"My good brother's intention...is to make money from the master of the Juren family?"
Tian Hong thought about it for a moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up. The more he thought about it, the more reliable it became, and he slapped himself hard on the leg.
"What a great idea! What a great idea!"
It makes perfect sense to think about it this way. Those civil servants who come to Beijing to take the exams are naturally much richer than the hard-working yamen coolies.
The key is that the candidates are not short of money. If they can get some money from their pockets, it will naturally be a hugely profitable business.
Shen Lie laughed heartily: "Yes... make money from the master!"
Look at the surprised looks on everyone's faces.
Shen Lie, who got inspiration from Gongsheng of the Imperial College, waved his hands excitedly and started giving orders like a general.
"Tomorrow, we have to go to the bookstore to print some small advertisements first. The quantity needs to be large, so that everyone who holds the title of civil servant can have a copy!"
It's time to launch an advertising campaign.
At this time, Shen Lie seemed to have gone back to the days when he was drifting to Beijing, when he and his fellow extras stopped working and worked part-time on the streets to distribute small advertisements.
Think about it.
Shen Lie couldn't help but narrow his eyes, he really missed those days.
People in this era still don’t understand the power of small advertisements, so the publicity effect is naturally excellent.
There was silence in the private room again.
Tian Hongqi asked: "What is...an advertisement? Why do you need to add a small word?"
Shen Lie was at a loss for words for a moment, then he quickly said with a smile: "Advertising, of course, it should be widely advertised. If it's small... then it's naturally not big."
Tian Hong looked astonished and said thoughtfully: "So that's it."
I don’t know if he really understands or pretends to understand, I think he probably doesn’t understand.
At this time, Yun'er shouted coquettishly from the side: "Nu Nu is going!"
Shen Lie looked at her excited expression and laughed dotingly: "Okay, I'll count you in."
Zhang Jingxiu and Yue Xuan'er, two more reserved and knowledgeable women, also unanimously praised: "This method is good."
It was unanimously approved by all relatives and friends.
Shen Lie pretended to be honest and laughed: "Hehehe."
As if they suddenly found a way out, everyone looked at each other a few times, each thinking about the infinitely beautiful money scene, and then they looked at each other and laughed.
Bursts of laughter rang out from the backyard of Shen's mansion.
Chatted for a while more.
Tian Hong stood up, patted the dust on his body, and said with a smile: "In that case, we will say goodbye. The printing of the small advertisement will be taken care of by our old Tian!"
Shen Lie smiled and said: "Print more."
As Tian Hong left, Yue Xuan'er also stood up and looked at Shen Lie and Zhang Jingxiu with her bright eyes.
She didn't know what shameful thing she had thought of, so her pretty face turned slightly red, then she lowered her head, bowed her hands, and said softly.
"Nunu also resigned."
As the stepsister Lian walked back to her boudoir, closed the door from the inside and bolted it, the atmosphere in the backyard became ambiguous.
As Shen Lie revealed a free and easy smile, Miss Zhang lowered her head in confusion under his burning gaze, while Yun'er's bright eyes widened in a charming manner.
Before the flowers and under the moon.
The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful.
In the blink of an eye, it was three days later.
Very early in the morning.
Ciyun Temple in the eastern suburbs.
Before the city gate was opened, the crowds leaving the city blocked the city gate and made it airtight.
The soldiers guarding the city gate were also very serious, and there were several generals who kept walking up and down the city gate tower.
The red mandarin duck war coats worn by officers and soldiers, the swords around their waists, and the black cannons on the city walls represent the majesty of the Ming Dynasty in its flourishing era.
However, the weapons are a bit lacking. There are only crossbows and no muskets. It must be because weapons like muskets are too dangerous, so only Shenji Camp has them.
Shen Lie, Zhang Jingxiu, Yun'er, and Zhang Kui led the horses and lined up at the end of the queue neatly, lowering their heads and talking and laughing from time to time.
Both women put on men's clothing. Shen Lie had long been accustomed to Zhang Jingxiu's appearance in men's clothing, but Yun'er was wearing men's clothing for the first time.
At this time, she was wearing a green shirt, her cloud-like hair was wrapped in a small green cap, and she looked extremely charming with red lips and white teeth.
Looking at their intimacy, they look like a pair of sisters.
When Shen Lie's heart was really pounding.
The time came to open the city gate. With the sound of a gong, the guards began to push the winch and slowly opened the heavy iron-clad city gate.
The crowd became commotion and walked out along the spacious city gate, starting a busy day in the prosperous and prosperous Ming Dynasty capital.
Shen Lie and others led the horses to the outside of the city, got on their horses, and walked leisurely outside the picturesque East City.
The scenery here is different from that in the eastern suburbs. There are not many farmlands in the eastern suburbs of Beijing, but fruit orchards can be seen everywhere along the way.
This is the time when fruit trees are blooming. Pears, plums, and apples are blooming everywhere, and the air is filled with fresh fragrance.
The aroma is intoxicating and intoxicating.
In addition to acres of fruit trees, there are various large and small temples that can be seen everywhere outside Dongcheng City, and the incense is very strong.
Everywhere you can see pilgrims bringing their families to make wishes.
It won't take long.
Shen Lie and the others reined in their horses, sat on them and looked up. At this time, a large-scale Taoist temple came into view in front of them on the left.
At first glance.
This Taoist temple occupies a very large area. Under the cover of green bricks and tiles, there are houses and the main hall is vaguely visible, and it is surrounded by peach trees.
This is the season when peach blossoms are in full bloom, the flowers are fragrant, butterflies are flying, and the air is mixed with the strong smell of incense candles.
A good group of people sing and dance to bring peace.
At this time, the guard leader Zhang Kui said with a smile: "Dongyue Temple has arrived."
Shen Lie nodded, quickly got off his horse, picked up Zhang Jingxiu and Yun'er, and they walked towards the magnificent Taoist temple.
After walking for a while, a large hall came into view.
Yun'er was surprised and said: "This Taoist temple... is so big!"
Zhang Jingxiu pursed his lips and smiled, walking slowly with a folding fan in his hand, while explaining to her: "This is natural, this is the largest Taoist temple of the Zhengyi sect in the whole north."
Dongyue Temple.
As the name suggests.
Naturally, it got its name because it worships Emperor Dongyue, the god of Mount Tai.
This temple looks ancient and popular, but in fact it has a short history. It was built in May of the twelfth year of Zhengtong by Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty.
The renovation was completed in August of the same year.
After the completion, Zhu Qizhen, Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, personally wrote the "Imperial Dongyue Temple Stele".
Emperor Yingzong renamed the front hall Daiyue Hall to worship the God of Dongyue Mountain, and the back hall was renamed Yude Hall to serve as the divine resting place for Emperor Dongyue and Empress Dongyue Shuming.
By this time in the early Wanli year, it had become the number one attraction for outsiders visiting Beijing, especially scholars.
The prices of nearby residential houses, inns, and shops have also increased as a result.
Why do scholars like to gather here?
Firstly, this is a Taoist holy land. I hide here and study for peace. Secondly, this place is not ordinary. It is a temple that enjoys royal worship.
This temple really became famous and became more popular in the 39th year of Jiajing reign.
