"Is this letter express store specially used for sending letters?" Tori had never thought of such a store, and asked in surprise, "Aren't you afraid of losing money? It seems that not many people can send letters at all, right? Many civilians Can't read, of course, except for Xiyang City."
The current literacy rate in Xiyang City really surprised Tori. In the past, all the civilians who came to his store were illiterate, but now three or four of the ten civilians are literate.
How long has it been since [-] to [-]% of the common people are literate? Then after winter, the literacy rate in Xiyang City will not exceed half?
"I don't know, maybe the city lord has some special plan?" Ryan shook his head and took out a bun from the paper bag and took a bite.
"I'll go and see with you." Tori suggested, he was curious about how the letter delivery works.
"Okay." Ryan smiled lightly, took Lizao, and talked with Tori, and they walked to the letter delivery shop.
The location of the store is not on the main avenue, but on the second road, which is relatively remote, so that there will be more people in the future so that the main avenue will not be congested.
Now there are four avenues in Xiyang City, one is the main avenue leading directly from the city gate to the castle, the other two are parallel to both sides of the main avenue, and the remaining one forms a 'cross' with the three avenues, which is a horizontal avenue.
Of course, besides the main avenue, besides the main avenue there are many buildings, not many buildings have been built on the other avenues. The future appearance of Xiyang City planned by Liu Feng requires dozens of buildings on a single avenue.
"Ta Tata..."
The three of them walked to the second avenue, and saw a lot of people lined up outside the door of a house from a distance, which made the three of them look at each other in blank dismay. Could it be that the letter express business is also booming?
"Come on, go over and have a look." Tori's fat body walked forward quickly with short feet.
"Huh? Are you also writing letters home?"
"Yeah, I want to tell my family about the situation here so that they don't have to worry. When I make money, I'll move out, rent a bigger house, and bring all my family members here."
"Yes, there is hope in Xiyang City. As long as I work hard, I will be able to pay a down payment in a few years, and then I will have a home that truly belongs to me."
"Hehehe... Coming to Xiyang City back then was really the smartest decision in my life."
"Hahaha...Isn't that right, I wrote home this time because I wanted my elder brother to come with me."
When Tori, Ryan and Lizao approached, they heard many such discussions, which made the three of them very moved.
"Everyone really respects the city lord." Li Zao sighed. Every time she went out to buy things, she would hear words of praise for the city lord.
"Lord Liu Feng is a good city lord and a real nobleman." Tori said seriously, he also only recently understood the true meaning of nobility, the nobleman who is respected and loved by the common people is the real nobleman, and the nobleman who is feared by the commoners is the worst failure of.
"Let's go, let's go in and have a look." Ryan said bluntly, it was Lord Liu Feng's charisma that made him serve his life sincerely.
The letter express door enters, and the inside is divided into two sides. The front of the counter on one side is written to handle the mail, and the other side is written to send the mail on behalf of the writer.
"Huh? What does this ghostwriting mean?" Tori asked curiously.
"Go up and have a look." Ryan stepped forward, and saw two girls writing behind the counter, and two civilians in front of the counter, talking to the girls at this time.
"What else do you want to say?" After the girl finished writing, she raised her head and asked, "Do you want to add some blessings?"
Civilian: "Okay, okay, sorry to trouble you."
"No trouble." The girl shook her head, wrote a few words of congratulations, put it in an envelope, sealed it with hot resin, and asked, "Where is your home address?"
The commoner hurriedly read: "The address is Soka's house in Nine Lanes, West Street, Beifeng City."
The girl lowered her head and wrote the address on the envelope, and said softly, "Okay, the fee is three copper coins, and it will take five days to arrive at your home."
"Okay, it's coming soon, soon." The commoner smiled and took out three copper coins and put them down. It was the best thing to be able to communicate with the family.
"If your family members are illiterate, our letter express also has a branch in Beifeng City, and they can ask the ghostwriter in the letter express." The girl who is also the ghostwriter said softly.
"It's really great, thank you very much." The commoner shouted happily.
"You're welcome." The ghostwriter chuckled, this job is really great.
Chapter 0423 probably needs negotiation.
"Thank you!" The commoner thanked again, and left the letter delivery with longing in his heart, imagining the expressions on his relatives when they saw him send the letter home, they must be very amazed.
"Next." The ghostwriter girl shouted to the civilians sitting aside.
"Come right now." A civilian stood up and shouted.
The letter express shop is not very big, except for the office space, the small room for storing letters, and the accompanying reading room, there can only be a dozen or so chairs in the lobby, which are for civilians to sit while waiting.
For letter express, there is now a reading room, which is to invite some people who can read to read letters to the common people. After all, most civilians do not know how to read, so there is a reading room.
Of course, you can also ask the accompanying reader to help you write a reply in the accompanying reading room, just like a ghostwriter, except that there is an additional accompanying reading service.
This function is mainly used in other cities. In the future, there will be more literate people in Xiyang City, and fewer people will go to the reading room.
Tori, looking at Ryan and Lizao, they finally understood why so many people came for the letter express, and with such considerate service, civilians would not be able to come.
"This is the charm of the Lord of the City. He can always turn some small things into a big one." Ryan admired. What he was talking about was the pattern, the height of the person standing, and the point of view is different.
If it was an ordinary nobleman, maybe he would only think of delivering letters for the nobles, even if he was delivering letters, he would definitely not think of finding someone to write or read letters for the common people.
"This is the magic of Mr. Liu Feng." Tori shook his head and sighed. He thought that the depression of Beifeng City might be even worse now, after all, Xiyang City had already developed.
"I'm going to send the letter." Lizao said softly, she wanted to send a letter to her friends in Lime City.
"Then I will also write a letter to Father." Tori walked to the counter of the ghostwriter.
With such an opportunity, Tori felt that he would write a letter back to North Wind City to say hello, lest he be reprimanded by his father for not hearing from him again.
"Sir, may I help you?" The ghostwriter looked at Tori and said, "If you are here to write a letter, please line up first."
"No, I want to write the letter by myself, can you give me a pen and paper?" Tori shook his head and said, he can read, it is better to write by himself.
