Contrary to the expectations of those who are above the top, with the passage of time, "Qingzhou Times" has become more and more valued and welcomed by all walks of life, and has gradually shown great influence, appeal and far-reaching political significance.

By the time the New Deal opposition in Langya Academy came to its senses, the Qingzhou Times had established its authoritative hegemony in the field of public opinion and propaganda, and its circulation increased month by month, expanding its circulation to Xu, You, Hebei, and Yan prefectures, and its political influence spread throughout most of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Cun served as an honorary professor of Langya Agricultural and Commercial College, which followed suit, and published the monthly magazine "Langya Journal" on the first day of the first month of the new year, publishing academic articles of teachers and students of various departments of the college, vigorously publicizing the discovery and verification of various arithmetic formulas, the application of the principle of Gewu, the summary and innovation of architectural design, the improvement of bookkeeping and accounting methods, the promotion of agricultural planting technology and industrial manufacturing technology, etc., which caused bursts of exclamations from professional scholars all over the Han Dynasty and won the unanimous praise of all walks of life in agriculture and industry It has been praised by all walks of life as "the most authoritative and practical encyclopedia journal of the Han Dynasty".

In contrast, Langya Academy, whose fame spread all over the world, was overshadowed.

Young students from various states, more and more will be admitted to Langya Agricultural Industrial and Commercial College for further study as their first choice, opened half a year later than Langya Academy, Langya Agricultural Industrial and Commercial College has now opened eight disciplines such as literature and history, geography, arithmetic, agriculture, business, Gewu, machinery, technology, etc., the existing faculty and staff of more than 620 people, more than 2,500 students in various disciplines of the four-year program, with six profitable affiliated workshops, the teaching area and dormitory area of the college have been expanded twice as much as in the early days of its establishment. The construction of various infrastructure far exceeds that of Langya College, which was impressive at the beginning, and the salaries and benefits of professors and students in various subjects are even more prohibitively high. It includes almost all kinds of professionals in the Han Dynasty except for scriptures, literature and history.

In the face of the increasingly severe situation, the world-renowned Langya Academy couldn't sit still. Many teachers and students who were rushing forward approached the mountain chief Zheng Xuan and the superintendent Bing Yuan, and strongly demanded that their own journal be opened immediately and a public opinion position belonging to the Great Han Shilin should be established.

But the problem came again, the current engraving technology of the affiliated printing workshop of Langya Academy could not print the exquisite and clear effect of "Qingzhou Times" and "Langya Journal", according to the statements of several craftsmen of the affiliated printing workshop, the teachers and students of Langya Academy finally understood: if they did not plead with Liu Cun, their ideas could not be implemented at all!

First of all, "Qingzhou Times" and "Langya Journal" were printed using unprecedented "movable type". Liu Cun's son, Liu Zhen, led more than 80 craftsmen to go through hundreds of experiments and take one year and three months to finally select lead and other metal smelting to cast gold characters that can be arranged and combined at will, select the required words according to the content of the article, put them into the precision copper plate grid in order, and then print them out one by one through the hand-cranked printing machine after proofreading.

Secondly, Zhushan's subordinate workshops are required to provide special printing inks and special papers.

According to the latest "Manufacturing Standards for All Industries" of the Langya Chamber of Commerce, soon after the establishment of Langya Academy, it received a full set of engraving printing technology and ink paper presented by Liu Cun, and had the largest and most high-tech affiliated printing factory in the Han world. For a long time, in accordance with the "Baiye Manufacturing Standards" revised by the Zhushan Research Institute, the use of No. 2 and No. 3 standard fonts to print historical classics, but once the use of No. 4 and No. 5 font engraving printing smaller than No. 3 fonts, it is necessary to have special inks provided by Zhushan Iron Workshop. Otherwise, what is printed will be an absolute mess and miserable.

The Qingzhou Times and Langya Journal, on the other hand, use smaller No. 4, No. 5 or even No. 6 metal fonts, and use high-efficiency and high-precision movable type printing, resulting in finer strokes. The structure is compact, and the technical requirements for typesetting and printing are multiplied. The printed newspapers and periodicals are not only clear and exquisite, but the content displayed on each sheet of paper is also several times that of block printing.

So far. Only the printing workshop set up in Zhushan and the printing workshop affiliated to the Qingzhou government government have a full set of technology and skilled craftsmen to print newspapers and periodicals such as "Qingzhou Times" and "Langya Journal".

Third, "Qingzhou Times" and "Langya Journal" are distributed through the military's post stations and military postal systems on the main water and land routes in Qingzhou, and the military carriages, military mail ships and passenger and freight carriages of post stations at all levels come and go between various places every day, and each issue of the newspaper can send the "Qingzhou Times" and "Langya Journal" issued on the same day to the counties of Qingzhou and neighboring counties within two days at the latest.

As the chief and superintendent of Langya Academy, Zheng Xuan and Bing Yuan had more complicated feelings about this than anyone else, they always agreed with and supported Liu Cun's Qingzhou New Deal, even if there was a slight disagreement, it was only that Liu Cun's steps were too fast, but the heavy pressure from the gentry class from all over the Han Dynasty also made Zheng Xuan and Bingyuan feel overwhelmed.

On the other hand, although Liu Cun kept his promise as always, never interfered in the management of Langya Academy, let alone expressed dissatisfaction with the free and open academic atmosphere, and the huge funds allocated to the academy by Langya Money Bank and Langya Chamber of Commerce every month without compensation, Zheng Xuan and Bing Yuan could also clearly feel that Liu Cun was becoming more and more dissatisfied with the current situation of Langya Academy, otherwise they would never have avoided it for a year.

Therefore, when Zheng Xuan and Bing Yuan visited Cao Song, the former Taiwei who moved to Langya to live in seclusion, they asked with a smile in the face of Cao Song's "Qingzhou Times" issued today, and they didn't know what to say.

It was close to noon, and Liu Cun, the state pastor who had agreed to come to the door to meet him, finally arrived, and Zheng Xuan and Bing Yuan, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately felt a sense of relief, and the speed of standing up was much faster than that of Cao Song, who was over the age of six.

Liu Cun was secretly surprised when he saw Zheng Xuan and Bing Yuan here, and immediately understood that it was the wind that Cao Song quietly released after receiving his greetings, so Liu Cun did not have a trace of surprise on his face, and still smiled calmly as before.

Today's Liu Cun is not comparable to the past in terms of temperament or city government, he first respectfully greeted Cao Song with his nephew and nephew, and Cao Song's heart was full of joy with a "Shibo" call, and finally Cao Song insisted that Liu Cun sit beside him and drink tea together.

After the salute with Cao Song. Liu Cun also respectfully greeted Zheng Xuan and Bing Yuan, and respectfully asked everyone to sit down before he sat down.

Cao Song looked at the polite Liu Cun with a smile and admired it. After Liu Cun sat down, he solemnly expressed his gratitude, and then pointed to the fragrant tea in the cup. Asked with great interest:

"This is the new tea sent by the virtuous nephew the day before yesterday, the old man has never tasted such a mellow and fragrant product, I don't know where this tea comes from?"

"Back to Shibo, this is Junshan spring tea from Jingxiang Dongting...... After the Xuzhou Mijia caravan purchased, it was quickly transported back to the East China Sea for refining, and the younger brother's brother Mi Zizhong knew that the younger generation was fond of tea, and sent someone to send a few catties every month. I can only ask Shibo to taste it fresh. Liu Cun replied very naturally as if he were his own family.

Cao Song laughed, a few modest words in his mouth, but he was very happy in his heart.

"Favor one over the other! Liu Qingzhou, it seems that he hasn't come to my Langya Academy for more than half a year, right? Bing Yuan suddenly said this, Cao Song and Zheng Xuan both looked at Liu Cun, eager to hear how he answered.

Liu Cun was not surprised by Bing Yuan's opportunity, picked up the teacup and took a leisurely sip, and then looked at Bing Yuan with a smile: "Master Bing." Could it be that the Langya Chamber of Commerce quietly sends you so much good wine and tea every month, and it can't stop your life-threatening mouth? ”

Cao Song and Zheng Xuan laughed, Bing Yuan had nothing to do with Liu Cun, who didn't think according to common sense, knowing that Liu Cun meant to blame him for not doing his best for the Qingzhou New Deal. I just don't know how to respond to Liu Cuncai.

Cao Song, who had been a great Si Nong, a great Honglu, and a captain, was sleek and sophisticated, and he smiled and gently changed the topic: "I didn't expect the virtuous nephew to be so frank and cheerful, no wonder Aman returned home after the defeat." always remembered Zijian, and frequently sighed that if Liu Zijian fought side by side. I'm afraid that Luoyang has already been captured, so why is the good situation so bad. Ha ha! ”

Liu Cun hurriedly and humbly saluted: "Brother Meng De is the most respected brother of the younger generation, the year before last when he was called to Luoyang to face the saint, the younger generation and Brother Meng De hit it off at first sight, and then there were many correspondences, mutual farewell, at that time the younger generation made a promise to Brother Meng De, stepping in the footsteps of Brother Meng De, eradicating the crooked cults and underworld forces under the rule, after more than a year of hard work of all colleagues, with the majesty of Brother Meng De that year, finally let all kinds of crooked cults and underworld forces disappear in the entire Qingzhou, and the atmosphere in various places is new, People from all walks of life applauded. Now, the younger generation can face Brother Meng De with a smile. ”

Cao Song immediately praised loudly, and Zheng Xuan also nodded frequently, recognizing Liu Cun's integrity very much.

Bing Yuan, who was not happy in his heart, said a few more words of bad scenery: "Yes! In five months, more than 300 heads were cut off, more than 70 gentry property was confiscated, and more than 40 temples built with huge property were converted into enlightenment schools. ”

"I remember that Liu Qingzhou went out on patrol before, and he has always been a light car and a simple follower, never scruples, only one or two attendants around him, and now he doesn't bring more than 100 soldiers, and he doesn't seem to dare to go out."

Liu Cun responded with a smile: "As long as it is beneficial to the people and the long-term stability of the local government, what is this infamy?" If the country lives and dies for profit, will it not be avoided because of good and evil! This sentence is not just talking, in this life, I, Liu Cun, will have no hesitation and do what I say! ”

"Master Bing, you also extinguish the fire, if you have any opinions about the younger generation, you can put them forward, don't be like Master Zheng, don't say anything in your stomach, and sulk when you go home."

Everyone laughed again, and Zheng Xuan shook his head helplessly: "Even the elimination and the beating dragged me in, you are still the same virtue as before, and you never suffer." ”

Bing Yuan was no longer polite when he heard this, and took the "Qingzhou Times" on the side and patted it gently: "The academy also wants to run a journal, okay?" ”

Liu Cun saw Cao Song and Zheng Xuan looking at him nervously, and asked in great surprise, "Is it difficult to run a journal?" Why do the seniors look like this? ”

Cao Song laughed again, Bing Yuan was so angry that he simply picked up the teacup and stopped talking.

Zheng Xuan had no choice but to explain the original situation, the predicament faced by Langya Academy, and the huge pressure on himself and Bingyuan to Liu Cun one by one, and said that he would carry out systematic reform of Langya Academy to adapt to the development of today's society.

Liu Cun listened very carefully and knew that as long as Zheng Xuan and Bing Yuan were in charge, no matter what newspapers and periodicals Langya Academy produced, they would not become political tools of the hostile camp, but Liu Cun still wanted to use this incident to completely tell the two great Confucians of the world that he wanted to say for several years but didn't know how to say it - the world is the world of the people of the world, and only the unremitting pursuit of equality and freedom can prevent the Han nation from falling into an endless cycle of disasters!
