After the whole sect traveled to ancient times, I led the rebellion

Many of the radical remarks made in the restaurant these days were passed on to the government office through the restaurant's waiters.

When Yuehong was in Huang County, many men stopped their wives from going out to work.

Yuehong still remembers clearly the look in Axia's eyes at that time.

Axia is hardworking and capable, but her husband often beats and scolds her. Since Axia went to work in the factory, she divorced her husband.

This incident caused quite a stir in Huang County, but it did not affect Axia.

Ah Xia never missed any opportunity. She went from being illiterate to attending night school and then becoming one of the factory managers with her own abilities.

What Yuehong saw was the woman's vigorous vitality.

Since Lord Mu had entrusted the recruitment matter to her, she naturally would not let Lord Mu worry.

Yuehong was one of the few female officials in Anping, and these scholars had never heard of her before.

When it came to recruiting workers for the factory, Yuehong started with the factory's welfare benefits and first attracted those women who were forced to come out to help support their families due to financial difficulties.

Because she was educated, Yuehong knew the influence of words.

She published an article she wrote in a newspaper in Anping.

The article quotes classics and lists the women who have made great contributions to the history of the dynasty.

Having written this, the second half of the article focuses on describing the current situation of the Huangxian girl.

The girls in Huangxian are different from those in Anping. They can go out freely, are literate, and earn their own wages through labor.

Even the men in Huang County were proud to marry a literate and capable girl.

Most of Anping’s newspapers are sold to wealthy families.

That is why young ladies from wealthy families would also be exposed to Anping newspapers.

Xiao Lingyao, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, has been disciplined by her family since she was a child.

She is filial, gentle, virtuous, and meets the requirements of outsiders for a qualified wife.

Xiao Lingyao has not left her house since she came of age. Last month, at the suggestion of a matchmaker, Xiao Lingyao got engaged to a man she had never met.

She had been obedient since she was a child and did not think there was anything wrong with her mother's behavior. She just felt depressed.

In fact, Xiao Lingyao didn't like needlework, didn't like staying in this small house, and she even didn't like her own personality at all.

She likes all kinds of books.

Xiao Lingyao secretly read the Four Books and Five Classics, as well as miscellaneous essays and newspaper reports. She yearned for the outside world.

But she has lived like this since she was a child. Her mother told her that she is a woman and should live like this.

Xiao Lingyao had been curious about how other women lived, but in Anping, all the women here were like her.

Xiao Lingyao picked up a newspaper at random. The official bulletin from Shengjing had not been published for several months. Since her engagement, her mother had put away all her books.

She sneaked into her eldest brother's study today without telling her mother and was able to get access to the newspaper again.

Xiao Lingyao had never read the newspapers published in Anping. When she saw that the Zhao family was colluding with the refugee army, she subconsciously stood on the side of the people of Anping.

There was not much content in the newspaper. Xiao Lingyao clearly saw the announcement that the textile factory was recruiting female workers, and naturally he also saw Yuehong's article.

Xiao Lingyao read the article carefully over and over again, describing the life of the girl from Huang County.

No one had ever told her that.

Women can also be officials and work in factories.

The article also explains why the textile factory only hired female workers.

The looms were expensive, and only careful women could do the job.

Xiao Lingyao held the newspaper for a long time, unable to come back to his senses, until he heard the conversation between his father and elder brother in the distance.

"Anping has changed a long time ago. The changes that the child prodigy brought to Anping are not a blessing for our Xiao family. It is even more absurd for the textile factory to recruit female workers."

The elder brother's words gradually became clear:

"If the Zhao family hadn't been defeated by that man, my Xiao family wouldn't be in such a dilemma..."

Xiao Lingyao covered her mouth and waited until the voices of the two people faded away before she came out from behind the door.

After meeting the girl from Huang County, Xiao Lingyao finally understood her own annoyance. She didn't want to marry a man she had never met. She also wanted to be like the girl from Huang County.

Xiao Lingyao was thinking about something, with a little excitement on his face.

A girl from Huang County could become an official, so why couldn't she?

It was not difficult to spread newspapers in Anping, as long as the storytellers in the restaurants and the officials near the public notice offices read out the contents of the paper.

The people of Anping can get a general idea.

Although the people of Anping went out less often, they would always pass by the public notice office when buying salt and grain, and naturally they knew the difference between Huangxian and Anping.

Today, Huang County has grown from a small county to a medium-sized county within just one year.

The people of Huangxian are much richer than those in Anping.

In order to earn some money, Zhang San stayed in the grain shop in Anping during the winter.

The grain shop was newly opened. Zhang San was a smart man and had now become a minor official in Anping, collecting intelligence everywhere.

But on the surface he is still an ordinary grain merchant.

The people of Anping are on good terms with Zhang San.

They were curious about the rice yield per mu in Huang County before, and now they are naturally curious about whether the woman in Huang County is really the same as what was said in the newspaper.

When this is mentioned, Zhang San has something to say again.

He first tightened his sleeves and then sat on a small stool.

When the people around who were asking for news saw Zhang San's appearance, they knew that he had something to say and hurriedly surrounded him.

"In Huang County, it's a big deal for a girl to be able to work in a factory. All factories run night schools."

Factory workers who want to increase their salary or get promoted have to go to night school, and only those who successfully graduate have a chance of being promoted.

The workers and common people working in Anping also knew about it. They nodded and signaled Zhang San to continue.

"These women receive the same wages as male workers, and they can read and write. You don't know this in Anping because there is no county school."

He rubbed his hands.

“The female officials in Huang County are all as smart and capable as Lady Yuehong, and the female workers in the factory are no worse.

Many couples work in factories together and can earn 20 wen a day. Now I heard that their wages have increased and they can earn more. "

"Female factory workers are very popular in our county nowadays. Money is one thing for them to work in a factory, but the most important thing is that they can learn to read. When you have children in the future, you should send them to the county school."

"What does this have to do with the county school?"

Some people nearby were confused and couldn't understand what Zhang San said.

"Of course it does matter." Zhang San imitated the man's tone and said:

"You can enter the county school in Huang County by paying 20 coins, and after graduation you may even be able to work as an official in the government.

The couple are both literate, so they can teach their children. This way, your children will learn faster than others. The early bird catches the worm. Do you know this word? "

Zhang San stretched his hand out of his sleeve:

"Anyway, I just want to marry a girl who works in a factory."

He chuckled, and the people around him were stunned after hearing what he said.
