Chapter 573 Stove
“Every article in this newspaper is amazing.”
“It’s so well written.”
"And this one is an interview, it's so inspiring. After reading it, I'm determined to study hard. As long as you work hard, you will reap rewards."
"The key is that there are hundreds of these newspapers at once. The paper in Hezhou is really cheap. But I heard that our emperor also built a workshop in the imperial farm and is said to be making paper."
"This is controlled by the emperor, and the court officials cannot interfere."
"Some court officials are still trying to make some money, but the emperor has the secret of papermaking and will not let it go."
"Guess who made these newspapers and papers?"
"Who is it?"
"It's Madam Su, Mr. Shen, who founded the milk tea shop."
Shangguan Kang and Cha Maocai were also reading in the milk tea shop.
The two of them met because of Shen Yueyao and now they have a good relationship.
The two of them often come to the milk tea shop in the village at the foot of the mountain to read books, drink milk tea and eat snacks.
This will make them feel that Shen Yueyao is still here.
Shangguan Kang regarded Shen Yueyao as his sister from the bottom of his heart.
Cha Maocai regards Shen Dongjia as his benefactor.
Now Cha Maocai can speak normally, and his seniors and classmates in the academy are very nice to him. He gradually feels the warm atmosphere of the academy and likes studying more.
Over time, my heart was healed, my personality became more cheerful, and I was willing to talk.
Unlike before, he kept his head down and remained silent, not daring to say a word.
Shangguan Kang is now in good health. He can jump and sleep well.
You can eat anything, there are no more dietary restrictions.
Even his father Shangguan Bin was very excited and often kept talking about thanking Miss Shen.
Now their senior brothers in the academy have memorized the pinyin alphabet and can use it.
Some senior brothers who graduated from the academy did not want to become officials, so they returned to their hometown to become private school teachers.
Some are still in academies, specializing in annotating books with pinyin, so that students who have just learned pinyin can read by themselves.
Shangguan Kang said: "I knew Sister Shen was amazing. After going to Hezhou, she made cheap paper. I can save a lot of money on studying in the future."
Although Shangguan Kang had a heart disease before, he was not completely ignorant.
He knew that some of his senior brothers in the academy came from poor families and were reluctant to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones for their studies.
Paper in particular is really expensive, but even though it is expensive, it is needed for writing articles.
But now it’s better. Although some papers in Beijing are still very expensive, some papers are much cheaper.
Everyone is grateful to the person who invented paper.
"Mr. Shen is really amazing."
The person Cha Maocai admires most is Shen Dongjia, and the person he is most grateful to is also Shen Dongjia.
"Of course, Sister Shen knows a lot of things."
“Other people may not be able to govern Hezhou if they go there, but Sister Shen will definitely be able to govern Hezhou well, and of course this is also due to the contribution of Lord Su.”
As if thinking of something, Shangguan Kang said, "I also heard that a lot of delicious food suddenly appeared in Hezhou. I heard that there are a lot of shops at the dock."
“It’s all delicious, and it’s very beautiful over there.”
"There are many things that the capital doesn't have. Besides, it's very cold here in the winter and it snows, but it rarely snows in Hezhou. Their winters are not as cold as ours. I heard that the river doesn't even freeze."
Due to health reasons, Shangguan Kang has never traveled far since he was a child.
He actually wanted to go to Hezhou to take a look.
His heart disease has healed now, so he thought that if he wanted to travel far away to see the world, his father would agree.
Cha Maocai also wanted to go and take a look.
But he knew that he could not be willful. He had finally found a really good academy to study in, and he should spend all his time on studying.
He also carries the hopes of his family on his shoulders.
So he has to study hard, and only after he passes the imperial examination will he have the opportunity to go out and see the world.
Shangguan Kang doesn't have to worry about so many things.
His father thinks that as long as he is in good health and happy, that's enough.
He found that since his heart disease was cured, his father also had a smile on his face.
He didn't understand his father before, but now he probably does.
Or maybe it was because of meeting Sister Shen that his mentality changed.
At this time, someone in the milk tea shop said, "It's snowing outside."
"Is it snowing?"
A guest came into the house, brushed the snow off his hair and said, "Yes, it's really snowing outside."
"There was no snow on the way here, but it started snowing when we arrived at the village gate."
"It's still warm in our milk tea shop. We even have a stove."
"The stove in our store is really special, different from the charcoal brazier at home."
"Yes, the stove is still warm. Sitting next to the stove and warming yourself by the fire, you won't feel cold at all."
"This furnace was developed by Mr. Shen. Now noble families all hire craftsmen to make furnaces like this."
"Not to mention others, even my family has a stove like this one that burns charcoal. In the middle of winter, it's quite cozy to sit by the fire and make tea around it."
"Yes, but we still like it here. It's quiet, warm and lively."
Everyone likes the atmosphere of this milk tea shop in Zhuangzi.
Many people came here from the inner city by horse-drawn carriage.
And you don’t have to worry about not being able to get back home when it’s too late.
Because there is a special inn here in Zhuangzi.
This inn is different from other inns. It has all the necessary facilities and is very clean.
The mattress and pillows are super comfortable.
And the food at the inn is also very good.
You can eat in the restaurant or the canteen of the inn, or you can ask the waiter to deliver the food to your room, which is very convenient.
And the inn is not expensive.
So many people come to Zhuangzi to play when they have nothing to do.
Sometimes it’s nice to book a private room and chat with friends.
Many people came in and gathered around the stove to warm themselves by the fire.
Next to the stove is a large sofa cushion where everyone can sit and chat.
However, the cafe environment is relatively quiet.
Everyone spoke quietly, trying not to disturb others.
"Boss Shen is truly amazing. Only she can come up with something this rare."
"I asked my parents to make a heated kang before, but they didn't believe me. Then my mother went to Madam Liu's house and found that the heated kang Madam Liu had made was really warm. My mother wanted to take advantage of this time to make a heated kang, but it takes a long time to dry out in such a cold weather."
"So we should take advantage of the warm weather and use the heated kang."
"Now we finally understand why people in the north use heated kangs, which keep them warm. They're really warm."
"My feet were frozen in the carriage just now. It would be better to warm them up by the stove."
"This stove is really good. Look, the smoke from burning charcoal doesn't even come into the house. The room is very clean."
"That's right. I used to choke when I burned charcoal in the house."
“After a long time, it feels stuffy, but using a stove is different.”
"Every household is busy getting a stove installed now."
Yes, nowadays, even the rich and powerful are busy setting up stoves.
So now the blacksmiths and craftsmen in the capital are very busy.
