I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 709 Comparable to a saint?

"It can be false, not to mention that I saw it with my own eyes. There are so many people on the street, even if you just grab a random question, they may know better than me."

"I guess you may not know that the two hottest jobs in the capital are working as a worker in a workshop and being a coal driver.

That's a money-making business that you can't squeeze in! "

Sun Ruowei said in a daze,
"When will the hardest and most tiring work need to be fought for? Brother Yang, are you kidding me?"

Yang Dao shook his head vigorously and said,

"Naturally, they earn a lot of money, and the benefits are good. Let's not talk about how well the workers in the workshop are paid, but just talk about the coal truckers.

They have a clear division of labor, and each person is responsible for the transportation of coal on one street.

If someone is lucky enough to get an order from a big family like our Yang family, the order from our family alone is enough for him to earn three to five taels a month.

In other words, they are not just supplying goods to our family. It is not uncommon for the person who earns the most to earn more than ten taels a month.

If they can make so much money in a month, then they are rushing to do it! "

Yang Suwen and the two of them showed disbelief when they heard this.

But Yang Dao's words were so convincing that it seemed like he was talking big. When he saw the happy smiles on the faces of the coachmen, he became more sure that his words might be true.

Yang Suwen couldn't help thinking in his heart,
"It seems that we still know too little about the Zhu family's emperor. We never imagined that he is such a good emperor who loves the people like a son."

Then he sighed to himself again,
"Fortunately, I got to know Yang Dao before meeting the emperor, otherwise we might have been kept in the dark, being used by others without knowing it."

Thinking of this, he wanted to know even more what the answer Li Tian left for them was.

The carriage continued to move forward, and Yang Dao then picked the most important ones, such as the Tiangongyuan, the Exchange, and the soap workshop, which have brought about earth-shaking changes to the people of the capital, and other things that have appeared in the past six months. people listen.

This is the first time that the two have learned about the changes in the capital during this period of time.

Not only did he listen with gusto, but he couldn't help but add a few sentences when he was excited, which greatly satisfied Yang Dao's show-off mentality.

After talking about this, let's talk about the Beijing News.

Talking about those interesting short stories in the Beijing News, Sun Ruowei almost narrowed his eyes into a heart shape.

But Yang Suwen was more concerned about the recent news of various important events in the court that would be published in every issue of the Beijing News.

Seeing that the two were so interested in the Beijing News, Yang Dao said to them,
"My family is one of the subscribers of the Beijing News. Every issue of the Beijing News is kept by my family. My father has also served as the editor of several issues. If you want to read it, I will find it all and give it to you when I come back. Look, I'll keep you watching it once and enjoy it."

"Do you know what interests me the most in the Beijing News!"

The two of them had never read the Beijing News, so how could they know there were other interesting things besides the court events and short stories?

Yang Dao showed a mysterious expression and said,
"Actually, I am most interested in the popular science knowledge in each issue above!"

"What is science... science popularization!"

"It may be a bit difficult to explain this to you, but it is actually an explanation of some common sense knowledge!"

"For example, why the sun shines and heats up, why the four seasons change in the world, and why the river freezes in winter!

For example, if you get lost in the wild, how to identify the direction, when there is no flint and steel, what to use to make fire, etc..."

Sun Ruowei felt fresh when he heard this, and didn't think it was anything special.

But Yang Suwen's body trembled when he heard it.

These little knowledges may seem ordinary, but when it comes to their principles, not many people can explain them, especially the few little knowledges that Yang Dao mentioned later.

That is essential knowledge for a large army to march and fight in the wild.

He also read books for more than ten years, and only after many arguments did he come up with a little superficial conclusion.

Unexpectedly, the small Beijing News can pass on the knowledge that others need to accumulate for decades to pass on to the people of the world free of charge and selflessly.

He couldn't help sighing,
"The person who spreads this kind of knowledge is really a person whose virtue is comparable to that of a saint."

Yang Dao smiled knowingly,
"You may not believe it, but the author of this special section is actually His Majesty today!"

"Ah, how is this possible, His Majesty's knowledge is so extensive!"

"At the beginning, I didn't believe it either, and like you, I also questioned whether it was compiled by someone else and published in the name of His Majesty.

But then my father told me that for ordinary knowledge, others may be able to find some clues by reading a lot of books, but there are many things that even if you read all the books, you can’t find the answer, but His Majesty can give you all. answer. "

"Don't look at my father who is usually amiable, but he never lies. If he said that His Majesty made it up, then he must be right."

Speaking of this, not only Sun Ruowei became more curious about Li Tian, ​​but even Yang Suwen was shocked.

"Such an emperor who is comparable to a sage and has extensive knowledge, is he really the one who secretly instigated his subordinates to persecute Jianwen's old ministers!
Did we make a mistake from the start! "

With such doubts and yearning for that explanation, they soon came to the gate of the city.

The interrogation at the gate of the city today is particularly strict. No matter who it is, they must show their ID cards, and they can only be released after they are confirmed to be correct.

If it was normal, with Ping Yangdao's status, he could easily take people out with just a few words.

But today is different, Li Tian gave the order to die, and no one can be an exception.

But they had nothing to be afraid of. Although the names on the identity cards of Yang Suwen and the others were fake, the cards were real. Otherwise, they would not have been able to sneak into the capital easily.

Coupled with Yang Dao, the famous second generation of the capital, as a guarantee, although it took a lot of twists and turns, they passed the city gate smoothly in the end.

However, their whereabouts were still being followed by interested people.

A small soldier who was in the procession of checking the passing pedestrians, after taking note of the appearance of the three people, turned his head and left, and he did not know who to report to.

The three came outside the city. There were not many pedestrians on the road, and the carriage started to speed up. It didn't take long to arrive at Huangzhuang in the suburbs, which was the destination of their trip today.
