After talking with Wen Yanbo, Su You finally learned the names and surnames of the four of them.

Two of them are Wen Yanbo's elder brother and third brother, whose names are Yanhong and Yanjiang respectively, and the table characters are Daya, Dalin, and Dayou; The remaining person is named Li Chen.

Wen Yanbo's father is Wen Junyou, who was originally a bachelor of the Wenlin Pavilion in the Northern Qi Dynasty, and after entering the Sui Dynasty, he was a doctor in Sili, and he was a colleague with Xue Daoheng.

Because of this colleague relationship, Wen Junyou and Xue Daoheng also have some communication, and because of Wen Yanbo's talent, Xue Daoheng even praised him as "the talent of the prime minister." ”

With Xue Daoheng's eyes, the relationship between Wen Yanbo and Xue Daoheng is naturally not bad, and correspondingly, Wen Yanbo's personal relationship with Li Gang is also excellent, and he was also Yang Yong's crown prince; After Yang Guang ascended the throne, Wen Yanbo's career went to the quagmire, and because of Xue Daoheng's death, they can be regarded as worse now, and they have long been unofficial and light.

It is often these people who are full of nostalgia for officialdom the most, and when they hear the name of Su You, they can't help but have a glimmer of hope.

After Su You introduced himself, Wen Yanbo immediately stood up again, and said in his mouth, "Su Yushi"

Su You also stood up, waved his hand and said, "Da Lin, you and I are both fellow Daoists, it's better to call your name directly, you and I can meet here, and it can be regarded as the fate of cultivation in the previous life." ”

Wen Yanbo nodded and said depressedly, "Since the second duke of Su Gao was deposed, my two brothers have lost their official positions and have been traveling around for the past half a year; Speaking of which, I only went to Yizhen's house a few days ago, and then I came to Langya to pay tribute to the cultural relics. ”

Since Su Wei and Gao Gong were demoted, there have been some changes in the officials everywhere, and Wen Yanbo and his brother are also among them, which Su You does not know.

As for the Yizhen in Wen Yanbo's mouth, he naturally said Li Chen; And his third brother Wen Yanjiang, because of his youth, has not yet gone to the official career.

"I see, I wonder if your brother has ever been to Qi County? I heard that Gao Gong seems to be a guest teacher at the starting point academy in Qi County. Su You expected that they would also come out to travel and relax, but he didn't expect them to be scattered for half a year, so he asked with interest.

The reason why Qi County is talked about is naturally because Yan Shigu is also friendly with Xue Daoheng and Li Gang, and Yan Shigu also lost his official position because of Li Gang's burden.

Wen Yanbo said abruptly, "Really? Gao Xiang is also in the starting point academy? Then our trip to Qi County is imminent. Speaking of which, when Shi Gu was deposed, we tried our best to get rid of him, who knew that a few years later, we were all far away from the court, but he had his own career. ”

Speaking of Yan Shigu, Su You and Wen Yanbo suddenly had a new topic, and Wen Yanbo's brother and Li Chen also participated.

However, Wen Yanjiang, the most common of the Wen brothers, has never spoken.

Wang Bodang and Lu Sheng didn't think that Su You was also down-and-out in his early years, and they even founded the Starting Point Academy when they were at their most depressed, and for a while, both of them looked up to Su You.

Su You didn't expect to be able to brush up on his favorability when talking about those sad pasts, speaking of which he ran the Starting Point Academy at that time, in fact, it was because he had nothing to do, so why do you have to calculate the itinerary wherever you want to go now?

chatted for a while, and finally inevitably returned to Su You.

Speaking of the itinerary, Su You naturally has nothing to hide, so Kan Kan said, "I've been so busy lately that I have no clue, things are overwhelming, I am still in Langya today, and I will have to go down to Jiangdu tomorrow; If you insist on going to Qi County to see Gao Gong and Shi Gu, I have a few letters for you to bring over."

"Why bother with a little effort?" Wen Yanbo said indifferently, the rumors of the imperial court, they have heard it to some extent, and it is naturally about Su Youdou's Zhang family and the Yuan family.

Of course, the Wen Yanbo brothers will not be optimistic about Su You, although Su You has Yang Guang's single-minded support behind him, but let him be a small fish and shrimp to shake two century-old families, how is this different from using a mantis arm as a car?

Su You didn't see Wen Yanbo comment on his itinerary, and he probably understood their attitude towards him, but he pretended to care about them intentionally or unintentionally, "I don't know what Da Lin's plans for the future are next?" I mean, after going to Qi County. ”

"I can only go back to my hometown and wait for His Majesty to suddenly remember us." Wen Yanbo replied with some desolation.

"I wonder what Da Lin thinks of the publishing house?" Su You asked tentatively.

"Nature is excellent." Wen Yanbo would not have known that movable type printing was an invention of Su You, and the fact that newspapers could be published every day naturally benefited from the birth of movable type printing.

But is there no harm in the development of the printing industry? At least nowadays, it is difficult for poor scholars to earn pocket money by copying books.

Of course, Su You could understand his hypocrisy and grievances, so he had to pretend to be stupid and said, "I have a good brother who ran a newspaper in Yuhang, but he has gone to sea for a while, and the distribution of the newspaper may be paralyzed, I wonder if a few brothers Wen and Yizhen can help with this little favor?" ”

"Well" Wen Yanbo obviously can't refuse Su You's suggestion, because there are too many people who have made a career by running a newspaper, such as Wang Zhen, Sun Shan, Du Ruhui and so on.

Besides, who can resist the temptation to pass on his writings to others?

The reason why Wen Yanbo couldn't agree immediately was because his brothers had never run a newspaper and had no experience in newspapers; And because this newspaper has something to do with Su You, they are a little worried that they will be implicated because of the fight between Su You and Guan Long.

Of course, Su You could see the surprise and worry on Wen Yanbo's face, and then said sincerely, "Then it's decided?" It doesn't matter, you can go to Qi County first, and then go down to Jiangnan. Speaking of which, I'm going to Jiangdu tomorrow, but I can only stay in Jiangdu, if you don't pass by Jiangdu when you go to Yuhang, you and I don't know when we will be able to meet. ”

"Okay, let's discuss it again, how about we try to reply to you within half a month?" Wen Yanbo listened to Su You's words, and finally chose to procrastinate.

"That's okay" Su You nodded a little embarrassed, and then the Wen brothers and Li Chen said goodbye to Su You, and they also told Su You about the inn where they lived, the reason for this was obviously because Su You wanted to treat them as messengers.

After they left, Xia Ziwei finally couldn't help but say, "What Mr. said is only afraid that it is not true, since ancient times, Yuhang has been one of the gathering places of literati, and even if Zhang Zhongjian's newspaper is not in charge of it himself, it is impossible to fall into chaos." ”

"You kid" Su You's conspiracy was exposed, so he had to cry and laugh.

Xia Ziwei didn't take Su You's laughter and scolding to heart, but said firmly, "Let Mr. know that in fact, I also want to start a newspaper." ”

"You want to run a newspaper?" The other four people in the audience couldn't believe their ears and asked word by word.

The biggest reaction was naturally Lu Sheng, and after asking those five words, he emphasized, "You are a woman, you actually thought of running a newspaper, and more importantly, how many words do you know?" ”

Xia Ziteng, as her brother, also immediately poured a scoop of cold water, "She always remembers that one is one play, and when she says this, let's just hear it." ”

Xia Ziwei felt their incomprehension, so she had to bow her head and eat.

Su You is obviously the oldest here, but his thoughts are the most active, and it is not impossible for this woman to run a newspaper.

Didn't it still stipulate that "men and women don't sit at the same table" in the past, so what is it now? And didn't Xia Ziwei participate in men's activities a long time ago? For example, the last polo match

Thinking of this, Su You immediately said seriously, "Ziwei, what are your plans?" I'm sticking with you. ”

"Really? In fact, I just want to print out the stories I like and hope to be able to share them with others. Xia Ziwei looked up at Su You, and after confirming that there was no joke in Su You's words, she immediately said with a twist.

"What you want to do is just a publishing business, a publishing house and a newspaper are actually not the same thing, the publishing house relies on printing books and selling paper, and newspapers selling advertisements" Su You immediately explained, he was afraid that Xia Ziwei would not understand, and he didn't dare to use too complicated concepts, so he hit the nail on the head and started from profit.

Xia Ziwei shook her head, "Profit? I didn't think about it, I just wanted to share my favorite stories; If we can recover the cost, we can keep doing it. ”

It turned out that it was because of interest and wanted to lose? Is it so capricious to be rich?

However, Xia Ziwei's idea of only wanting to publish stories in newspapers made Su You think of magazines.

How did Xia Ziwei beat the snake with the stick, and asked Su Youdao, "Then can I ask you for a manuscript?" Don't worry, don't ask for your story in vain, and the remuneration will be preferential. ”

"I'm just afraid that I won't have much time to make up stories, but I just said that I support you, if you really want to run your own newspaper, I didn't say it." Su You nodded, he didn't quite believe that Xia Ziwei could do this.

The rest of the time turned into a debate meeting to discuss Xia Ziwei's future career, until the shopkeeper of the roast goose restaurant reminded them that it was now time to close.

Su You and the others couldn't, so they had to leave the roast goose shop in a gloomy manner, leading the horse along the street of Langya County to find an inn; Fortunately, this is not Chang'an and Dongdu, so there is no curfew.

After walking for dozens of feet, Su You and the others finally found the inn, and then stayed as a matter of course.

After staying overnight, Wang Bodang, Lu Sheng and others naturally gathered in Su You's house, because Su You still owed them a bedtime story - "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

After talking about the Three Kingdoms, Su You wrote letters to Yan Shigu, Gao Gong, Zhang Xutuo, Qin Qiong and others.

At this time, Xia Ziteng was naturally not idle, he was also writing letters to his family; Because of Su You, he, a hairy boy, can also send a learned person like Wen Yanbo.

The starting point academy is only separated by a wall from Xiajia Hutong, and they are just doing it anyway, aren't they?
