"My lord." After Xi Zhicai finished introducing them, the six men knelt down on one knee before Wang Han and said, "We are willing to serve you like dogs and horses."
"Get up, Zhang Shan, Li Si." Wang Han nodded, beckoned Zhang Shan and Li Si to him, and instructed the six of them: "From now on, the six of you will follow Zhang Shan and Li Si."
"Yes, my lord." The six nodded and stood behind Zhang Shan and Li Si.
Seeing that Wang Han had arranged for six military officers, Xi Zhicai then introduced the remaining two to Wang Han.
Xi Zhicai first explained the middle-aged man to Wang Han, saying, "My lord, this is Huang Chengyan, a famous scholar from Jingzhou."
Huang Chengyan bowed to Wang Han and said, "Huang Chengyan is willing to serve my lord with utmost loyalty."
Wang Hanxu helped Huang Chengyan up and said, "I have long admired the name of Huang Chengyan, a famous scholar from Jingzhou. I will need your help in the future."
“My lord,” Xi Zhicai introduced to another woman with blond hair and dark skin, “this is Huang Chengyan’s daughter, Huang Yueying, who is also a woman of great talent.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Han looked at Huang Yueying. Huang Yueying's appearance was actually not bad. Although she did have yellow hair and dark skin, she wasn't as dark as one might imagine.

Perhaps it was a bit strange for people of this era who had never seen foreigners. However, for those who had seen all sorts of bizarre body modifications in modern times, she was just a little tanned and had dyed her hair. She didn't even look like a foreigner.
"Xi Zhicai, Huang Chengyan, Huang Yueying." After Xi Zhicai finished introducing them, Wang Han said, "Come with me first, I have something I need you to do."
"Yes, my lord." Upon hearing this, the three followed Wang Han into the house, while Zhang Shan and Li Si became acquainted with the six newcomers.
Upon entering the room, Wang Han got straight to the point: "I need you to publish a book."
"Publish a book?" Upon hearing this, the three looked at each other, and Xi Zhicai asked, "My lord, what kind of book do you want us to publish?"
“A literacy book,” Wang Han said. “A book that can be popularized among all people, a book that progresses from simple to difficult, a book that is easy to learn and easy to use, and this is only the first book.”
