Liang Ping'an and Tu Fugui quickly pulled the pulley with four little hands, and the iron chains rustled, and the heavy stone tablet was slowly pulled up and hung in the air. Please search and read the most complete novel! Several strong men carefully held the stone tablet, pushed it to the digging pit, and put it down.

The workers next to him couldn't help but exclaim when they saw this scene, and they whispered. The stone tablet was one meter high, four meter wide, and one foot and five inches thick. If they were lifted by people, they would not be able to lift it at all without seven or eight. But now, the two children pulled the iron chain and hung the stone tablet up, which was incredibly relaxed.

"This iron gourd is really useful."

"That's right, it's impossible to believe that two children can pull up such a heavy stone tablet."

"This is a good thing." A white-bearded man shook his head repeatedly. "It's the first time I have seen this magical thing after I have lived. If I had known it earlier, my back wouldn't have been like this."

"Haha, father-in-law, you can only blame you for giving birth too early and Liang Junhou was born too late. Otherwise, with the kindness of the Lord, he would not bear to see your waist bent even more than his bow."

Everyone was too laughing, and their eyes showed joy. They were all hardworking. They usually encountered heavy work, and there was no other way, so they could only carry it on their backs. When they were young, they could still rely on their health to support themselves. When they were old, they could not help but feel a little overwhelmed. Now that they saw this magical iron gourd, they naturally couldn't let go and tried their hand.

When the stone tablet arrived in the pit, the men straightened the stone tablet, pulled out the rope, and began to fill the soil.

Seeing that the task was completed, Liang Ping'an was so happy that he took Tu Fugui, turned around and ran towards Liang Xiao and Liu Ling. "Aweng, Aweng, am I awesome?"

"Awesome, amazing. My daughter is the most powerful." Liang Xiao bent down and picked up her daughter and threw it in the air. Liang Ping'an spread her arms and spread her wings like a happy bird. When Liu Ling saw it, he smiled and said, "Okay. OK, leave some gifts." She touched Tu Fugui's little head again. "Thank you for your hard work, go find what your aunt wants to eat."

"Okay." Tu Fugui grinned and laughed, but did not leave. He raised his head and waited for Xiao Ping'an. He looked at Tu Huaer from time to time. Until Xiao Ping'an had enough flights and got off the ground, the two of them ran towards Tu Huaer together.

"With this pulley set, it will be much more convenient to load and unload goods in the future." Liu Ling said happily: "I want to send a few sets of Wu as soon as possible, and he will definitely be able to use it in Yizhou."

Liang Xiao smiled. "Don't think about Yizhou first, load it on the ship first."

"That's right, it's worth it on the boat." Liu Ling nodded repeatedly. She looked at the craftsmen who were talking around the pulley, pulled Liang Xiao's sleeves, and smiled and said, "You are going to become famous now."

"I have become famous for a long time." Liang Xiao glanced at Liu Ling with a gloomy face. "When I married you, I became famous all over the world. A poor boy was granted a marquis for his military merits. He got married to the emperor and married the famous Huainan Master. Isn't it famous enough?"

Liu Ling giggled. "Can you change your tricks by saying clever words? "

"There is no need to be many tricks, just enough." Liang Xiao hugged his chest, held his cheek, and pondered for a moment. "I'm going to name this pulley set Ping An Wheel. What do you think?"

Liu Ling's eyes flashed, and he seemed to be smiling. "Are you too spoiled with your eldest daughter? Are you not afraid that your children can't stand it?"

"When a big mother like you disciplines, my daughter can bear the blessings she has. The reason why she is called the Peace Wheel has nothing to do with her, she just wants peace. Then again, my mother married her name Ping An and prayed for me. Now, I want this name to pray for all of us, hoping to achieve our wishes."

"That's true." Liu Ling nodded and agreed.

After a while, the stone tablet was erected and landed properly. The white-bearded old man wiped the mud on it with his sleeves, and carefully checked it carefully. Then he took off the puff bags that were covered on it, revealing the engraved article, which was the article "White Deer Fu" written by Yan An. The white marble shone in the sun, and the gold-filled handwriting was neat and elegant, and the gold and jade contrasted with each other, shining brightly.

The craftsmen surrounded the stone tablet and praised it endlessly. They were almost illiterate, but they could feel the momentum of the tablet. After discussing, the white-bearded old man carefully sorted out his clothes, walked to Liang Xiao and his wife, and bowed to salute.

"Mr. Marquis, Madam."

Liang Xiao and his wife quickly returned the greeting. Liang Xiao stepped forward and stroked the old man. "If you have any advice, please speak out."

"June, we have no knowledge, we are all untouchables who work for others. We live a life of just one's strength. Today, we really like this magical object. The old man was entrusted by them and wanted to ask June and his wife to be kind and let us copy a few of them."

Liang Xiao smiled. "Brother-in-law, why is this difficult? You can copy any number of pieces you want. If you don't understand, you can ask. Although this safety wheel is simple, it cannot be used for workmanship. Otherwise, not only will the labor saving be limited, but there may also be safety accidents."

When the old man heard this, he was filled with joy and saluted repeatedly.

Liu Ling waved, and Tu Huaer came over with a few servants, carrying a basket of Hu cakes and mung bean soup. The Hu cakes were sprinkled with a layer of sesame seeds, baked golden, and the smell could be smelled from a distance. Tu Huaer greeted the craftsmen, and each of them filled a bowl of cool mung bean soup and two Hu cakes. The craftsmen were overjoyed and thanked them repeatedly.

Sesame seeds were the seeds brought back by Liang Xiao from the Western Regions. They were just planted in the vegetable field. They were considered rare things. These craftsmen had never seen them before and dared not waste them. Many people dipped their fingers into their mouths and licked them with their tongues. They tasted them carefully like eating some delicacies. Even those that fell on the ground were picked up, blowing away the dust, and delivering them to their mouths one by one.

The white-bearded old man bite two bites of the cake and stopped eating it. He took out a piece of cloth and wrapped it up.

"Old man, why don't you eat anymore? Isn't it delicious?" Xiao Ping'an raised his head and looked at the old man in confusion.

"It's delicious, delicious." The old man said repeatedly: "Such delicious food is also given by noble people. I can't bear to eat it alone, so I will take it back for my grandson to try it."

"That's right." Xiao Ping'an bit his finger and thought about it. He picked up the cake that he had just eaten two bites, broke off the bite, and handed the remaining half to the old man. "Then you eat my cake."

The old man panicked and shook his hand repeatedly. "I dare not take it, I dare not take it. I have been given food by the king and wife. How dare I take it as a little noble person again? The old man dare not take it."

"It's okay." Xiao Ping'an stuffed the cake into the old man's hand. "I'll just go to Aunt Huaer again."

The old man held the cake, and it was not right, it was not right. Liang Xiao smiled when he saw it. "Brother-in-law, you don't have to be polite. It's not a big deal. By the way, how old is your grandson?"

"Reply to Junhou, I am about the same age as the little noble man, and I am eight years old this year."

"Have you ever read?"

The old man laughed. "June is joking, we are a pariah. It's good to have a living, and there's no money to study. Besides, even if we can make up the money, there's no teacher to teach you." He raised his head, looked at Bailu Academy not far away, and sighed: "Reading is not something that young people like us, the poor, dare to think about."

"What's the point of thinking about this? If you believe me, you will send your child tomorrow and let me take a look. If it is a teaching material, I will let him study in the academy. How about it? However, I can say that before, I, Bailu Academy, teaches reading, writing, and the way to make a living, but I don't teach the knowledge of being an official. If you want to be an official, don't make that effort."

"Be an official?" The old man laughed silently, as if he heard some joke. "We untouchables, it would be good to have a meal, so how dare you expect to be an official? This... Junhou, this Bailu Academy also accepts children from poor families?"

"Of course."

"Then...shu...shu..." The old man thought for a long time, but couldn't say what he wanted to say. Liang Xiao smiled. "Are you trying to ask Shu Xiu?"

"Yes, yes." The old man patted his head embarrassedly. "I heard that scholars have to give their husbands a bunch of bushes... a bunch of bushes. I wonder how many bunchs of bushes this Bailu Academy will collect?"

"The first three years are free. After three years, the labor costs are used."

"Free?" The old man was stunned, his eyes wide open.

"Yes, it's not only free, but also food and accommodation. There are such cakes to eat every day." Liu Ling walked over and followed Liang Xiao's words. "There are bonuses when you have learned well. If you want to stay in the academy in the future, you can also get a salary."

“For… why?”

"It's nothing. My husband and I have nothing to do. We are looking for a few smart kids to teach you and be with the children."

The old man's voice trembled. "Then... how many people do you take?"

Liu Ling turned around and looked at Liang Xiao, and smiled and said, "It can't be too many. It's almost the same as there are twenty or thirty people."

The old man was so happy that he didn't care about being rude, so he turned around and called his colleagues over. He heard that Bailu Academy wanted to collect students, not only did not charge tuition, but also included food and accommodation. These craftsmen were ecstatic and rushed over to ask for an interview, either to give their children or to their relatives' children. Later, he heard that they not only accepted boys but also girls, and someone immediately signed up for their daughter.

For them, not to mention that Liang Xiao was a disciple of the academy, they would be willing to buy slaves even if they were buying slaves. Liang Xiao became famous when he was young, and Liu Ling was a noble family and treated people kindly. When he was such a family, he was better at being a slave than working in a farmland. Not to mention anything else, you can tell from the few Yue women who dressed neatly that Liang Xiao and his wife were definitely not unkind people who treated their subordinates harshly.

Faced with the craftsmen's request, Liang Xiao agreed one by one and asked them to send their children for an interview as soon as possible.

He did this intentionally. The academy was built, the signboard was hung, and the monument was erected, and the scale was always formed as soon as possible. People with good family backgrounds and a way out all want to go for the career path, and may not be willing to come to Bailu Academy, which is not intended for the career path. These children of craftsmen from poor and humble backgrounds would not care so much. If they had a bite and could read a few words, they would not be able to ask for it.

The career of the officialdom has nothing to do with them. Although the emperor recruited talents and had broken the monopoly of the children of aristocratic families over the career of the officialdom, the kindness has not yet affected these people at the bottom. Their children have to wait for the opportunity to study, at least a hundred years.

Liang Xiao couldn't wait for a hundred years. He wanted to use the children of aristocratic families and could not let them continue to monopolize knowledge, so he had to find other strategies. Recruiting children of the people to learn the art of craftsmen is the best way to go. The career path is too slim for them, but learning a skill is enough to make a living. If he can absorb a group of followers from it and take them to Yizhou, the construction progress of Yizhou will also be accelerated.

Even if he doesn't need to go that step, with these students he has been trained since childhood, he will not fight alone.

Yan An stopped for a long time when he passed by Chang'an. He was originally going to go to the palace to chat with Dong Zhongshu, but when he arrived at Shiqu Pavilion, he learned that Dong Zhongshu was going to attend the academic salon held by Princess Guantao in Changmen Garden.

Yan An was very curious and did not care about the fatigue of the boat and the car rushed to Changmen Garden immediately. When he arrived outside the Changmen Garden, he was shocked when he saw the carriage and horses that almost blocked the door.

He was a close minister around the emperor, so he naturally knew what political meaning was behind Princess Guantao’s academic salon. When the emperor used Cao and Wei Qing to go to Hexi, Princess Guantao held such a grand gathering, naturally he would not be idle or just wanted to be a sensible person and support academics. It would be fine if he didn’t know. Since he knew, he could not ask for it, so as to ask for the emperor’s inquiry.

Yan An found out the theme of this salon without much slap: on the gains and losses of Qin's government.

Although he didn't know what the topic was prepared, Yan An immediately became concerned. Discussions on the gains and losses of Qin's government have always been a hot topic in the academic world. Since the day the Han Dynasty was established, this issue has attracted countless talented people and can no longer say anything new. However, Dong Zhongshu returned from Ganquan Palace and buried his books in the palace. If there were no new topics, Princess Guantao would not be so serious.

Yan An entered the door as a scholar and happened to hear Dong Zhongshu make a summary.

"Your lords, the sages say that food and sex are the great desires of people. Also, it is said that enough food and enough soldiers are believed by the people. Food has always been the cornerstone of the safety of the world. People have no food, and even if the sage is in power, they cannot be at peace, let alone the Qin Emperor was tyrannical and powerful. Therefore, Qin was destroyed, and it was not about not caring about the people's strength, breaking through the bottom line, forcing the people to rise up, and responding to one call..."

When Yan An heard this, his brows frowned slightly, and he felt that there was no new meaning. The allusion was obvious. It would be fine. Dong Zhongshu was just a pedantic master. But how could Princess Guantao let him make such remarks on such occasions? Who are the people present? How could they all agree, as if they had a lot of feelings?

What did Princess Guantao want to do? The more Yan An thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and the back of his head became a little cold.

Yan An did not make any statement. He found a corner and sat down quietly. When the meeting ended, everyone dispersed before he revealed his identity to meet. When he learned that it was Yan An, the close minister beside the emperor, asked for a meeting, Princess Guantao did not dare to neglect, so he immediately sent someone to invite Yan An in.

Yan An was short of time and did not make too much courteous. As soon as he met, he raised his own questions and reminded Princess Guantao that it was inappropriate.

Princess Guantao couldn't help laughing when she heard this. She waved. "Come on, take Master Dong's speech. I was about to send someone to Ganquan Palace to ask the emperor for reference. Since Yan Jun is here, I will ask him to evaluate first."

Yan An breathed a sigh of relief. Since Princess Guantao did not intend to hide it, it means that the problem was not serious enough. He didn't have to think too much, spread out his manuscript and quickly browsed it. He always read very quickly, but this time he stopped after only a few glances.

The article is not complicated, but there are a lot of numbers in it—
