Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

After struggling for a while, I thought life would return to normal.

On a relatively cool summer day, the sunlight seemed to be crushed and fell on Liangzhou City.

The first library of Liangzhou City officially opened.

Due to the fame of Prince Rui and his wife, countless people came to congratulate them. Even Lord Shi, the governor of Liangzhou City, was invited by Prince Rui to cut the ribbon together.

The prefect came with his wife and daughter to congratulate, followed by the magistrate Chen with his wife, Mr. Guan and Mrs. Guan from the Guan family, followed by the third son of the Guan family who lowered his head. Other prestigious and wealthy families in Liangzhou City came in an endless stream, and even the manager Xie of the Bai family stationed in Liangzhou City came in person to congratulate.

The people in the city were saying that the Liangzhou City Library was extraordinary. Although it was the property of the Fang family, it was strongly supported by His Royal Highness Prince Rui. The grand opening ceremony alone was almost as grand as the one when the prince married the princess.

The key point is that the publicity for the parade is even more eye-catching. Two girls who are as beautiful as the most beautiful courtesans are dancing on two carriages. There is no carriage on the carriage, and it is an open-air carriage.

The band in the front was beating drums and gongs, shaking the earth, and the music they played was so beautiful and cheerful!

Behind the band were handsome young men holding signs and pretty girls in colorful clothes. Anyone who could read could see at a glance the large words "Liangzhou City's First Library" on the cloth banner in the first row, shining brightly with golden light, followed by a dash and four smaller words "Fang Group".

In addition, various billboards and slogans are flying everywhere.

Like "Join once, get free membership for life!"

"A paradise for children from poor families, and the first choice for children from wealthy families!"

"Character determines height, and reading changes destiny!"

“Learning makes one a man, reading makes one wise, and reading history makes one wise.”

"Books contain golden houses and beautiful women!" It is so fancy and dazzling.

It’s no wonder that many people were deeply moved and benefited greatly from these words after hearing them.

"The Fang family seemed to have collapsed, but they managed to make a comeback and climbed up to the high position of the prince."

"The Fang family's structure is really unique. The library is open to everyone for free. What's the point?"

"Do you think it's really free? I'll collect your deposit first and then find a way to deduct your deposit later."

"I heard that the property deed and household registration are fine, so how can the deposit be withheld?"

The onlookers were talking about it in a flurry, some saying it was good, some saying it was bad, and it was difficult to satisfy everyone.

"Why don't you try and find out the truth? Why are you mumbling nonsense here?" A voice came from behind, but no one was seen.

It turned out to be Master Murong who was passing by.

As the CEO of the Fang family, Luo Yu and Uncle Fang welcomed the guests together.

The smile on his face was so stiff that it looked like it was carved.

The uncle was obviously more capable than her. His smile was sincere, his tone was warm, and even his movements were gentle and polite, as if he had been trained.

Yan Xuan and He Yuan, who were standing below and watching, whispered to each other: "I never thought that the powerful Miss Bai would have such a weak side."

"She's not afraid of meeting important people, but she's a little hypocritical."

"She usually only smiles a little towards Miss Qin, Brother Baihu, and Aunt Xiaoyifang. To us, she doesn't smile at all every day, as if she has no emotions at all."

"She may just be feeling a little tired and doesn't want to please everyone too much." Yan Xuan and He Yuan turned around and saw that it was Murong Huaijin.

This guy is similar, he usually has a cold face and is very fake.

After everyone is present, it is the leader's turn to speak.

Luo Yu handed Prince Rui a wooden loudspeaker. She had specially hired a skilled craftsman to make it, and the effect was very good, at least it had a certain amplification effect.

As a member of the royal family, he was very majestic standing on the stage, and speaking in public was like a natural leader. Luo Yu couldn't help but marvel at it.

She had to speak in front of so many people. Although she was not stage-frightened, she certainly could not speak as eloquently as His Royal Highness Prince Rui, who spoke for half an incense stick of time without stopping.

The people who came to watch the excitement didn't dare to leave. Under the scorching sun, many of them were secretly wiping the sweat from their foreheads.

If the princess had not secretly pinched the prince's elbow, he could have talked for another half an incense stick.

The prince finished his words, handed the loudspeaker to Luo Yu, and whispered, "This thing is really good. Could it be from Prince Ning's side?"

"Yes."

Luo Yu then handed the megaphone to the prefect, Lord Shi, and asked him to speak. Lord Shi coughed lightly and delivered a few high-sounding official speeches, lauding the emperor's wisdom and might, admired by the people, and praising the prince's broad mind and selfless dedication. Finally, he praised the Fang Group for its efforts to benefit the people, saying that these were all benefits for the people of Liangzhou City... He spoke with great enthusiasm and excitement, but the audience below seemed indifferent...

The loudspeaker fell into Luo's hands again, and she simply said, "We at Liangzhou First Library are honest and principled. We welcome everyone to join us!"

Finally, the prince was asked to cut the ribbon, and Luo Yu led the applause, followed by several actors in the audience. The people, not knowing why, also followed suit and applauded. Qin Bingrui waved his hand and asked the people who were beating gongs and drums nearby to play their instruments and chant "Good Day".

Anyone can then enter the library and register to join.

It was also at this time that Dean Wenshan went to congratulate with a teacher and several students.

The timing was perfect. Qin Bingrui didn't want to ask him about his well-being, so he asked directly: "Director Wenshan, do you have any gifts?"

"Mr. Qin, since you are helping to teach the students, I naturally dare not neglect you. Look, I have brought you some goodies that will definitely satisfy you."

"Okay, okay, my brother Wen is the best to me."

Director Wenshan almost wiped his sweat. This woman was used to talking nonsense. He thought she was the disciple of a talented person from other worldly affairs, so he didn't bother with her.

When they entered a reception room in the library, His Royal Highness Prince Rui, the prefect Shi, and the magistrate Li were all there. It was a mess outside and there was no one to entertain them.

Prince Rui was in high spirits and looked relaxed. He considered today's scene and grandeur, as well as the gratitude on the faces of the people, as a glory to him.

Miss Bai is really capable and gave all the credit to the prince. Not bad!

Lord Shi was restless and wanted to take the opportunity to flatter. Before he could say a few words, he saw Qin Bingrui leading Minister Wenshan into the room.

He hesitated for a moment. How long had this Miss Qin been in Liangzhou City? How come she had established such a seemingly close relationship with Dean Wenshan of Songming Academy?

You have to know that old man Wen usually doesn't take officials' families seriously. If they can't get into the academy and he doesn't give them money, he won't let the children of officials study at Songming Academy.

The principal of Songming Academy has always been appointed by the emperor, so they dare not say anything.

When Director Wenshan presented the things, Qin Bingrui discovered that they were actually three pairs of crystal glasses.

It's true that gifts are not cheap, and the sentiment is also heavy. This natural crystal should be a precious mineral in this dynasty.

He immediately pulled Old Man Wen aside and muttered, "Don't reveal that it was my master who spread this. Just say that His Royal Highness Prince Ning ordered me to spread it. It's more reliable to put these under his name. I'll teach you how to make other things when I have time."

"I understand!" When Wenshan Chang heard that there were more useful things coming up, his face was beaming with joy.

Later, under the introduction and promotion of Wenshanzhang, the prince and Lord Shi and Lord Li all thought about trying two different pairs of glasses, one pair of reading glasses and the other pair of myopia glasses.

As a result, the prince and Lord Shi really found out through the test that the prince could see more clearly with his myopic glasses, while Lord Shi could see more clearly with his reading glasses.

The princess and Madam Shi didn't feel anything, they just felt dizzy.

Mr. Shi is almost fifty-two years old this year. After listening to what Director Wenshan said, he quickly realized that he was already very old.

"These reading glasses are only suitable for older men. Young people can't wear them. The principle behind this is hard to explain right now. I'd like to hear the theories that students at our academy have figured out and see the scientific experiments. It's very interesting."

"Excuse me, Mr. Wen, could you please find someone to make me a pair of these glasses? I'm happy to pay any price!" Lord Shi thought about his presbyopia, and no wonder it was difficult for him to read at night, and he felt even more depressed.

The prince first looked at Qin Bingrui and then at Wenshanzhang, with a smile on his face, and asked, "Who invented these glasses? Could it be that it's my brother Zhu Jinyou, the Fourteenth Prince of Ning, who invented them again?"

"Exactly."
