If he hadn't been thinking about Ran Fang's identity, Lin Tao would have been sitting on the chair at this moment.
But from his language and expression, it can be seen that his attitude at this moment is completely without the respect he had when he came in just now.
It had been a long time since I heard someone dare to call him by his first name. Ran Fang looked at Lin Tao with a half-smile, but he didn't know when he could speak easily.
He stared straight at Lin Tao, and his aura instantly became much fiercer.
Lin Tao was still a little proud, but when he felt the changes in Ran Fang, his expression gradually took on a hint of worry and fear, as if he had just realized what he had said.
"me……"
His body was shaking slightly. He wanted to explain but didn't know where to start.
"I don't mean any disrespect, I just can't see Heng Gaozhuo taking advantage of you."
"Really, the commander must believe me."
As he said that, he almost knelt down in front of Ran Fang.
Seeing his appearance, Ran Fang smiled and all his aura was released.
Lin Tao, who felt Ran Fang's change, gasped for air and knelt on the ground with a "pop" sound. His heartbeat could not stop for a while.
Only then did he truly feel that Ran Fang was no longer the person he could laugh at and tease at will.
Now that he is so high up and has become the commander of Da Qin, no one in the court would dare to easily embarrass him.
Seeing him lying there, Ran Fang finally said: "The newspaper affairs have been handed over to Heng Gaozhuo. No matter what decision he makes, I will have no objection."
"What he did was based on my opinion."
"I won't care about what you said today. If I hear your words again, don't blame me for being merciless."
"Yes, yes," Lin Tao knelt on the ground and nodded hurriedly.
"Get out."
After receiving Ran Fang's pardon, Lin Tao got up and stumbled outside, without any trace of the arrogance he had just now.
After running non-stop to the street, he felt like he was surviving a disaster. He seemed to have felt the threat of death from Ran Fang just now.
After standing on the street for a while, he looked back at the direction of Ran Fang's mansion. The feeling of fear gradually dissipated, replaced by a sense of humiliation.
"You are just like me, but you are also a Confucian scholar. Now that you have an identity, you no longer look down on me!"
"Ran Fang, just wait and see!"
"I know everything about you before, and I will definitely ruin your reputation!"
After venting his resentment, he wiped his sweat and walked in the opposite direction to the Commander's Office.
What he didn't know was that someone in the distance saw this scene, remembered his appearance clearly, and then turned around and left.
Without his troubles, Heng Gaozhuo would have been very busy these days, but also very satisfied.
With the help of public servants, he quickly built a paper mill and a printing press.
When he was inspecting the results of the newspaper that day, he came to the door of the newspaper with the editors and reporters he had scheduled.
When a guard saw them, he immediately stepped forward and opened the door, and saw tables, chairs, shelves, pens, ink, paper, inkstones and other utensils that had been visited in the room according to Ran Fang's request.
In one room, there are also some printing molds and papers, which look very novel.
Heng Gaozhuo pointed to the things in the room and said to these people: "From now on, you can just come here every day."
"Everyone has their own name on the table. Take your positions and write articles here in the future."
"Tomorrow is the first newspaper. We must do it well and not let the commander down."
As he spoke, Heng Gaozhuo took out a piece of paper from his cuffs, unfolded it and showed it to everyone present, "This is the forecast of tomorrow's weather conditions. We need to set aside a space in the newspaper to write this news." Go up."
"The person responsible for this matter should write about the opening of the school and other things happening in the city."
"After an hour, everyone will hand in what they wrote, and I will decide what can be used and what cannot be used."
"If you can't write well, or if you don't write well enough, you may be eliminated."
Everyone nodded and said in unison: "Here."
After Heng Gaozhuo walked into his room, those people began to find their places.
After sitting down, everyone looked at their own seats with some curiosity. This kind of treatment was something they had never experienced before.
And the paper on the table was much better than what they had used before.
Touching the paper, they seemed to be afraid to write.
"This is actually true?"
"This paper is much better than what I saw before."
"Yes, the commander is really a capable person!"
After a few words of praise, they saw the only woman starting to write.
Thinking of Heng Gaozhuo's words just now, everyone started to get busy, fearing that they would be eliminated.
When the stipulated time came, everyone rushed to deliver the articles they had written to Heng Gaozhuo's room.
Heng Gaozhuo selected a few more suitable articles and sent them all to Ran Fang's house without stopping.
After getting Ran Fang's approval, he led his people to print these articles as quickly as possible, and then sent them to the printing factory to start mass printing.
In the evening, Da Qin's first newspaper was successfully placed on Ran Fang's table.
The most attractive thing in Xianyang City today is this legendary newspaper, and it is also the only topic in Xianyang City today.
Previously, because of the recruitment of workers by the newspaper, although the newspaper had made a fuss in the city, after all, people had no idea about newspapers.
Now in the most lively and prosperous place in the city, Heng Gaozhuo was ordered by Ran Fang to send out today's newspapers for free, at least to let people know what this newspaper is.
Therefore, for a time, in the streets, wine shops, and teahouses, wherever there were many people, someone would deliver a newspaper.
Everyone knew that this newspaper was made by Ran Fang, so they all accepted it happily, and they were even a little proud because they had a newspaper.
Those who were not sent newspapers also wanted to join in and grab a copy for themselves.
Driven by such an atmosphere, people were actually proud to have newspapers in their hands.
Even those who are illiterate still want to get a share to show their abilities.
Gu Siyuan, who was at Xichuan Tea House, was very excited with a newspaper in his hand. He asked his boy to stand in the crowd and read the contents of the newspaper verbatim.
It is to let both literate and illiterate people know what this newspaper is and what is written in this newspaper.
The most attractive thing is about the school.
It clearly states on it that Da Qin will open a school just to teach people how to read, read, write and understand. Anyone can participate regardless of their status.
If your living conditions are difficult, you can apply in advance and provide free opportunities to make money. However, if you make money in the future, you will have to pay it back in full.
Coupled with the previous imperial examination system, people were most concerned about the affairs of this school.
"This is real?"
"Let everyone in the world be literate?"
“How can you be literate even if you don’t have money?”
"Why haven't I heard this news? Is it true or false?"
"It must be true. This was done by the commander, and it was approved by His Majesty. How can it be false?"
