There are crowds of people in the treasure appraisal hall in Xixian County.

Hundreds of monks from all over the world sit here together.

Although the hall is still the same, the host and the attendees have changed.

It turned out to be Zhao Feiyang, but now it has become Liu Mingquan and Zhao Feiyang.

Zhao Feiyang did not leave either. This was the last time he appeared at the Xixian appraisal conference.

Zhao Feiyang made a decision and was about to take office in Tubo. Liu Mingquan returned to Xixian from the capital, which was considered a success.

The two were both ninth rank officials of the imperial court, especially Zhao Feiyang, who had been promoted to a member of the Tubo Commercial Ministry of Commerce, and had already been a sixth rank official and had a certain psychological advantage.

It turned out that the last appraisal conference was a group of businessmen, and the identities of people were different this time.

Not only were monks, some of them also had official identities, especially those in the Song Dynasty temples and courts appointed them.

There is also Tubo Gala not only the Dharma King, but also the right prime minister of the monk Bochanbu.

Although it is reasonable for ordinary monks, it is still not enough to think about Gala.

Zhaojiazhuang naturally had arrangements, and two officials were arranged to attend.

One is Wang Wenxiu and the other is Mei Shou.

Two are former magistrates, and one is the current magistrate.

Wang Wenxiu was about to leave Xixian County, and he was the special envoy of the Tubo State Administration.

It was also his last time to attend the appraisal conference, and attending with Mei Shou gave these monks face.

As for Mei Shou, the current magistrate of Xi County, he turned out to be the promoter of Lin'an Prefecture, the capital.

When he heard that he volunteered to come to Xi County, the court was overjoyed and was worried that there were no nails in Xi County.

The Prime Minister immediately took action and asked the officials to approve the appointment of the magistrate of Meishouxi County as quickly as possible.

Mei Shou and his staff rode their horses all the way westward, leaving the capital more and more disappointed.

The capital is the capital, obviously it is not comparable to other places.

Not only is it rich in culture and business, but it is also comparable to food, clothing and use.

These places are not only backward in business, but even deserted.

Especially in some rural areas, there are people in a scattered dress, with a look of dishiness and a dull look.

Seeing this, Mei Shou shook his head and sighed mournfully, but he didn't expect that some parts of the Song Dynasty would be so poor.

Mei Shou even regrets applying for a transfer order. Isn’t this an initiative to demand an exile?

Ten days later, he came to Chongqing and he came to Changzhou.

His purpose in coming to Changzhou was nothing else, and to see the legendary Zhaojiazhuang.

When I came here, I realized that it was indeed different.

The street is clean and there are green bamboos on both sides.

What's even more strange is that the street here is actually divided into two sides.

When Mei Shou saw this, he didn't understand why Zhaojiazhuang was just a farm, so why did he do this?

Later, he looked carefully and finally realized that the light was coming out.

It is still very lively, with many people coming and going, and there are hurried pedestrians.

If the streets are not separated, a car crash is very likely.

There are many horse, donkey, ox carts, and ox carts. They pull trucks of raw materials from outside, and then pull trucks of finished products out.

It is precisely because of the implementation of two-sided diversion that this will not affect each other. Although it is fast, it is still in order.

Mei Zhuo, an aide, is about fifty years old. He is very thin, but his expression is a bit old-fashioned.

He looked at it and shook his head: "It's good, but it's a pity that the smell of copper smell is too strong."

"At the beginning of man, one is good..." Mei Shouzheng was about to speak, when suddenly a loud reading sound came from the front.

This is not the sound of studying alone in Beijing, but the sound of neatly and neatly, and it is also a childish and crisp childish voice, obviously there are quite a few people.

There are also sounds of reading on the roadside of the capital, but not only are adults, but also only a few occasionally, and they are not uniform.

Mei Zhuo looked at it and asked strangely: "There is no school here, why does it have the sound of reading and channel? Zhaojiazhuang actually lost the school to the store, which is really a disgrace to his ethics."

Speaking of it, Mei Zhuo unknowingly showed a look of disappointment.

"Uncle, they are not in the school, they are next to the street." Mei Shou looked at the place where he made a sound and smiled slightly.

Mei Zhuo's eyes were a little myopic and he didn't see it too clearly.

Hearing this, he became even more angry: "It's outrageous. Zhaojiazhuang is so rich that it doesn't open a school. Can't it be said that the students are in the open dam to receive sun and rain? Zhaojiazhuang is unkind because they are rich and unkind, so I will not go. I will return to the capital to teach."

Mei Zhuo became more and more angry as he spoke, and he immediately turned around and left here.

"Uncle, they didn't take classes on the street, and they didn't seem to see the teacher." Mei Shou looked at it, thought for a while, and expressed his opinion.

When Mei Zhuo heard this, he felt something was blocking: "These teachers are too irresponsible. They not only attend classes in the open air, but also care about the safety of students. You must know that there are so many cars coming and going here, what should I do if I get hit?"

"Uncle, they will not be hit. It seems that when they cross the road, the cars actually stopped letting them cross the road." Mei Shou felt more and more strange when he saw this.

Mei Zhuo looked carefully and finally showed a smile.

His smile immediately froze again, and then he asked angrily: "This is like Zhaojiazhuang, but why did he let the school study in the open air?"

Mei Zhuo looked carefully again: "It seems wrong. They are carrying bags. What's the matter?"

"Puchi", someone suddenly laughed in their ears.

Mei Shou felt uneasy when he heard this voice.

"You Zhaojiazhuang is wrong, can't others say it?" Mei Zhuo heard the ridiculous voice and looked at the ridiculous person coldly.

This is a young man about twenty years old. Seeing the unhappy expressions of the two, I don’t know the reason.

He bowed to Mei Shou and said, "I have met my father-in-law and an official."

After seeing this man bow, the two of them dared not neglect and hurriedly returned the bow.

Seeing this young man quite polite, Mei Zhuo felt a little relieved.

He asked with displeasure, "Young student, why does Zhaojiazhuang have no school and actually let students study in the open air?"

"Of course there is a school in Zhaojiazhuang, and of course the students are studying in the school." The young student said while bowing.

Mei Shou couldn't help but be stunned, looked around for a few times, and finally shook his head: "Where is the school, why didn't I see it?"

"Officials, the tallest building is." The young man pointed to a five-story building in the distance and said.

Mei Shou couldn't help but blush, and looked at the building in surprise and said, "I thought it was a restaurant, but I didn't expect it to be a school."

When Mei Zhuo heard this, he wanted to have a gap on the ground to let him get in.

He originally thought that Zhaojiazhuang was teaching students in an open-air dam, but he did not expect that the school would be the best building.

"So that's the case. Why are these students studying on the roadside?" Mei Shou asked in confusion.

"They are studying on the roadside?" The young man was puzzled for a moment, and then suddenly realized and pointed at the boys carrying bags. "They are memorizing the book. Now it's time to finish school, and I memorize the book while going home."

"So the Zhaojiazhuang style is so strong. What kind of things are they carrying on their backs?" Mei Shou felt a little strange, "Is it a matter of eating?"

"What's going on with food?" The young man couldn't help laughing, but both of them were their elders, so he had to force himself to hold it in and said patiently, "There are no book boxes for school here, they use schoolbags."

"It's true that it's different from the capital." Mei Shou felt that he was hit hard, and he didn't expect that this little Zhaojiazhuang would be different from the capital.

At this time, Mei Zhuo was also hit hard by the momentum.

But he quickly came out, a little dissatisfied, bowed to the young master and asked, "Young master, is Zhaojiazhuang School closed the practice?"

In his opinion, Zhaojiazhuang is not an official school, and he still needs to be trained in some way.

"Shu Xiu? Zhaojiazhuang did not collect a single article Shu Xiu, and lunch was provided for free at noon." The young man shook his head, not expecting that these two people with accents in the capital had such thoughts. "Zhaojiazhuang also has a rule that anyone who is six to fourteen who does not recognize men and women must go to school by force."

"I was a little ill-eyed person. I didn't expect that Zhaojiazhuang would be so educated, which was even better than the capital." Mei Shou's face turned red, he lowered his airs and bowed respectfully to the younger generation.

Mei kept a favor, and Mei Zhuo was naturally a favor. The two felt so ashamed of the thought just now.

How dare I accept the gifts from the two elders in my later generations? I hurriedly dodged.

He was just an ordinary member of Zhaojiazhuang. He just couldn't stand the two trampling on Zhaojiazhuang and came out to tell the truth.

After saying that, he bowed to the two elders, claimed the crime, and left.

Looking at the young man's back, Mei Shou asked Mei Zhuo: "Uncle, what do you think of Zhaojiazhuang?"

"Sir, Zhaojiazhuang has changed from an ordinary village to a big town in just one year, even bigger than the county town on the way. It seems that Zhaojiazhuang is really powerful. I don't know what Xixian looks like, after all, it's just under the eyes of Hu people." Mei Zhuo bowed and showed a satisfied expression to Mei Shou, but the next sentence was another question.

Mei Shou nodded: "There is no harm without comparison. Since Zhaojiazhuang is like this, my nephew wishes to arrive in Xi County as soon as possible."

Because of the urgency, the two arrived in Xi County in less than ten days.

After arriving in Xi County, Mei Zhuo was shocked: "I have already thought of Xi County well enough. Not only is the population larger than that of an ordinary state in the Song Dynasty, but I also did not expect that the business here is no less than that of the capital."

"What's more, I heard that there are any kindergartens in these things? What kind of books can children read?" Mei Shou asked while drinking tea.
