meal system, from the sitting posture, the sound of talking and chewing when eating, to the type of food, distribution, and the order of meals, which are all exquisite.

Even the name, that's very particular, Songju Juju.

If it weren't for the fact that many of them were ordinary people at the door, Wu Qiong would have thought it was a high-end place.

It was seeing this name that made Wu Qiong hesitate for a moment, think about it, let it loose.

Now there are not many people inside, Wu Qiong took the people around him to directly find a few tables, then took off his shoes, cross-legged to find a place to sit down, and a maid came up and knelt down to greet him.

Wu Qiong asked the female official Shangguan to look at the big guy and order something to eat, and then looked at the little girl in front of her and asked:

"What's your name?"

"Mom and Dad call me Niu'er." The little girl whispered timidly, then patted the hair of the boy next to her with her hand, and said:

"My brother's name is Er, he is very well-behaved and obedient, and he doesn't eat much."

It seemed that she was afraid that Wu Qiong would lose her brother, and the little girl named Niu'er hurriedly said a few advantages of her younger brother that she could think of.

A three-year-old boy named Er, who heard his sister talking about him, looked a little overwhelmed.

Wu Qiong nodded and asked:

"Your father, have you buried it?"

Niu'er shook her head and said:

"Burned, with the house."

"Remember your father's last name?"

"Daddy's surname is He, and my mother doesn't seem to have a name, so others call me my mother, and I call him the lady of the He family."

"Then you are He Niu'er, he is He Er, your father and mother call you that, you have to remember your name."

Wu Qiong said, He Niu'er nodded vigorously.

Wu Qiong asked some more, what they ate on weekdays, what taxes they paid when they paid taxes in the past, whether anyone came to collect protection money, the village squire was in charge, or the government sent someone to take care of it.

Although he had read the classics and understood the political ecology of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the framework structure of the imperial court was a typical Han Dynasty model in which the feudal system and the county system coexisted.

However, it is not known how the people at the bottom live and whether there is widespread bureaucratic oppression.

Although He Niu'er is young, at her age, in this era, she will probably get married in about four years, and she will help the family early, and she also knows some about the situation at home.

At this time, they all said one after another, on the whole, the bureaucratic oppression is not serious, and the officials who come to collect taxes will take some benefits, but it is not too much, and they do not kick the tax grain, and how much of the kick is kept for their own vices.

Of course, this is also one side of the people, and it is difficult to say whether the rest of the places can do the same.

Although Yang Shuo, the king of Xiliang, committed a heinous crime, he was only orderly in governing the fiefdom, controlling the bureaucracy, and clarifying the rule of officials.

However, he governed the fief well, not because he loved the people, he only did it when it was beneficial to him, and even Hu Lu could be introduced, how much love for the people could he have?

Wu Qiong nodded, these oppressions cannot be avoided in a society governed by man, and if you want the society to get better and better, it is not enough to rely on Confucianism to shout a few slogans and make people study.

The implementation of the legal system, the establishment of a practical regulatory system, and the smooth channels through which the voices of the people can be heard, and the need for a dare to act in the media, are the solutions.

Just like what modern society is trying to do.

But this involves a series of social reforms, you can't eat fat people in one bite, and you want to fast forward to the modern system within two or three years, then the result is that Wu Zhi's life is gone, and the throne is lost.

But all reforms, you can't be impatient, you have to plan well, one generation does one generation of things, Wu Qiong is still very conscious.

After Wu Qiong finished asking, He Niu'er asked in a panic:

"Well, I can ask the master more, what will my brother and I do then? Don't misunderstand the main family, it's not that I'm afraid of being tired and dirty, as long as the main family gives me and my brother a mouthful of food, I'm willing to do anything, I just want to know in advance, and I'm a little prepared. ”

"Heh, you're so small, what kind of heavy work can you do."

Wu Qiong smiled casually, but He Niu'er was in a hurry, and hurriedly said loudly:

"I can do it, I can do it!"

Wu Qiong saw that the child was in a hurry, so she said:

"Don't worry, I don't think you're incompetent, my family is quite big, very big, and there are a lot of servants, you are so young, it is estimated that you have to train first, maybe it is very hard, your brother can also live with you, but my family is a bit special, it doesn't matter if your brother is young, if he is old, I am afraid he will not be able to live with you, and then you may have to separate, of course, if you are not happy, you are older, and your brother is older, you can also go out of my house, find a good family to marry, and plant a few acres of land is not bad."

"The main family is a good person, Niu'er has no idea of leaving the main family when she grows up, Niu'er will definitely serve the main family with all her heart."

He Niu'er hurriedly made a fuss a little, and then kowtowed to Wu Qiong again, her face full of panic.

Wu Qiong raised her hand to get her up, and then the shopkeeper brought food, some naan cakes, and cooked things.

Wu Qiong was not hungry, but she also took the naan and ate some, it was okay, it didn't taste good, it was a little dry, not difficult to swallow.

He Niuer and He Lao Er in front of them also shared the naan cakes, not to mention gobbling them up, but eating carefully, but whenever they dropped a crumb, they hurriedly picked it up and ate it, and He Lao Er even lay on the table and licked the crumbs that couldn't be picked up.

Wu Qiong saw this situation, only felt sad in her heart, the people were living in such hardship, she hated to bring three bags of corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes directly from the modern civilization, and then a whole set of factory machinery, with a lot of raw materials, industrial finished tools, and strides with Dazhou to carry out the industrial revolution.

But this is unrealistic, climbing technology, or have to be gradual.

[But you have to start exploring the Americas quickly, go to the Americas a day earlier to find the Three Treasures of Civilization, and the people will be able to fill their stomachs sooner.] 】

Wu Qiong held the naan in her hand, thinking about how to get to the Americas by land, the Bering Strait seems to freeze in winter, and it is quite thick, if you are well prepared, there is no problem for people to walk over.

The sea route is not to be considered, from China to the Americas, the monsoon can blow you dizzy, the Pacific Ocean is not at all flat, the current navigation technology, against the monsoon to the Americas, no ship can hold on, unless the ironclad ship, steam engine technology, otherwise the sea route is really not to think about.

Wu Qiong was thinking about it, when he saw the guards around him stand up all of a sudden, press their hands on the scabbard, and scolded loudly:

"Stop! Dare to get half a step closer and kill! ”

Wu Qiong raised her head, and there was a woman standing in front of her, and she arched her hand expressionlessly:

"Under Fu Hongyan, I want to say something to your lord."
