...

"Oh, a group of ordinary people are really unreasonable..."

Kong Lian looked at the guest eating meat in big mouthfuls, swallowed his saliva hard, muttered sourly, then continued to lean over and pick up the vinegar stone and stuffed it into his mouth for a while, fantasizing about the situation where he was eating chicken, and then smacked his lips with a mouthful of white wine.

The guests and bartenders in the restaurant knew Kong Lian's virtues. After laughing for a while, they no longer paid attention to him and continued to drink on their own.

At this time, an eleven or twelve-year-old child walked into the cafeteria and shouted: "Selling newspapers, do you want to sell newspapers? Two cents per copy, the new Far East Times..."

"Give me a copy..."

"I'll give you one too..."

After the problem of food and clothing for ordinary people in Yong'an was solved, the newspapers that they liked to read most when they were free. The price of ordering two to five documents per copy was very affordable and affordable, and it was the spiritual food for ordinary people.

Soon, the newspaper boy lost more than a dozen newspapers in his hand. He happily left the other restaurants with more than twenty cents. Today, the school was on holiday, so he also took the opportunity to subsidize his family and reduce the burden on his family.

In fact, school study has reduced the burden on these children's families, but after all, many families are still not rich and still need to work hard to subsidize their families.

In the wine shop, the sound of brushing newspapers was soon heard. Anyone who knew literacy carefully looked at the contents of the newspapers, and from time to time commented on the peers who drank at the table, which was quite meaningful to give advice.

Kong Lian also likes to read the contents in the newspaper. Although he is very dissatisfied with Liu Ce's actions in power in Jizhou, and even has unreasonable resentment, he still cannot stop his attitude of liking to read the newspaper.

However, he did not buy newspapers today because now he is penniless and has no money to buy newspapers. He can only listen to the guests around him reading the contents of the newspapers with his ears...

He heard only one of the guests holding the newspaper and chanting loudly: "Qin Mo and Qin strongly condemn Gaomi's rebels' intention to split the Great Zhou. The Military Governor's Office called on Gaomi to remain calm and put the overall situation first. Don't make mistakes again and again, treat the people of the world and ignore them, and do things that hurt the relatives and the enemy are happy.

At the same time, I hope that all the worlds will maintain restraint and do not start a war, strive for a peaceful resolution of the current disputes, and restore peace to the world. The Governor's Office will follow the principle of peace as the most important thing, and try its best to reconcile the situation in a central way to avoid the situation from developing in an irreversible direction..."

The Gaomi rebellion and establishment of the Great Qi Dynasty have spread throughout the Central Plains, but it will take at least a few months for many places to fully convey it. However, with the newspapers as a powerful public opinion tool, it will be known in just a few days for the whole of Jizhou and the entire Far East...

After listening to the guest's comments, everyone in the restaurant sighed. Now the Great Zhou royal family has temporarily moved to the Wudu in Shu, and the situation in the capital of the Central Plains is in chaos. All the families who responded to the kings are secretly expanding their own forces. When the spring of the next year will be in full swing, there will be a fierce battle for the gods in the Central Plains. No one knows how many people will die at that time...

Of course, more people in the restaurant are glad that they are currently in the border county of Jizhou. The iron army of the Military Governor's Office protects their wealth and security and can live and work here without worrying about being affected by the war. They are still full of gratitude to the Military Governor's Office and Liu Ce.

After hearing what the man read, Kong Lian sighed, and looked worried about the country and the people. He couldn't help but say loudly: "As a Confucian son, he cannot serve the court with all his heart..."

Unexpectedly, Kong Lian's words immediately attracted the attention of the guests around him. Everyone knew Kong Lian's virtues. Such people were timid and afraid of things and had no ability, but they always felt that they were full of knowledge and were not valued. After all, they were just a hypocrite with different opinions.

They are also Confucian scholars, Qin Mo and Qin are in line with their words and deeds, and they are all dedicated to making a living for the military governor's office and the people. They never speak loudly, which makes people feel particularly comfortable, like a white jade gentleman, without any flaws.

The gap is compared...

The guest flipped through a page of newspaper and continued to chant: "Chen Qingyan, the commander-in-chief of northern Hebei, although the thieves in Hulan in the eastern grasslands were peaceful, the ethnic groups and the military governor's office have had close contacts recently. However, under the rare opportunity of achieving peaceful coexistence between the outside of the Great Wall and Jizhou, there are still a small group of foreign horse bandits with ulterior motives who are obsessed with ulterior motives.

He is willing to act as a minion for the Hulan people who are already like a broken dog, and repeatedly invade tribal people on the edge of Shuofang City, causing great trouble to the construction of Shuofang City, and was also jointly condemned by the people of all tribes.

In response to this, the commander-in-chief Chen Qing said that the Military Governor's Office would never tolerate such a clown who attempted to destroy the hard-earned peace, and would definitely make them pay a heavy price.

In addition, Commander-in-Chief Chen called on the people of the Central Plains and those outside the Great Wall who settled their homes and worked outside the Great Wall to effectively protect their lives. If you find the traces of horse bandits, you must notify the border soldiers patrolling the grassland as soon as possible..."

The content of this passage is actually releasing a message that the border is not peaceful. Although the Hulan people, the largest force, were beaten to almost the entire tribe, there are still tribes that are unwilling to cooperate with the Military Governor's Office. If any vendor wants to go out to do business, be sure to bring more guards to accompany you to avoid accidents.

Kong Lian heard the contents of the newspaper and took a sip of wine. He smacked his lips and said, "As the saying goes, harmony is the most important. The Military Governor's Office has always used tough measures to force people to surrender, which will inevitably cause a rebound among foreigners. After all, it is better to use the ancient sages to guide them and slowly educate them..."

"fart!"

As soon as Kong Lian finished speaking, a guest couldn't help but curse at him.

"What are you talking about, a poor scholar? What are you talking about? The saints are taught? I think you are stupid in studying? You respect the saints so much, but you want to tame them! Do you dare?"

Faced with the guests' ridicule, Kong Lian quickly shrank his head, said to himself that it was really unreasonable, and then picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the wine, just pretending that he hadn't heard the words just now.

Everyone in the restaurant just paused for this little episode, but no one cared about it. The guest looked back at Kong Lian, and then continued to read the newspaper.

I saw him frowning and thinking:

"Military Staff and Political Consultative Officer Ye Yin and Ye Gongzi pointed out at a regular internal affairs meeting of the Military Governor's Office that the prerequisite for determining family status should not be determined by the superiority of men and women, but should be measured by the contribution and ability to the family.

He gave an example that in a family, the husband's income is five taels and the wife's income is ten taels. What is the face of the husband at this time? Otherwise, the same is true. At the same time, Mr. Ye emphasized that the most powerful condition to determine the status of the family is income comparison!”

(The theory of Zongheng is that interests come first)

After reading these words, the wine shop suddenly became silent. In fact, many old and young men in the wine shop were very embarrassed.

Women are engaged in more and more industries in various places in Jizhou and Hanling. Women are emerging everywhere in the animal husbandry, spinning, business, and education. Moreover, their income is not low, they are hardworking and willing to endure hardships. It is common for them to earn several times more than their own men...

What's even more terrifying is that in the past, those women basically stayed at home to take care of the elderly and children, or learned to be female celebrities, and their knowledge was much shorter than men.

But now Liu Ce and Qin Mo directly encourage women to go out to the streets, especially after forcing girls of appropriate age to enroll for free, this situation has already shown signs of "badness". Now that women have seen the world, they have their own thoughts and consciousness. After they have earned income and proved that they are capable of taking care of themselves, they have begun to have some subtle changes in their own men, especially those who make less money...

This made many men feel a deep sense of crisis. Many people even protested privately against the military governor's office for such violations of "human ethics" and suggested canceling a series of rights given to women by the military governor's office to avoid the chaos of "yin is prosperous and yang is declining"...

This situation even alarmed the Governor's Office in the Far East. At the beginning of October, Jiang Xun personally went to the Governor's Office to strongly demand Qin Mo cancel this measure in the name of Governor. Qin Mo debated with Jiang Xun in the office for more than three hours under tremendous pressure. Finally, Qin Mo finally sent him away with "the Governor comes back and discusses it again" and "will consider it carefully".

After all the female workers and school teachers in all walks of life finally tasted the sweetness of wealth gained by their own labor, when they learned that Jiang Xun forced Qin Mo to abandon this policy with high pressure, they all worried that their destiny would return to the starting point.

As a result, the next issue of the newly published Far East Times clearly stipulated that the internal affairs of Jizhou will not be interfered with.

Just a few short words completely relieved those women, and at the same time, many men who were still firm in their hearts were discouraged.

When Jiang Xun saw the contents of the Far East Times, his first reaction was that he felt that he had been fooled, so he went to the kitchen and took a kitchen knife to enter the Yong'an Military Governor's Office alone, threatening to have a fair showdown with Qin Mo. Fortunately, he was stopped by Mrs. Shi and the housekeeper, and he persuaded him to understand the relationship between Liu Ce and the Jiang family, which made Jiang Xun calm down and no longer ask about Jizhou.

In short, Ye Yin’s statement in the newspaper is a mixed reputation. Many people secretly scolded Ye Yin for not being a man, and their elbows always move closer to women...

In fact, they were completely overthinking. Overall, conservative women accounted for the majority of Jizhou, and there were only a handful of women with abilities that surpass men. This policy has further stimulated men's will and worked harder for their own face and for the change of their family.

Kong Lian had no other reaction to such news except for a few words of insult to express his dissatisfaction. He continued to pick up the stone dipped in vinegar and stuff it into his mouth to suck it with relish.

When he spit out the stones again and put them on the vinegar plate, a soldier wearing a military cloak suddenly appeared outside the diner. After looking into the diner for a while, he went straight to Kong Lian's low table and sat down on the ground cross-legged.

Kong Lian didn't care who was sitting opposite him. He continued to pour half a glass of wine and drank it in one sip. But he thought that he found that the wine in the wine pot was empty.

"Why……"

Kong Lian sighed. It was obvious that he had not had enough drinks, but now he had no money on him, so he had to get up and prepare to leave.

At this moment, he grabbed him at the top sergeant in front of the case: "Brother Kong, I haven't seen you for a long time..."

Kong Lian felt a strong force coming from his arm, and couldn't help but show a look of pain. He also heard the sound that seemed very familiar. Then he looked up and suddenly felt that the sergeant smiling at him had a faint heroic spirit between his eyebrows, and he seemed to be very familiar.

After a long time, Kong Lian's pupils suddenly shrank and he exclaimed: "Hu...Hu Qing... Why are you?"

This sergeant was one of the first batch of recruits in the first half of the year - Hu Qing.
