Chapter 284 Helping the Imperial Court

Chapter 284 Helping the Imperial Court

Bianhe Street, Left Wing Military Patrol Shop.

I saw two men in short brown clothes holding a ticket number, chatting excitedly while walking outside.

"What's your license plate?"

"1103. My birthday is easy to remember, how about yours?"

"I'm 0583."

"Is it your birthday too?"

"My birthday is 1212, but they say it's a pretty number and they won't give it up. It's my child's birthday."

"When are you going to play the cards?"

"Tomorrow is not even a moment. What about you?"

"I'm in the morning."

"Then we can't go together."

"At least it's better than standing outside and waiting for a day."

"That's right, making an appointment in advance like this will not delay our work. The military patrol shop is really doing a good job."

The two of them were chatting, when they suddenly heard someone beside them say indignantly: "Of course you agreed when you got the ticket numbers, only fifty numbers a day, it's like helping the victims of disasters, it's really unreasonable."

The two turned their heads and saw a large group of people in front of the door looking at them with envy and hatred.

The two hurriedly hid the ticket number and left in a hurry.

The people who came out were all excited and happy, while those who were still waiting at the door were apprehensive, apprehensive and envious.

I remember that just a few days ago, almost everyone was complaining about this license plate, but now.

Really fragrant!

The sudden restriction on the number of military patrol shops made many people nervous.

This also confirms what Zhang Fei said, that in the future, licenses may be restricted to ensure the number of horses and chariots in Bianjing.

This thing is vaguely expensive.

The fewer cars and horses, the more valuable the license plate is!

This account is not difficult to sort out.

On the other side of the street, two old men silently watched all this.

It was Sima Guang and Wen Yanbo.

Sima Guang said, "Would Mr. Wen go in and have a look?"

"never mind!"

Wen Yanbo waved his hands and walked forward again, frowning tightly, as if thinking about something.

Sima Guang glanced at him and said, "What is Duke Wen thinking?"

Wen Yanbo said: "I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't tell."

Sima Guang laughed and said, "Did Wen Gong think 'fast'?"

"quick?"

Wen Yanbo said in surprise.

Sima Guang nodded and said: "The news was published yesterday, and the process of registering cards has been changed. Today, the common people come here to collect ticket numbers. If it is changed to the imperial court, it will take half a month at least, and a month at most."

Wen Yanbo nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes, yes! That's what's special. I can understand Zhang San's method. Rare things are precious. The fewer opportunities he gives, the more everyone wants to get them sooner.

But his execution ability is really jaw-dropping. He was able to make such a big change in such a complicated matter in just one day, and he was successful. "

Sima Guang said: "It's all because of the genuine bookstore."

Wen Yanbo nodded slightly: "Movable type printing has been around for a long time, but no one has used it. The imperial court also tried it, but they all gave up, but it shines with him."

Speaking of this, he said again: "It's not just the printing technique, but also his symbols, ordinary people can memorize them in a while, and it's really more convenient!"

Sima Guang lowered his brows and said: "But this doesn't mean that their execution is good. It's hard to set rules, and it's even more difficult to follow them. The real test of the military tour shop depends on the future. He made the rules." Whether such cumbersome rules can be well implemented is still unclear at this time."

Wen Yanbo nodded, and suddenly heard a commotion ahead, he looked up and saw many people gathered around a big willow tree, "What are you doing up front?"

The two couldn't help but quicken their pace.

When I came to the big willow tree, I saw a patrolman in uniform climbed up to the trunk and tied a wooden sign to the trunk. On the wooden sign was a carriage and a slanted pole.

"What's the meaning of this card?"

Wen Yanbo and Sima Guang looked at each other.

Sima Guang asked a young man who was watching: "Brother, what are you doing?"

The little brother hurriedly said: "Put up a warning sign, and there is a warning sign. From now on, no vehicles or horses can go to that lane."

As he spoke, he pointed to a side road.

Another person said: "This is really a good thing. I live in it. This alley is not wide, but it is a shortcut from the left side to Xiangguo Temple and Lushi Alley. People who burn incense and worship Buddha this morning go this way." Let’s go, the horse’s bell is disturbing the people, and when we go to drink in Record Alley in the evening, we also go this way, and often bump into the people living there.”

After hearing this, Wen Yanbo said to Sima Guang in a low voice: "It seems that this three is going to do something big!"

Sima Guang laughed and said, "Yes! He didn't lie. He really does what he does and loves what he does!"

They thought that Zhang Fei just wanted to get a license plate, but they never expected that Zhang Fei would also need traffic control.

This is really getting bigger and bigger.

Suddenly there was a snap.

I heard another exclamation, but seeing a lump of mud hitting the wooden sign, I couldn't see the warning on it clearly.

Wen Yanbo and Sima Guang were startled, and looked around again.

"who?"

The patrolman on the tree immediately jumped down, and there were three other patrolmen around him, who also came over quickly, and they immediately surrounded a handsome young man.

The young man was not afraid, and took out a silk handkerchief, wiping his hands unhurriedly, "Who gave you this power?"

But seeing a patrolman directly grabbing his wrist with one hand, "Sorry. This is evidence and cannot be wiped."

His young man's expression was startled, as if he didn't expect the other party to attack directly.

The servant next to him immediately stood up to protect the lord, "Bastards! You bird people, how dare you do anything to my yamen."

Generally, those who can be called yamen are the children of the generals of the three yamen, and they are either the top leader or the second leader.

But the four patrolmen pretended not to hear it, and directly arrested the master and servant.

The yamen was also in a daze, he had never seen such an arrogant patrolman before, after he was caught, he realized, while struggling, he yelled: "Let go of me quickly, my father is Marshal Ma, here is us The territory under the jurisdiction of the guard horse, do you want to rebel?"

I saw the leading patrolman, leaning sideways and sinking his shoulders, "My police number is 007. If there is any dissatisfaction in the office, you can go to the Legal Aid Department to sue me. Take it away."

Wen Yanbo and Sima Guang looked at each other.

When did the always humble patrolman become so handsome.

Sima Guang suddenly said cheerfully: "This time there is a good show to watch."

Original bookstore.

"what?"

Zhang Fei looked at Wang Anshi in surprise, "Scholar Wang wants us to help you promote the New Deal?"

Wang Anshi nodded with a smile: "Exactly. When the time comes, your news paper will help us formulate and issue new regulations from the Second Government Regulations Department."

Zhang Fei asked: "Scholar Wang, shouldn't this be published in the residence newspaper?"

Wang Anshi gave him an annoyed look, "If the Di Bao is up to the challenge, I might as well come to you. Nowadays, they are still copied by hand when they enter the Zouyuan, which really makes me mad."

This time he can be regarded as understanding that the propaganda power of this tabloid is really a bit exaggerated!

In comparison, last time the Di Bao suffered a disastrous loss, and even missed his good article for nothing.

He really couldn't accept it, so he thought about using this tabloid to publicize his new law.

You, a front office officer, can use the tabloids to get this license plate on the ground. My New Deal, after all, was done by me when I participated in political affairs. Wouldn't it be easier.

Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said, "Scholar Wang, regarding the New Deal, it is a major national event, and I think it should be posted on the residence newspaper, so that it looks authoritative."

Wang Anshi said: "That's what I thought at the beginning, but you also know what the result is. Why don't I admit defeat now?"

He has a very stubborn character, and it is very difficult to get him to admit defeat, but the gap is too big, it is really visible to the naked eye, he has to accept it! .

Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "Scholar Wang misunderstood what I meant. I mean, we should find ways to improve Jinzhaoyuan. The imperial court must have its own newspaper and should not rely entirely on the people."

Wang Anshi looked at Zhang Fei in surprise, "I really misunderstood you."

Zhang Fei said in astonishment, "What did you misunderstand me?"

"It's nothing."

Wang Anshi waved his hand. In fact, that was what he thought at the beginning. He wanted to develop the Dibao, but the result was a disastrous failure. However, he always believed that Zhang Fei definitely did not support him in this matter, so he never discussed it with Zhang Fei at that time. , I had no other choice later, so I asked Zhang Fei for help.

Today he realized that Zhang Fei thought the same as him.

"Sigh, I have already ordered the Academy to improve it, but the progress has been slow so far. I have also asked. It will take at least half a year to perfect this movable type printing technique, and it is already too late."

Wang Anshi shook his head and sighed helplessly.

Zhang Fei said: "It may be that the money is not in place. Only with heavy rewards can there be brave men."

Wang Anshi said: "Who said that? I have invited the officials to allocate some funds to enter the courtyard."

Zhang Fei said: "But I don't think these funds are very large, at least the craftsmen didn't get any benefits."

Wang Anshi looked at Zhang Fei suspiciously, "What are you trying to say, kid?"

Zhang Fei said: "Scholar Wang should also know that I recently established a charity organization here."

Wang Anshi nodded and said, "I saw it in the newspaper."

Zhang Fei said: "Our charitable organization not only donates money to help the people, but also has a project, which is to donate to the imperial court."

Wang Anshi was shocked and said, "Donate to the imperial court?"

Your charity is a bit outrageous, and it's all done by the court.

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Yes, we also know that the court is short of money, so we want to help the court."

After Wang Anshi heard this, he really didn't know whether he should be moved to tears, or he should scold Zhang Fei, who do you look down on.He asked with a smile, "How much money does your charity have?"

Zhang Fei said: "There is not much money at present, that is, twenty to thirty thousand."

Wang Anshi snorted, "With this little money, you still want to help the court, but it's not enough to help the common people!"

Zhang Fei said: "If you have little money, there is a relief method with little money."

Wang Anshi was quite interested and said, "I would like to hear the details."

Zhang Fei said: "As far as I know, many tools that are beneficial to people's livelihood were developed by the imperial court, so we plan to focus on donating to such projects.

It is said that it is helping the imperial court, but in fact it is still donating to the people. The imperial court has developed better tools, and the common people have also benefited.It's like saying movable type printing, which is also a technology that is beneficial to the people. We can directly donate to this project so that the imperial court can obtain this technology as soon as possible. "

Others may dismiss this theory, but Wang Anshi's eyes light up. His economic philosophy also includes the development of some technologies, such as water conservancy projects, which he attaches great importance to. How to do it?"

Zhang Fei said: "It's very simple. Our charity organization directly cooperates with the Jinzuo Academy to provide research and development funds for the Jinzuo Academy. However, we will not give this funding to any officials, and mainly reward those craftsmen or civil servants who have made great achievements in research and development."

Wang Anshi nodded and said, "I think this can be done."

There is no reason why people donate money for free.Wang Anshi is not afraid of losing face.

But as he said that, Wang Anshi said again: "However, I still leave it to you to publicize my new law. Hehe, many people think that the success of your license plate depends entirely on the tabloids, but I know that tabloids alone are not enough." , or make some means.

When you asked Fan Chunren to write an article to scold your license plate, it was really wonderful!Your scolding caused those who opposed you to be forced to support your news paper. As a result, your news paper won the hearts of the people, so that the people did not dare to question what you posted later! "

"You really can't hide anything from Senior Scholar Wang." Zhang Fei smiled coyly, and said again: "Since Senior Scholar Wang likes the small shop so much, the small shop is naturally obligatory, but it's only at this price."

Wang Anshi waved his hand and said, "I won't take this money from you."

Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, and said, "Aren't you going to accept me?"

Cursing in my heart, is your face made of steel?You begged me to do something, but still didn't take my money.

Wang Anshi said: "What? You still want to ask me for money?"

"Uh."

Wang Anshi's tone made Zhang Fei unable to open his mouth, "I just didn't make it clear, why should I give money to Master Wang?"

Wang Anshi said with a chuckle: "You should know how many people pay attention to my new policy. If my new policy is published in your newspaper, your news paper will be published in Qiongzhou, and you will not worry about selling it. Shouldn't you give it to me?" money?"

so shrewd?Zhang Fei's expression changed, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Senior Scholar Wang, for taking care of me, thank you Senior Scholar Wang for taking care of me."

Wang Anshi snorted and said, "If I didn't value your ability, I would have found another place. Believe it or not, your genuine bookstore will be in ruins by then."

"Believe in letter!"

"You have to donate a little of this money."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Zhang Fei nodded hurriedly, thinking, you have collected my money, will you have the nerve to ask me for taxes then?Hey hey.

At this moment, someone gasped in front of the door: "Zhang San, are you in the house?"

It was Tao Yonghan's voice.

"exist."

The door was pushed open immediately, and Tao Yonghan had just entered, when he suddenly saw Wang Anshi sitting inside, his legs gave way in fright, "The villain has seen Grand Scholar Wang."

Wang Anshi said: "There is no need to be too polite."

Zhang Fei asked: "What's the matter?"

Tao Yonghan blinked.

Zhang Fei stood up and walked over, Tao Yonghan dragged him out of the door.

After a while, Zhang Fei returned to the house and said to Wang Anshi: "Scholar Wang, I have something urgent to deal with."

Wang Anshi asked, "Do you need my help?"

Zhang Fei said: "That's not necessary."

Wang Anshi said: "Then you should deal with it quickly, I just happen to be going back soon."

But when Zhang Fei left, Wang Anshi thought to himself, that old man was also wearing a patrol uniform just now, maybe there was something wrong with the license plate, and I have to take a look.
