Luo Niancheng took over the job of registering for an accelerated English training school, which was originally his business.

When registering the name, Na Zhiming really wanted to register New Oriental, but in the end he suppressed his bad taste and gave the opportunity to name it to Pang Fang.

Pang Fang didn't want to name it by herself, because she didn't invest the company's funds herself, and even the idea for running the school wasn't her own.

But Na Zhiming couldn't stand it and said that from now on she would hold [-]% of the shares in this company, which is one percent more than the third largest shareholder, Future Advertising Company, and she is the second largest boss of the company. Who should I ask?

In fact, the name was just a moment of inspiration. Pang Fang thought carefully and came up with a name - Yanjing Ingres Poetry Training School.

Na Zhiming thought it was good. Although it was a little more feminine and less powerful than New Oriental, it also had a more romantic flavor in it.

It will take a while for the school to verify the name, and Na Zhiming can't go anywhere for a while because of Weng Meiling, but Na Zhiming is not in a hurry, and goes for a walk in Liulichang while there is nothing else.

You must know that Liulichang today is not like that of later generations. There are still many genuine products.

And compared with those in later generations, where the auction prices can easily reach tens of millions or hundreds of millions, the prices at this time are relatively reasonable.

But today Zhiming is not here to buy these things, he is here to find someone.

After leaving home, head west for about a thousand meters until you reach Hufang Bridge, then turn north and reach South Xinhua Street.

After walking a few hundred meters, we reached the famous Liulichang of China.

Liulichang Cultural Street, famous both at home and abroad, is located outside Hepingmen in Yanjing.

It goes west to Nanbei Liuxiang in Xicheng District and east to Yanshou Street in Xicheng District, with a total length of about [-] meters.

In fact, historically speaking, as far back as the Liao Dynasty, this place was not a city, but a suburb. It was called "Haiwang Village" at that time.

Later, during the Yuan Dynasty, official kilns were opened here to bake glazed tiles.

Since the time of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty, when the inner city was being built, the scale of the official kilns was expanded due to the construction of palaces, and Liulichang became one of the five major factories of the Ministry of Industry of the imperial court at that time.

It was only after the construction of the outer city in the [-]nd year of Jiajing's reign in the Ming Dynasty that this area slowly became an urban area.

Therefore, it was no longer suitable for Liulichang to burn kilns in the city, and it was moved to Liuliqu Village in Mentougou District.

But the name "Liulichang" has been retained and has been passed down to this day.

In the early Qing Dynasty, during the Shunzhi period, the imperial court implemented "separate residence for Manchu and Han people" in the capital.

Liulichang was just in the west of the outer city. Most of the Han officials at that time lived nearby. Later, guild halls from all over the country to the capital were also built in this area.

Officials and candidates rushing for exams often gathered here to visit the book market, so the prosperous Qianmen, Dengshikou and Chenghuang Temple book markets in Xicheng during the Ming Dynasty were gradually moved to Liulichang.

It also attracted booksellers from all over the place to set up stalls, build rooms and sell their collections of books.

Slowly, the bustling market and convenient conditions formed "a place for elegant travel in Kyoto", making the Liulichang area gradually develop into the largest book market in Beijing and forming a cultural street with a gathering of people.

Then, culturally related pens, inks, paper and inkstones, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc. also developed.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, a normal school was built on the site of the original Liulichang factory, which was the predecessor of the High School Affiliated to Normal University.

Haiwang Village Park was built to the south of the original factory site, which became the center of Liulichang Market and one of the busiest places in Changdian later.

During the Republic of China, around [-], the Peace Arch and Xinhua Street were built.

Since then, Liulichang Cultural Street has been divided into East Liulichang and West Liulichang.

Because this geomantic treasure was a place where officials, scholars, literati, cultural businessmen, and pear gardeners of that era lived together.

Over the years, this place has the richest humanistic resources:

Classic allusions, legends, and cultural landscapes.

All of these reflect part of the "national soul" of the Chinese people in their cultural heritage and spiritual world.

However, after the Republic of China, various industries such as bookstores and antiques in Liulichang Cultural Street have long declined.

Especially during the fall of Yanjing, all calligraphy and painting shops were dying and shops closed down one after another.

As it was said in the "Gudu Zhuzhi Ci" that year:

Birds plundering the door when reading everywhere,

Neptune Village is as quiet as a forest.

I am determined by my esteemed brother when I am free.

Paintings from the Song and Yuan Dynasties that have been waiting for a thousand years.

There was a scene of depression everywhere.

..............................

Na Zhiming strolled leisurely, heading towards West Liulichang first.

After passing Courtyard No. [-] and passing Wenchangzhai, he turned to the side and arrived in front of a house.

The door was unlocked and ajar. Zhiming stretched his head and looked inside.

Inside is a small yard with a shed in the middle and a half-hanging grape vine, which is growing a little green at this time.

The doors to the east and west wings were closed, only the main room in the middle had its door open, and outside the door there was a kind-hearted old lady choosing vegetables.

Not far from the old lady, there was a simple stroller made of wood.

There was a child in the car who looked to be about half a year old, drooling and eating his fist.

The old lady was talking to the child while choosing vegetables:

"My dear, please grow up quickly. When you grow up, you will become the literary star of this street.

Give us the number one scholar in the Chang family, wear red and green, ride a big horse, and be the prime minister in a python robe and jade belt. "

Na Zhiming sounded interesting, so he raised his voice slightly and shouted:

"Grandma, I'm passing by and I'm thirsty. Can you give me a sip of water?"

The old lady in the yard looked over when she heard the sound and saw a clean big boy like Zhiming.

Especially that young face with a bright smile and two rows of shining teeth, which is very rare.

Coupled with the very crisp sound of grandma’s scream just now, I couldn’t help but smile and said:

"Okay, come in, grandma will pour you some water."

As he spoke, he stood up, picked up a large enamel teapot from the tea tray on the window sill, and poured a full tank of water into the small enamel teapot on the tray.

At this time, Na Zhiming also walked in, took the enamel jar from the old lady's hand with both hands, and drank all the water in one go.

Then he returned the enamel jar to the old lady with both hands, bowed and thanked:

"Thank you grandma."

After getting up, he glanced at the child next to him and said with a smile:

"Grandma, is this little guy your grandson?

He looks so cute, he must be a talent when he grows up.

What is his name? "

When the old lady heard someone praising her grandson, she was extremely happy.
