Chapter 420 Exciting events
It is not the first time for many foreign merchants to come to Kyoto. They did not expect to find that earth-shaking changes have taken place here this time. The streets are clean and tidy, and the people are different. At first, they found that the women who sell vegetables in Kyoto are all When I was able to say a few words about the important affairs of the government, I was surprised.

Until I saw those children selling newspapers around with a newspaper in their hands, and bought a newspaper for a penny, they were shocked when they opened their eyes. Many of the contents on it were beyond their reach. , As a result, you can buy it here for a penny! !
Some of them have heard of the name of the newspaper, and some have seen it, but it is far less shocking to see it when they come to Kyoto. The locals and foreigners introduced it to the merchants, and the merchants who came earlier introduced it to the merchants who came later, and regarded the newspaper as a treasure.

What made them even more excited was that they were about to sit and talk with the adults from the household department, and they were excited just thinking about it.

Out-of-towners and most of the aborigines just want to watch the youth competition this time, but it is different for those who have children at home. They take newspapers and study carefully one by one to see if the children in their families have that item that is suitable. , there is no need to sign up.

A man said excitedly, "Mother, give the child a tael of silver. Even the husband said that the child counts well. Don't worry about whether it works or not. This is an opportunity."

"It's impossible to say that it can get the ranking, it is really a glory of the ancestors."

One tael of registration money is not cheap, but families who can let their children learn six arts are not poor, and it saves those who can read two characters from signing up, increasing the workload of the newspaper.

The most important thing is that the judges published in the newspapers include the previous Shoufu lord who has already retired, the Minister of Rites who also retired, the vocal masters in the palace, etc. They spend a tael of money to let their children meet these bosses up close. People are nice too!!!
Many parents came to the registration office opened by the newspaper that day. It is suitable for any place to hope for the success of a child and a success for a daughter. These parents spend money on their children without any distress.

Time is tight and tasks are heavy. Qian Lei and Qiu Yu, who have just taken office, have experienced the busyness of the newspaper office. When they are busy, they can't even take a sip of water, but they are busy and happy.

A plump couple stood in the crowd. The two shed tears of joy as they watched Qian Lei who was busy in the distance. They didn't believe his son said that he was working in a newspaper, but they didn't expect it to be true.

"Old Qian's ancestral grave is smoking."

From then on, their son is the prince who sees every day, and the high-ranking officials and nobles see each other five times a day, superior to others.

There is no need to beg daddy to tell grandma when there is something at home.

"Prepare some generous gifts for my son's classmates, thanking them for recommending such a good job; and prepare some gifts for my son's newspaper colleagues, hoping that they will take good care of my son in the future."

"Would you like to send a copy to Princess Annan? Thank you, the prince, for your promotion. Oops~~~ I can't do it anymore. All the gifts from my old Qian's family have been delivered to the door of the prince. Now I will go back and burn incense on the ancestral tablet and tell them This is a great joy.”

Wiping tears of excitement, the husband and wife turned around happily. Qian Lei, who was busy, didn't notice it at all, and continued to be busy.

Three days later, on the stage set up by Jingdou Osmanthus Garden for the Dongshu Goods Appreciation Meeting, the signboard of "Kyoto Youth Six Arts Competition" has been hung up.

Parents who signed up brought their children to gather around the stage. Today is the first preliminary round. They have already found the names of their children at the gate of Osmanthus Garden, as well as the date and time of the game.

Today, those who are going to play keep telling their own children, and even if it is not their turn, they will be watched other people's competitions, gain experience, and increase their children's chances of entering the next round.

When the students of the Six Arts Hall dressed in the same style appeared under the leadership of their masters, many children who did not sign up showed envious eyes, which also brought great pressure to those parents.

Moreover, the parents of the students in the Six Arts Hall were all very happy. They had received the news that this event was going to be held early in the morning, and they had prepared well in advance for a few days, so they were one step ahead.

Qin Feng stepped onto the stage, signaled for everyone to be quiet, and said loudly: "The first Six Arts Competition for Youth in Erjing, which is organized by the newspaper office and strongly supported by Shui Mo Zhai and Six Arts Museum, is officially held today. They can all play their own abilities, show their demeanor, and show their level."

"First of all, please allow me to introduce our judges. They are the previous chief assistant Mr. Wang..."

The spirited Mr. Wang took the stage, and the people below almost knelt down. Wow, Shoufu, although he is the previous one, he is also an incredible person. Under the leadership of Qin Feng, there was thunderous applause.

"Second place, the previous Minister of Rites, Mr. Qin."

The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar, and the applause continued. The people in the back row could not hear clearly, but their palms were still red.

"The third place, Mr. Cao, a master of Qin art in Kyoto"

There was constant applause at the scene, even those people in the back couldn't hear what Qin Feng said at all, but they would give even warmer applause to everyone on the stage.

The wealthy businessmen who came to see the excitement were very tongue-tied, and understood the truth contained in the words "at the feet of the emperor".

They are also children, some people are excited when they see a county magistrate, but some people can easily meet the high officials of the court. These children compete on stage in such a scene at a young age, and they will be much more calm when they go to the examination room. If you are lucky enough to enter the court, it will be smoother.

Some people are even thinking about whether they want to send the children of the clan to the capital, not to mention anything else, the content published in each issue of the newspaper is enough for them to benefit endlessly.

Qin Feng continued, "Master Wang, please send a message to the participating children!!"

Mr. Wang hadn't seen the excitement in front of him for a long time since he became an official, and suddenly he seemed to have returned to his high-spirited era. His back was straight and his arms were raised slightly, and the people below became quiet.

"The young generation is always the hope of the country."

As soon as this sentence came out, the people below were all excited. Qiu Yu took a notebook and a pen and brushed aside the records. These were all to be refined and published on the next issue of white paper.

Mr. Wang sent blessings to the contestants, and finally said: "No matter what the result is, I hope you will not be proud of the victory or discouraged. Continue to study hard, and one day you will shine brightly."

Once again there was thunderous applause at the scene, and when the judges left the stage, Qin Feng officially announced the start of the competition, "Today's first match, it counts, please invite the little prodigy to come on stage~"

In this situation, parents are always more nervous than children. Watching their children on the stage, many parents clutch their clothes tightly and find it difficult to breathe.

 That's all for today, thank you for your support, happy July! !
