The papyrus used by ordinary people to wipe their butts!

Zhu Yuanzhang's vulgar words also made Li Shanchang's face look much uglier.

But he didn't dare and couldn't have an attack, so he could only endure it.

"Your Majesty, I am stupid and don't know what to do?"

Cui Liang said.

If you do it, you will admit it.

Keeping a tough talk will not end well in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"You should read this first. After reading it, tell me if you can let people buy more people's newspapers and read them."

Zhu Yuanzhang changed the direction of the article on the table. It was exactly what he wrote last night.

Li Shanchang and Cui Liang immediately stepped forward and read the article carefully and seriously.

However, it is difficult for the two of them to have their heads too close together. They are old and a little dazzled.

For a moment, it was a little embarrassing.

"Use this."

Zhu Yuanzhang directly took out a magnifying glass and placed it on the text: "Move it and read it yourself."

When the magnifying glass came out, both Li Shanchang and Cui Liang were shocked.

Because they haven't seen it.

We had known about glass before, and the paintings and embroideries in the palace are now all made of glass.

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang started to use it, and the ministers naturally followed suit.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not make glass exclusively for the royal family.

After all, if the ministers use it, they can also increase orders for Su Jing.

Considering Su Jing's contribution, it is natural for him to earn more.

This magnifying glass directly enlarged the font, and Li Shanchang and Cui Liang could see it much clearly immediately.

The two of them were surprised, but this was obviously not the time to discuss the magnifying glass.

They read the article written by Zhu Yuanzhang patiently and carefully.

They naturally knew Zhu Yuanzhang's handwriting.

So I watched it very carefully.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat directly on the office chair and just waited without being in a hurry.

After almost two sticks of incense, Li Shanchang and Cui Liang finished reading, and they both took a step back.

"You've finished reading it, right? Tell me, do you have the confidence to let the people's newspaper spread among the people?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked the two of them.

Li Shanchang immediately said: "With your majesty's wonderful plan, I will definitely be able to complete it."

"Your Majesty has a fantastic idea, and I admire it. As soon as this method comes out, within half a year, the people's newspaper will be popular in the Ming Dynasty!"

Cui Liang also said to Zhu Yuanzhang very excitedly.

Zhu Yuanzhang’s article basically answered all the difficulties that had troubled them previously.

In fact, this is Su Jing's answer.

Of course, this doesn't mean they are stupid.

Firstly, they have never seen the newspaper news dissemination of later generations, and secondly, they dare not use things like soft advertising and shock media directly if they are allowed to use them directly.

This is something Zhu Yuanzhang personally named to do. Once they have done it, they have to let Zhu Yuanzhang review it.

This thing appeared directly in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. They didn't have the courage!

"Very good. I have already remembered what you two said. Go ahead and do it. Don't let me down."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the two of them and said calmly.

Although there was no reproach in the tone, the royal majesty was clearly displayed.

"I obey the decree!" X2

The two men immediately bowed and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang, then turned and left.

Outside Fengxian Hall.

"Master Cui, I hope you don't mind."

Li Shanchang immediately expressed humility to Cui Liang.

He had already thought about resigning. Although he had just dumped the blame on Cui Liang in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, he still had to make amends this time.

"What did the Prime Minister say? This matter is because the official did not do it carefully enough. It is the official's fault."

Cui Liang responded with a smile, not knowing whether he really didn't care or not.

They are all masters of imagining things and making mistakes.

"By the way, Mr. Cui, what do you think of the methods you used against His Majesty?"

Li Shanchang changed his subject and asked Cui Liang about the methods of running a civilian newspaper that Zhu Yuanzhang showed them just now.

Cui Liang nodded and said: "Your Majesty's fantastic idea makes me feel ashamed. If it is implemented in this way, the people's newspaper will surely take root in the Ming Dynasty."

The local self-administered method directly solves the problem of slow delivery speed of civilian newspapers.

And the method of inserting soft content and shock content is a bit vulgar.

But for the common people, it is a precise blasting at a fixed point.

The fire of public newspapers has become inevitable in Cui Liang's heart.

"I have the same view as Mr. Cui. The people's newspaper will definitely become an extremely important thing in the Ming Dynasty."

Li Shanchang said: "However, I guess Mr. Su taught your Majesty the methods and methods your Majesty mentioned today."

Su Jing!

Cui Liang heard Li Shanchang mention Su Jing again.

"Prime Minister, are you a little hasty? His Majesty did not mention anything about Mr. Su."

Cui Liang said.

In his heart, he still didn't accept Su Jing that well.

Li Shanchang smiled and said: "I'm just talking casually. Mr. Cui doesn't need to take it seriously. Let's take care of His Majesty's affairs first."

Not much to say, let’s stop talking.

Li Shanchang walked forward quickly, while Cui Liang behind him was thoughtful.

Did Su Jing really come up with these methods of reporting for the people?



Starting from Yingtian Mansion, Su Jing and his three people were rapidly approaching Shandong.

Because Zhu Rui was no longer on the carriage, the speed of the carriage was much faster now.

Of course, another reason is that Mu Ying's driving skills are much better than Su Jing's.

Even if it speeds up, the carriage is still very stable.

In the carriage, Su Jing was telling Zhu Biao about the propagation of sound.

Zhu Biao was quite curious about the fact that these two bamboo tubes could communicate directly with each other through a rope.

"Master Su, you mean that the sound we speak is actually a physical vibration phenomenon."

Zhu Biao said to Su Jing.

Su Jing nodded and said: "You are right to understand that. Sound is produced by vibration. Whether it is tapping or tapping, it actually produces vibration."

"Similarly, if sound wants to spread, it needs a medium, just like a car needs a road to run."

"Under normal circumstances, air is the medium, but in some cases, the transmission medium of air will not be ideal, and it will not be as good as two people inside and outside the carriage."

"The carriage is moving forward, which means the air is moving backward. The air in our carriage stays in the carriage due to inertia."

"As a result, the voices of people outside are not so clear due to the movement of the air."

Su Jing has not yet taught Zhu Biao the knowledge about sound waves.

He knew that the current explanation was actually a bit far-fetched, but it was enough to popularize Zhu Biao's knowledge.

Zhu Biao naturally understood it when he studied systematically later.

"Master Su, if this rope is long enough, can we be thousands of miles apart and still have a normal conversation?"

Zhu Biao asked Su Jing again.

The sound transmission through this bamboo tube is really magical.

"Niu Yi, this is not possible. Connecting with a rope actually uses the rope as a medium for sound transmission. Normal speech in the air will not be heard clearly if it is far away. The same is true for the rope. If it is too far away, the sound will not be transmitted. "

Su Jing smiled and shook her head.

Of course he knew about wired telephones, but this was the Ming Dynasty, and his knowledge of electricity was still limited to thunder and lightning in the sky.

Learning should be done step by step.

"Well, the student thought that if he could find a good medium, he could do it."

Zhu Biao was a little disappointed.

Just after listening to this class, he thought he could come up with something different.

"Niu Yi, don't be discouraged. Teacher, I said it can't be done, but it can't be done now. Maybe I will find the medium you mentioned in the future. No one can say for sure."

Su Jing immediately comforted him.

He didn't want to wait for Zhu Biao's enthusiasm to study physics.

While the two were talking, the carriage suddenly stopped.

It's an emergency stop!

Su Jing and Zhu Biao were caught off guard and leaned back.

"Master Su."

"Shh!"

When Zhu Biao was about to speak, Su Jing booed Zhu Biao directly.

Then he opened the car window next to him and took a brief look.

Opposite are three carriages, arranged one after another.

He didn't look like a robber or anything.

"Mr. Su."

Mu Ying's voice came.

Su Jing had already opened the door curtain and asked Mu Ying, "The other side wants us to get out of the way, right?"

This is beyond the boundary of Yingtian Mansion, and the road surface is a dirt road.

Concrete road or asphalt road, that's impossible.

Even the gravel roads are quite few.

The ruts on the road are car tracks, and they have become very deep after years of walking.

These marks are ruts, and they are very strong because they have been pressed many times.

This road is not wide, with only two ruts, and can only accommodate a carriage.

In this situation, once two opposing carriages meet, they have to give way.

"Yes, Mr. Su, they have three carriages. Let's make them come faster."

Mu Ying nodded.

"Then let it go. When you go out, it's convenient for others. It's just a small thing."

Su Jing had no objection to giving way. The three carriages moved by others were certainly not as fast as her own carriage.

"Niu Yi, please come down with me first."

Su Jing said to Zhu Biao.

"Yes, Master Su."

Zhu Biao nodded and immediately followed Su Jing out of the carriage.

"Thank you, gentlemen."

A man who looked like a housekeeper walked up to Su Jing and thanked her.

Su Jing took the initiative to let go, which made them very happy.

After all, not everyone can give in so calmly.

Road rage was not something Su Jing had in her previous life.

"It's just a small thing, don't worry about it."

Su Jing smiled at the housekeeper, and then took Zhu Biao to the back of the carriage.

Mu Ying controlled the reins in front of her, while Su Jing and Zhu Biao pushed the cart behind.

"one two three!"

"one two three!"

Although the car was heavy, it was successfully moved from the rut.

After all, these three strong young men still have some strength.

"Thank you, sir!"

The housekeeper thanked Su Jing again.

"Little things."

Su Jing waved her hand and then asked, "Where are you going?"

The housekeeper immediately replied: "My master is going to work in Yingtian Mansion."

"Hey, that's a promotion, congratulations!"

Su Jing immediately cupped her hands and said.

If a local official is transferred to the imperial city, it goes without saying that he will definitely be promoted.

Of course, being an official next to Zhu Yuanzhang is not necessarily a good thing.

"I accept the good news from the young master. Please take care of the trouble for the young master."

The butler's speech was really nice, and he didn't make anyone unhappy at all.

The three carriages left one after another, obviously dragging their families with them.

"Okay, now that the people are gone, let's move the car in."

Su Jing said to Mu Ying.

Mu Ying nodded. Going back was much easier than coming out. All she had to do was drive slowly forward and go in.

This was the end of a small episode.

The journey of the three begins again.

In the carriage, Zhu Biao frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking about something.

"What's wrong, Niu Yi, what are you thinking about?"

Su Jing asked.

Zhu Biao replied: "Master Su, I'm wondering, who did we meet just now? It's a bit strange to enter Beijing at this time."

As the crown prince, Zhu Biao knew all about the promotion of officials in the Ming Dynasty.

However, I have been studying next to Su Jing for more than half a year, so I am not as clear as before.

But he still knew the general situation.

There was a local official who was transferred to the imperial city. He really couldn't remember it for a while.

"You think too much. It's just a change of official position. It's normal."

Su Jing smiled and said: "Anyway, he shouldn't be a high-ranking official, otherwise he wouldn't have been transferred at this time. I guess it's because the emperor killed a group of officials before, and now some of them are not enough."

This year, Zhu Yuanzhang carried out a brutal assassination.

The disaster relief grain corruption case, as well as the early outbreak of the empty seal case, caused Zhu Yuanzhang's butcher knife to never stop.

The number of officials in the Ming Dynasty dropped sharply, and they needed to be supplemented everywhere, and the capital was no exception.

"Master Su is right. The Ming Dynasty is indeed in urgent need of officials. If Master Su can enter the imperial court, then the Ming Dynasty will be really blessed."

Zhu Biao said to Su Jing.

He still believed that Su Jing should not just be his teacher, but that he could play his greatest role in the Ming Dynasty.

Su Jing shook her head and said: "Niu Yi, your teacher and I are not that capable, and the court of the Ming Dynasty is really not easy to stay in."

"Don't like staying?"

Zhu Biao was stunned, looked at Su Jing and said, "Master Su, what do you mean by this?"

Even though Su Jing had mentioned many disadvantages of becoming an official before, Zhu Biao believed that they could be changed.

And with Su Jing's ability, the things he said would definitely not happen.

Su Jing smiled and said: "Well, what do you think will happen to that official just now when we come back from Shandong? Has he been promoted? Or has he stayed still? Or has he been demoted or even demoted? jail?"

Um?

Zhu Biao looked at Su Jing with more and more doubts in his eyes.

"Master Su, do you know the person just now?"

Zhu Biao asked.

Su Jing shook her head and said: "Of course I don't know him, so that's what you think."

this……

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "To be called into the capital, he must be someone with outstanding talents. The students thought that this person would be promoted when we come back from Shandong."

"Okay, then let's see what happens to this official? Then you may know why I don't want to go to the Ming Dynasty Hall."

Su Jing said lightly.
