Chapter 272 Cloud Spring (3)

Her thoughts are always strange, and she wanders around Taixu from time to time. Her thoughts become faster, but eventually they will end up around her dreams.

When they returned to the city, the largest bunch of houses were the temporary residences of these people here. It has been five years since Zhao Wu built Yunzhong City to the present. The people of the Mo family have long taken root here, sold goods, and built some houses early.

Outside the house is a mud-shaped wall. The innermost room is the residence of several girls. It is against the back door, which is the only medical clinic in Yunzhongcheng that can treat some simple diseases.

The Mozhe in the clinic came early and is now married, so he lives here.

There are three women living with the gentleman, who have studied medicine, or are teachers here, and one is responsible for the accounting management.

There are unspoken rules within the Mohist school. One of the few professions without physical strength is generally women at the same level, such as teachers and accountants.

The house they lived in was quite good in Yunzhongcheng, but it was much worse than some brick-structured houses in Sishang City.

The gentleman pushed open the wooden door tied with a layer of hay and entered the house. The dark inside was only a few flames appeared from the wall near the east. It was a simple stove near the wall.

In some brick and stone houses in Gaoliu, the stove flues usually go through the middle wall, so that the whole house will be warm.

However, Yunzhong is still in a small population, underdeveloped industry and commerce, vast land, and not as many industrial and commercial personnel, so it is impossible to build a hollow wall that requires certain technology to carry hot smoke. You can only choose to place the fire flue at the eastmost point. In fact, half of the heat is gone outside, which is really a waste but there is not much solution.

There was a small iron pot on the stove, covered with a lid made of reeds, and hot water was burning inside. Four pottery cups that had been waiting for a long time were placed next to it.

The gentleman walked to his bed, took out a small small box with patent leather from a cloth bag made of hard thread, carefully pinched out a little tea leaf and placed it in his cup, and asked the teacher next to him who was reading a booklet on fire, saying, "What are you looking at?"

The female teacher closed the thin pages of paper, shook them in front of the fire, rubbed his red eyes slightly, and said, "I'm reading "Poetry Novels."

At this time, the name of novels is already called novels, but in fact they are stories.

The so-called "Novelists are mostly caused by officials; street talks and hearsays are created by those who hear about it." In fact, it is somewhat similar to what Qiu Guan Xiao Situ did, which is to collect some stories in the market, but spread them.

This book has been read by gentlemen. In fact, it tells some stories in the Book of Songs, and writes some widely sung "Poems" in the words of the market into some detailed stories that are popular among the people in the city.

The earliest stories in it are suitable for writing, and many of the strange techniques at this time were used, such as "heart-willing", "thinking" and some psychological descriptions. Later, some of the "free" classes in Si learned to try to start writing some stories. They were all very short, but they looked like some urban literature.

The female teacher closed the booklet that had been circulated many times, and suddenly asked: "You said that the gangster was holding cloth and trade silk, and finally became like that, which is really unpredictable. That woman also had a miserable life..."

When the gentleman heard this, he knew that what she was reading was the short story adapted from "Wei Feng, Mang". He couldn't help but think of what he heard when he was in the school "Female Ethics" class, which was said to be a sentence that two gentlemen once said.

"Dreams are good, but money is important. If you don't have money, you can't dream."

She remembered that when she was in school, her female destiny also told her the article "Ranger", using examples of the rewritten short novel. She couldn't help but recall the words she learned at that time and said: "If she had money and could support herself, she would have been 'not thinking about it, and that was not enough', and she was separated from her man. She should find someone to be nice to her or live alone, but she must be rich."

"What can I do if I don't have money? Either I can't go back, or I'll be scolded for my whole life when I go back to my parents' home, and I have an extra mouth for eating."

"When we first took the "Female Virtue" class in Si Shang, my husband once said that women's virtues should be self-improvement. There was no chance at first, but now they are given opportunities. Our Mohist family has always had some things that women can do, which is very good. I see the miserable life of the woman in "Rampage" unless it is solved by changing the world."

The female teacher agreed with this and said, "So I have always thought that if one day the world cannot change and we will fail, I will have to choose to die."

The gentleman smiled slightly, picked up the lid of the pot made of reeds and added some water to the pot cup. After brewing the tea leaves, he held the cup in both hands. When he was about to say something, someone knocked on the door.

He shouted and asked in, and a young man held something in his hand and said, "The rations for this month."

The young man was a local. After putting down the four packs of things, he took out a note for the person inside to sign, he looked at the four bulging packages in confusion and asked, "Why do you women have more rations than us? We only have a little tea, a small piece of soap, a toothbrush for a boar bristle every two years, a few candy pieces a season, and a few pieces of paper... Why do you have so many? What are they inside?"

When the two women in the room heard this, their faces turned slightly red, and they waved at the young man and said, "Go and go... send someone else's."

The young man didn't understand, so he left with a mutter. The two girls opened their respective packages, took out some daily necessities from it, and carefully placed some cotton tapes for the girl.

Just after packing up, someone knocked on the door and asked the other party to come in. The other party said, "Middle of autumn will be coming in a few days. You must prepare enough for this year's dinner. You will have to go to the kitchen to help you tomorrow. This time, the superiors all allocated some money to do this."

The two agreed and couldn't help but sigh: "The days are so fast, and mid-autumn is coming soon."

Mid-Autumn Festival is a season, and there is no Mid-Autumn Festival at this time.

The Mohist development method outside Si Shang used many religious methods, such as occasional dinners, handouts, etc., which are a secret regime and organizational model hidden under the formal regime.

Relying on teaching building houses, spreading crops, promoting technology, etc., and relying on dinner parties, handouts, fusi water to treat diseases, loans, etc., we formed another set of organizations of the uncrowned king under the formal regime.

Four seasons a year, a large-scale dinner is held every season, and it may not be necessary to eat too good food. However, during the dinner, the relationship between people is closer and helping people find another form of organization outside the family, etc., which are all ways for the Mohist family to spread in remote areas.

Of course, money must be paid out of the profits of trade such as iron horses and other trades, and donations from the people are not allowed, because the Mohist industry is enough to produce these small money every year that is insignificant compared to military and educational expenditures.

There are thousands of people in the entire cloud, not counting these surveying and mapping, but there are actually only fifty or sixty real people, but the people from the peripheral organizations basically include most people in the cloud: in fact, there are two sets of laws, two sets of orders, and even two sets of governments in the cloud.

The former is from the legitimate Zhao State, the latter is a secret organization, and the latter's mobilization ability is far better than the former.

Just as Deng Xizhuxing replaced the original Zheng State law, some of the Mohist laws and judgments here also basically replaced the Zhao State law here.

The difference is that Deng Xi only had disciples and no army, so he was killed by Zixuan.

The Mo family is rich, has the army and has the power to beat Tian Qi just now, so no one dares to care.

In autumn, the busy farming process is about to be busy. Organize it before the busy farming process to adjust the help of each other during the busy farming process.

But this time it seemed like I had allocated a lot of money, and I knew it was not that simple as soon as I guessed it.

Early the next morning, the entire courtyard was busy, and some local women from Yunzhong came to help. The steaming heat of killing sheep and skinning and the endless stream of people made Yunzhongcheng extremely lively, far better than the vitality of the past.

The strongholds of the Mo family in Yunzhongcheng are very obvious, and it is obvious that if they are really planning to expel the Mo people or slaughter the Mo people, they will be sure to catch them one by one.

Mills, clinics, goods warehouses, salt and iron grocery stores, literacy night schools... These are all places where you don’t need to verify that you can get one and another.

As the middle of autumn comes, Yunzhongcheng is busy around these places.

For the gentlemen and others, this is a holiday. It is too cold in winter, so the surveying and mapping people will have to rest.

I must learn in winter, because today a team from Gaoliu brought a full cart of books, which should be some new content and new resolutions from Si Shang.

In the kitchen, the gentleman was talking about some things about winter study while kneading the dough. Several people outside called her and seven or eight people's names.

After washing her hands and leaving, she received another large package, heavy.

"You can read the books sent by Si Shang for yourself first. If you don't understand something, you will ask when you go back to Si Shang for next year."

The news revealed by this sentence made these people happy and couldn't help asking: "Is I going back to Si Shang next year?"

The days outside were really hard, the man who was passing the message smiled and said, "You will know then."

I took the package and returned to my residence to open it. There was a large stack of thick paper inside, and there were several new books that were obviously printed with a thick ink smell.

The title of the top three new books would be strange if others saw it, but it is easy for a gentleman who has learned a lot in Si Shang School.
