Chapter Ninety-One: Blocking the Road
After going out to say hello, Shi Yue followed with an axe. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Su Mo thought about it, he was walking around the city today, and there was no remote place, so he waved his hand so that Shi Yue didn't have to follow.
Then he went out so leisurely and walked straight to the city.
Fengshui development is now basically completed, mainly because of cement, a building weapon. It's not like the skyscrapers that move at every turn in later generations, all of them are small bungalows, which are very fast.
Before the imperial court clearly determined the exclusive right to use cement, the cement on Fengshui's side could be vigorously produced, and even the roads were smoothed with cement. Therefore, the Fengshui River is extremely lively today. People and cars come and go, and the noise is even worse than in the east and west cities of the city.
Looking at this noisy scene, Su Mo's heart was full of relief. This can be regarded as a small town built by himself.,No wonder those cultivation games in later generations are quite marketable.,It really has a unique charm.ć
walked all the way, and went to Zhao Fengzhi's house first. As a result, General Tie opened the door and estimated that it was Shangya. Seeing that there is another month, it is the township test, and Zhao Fengzhi, who is in charge of this part, is busy with the top spot.
After thinking about it, he turned around and went to Zhang's house and He's house. Anyway, in the end, I have to go to the county government to visit Pang Shiyan, and since Mr. Zhao is in the yamen, it is just time to visit together.
Before leaving the two families, I turned a corner and went to Sihailou and the bookstore first. Sun Sihai of Sihai Building was full of admiration and excitement, and the leaders came to inspect it.
Now Sun Sihai's machine well business has already made Wuqing County, not only gradually extending to neighboring cities, but also beginning to penetrate into the capital, which can bring Su Mo a few hundred taels of income every month. Honeycomb coal and stoves have also begun to become popular, after all, honeycomb coal can not only heat the stove, but also cook rice and boil water. The use of stoves and honeycomb coal also saves money for firewood, and it is clean and fast, so there is naturally a big market.
In this way, with a piece of honeycomb coal in the furnace, a piece of the machine well, and some income from Fengshui, Su Mo will almost have nearly a thousand taels of income every month.
At this level, it was barely considered a middle class in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, it is also worthy to be called a Su official and a Su member.
When Su Mo was leaving, he told him that he could slowly start expanding the restaurant business at the same time. Su Mo has not forgotten his original intention, information! No matter what he does, information is absolutely primary!
Sun Sihai was overjoyed and was busy responding. After all, the restaurant business is his foundation and what he is most familiar with.
When he arrived at the bookstore, Zhang Wenmo held on to him as soon as he saw him, and complained: "Words, you said before that my bookstore would be able to make great achievements in the future, but now you look at it, what else is there besides the newspaper you made? And that newspaper alone, in addition to making me busy, the income is almost negligible." What kind of advertisement you are talking about, when you don't need money, some people are willing to do it, but once you ask for money, they don't do it. Alas, if this continues, I will close the door now. ā
Su Mo thought for a while and said with a smile: "Brother Wenmo, you definitely can't do this. What is the real power of newspapers? It is to create momentum and information! Newspapers can create momentum for people and events, and expand the influence and popularity of people or things. In addition, this is the information, just as you always sell some famous people before every scientific examination, there is a reason, and there will be a market when needed. The word "information" also falls on this. ā
Zhang Wenmo listened to the trance, but he just realized it, and he still didn't have it. I had to look at Su Mo with a bitter face.
Su Mo sighed and said, "In this way, you find someone to find those scholars and candidates and make an appointment with them." It is said that as long as their poetry and essays are selected, they will be paid a certain amount. Or one or two or two, you look at this. And then every ten days a list is launched, well, this list is called ...... It's called Wenbang. Every time the top ten are selected on the literary list, of course, you also need to find some famous artists to comment on these poems, this I think you can find your old man, with his face, it should be no problem. ā
Zhang Wenmo nodded, this is not a problem. Not to mention the old man Zhang Yue, even he Zhang Wenmo also knows a few people.
Su Mo said: "Well, do you think, these literati have not only gained fame and profit through your newspaper, can they still desperately support your newspaper? Besides, since ancient times, literati have been light, this time he won the first place, and the next few can be convinced? I will definitely think about fighting again next time." In this way, as the influence grows, the position of your newspaper in the literary world will become more and more solid, and finally form a stereotype. And when you have this status, then take advantage of the trend to launch a contest or something, invite the top three of the previous literary lists to compete, and then take out the name of the competition and choose a business to name it. When the time comes, the contest will be crowned with the xxx poetry contest, won't it have a great impact on their industry publicity? You can even write some words for the merchants who have obtained the naming rights to introduce their industries and businesses. Do you think, with this kind of publicity, their business can be bad? As long as one person gets the sweetness, the next time the competition is held, and he wants the naming rights or something, then he has to compete with real money, and the one with the highest price wins. In this way, won't your newspaper be completely alive? With your fame and profit, can you be regarded as having made great achievements? And as the sponsor of this newspaper, Brother Zhang Wenmo and Zhang, who will not know your great name in the world?"
As soon as Su Mo Balabala passed, Zhang Wenmo listened to it as if he had drunk the elixir and jade liquid, and his mind was full of scenes of his own success, and he was dizzy and didn't know what day it was. In the end, all that was left was a smirk and a nod.
Su Mo didn't wake him up, turned around and walked away leisurely. After getting Zhang Wenmo, it's time to go to the Zhang and He families.
All the way north along the street, just as I was about to walk to the entrance of the East Market, I suddenly saw a large group of people in the middle of the street.
There was a lot of noise inside, apparently someone was arguing. Su Mo was bored, so he shook over, looked through the cracks in the person, and suddenly saw a face, and was immediately stunned, and muttered, "Why is he?"
In the middle of the road were two groups of people holding each other, and the one with his back to Su Mo was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old nobleman, who was born like Fu Fan and was suave and graceful. Holding an ivory-handled folding fan in his hand, dressed in brocade, he was followed by seven or eight people dressed as housekeepers.
Across from him, a dozen people gathered around a carriage. Who sat in the carriage didn't know, but standing at the front, his face flushed, and the man who looked like a bull was an acquaintance.
The third son of the Ma family, Ma Donglai.
Today's appearance of Ma Donglai is obviously a little haggard compared to the day of the Dragon Boat Festival. Presumably, the blow that day was too great to recover. However, the bullish virtue is still the same, and it has not diminished at all.
At this moment, facing the noble prince and his party blocking the way, Ma Sangongzi was roaring angrily, loudly warning the other party to give way.
Su Mo looked amused, seeing that his eyes were aimed at the entourage behind the noble man from time to time, with obvious vigilance in his eyes, obviously afraid that the other party would be rude. This appearance is just four words: lust and guilt.
But the donkey refused to fall, no matter how angry and scared he was in his heart, he was holding his neck strongly, but he was honestly standing in the middle of a group of Ma family, and he didn't dare to take half a step forward.
The noble boy always smiled and groaned, ignoring him, only looking at the carriage, shaking the folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile in his mouth: "I said that beauty, this son has traveled thousands of miles, and chased all the way to the north, how can it be regarded as infatuation." Isn't it too heartless to hide in the carriage and refuse to see each other now?"
He said slowly, completely unhurried, obviously Zhizhu was in his hands, and he was sure that the prey would not be able to escape from his palm.
The people in the carriage were still silent, but Ma Donglai was trembling with anger.
This is the second time that I have been ignored! The first time is that damn Su Mo, although he was scolded as a wild dog, but wild dogs also have dog personality, and they finally entered the human eye;
But this time, this bastard who popped out of nowhere was so proud that he had no score. Suddenly came out to block everyone's way, not to mention, from beginning to end, he didn't look at himself directly. It's so humiliating. If it weren't for the fact that the entourage following behind this person didn't look easy to mess with, Ma Sangongzi would have wanted to yell and start fighting.
But this patience has a limit after all, isn't it? Even if you scold us a few words, you can still give Third Young Master Ma a sense of existence.
The most important thing is that this time Ma Sanshao is completely in charge. I waited for the others to go well, but these people suddenly stopped them on the street, and arrogantly insisted that the female relatives in the car get out of the car to meet each other, which is simply unreasonable.
"You foreign barbarians, are you bullying us and no one in Wuqing? Forcibly robbing female dependents in broad daylight, where is the heavenly reason? Where is the royal law?" This kid can be regarded as having brains, and he knows how to incite the people.
Sure enough, when he shouted, the people of Wuqing who were watching around became a little commotion. The buzzing discussion was endless, and many people pointed at the noble son, and even tentatively made a loud noise.
The noble son was finally moved, frowned slightly, and waved his hand behind him. The servants behind him walked out of the middle board, their cold eyes swept coldly, and then shouted loudly: "The Wei State Mansion is doing business, and the idlers are scattered!"
After drinking, he waved his hand again, and several people behind him immediately divided into two groups. rushed directly to the Ma family, ignoring the screams of the crowd, and knocked him to the ground with three punches and two kicks.
The other group of people came over to the onlookers, and the bluffing crowd hurriedly retreated. When he heard that the other party was actually the prince of the country, how could he dare to stay?
Su Mo frowned, these people from the Wei State Mansion are really domineering! But this kind of temper is quite against Su Mo's appetite, originally, the two are right, and it is useless to be crooked?
If it weren't for the fact that he was one of the expelled members now, he would be willing to make friends with the other party with this personality.
But for now, he can only retreat temporarily, after all, this is the Ma family's business, and he has nothing to do with Su Mo. He can't even see the excitement, how can he go out of this.
As the crowd retreated, the car finally reacted. But when the curtain was raised, a figure curled down. Moth frowned slightly, looked at the noble son and opened his mouth: "Little grandfather, isn't it too much to affect the innocent like this." ā
This voice sounded, and as soon as this figure appeared, Su Mo's backward steps were immediately stunned. Huo Ran turned around, stared at it, and couldn't help but change color suddenly.
