[Thanks to the support of friends, I climbed to the sixth place for the first time. I'll continue to catch up with the article now. After the most shameful, he asked for a monthly pass, hoping to stay in sixth place for a long time. 】

"Letters can be sent by mail, and this book can be sent by mail, right?"

Shen Kuo listened to what Han Gang said, and suddenly asked.

"Of course." Han Gang nodded, Shen Kuo was really smart, and he could see the other functions of the post office at a glance, "In the future, you can ask people to read it in advance, and order it for one or two years first, and those that are booked don't need to be sold in the bookstore, and it's easier to send them directly." ”

"Is the cost of the letter just worth the increased expense?"

Su Song had a deep question. He wasn't that kind of idealist, and he had seen reality clearly. There is no benefit, and the imperial court will definitely not nod in agreement. Even if it is agreed for a while, it will soon be terminated by later officials.

"yes, can you afford it?" Shen Kuo also asked.

Han Gang knows better than Su Song and Shen Kuo that once the postal service is popularized among the people, it is impossible not to make money. In the Hereafter, it was like buying and selling gold. It wasn't until the art of technology developed to the point where paper was discarded that the role of the post office plummeted. But he can't be sure how much money he can make now, that is, these two won't believe it.

"In the past, there were few letters, because it was too troublesome to ask someone to send letters, but with private mail, there will be more letters. For the imperial court, it is just to add one or two more to the post office, such as the post office in the town and township, one person can take care of it, and ten letters a month are enough to cover the expenses. The receipts of these post offices add up to a lot, and they are not without benefit to the imperial court. ”

Su Song calculated again in his heart, and nodded after the most reluctance, "If this matter can really be done well, it will definitely be a good deed for a thousand years." ”

"That's right." Shen Kuo also echoed, "Yukun's proposal is a great benefit to the country and the people!" ”

"Without further ado, enter the notebook as soon as possible and ask Empress Taishang for approval." Su Song said to Han Gang.

Han Gang nodded and said, "Han Gang understands it, and after writing it in the past few days, he will hand it over." ”

"If this is done, maybe we will take advantage of others." Shen Kuo laughed again and said, "I heard that Cheng Bochun wants to imitate "Nature" and establish a journal of Jingyi, saying that his Taoism is righteous. ”

Su Song glanced at Shen Kuo, pursed his lips, and didn't say much.

Han Gang said with a smile, "Han Gang has also heard about this matter. Moreover, Su Zizhan is said to also set up a periodical and publish poems. I have recruited a lot of famous talents in Beijing. ”

Han Gang was gossiping, and there was no anger on his face that someone had plagiarized his ideas, or Cheng Hao's unhappiness when he was ready to fight in the ring. His ears and eyes are much better than Su Song and Shen Kuo. I've heard these things for a long time. And even the participants know exactly who they are.

"Is that so?" Su Song was surprised when he heard this. That's a really fast way to learn.

Shen Kuo said: "A few days ago, I saw Su Zhiyuan drinking with Wang Juma of the eldest princess of the Qin Kingdom in Qingfeng Building, and I thought I was talking about running a periodical." He sneered, "But if you choose to take measures with Wang Fuma, if Empress Taishang hears this news, I'm afraid she won't be happy." ”

Han Gang's heart moved. Shen Kuo was regarded by the world as the culprit of the Wutai poetry case, but Han Gang always felt that it was not in line with the rumors in terms of time. It's just that now it seems that Shen Kuo does have a mustard in his heart.

However, he said that Empress Taishang didn't like Wang Xu, which was true.

The eldest princess of Shu has just been named the eldest princess of Qin recently, and before Zhao Ji became ill, the news of the discord between the husband and wife in her family had spread widely. How did Wang Shu serve the lord without a form, and he also wore a lot of private things in those boudoirs. Han Gang was not interested in these gossips, but the family always talked about these short topics among parents, and he unconsciously learned a little.

Emperor Taishang attaches great importance to his only sister, and Empress Xiang is also close to this sister-in-law. Su Shi and Wang Shu are close, and if they are on the side of Queen Taishang, they will not have a good face.

Elder Su Song didn't like to talk about other people's selfishness, so he turned to Han Gang and said: "A family of scriptures, a family of poetry." In the blink of an eye, there are two more. ”

Han Gang smiled, "It's lively." That's what makes it fun. ”

Han Gang didn't care at all. How can academic journals be so easy to start? Whether it is Cheng Hao or Su Shi, they don't have enough ability to maintain it. The enthusiasm of the moment can only be seen as a lively one.

"Nature" was published, but Han Gang posted it with his own money. The simple selling price is not enough to even print the engraving plate. The more you publish, the more you lose. It's not that Han Gang has money and is willing to pay for it, "Nature" won't last long at all, and it will be closed in two or three phases.

Could it be that Su Shi and Cheng Hao can compare their financial resources with themselves? Or is there someone who is willing to support and selflessly dedicate themselves behind the scenes?

Cheng Hao and his disciples, which one can be like himself, regardless of gains and losses, and at the same time be able to take out a large amount of property? is that Lu Dalin is a child of a family, unless he can take out all the properties under his name, how many periods can he support? Can the boring scriptures be compared with "Nature", which tells the wonderful story between heaven and earth?

Su Shi is there, but it is possible to support a little more time. There are many people who love poetry and songs, and the prostitutes in the Chu Pavilion of Qinlou will also take out a large amount of real money to support him.

But which of these literati is able to treat periodicals as a career in peace? Even if you really make money, the group of people around Su Shi will only use it to drink and have fun, where can you do it for a long time with peace of mind? It's not that he looks down on people, the gang around Su Shi is really few people who can do things. It's Su Shi, but it's good.

"I don't know if Brother Zirong and Cunzhong, have you ever heard of He Zhu?" Han Gang asked Su Song and Shen Kuo.

Shen Kuo shook his head, he had faintly heard the name, but he didn't have much impression.

Su Song was a little more knowledgeable, "Is it the word Fanghui?" His poetry is good. Somewhat famous. ”

"Yes, it's him." Han Gang nodded.

Han Gang actually had an early impression of the name He Zhu. Not only because his surname is He, but also because the table is Fang Hui. In the memory of his previous life, he also had this name. After hearing about this person that day, the memories that had been precipitated in the deep sea surfaced again, but Han Gang also knew that this person would be famous in the future, and no details existed.

However, in this era for many years, Han Gang has long understood that the evaluation of later generations is not enough to rely on, and character and character must be judged by their own understanding.

It is said that his small words are the most neat and good at refining words. If Su Zizhan runs a journal in Beijing, he will have to invite him to write articles. ”

"Neat? Refining words? Could it be that there is anything special about this He Zhu? Shen Kuo asked suspiciously.

Han Gang doesn't talk about poetry, the world is famous. claims to be not good at poetry, but the outside world thinks that he simply looks down on poetry and songs. After Han Gang became famous and his status was high, no one dared to talk about poetry in front of him.

"He's running errands in the Mint now." Han Gang explained, "Empress Taizu He is a member of the family, and she married a clan daughter before. got an official position. ”

"Messed things up?" Su Song frowned and asked. He knew that with Han Gang's temper, he could remember this person, and it would never be because he was good at poetry.

And if you put too much effort into poetry, you won't be reliable in doing things. Not to mention this He Zhu, it is Wang Anshi, in the eyes of Su Song, they are all unreliable models, if it weren't for the continuous repair and correction later, with the earliest decrees promulgated by Wang Anshi, the country would have been in chaos a long time ago.

"It's really a mess. Fortunately, I prevented him early in the morning, and I only dared to let him be a master book. But this one, no matter how simple the errand, can be done smashed. Chatting with colleagues on weekdays, how many times did I end up scolding. [Note 1]

"The poems are well done, and there are still some places that can arrange him." Su Song said.

"It's just not good to be in the mint. Writing poems and writing endowments is not good. Missed a few times. This year's performance appraisal is in the middle school! ”

"Down?!" Su Song shook his head, there was no way to say this.

Generally speaking, the evaluation of officials will not go to extremes. Although there are upper and lower nine grades, almost no one can get the comments from above, unless there is a special award. And the bottom is extremely rare. If you really want to make a big mistake, you will go directly to Taiwan Prison for trial, who is still patient to add an evaluation to him? The performance appraisal of the lower middle school is basically about to be demoted.

"It's a shame." Shen Kuo sighed, feeling sorry for He Zhu's situation. When encountering a boss like Han Gang who is too calm and has no intention of poetry and songs, it can only make people sigh, "He is chivalrous." ”

"Chivalrous? Why don't you see him throwing pen from Rong? Han Gang sneered, "It's just marrying a sect daughter, and it's not enough to make the imperial court fearful." ”

Shen Kuo suddenly asked again, "Yukun, you said that he is the most skilled in small words, and he is good at refining words, right?" ”

"That's right, I heard so."

Han Gang nodded, but he had only heard about it. With his level, whether the words are neat or not, and the subtle differences, he really can't see them.

"Then Su Zhiyuan will not necessarily invite him to write."

Han Gang was stunned for a moment, and then understood: "...... Not really. ”

"It's hard to say."

Su Shi's poems are magnificent, and he is even more bold in small words, but he is indeed not careful in the use of words and words, and he is always discussed. If He Zhu's works are indeed like this, it is indeed not easy to pass from Su Shi's hands.

"Don't talk about that." Su Song was a little annoyed when he heard this, put down the teacup, and said to Han Gang and Shen Kuo: "The matter of Qin Tianjian can't be delayed any longer, the principle of the armillary sphere has been proven to be wrong." Renovating large telescopes, resetting the calendar, and creating new timepieces, Qin Tianjian has been dragging his feet. We can't let them continue to grind. Yukun, what do you think? ”

Note 1: He Zhuben's biography said that he 'likes to talk about the affairs of the world, can he use a lot of pretenses, although he wants to be powerful for a while, he does not like it, and he has no last words to denigrate'. In other words, when talking about the current situation, as long as you don't like it, even if you are powerful, you will attack wantonly without scruples. Especially with the word 'although', it can be seen that He Zhu is not just attacking the powerful. This kind of character also makes him 'the only one who has a good relationship with him, but he believes in An Chengju'.
