Chapter 69: An Appointment with a Nobleman
Han Fei finally persuaded the scholars and immediately rushed back to the publishing house. The first debate in the morning was about to end, the press department sent back the manuscript, and the publishing house had to typeset and print it in more than an hour, which was a difficult task.
Fortunately, Han Fei has conducted several rehearsals in advance for this matter, and the connection between various departments is relatively tight, and he is still relatively optimistic about completing this task.
When noon was approaching, Kuaima sent back the collected reporters' manuscripts, and the editors in charge of the columns of the editorial department immediately began to review and typeset, and after Han Fei signed and sealed, they were sent to the backyard printing workshop. The chief steward Li Dayou personally commanded the typesetter and the word inspector, according to the assembly line, crossed, and finally handed over to the printer for printing.
In a short time, the printed first issue of the supplement was transported to the distribution department, and Han Fei personally reviewed it correctly, and immediately ordered the on-call delivery staff to quickly transmit it to the sales points.
Seeing the back of the newspaper delivery man leaving, Han Fei breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he remembered that he hadn't eaten lunch yet, so he immediately returned to the duty room and ordered his subordinates to bring food.
Just as he was bowing his head to eat, Mrs. Liang and Jia Baoqin, who were dressed as men, walked in with a smile all the way.
"Big brother, are you busy until now to eat?" Jia Baoqin asked in surprise.
Han Fei glanced up at the two of them and quipped, "Who are the two sons, and how did they get to Xiao Ke's room?" ”
"Our brother has heard the name of Han Gongzi for a long time, and he took the liberty to visit, forgive his sins, and giggle ......" Jia Baoqin learned the posture of a literati, bowed his hand, and before he finished speaking, he hugged Mrs. Liang's arm, and the two laughed together.
Han Fei beckoned the two of them to sit down, and said with a smile: "You are very interested, it seems that the debate in the morning is very exciting?" ”
"It's so exciting!" Jia Baoqin said excitedly: "Big brother, it's a pity that you didn't go!" ”
"There's no pity, I can guess if I don't go!" Han Fei smiled.
"Oh? Big brother, can you guess the scene of the theory? ”
"Those great Confucians are nothing more than quoting scriptures and trying their best to explain that the knowledge they believe in is correct, and in the end, no one will be able to convince anyone!" Han Fei said lightly: "Actually, even if the one-month study is over, the ending will still return to the original point, and no one can convince anyone!" ”
"Why did Big Brother say that? After so many Confucian debates, there will always be a conclusion, right? ”
"There can be no conclusion!" Han Fei sneered: "The literati have a bad habit, that is, 'contempt each other', they despise other people's opinions in their bones, how can they be convinced?" Moreover, psychology and science are like two brothers with the same parents, although there are differences in appearance, after all, they have the same root and origin, and there are entanglements. ”
Jia Baoqin said with some disappointment: "Since you already know the final result, why do you want to organize the Golden Autumn Theory?" ”
"The entire Shilin needs the Golden Autumn Theory to vent the emotions of gathering, and our people also need a large-scale event to gain greater fame, I just follow the trend!"
Mrs. Liang suddenly raised her head and stared straight at Han Fei, and said after a long while: "Brother Fei, did you predict today's result when you planned to issue a civil declaration?" ”
"Yes and no!"
"What do you mean by that?"
Han Fei glanced at Jia Baoqin and said: "At the beginning, I had the idea of running a newspaper purely for the eldest sister, Qin'er was worried that the eldest sister's decadence would hurt her body excessively, and if she wanted me to think of a way, I wanted to direct the eldest sister's mind to the newspaper." But when it really worked, I decided to do it well, so I carried out a series of plans! ”
"The concubine can meet you and Sister Qin, it's really a favor from God!" Mrs. Liang said movingly: "Fei's wisdom is far from comparable!" ”
"Eldest sister, we are all a family, and there is no need to say any words of gratitude and praise! After this tempering, the people's declaration will inevitably usher in great development, and we will have to be busy in the future! ”
"It's good to be busy, after you reorganized the editorial department, the concubine has a lot of free time, and she doesn't know what to do!" Mrs. Liang raised the newspaper in her hand and said: "This is a supplement declared by our people, the concubine looked at it, the main content of the morning study is covered, and the work of the press department is very careful!" ”
"Well, this is a practical combat experience, and when they are mature, they can be sent to all parts of the country with confidence, and in the future, they will be used as the backbone to gradually establish reporter stations in major state capitals! After the end of this discussion, the civil declaration will also be revised! ”
Mrs. Liang and Jia Baoqin were both surprised and said: "The content of our people's declaration is very popular, why do you want to revise it?" ”
"Eldest sister, Qin'er, the people's declaration is now more inclined to the Shilin class, and most of the content published is not what ordinary people like to see, which is not conducive to the people's declaration becoming stronger and bigger!"
"Isn't there a column such as a legendary book and a market anecdote?"
"That's just a joke, it's not necessary, ordinary people care about firewood, rice, oil, salt, birth, old age, sickness and death, food, clothing, housing, transportation, and so on. The focus of the people's declaration in the future will be to pay attention to the people's livelihood, people's feelings, folk customs, and the news around the people. ”
Mrs. Liang thought for a moment and said, "The non-brother is far-sighted, and the concubine agrees, but we can't lose the reputation we have accumulated in Shilin!" ”
"Of course, otherwise we have been so busy for so much in vain? Let's expand the edition, from the current eight editions to the twelfth edition. ”
"Brother Fei, you are a family member, you can do what you say, the concubine has no opinion!" Mrs. Liang looked at Han Fei expectantly and said, "After this expansion, the concubine will also serve as the editor of a column!" ”
"Eldest sister, your current workload is not small......"
"Not much, what the concubine is most afraid of is being idle and bored!"
"Okay, you will also be the editor in charge of the front page, and you will be responsible for moral articles, poems and songs in the future!"
Jia Baoqin hurriedly said: "Big brother, you also let me concurrently serve as the editor in charge of a column, I really can't take care of the affairs of the press department!" ”
"Qin'er, you are very smart and smart, you have been difficult to manage for two years, and I have already found a replacement for you!" Han Fei said with a smile: "When Ling'er is older, it is most appropriate for her to be in charge of this matter!" ”
"Yes, Ling'er is good, that girl is too clever, she can learn everything as soon as she learns, and her memory is very good!"
"It's a pity, God is jealous of talent...... Anyway, let's get ready for the afternoon! ”
With the experience of the first day, the work of the publishing house has been carried out more and more smoothly, and Han Fei is also relieved to hand over the operation to the people below.
In a blink of an eye, the cycle of the Golden Autumn Theory has passed halfway, and all parties are basically satisfied.
On this day, a government official rushed to the publishing house, handed Han Fei a note, and said: "Han Gongzi, if you have a guest who wants to see you, the adults will send you to invite you to the county office!" ”
Han Fei asked the official to drink tea and wait for a while, unfolded the note, and saw that it was written: The person who came was the commander of the Jinyi Mansion in the capital and the prefect of the Yingtian Mansion, and he might want to ask about the discourse of Xinxue.
