This is courtesy, but also a demonstration, at least in Li Dingguo's view, it is a demonstration, and they can go to Sichuan by water in a very short time, which means that they can quickly transport the army to Sichuan by boat, but it is goodwill.

After Li Dingguo finished dinner, he remained silent and refused the person Li Xiangqian said to send him back, but went back to the temporary guest house by himself.

"Third brother, what do you think, these people are so arrogant, it's not like a place for our masters to stay."

Li Dingguo looked at this brother, Zhang Xianzhong adopted a lot of adopted sons, the most famous of which is Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi, this is not very famous, after coming to the imperial capital, it seems that because of something, he was ridiculed by the old hat, so he held a grudge.

He didn't care, compared to the prosperity of the city, Li Dingguo focused on observing the barracks here in the imperial capital, approaching winter, the recruit company began to recruit new soldiers, the early training, as a guest and a famous general of this era, Li Dingguo was also invited to visit.

Li Dingguo is also very interested in their army, but he can't see it clearly, so on the one hand, these people have a bit of harsh requirements for soldiers, basically not from good families, and some "good men" who are brave and ruthless at first glance and can go up at any time to fight hard were directly rejected, while those little dolls who were afraid of life were selected.

And the content of the training is also strange, the first lesson not only does not have such an activity as killing a stick, but also will stand there without moving, which is called standing in a military posture.

Of course, he was also secretly frightened by the food that the people in the imperial capital gave to the recruits, it can be said that although it is not as good as the brocade clothes and jade food when he was in Chengdu, but he is a small lieutenant who is above 10,000 people under one person, it can be said that an ordinary recruit here in the imperial capital eats a big white steamed bun, and a steaming meal can kill his petty officers in seconds.

But in the end, he has been leading troops for many years, he knows what this means, which means that the emperor can mobilize more people and transport more weapons and soldiers to the war zone for combat, although there is a suspicion of raising these people from ordinary backgrounds to become young master soldiers, but it is not a big problem, he vaguely understands that these people in the imperial capital do not say anything else, they have money to the point of exploding.

When the wine came up, he didn't ride a horse, but walked back to the hall to rest, Li Dingguo calculated the gains and losses, and suddenly when he passed a wall, he found that there were words on it, which was different from when he saw it during the day.

"If the wife is bound to her feet, the son is small."

This also rhymes, and Li Dingguo laughed when he looked at it.

This foot-binding thing is already a deep-rooted folk custom and perverted aesthetics, and even Li Xiangqian and others can't directly post a list, saying that whoever has a daughter will be killed if she wraps her feet, and even the Manchus themselves can't do this kind of thing, and in the end, a lot of women are bound to their feet, so they can only sacrifice the last weapon, children.

Here, some of them violate genetics, of course, some are also scientific, confusing foot binding with the child's thinness and weakness, if a scholar may still think that it is an honor to be powerless, then the ordinary merchant's family has to mumble, if the child is too weak, will it not be able to support the family?

This is brainwashing in terms of interests, as a fashion, foot binding is considered by the common people of the Ming Dynasty that only noble families can afford it, if you simply say so, it will not work at all.

In fact, the Chinese people have known for a long time that the taller the woman is, the taller the child will be, such as the forbidden army in the Song Dynasty, which was handled in this way, resulting in the forbidden army getting taller and taller.

Of course, Li Dingguo is literate, but these are simplified characters, that is, vulgar characters, and some are not very used to it, of course, many simplified fonts have been popular in the Tang and Song dynasties, and it is naturally easy to understand, but he has the impression that in the morning, the text on it is still, "wash your hands before and after eating".

Anyway, there is something interesting about these people.

Since the imperial capital has been occupied by the elders for more than a year, since gaining a firm foothold, all kinds of engineering construction has not stopped, especially after the spread of various technologies, after the mass production of various building materials, you can see new communities start construction every month, and small buildings are delivered every day.

After all, as a city, the imperial capital is far from saturated, of course, in the future, the imperial capital will not become a place for the population, but a transit station, and they are more inclined to drive people to places like the Americas or Australia.

In the new city residence where Li Dingguo passed, there was a small restaurant in business, and the citizens of the imperial capital already had a preliminary concept of time, at least they knew what time to do, and even at night, those secret video halls would show leaf lintels, and Ye Yuqing's third-level movies knew very well.

A middle-aged man was drinking there, but it was a pot of wine, a plate of broad beans chewed slowly, and after a while he slowly tasted it, and there was no one else.

At this time, the common people are used to it, and they can make some money, and many jobs in the imperial capital are implemented in three shifts, even if it is at night, there are naturally many people who come down from work to eat.

However, the middle-aged man was dressed in a shabby long shirt, but he didn't look like a worker, just drinking the cheap wine one by one.

After a while, two men walked in happily, and before they could enter the door, they had already handed it over: "Man, what about the sorghum wine I stored here earlier, take it out, and then cut a white chicken!" ”

Both of them are short, the dust on their bodies is still there, and there are some putty, at first glance they are workers who have just finished work, but they don't look bad, not like ordinary laborers.

The guy was very attentive, and the two were obviously regular customers, and after greeting for a while, they naturally brought wine and chicken.

"I don't know if I can pass the big exam in a few days, a few months ago, the factory wrote silently, and I could only watch a few of them get rewards, which is really unwilling."

"They are all people in the computer room, they have a lot of contact with elders every day, and they have a lot of free time, of course, literacy is stronger than ours, and at the end of the month, I think we have to work hard to read and write, that's three hundred words of dictation, not a small number."

"For five taels of silver, but you have to fight, this is a month's monthly money."

"Hey, if we have the ability of the ancestor, he has the allowance every month in addition to the month ago, and he has twenty taels without doing anything."

"What do you know, the ancestor is the oldest carpenter in the imperial capital city, and the things that are made can be spliced and removed without nails at all, and they are tightly sealed, the elder said, that is intangible cultural heritage, and the ancestor is to raise it."

"What is the inheritance, but the silver is really being sent, don't forget, there is also that house!"

"But we're not bad, there will always be a chance in the future, don't the elders come to listen to the words every month, whoever knows more words will be proud."

"No, if you look at this, we can already understand it."

"Haha, don't you see it, it's the spring palace painting above, leave it to your daughter-in-law."

The man patted a stack of books next to him, which made the middle-aged caftan very surprised, the short-haired craftsman actually held a book in his hand, which really surprised him, others are middle-aged, and they make a living by copying books for others all the year round, their eyes have long been broken, and they squinted at the past, those words don't seem to be like the Four Books and Five Classics, can this kind of Riba people also read.

Closer, closer, almost on the two men, the worker complained, "Hey, what! ”

He could occasionally see the noble elders, and the approachable appearance of the people was not like the nobles who lived in the palace, so he had developed the habit of being arrogant to everyone, but this middle-aged robe was really not very polite.

Chang Yi immediately stood up and said, "Student Kong Yi is polite, I just want to see what the two of you are reading." ”

"Oh, look."

Although it is strange, it is not difficult for people to be so polite.

The imperial capital is a place where you can eat together with a long shirt and a short fight, as long as you have money, you can come, everyone is used to it, Kong Yiji took your few books, and looked at them with gratitude, there are a few books, there are Shushan Swordsmen, and the Legend of the Condor Heroes, which are very popular books.

Kong Yiji's family is surrounded by walls, in the early years, he also fantasized about exchanging money by writing, how can there be more and more scholars in these years, all kinds of handsome scholars counterattack the rich lady's bridge has long been used up, want to exchange money in a bookseller who called the electricity, but unfortunately the world is in chaos this year, the scholars are useless, there are at least a million people who eat under the bookseller, everyone writes a manuscript every day, and there are dozens of books updated every minute on average, he can only make a living by a subsistence allowance, miserable.

I really can't help it, I heard that there are many opportunities in the imperial capital, so I want to try my luck, but what is lacking in the imperial capital these years, there will be no shortage of a person who can only read four books and five classics, he can't pass the secretary exam, all kinds of radish signs, that is, the recruitment of government civil servants, specially limited age, household registration, household registration, what kind of awards have been won, basically there are only one or two people in the 1.4 billion population who are eligible, and that person is almost a relative of the leader......

Under the shady curtain of such comings and goings, Kong Yiji has already sat on the empty mountain, he can't steal, he can't steal, he can't run fast, the most poignant thing is the civil service exam, Kong Yiji sold his ancestral property, and finally the small house, bought a fake show talent to get into Beijing, compared to the misery of those old show talents who can't get into the exam, an old boy pretending to be a show to take the exam, is even more miserable in the miserable.

It's a pity to see that he has read those four books and five classics all his life, where does he understand the mysteries of the line of measurement, and the miscellaneous study of deuteronomy.

He slowly flipped through these books, and there was indeed a book of the Golden Vase Mei Xiu that the people of the Ming Dynasty liked to see, but it was not strange, he wanted to write a little yellow book, but the person who started the call, obviously started by selling small yellow books, but he was suddenly not allowed to write, if it was before, it would be directly sealed, and even the remaining money would not be given to you.

Suddenly, a book suddenly appeared in front of me, the book was very thin, but the words on it were clearly printed, "The best traitor for thousands of years, from generation to generation."

This seems a little weird, he turned it up curiously, but the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, the more he looked at it, the more he looked at it, China has fallen for a thousand years, and it seems that there are only ......

He suddenly became gloomy and said, "Where did this book come from?" ”

The worker said, "I bought it at the stall." ”

Kong Yiji said angrily: "You dare to do this, don't you know that this is a banned book, and you want to kill your head!" ”

The worker frowned and said, "I don't care what it is, this is a giveaway, I buy ten books, I'll give one away, okay, give me back this book, I have to go back to teach my son to read." ”

Kong Yiji picked up the thousand-year-old best traitor, and from generation to side, he said: "This book slanders the saint, the crime is extremely evil, you keep this book privately, you should also, you should also ......" If he knew the criminal law, he would not be so poor, gritted his teeth, and said: "It should also be distributed for three thousand miles!" ”

The two workers looked at each other and looked at each other, but they were not frightened, after all, they were people who could occasionally see the elders, although they couldn't even say a word when they saw the elders, but after all, they had also seen the world, and immediately shouted: "Where did the poor sour man come from, I want you to talk more!" This is a good book for the right place, can it be wrong? I was wrong about you. ”

Then he snatched the book.

Kong Yiji was bored with himself, people were not afraid of him, he looked at the size of others, he seemed to be incomparable, and it seemed impossible to call the officials to arrest them.

Kong Yiji is a self-drying Kong, the so-called person who brings dry food to cheer for the Kong family, in the same way, such as self-drying Han, that is, shouting that if China perishes, the Koreans will call, am I not a Korean, the Korean Oba can come to play with her woman, or self-financed, but he is clearly a poor dick, but he is shouting to protect the interests of the capitalists.

As for what***, the self-employed landlords, all of them are like this, they can't see the truth of the facts and their own personal class at all, and they have made the descendants of the peasants oppose the land reform and support the landlords, and the descendants of the workers support the buyout and support the original factory director to take the factory for themselves without spending a penny.

This kind of behavior of completely ignoring self-interest, in addition to being brain-dead, is just a self-illusion of identity, thinking that if I draw a clear line with you people, I will naturally accept me, but in fact, it is all an illusion.

Kong Yiji naturally will not be a member of the Kong family, or that he claims to be a member of the Kong family, and no one recognizes it, just as Kong Youde, who was killed by the Council of Elders, is also a member of the Kong clan, but he is also a hardcore traitor, in history, the Kong family and the Yansheng family have done many bad things, but they have been covered up, but it is very simple to find their black material.

Of course, this kind of thing can't come out in the open, but there is always a chance to secretly print it and distribute it directly.
