"Well, there are fifty carriages, that's a lot. Brother Ma, today you have someone write an advertisement for our carriages and put it in tomorrow's "Datang Daily"! Well, there are also "Datang Dictionary" As for the promotional ads, you will also start placing them tomorrow, do preliminary publicity first, and after we have printed a thousand copies, we will then put them on Funny Culture for sale!"
The front yard of the workshop.
Li Zexuan heard Uncle Fu's suggestion and nodded in agreement.
"Well, no problem! It's just that, Sir, didn't you ask Mr. Li to write the preface to "Datang Dictionary" before? Why..."
Ma Zhou asked doubtfully.
"Haha~! What we are doing now is just preliminary publicity. Printing a thousand copies of the "Datang Dictionary" cannot be done in one day. Even if the scale of the workshop is much larger than before, it will take at least two or three days! We need Let people know what the "Datang Dictionary" is first, and then wait until the dictionary is fully stocked, and then release Mr. Li's preface! After all, he is also one of the people who writes articles for our "Datang Daily". The one with the most noble status!"
Li Zexuan chuckled and explained.
Although Li Gang has resigned for many years, his qualifications are there and he is still at the top of the literary pyramid of the Tang Dynasty. Such a big man takes the initiative to support the "Datang Dictionary". Of course, Li Zexuan must keep his preface. It’s the finale!
"Well, what your lordship said makes sense, then Ma will personally write promotional materials for the new carriage and the "Datang Dictionary"!"
Ma Zhou thought about it and felt it made sense. He nodded in agreement and was ready to go back and start writing the advertisement. After all, it was already evening and the time was tight and the tasks were heavy!
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Brother Ma!"
Li Zexuan patted Ma Zhou on the shoulder, said politely, watched him leave, and then said to Uncle Fu next to him: "Uncle Fu, tomorrow we will transport ten carriages to Qiquge Pavilion and hand them over to Shopkeeper Sun. Cooperate with us." With the newspaper publicity and the excellent quality of the carriage itself, sales will definitely not be a problem!”
"Yes, Master!"
Fu Bo breathed a sigh of relief and cupped his hands.

"Your Majesty, Li Siye needs to see you for something important!"
Inside the Manna Hall.
After finally finishing today's memorial, Li Er stretched out tiredly and flexed his wrist. Suddenly a chamberlain came in and bowed to report.
"Oh~? Does this kid still take the initiative to find me?"
Li Er felt that the sun was really shining in the west today. Of all the meetings he had with Li Zexuan, didn't he call Li Zexuan over because something happened? From the beginning to the end, Li Zexuan never took the initiative to enter the palace and look for him.
"Announce him to come in!"
Li Er put down the ink pen in his hand, leaned on the dragon chair, closed his eyes and rested, waiting for Li Zexuan to come in at leisure.
A moment later, Li Zexuan walked in holding a thick book. After the emperor and his ministers greeted each other, Li Er looked at the book in Li Zexuan's hand and asked curiously:
"What kind of book is this in your arms? Are you here to present a book to me today?"
"Your Majesty has a keen eye, and this boy is here to present a book today!"
Li Zexuan smiled.
"Oh~? What's the book? Submit it quickly! A book that your boy can deliver in person must be extraordinary!"
Li Er regained his energy and said slightly excitedly.
Zhao Song, who was beside Li Er, quickly went down to take the book, and then put his hands in front of Li Er's Long Case.
Li Er took the dictionary with one hand and held it lightly. On the red cover, he saw four large gilded characters written with flying dragons and phoenixes - Dictionary of the Tang Dynasty. These four characters were graceful like silver hooks, moving like startling luan, floating like floating clouds. , As powerful as a frightening dragon, the writing is so powerful that it makes people intoxicated.
The "Datang Dictionary" given by Li Zexuan is the first dictionary just printed by the workshop, and it also comes with a cover. As for the four cool and cool characters on the cover, they were written by Li Gang himself. , naturally looks full of style.
"Oh~! It's actually the "Datang Dictionary"? Has it been compiled so quickly?"
When Li Eryi saw the words "Datang Dictionary" on the cover, he instantly remembered that Li Zexuan had mentioned to him more than a month ago that he wanted to compile a dictionary to help children from poor families learn to read and write. At that time, he not only He greatly praised it and asked brothers Li Chengqian and Li Tai to jointly send people to help Li Zexuan complete the compilation as soon as possible, but he really didn't expect the progress to be so fast.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the "Datang Dictionary" has just been compiled today. I have specially brought it here for you to review. After that, I will print it in large quantities and send it to Qiquge Pavilion for sale. By then, countless people will be literate because of it! "
Li Zexuan cupped his hands and said.
"Haha! Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Li Er happily shouted "Hello" three times in a row. He laughed and said, "You did a good job this time and handled things very quickly. I'm very pleased!"
"Your Majesty is so flattering, so flattering! Hehe!"
Li Zexuan immediately became very happy and laughed.
"Who wrote these four words "Datang Dictionary"? Looking at this handwriting, I...why do I feel that it is very familiar?"
Only then did Li Er ask about the four bold characters on the cover.
"Your Majesty, the person who wrote these four words is Mr. Li Gangli! The old man is highly respected, so I asked him to come out and nominate him for the cover of "Datang Dictionary"!"
Li Zexuan talked nonsense, as if he was running around and visiting celebrities four times in order to complete the "Dictionary of the Tang Dynasty".
"Li Gang!!"
Li Er looked stunned and murmured to himself with some sudden realization. After being stunned for a full quarter of an hour, Li Er stared into Li Zexuan's eyes and said with a complicated expression:
"You are so talented! Mr. Li Gang has been living in seclusion for many years. I have been trying to invite him back to be Cheng Qian's teacher, but he has always refused to accept it. I didn't expect that he actually came to you. It's really..."
"It turns out that Li Er has long wanted to let Li Gang be Li Chengqian's teacher. Tsk tsk, but this progress doesn't seem to be what Li Er expected!"
Li Zexuan muttered in his heart, he didn't expect that as a ninety-five-year-old supreme leader, Lao Li would also be disrespected by others! Rare and rare!
"This kid doesn't have any abilities, it's just Mr. Li's great love!"
Li Zexuan said modestly.
"Haha~! Let's not talk about this for now. Let's wait until I read the contents!"
Li Er shook his head, said something, then opened the "Datang Dictionary" and started reading.
After realizing the superiority of Pinyin, Li Er studied Pinyin specifically for a while.
Similar to the situation when Li Zexuan just saw the "Datang Dictionary" today, Li Er first curiously looked at the pinyin catalog page and the radical catalog page in front of him, and then he got excited and thought of a few Chinese characters for himself. , began to check and play.
The result is of course unquestionable, there are no wrong page numbers, everything is correct!
"Haha! Okay! This "Datang Dictionary" is really good. I will leave this one to me! You guys will arrange for people to print this dictionary in large quantities as soon as possible, and strive to promote the dictionary as soon as possible. I will give you a lot of rewards when the time comes! "
