To say that this Xu Shiji is a person who has left a prominent reputation in the official history after all, he has his own unique views on both military and political aspects at the age of seventeen, and his fiancée, Shen Luoyan, who is more than a year younger than him, also lives up to the reputation of the original Qiao military teacher.

After the two made the decision to come to Donglai in person, they did not directly inform Cheng Yanjin, but entered Donglai under a pseudonym, and spent more than ten days to take the entire Donglai aside.

At this time, Donglai was in a period of more than two months after the war, and the whole Donglai could be said to be a large construction site. Under the organization of the Donglai Household Information Division, hundreds of thousands of people are busy in the land of Donglai in the form of work-for-relief. Not only did they build their own shelters, but they also built roads and water facilities on a large scale under the organization of the Department of Household Affairs after completing the emergency replanting of the second crop.

In the eyes of Xu Shiji and Shen Luoyan, there are almost no idlers in the land of Donglai, and everyone spends more than three hours a day busy with various work.

At first, the two thought that Chen Quan was another Yang Guang-style guy who spared no effort from the people. But after a thorough understanding, I learned that every job done by the people was paid. The daily remuneration of 200 wen is enough for ordinary people to buy nearly 60 catties of fine rice and noodles in the shops all over Donglai.

Sixty catties of rice noodles are nothing to put on wealthy families, but in the current year, in other places in Dasui, sixty catties of rice noodles have always been impossible to buy.

What's more, in addition to rice and noodles, you can also buy a lot of cheap things in the government-run stores in Donglai, such as the expensive refined salt and durable cloth and other necessities of life in other places, and the cheap ones sold here are outrageous.

Looking at the cheap and unspoken substances in the various shops in Changyi, Shen Luoyan jokingly said to Xu Shiji:

"Brother Shiji, even if you don't invest in that Chen Gong's account, you can make a fortune just by secretly selling this Donglai's property to other places."

Hearing this, Xu Shiji put down the glass mirror that he had been looking at for a long time and looked at Shen Luoyan with a smile.

"It's useless! Now these things have appeared in the surrounding states and counties, but there are not so many varieties. If I'm not mistaken, this is a deliberate act by Na Chen Gong, which can not only bring a lot of wealth to Donglai, but also a means to strike at the surrounding hostile forces. ”

"Is it a means? Perhaps! But at this stage, the common people of the Great Sui are short of food and salt but cloth, even if it is a means, it will not make the people at the bottom starve to death. ”

Shen Luoyan thought about it. Even if it is a means, Chen Quan should only scavenge the wealth of the upper class family through luxury goods and dig up their foundation, as long as food and other materials are abundant, it will be a good thing for the people.

"Perhaps! Hey! Is that a bookstore? There are even books sold here? ”

Inadvertently, Xu Shiji caught a glimpse of a shop that seemed to have a bookstore sign in the distance, and suddenly became interested, put down the goods in his hand, and ran towards the bookstore with Shen Luoyan in tow.

"It's really a bookstore!"

Since the boss did not refuse to look through it, Xu Shiji found that the books here were extremely complete.

There are four books and five classics, and the subsets of scriptures and histories are complete, even Sun Tzu's Art of War, Wu Zi, Sima Fa, Wei Xuanzi, Liutao and Three Strategies These art of war are available, Qi Min has to art, Neijing, Difficult Scripture, typhoid fever and miscellaneous diseases, and Jin Kui is essential. There are also so-called miscellaneous books such as the Book of Mountains and Seas, the Sutra of Zhou Ji, the Nine Chapters of Arithmetic, and even various Taoist classics.

There are also some books that Xu Shiji has never heard of, such as Cihai, Shuowen Jiezi, Tiangong Kaiwu, Compendium of Materia Medica, Barefoot Doctor's Manual, Agricultural Administration, Crop Illustrations, Breeding Manual, including Geography, and various operas.

I even saw a comic book called the Romance of the Gods, etc., and several thirteen or fourteen-year-old young people were holding it in the bookstore, reading it with relish. It's just that Xu Shiji guessed that they couldn't recognize the text content of the album at all, and just looked at the pictures on it with guesswork.

Not only is there a huge variety of books here, but there are more than a dozen of them of each. Xu Shiji was dazzled when he saw it, and at the same time, his heart was even more shocked.

"Excuse me, are you the boss here? Can I ask you some questions? ”

Holding a young man in a gray uniform passing by him, Xu Shiji couldn't help but want to let the other party solve his doubts.

"Hehe, guest officer, the little one is just the shopping guide of this bookstore, not the owner here, and loud noises are not allowed here.

As for your question, in fact, you don't ask, I know what it is. All I can tell you is that you don't need to ask much about everything here, and you can take it for granted if you see more. If you're looking for answers, check out the books in this bookstore and you'll find the answers you're looking for. For example, this Tiangong Kaiwu and this brief history of Chinese Gewu! ”

The shopping guide did not directly answer Xu Shiji's question, but introduced Tiangong Kaiwu and a brief history of Huaxia Gewu to Xu Shiji and left.

After taking two books and looking around at the bookstore, I saw signs that were not loud and loud, and most of the people in the bookstore were quietly buying books or reading books, even if it was necessary to speak, they were very quiet, and the conversation time was generally very short.

This made Xu Shiji very embarrassed, blushing and smiling apologetically at a beautiful woman who was looking at him with a smile on her face, and then pulled Shen Luoyan to continue to walk around the bookstore.

Bai Qing'er looked at the thin-skinned little couple with a smile, and easily saw that they had a different temperament from the others in this store, the kind of temperament that belonged to the readers. At the same time, he began to sigh in his heart that Chen Quan's forces began to attract some real talents.

After more than half a month of exploration, Bai Qing'er was sure that as long as Chen Quan was given a few years, he would become the most promising force in the world to win the Central Plains. Bai Qing'er believes that not only she can see this, but other forces can also see it.

It stands to reason that such strength will inevitably be the object of wooing by all parties. But Bai Qing'er glanced at the security officers patrolling the street outside, and then looked at the various types of books in this bookstore and the comic book of the Romance of the Gods in his hand, Bai Qing'er really didn't know what Chen Quan thought.

The strict law enforcement of those security officers made it impossible for the disciples of the two sects and six realms of the Holy Gate to go with Chen Quan at all. And the various books in the bookstore are open to everyone's knowledge dissemination, and the family gate valve can't tolerate him. Looking at this comic book of the Romance of the Gods and the behavior of suppressing the Donglai Temple, Bai Qing'er can see that Chen Quan is very disgusted with Buddhism.

At odds with the above three forces, Mr. Chen should get close to the Daomen! But he also did not allow the Taoist temple to occupy the fertile land, but he did not spread information that was unfavorable to the Taoist sect, and even took the initiative to print and sell Taoist classics.

It can be said that in less than half a year, the forces of the whole world will completely understand that Chen Quan will not be an ally of any party.

The problem is that, judging from the news coming out of Shi Zhixuan, that Dongfang Undefeated is a great grandmaster who can easily defeat him, even Chen Quan himself, and he is also a top grandmaster who can draw with him.

Fu Cailin alone could make the million-strong army of the Great Sui without a great grandmaster to fight against Goguryeo. What's more, there is a great grandmaster here and a top-level grandmaster who may become a great grandmaster at any time.
