Chapter 496: Bird and Beast Race (1)

With the announcement of Qinyu, the performers who had been arranged for a long time immediately appeared.

Also present in the square this time, a man and a woman, dressed in costumes, each holding a trumpet-like object like a megaphone, placed it under their mouths, and then began to say some opening words in a loud voice.

Ye Zhi's eyes lit up for this situation, the two of them spoke with a trumpet-like thing, and their voices really improved a lot, so many people present could hear it clearly, which made Ye Zhi have the feeling of seeing a modern host hosting the show.

"What is this?" Ye Zhi asked curiously, "Who invented it, it's so interesting!" ”

"I invented it, of course!" Gu Yu answered with a smile, "It's just a gadget, it was originally put in the toilet, and when there was no paper, I shouted so that my senior brother heard it and came to give me paper. ”

Stunned also nodded, "Well, it's really convenient to use this shouting when you don't have paper......"

"......" Ye Zhimo, it was actually this way at the beginning, and she was excited early......

Doerling came to Ye Zhihe's side and began to popularize the customs of Qinsang Kingdom to Ye Zhi:

"The Fifth Prince, Young Master Ye, the Bird and Beast Contest is a long tradition of my Qinsang country, this origin is to talk about the founding emperor of our country, Tai Shi Huang, legend has it that he fell in the mountains and forests during the founding war, surrounded by a group of birds and beasts to guard, and some even brought food to him, which allowed him to live. Later, after the founding of the country, the first emperor of Thailand respected birds and beasts as spirit animals, and advocated the harmonious coexistence of humans and beasts......"

"Later, a bird and beast conference was held, and the three animals with the most beautiful coat color, the most majestic, and the most smart and intelligent were selected as the spirit beasts of the year, and they could get special subsidies from the imperial court, and they would be respected by everyone up and down the Qinsang country, many people may come from afar just to see the spirit beasts, generally on the 15th of each month, the spirit beast owner must show the spirit beasts, of course, he can also charge, one or two silver fees per person, and after paying half of the taxes to the imperial court, the rest is his personal income......"

Ye Zhi nodded, "It turned out to be the ancestral training of the old ancestor, but it is a bit business-minded......"

Doerling continued: "Of course, if the spirit beast is particularly outstanding and is favored by the nobles in the palace, it can be directly summoned into the palace to feed, then his master can also get an official and a half position, and maybe he can be added to the rank of official in the future to do a better official position......

Speaking of this, Doerling lowered his voice, "If you want to say that the high priest only entered the palace because he could raise spirit beasts, the spirit beast he brought in at that time was a parrot that could speak very human words!" ”

"Oh?!" Ye Zhi and Yue Wanqiu glanced at each other, but they didn't know about this situation.

"What about parrots?" Ye Zhi asked, now that the high priest has been removed, it is best to uproot it and leave no trace on him......

"Hey!" Doeryan smiled and continued to whisper, "Once the emperor was angry, saying that the parrot scolded the emperor, and then ...... Ordered the parrot to be disposed of......"

Ye Zhi was stunned, he didn't expect Qin Yu to play such a trick, "Tsk, will this not take care of the high priest's face?" ”

Doll shrugged his fat shoulders, "Hey, it's because of the high priest's face that he only dares to take a parrot to vent his anger......"

"......" Ye Zhimo, it seems that this Duo Erling can achieve the position of the messenger today, also because he can see it thoroughly and dare to tell the truth!
