Chapter 275: My Mother Is a Reasonable General's Wife (23)
The merchants didn't know what Ma Wei was in the afterglow, and in their eyes, they only saw the rules of the Luocheng people.
In the past, this kind of order could only be seen in the capital, or in the places where literati and artists gathered.
But now that it happened in the desolate Luo City, it really felt weird no matter how you looked at it.
As the guards read out the work one by one, the steward's eyes were full of surprise: Luo Cheng actually had so much work.
Seeing that even the children were given the job of pushing snow, the steward finally understood why the streets of Luocheng were so clean.
However, the snowplowing tools in Luocheng are very interesting, just a piece of wood and a stick, and when it is pushed out flatly, a large piece of ground will be cleared.
It's more like play than work.
There were also a few children pushing snow and saying something in a word.
The steward walked over curiously and listened, but found that what they were reciting was actually the three-character scripture.
That's a bit of a surprise!
The steward used a few candied fruits to inquire from the mouth of one of the little babies, and it turned out that these three-character scriptures were written by Uncle Changbei every day at the door of the uncle's mansion.
Moreover, Chang Beibo promised that as long as one of them could recite these together in the spring of the next year, Chang Beibo would pay for them to study.
But the premise is that they must be from Luocheng, Saicheng or Zecheng.
And if you want to join these three cities, you must meet the standards required by the Northland.
In order to seize this opportunity to change the court, those who want to turn over are red-eyed, not only working frantically, but also urging their children to improve.
Only what you have worked so hard to get will you cherish it.
Children are also beginning to take pride in their studies.
As for the children of those who are outcast, although they cannot take the meritorious examination, this does not delay them from studying.
Most of the people who can be exiled to the Northland have some skills, at least in terms of literacy.
Therefore, I also understand Yu Guang's mind better, and Yu Guang's big move will inevitably turn the north upside down.
Although they were punished for not being able to return to Beijing for three generations, they could learn more, and a good errand in the north was better than hard labor every day.
As a result, the sound of children reading can be heard everywhere in the Northland.
After listening to the child's explanation, the steward couldn't help but gasp: This Changbei Hou really has some means!
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Yu Guang was powerful, and the steward was full of awe for Yu Guang.
Before they met, most of the people were instigated first.
At this moment, the guards of the Bofu already saw the steward: "Where did you come from, and why are you lingering at the gate of the Bofu in Changbei?"
Feeling that if he doesn't speak again, the other party is likely to stab himself, and the steward hurriedly identifies himself.
Hearing that the other party was here to buy goods, the guard's expression relaxed: "Since you are here to buy, let's go to the shop street in the west of the city, Aunt Yu Xin happened to be there today."
Seeing the other party's cold weapon, the steward hurriedly nodded: "Let's go over here."
The guards were talking to Yu Guang on this side, and on the other side, the child who was already excited had already run to find Yu Xin first: "Auntie, auntie, there is a caravan coming to talk to you about business."
Yu Xin responded with a smile, and grabbed a handful of fried soybeans and stuffed them into the child's pocket: "Very good."
The boy clutched his pockets in surprise, it was a good thing, and he was going to take it back for his father and grandfather to enjoy.
Yu Xin instructed his subordinates to burn the earth dragon hotter, and the uncle said that they wanted to sell not only the goods, but also the shops in the city...
The remnant sun fell, and Yu Xin returned to Bofu with a disappointed face.
At this time, Yu Guang was leaning on the kang to read a book, and Yu Jing gently beat her legs.
Seeing Yu Xin enter the house with a lonely expression, Yu Jing asked softly, "Didn't the business work out?"
Yu Xin was a little unrefreshed: "The business is done, 1500 catties of wool 15,000 taels, with 100 sets of bamboo needles and an embroidery girl."
They don't have much wool stock this year, so they still have to put a few more
It's good to go out at home.
Yu Jing's expression was a little puzzled: "Isn't this a matter of talking, why is it still sullen, could it be that someone has the intention of taking it by force."
Yu Xin found a comfortable position to nest in the soft mountain: "Luo Cheng belongs to the uncle, not to mention that the uncle is from a general, just looking at His Majesty standing behind, no one dares to come to trouble."
This time, without waiting for Yu Jing to ask, Yu Guang gave a direct answer: "The shop is not smooth."
Yu Xin snorted sullenly: she didn't want to ask her uncle how she knew, anyway, it was true that it didn't go well.
Looking at the smile between Yu Guang's eyebrows, Yu Xin's voice was a little anxious: "How can you still laugh."
Yu Qing glanced at her with a smile: "I only said that I would put the shops out, but I didn't say when I would put the shops out, now is not a good time, even if I exempt them from taxes and silver, it will not attract big merchants, but will fall into my own name."
Hearing this, Yu Xin finally had some spirits: "Then what are your plans?"
Yu Guangmian gently turned the page of the book again: "Wait..."
There's no problem that can't be solved in time.
Then Yu Guang's smile faded, well, this sentence is not absolute...
From this day on, merchants came to the Northland one after another.
During the Chinese New Year, Yu Guang asked craftsmen to make a lot of fireworks, which feasted the eyes of the people of the three cities.
Now they have cotton clothes on their bodies, brass plates in their pockets, and grain in their bowls, and they live with hope.
I only hope that Changbei Bo can stay in the north for a long time and never leave.
And those who have daughters are more and more fond of their daughters: Changbei Hou, Yu Jing, and Aunt Yu Xin are all women, and everyone can be as independent as men.
The most important thing is that most of the people in Changbei Bofu are women, can they look forward to it.
When the fireworks were lit, Yu Guang carried a jar of wine directly to the roof and drank to himself.
Her blood is cold, I don't know if the wine is useful.
Yu Jing stared at Yu Guang nervously, afraid that Yu Guang would drink too much and roll down from above, and afraid that Yu Guang would have typhoid fever.
You must know that now her honor and disgrace, and even her net worth, are tied to Yu Guang.
Uncle must not have an accident.
Yu Xin stared at the sky and smiled like a fool.
Although fireworks are set off in the Imperial City every year, she has never been so close as she is now.
It's so beautiful!
Seeing Yu Xin's heartless appearance, Yu Jing pushed her a little speechlessly: "Don't you care about your uncle?"
I really don't know what the uncle likes about Yu Xin, just the daily contact can be seen: the uncle is closer to Yu Xin than to himself.
It's just that I don't know where Yu Xin got into the eyes of the uncle.
Yu Xin looked up at Yu Guang again, and then shook her head at Yu Jing: "Don't worry about Uncle, she doesn't have the two of us in her heart now, it's a pity not to see such beautiful fireworks, don't live up to Uncle's wishes."
Uncle climbed so high, he must be missing some important person, because if she is thinking about someone, she must think quietly and do not want to be disturbed.
Yu Jing: "..."You really don't have a long heart!
