After recovering from the shock, everyone discovered a new problem.
But Meng Yi said thoughtfully: "This matter is easy to say but not easy to do. The delivery speed of the Great Qin Military News is already the fastest. The delivery of this newspaper is probably not faster than the military news... .”
As he said that, he turned to look at Zhao Hao: "If it's not fast, will it be effective?"
"This is only one, there is another!"
Before Zhao Hao could respond, Li Si questioned him again:
"Young master, do you know that there are thirty-six counties in the world and tens of thousands of people in Guizhou? If you want to spread the contents of the newspaper to them, how many people will be needed to do it?"
Zhao Hao smiled and shook his head and said, "Does Li Tingwei think that the newsboys I mentioned are going to publicize the contents of the newspaper one by one?"
"That young master means..."
"It is almost impossible to catch a large number of illiterate people in Daqin and let them read newspapers. However, the number of newsboys is limited, so we can only focus on publicity, such as for people in one village and one li, at a fixed time and at a fixed place!"
"What a great plan, Master!"
When Feng Jie heard this, he excitedly said: "As soon as this newspaper comes out, we in Daqin will no longer be choked by those scholars in the future!"
"What about the delivery method and effect?"
Meng Yi continued to ask.
Zhao Hao glanced at him, shrugged and said: "With the current traffic conditions in Daqin, it is simply impossible to deliver newspapers as fast as military newspapers. We can only distribute them through inns to the county newspaper officers, and then they will Send newsboys to spread the word!”
"As for the effect? This has something to do with the authenticity of the newspaper content. As long as the content is true, the effect will be achieved!"
"this...."
Meng Yi was speechless and looked up at Ying Zheng.
However, Ying Zheng frowned and seemed to be deep in thought.
Although Zhao Hao had told him about public opinion, the 'newspaper' opened up new ideas for him.
After a moment of silence, he came back to his senses and looked at Zhao Hao doubtfully: "Are you sure this newspaper can work?"
Zhao Hao thought for a while and replied sincerely: "It is possible in theory, but the actual situation needs to be studied. After all, the six countries have just been unified, and there are undercurrents. Newspapers are useful to us, but harmful to them!"
"Yes, there are many smart people in hundreds of families among the remnants of the Six Kingdoms!" Feng Quji agreed.
Wang Wan stroked his beard and said: "The purpose of the newspaper's promotion is obvious, and it is not surprising that they see it. What if they incite those who rely on them to oppose the newspaper?"
"What you said makes sense. Our colleagues are enemies. They can't let us promote the newspaper."
Zhao Hao nodded in approval, and then changed the subject:
"But have you ever thought that if the newspaper continues to be promoted, the people who are most opposed may not be the various schools of thought and the remnants of the Six Kingdoms as you mentioned, but the scholars!"
"Um?"
Everyone was slightly stunned when they heard Zhao Hao's words.
Ying Zheng frowned slightly, seeming a little surprised.
But Zhao Hao continued: "Think about it, before the promotion of newspapers, the status of scholars was higher than that of the head of Guizhou, because they were literate in writing and had access to all kinds of upper-level information, including imperial decrees;
After the promotion of newspapers, the head of Guizhou can also know the world affairs. For them, decades of hard study in a cold window are not as good as the head of Guizhou. Can they accept it? "
"this....."
Everyone was speechless and seemed to think there was some truth.
But Ying Zheng snorted coldly: "So what if you can't accept it? Do they dare to destroy the newspaper openly?"
After saying that, he looked around at everyone and said, "Have you forgotten? I, Da Qin, am not a scholar who only talks!"
"I don't believe it anymore. They really think they are brave and not afraid of death. Even so, how many heads do they have to chop off?"
"If you want to use me to kill you, then I will kill you, so what?"
Hearing this, everyone nodded in approval.
If the First Emperor becomes timid due to various concerns, then he is no longer the First Emperor.
Seeing that everyone was being led astray by the First Emperor's domineering words, Zhao Hao couldn't help but raise his hand to his forehead and sighed: "Scholars also have their own differences..."
"Divide people?"
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and stared directly at Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao said with emotion: "There are scholars in hundreds of families, and there are scholars in the old families, including those remnants of the Six Kingdoms. There are also scholars, but besides them, there is another group, and that is the poor family!"
"I can only say that your understanding of scholars is not comprehensive enough. You don't know at all that among all scholars, those from poor families suffer the most!"
"The pain of a poor family?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be filled with doubts.
Among the seven people present, Li Si had the lowest background, being a granary clerk. The others were all from Qin nobles, and they really didn't understand the poor family.
Seeing Ying Zheng pondering for a moment, he asked Zhao Hao: "Are you talking about the problem of reading?"
"good."
Zhao Hao nodded: "The biggest pain of a poor family is studying!"
“Although they are also called scholars, they are very different from real scholars. For example, the books they read are not their own, but borrowed ones.
If they want to make progress, they have to go to the old family's home to borrow books and read them, or even have to live under someone else's roof and work as cattle or horses for others! "
"If this were not the case, how could so many Confucian scholars die for their health? Are they willing to be driven by them?"
"Because Confucius provided them with the opportunity to study, which is a great kindness!"
"What do scholars pay attention to? Repay kindness!"
"If you think about those Confucian scholars who died before, you will know the suffering of poor families in the world!"
"Their desire for knowledge is like the desire for an oasis of people walking in the desert without drinking water for days and nights!"
"this...."
Everyone was shocked by Zhao Hao's words.
Although they hate those pedantic Confucian scholars, they have never thought about why those Confucian scholars are pedantic.
I don’t even know if those Confucian scholars are real Confucian scholars.
Seeing everyone's eyes turn from chaotic to clear, Zhao Hao spoke again: "Put yourself in their shoes and think about it, if you are a poor student, you have to rely on a noble family and live under someone else's roof in order to study;
At this time, the First Emperor suddenly published a newspaper, publishing anecdotes and even famous classics, so that you can know the world's affairs and learn famous classics without leaving home..."
After saying that, he paused and said with a half-smile: "How do you feel?"
Boom!
After hearing Zhao Hao's words, everyone felt as if they were struck by lightning, and their heads were buzzing.
Good guy!
This is simply a great kindness!
I directly '666'!
After recovering from the shock, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Zhao Hao, and their breathing even became more and more rapid.
Even Ying Zheng, the first emperor who could not change his expression despite the collapse of Mount Tai, could not help but feel excited.
"Then...it feels like beef falling from the sky, almost..."
Wang Wan couldn't help mumbling to herself.
Zhao Hao touched his nose, smiled, and joked: "Old Prime Minister knows food..."
"But, old prime minister, think about it again, if in this situation, those aristocratic families are asked to oppose the newspaper again, what will they do?"
"No need to think about it! Of course not!"
After hearing this, Wang Wan replied without hesitation: "Even if it is done as a last resort, it is just a double act and no effort!"
"now it's right!"
Zhao Hao showed a satisfied smile and looked at Ying Zheng and others again: "In fact, not only the nobles of the aristocratic families, but also the hundreds of schools of thought, and even the remnants of the Six Kingdoms are not monolithic. If not, they would have caused huge waves in our Great Qin. "
"Once our Daqin newspaper becomes popular, it will become the mainstream of public opinion. Every once in a while, various news will spread all over the world. Think about it again, what will happen to those hundreds of schools of thought who have devoted their lives to revitalizing the school?"
"!
! "
Everyone's eyes suddenly shrank, like a magnitude 9 earthquake.
thump!
Li Si couldn't sit still and fell directly to the ground.
Everyone followed the sound, and Li Si got up awkwardly and laughed dryly: "Don't blame me, my legs are numb."
"hehe!"
Ying Zheng smiled noncommittally, ignored him, and raised his hand to Zhao Hao again.
Zhao Hao scratched his head, calmed down, calmed down his emotions, and then continued: "All schools of thought are eager to develop. We have a newspaper. When the time comes, we will release the news. If they are willing, they can open a column in the newspaper to promote their own business." theory...."
"Do you believe that the scholars who originally scorned our Great Qin and even hated it very much will become our Great Qin's licking dogs and beat their brains out just for a column spot?"
boom! boom! boom!
As soon as Zhao Hao finished speaking, three voices sounded at the same time, and they turned out to be the Feng family father and son, and the old prime minister Wang Wan.
"Don't blame me, sir, my legs are numb too!"
"Yes, sir, I'm numb!"
"Yes, yes, we are numb!"
Seeing the three veterans of the empire nodding and bowing, with big embarrassed expressions on their faces.
Ying Zheng almost laughed out loud, but he still held it back.
Zhao Hao looked at them blankly, wondering if it was time to promote the bench? Sitting on your knees does make your legs numb, and your blood doesn’t circulate.
After a moment, Meng Yi seemed to have come to his senses. He took a breath of cold air and said in shock: "Young master, what a trick to drive the tiger away and devour the wolf, divide it and eat it!"
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Young master is truly a god!"
"Yes! If you can govern the country, my great Qin will surely reach a higher level..."
"Young Master is not only capable of governing the country, but also the military can not be underestimated. Doesn't this strategy also include the art of war?"
"..."
Seeing that everyone was getting more and more outrageous, Zhao Hao subconsciously looked at Ying Zheng, but saw Ying Zheng looking back at him with a smile that was not a smile. He couldn't help being startled, and quickly waved his hands: "Stop it, stop it! Don't flatter me, I can't. I don’t want to die young!”
"Hahaha!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Ying Zheng also laughed.
After a while, Ying Zheng said solemnly: "According to you, the role of newspapers in our Da Qin is crucial?"
"Of course!"
Zhao Hao said with determination: "Actually, the role of newspapers is not only these, but there are many more. I will not mention them here. Anyway, the most urgent task is to establish the newspaper office so that we can take the next step!"
"Oh? What's the next move?"
"Hehe, it's just the hot topic that Father mentioned!"
