Liu Yuan's downgrade promotion had a very good effect, not only returning a large amount of silver in time for emergency, but also taking advantage of the situation to spread the belief of "all products produced by the golden and jade family are high-quality products" through the mouths of everyone, and spread in Yangzhou and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Jane has become a classic case in Yangzhou's business community that can be written into textbooks.

It's a pity that many peers imitated him afterwards, but the effect was very average.

The goods were almost sold, and the silver was also available, Liu Yuan's confidence suddenly became stronger again, and asked Zhao An to send the silver to Xiao Niang immediately, and then accompanied Xiao Niang to the slave market to buy another batch of shared slaves.

Come to the government, you don't have to report to the official, like Liu Yuan, this time I came to chat with Yangzhou Thorn History, of course, Cui Thorn Shi, who has a good impression of Liu Yuan recently, heard that Liu Yuan came to visit, and actually threw down his busy official business, and met Liu Yuan in the side hall of the back hall with Yan Yuese,

Let's have a family of officials and people.

After saying hello to the tea, Cui Tingshi said with a smile: "Liu Yuan, last time you told me about printing, how is it going now?" ”

Liu Yuan said with a smile: "If you go back to your lordship, it will go well, and it will be ready for printing and sale at the beginning of next month." ”

After speaking, Liu Yuan reported some of the things he was preparing to plan to Lord Thorn Shi, and even Mr. Tuo Su's interpretation of the book was reported one by one, and Cui Thorn Shi nodded again and again when he heard it.

Of course, those secrets that can't be said are naturally flashed without mentioning.

"Good! Good! Good! Cui Tingshi said three good things in a row, and then said happily:

"This is a pioneering act, fortunately, fortunately, so that those who do not have the opportunity to listen to the teachings of famous teachers, but also have the opportunity to see the demeanor of famous teachers, not bad, not bad, in this way, my Yangzhou scholars will definitely benefit from their studies."

When I think of the time when I used to run far and wait for half a day for my studies, just for the sake of an obscure name, if I had a book like that at that time, it would definitely be very beautiful.

Seeing that Cui Tingshi was in a bad mood, Liu Yuan took the opportunity to say: "Adults, there are a few small ones who are uninvited. ”

As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to do, you can't go to the Three Treasures Palace, Liu Yuan must have his own purpose when he came to the door this time.

"Well, you say." Cui Tingshi smiled slightly, and as he spoke, he picked up the fragrant tea and put it to his mouth and took a sip.

"The first thing is that this printed book must have a name, as the so-called name is not right, the words are not good, the adult is highly respected, the scholar is rich and rich, and the adult is asked to give it a name, it is best to leave an ink treasure, so that the skilled craftsman can imitate the handwriting of the adult engraved on the cover."

What, take the name? Inscription? Or is it an inscription on a book that has the potential to live on forever? This is a great thing that is difficult to find even if the lantern is beaten, where does Cui Tingshi have the reason to refuse, just now I heard that Liu Yuan was looking for Mr. Su to explain instead of himself, and he was secretly envious in his heart.

Well, now the beautiful thing of choosing a name and an inscription is left to yourself, and you are still on your way.

"It's not difficult, the inscription is easy to say, let's take a name, you have to be careful, let the official think about it, the printer, the ink also, it's better to call it Moyun."

Ink rhyme? The ink fragrance is moving, the rhyme is long, Liu Yuan muttered in his heart, and nodded again and again, no wonder they all said that Cui Tingshi is a famous talent, it seems that it is really not bad.

"Adults learn to be rich and have five cars, and this name is so elegant, then the ink rhyme is good." Liu Yuan hurriedly sent a high hat.

Cui Tingshi scolded with a smile: "Okay, don't be a sycophant, what's the matter, say it together, what else are you sloppy with me?" ”

How does this sound like the taste of the elders in the family training the younger generations.

Liu Yuan smiled, in Yangzhou, as a businessman, he can talk to Lord Thorn Shi like this, he is definitely the number one, these days, the status of a businessman is very low, that is, no matter how rich you are, which one is not trembling when he sees Lord Thorn Shi, and he can't even sit unsteadily, which is like himself, as if he is as free as returning to his own home.

"My lord, it's like this, the cost of printing is very high, and you have to hire famous teachers and celebrities to interpret, and the pen fee can not be less, but for a group of poor scholars, the price of each book is very low, so I want adults to be able to do a convenient job in all aspects, this is the second thing, the third thing is that since I have been in the imperial examination, there are many talented people who shine in the imperial examination, and the villain is bold, please write an introduction to the experience of learning articles, and educate the younger generations, so that the young generation of talents can avoid detours."

"The villain learned that Master Cui was also an outstanding figure in Shilin, and he stood out from the crowd back then, so he specially wanted to ask the adult to write an article for the younger generations, so that the villain could be included in the book for the scholars to learn.

Every time Liu Yuan said a word, Cui Tingshi's eyes lit up, and when he said that he was the best in the imperial examination and the name Zhen Shilin, his eyes couldn't help narrowing, and he gently touched his beard with one hand, as if he had returned to the time when he was in high spirits, especially when he was praised by the emperor, which was the most proud thing in his life.

"Well, you're right." Cui Tingshi clapped his head and said: "Printing the book of sages, this is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, the government should support it, the official said here, if the procedures can be exempted, all taxes and miscellaneous items will be exempted, if there is troublemaker, the government will also severely punish it, as for writing articles to guide future generations, this is a matter within my equal share, then the pen fee will be exempted from talking, such a sacred thing can not let the copper smell stain." ”

"Yes, my lord, it's the villain who is pedantic." Liu Yuan hurriedly responded.

"Cough~~Cough~~" Cui Tingshi coughed dryly, pretending to say casually: "When this book comes out, I must leave a copy for the official, by the way, how will the article be arranged at that time?" ”

"Adults are highly respected, so they are naturally ranked first."

"Hmm~~" Cui Tingshi nodded with satisfaction, this is a good thing.

If according to what Liu Yuan said, there are a large number of celebrities who talk about the skills and direction of the exam, it is a golden rule, after all, the successful examples are all obvious, and those scholars who study hard in the cold window are not enthusiastic to order, so it can be seen that if this book can be published, it will be prosperous.

At that time, if the fame does not rise, it will be really unreasonable.

Isn't it just asking for a name? Such a good thing, Cui Tingshi will never miss it.

Liu Yuan was very happy in his heart, with Cui Tingshi's words, it is equivalent to the government giving him the green light, no one will take the opportunity to embarrass him, and the most important thing is that he doesn't even have to pay taxes, which is a great thing, but this matter has to be kept secret, if Cui Tingshi knows his own costs and profits and asks for tax exemptions, it would be strange if he didn't pinch himself to death.

"Adult, villain has a small suggestion~~"

"Oh, you say." Cui Tingshi is in a good mood.

Liu Yuan said cautiously: "My lord, the Jinshui River behind Jinshui Street, because it has not been cleaned up for many years, coupled with a lot of waste water and debris, and a little odor from time to time, please send someone to clean it up, because the annual jewelry industry skills competition is about to start, and many tourists come to watch, and the villain is afraid that the impact will not be good, so ......."

What the? Cleaning up the river?

The smile on Cui Tingshi's face disappeared suddenly, cleaning up the river or something, this is not a small project, the most is a waste of money, Yangzhou's economy is prosperous, it stands to reason that it is not bad for this bit of silver, but now more than half of the year, a lot of silver has been sprinkled out, there is still a lot left, but the "Demon King of the Mixed World" eldest grandson Shengwen is so troublesome, it is compensation and currying favor, the silver left in the government is not much, and the welfare of the subordinates cannot be reduced.

It's really sad that Cui Tingshi is really sad about this, can't he pay this money himself, right?

"This matter~~~" Cui Tingshi knocked on the table and said: "It's caused by your gold and silver shop, you make a lot of money, you can't have to deal with the aftermath of everything, if everyone takes you as an example, what kind of system will it be?" ”

"But ~~~"

Cui Tingshi said resolutely: "It's nothing, this matter will be solved by itself." ”

Liu Yuanyi gritted his teeth: "My lord, the Jinyu family is willing to fund the cleanup and contribute to Yangzhou, but can the government ~~~~~"

"Well, you'll be in charge of the cleanup, and you'll be awarded a model merchant plaque afterwards." Cui Tingshi said categorically.

As long as you don't have to pay for it yourself, the plaque or something, it doesn't cost a few small dollars, besides, for the sake of the jade pendant, you have to be close to him.

The one in front of you is a strange thing.

Liu Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this: "Lord Xie, the villain promises to clean it up within ten days." ”

Getting the right to clean up the Jinshui River is the ultimate goal of Liu Yuan's coming.

Liu Yuan boasted to Xiao Niang that he would fill Xiao Niang's box with gold and silver within ten days, and the premise was to obtain the right to clean up the Jinshui River, so that he could justifiably do what he wanted to do without arousing suspicion. Thinking of the golden river that shimmered with golden light, Liu Yuan couldn't help but drool.

As the saying goes, horses have no night grass and no fat, and people have no windfall and no wealth, hearing that Lord Thorn Shi promised him full authority to clean up the Jinshui River, Liu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he seemed to see that the attractive gold and silver ingots seemed to be waving to him
