Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1102 The photo was published in the newspaper

Before the arrival of the second batch of British envoys, Dayuer and other officials who had gone to supervise the establishment of the Dongying Province returned to the capital ahead of schedule.

However, Da Yuer and the accompanying officials discovered a problem. Since they entered the capital, the people in the capital all looked at them in unison. To be precise, they looked at Da Yuer among them.Da Yuer wondered for a few times whether there was something wrong with her appearance, but after confirmation by the accompanying officials, Da Yuer realized that it was not her fault.

It's really strange...Da Yu'er came to her elder brother's mansion with her own doubts.

"Hahaha, little sister, you will understand after reading this." Wu Keshan, the commander of the Monan Cavalry Regiment, joined forces with the Moxi Cavalry Regiment to quell the rebellion in the Western Regions, and then returned to live in the capital.After seeing Da Yuer come back, he handed a black and white newspaper to Da Yuer.

Da Yuer took the newspaper, which published the establishment of Dongying Province. A black-and-white photo was taken by Da Yuer at the Edo referendum meeting, and he was posing in an extremely novel scissors-hand pose, which made people impressed. profound.

"Ahh! No wonder so many people stared at me when I returned to the capital. Those photographers provided the photos to the Kyushu newspaper without my permission. It's really disgusting!" Da Yuer saw Her black-and-white photos were published in newspapers, and she was inevitably influenced by the values ​​of this era.

Although the status of women has improved year-on-year, it is a bit shameful for Dayuer to publish her image in newspapers and let others circulate it.

"Isn't this great? Sister, you suddenly became a celebrity in the capital, which is not necessarily a bad thing for your future. And all the young talents in the capital know that our family has a beautiful lady who is waiting to be married. How many people come to propose marriage." Wu Keshan is from the prairie, and he doesn't think a black-and-white photo in the newspaper will have any effect on fame, but he really hopes that the new rich children in the capital can come to propose marriage, so that his younger sister can get married early.

"What's the matter? Girls must behave like girls after all. It's too shameful. I must go to the photo studio to complain to them!" Da Yuer snorted coldly.

"But now there is no law that prohibits the use of other people's photos to publish in newspapers." Wu Keshan said.

"That's true... But in principle, they should get my consent to use this photo. Photos are a rare thing that have only emerged in the past two years. There are no people taking pictures in the public, and the law has not been able to keep up. It can't be because I think I don’t have that right before the law stipulates it!” Da Yuer is quite familiar with legal principles and still advocates her own views.

Wu Keshan knew that he couldn't say no to this younger sister, so he probably just went to protest with the photo studio, and then she apologized and it was over. It wouldn't cause too much trouble, so he didn't intervene too much.

"I didn't expect you to go to Dongying with Shen Youlong and others this time and come back so soon. It seems that the military master agreed to my request to keep you in the capital or nearby areas. You are not too young. Don't miss the opportunity to come back later." Crying and begging for elder brother to help you find your natal family." Wu Keshan frowned.

In his view, a woman's youth is the real capital, after the right time of youth, no matter how talented she is, she might not want to marry anyone.

"Okay, brother, I'm going back to my yard." Seeing that Wu Keshan was about to bring up her blind date again, Da Yuer hurriedly left.

Seeing Da Yuer run away, Wu Keshan couldn't help regretting why he bought a courtyard in the capital for this young girl who was very independent.

When Da Yuer returned to her courtyard, she saw Hezi who was temporarily helping her guard the courtyard.

"Sister Dayuer, you are already a celebrity in the capital. I'm afraid that none of the high-ranking officials who are eligible to participate in the Six Ministries Conference is as well-known as you among the people in the capital." Hezi joked as he came over to take Dayuer's luggage.

"I haven't bothered with you about secretly plotting against me last time, and now you're making fun of me again!" Da Yuer feigned anger.

"How dare I make fun of my sister, I'm telling the truth, sister, you are so happy in the photo, maybe the military leader also saw this photo." Hezi said that he didn't mean to tease Dayuer, but in fact Just to tease her.

Being able to watch her suffer twice in a row, Hezi felt that it was not easy, but also very interesting.

"I..." Da Yuer thought that the newspaper that published her photo was widely circulated in the capital, and the possibility that Chu Yun had seen this black-and-white photo was really unusually high.

When Da Yuer was embarrassed by her own photo, she didn't notice that the newspaper also published the news that the second batch of British envoys were about to visit Beijing.Compared with the establishment of the Dongying Province and the solution to the dire situation of the Dongying people, the visit of the British envoys is relatively minor.

However, for other Western businessmen trading in the capital, the news that the British envoys came to the capital of China for the second time was even more shocking than the annexation of Japan!

Sending an envoy to the East for the first time can be regarded as a normal visit, but the British sent another envoy the next year, which means that the two sides have reached some kind of special deal behind the scenes!

A Spanish merchant ship was berthed at Tianjin Wharf. The Spanish merchant who once had maritime supremacy heard the news and realized that the arrival of the envoy this time would be something that would change Western history.We must know that the annexation of Japan only affects the national disputes in the East, and Britain's secret deal with the most powerful empire in the East may change the situation in Europe.

In the Age of Discovery, the distance of tens of thousands of miles between East and West is still a headache.However, it is much faster than relying on Arab merchants as a channel to take the Silk Road in the past. Tariff changes in the East will more or less affect the Western countries.In particular, the Kyushu Army controlled the Spice Islands, and the spices in Southeast Asia were monopolized by the Kyushu Army.As long as the Kyushu Army raises taxes, Europe can only purchase spices and homemade cloth from India, which cannot meet the huge demand in Europe.

"Cunning British pirates, they don't know what they are thinking, do they want to act as Arabs on the sea to monopolize the trade between the East and the West?" The captain of the Spanish merchant ship asked a person who understands Chinese to report the news about the British mission in the newspaper. The report about the arrival was translated into Spanish and read to him, and he quickly noticed something wrong with it.
