Chapter 499: It's the wind, it's the waves, it's Qingping, it's the waves! (Ask for subscription)
Xianyang Palace.
Fusu sat on it.
When he heard that Ji Heng was going to open a school called 'Blowing News', Fusu frowned, and when he heard that Fusu wanted Gongzi Gao, Jiang Lu, Hu Hai and others to give him, his face instantly became gloomy.
He tapped his fingers on the desk and said quietly, "I just want to know now, what is the newspaper in your mouth?" What does it have to do with paper? ”
Ji Heng smiled.
He reached out and pulled out a 'newspaper' from his sleeve.
Seeing this, Wei Sheng hurriedly trotted a few steps to Ji Heng, took the newspaper in his hand, and then respectfully sent it to the Fusu case.
Fusu lowered his eyebrows and glanced at it a few times.
Only then did he reach out and take the newspaper in his hand, and after a few careful glances, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes, which was not much different from the paper he had written before.
The only difference is probably that the paper should be larger and more content can be written.
He looked at Ji Heng and asked curiously: "This is the newspaper you are talking about?" ”
Ji Heng nodded, knowing that Fusu didn't see the magic in it, and said lightly: "Your Majesty has ever heard a word." ”
"What's the matter?" Fusu came with some interest.
"The wind rises at the end of the green ping, and the waves become between the waves." Ji Heng Road.
Fu Su bowed his head, showed a smile on his face, and said: "I have heard that this sentence should be from Song Yu's "Wind Fu" of Chu State. ”
"The wind is born on the earth, at the end of the apple, invades the valley, is angry in the mouth of the earth, is in the mountains of the Taishan, dances under the pines and cypresses, fluttering, and angry."
He was still familiar with these words.
Speak out.
Ji Heng nodded and said with a smile: "The newspaper in Your Majesty's hand, in my opinion, is the wind and the waves, but it guides the public opinion of the world!" ”
"It's the times!"
Hear the words.
Fusu's face changed slightly.
He looked at the newspaper in his hand again, and with a look of solemnity and caution in his eyes, he asked, "I want to know more." ”
Ji Heng straightened his back and said eloquently: "The newspaper looks ordinary at first glance, and there is nothing brilliant about it, but what if the newspaper is no longer limited to one, but becomes a thousand, ten thousand?" ”
"Since ancient times, books have been hidden in the hands of nobles and scholars, and people in the private city know very little, and the understanding of government decrees often comes from the government and scholars."
"To a certain extent."
"The decree of the court is not local."
"It will only be passed down to the level of scholars, and then down, what will be passed on is basically not in the hands of the court, and the officials' upward proclamations will also be deceived to a certain extent."
"Newspapers are breaking this limitation."
"Let the decree of the court be transmitted directly to the local bottom and fall into the eyes of those who are literate, so that the decree can get a better publicity."
"Break the information control of the officials on the court, but also avoid the influence of too many officials in the court, although there are not many literate people in the world at present, but with the Great Qin decree from the past from top to bottom, layer by layer transmission, to from top to bottom, only through the newspaper layer, it can ensure that the policy is not distorted."
"It can also reduce the deception of officials."
"So to speak."
"With the advent of newspapers, the release of information that was monopolized by the bureaucratic system in the past, and the channels for the court to receive information will gradually be enriched."
"The control over the world will also be stronger."
Listening to Ji Heng's description, Fusu's heart moved, and he already understood the wonderful use of the newspaper, which was to break the local officials' disobedience to the decree, so that the policy could be conveyed to the bottom completely.
This has an obvious effect on the court to break the closed control of the local government over the locality.
Localities will also be subject to a lot of restrictions.
Come to think of this.
Fusu's expression softened slightly.
He bowed his head and said: "If this newspaper can really play such a role, it will indeed be of great benefit to Great Qin, and the policies of the court can be better transmitted." ”
"It's just that what you are talking about, what is it?"
Ji Heng said calmly: "If there are thousands, tens of thousands of copies of such a newspaper, and it is distributed in Xianyang, how many people in the city will know the content of the newspaper?" ”
Fu Su pondered for a moment and said slowly: "With the speed of news transmission in the market, I am afraid that in a few days, the content of the newspaper will be known to everyone." ”
"What if one of the newspapers was published all over the world?" Ji Heng asked again.
Fusu's face changed slightly.
He got it all right.
The role of newspapers is to refine the information and quickly transmit the information in a more subsident way, so that a lot of news cannot be covered and will be known to more people in the world.
There are many people in the know.
It is bound to affect public opinion in the world, and the surging public opinion can even lead to the general trend of the world.
This is the gathering momentum.
That is, the wind in Ji Heng's mouth.
Both are similar.
The corners of Ji Heng's mouth raised slightly, and he said lightly: "Such a sharp weapon of the country, if it really comes out, how can it not be in the hands of the court." ”
"And the restructuring has a lot of influences, if the ministers of the DPRK and China are directly taken over, it will inevitably affect public opinion, thus hindering the restructuring, and Gongzi Gao, Jiang Lu and others are from the royal family, and the restructuring has little impact on them."
"And they themselves are quite talented, so it is most appropriate to let them be responsible for the corresponding proofreading, as for Hu Hai, because these papers are from his hands, they should naturally be awarded official positions."
Hear the words.
Fusu pondered for a moment and nodded.
Nowadays, the role of newspapers has not really been put into practice, and if it is really so wonderful, even he would not dare to easily hand it over to the courtiers.
So I want to come.
It is indeed the most appropriate to be in the hands of the clan.
And let the clan send a scholar, in fact, Ji Heng said it a long time ago, but he himself has not made up his mind, and he is worried that he will be opposed.
Now Ji Heng took the initiative to speak, and Gao, Jiang Lu and others had already obtained knighthoods in the past, so it was natural for them to become officials, but the official position could not be too high.
At the same time, it also promotes the 'reduction of the nationality' of the children of the clan, so that the children of the clan who are not three generations away will be removed from the clan to reduce the burden on the clan.
Think about it.
Fusu nodded and said, "Yes, but every newspaper you compile needs to be read by me in advance, and I don't want something in the newspaper that I don't want to see." ”
Ji Heng said: "It should be like this." ”
Fusu pushed the newspaper on the case aside again, and let Wei Sheng send it back to Ji Heng's hands, and said with a deep expression: "I'll wait now and see how much surprise you can bring to me." ”
"How much impact it will have on the world."
"Your Majesty will see." Ji Heng responded with a smile, refolded the newspaper, put it on his sleeve, bowed his hand slightly, and exited the hall.
Fusu watched Ji Heng leave, and then said: "Wei Sheng, send someone to Ji Heng's residence to learn the papermaking technology that Hu Hai has mastered, such a heavy weapon, the imperial court must master it." ”
Wei Sheng's heart froze, and he hurriedly said: "No, the minister will go down and make arrangements." ”
Fusu nodded.
He waved his hand and told Wei Sheng to step back.
Fu Su slowly stood up, soothed his body, looked out of the hall, and said indifferently: "Ji Heng, Ji Heng, I trust you so much, when the world is decided, I will start the reform of the world, you must not let me down, let alone too many mistakes." ”
"I don't want the originally stable Great Qin to make a mess because of your restructuring."
The next day, the West Side.
Gongzi Gao, Gongzi Jianglu and others all arrived at Ji Heng's residence today, with a strong excitement and excitement in their eyes, they had received an order from Fusu yesterday, and they will enter the Propaganda Department under the restructuring government from tomorrow, specifically responsible for propaganda.
That's it.
The children of the Great Qin Sect, since the first emperor's brother became a monk, has basically cut off the road to becoming a monk.
With this decree of Fusu, they have the possibility of becoming a leader.
I can't help but feel surging.
In the hospital.
Hu Hai was also quite excited.
His official position is several times higher than that of Gongzi.
Hu Hai said with a smile: "I know that with Ji Heng, sooner or later I will be able to come out one day, and it is not in vain that I have been making paper here for a few years, and now I finally have a place to use, just look at Ji Heng's appearance, I am afraid that the paper I make will soon be used up by him." ”
Speaking of which.
Hu Hai was also quite depressed.
It took him six or seven years to make tens of thousands of pieces of paper, which was not a lot of effort, but it did take a lot of effort.
Now it is going to fall into the hands of Ji Heng.
Childe said with a smile: "The paper can be recreated when it is gone, but I am waiting for the opportunity to become a master, but this is the only time." ”
"Although the official position is not high, I have finally taken the first step."
"The clan membership seems to be beautiful, but in fact there are too many restrictions, I have been studying hard for decades, and there is no place for it, like Ronglu, who likes military affairs, but he can only dance knives and guns in the palace, and he can't be like his uncle in the past, go into battle to kill the enemy, and it's just a waste of time all day."
"Right now, Your Majesty remembers the brotherly love, and reopens the road to Zhishi for us, if we can seize the opportunity, we may not be able to worship the marquis like the children of the clan in the past."
"Although I got rid of the clan body, I also gained freedom."
Gongzi Jiang Lu also echoed: "A thousand birds are in the forest, it is better to have a bird in hand." ”
"That's what Mr. Ji told me."
"Paper, this thing is good, but it is useless for a few people to know about it."
"It's better to change to an official position."
"What's more, the younger brother, Ling was already abolished from the clan, and now he can live by relying on Mr. Ji, and now that he has an official position, he also has Yulu, how can he be more comfortable in the future than now, but going to the official office all day, I am afraid you will really not get used to it."
"Haha."
Lu's words drew a burst of laughter.
mostly ridiculed Hu Hai.
Hu Hai also smiled, not very concerned.
Since he was deposed from the clan, and when he saw the brothers pleading for himself, Hu Hai only had gratitude to these brothers in his heart, and he would not be angry at all.
Today's Hu Hai is nearly thirty years old.
It's been growing up for a long time.
Looking at the happy appearance of Gongzi Gao and several people, Ji Heng said: "Don't be happy too early, the pressure on the restructuring government is very great, and many of them are a little unbearable, if I hadn't deliberately asked for it, I'm afraid that many people would have withdrawn long ago." ”
"When it comes to newspapers, my request is simple."
"It's just going to be a blockbuster."
"Now the turmoil of restructuring is only driven in the court, and has not fallen to the locality, let alone heard in the ears of the local people, and the advent of the newspaper is to break through the obstacles with the people, so that some ideas of the imperial court will directly fall into the ears of the people at the bottom, and then force some self-styled officials to make concessions."
"The Democratic Advancement Officials retreat!"
"And newspaper printing is not easy."
"Although I asked Gao before, you went to the Character Survey Department, and let them engrave a lot of copper seals, but the printing is inverted after all, and it takes a lot of time to print the content on it without any typo, and now there are only a few officials in the Propaganda Department, and you may have to spend a lot of effort on this."
Childe Gao and several people were stunned.
They were also very curious before, why Ji Heng asked them to go to the Character Survey Office to ask for some 'upside-down wrong' copper characters.
Now I understand.
Not a bug.
It's for the sake of 'Yinzheng'!
Paper alone is really not effective.
If there is this living copper character, the effect is too strong.
As long as the arrangement is completed and the paper is sufficient, it is possible to mark almost unlimitedly.
This is of great benefit to the spread of books.
It's just the existence of the paper, and the existence of the engraved copper characters, only a few of them know, even the officials of the Kanzi Mansion, they don't know about it.
Therefore, they are very confident in a blockbuster.
After all
It's something completely new.
No one in the world had ever seen a paper before, let alone a 'newspaper' with exactly the same content, and they were all beginning to wonder how the world would be shocked when they saw this newspaper, and how the ministers of the court and the local scholars would feel when they saw such a 'strange thing'.
It's wonderful to think about.
Ji Heng smiled.
He just wanted to say that the children of Gongzi Gao thought too beautifully.
Movable type printing, is indeed very amazing, but the newspaper content is filled with a lot, so the copper stamp required is also very small, it is very time-consuming and laborious to really use, basically a few days will be spent on typesetting, such strength, a few days, it is easy to become cross-eyed.
Because the copper characters are really small, less than a quarter of an inch in circumference.
He didn't give much of a reminder.
When they do get their hands on it, they will know why movable type printing was so inefficient in ancient times.
Ji Heng did not stay in the house for long.
It's just that when he was leaving, he still reminded Gongzi Gao and a few others, and asked them to screen the copper seal as soon as possible, so as not to really use it and spend a lot of time looking for it.
Childe and others are full of mouths.
Return to the Reform House.
Chen Ping had already written down all his thoughts on abolishing the world official system, but when he saw the content of nearly a thousand words, Ji Heng did not hesitate, and directly called back, asking Chen Ping to refine and refine again, there were too many words.
After several revisions by Chen Ping and others, the text was finally handed to Ji Heng.
Ji Heng took a brief look at it, and now the content is much more refined, but he only emphasized the necessity of reforming, the disadvantages of the hereditary official system, and the benefits of abolishing the hereditary official system, and at the same time, several other officials stated the placement of the retired officials.
The content is concise and to the point.
Ji Heng nodded, and handed it over to Gongzi and others.
Let it plan for printing.
It's just that the original confident son, after he really took over, it took three or four days to print the first edition, and the whole person was haggard for a long time, but with the completion of the first edition, the follow-up printing was obviously much easier.
Thousands of copies were printed in two days.
Day 3.
The newspaper officially came out in Xianyang.
