Shen Mei thought Song Huan was going to make some request. When she heard that Song Huan's request was so simple, she immediately agreed without any hesitation.
"no problem!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, whenever you need anything, you can always come to me!"
"As long as I, Shen Mei, have this ability, there will never be any shirk!"
Although Shen Mei is only a woman, as one of the leading merchants in Daliang, her pride is unmatched by many men.
It's just that when Shen Mei's words fell into his ears, it always made people feel that something was strange...
"correct!"
Shen Mei suddenly looked serious, as if he suddenly thought of something important.
"But Your Highness, don't you need to print five hundred books in five days?"
"It's definitely too late to use what you call 'movable type printing' now."
"But if we still use the old method, five days will definitely not be enough!"
Hearing this, Song Huan felt a little disappointed.
"In that case, forget it!"
"Speaking of which, this thing is dispensable, but it's not that important."
"If it can't be printed within five days, then it can't be printed!"
Today Lin Zhihuan came to visit, and Song Huan wrote down nearly a hundred poems and articles in one go, compiling a collection of works.
Looking at this collection of works and the treasured expression on Lin Zhihuan's face, Song Huan suddenly had a bold idea in his mind -
Why not take this opportunity to sell this collection?
After all, this is a collection of fine poems compiled by Prince Rong himself and carefully selected by the Wenyuan Pavilion scholar of the time!
If this collection of poems can help Lin Zhihuan retain his position as a bachelor five days later, that will be even more amazing!
By that time, once this collection of works is released, it will not be snatched up by a large number of readers!
Of course, selling your portfolio for money is just an additional benefit.
Song Huan understood that what he wanted to fight for next was the position of prince, the future supreme leader of Daliang!
When it comes to generals, I have the support of my uncle Cheng Tianlin.
Although there are not many soldiers in the Shenji Camp, they are now considered a force that cannot be underestimated in the Daliang Court!
Based on this alone, Song Huan would be better than the third prince Song Liang who was also a competitor.
But when it comes to speaking officials, Song Huan's chances of winning are not great.
Although Prime Minister Cheng Xun supported Song Huan, he was an upright man and never formed cliques. His words and deeds could only represent himself.
As an important department of the Liang Dynasty, Wenyuan Pavilion can definitely be regarded as the first official among the civil and military officials.
Song Huan once formed a feud with them, and they were both disliked by each other.
But today Lin Zhihuan came to visit and revealed a crucial piece of information to Song Huan——
Although the old scholars in Wenyuan Pavilion did not like Song Huan's personality, they all praised Song Huan's works.
This made Song Huan find another way and think of a more effective method——
Why not just use your own strength to shut up those old scholars completely?
According to Lin Zhihuan, once his collection of works is released, it will inevitably arouse the pursuit of the group of publicists.
At that time, no matter how much they hated Song Huan for his sharp tongue, they would not be able to say a word when faced with Song Huan's strength!
Not only the civil servants of the dynasty, this collection of works can also change the view of Song Huan among the literati among the people.
In the past, in their minds, Song Liang was the number one literary figure in Daliang. He held poetry gatherings every year and had numerous guests. He was the person whom Daliang literati strived to make friends with.
Although Song Liang's strength today is not as good as it was back then, he still has a good reputation and many scholars still support him.
But with the blessing of this collection of works, Song Huan will definitely be able to win some fans from now on...
All in all, it’s just one sentence——
Publishing a portfolio of work is really a beneficial and harmless thing!
That's why Song Huan specifically asked Lin Zhihuan to write a copy for Song Huan after he finished memorizing the poems.
Fortunately, Lin Zhihuan admired Song Huan's works so much that even if he was asked to copy them again, he would be happy to do so!
But the current printing method is too inefficient. Within five days, I am afraid that we will not be able to catch up with this wave of popularity by striking while the iron is hot.
Seeing Song Huan's face full of disappointment, Shen Mei had an idea and said, "If your Highness can trust me, just give me this book!"
"After five days, I will find a way to return five hundred identical copies to His Highness!"
Seeing the confident smile on Shen Mei's face, Song Huan wondered: "Could it be that Miss Shen has a more efficient way than movable type printing?"
Could it be that this Miss Shen is the hidden boss, drawing inferences from the method she just proposed, and thinking of a more wonderful method?
If that's the case, then Shenmei's brain is truly a priceless treasure!
Shenmei looked ashamed, and smiled softly: "I only know how to calculate accounts and use stupid methods. How can I compare with His Highness's resourcefulness?"
"But as long as His Highness is willing to believe me, I will definitely give His Highness a satisfactory answer in five days!"
Song Huan did not have any doubts, and immediately nodded and said: "Of course I believe in Miss Shen's ability!"
"Since it is left to Miss Shen, I can rest assured."
"By the way, there is one more thing that Miss Shen needs to pay more attention to!"
Shen Mei immediately ordered: "Your Highness, please just give me your orders!"
"But Your Highness, what you want to talk about is related to the canteen of the steel mill?"
Song Huan was slightly surprised: "How did Miss Shen know?"
Shen Mei immediately replied: "I have been busy with some business matters in the past few days, and I have been a little neglected in the management of the canteen."
"I'm afraid something went wrong in the cafeteria and it caused trouble to Your Highness again!"
Song Huan waved his hand slightly: "It's not that there was any trouble. It's just that we hired three new girls as cooks. I want you to keep an eye on them."
"Liu Qing is not careful enough. He is usually busy with other things in the factory, so it is inevitable that he will not notice some details."
"You are careful and can see some details that Liu Qing cannot."
"In fact, I can also give an order to Liu Qing to replace these three women."
"But Liu Qing said that they are all daughters of farmers. If this is the case, it will not be easy for them to get this profitable livelihood."
"I really don't want to ruin the opportunity they finally got because of my temporary suspicion!"
Shen Mei nodded and said with emotion: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely do what you tell me!"
Unexpectedly, a person of such noble status as Prince Rong could actually see the life and death of these common people in his eyes.
This is a trivial matter that many people in high positions would never think of or want to think about!
Unexpectedly, Prince Rong would be so attentive...
Thinking of this, Shen Mei's affection for Song Huan increased even more.
