His Majesty personally conquered Goguryeo and was victorious.

Liaodong Province was established!

Through the biography of the flying pigeon and the propaganda of various newspapers, in just a few days, these news have spread all over Hebei Province, Henan Province and Guanzhong.

Needless to say, merchants flocked to the city.

Even some seemingly irrelevant people came to Liaodong City.

"Master, judging from what I have learned in the past two days, the battle of the Tang Dynasty to destroy Goguryeo is much more exciting than what the newspaper says."

In a restaurant in Liaodong City, Guo Dezhi and Guo Yunhe sat by the window while enjoying the lively scene on the street.

As the gold medal storytellers of Wuheju and Ajinomoto Books, Guo Dezhi and Guo Yunhe, the two masters and apprentices, are now regarded as the leaders of the storytelling industry in Chang'an City.

Over the years, with the stability of their status, they no longer appear in person every day, and only come out to talk about it on some special days, or when they have good storytelling materials.

However, this did not damage their reputation, but invisibly improved their godhead.

Even the business of Goiju and Ajinomoto will get better because of their appearance.

As a result, they love their feathers more and more, and are reluctant to say things that have no connotation.

However, although Chang'an City is large, it is not as easy as to find some very interesting stories every day.

When the army led by Li Shimin defeated Goguryeo in Liaodong, and some stories slowly spread through newspapers such as "Datang Daily" and "Chang'an Evening News", Guo Dezhi was keenly aware of a new opportunity.

Go to Liaodong and look for first-hand materials.

Sorting out the various stories of the Tang Dynasty's expedition to Goguryeo can not only meet your storytelling needs for a long time, but also take this opportunity to publish a book.

Guo Dezhi even thought of the title of the book, and it was called "Liaodong Begins with His Majesty's Imperial Expedition".

As for whether this trip will affect Wuheju's business, Guo Dezhi can't manage it so much.

"Yes, now it seems that not only has the army led by His Majesty won a great victory in Liaodong, but His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the chief of the Pyongyang Road marching army, has not made a small contribution at all. Even his actions in Pyongyang are even more charismatic and magical, which can give us storytellers a lot of room to play. But it's a pity that until now, we can only ask some ordinary soldiers for news, and it would be great if we could communicate with the generals who directly commanded the army. ”

Guo Dezhi is full of expectations for this trip to Liaodong.

Judging by the first few days, the situation was also very satisfactory to him.

"Master, in fact, with your reputation in Chang'an City, all the generals in the army who come from Chang'an should have heard your name. Otherwise, let's find one of the most famous restaurants in Liaodong City, and then tell stories there every afternoon, through which we can meet some new magnates in Liaodong City, or see if we can find someone we know on this occasion? More material for our new book. ”

When Guo Yunhe was in Chang'an City? It's also kind of getting to know some people.

And as Guo Dezhi, who has been in the industry for a longer time? Naturally, there are also their own regular customers.

This relationship is relatively weak though? If you ask someone to help you with something, what's important? Basically unreliable.

But what if you just simply ask for some stories? That's still quite possible.

"Feeling a little weird though? But you can really give it a try. ”

Guo Dezhi feels that he has left Chang'an City? is to find the material for storytelling, and for his own "Liaodong Begins with His Majesty's Imperial Expedition".

Now the reverse for these things? I want to tell stories in Liaodong City again.

"Huh? Then let's go and inquire after dinner and take a look at the city of Liaodong? Which restaurant is the most famous? We'll go wherever we go. ”

Guo Yunhe was not worried that he would be rejected at all.

In fact, the Tang people in Liaodong City are now completely the existence that the Goguryeo people dare not provoke.

When the newly established police station handled the case, what other people sued the Tang people? Regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, I'll give you a meal first.

No way? The hierarchical system in Liaodong is different from that in other places.

If people of other ranks want to be higher than the first-class Tang people, they have to bear a board first.

If you don't want to be beaten, then you don't have to tell it.

……

Jintai's third uncle, Jin Hua, is a down-and-out literati who missed the best opportunity to invest in Jintai's iron shop, which makes people regret it.

However, for the sake of Jinhua being his only surviving elder, Mrs. Jin still cares about him very much.

Some of the paperwork in Jintai's iron workshop was handed over to Jinhua to be responsible, and he was given a very generous salary.

This time, Master Jin Tai's apprentice came all the way to Liaodong to start the semicolon, and Jinhua also came with him.

However, in the early days of the workshop, there was no paperwork to be handled by Jinhua.

So in the past few days, Jinhua has been wandering around Liaodong City.

Although Jinhua is a little idle, with low eyes, he still has a little talent.

"Xin'er, have you noticed that there are a lot of foreign merchants in Liaodong City during this time, and they are very eager to know everything about Liaodong City and even the entire Liaodong; I was just in front of several grocery stores when I heard someone ask if there were any newspapers for sale. ”

Although Jinhua is a literati, he wants to get rich and is about to go crazy.

For the only son, he directly named Jin Xin.

After finishing elementary school in the free primary school sent to Jintai's workshop, Jinhua stuffed Jin Xin into Jintai's iron shop and asked him to help run the business, which is called "sharing the burden for his nephew".

"Aye, isn't this a normal thing? These merchants came to Liaodong, of course, to make money; And if you want to make money, you naturally have to know more about the situation in Liaodong; Other people who came to Liaodong City with various purposes also had this need. ”

When Jin Xin ran the business, he was quite clever, but he was focused on promoting the products of Jin Tai's Iron Workshop, but he didn't have any other thoughts to consider anything else.

"I noticed that the Datang Daily only costs a penny a copy in Chang'an City, but in Liaodong City, it costs five pennies a copy, and it is often in short supply. The news above was more than ten days ago, but it was still so popular. Xin'er, you said that if Aya created a newspaper in Liaodong City, would it be possible to sell it at a good price? ”

Jinhua has been stumbling for so many years, and he is also reflecting on what he has done.

Now that he suddenly found such a business opportunity, he couldn't help but throw it out to discuss with his son.

"Huh?" Jin Xin stopped and stared at himself Aye, "Aye, you have a good idea, I will propose to my eldest brother in a moment and let him consider opening a newspaper." ”

"Huh?" Jin Hua was stunned for a moment, "Aya means that our father and son opened a newspaper by themselves, why should we let Mrs. Jin do it?" He's already so rich, and he's not bad for the newspaper's money. Besides, when I was in Chang'an City before, I wasn't allowed to read "Datang Daily", "Chang'an Evening News", "Qujiang Daily", and "Moon Daily" every day? None of you have any experience with me. ”

Jinhua finally found a business opportunity to make money, and naturally he didn't want to miss it.

Although his own talent is relatively limited, because he reads the newspaper and drinks tea every day, he has a little understanding of newspaper layout, article writing and other things.

He even contributed to "Datang Daily".

"Aye, you actually read the Moon?"

"Smack!"

Jin Hua's face turned red, but he immediately slapped Jin Xin on the head, and said a little annoyed: "Grasp the point, I mean we can open a newspaper quickly." The scale doesn't need to be very large, and there is no need to say how advanced the writing is, as long as you simply sort out what has happened in Liaodong in the past year and what happens every day in Liaodong City and publish it in the newspaper. ”

"Aya, are you serious?"

"Nonsense! Or what do you think? ”

"If you really have this idea, then I support you!"

Jin Xin stared at Jin Hua's face for a while, making sure that his unreliable father seemed to be serious this time.

In this way, his attitude towards running a newspaper has naturally changed.

There are dozens of newspapers in Chang'an City, large and small, and if you don't have much ambition, running a newspaper is not particularly difficult.

The difficulty is how to ensure the long-term survival of the newspaper while ensuring its influence.

"Okay, then I'll go to Mrs. Jin to help guarantee it in a while, and go directly to the Datang Royal Money House to borrow a sum of money. When I was just passing by, I had already seen that the branch of the Datang Royal Money Village in Liaodong City had already opened, and there must be a lot of discounts there to attract everyone to borrow. ”

Jinhua still wants a little face, and he didn't directly say that he wanted to ask Mrs. Jin or borrow it.

In fact, if he had been thick-skinned, Mrs. Jin would not have really given him a share of the workshop.

"Yes! However, the opening of the newspaper is not so easy, in addition to finding the branch of the Datang Press and Publication Administration in Liaodong for review, we also have to invite a number of craftsmen to buy a batch of equipment. Liaodong is in ruins, and it is likely that the paper on which newspapers are printed may not be guaranteed. Also, the "Datang Daily" has a group of writers to ensure that there are good articles and good news every day, if Aye wants to do it, these need to be considered in advance. ”

"So I'll have to find Kinta later. Let's go to get a newspaper, in fact, it is also good for the Jintai Iron Workshop. We can even call the name of the newspaper "Jintai Daily". ”

Jinhua seems to have relied on Mrs. Jin and feels that he must find a way to realize this dream, which is more important than anything else.

"Aye, forget it, you are still called "Liaodong Daily". We focus on the news that occurs in Liaodong, introduce the customs, climate and environment of Liaodong, and at the same time sort out and publish the stories that happened in the siege battles of various cities this year. Even if we sell it for ten cents, some people will ask for it. ”

Jin Xin's brain is very flexible, and after making up his mind to support Aya to start a newspaper, he immediately had some ideas.

Obviously, following the path of a big newspaper like "Datang Daily" will definitely not work in a short period of time.

Now that I have found that many people are interested in things in Liaodong, I will write about things that everyone is interested in.

I'll do what readers like.

Jin Xin felt that this should be the purpose of the "Liaodong Daily".

"That's right, when the time comes, our "Liaodong Daily" will definitely become a well-known newspaper for the people of Liaodong, bringing huge profits to our gold price family. Maybe when the time comes, Jin Tai's iron shop will have to spend money to advertise on our "Liaodong Daily". ”

The more Jin Hua spoke, the more excited he became, as if he had successfully started a newspaper.

After reading the newspaper for so many years, Jinhua has a deep understanding of the influence of the newspaper.

"Okay, or don't do it, do it as soon as possible. The eldest brother has now chosen the address for the workshop to be built, and he rarely comes back to live during this time. We can first find a small courtyard in the house and use it as the office location of the "Liaodong Daily" first. As for the manuscript, I think Aya you can write part of it yourself, and then we will pay someone to write part of it, and then we will consider hiring a dedicated writer later. ”

Jin Xin is obviously very aware of the entrepreneurial situation that Aya is facing now, and knows that small investment, fast output, rolling development, and daring to be the first in the world will be the development opportunity of "Liaodong Daily".

Otherwise, in less than two months, there may be newspapers such as "Liaodong Evening News", "Liaodong Daily", and "Northern Daily" in Liaodong City, squeezing out the living space of "Liaodong Daily".

"My son's plan is very much to my liking, so I will do it! Don't go shopping now, hurry up and find Mrs. Jin to help us gualate, and go to the branch of Datang Royal Money Bank to borrow a sum of money. ”

After Jinhua finished speaking, he turned around and walked back.

The fast-paced Liaodong City gave him a feeling that he was not waiting for me.

He is over 40 years old and has a new year.

……

"Lord Wang, the speed at which this Liaodong City recovers is much faster than I imagined."

On the avenue of Liaodong City, Wang Xuance followed behind Li Kuan, paying attention to everything around him with a little emotion.

It stands to reason that after the war, it should be the people's livelihood that is regulated and the business withered.

But the situation in Liaodong City is completely different.

If the spring servant thinks about the spring, it is estimated that he will be very depressed in his heart.

"Liaodong City has been captured for more than two months, and the damage caused by the war inside is relatively limited. Nowadays, there are a large number of merchants from Yingzhou and Youzhou, as well as various people from Chang'an and other places, which are naturally lively. A place, as long as it has commercial value, will attract people to come and will be lively. Look at that Dengzhou, it was not cold before, but now? ”

After all, Liaodong has more than two million people, and Liaodong City, the largest city in Liaodong, has a population of more than 200,000.

Nowadays, there is a steady stream of people entering every day, and the army of the Tang Dynasty is still stationed here, and the actual population has reached 300,000.

Don't think that 300,000 is less, think that any prefecture-level city in the future will have a population of more than one million, and even the population in some counties will already exceed one million.

However, in the case of the early Tang Dynasty, the city of 300,000 was definitely a big city.

"Beep! Beep! ”

At this moment, a sharp whistle sounded from the mouth of the policeman patrolling nearby.

I saw a man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks running quickly into the crowd, while two policemen were in hot pursuit.

Further back, a Tang man-like figure shouted, "My money bag, my money bag has been stolen!" Catch the thief! ”

"Lord Wang, do you want to go over and help?"

Wang Xuanwu saw Li Kuan stop, thinking that he wanted to be righteous and brave.

"No, someone has already made a move!"

As soon as Li Kuan's words fell, the man who escaped was jointly taken down by several passers-by.

Surprisingly, these passers-by are obviously Goguryeo, and the thief-like figure is also a Goguryeo.

"This police station has selected a group of people from among the captives of the Murowei and the Murwei and the Evil Warriors to be policemen, and it is really a good move. The enthusiasm of these people to patrol seems to be higher than anyone else's. Especially in the case involving the Tang people, these people are more active than anyone else. ”

Although the police headquarters was under Li Kuan's control, Li Kuan did not interfere too much in the establishment of the police station in Liaodong City.

However, judging from the current situation, Ma Zhou's arrangement is very appropriate.

"Actually, if you want me to say, it is still the hierarchy system you set up for Liaodong Dao, which is of extraordinary significance. In order to be able to make meritorious contributions and rise to the ranks, these Goguryeo people were more ruthless than anyone else in dealing with their own compatriots. Now these Goguryeo people can't wait for their compatriots around them to make mistakes, and then report them themselves, to uphold justice, and then smoothly change from the fourth class to the third class and then to the second class, so as to achieve a leap in class. ”

Wang Xuance also saw the scene that had just happened.

Today's Liaodong City, although the number of Goguryeo people is still the largest, but the right to speak is firmly in the hands of the Tang people.

Many "smart" Goguryeo people have begun to choose to hug their thighs.

Even some Goguryeo people directly chose to sell themselves into slavery.

As long as you choose the right owner, being a slave is more comfortable than being a Goguryeo in Liaodong.

"This mechanism of class change requires a strict household registration system to cooperate. Otherwise, it will be difficult to distinguish the difference between different people, and it will be difficult to strictly implement this system. Xuan Ce, go back to the police station, explain to the police station the management method of ID cards we discussed earlier, and ask them to try to issue an ID card to all personnel in Liaodong City to strengthen the management of personnel. ”

As a newly incorporated city into the arms of Datang, it is necessary to accurately manage it, avoid some people with ulterior motives from making trouble, and implement a strict household registration management system.

Although these systems may cause some inconvenience to the movement of people, the impact is very limited.

Because as a first-class Tang person, in fact, in most cases, they can rely on brushing their faces to run rampant in Liaodong City.

After all, the Turks, the Murwei and the Taya have a significantly different appearance from the Tang people.

And most of the Goguryeo people have a temperament that is not quite the same as that of the Tang people.

"No problem, I'll go to the police station this afternoon. In fact, they are already doing similar work. The Liaodong Production and Construction Corps has now selected an area outside the city as the first target for land reclamation, and many Goguryeo slaves have begun to distribute it to the soldiers as rewards. Their household registration also fell directly on the heads of the soldiers. ”

Although Li Kuan didn't pay too much attention to the changes in Liaodong City, Wang Xuance was different.

He's talking about what happened to me in Liaodong City all the time.

It is precisely because of Wang Xuance by his side that Li Kuan can be a shopkeeper with peace of mind.

"Well, the development of the Production and Construction Corps is the top priority, and now Xue Li is in charge of this business, so you can give him some advice when you have time. After a while, a group of students from Guanshishan Academy will also join the corps, and more and more personnel from various workshops will come. ”

Wang Xuance has also been busy enough over the years, and Li Kuan also sees it in his eyes.

For the sake of long-term thinking, it is also time to develop some new talents.

The students of Guanshishan Academy are naturally the best choice.

"Lord Wang, don't worry, with Wang Fugui to help coordinate, in fact, I basically don't need to worry too much about things in the workshop; On the contrary, on the side of Chang'an City, judging from the information collected recently, it seems that the situation has changed a little, and the prince should have made arrangements as soon as possible. ”

After Li Shimin's personal expedition, Li Chengqian, the crown prince, made some small moves.

In addition, Li Tai is not covered by Li Shimin's father, and his strength has been greatly reduced.

But he didn't take Li Chengqian, the prince of the prison state, in his eyes at all, and the atmosphere in Chang'an City was inexplicably weird.

Li Chengqian, who is a little inflated, is already a little unbearable Li Tai.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy, no matter who it is, it can't set off any storms."

Li Shimin, as always, did not express his position, which made Wang Xuance very anxious.

However, he had no choice but to collect as much information as possible to avoid the Chu Palace's passive situation.

"Liaodong Daily, the freshly baked Liaodong Daily, ten cents a copy, one newspaper to read all the major events in Liaodong!"

"The new issue of Datang Daily has arrived! Come and see, come and see! ”

"Cooking cakes, big cooking cakes for a penny!"

"Yuelai Inn opens with a big reward, and you can enjoy a 50% discount on your first stay!"

"In heaven and on earth, only you can't think of it, and there is nothing we can't do. A new batch of eunuch women came to Yihong Mansion. ”

Listening to the various noises that kept drifting in his ears, Li Kuan felt the vitality of Liaodong City.

With the Liaodong Production and Construction Corps, Cheng Chuliang and Qin Shandao in control of the northern barrier of Liaodong Road, the Chu Wangfu can take Liaodong Road as a new development focus.

If something happens to him in the future, he can also have a place to move.

After all, it's better to have one more option than to be in a hurry.

Li Kuan also does not want to become a day when he can only live overseas.

That's not the life he wants.
