The alliance has been completed, the goal of dividing Xianbei has also been achieved, and the follow-up things have been completed by special personnel. It was useless for Cheng Yu to stay in Xianbei's territory any longer, so he happily met the Han.

Cheng Yu is gone, but the grassland is lively. Don't look at Tanshi Huai in a short period of time, he was so angry that he vomited blood twice, but he was a peerless hero in the end, as soon as his body recovered slightly, he immediately started fighting on the grassland.

The battle on the grassland, Liu Hong was not interested in it at all, in his opinion, it was dog eat dog. Therefore, he handed over all this to the Military Aircraft Department to be responsible.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, we all know what you mean." Seeing Liu Hong's uneasy look, Zhang Huan, who was in charge of this matter, said: "I will control the strength of supporting Yan Liyou and Su Li, let them and Tanshi Huai maintain equal strength, and do not let either side sit big." Let Xianbei be in internal friction for a long time, and he is powerless to harm our big man. ”

"Yes, that's what I mean, the grassland has been quiet for so long, and it's time to be lively." After listening to Zhang Huan's words, Liu Hong was completely relieved.

Without those trivial things, Liu Hong returned to his idle life. But life is too leisurely, and there is no taste in living. You know, now is not the afterlife, some are entertainment. Now Liu Hong, that's really an idle egg.

"Let's go out for a walk, I haven't been out in a long time." After making up his mind, Liu Hong changed into civilian clothes and took the guards and went to the city to wander.

"My day, this Luoyang City is now a big construction site, what is there to play on the construction site." After coming out, Liu Hong found that due to the reconstruction of Luoyang, the city was full of various projects.

finally came out once, but it turned out to be this situation, Liu Hong was quite disappointed. Just when Liu Hong wanted to go back to the palace, suddenly in a house next to him, there were several big men, and a person who looked like a scholar came out of it, and then followed a person who looked like a shopkeeper, and threw a stack of papers on the scholar. He also scolded in his mouth, "What kind of thing is written, just this is embarrassed to take it and print the book, you are here to open a good hall." ”

The paper fell from the scholar's body and scattered all over the ground, and the scholar hurriedly bent down to pick up the papers that fell to the ground, "Why are you doing this, even if you don't approve of it, don't throw my manuscript." ”

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the stack of manuscripts that had not yet had time to be picked up by the scholar was immediately blown around by the wind. The scholar didn't care about complaining, and immediately rushed to pick up the papers that had been blown away by the wind.

But there was a lot of paper, and it was blown by the wind and floated everywhere. It is not a simple matter for a scholar to get all the papers back.

"Alas, don't look at it, help others." Liu Hong hurriedly beckoned his subordinates and helped the scholar pick up these floating papers.

People are more or less easy to do, and scattered manuscripts are quickly collected. Liu Hong handed the manuscripts to the scholar and asked curiously, "This gentleman, what's going on, why were you thrown out?" ”

"Well, don't mention it." The scholar shook his head for a while, as if he couldn't say anything about what had just happened. "Thank you for your help, there are still things to do, so I won't bother you."

Looking at the appearance of this scholar, Liu Hong's curiosity was aroused, and he looked up and looked at the signboard on the house that he had just thrown out, with the words "Printing Society" written on it, coupled with the scolding of the shopkeeper he heard just now, Liu Hong felt that this person should be a down-and-out literati who wanted to publish books.

Seeing the appearance of this literati, Liu Hong remembered himself in his previous life. After all, this person and himself in his previous life can also be regarded as peers, so Liu Hong decided to give this person a chance, "Sir, do you want to print books here?" If that's the case, I can do you a favor. ”

"Ahh Hearing this, the scholar was quite surprised, and then asked, "Sir, your family is also a printing company?" ”

"There are a few printing houses." After answering casually, Liu Hong asked, "Can you let me read your manuscript first?" ”

"Yes, of course." So saying, the man handed over the manuscript.

"Ah, it's a vernacular book." Liu Hong was quite surprised.

"Yes, I think that novels are for the entertainment of the people, and they are facing the vast number of people, if they use classical Chinese, the people can't understand it, and the effect will be much worse." Speaking of this, the scholar sighed and continued: "But I have found several printing houses, and they all say that I am insulting to Sven. It's still good to have a printing house like this, but it's just a manuscript thrown away. There are several printing societies, and people throw away manuscripts together. ”

"My day, you wrote vernacular in the Han Dynasty, of course people will throw it out for you." Liu Hong didn't pay attention to the scholar anymore, but looked through the manuscript he wrote, wanting to see if it was worth publishing.

Vernacular literature, for those traditional literati, is not even as good as bullshit. However, Liu Hong is different, and when he saw the vernacular in the Han Dynasty, he had a very cordial feeling.

"It's amazing, it's still a YY novel! It's a pity not to mix up this writing, it's definitely a god's material! Looking at the manuscript in his hand, Liu Hong felt a sense of surprise. Okay, I'll print this book for you. ”

"Really?" The scholar was a little incredulous.

"Of course it's true, isn't it just a matter of printing a few books, do I need to fool you."

"Thank you so much sir......"

Liu Hong waved his hand and said, "This is not the place to talk, let's find a place to talk in detail." ”

"Then the gentleman will come to my house to talk, not far ahead." With that, the scholar led the way.

On the way, Liu Hong figured out the origin of this scholar. This scholar's name is Ding Xiang, a native of Peiguo County, some time ago I heard that the imperial court held a imperial examination, so he moved his family here and wanted to try his luck. It's a pity that I came late and couldn't catch up with the imperial examination, and now I make a living by teaching people to read, and I want to wait for the next imperial examination to try my luck.

He can't earn a lot of money just by teaching people to read, and he still has a large family to support that, so he wants to find another way to make money. Picking and choosing, he chose to write a book. This industry is very hot now, and due to the encouragement of the imperial court, there are many people who have made a lot of money by writing books, and he is very blushing when he looks at it. And there is one point here, which is very important to him, that is, he can write books in his spare time, and it does not delay him from teaching people to read and make money.

Now that he had made up his mind to write a book, he thought about writing something when he had nothing to do. Because he taught people to read and write, he had a lot of contact with ordinary people, and when he heard the people complaining that classical Chinese was not easy to understand, he had a whim, so he wanted to write a book for the people to read in the vernacular.

But I didn't expect that the book was written, but the person who printed the book devalued what he wrote to the point that it was worthless, and he didn't print it at all. Not only did he not make any money, but he also put on a lot of paper and pen and ink money.

Hearing what Ding Xiang said, Liu Hong was a little silent, and he couldn't help but think about whether he wanted to advance the novel industry. After all, it is not only him who needs entertainment, but also the common people.

"Now the people can know a few words, and in a few years, the people will almost be able to get rid of illiteracy, in this way, the market of this industry is quite large."

For industries that can make money, Liu Hong wants to intervene. And this industry is not just to entertain the people, if it is well controlled, it can also guide the people's thinking.

Thinking of this, Liu Hong decided that he would first invest in a special publishing house to see if this industry had a future in Dahan.

Looking at Ding Xiang in front of him, Liu Hongxin said: "Meeting is fate, I will give him a chance to see if he is a talent that can be created." ”
