Chapter 282 Small tasks
On the way back to Jiyang City, Ye Ning finally understood why Tian Ming called him an idol as he listened to Tian Ming constantly chattering in his ears.
The main reason is related to origin.
Since becoming the top scorer in the national college entrance examination, the name Ye Ning has been known to everyone in the world in the shortest time.
At the same time, the interview about Ye Ning was also reported in Canglan City and was immediately spread across the country.
In any era and field, the number one is always the most popular.
As for the second place, it may be almost the same as the first place, but the attention it gets often falls below several levels.
Naturally, the interviews about Ye Ning and the introduction to related life were well read by most of the people in the entire empire.
Ye Ning was born in a slum and had no background in a noble or wealthy family, and was amazed by most people.
Many civilian families, even slums with ideals and ambitions, began to regard Ye Ning as their idol and their goal to inspire themselves.
This Tian Ming is one of them.
Listening to Tian Ming's chattering stories along the way, Ye Ning asked from time to time, which quickly gave the four of them a more detailed understanding of Jiyang City.
Before today, although the four of them knew that there was a city like Jiyang City in the empire, their entire understanding of Jiyang was limited to the name.
In the vast empire, there are more than 1,500 cities of all sizes.
Such a large number of cities naturally made the imperial people unknown most of the cities within the empire.
In addition to knowing the city you live in best, those who can generally know the situation are probably limited to the four first-level cities.
Even with the capitals of forty-two provinces and the only forty-two second-level cities in the entire empire, there are definitely not many imperial people who can understand it.
Not to mention the next level three-level cities.
Even if Jiyang City is a top-ranked city among the third-level cities.
Regardless of the size of the city and the living standards of the people in the city, they are far beyond the average level of the empire. However, the only people who really understand Jiyang City are basically the only people in Jiyang City themselves.
This is the first city that a group of four people went to in half a month since leaving Canglan City.
Half a month ago, Lin Yuanshan died in front of the four people.
Even if this kind of death is a kind of liberation, there is no pain for Lin Yuanshan.
But it still caused a significant blow to Lin Chuxia and the other two.
Understanding is one thing, accepting it...is another.
Since the Lin family branch in Canglan City has already suffered a devastating blow, Lin Yuanshan’s funeral is very simple.
After Ye Ning and the other two buried Lin Yuanshan and buried it in peace, they went to Canglan City Government again.
Xichen High School no longer recruits students in the new year. Now the principal suddenly dies again. Xichen High School is destined to exist for at most two more years. According to the imperial regulations, the remaining two classes of students must be properly placed.
Either received by other schools in your city, or hosted and operated by local official institutions.
There are only eight high schools in Canglan City. The first and second high schools affiliated to Canglan Sword Sect encountered such a thing again. In fact, the situation was not much better than Xichen High School.
This means that if the first method is chosen, the remaining five high schools will accept the two grades of Xichen High School.
Almost every school has to accept about 200 people in the second and third grades of high school.
This number is too large, at least completely beyond the affordability of five high schools.
So when there is no way, Xichen High School can only be managed by Canglan Municipal Government, and the Education Institute is specifically responsible for the operation. The required expenses are jointly borne by Canglan Municipal Education Institute and Canglan Municipal Government.
At least for Canglan City Government, this is definitely a small burden. But a series of things happened, which made Wang Xuanwen feel very guilty when facing Ye Ning. For this request, even though he knew it would cause a burden to the city government, he had to bite the bullet and agree.
Anyway, he will retire by the end of the year. No matter how many messes he leaves, it will be something that the next Mayor Canglan needs to consider, and it has nothing to do with him.
After dealing with all the matters in Canglan City, Ye Ning and his four men set out on the way to the imperial capital.
"Although our Jiyang City is only a third-level city, its living standards are absolutely not bad even if they are compared with second-level provincial capitals. The city's material circulation is very complicated. Except for a very few particularly rare things, anything that exists in the empire can basically be found in consignment stores or shops in our Jiyang City."
After entering the city of Jiyang City, Tian Ming still talked endlessly.
I don’t know if he was just chatting like this, but because he was too excited after seeing Ye Ning.
“There is anything?”
Ye Ning asked casually while strolling on the streets of Jiyang City and looking at the scenery on both sides.
"Uh... I can't say anything, at least most of it..."
Tian Ming, who was full of confidence, was boasting about Jiyang City. After listening to Ye Ning's sudden question, his confidence was a little lacking.
"Are there any intern-level spiritual guide drawings? Are there many types?"
Ye Ning continued to ask.
Tian Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Ye Ning just asked about the intern level spiritual guide drawings, not other things he cherished.
He said with a smile: "Idol, there must be some, but I don't know how many types there are. After all, spiritual guides are too so sophisticated that I have never paid attention to them."
"How about this... I'll give you a temporary task? I'll give you two days. For two days, you have to stay in the consignment store and other places where you may buy intern level spiritual guide drawings. No matter what type of intern level spiritual guide drawings, as long as they are of different styles, they will have to be, without limiting the quantity, but there cannot be the same drawings."
Ye Ning continued with a smile: "As long as the price meets the market price, I will give you a reward of 1,000 yuan in two days, and at the same time, I will advance you to a hundred thousand yuan in advance to the money for purchasing the drawings of the spiritual guide. If you spend it in advance, come to me in time and we will stay in Jiyang City for a few days."
"Ah? Intern level spiritual guide drawings?"
Tian Ming was stunned.
"What? Is there any difficulty?"
"That's not. Intern-level spiritual guides are not high-end things. They don't involve customization. They are just mass-produced standard spiritual guides. The drawings are still easy to buy. I just don't know, do you require the latest ones or the old spiritual guide drawings? "
Tian Ming asked.
"There is no limit on new and old styles, as long as they are not the same drawing."
"That's fine! Don't worry, idol! Ensure the task is completed!"
