"Such a thought can be traced back to "Nv Jie" written by Ban Zhao in the Eastern Han Dynasty. It said that women's virtues do not need to be talents to be clear and unique. This means that women's talents do not need to be exposed everywhere, but must be known."
"It can be seen that the ancients never thought that making women uneducated would be a manifestation of female virtue, but rather to persuade women not to show off their talents or not to take their talents too seriously, that's all."
Lin Qiuming's explanation is certainly authoritative.
After what he said, the people around him showed expressions of shock and knowledge. Li Chen also noticed that some of the powerful people also had shocked faces. Apparently, there were also a few of them who were well-dressed and well-educated.
illiteracy.
After rubbing the little girl's head, Li Chen stood up and waved his hand: "Okay, it's almost time. Let the people disperse and go have lunch. After eating, I have to go on my way."
Lin Qiuming immediately bowed in response.
A large number of people went straight to the city lord's palace. The banquet had already been prepared. As the protagonist, Li Chen would definitely attend. However, Zhao Xuanji and Zhou Ping'an had their own reasons and were too lazy to interfere with them. They both refused, and Lin Qiuming didn't either.
The qualifications were so demanding that I had to have a sumptuous meal prepared and delivered to him alone. Naturally, everyone else in the convoy could also enjoy a feast.
At the banquet, Li Chen sat at the top. No one was qualified to sit at the same table with him, but Li Chen felt that he would be too stupid to eat at the same table by himself, so he asked Lin Qiuming to bring a group of officials from Baoding Prefecture and
They were sitting at the same table, and the other dignitaries were really not qualified to sit at the main table. However, they never thought that they could eat at the same table with Li Chen. They sat at six or seven separate tables, and they could have a seat with His Highness the Crown Prince.
It's quite an honor.
From this banquet, it can be seen that Lin Qiuming is indeed a smart and careful person.
He had obviously inquired about Li Chen's eating habits in advance, so although the entire banquet was sumptuous, there were not too expensive dishes. The top ingredient was only deep-sea dragon clams. Although it was valuable, compared to the number of people at the table
His status is quite satisfactory, at least he doesn't have any weird things like grouper eyes or chicken tongue.
What surprised Li Chen the most was that the staple food was actually a large pot of sweet potatoes.
Li Chen originally thought that this was Lin Qiuming's intention to please him, but later he realized that this was not the case.
"Your Highness, this sweet potato is really a masterpiece! Nowadays, most people around Baoding Prefecture eat sweet potatoes as their staple food. They can bake them, make porridge, or boil them whole. Some people have discovered that they dry the sweet potatoes and then grind them.
It can be turned into powder and can be made into food similar to flour. This thing is full of treasures, and it is easy to grow, easy to harvest, and the yield is large. I don’t know how many people are grateful to Your Highness for this."
Li Chen peeled open a sweet potato. The yellow, orange and orange sweet potatoes were strands, steaming and fragrant. One bite filled his mouth with a sticky aroma, which was satisfying.
Li Chen smiled happily and said: "This thing is worth promoting. It seems that your Baoding Mansion has done a good job."
Lin Qiuming smiled softly and said to Li Chen: "Your Highness, the largest grain merchant in Baoding Prefecture is also the one who firmly promoted sweet potatoes from the beginning. Under his leadership, Baoding Prefecture was able to realize the benefits of sweet potatoes so quickly. He is here
Now, would you like to meet, Your Highness?"
Li Chen looked at Lin Qiuming with a half-smile.
As mentioned before, Lin Qiu Ming's position is unstable. If he wants to keep his position, he must not only exert his efforts on top, but also seek support from local forces locally. This introduction is most likely Lin Qiu Ming's return of favor to the opponent.
