In fact, the operation is not difficult in the first place. The little emperor is smart and has already learned it after a few times.
So after Qin Hong took him to play for a while, Emperor Wu Xuan called Shen Zhoujin up again... and played for a while himself.
They usually played three groups in the morning and two groups in the afternoon. Emperor Wu Xuan had lunch with them and played twice in person in the afternoon before leaving. His back was still impressive and he did not look like an unreliable emperor at all. .
Shen Zhoujin was also convinced, complaining to Huo Lingjue all the way: "Feng'er is just a silly fool, and grandpa has this style of painting. I won't be surprised if I see him somewhere next time."
Huo Lingjue said with a smile: "Who told you to brag about Feng'er? You told him it was so safe, how could the emperor live in peace?"
Shen Zhoujin: "..."
He smiled again and said: "Don't worry too much, the emperor knows it well.
Alas, yes! Just get used to it.
Shen Zhoujin remembered and asked, "How many days will it take for me to take a break?"
Huo Lingjue smiled and said, "Ten days."
He told her.
Regarding holidays, the Ming Dynasty had the least and the Song Dynasty had the most.
The Xiumu system of the Dasheng Dynasty was modeled after that of the Tang Dynasty, and was a ten-day system, that is to say, one day off every ten days, and Emperor Wu Xuan also had original incentives for this, that is, if you did not take a day off but still worked during the holidays, you would maintain a month, there will be a separate report at the end of the year, and you will be rewarded with two taels of silver every month. If you don’t take a day off throughout the year, you will be rewarded with fifty taels.
Although the money is not much, the emperor will know it!
This trend is so obvious, this is a sentence, although I gave you a holiday, but if you are loyal to the emperor and patriotic, don't take it!
What can I say, he is very much like Emperor Wu Xuan.
However, most of today's officials live in their own homes. It's not like officials in the Han Dynasty who had food and accommodation in the official office. They can take a shower whenever they want, so there are really many who work all year round, and there are even many who are employed. Since then, I have never taken any other leave except annual leave.
But it was a holiday and he didn't go to court, so the emperor wanted to take some time to go out and play, which was not too convenient.
The two of them talked and entered the door. Guan Jiu came over to salute and said: "Your Majesty, everything has been taken care of. I wonder how long it will take for the mailbox to arrive?"
Shen Zhoujin paused, very surprised.
As expected of a retired shadow guard, his efficiency is amazing. In just a short time, he has completed all the preliminary work.
And he called in to inquire about some minor technical difficulties. For example, Shen Zhoujin wanted the postmark to contain at least two pieces of information, the location and the date. The date these days is not Arabic numerals, so it was quite troublesome, but fortunately there was no problem. The size required, so what they finally came up with was quite exquisite, and it was also based on the year of the zodiac and branches.
For example, the above is: xx county, xx prefecture, xx province, August 16th, the 32nd year of Wuxuan reign.
At the bottom is the zodiac year, which is similar to the year of Renyin, month of Jiyou, and day of Bingyin, but it is written in a border-like manner, which is quite nice.
In fact, the six holes were vacated here in xx year xx month, and the words were made into small rectangular parallelepipeds and inserted. It feels strange to stamp and stamp.
Seeing that everything was ready, Shen Zhoujin was not in a hurry at all, but now he could only speed up.
It took another half a month to carve all the boxes.
Then the film guards rushed to install it everywhere, preparing to open in time for the Emperor's Thousand Autumn Festival.
Although this thing is not mainly about making money, I have done it all. Of course, the sooner I get into the state, the better.
Letters and other things, at present, there must be more exchanges between literati. Writing letters is just like fun. The key is how to get them to participate.
Nowadays, many books have been lost, but many literati have a collecting habit.
So Shen Zhoujin asked someone to hold a lottery.
For example, one person from each state will be selected every day and given one of "Three Graves", "Five Codes", "Eight Suos" and "Nine Hills", randomly every day.
The three tombs are the books written by Fuxi, Shennong and Huangdi; the five canons are written by Shaohao, Zhuanxu, Gaoxin, Yao and Shun; the eight ropes are the study of Bagua; and the nine hills are the aspirations of the nine states.
Nowadays, all of them have been lost, or partially lost.
But she does!!
It is impossible to have the original book of this kind, so we can only send a transcript, but they also want to know the content!
So overnight, literati rushed to tell each other, wishing to write a letter to everyone they knew.
Shen Zhoujin is prepared to conduct a secret operation if necessary. For example, if a talented person with many famous friends wins a prize, or if this person is unknown but has a famous friend... wait until someone wins the prize. It goes without saying that they would write letters desperately just to collect these three tombs, five canons, eight ropes and nine hills.
After the lottery is over, they will remember the terrifying speed and realize how convenient and reliable this method is.
At the same time, the business of making pen pals is open.
For example, if you are very interested in xx place, but don’t know anyone here, you can directly write xx literary friends, and we will hand them over to a certain place. Of course, the county magistrate must set up a local literary friends association in advance. , get together regularly, or have someone responsible for opening and replying to letters every day. In short, all letters must be answered.
Just mention this when issuing an order. The county magistrate dare not deal with matters involving literati, otherwise the reply will be embarrassing. If any literati makes a fuss, your county's reputation may be ruined all over the world.
In addition, for example, if there is a famous person in a certain place and you don’t know the specific address, we also provide a search service. You add two taels of silver and write down a rough address. When we find him, we will send him a letter and we will give him feedback after he agrees. If you give us your specific address, we won’t refund you money if you can’t find it. After all, time is valuable, but we will give you a receipt to tell you where we looked.
Someone said, who knows if you can find it or not? I don’t know if you just write it randomly... So, if you believe it, just come. If you don’t believe it, forget it. This is not our main business in the first place.
The Information Affairs Department over there was building momentum in advance. In early October, Shen Zhoujin's well-drilling team left Beizhili and transferred to Qizhou.
At this time, the late-planted potatoes in Yongzhou had a good harvest. Shen Zhoujin asked the grain merchants to transport cold-resistant winter wheat in advance, so that everyone could plant it quickly, and it should still be possible to harvest.
Although they are not in Yongzhou, the series of work in the coal mine has not stopped, including road construction, and everyone has become accustomed to using briquettes, so business is not bad.
When he got up in the morning, Shen Zhoujin took the little emperor grandson to exercise his muscles as usual.
Starting from the past few days, she stopped taking him to dig wells, because at first she took him to get him used to "going out", but in fact, digging wells is not a hard job. After waiting outside for a long time, it is better to use this Time to read.
So Shen Zhoujin got up in the morning and took him for a few boxing walks. After the activities started, he let him study at home while they went out to work.
She was practicing less intense punches and kicks. While she was practicing, Lu Zhiji said over there, "Hong'er, what are you laughing at?"
Shen Zhoujin didn't pay attention here. When Lu Zhiji said this, she took a look and saw the little kid grinning with his mouth open.
Shen Zhoujin asked: "Why is Hong'er laughing?"
Qin Hong was really embarrassed, his face turned red, and after a long time he said: "Hong'er just feels happy."
Shen Zhoujin corrected his posture and said, "What are you happy about?"
Qin Hong said with embarrassment: "Hong'er got sick at this time last year, and then he stayed sick all winter. He didn't even go out the whole winter, and he was leaning on the bed every day. But this year, Hong'er felt strong. It’s cool, I’m not cold anymore, I feel very happy.”
Shen Zhoujin smiled and patted his head: "What's the point? You will be even better in the future."
