The literary essay contest, from the announcements and publicity of various buildings to the great help of Oiran everywhere, and then to the next wave of propaganda in the newspapers, it immediately became popular.

Ancient people were too lacking in entertainment life, combining entertainment with the literary world, coupled with a model that transcended the times, it was difficult not to be popular.

There are also a lot of registration points, such as the 72 famous buildings in Tokyo, all of which are registration places, or you can also sign up at the editorial office of the Beijing Times.

Cai Jing, who has become famous recently, didn't want to miss such an opportunity, so he went to report his life early and submitted several of his articles for registration.

Gan Qi took a group of students to start the preliminary sorting work, there were thousands of articles on the first day, the audition work was very cumbersome, and several nominal judges actually didn't have time, only Su Xun had more time.

Gan Qi asked Su Xun to find a group of old scholars to audition the article, and Gan Qi participated in it if he had nothing to do.

Looking at them one by one, in the dark, Wu Chengwu was also helping on the side. It's a pity that Su Shi and Su Zhe's brothers are not there, otherwise this kind of work is the most suitable for the two brothers.

In the midst of fatigue, there was a surprise, looking at it, Gan Qi suddenly took the case: "Hongzhou Huang Tingjian, it's really a good word." ”

The handwriting is good, but this name surprised Gan Qi even more, and Huang Tingjian entered Beijing.

Su Xun, who was not far away, leaned his head over to look at it when he heard this, and nodded: "It's really a good word." ”

After looking at it for a while, Su Xun said again: "The article is not bad, "The Book of Youfang Pavilion", there is the style of Daojian's "Qiu Lan Fu" in the past, this article is desirable. ”

Gan Qi looked up at Su Xun, and suddenly remembered that Huang Tingjian was one of the four scholars of Sumen, that is to say, Huang Tingjian should have been Su Xun's protégé disciple, this is a good story, in the future, Huang Tingjian and Su Shi will be called Su Huang, and he is a leading figure in the literary circle of the Great Song Dynasty in the following decades. Huang Tingjian was also one of the four great calligraphers of the Northern Song Dynasty, and even later generations ranked him alongside Du Fu.

Gan Qi was ready to accomplish this matter, so he said: "This son is extraordinary, how about Mr. Su take him under his door?" ”

Su Xun waved his hand and said: "Now that Dao Jian's name is shaking the world, this son and I, it's a pity, if Dao Jian likes it, you might as well take him into the door." ”

Gan Qi smiled when he heard this, but nodded: "It's okay, and look at his creation." ”

The audition continued, and it continued, and Gan Qi took the case again: "Qin Guan Qin Shaoyou? Impossible, right? Shouldn't this son still be in Gaoyou? Why did you enter Beijing? ”

Su Xun tilted his head to look at it again, and his face was happy: "Good words, good words, as soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless people in the world, this son is very talented!" Eh...... The latter sentence is better, if the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight, this song, when the crown of Bianliang City, Dao Jian, this sub-lyrics, comparable to my son. ”

Gan Qi looked at Su Xun's excited appearance and laughed: "Mr. Su, how about taking this son under the door?" ”

Su Xun waved his hand again and again: "It's a pity for me to have this son, when you let Dao Jian train me, Dao Jian is also good at filling in words, this son is with you, and the creation is not small." ”

"What's so embarrassing?" Gan Qi is really a little embarrassed, Qin Guan Qin Shaoyou, also one of the four bachelors of Sumen, the originator of the Wanyue faction, the husband of Su Xiaomei in later legends, of course, Su Xiaomei is a fake, and she is a peerless scholar.

"Eh, I'm old, I don't want to do this, Dao Jian has a heart for talent, and I'm an old man who is still blindly mixed with something." Su Xun smiled.

"I'm a little embarrassed." Ganchi said, smiling and nodding. He turned his head and shouted: "Quick, send the poems and articles of Huang Luzhi and Qin Shaoyou to the printing house quickly, expedite printing, and release them tomorrow." ”

Someone else will do the errands. The audition continued, and from time to time someone took the case, this great Song Dynasty is really at the peak of its literary style.

The Beijing Times has just come out, and countless people have been waiting for a long time, waiting to buy newspapers, and whether they enter the audition depends on this experience.

The child who sold the newspaper was surrounded by many readers on the spot, and the child kept shouting: "The newspaper has added several pages, the price has risen, the price has risen, four dollars and four dollars ......."

"Whatever, hurry."

Many scholars have no moments, that is, each person has a copy in hand, turning page by page, just to find the name of their own article, as if looking at the emperor list outside the Donghua Gate.

There are countless people who are disappointed.

"Fujian Cai Jing, when I think about it, his name is indispensable...... It's still close to the water to get the moon first, and worshipping Gan Xianggong as a teacher will have such benefits. ”

"Don't be so sour, Cai Jingwen is not bad, otherwise he would not be accepted by Gan Xianggong."

"That'...... So who is this Huang Tingjian? And this Qin Shaoyou, why did they report it when they said that they were nameless? I also have a bit of a big name in this Bianliang City......"

"Brother Tai will take a closer look and then read the article carefully, Huang Tingjian's "The Story of the Book of Youfang Pavilion" is really excellent. Qin Shaoyou's poem, there is also Gan Xianggong's comment below, you see, Mr. Gan said that he had never heard such a masterpiece this year, which can be called the first in the second year of Zhiping. ”

"I'll see...... Belch...... This son is lucky, I ...... Anyway, I'm just not convinced. ”

"It's okay if you don't accept it, tonight Fan Lou, Huang Luzhi and Qin Shaoyou have a special literary meeting, they have already started canvassing, let's go together."

"Let's go, it's to see, now cats and dogs are all emerging......"

The crowd read the newspaper and walked together.

There were also children on the side of the road shouting: "Bianliang Times, Bianliang Times, as long as one money, as long as one money, Luoyang Cheng Yi is a masterpiece, Luoyang Cheng Yi is a masterpiece." ”

"Childe, do you want to buy a newspaper? Bianliang Times ......"

"Go and go, don't get in the way, what Luoyang Chengyi, can he still write articles? Side to go. ”

The child was crying and mournful, and he was looking at a large number of literati here, so he came forward to sell the newspaper, but he didn't expect to be driven away.

There was also a child on the side, hehe was laughing: "Liuding, you say you are not stupid, what do you sell Bianliang Times, if you want to sell it, you can sell it in Jinghua Times, you see, more than 60 copies, sold out in the blink of an eye, I have to go back and get some more." ”

"I ...... It was someone who gave me money and asked me to sell it, how do I know, I went home to find my mother, and if I don't sell it, I will also sell the Beijing Times. ”

"You go back and tell your mother, if you want to sell newspapers again, you come to me, I will take you to get the Beijing Times, you have to bring money."

"My mother is reluctant to give me money."

"Not really...... You come to me, I'll lend you some newspapers first, you help me sell them, and then I'll give you the money. ”

"Okay."

In the boudoir of a young lady in a large family, several girls who had not left the pavilion gathered together and looked at the newspaper that the little maid had just bought from outside.

"Cousin, look, this Gaoyou Qin Guan Qin Shaoyou's "Queqiao Immortal" is really well filled......"

"The clouds are clever, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is dark. As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world. Tenderness is like water, the best period is like a dream, and you can endure the return of the Magpie Bridge. If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight? Good, that's nice......"

"Cousin, I don't know how old this Qin Shaoyou is and what he looks like......"

"You little girl, isn't it Sichun?"

"Cousin, I think...... He can write such words of love and love, and he thinks that he will not be very old at that time. ”

"Don't think about it......"

"Cousin, I heard that Fan Lou has a special literary meeting for Qin Shaoyou tonight."

"Do you still want to go? How can you and I go to such a place? If you look at his words, you obviously have a ...... in mind."

"Isn't it okay to go for a meal?"

"Don't think nonsense, after you leave the cabinet, you won't be married, but don't run around and tarnish your reputation. When you become someone's wife, it doesn't hurt to go and have a meal. ”

"Alas......"

"It's okay, my brother is going to go back to Fanlou tonight, I'll let my brother show you, and I'll come back and tell you when the time comes."

"Okay, go look for my brother, I'm afraid I'll go out when it's too late."

……

Cheng Yi came to the capital and rented to live in Xicheng, and the people of Luoyang came to Bianliang and liked to live in Xicheng, probably because Luoyang was originally in the west of Bianliang, and entering Bianliang was Xicheng.

Cheng Yi's rented place is also the editorial office of the Bianliang Times, and he has been really busy recently, and he is busy before and after his feet do not touch the ground, and it is really not easy to run a newspaper well.

Now the newspaper's affairs are finally on the right track, some people are in charge of articles, some people are in charge of printing, some people are responsible for asking people to sell, and some people are responsible for reading everywhere, and they have learned the whole set of operating procedures of the Beijing Times.

The next step is to go to the various buildings to talk, the buildings are the places where the literati gather, and sell some on consignment, or let the buildings order some for free to show the guests.

But fortunately, there are people behind him, if he relies on Cheng Yi himself, he wants to do so many things as an outsider, it is impossible every few months.

Today, he had just finished his work and returned to his residence to sit down, when someone came in and said, "Brother Cheng, it's not good, it's not good." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Brother Cheng, yesterday's newspaper sold more than 3,000 copies, but today it was strange, only 400 copies were sold, and they were all returned, saying that they couldn't be sold. There are also people we sent to read newspapers in various teahouses, and many people have been kicked out. ”

"Why? Isn't Gan Daojian using some low-level means? Cheng Yi asked.

"I only heard that all the teahouses and tiles everywhere heard about the Beijing Times, what essay conference is being held by the Beijing Times recently, and every newspaper has been thickened a lot, it is endless, and it is not our turn to read, and the Beijing Times has serialized a script, which is so lengthy that when they finish reading, the guests are gone."

"What essay conference?"

"Brother Cheng, do you want the younger brother to buy a copy of the Beijing Times and come back and study it?"

"It's okay, know yourself and know your opponent, buy a copy and come back to see."

Before dusk arrived, Fan Lou was already overcrowded, today Gan Qi personally arrived, and invited Feng Jing as well, Su Xun was naturally there, Ouyang Xiu and Zeng Gongliang were busy with business, and did not come, but it was enough.

Today is also the first time Gan Qi has seen Huang Tingjian and Qin Shaoyou, and he has sent someone to contact him, Huang Tingjian, a twenty-one or twelve-year-old chubby young man, has a smile on his face all the time, and he looks a little cute.

But Qin Shaoyou is different, he looks seventeen or eighteen years old, his face is red and his teeth are white, he is very handsome, and he is full of spirit between his gestures.

The two of them saw Gan Qi, a big gift, and after Gan Qi returned the salute, he said something about the scene: "Since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth, and today I saw the two, it is really extraordinary, not bad." ”

Young Master Qin raised his head slightly, looking informal, and also a young man's free and easy nature, and replied: "Praise the public, the student is just starting out, and he only wants to see the world." ”

Huang Tingjian was much calmer, and bowed: "I don't deserve to be praised by Mr." ”

"Today's cultural meeting, I will personally host for the two of you, you just indulge in your passions, show your Chinese talents, and also make more friends with others and pull more votes." Gan Qi personally presided over it, which was the biggest promotion for the two.

Hearing this, the two hurriedly bowed again.

Fan Lou is also preparing, eating at the banquet, melons and fruits, Yun Jin'er is slowly dressing up in the mirror, and the girls everywhere are also gearing up.

Tonight, Fan Lou, front and back, is full, and in the backyard Yayuan hall, all the tables and chairs that can be put down are full.

As soon as Gan Xianggong came out, the audience got up and bowed: "Meet Gan Xianggong." ”

Gan Qi waved his hand, motioned for everyone to sit down, and had already spoken: "On the second day of this primary election, all of you have not finished reading your articles, and you have already produced two great talents. When the article list is published tomorrow, there will be a special session in Yuxian Tower, please remember to come. ”

"Thank you for lifting up the juniors."

"The prime minister is selfless, and we will take this opportunity to show our talents."

"Xiang Gong Wende, teach people to admire."

"The heart of love for talents can be seen this time!"

Gan Qi smiled, what he wanted was this effect, everyone knew that he was willing to love and cherish talents, and he did not hesitate to give all the talents in the world a chance, and he would spare no effort to elevate them, such a selfless person is rare in ancient and modern times.

Gan Qi didn't say much, and turned his head: "Please Hongzhou Huang Tingjian, Huang Luzhi, and Gaoyou Qin Guan Qin Shaoyou ......"

Huang Tingjian and Qin Guan came to the stage and bowed their hands everywhere.

Yun Jin'er has already come out and started singing, first singing Qin Shaoyou's "Queqiao Immortal", and then singing Huang Tingjian's "Qingping Le", and then let people read the articles of the two, and then show their poetic talents.

The event has already been planned.

After that, the two of them will come to the stage again and talk to everyone, Fan Louyun and everyone will also prepare some questions to ask the two, this is a live interview, Yun Jiner is the host, this kind of thing is also Gan Qi's first creation.

After arriving, they will also ask everyone in the audience to fill in the words, although it is not a competition, it also means a competition, Huang Tingjian and Qin Shaoyou are the champions, accepting the challenges of others.

As soon as tonight passes, the two of them will become famous in one fell swoop.

As long as the two become famous, Ganqi's essay conference will be more popular, attracting more talented people to participate.

The matter of bringing the two of them into the door is also done tonight, Sumen Bachelor, became Ganmen Bachelor, this Song Dynasty judged the length of people with literary talent, after this essay conference, see who dares to compete with Ganmen.
