Chapter 593 Find a Painter

The three of Zhao Yun continued to move forward, and Zhao Yun told Dongfang Hong not to have any more tempers along the way.

Dongfang Hong blushed and agreed.

A few days later, they finally arrived at Sijiu City. The place where the child prodigy lives is called Tianyi Village.

They soon came to the village, and they immediately inquired about the prodigy.

Someone told them that the child prodigy was called Xu Dong and he often recited poems to everyone outside the village.

But the villagers are illiterate and don't know the content of the child's poems, but they all know that it must be good.

Zhao Yun suspected in his heart that maybe it was just casual worship by the common people.

They finally found Xu Dong.

He recited his poems to others under a willow tree.

Many people gathered around a small child and listened.

Wenxuan was actually willing to come here, partly because of curiosity, and partly because he wanted to know if this child had traveled through time.

She also understood that it was impossible for so many people to travel here. But still a little curious.

Zhao Yun and three others dismounted. Zhao Yun doesn't understand writing, and he doesn't know what is good or bad. Just accompanying.

Some villagers were filled with emotion when they saw Zhao Yun and the three of them. It turns out that people from other places also come here because of their reputation.

Wenxuan and Dongfanghong listened carefully and found that Xu Dong was indeed very talented.

Wenxuan felt that he might not have traveled through time. Maybe he is a genius.

Just then, the same member of staff from last time came again.

"Kid, have you told your grandpa?"

Xu Dong nodded.

"As I said, grandpa said that if you can make money, it would be good to supplement your family's income."

The staff was overjoyed.

"In that case, then follow me."

Everyone thought that if the children followed the officials, it would be impossible for them to continue to listen to the children's poems in the future.

But it is also a good thing that children have a good home.

Xu Dong said: "My grandpa will be here soon, and I want him to watch me leave."

"This is what it should be." The officer smiled, thinking that the child was doing the right thing.

Xu Dong told everyone that in this case, let’s come here first. I am also a little tired today.

Someone just left.

Zhao Yun asked Wenxuan in a low voice.

"Next, are we leaving?"

He doesn't understand what Wenxuan means now. Is he going to take this child back?

Or is it as simple as just taking a look?

Wenxuan said: "I want to contact the member outside."

Afterwards, Wenxuan came to the member's office and handed over his hand.

The members also saluted immediately.

"Hello, Yuanwai, the three of us are from Youzhou and came here because of the reputation of the little prodigy."

"I see."

"So, we want to get in touch with more prodigies."

The member of staff immediately understood what she meant.

"In this case, the girl and others can come to my house as guests."

Wenxuan immediately greeted Xu Dong.

Wenxuan said that he had heard his name in Youzhou and felt very honored to come to see him this time.

Xu Dong also responded very politely and modestly, saying that there was no need for them to go such a long way and that he was just wasting his reputation.

Wenxuan saw that his answer was so polite and he really didn't want to believe that these words came from the mouth of a child.

After a while, an old man arrived, who was Xu Dong's grandfather.

"Grandpa, that foreigner is here again. Didn't you promise me? So should I go with him?"

The old man then greeted the officer.

The members of the staff saluted him respectfully.

After all, he was looking up to his grandson, so it was appropriate to salute him.

"Commissioner, since you think highly of my grandson, I will leave my grandson to you from now on."

"Don't worry, I treat him well, that's why I think my own son is so good."

The old man said that he still wanted to say a few words to his grandson alone, and after that, he would follow the officer.

The member smiled and said, "This is what it should be."

So, the old man pulled Xu Dong to a corner.

"Grandson, we have been playing a long game to catch the big fish, and finally we managed to get you into Yuanwai's home."

It turned out that this was a conspiracy between the old man and Xudong.

The old man had long heard that a member of the Communist Party of China wanted to find someone to teach his child, and the child was quite naughty. He hired many teachers, but they all left with a flick of their sleeves.

And his grandson is indeed talented, so his purpose here is to attract other members.

And the fact is just as the old man thought.

I didn't expect everything to go so smoothly.

Xu Dong said: "Grandpa, don't worry, I will try my best to complete the things you tell me."

"Yes, you must find it."

"In this case, you must proceed with caution. Don't let the other party discover you."

Xu Dong said he knew what was going on.

Moreover, when you arrive at Yuan Wai's home, you will definitely be treated as a guest, so you don't have to worry that Yuan Wai will treat you badly.

"Okay grandson, no matter what, just be careful about everything."

After explaining a few words, the old man led Xu Dong to the front of the officer.

"Okay, everyone, I won't say much more about the rest. I'll just let my grandson follow you."

Some people present were thinking that it would be better to have Taihua, so that they can make money at a young age.

After that, the member of staff looked at Wenxuan and the others.

"In that case, then come home with me."

Wenxuan nodded, and the three of them followed behind with their horses.

Zhao Yun asked Wenxuan in a low voice: "Are we going to stay for how many more days?"

"We'll see what happens then."

Zhao Yun didn't say anything.

Of course he knew that Wenxuan was Xi Yu's good friend. Since the prime minister asked him to come, he had no choice but to obey.

Although Xi Yu didn't say it explicitly, he knew that he had to listen to Wenxuan on this trip.

But along the way, he heard Wenxuan and Dongfanghong say some very strange things.

There were some vocabulary and words that he had never heard of before.

He didn't know where the two people got so many languages.

Unknowingly, we have arrived at the manor where the members live.

The manor is particularly grand and large.

There are two stone lions at the door.

When I first entered the door, I saw a bamboo forest, which seemed particularly quiet.

After the three people brought the horse in, the officer said, "Just put the horse to the east. There will be someone there to feed you."

After that, he said hello and asked the boy to come over and feed the horse.

Afterwards, the officer led them into the hall, and finally asked Wenxuan and the three of them to sit down first.

He wanted Xu Dong to see his son and come out to see them later.

Wenxuan said: "Excuse me, please."

In an instant, Wenxuan was the only three people left in the hall.

Dongfanghong said to Wenxuan: "Now that we have met him, we should also confirm that he is not from our era. Should we go?"

Although Wenxuan did not communicate with him, he could know Wenxuan's purpose.

Wenxuan rolled his eyes at him, as if to say, why don't you be so smart?

"Everything is in accordance with my ideas. If you are not happy, just leave." Wenxuan rolled his eyes at Dongfang Hong.

Dongfanghong felt aggrieved, but sighed and said nothing more.

Zhao Yun thought to himself, Dongfanghong must not lose his temper again.

As a military commander, I now have to listen to Wenxuan.

If Dongfang Hong lost his temper and had to persuade him, he would feel too wronged.

On the other side, Xi Yu heard Su Yu's report. It is said that they are now quite proficient in printing books.

If there are no special surprises, the newspaper will be published in a few days.

But Xi Yu told him that newspapers include news, that is, news, and some other articles.

"In addition, you need to rely on Sun Zhaomeng for technical aspects, but you are the editor-in-chief of the entire newspaper, so I must listen to you."

Xi Yu suddenly remembered that he had not given the newspaper a name yet.

But it is certainly inappropriate to run a daily newspaper in this day and age.

That's exhausting.

Moreover, this newspaper has to be delivered to other places. If it is a daily newspaper, it obviously does not meet the requirements.

An ancient transport was slow after all. If you run a daily newspaper, by the time it reaches others, it may have been several months.

So Xiyu plans to do it once a week.

"Name the newspaper, let's call it Youzhou Weekly. Tentatively, it will be once every week. What do you think?"

"Prime Minister, your arrangement is very appropriate. But I have another suggestion. I don't know whether I should talk about it or not."

"Of course. If you have anything to say, it doesn't matter. It just has to be beneficial to the newspaper."

"I think our newspapers should be rich in pictures and text. If there are only dry words, it may not be attractive."

Xi Yu's eyes lit up. Being able to think of this question showed that Su Yu was really an understanding person.

This is also a very simple question, but I didn't think of it.

Xiyu laughed.

"It seems that I have a good vision. I didn't choose the wrong person. You are really thoughtful."

After receiving Xi Yu's praise, Su Yu felt very happy.

"In that case, should we go find a painter?"

Xi Yu nodded and told Su Yu about the matter and asked him to do it freely.

Su Yu said that once he finds a painter, he will draw some scenery and people.

According to Xi Yu's instructions, he now understands.

A newspaper has several pages, the first of which is called the front page.

The headlines on the front page should generally tell the news about Xi Yu.

In addition, for example, if there is news about fields, there must also be pictures of fields.

At this moment, Xiyu is full of meaning. I'm imagining the scene that will happen once newspapers come out.

Then he suddenly began to reflect again, what is the original intention of running a newspaper?

Is he doing it to promote himself? Maybe that’s what it means.

No matter what he said, he did want to make a contribution to culture.

Xi Yu suddenly realized that he had not paid attention to road construction for a long time.

He decided to go and inspect it, and now he found that as long as he stopped caring about Jia Xu's affairs, he could free his hands and feet to do other things.

As for Jia Xu's matter, there is less discussion among the people now.

Many times things are like this.

It's usually just a gust of wind. Once this gust of wind dissipates, there will be nothing left.

Xi Yu specially designated a place for Su Yu to use for publishing newspapers.

This is a very clean courtyard, and it is usually very quiet.

At this moment, Sun Zhaomeng was still concentrating on the rubbing work.

Su Yu didn't bother him either.

It wasn't until Sun Zhaomeng stopped after a while that he realized that Su Yu was back.

Su Yu said to Sun Zhaomeng seriously: "The Prime Minister said that you will be the authority in terms of technology from now on, and I have to listen to you. But in terms of running a newspaper, you have to listen to me."

Sun Zhaomeng smiled and nodded, and replied: "Haha, no problem, let's do it!"

Then, Su Yu said excitedly: "Now I'm going to hire a painter, because the newspaper will need them in the next step."

On the other side, Fang paced anxiously back and forth at the door, looking into the distance from time to time, mumbling to himself.

"Why hasn't Wen Liang come yet?" Her face was full of worry and uneasiness.

The sister-in-law next door sat aside and gently comforted Mrs. Fang.

"Sister, don't worry, Wen Liang may have been delayed by something."

However, Fang's tears could not stop flowing down like floods bursting from a dam.

"I'm so worried about that fool. If I hit him, will he not wake up..."

Her body was also trembling slightly.

At this moment, a faint sound came from the house. Mrs. Fang and her neighbor's sister-in-law looked at each other and rushed into the house. I saw Jia Xu slowly opening his eyes, still a little confused.

Fang looked at Jia Xu, who was still stupid, and the nervous look on her face relaxed a little. She patted her chest and murmured to herself: "It's okay, it's okay..."

The sister-in-law next door looked on and comforted softly: "Sister, you can rest assured now, at least Jia Xu is still alive." Fang nodded, a look of relief flashed in her eyes.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Mrs. Fang and her neighbor's sister-in-law looked at each other with doubtful expressions.

The door was pushed open, and Wen Liang and Song Shuwen walked in.

Wen Liang had a trace of anxiety on his face, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked, "How are you doing?"

Fang quickly replied: "Husband, you are finally back. He is still looking stupid, but he finally woke up."

Wen Liang frowned, looked at Jia Xu, then at Fang, and said in a reproachful tone: "How could it be like this?"

Fang's eyes flashed with a hint of guilt, and she lowered her head, not daring to look into Wen Liang's eyes.

Wen Liang pointed at Song Shuwen and said with a bit of respect and expectation in his tone: "This is the miracle doctor. Please ask the miracle doctor to take a look at Jia Xu's condition."

Song Shuwen looked at Jia Xu in front of him, frowning slightly and observing carefully.

After a while, he shook his head and said seriously: "The situation is extremely complicated."

Fang and the sister-in-law next door suddenly became excited again and looked at Song Shuwen nervously.

Then, Song Shuwen turned around and said, "I need to collect medicine before I can proceed with the next step of treatment."

Wen Liang quickly asked: "Can this situation be cured?" His eyes were full of concern and expectation.

Song Shuwen thought for a moment and said slowly: "Absolutely."

After hearing this, Wen Liang immediately showed a happy smile on his face.

Wen Liang smiled and said: "Let me go with you to collect medicine, and I can also protect you."

Song Shuwen smiled, nodded, and replied, "That's my trouble."

Then, Wen Liang turned to his neighbor's sister-in-law and Mr. Fang and said, "You guys wait at home, we will be back soon."

Then, Wen Liang and Song Shuwen walked out of the village together.

When they reached the entrance of the village, Wen Liang suddenly heard a group of people discussing something not far away.

He looked curiously and saw several old women sitting under a tree.

I heard one of the old women say: "Wen Liang, although he likes to drink, he is very warm-hearted."

The other old women nodded in agreement.

When Wen Liang heard this, a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face, and his heart was filled with joy and satisfaction.

On this day, Su Yu excitedly found a young painter named Man Dalong.

He took Man Dalong to see Xi Yu.

After meeting Xi Yu, he excitedly introduced to Xi Yu: "Prime Minister, this is Man Dalong, and his painting skills are quite outstanding!"

Xiyu looked Man Dalong up and down, nodded slightly, and then said calmly: "Then let's experiment and draw a picture for me."

Man Dalong smiled and agreed: "Okay, Prime Minister, please wait a moment."

He began to paint seriously.

After a while, Man Dalong handed the completed portrait to Xi Yu.

Xi Yu took the portrait and looked at it carefully, a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face.

He couldn't help but admired: "Wow, this is so realistic!" Xi Yu's eyes flashed with admiration.

Xi Yu looked at the portrait with satisfaction and praised Man Dalong: "Man Dalong, your painting skills are really amazing!"

Then, Xi Yu turned to look at Su Yu and said with a smile: "Su Yu, the person you found is really good."

Su Yu listened with a proud smile on his face.

Xi Yu said to Man Dalong and Su Yu: "From now on, you can run the newspaper together, and I can feel more at ease."

Man Dalong and Su Yu looked at each other and answered confidently.

"Prime Minister, don't worry, we will definitely finish the newspaper!"

Xi Yu said calmly: "You go back first."

The two looked at each other, bowed respectfully, and then slowly retreated.

County Magistrate Wang Liang frowned, his eyes never leaving Jia Xu's matter.

As if trying to find some clues from it.

Several government servants on the side saw this and advised each other: "Sir, the Prime Minister doesn't care about it anymore, why do you still pay attention to this matter?"

Wang Liang turned his head suddenly, with a dissatisfied look on his face, and said, "This matter is of great importance, how can we give up so easily!" There was a bit of majesty in his voice, which made the government officials speechless for a moment.

After a while, several government officials packed up their equipment and prepared to go out to do errands.

A government official couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.

"Your Majesty the County Magistrate is so honest." There was a look of helplessness on his face, as if he was helpless about Wang Liang's persistence.

Another government official quickly pulled his sleeve, looked around nervously, and said in a low voice: "Shh, it's better not to talk casually. It would be bad if the county magistrate hears it."

Wang Liang sat quietly in the room, frowning slightly, lost in thought. He thought over and over in his mind what the government officials said.

"Am I really too real?" He asked himself secretly.
