Originally, according to the rules, Lingzhou was no different from other places. They were all square Wubao walls. However, after Li Sheng arrived, the entire Lingzhou city was directly built to look like a modern small county.
The most important thing is that a large amount of cement was used during the construction process.
There are a large number of cement buildings, which are themselves city walls. There is no need to worry about insurgents attacking during wars.
Therefore, the area with the most densely built buildings in Lingzhou City is not small, and the entire administrative scope is determined based on the future long-term development plan, so the scope is even larger.
in other words……
"Go from outside Lingzhou City to the front gate of the college." This seemingly simple requirement actually takes more than twenty miles.
Of course, a ten-kilometer hike is not an exaggerated distance, but if you add the snow and the special requirements of Lingzhou College, you must wear straw sandals to participate, it will be quite a torture.
Generally speaking, in foreign countries...even small countries, even the princes and nobles do not have any luxurious life, but at least the warm clothes are far more abundant than the common people.
Walking such a long snowy road is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime torture - but for the common people in the northwest, Central Asia and even West Asia, it is not that difficult. After all, these places have never been rich because of the cold. "
The word "wearing shoes" is often an unimaginable thing. It is not too cold to make a pair of leather boots and I would not even want to leave the boat.
The purpose of enrolling students in this way is to avoid that all the students admitted to the college are descendants of foreign nobles. In this case...how will China benefit the foreign people? Recruiting international students in this way means, to put it bluntly, they are giving favors to the common people.
Chance.
Of course, except that the shoes must be straw sandals that are basically equivalent to sandals, there are no requirements for clothing.
Therefore, starting from these few days in the third year of Zhenguan last year, the sight of foreigners in Lingzhou wearing fancy clothes passing by on the streets of Lingzhou City became much denser than usual. After all, everyone knows...
If you go to the academy, you will be the elite of the Tang Dynasty.
According to the standards of the Tang Dynasty, they were all elites. In their own country, wouldn't they be the same as the princes and nobles?
Such an opportunity naturally won the Tang Dynasty an excellent image in the eyes of foreign people. At the same time, it also made the scenery of Lingzhou City more colorful, and more and more strange people and goods appeared from all over the world.
many.
And this year was the same. Lingzhou City in the fourth year of Zhenguan was more lively than the city in the third year of Zhenguan.
Not to mention the academy, the number of businessmen from all walks of life who came here because of its reputation increased by several percent.
Naturally, there are more young people who want to enter the academy to study arts...
On this day, Lingzhou City was just like yesterday, and like every year for many long years, heavy snow fell like goose feathers.
Although the weather was clear and the visibility was very high, the snowfall was really exaggerated.
In such weather, others are required to wear straw sandals to participate in the hike, and it is a race. Not all young people who walk to the door of Yeongju University can enroll, and there are not that many places. So the speed cannot be slow.
Walking in the snow with straw sandals and racing, one can imagine that the foreign young people in strange clothes walking bustling in the snow along the streets of Lingzhou City were naturally tortured.
Rao is from the desert northwest and even Central and West Asia, and has long been used to seeing heavy snow, but these young people are still severely frozen.
After all, no matter how adaptable and experienced, low temperature is low temperature, it will still damage the human body. Of course, damage of ten kilometers is reversible. It mainly depends on willpower.
But it was said that Li Sheng was engaged in design on this day... No, it should be said that the day before, Li Sheng had a headache until midnight because of the problem of the internal combustion engine. According to his recent daily life, it was rare to stay up late.
Li Sheng naturally wanted to take a rest on the second day. After all, no one here would bother him with KPI...
So, I chose to take my maid Danqing out for a walk to enjoy the snow, and take a look at the grand enrollment of Lingzhou College.
Li Sheng had naturally known about this scene for a long time, and Wei Ziyu had of course told Li Sheng the screening method for admissions.
But seeing it with his own eyes, Li Sheng couldn't help but feel a little funny. This girl is so...
Seeing these young guys and girls wearing straw sandals, grinning from the cold but still trying to surpass each other, Li Sheng couldn't help but think of the novels about cultivating immortals that he read in his previous life...
I remember that the sects in the novels about cultivating immortals would conduct various trials when recruiting disciples. They must successfully pass the level or reach a certain number of terms before they can enter the sect of cultivating immortals.
Each of these trials was so weird that Li Sheng could only say that the Immortal Cultivation Sect was indeed an old tormentor.
The scene is similar now, but after walking around for a while, Li Sheng found that the "small county town" of Lingzhou was still different from the "small county town" in his memory. The small county town in his memory would have all kinds of things.
You can visit places like mobile phone stores, motorcycle shops, and hot pot restaurants, but here...
There are various shops, but those selling food only sell various kinds of meat, and you have to cook them yourself. The silk shops all sell real cloth, ranging from one foot or two feet to hundreds of pieces, as is the case in Lingzhou.
In Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, a big commercial port, you can do all kinds of business, but you still can only buy fabrics and go back to sew clothes yourself...
In other words, there’s still really nothing to see!
It is still interesting for Danqing. After all, Danqing is Li Sheng's maid who takes care of Li Sheng's daily life. She still has research on various ingredients. As for fabrics, there is no woman who is not proficient in fabrics... Or simply put, because women are born with a good mentality.
, as long as there is shopping, you can go shopping anywhere...
But Li Sheng felt bored. He felt that visiting these shops was not as interesting as watching these foreigners in fancy clothes racing through the snow.
After all, for men, no matter what, as long as it has a competitive nature and a ranking mechanism, it is interesting...
While watching this, Li Sheng also had a sudden idea and bought a pair of straw sandals directly from the vendors selling goods on the roadside - this is one of the reasons why Li Sheng thinks that Lingzhou City has the flavor of a small county town, because
This place is different from Chang'an, which has strict rules. There are many vendors setting up stalls everywhere.
Although Dan Qing disagreed with Li Sheng's wearing straw sandals in the snow with a displeased look on his face, Li Sheng wanted to give it a try, but Dan Qing could not stop him.
But just as Li Sheng finished changing his straw sandals, he heard a voice coming from behind him. The Chinese version was not very clear, but for a woman's voice, it was a bit deep and very magnetic...
"Why did you just change your shoes here? Once the fraud academy is discovered, it will be banned from Lingzhou City forever. Did you know?"
"...It's really shameful for a grown man to cheat..."
