Chapter 593 Finding a painter
Zhao Yun and the other two continued to move forward, and Zhao Yun told Dongfang Hong that they should not be terrified along the way.
Dongfang Hong blushed and agreed.
A few days later, they finally arrived in Sijiu City. The place where the prodigy was called Tianyi Village.
They soon came to the village and they immediately asked about the prodigy.
Someone told them that the prodigy was called Xu Dong and often recited poetry to everyone outside the village.
But the villagers were illiterate and did not know the content of the child's poems, but they all knew that it would be good.
Zhao Yun suspected in his heart that perhaps it was just a casual worship by the people.
They finally found Xu Dong.
He recited his own poems to others under a willow tree.
Many people gather around a little kid and listen.
Wenxuan is actually willing to come here because he is curious, and the other is also wondering if this child has traveled through time.
She also understood that it was impossible for so many people to travel here. But she was still a little curious.
Zhao Yun and the other three were dismounted. Zhao Yun didn't understand the words, nor did he know the good or bad. He just accompanied him.
When a villager saw Zhao Yun and the other two, he felt moved. It turned out that outsiders also came here to see him.
Wenxuan and Dongfang Hong listened carefully and found that Xu Dong was indeed very talented.
Wenxuan felt that he should not have come from time to time. Perhaps he was a genius.
At this moment, the last time the official came again.
"Children, did you tell your grandpa?"
Xu Dong nodded.
"I said that if I can make money, it would be great to subsidize my family income."
The official was very happy.
"Since that's the case, then follow me."
Everyone thought that if the child followed the clerk, it would be impossible for them to continue listening to the child's poems in the future.
But it is also a good thing for children to have a good home.
Xu Dong said: "My grandpa will come soon, I want him to watch me go."
"This is what it should be." The official smiled and thought that the child was doing things well.
Xu Dong told everyone, since that's the case, let's go here first. I'm a little tired today.
Someone left.
Zhao Yun asked Wenxuan in a low voice.
"Next, are we leaving?"
He doesn't understand what Wenxuan means now, is he to take this child back?
Or is it that simple to just take a look?
Wenxuan said: "I want to contact the outsider."
Afterwards, Wenxuan came to the outside of the official and bowed.
The official also saluted immediately.
"Hello, the three of us are from Youzhou and come to see the little prodigy."
"I see."
"So, we want to get to know more about the prodigy."
The official immediately understood her meaning.
"Since that's the case, the girl and others can visit our mansion."
Wenxuan immediately greeted Xu Dong.
Wenxuan said that he heard his name in Youzhou, and it was a great honor to see him this time.
Xu Dong also gave a very polite answer and was humble, saying that they did not need to go so far, and they were just flirting with fame.
Wenxuan saw that his answer was so polite and really didn't want to believe it. This was said from a child.
After a while, an old man arrived, Xu Dong's grandfather.
"Grandpa, the official is here again. Didn't you agree to me? So should I go with him?"
The old man then greeted the official.
The official saluted him respectfully.
After all, I looked up at other people's grandson, so it is also appropriate to salute him.
"Uncle Master, since I look down on my grandson, I will hand it over to you from now on."
"Don't worry, I treat him, so I think my own son is so good."
The old man said that he would say a few words to his grandson alone, and after he finished speaking, he would follow the official's office.
The official smiled and said, "This is what it should be."
So the old man pulled Xu Dong to a corner.
"Suncle, let's take a long line to catch big fish, and finally you can successfully get into the home of the official."
It turned out that the old man and Xudong had a conspiracy.
The old man had heard that the official wanted to find someone to hand over his child to study, and the child was quite naughty. He hired many teachers, but they left with just a swagger of their sleeves.
And his grandson is indeed talented, so his purpose here is to attract the official position.
And the facts are as the old man thought.
I didn't expect everything to go so smoothly.
Xu Dong said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will try my best to complete the matter you explain to me."
"Yes, you must find it."
"Since that's the case, you must proceed with it with caution. Never be discovered by the other party."
Xu Dong said he knew it.
Moreover, when you arrive at the official's house, you will definitely be regarded as a guest of honor, so there is no need to worry that the official's house will treat you badly.
"Okay, grandson, no matter what, just be careful about everything."
After a few words of explanation, the old man led Xu Dong to the outsider.
"Okay, everyone, I won't say much about the rest, let my grandson follow you."
Some people were considering that it would be better to have Taihua, and they could make money at a young age.
Afterwards, the official side looked at Wenxuan and the other two.
"Since that's the case, then you guys go home with me."
Wenxuan nodded, and the three of them followed behind him with their horses.
Zhao Yun asked Wenxuan in a low voice: "How many days do we have to stay?"
"It depends on the situation then."
Zhao Yun didn't say anything.
Of course he knew that Wenxuan was Xi Yu's good friend. Since the Prime Minister asked him to come, he had to obey.
Although Xi Yu did not say it clearly, he knew that he had to listen to Wenxuan's trip.
However, along the way, he had heard Wenxuan and Dongfang Hong say some very strange things.
There are some vocabulary and words that he has never heard of before.
He didn't know where the two of them got so many languages.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at the manor where the official was living.
The manor is particularly grand and large.
There are two stone lions at the door.
When I first entered the door, I saw a bamboo forest, which looked particularly quiet.
After the three men brought the horse in, the official said, "You can put the horse east, there will be someone who will feed you specifically."
After that, he said hello and asked the guy to come and feed the horses.
Afterwards, the official guided them into the hall and finally asked Wenxuan and the other two to sit down first.
He wanted Xu Dong to see his son and come out to see them later.
Wenxuan said: "Please ask for advice."
In a blink of an eye, only Wenxuan was left in the hall.
Dongfang Hong said to Wenxuan: "We have seen each other now, and we should also confirm that he is not from our era. Should we leave?"
Although Wenxuan did not communicate with him, he could know what Wenxuan's purpose was.
Wenxuan gave him a blank look, as if he was saying whether you want to be not so smart?
"Everything is in my opinion. If you are not happy, then just leave." Wen Xuan gave Dongfang Hong a blank look.
Dongfang Hong felt wronged, but sighed and said nothing.
Zhao Yun thought to himself, Dongfang Hong must not use his temperament again.
As a general, I have to listen to Wenxuan now.
If Dongfang Hong had used his temperament, he would persuade him, and he felt that he was so wronged.
On the other hand, Xi Yu heard Su Yu’s report, saying that they are now quite proficient in printing books.
If there is no special accident, the newspaper will be released in a few days.
But Xi Yu told him that the newspapers include news, that is, news, and some other articles.
"In addition, you need to rely on Sun Zhaomeng in terms of technology, but you are the editor-in-chief of the entire newspaper, so you must hear yours."
Xi Yu suddenly remembered that he had not given a name to the newspaper.
But it is definitely not appropriate to run a daily newspaper in this era.
That will make people exhausted.
Moreover, the newspaper will be delivered to other places. If it is a daily newspaper, it will obviously not meet the requirements.
After all, transportation in ancient times was slow. If you run a daily newspaper, it may have been several months since it was passed on to others.
So Xi Yu planned to be once a week.
"Let me give the newspaper a name, and it's Youzhou Weekly. It's tentatively set to be the first time in the week. What do you think?"
"Prime Minister, you made a very appropriate arrangement. But I have another suggestion, I don't know whether to speak or not."
"Of course, there is something to say, but it's okay to say it, it's just good for the newspaper."
"I think our newspapers should pay attention to a picture and text. If only the text is dry, it may not be attractive."
Xi Yu's eyes lit up. Being able to think of this problem shows that Su Yu is really a sensible person.
This is also a very simple question, but I didn't expect it.
Xi Yu just laughed.
"It seems that my vision is pretty good. I didn't choose the wrong person. You're really thoughtful."
After being praised by Xi Yu, Su Yu felt very happy.
"In this way, should we go to the painter?"
Xi Yu nodded and told Su Yu about this matter, just letting him go and doing it.
Su Yu said that once the painter is found, he will draw some scenery and people.
According to Xi Yu's instructions, he now understood.
There must be several pages of newspapers, the first page is called the front page.
The front page headlines should generally tell the news about Xi Yu.
In addition, for example, if there is news about fields, there must be pictures like fields.
At this moment, Xi Yu was in full swing. He was imagining the scene that would occur once the newspaper was published.
Then he suddenly reflected on what was his original intention of running a newspaper?
Is he trying to promote himself? Maybe that's what he means.
No matter what, he did make a contribution to the belief that culture should be made.
Xi Yu suddenly realized that he had not paid attention to road construction for a long time.
He decided to inspect it, and now he found that as long as he no longer cared about Jia Xu's affairs, he could let go of his hands and feet and do other things.
As for Jia Xu's incident, there are fewer people talking about it now.
Many times things are like this.
Often there is a gust of wind, and once this gust of wind dissipates, there will be nothing left.
Xi Yu specially set up a place for Su Yu for publishing newspapers.
This is a very clean courtyard, and it is usually very quiet.
At this moment, Sun Zhaomeng was still concentrating on rubbing work.
Su Yu did not disturb him either.
It was not until after a while that Sun Zhaomeng stopped and realized that Su Yu was back.
Su Yu said to Sun Zhaomeng with a serious look on his face: "The Prime Minister said that in the future, you are authoritative in terms of technology, and I have to listen to you. But in terms of running newspapers, you have to listen to me."
Sun Zhaomeng nodded with a smile and replied: "Haha, no problem, just do it!"
Then, Su Yu said excitedly: "Now I'm going to hire a painter, because they will need to be used in the next newspaper."
On the other side, Fang was paced back and forth anxiously at the door, looking into the distance from time to time, muttering to himself.
"Wenliang isn't here yet?" Her face was full of worries and uneasiness.
The sister-in-law next door sat aside and gently comforted Fang.
"Girl, don't worry, Wen Liang may have been delayed by something."
However, Fang's tears flowed down like a flood that broke through the dam.
"I'm so worried about that fool. If I hit him, will he not be able to wake up..."
Her body was trembling slightly, too.
At this moment, a faint sound came from the room. Fang and his sister-in-law looked at each other and rushed into the room. Jia Xu slowly opened his eyes, his eyes still a little confused.
Fang looked at Jia Xu who was still stupid, and the nervous expression on his face relaxed a little. He patted his chest lightly and murmured to himself: "It's okay, it's okay..."
The sister-in-law next door watched from the side and comforted softly: "Girl, you can rest assured now, at least Jia Xu is still alive." Fang nodded, and a look of relief flashed in his eyes.
Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the door. Fang and his sister-in-law looked at each other, and both showed a puzzled expression.
The door was pushed open, and Wenliang walked in with Song Shuwen.
Wen Liang had a hint of anxiety on his face, and he asked as soon as he entered the door: "How is the person?"
Fang quickly replied: "Husband, you are finally back. He is still stupid, but he finally woke up."
Wen Liang frowned, looked at Jia Xu, then looked at Fang Shi, and said in a reproachful tone: "How did it turn out like this?"
Fang's eyes flashed with a hint of guilt, and he lowered his head and did not dare to look at Wen Liang's eyes.
Wen Liang pointed at Song Shuwen, with a little respect and expectation in his tone, and said, "This is the miracle doctor. Please ask the miracle doctor to see what Jia Xu is doing."
Song Shuwen looked at Jia Xu in front of him, frowned slightly, and observed carefully.
After a while, he shook his head and said with a serious expression: "The situation is very complicated."
Fang and his sister-in-law were immediately raised and they looked at Song Shuwen nervously.
Then, Song Shuwen turned around and said, "I need to collect herbs before I can carry out the next step of treatment."
Wen Liang quickly asked, "Can such a situation be cured?" His eyes were full of concern and expectation.
Song Shuwen pondered for a moment and said slowly: "It's almost the same."
Wen Liang immediately smiled happily after hearing this.
Wen Liang smiled and said, "I'll go and collect herbs with you, and I can protect you at the same time."
Song Shuwen nodded with a smile and replied, "Then I'll trouble you."
Then, Wenliang turned to his sister-in-law next door and said, "You are waiting at home, we will be back soon."
Then, Wenliang and Song Shuwen walked out of the village together.
When they walked to the entrance of the village, Wenliang suddenly heard a group of people talking about something not far away.
He looked curiously and found that there were several old ladies sitting under a tree.
I heard one of the old ladies say, "Wenliang, although he likes to drink, he is very kind-hearted."
The other old ladies nodded in agreement.
When Wenliang heard this, a bright smile appeared on his face, and his heart was filled with joy and satisfaction.
On this day, Su Yu excitedly found a young painter named Man Dalong.
He took Dalong to meet Xi Yu.
After seeing Xi Yu, he excitedly introduced to Xi Yu: "Prime Minister, this is Man Dalong, and his painting skills are very outstanding!"
Xi Yu looked up and down at Man Dalong, nodded slightly, and then said calmly: "Then let's experiment and draw a picture for me."
Man Dalong smiled and agreed, "Okay, please wait for a while."
He began to paint seriously.
After a while, Man Dalong handed the finished portrait to Xi Yu.
Xi Yu took the portrait and looked at it carefully, and a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face.
He couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow, this is too realistic!" Xi Yu's eyes flashed with admiration.
Xi Yu looked at the portrait with satisfaction and praised Man Dalong: "Man Dalong, your painting skills are really amazing!"
Then, Xi Yu turned to look at Su Yu again, and said with a smile: "Su Yu, the person you have found is indeed good."
When Su Yu heard this, he showed a proud smile on his face.
Xi Yu said to Man Dalong and Su Yu: "You can go and run newspapers together in the future, and I will feel more at ease."
Man Dalong and Su Yu looked at each other and answered confidently.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, we will definitely get the newspaper done!"
Xi Yu said calmly, "You guys go back first."
The two looked at each other, saluted respectfully, and then slowly retreated.
County Magistrate Wang Liang frowned, and his eyes never left Jia Xu.
It seems like I want to find some clues from it.
Seeing this, several yamen runners on the side advised: "Sir, the Prime Minister doesn't care. Why do you have to pay attention to this matter?"
Wang Liang turned his head suddenly, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, and said, "This matter is of great importance, how can we give up easily!" His voice was a little majestic, which made the yamen runners speech for a moment.
After a while, several yamen runners sorted out their equipment and prepared to go out for business.
A yamen runner couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
"The county magistrate is really too real." A helpless look appeared on his face, as if he was helpless about Wang Liang's persistence.
Another yamen runner quickly pulled his sleeve, looked around nervously, and said in a low voice: "Shh, don't talk casually. It would be bad if the county magistrate heard it."
Wang Liang sat quietly in the room, his brows frowned slightly, and fell into deep thought. He repeatedly pondered what the yamen runners said.
"Are you really too real?" he asked himself secretly.
