"Paper? Yes, with this kind of printing, you need paper. I believe your Highness has an idea. "
Compared with lathes and hydraulic hammers, printing and paper making are much simpler. Xiao Ming said, "what you see is just for paper mills and printing mills."
On the one hand, Xiao Ming took Pang Yukun to see the refiner and pressure screen for papermaking. With these equipment, the efficiency of the papermaking workshop will be greatly improved.
Then, Xiao Ming takes Pang Yukun to a typeset version.
Pang Yukun looked in front of the standing board and said in surprise: "Your Highness, these are the orders of garrison and conscription. As for other things that happened recently in Qingzhou, does your highness want to print them into a book?"
"No, this is a newspaper." Xiao Ming said with a smile.
Next, he will carry out a very important work, public opinion propaganda, which naturally spreads his image of Wei Guang Zheng and conveys various decrees to the people.
At the same time, it can also let the people know some current affairs, so that the people can feel what he is doing for them, so as to strengthen the people's support for him.
In Xiao Ming's view, public opinion in any era is a position to seize, otherwise if he does not grasp public opinion, public opinion will be controlled by others.
It is precisely because of this that the enemy will have the opportunity to take advantage of the rhetoric to achieve peace and prosperity.
Once the newspaper spread in his fiefdom, he could refute the folk rumors in time, and also dominate the public opinion.
"Your Highness, please make it clear." Now Pang Yukun, like other people in Qingzhou, is very humble in front of Xiao Ming.
Because he found that the king of Qi knew everything.
Xiao Ming then talked about the role of newspapers with Pang Yukun.
Pang Yukun was much shocked when he saw printing. He said: "with the important tools of this country, why worry that people in the world don't know your highness."
Xiao Ming said with a smile: "this newspaper will not be used to brag about Wang's achievements. At the bottom of this page are the smuggling case in Cangzhou and the killing of 72 people in Dengzhou."
"If this matter is spread among the people, they will certainly hate the local aristocrats. It is wonderful to praise your Highness's achievements. For a long time, as long as your highness works hard, he will not worry that the people will not support him." The more Pang Yukun said, the more excited he was.
In the past, Xiao Ming did something mechanical. He didn't understand it, but when it comes to government affairs, Pang Yukun suddenly understood it.
Xiao Ming nodded, which was his goal, but he said: "it's a pity that there are too few literate people in the feudal land. This newspaper can only be circulated in the government."
"What's the matter, your highness? There will be some poor scholars among the six states. They often sell calligraphy and paintings and copy books for a living. Why can't your highness give them newspapers and let them go down to the States and counties to read to the people, and then give them some money."
"Well, that's a good idea." Xiao Mingxi said that Pang Yukun knew the people's feelings of the fiefdom best. He ignored that his fiefdom had many scholars.
The newspaper's idea excited both of them. Through this incident, Xiao Ming said, "by the way, Pang Changshi, there's something I'd like to tell you all the time. It's about the army."
When it comes to the army, Pang Yukun looks serious, because the army is always a sensitive topic.
"Your Highness, this army is under the jurisdiction of Lu Xiaowei. Is there anything your highness is worried about?" Pang Yukun said cautiously.
Xiao Ming said: "now that there are 30000 people in the iron and steel workshop, the following is the time to provide equipment for the army. Once the equipment becomes an army, the Qingzhou army will be a tiger with sharp teeth. This tiger must be in the hands of the king. Therefore, the king wants to strengthen the power of long history in the army."
Changshi was originally a civilian in the military institution of dudufu, but only Dufu was equipped with a Changshi.
But for Xiao Ming, this is far from enough. Because of the blocking of information, the probability of military mutiny in this era is very high.
So it's dangerous to give an army to a military man who has a simple mind and is prone to conflict. Now he has to copy the political commissar system in the modern army, and his political commissar is a long history.
He wants long history to go down to the grass-roots level of the army, and each level is equipped with a long history to be responsible for ideological propaganda.
In this way, the army can become a body and a head. The general is responsible for leading military operations. The commander must obey orders and not interfere.
Chang Shi was responsible for the ideological discipline of the army, ensured Xiao Ming's absolute leadership over the army, and could dethrone the general at a critical moment when he wanted to rebel.
In the Department of equipment, Xiao Ming tells Pang Yukun that Pang Yukun nods frequently. Whether it's newspapers or long history, it shows that Xiao Ming wants to control the fiefdom absolutely.
In Pang Yukun's view, Xiao Ming is also taking precautions.
"Your Highness, it's just that we need a lot of readers." Said Pang.
"Isn't reading for the sake of the country? Now I've given them the chance. They don't need the imperial examination. They just need training and competition. Isn't that good? "Although he didn't understand the meaning of training and competition, Pang Yukun knew that Xiao Ming was recruiting talents.
He said: "in this case, the people of the governor's office issued a notice to call on the scholars in the fiefdom to come, no matter whether they have a reputation or not. What's the matter?"
"Well, that's it." Xiao Ming said.
The two agreed that Pang Yukun left in a hurry and Changshi went deep into the army, which was tantamount to promoting Changshi's status, which was the reason why Pang Yukun didn't object.
After all, this matter is also beneficial to him, and he fully agrees with this practice. The army is a sharp sword, and it can hurt others as well as oneself, so it must be strictly controlled.
Pang Yukun is responsible for recruiting Changshi and NEWSBOY, while Xiao Ming is responsible for the production of printing and paper mills.
He was looking forward to the effect of the first newspaper of Dayu state on his fiefdom.
The next day, a notice was posted in the East and West markets of Qingzhou City, which immediately caused a great disturbance among Qingzhou scholars.
"We know the long history, but who knows what this Newsboy is?" A crowd of scholars gathered around the notice.
In front of a scholar to read out all the contents of the notice, onlookers shook their heads to leave, this matter has nothing to do with them.
"NEWSBOY, NEWSBOY, can't you be a scout for reporting military information?" A scholar straightened his back, quite complacent.
Some people respect scholars who have merit and fame. Scholars who have no merit and fame are useless in the mouth of the common people.
Many of them are still wearing patched clothes. They are from poor families, but they have failed several times.
But this kind of scholar's life is very difficult, but also is ridiculed.
Now the notice is posted, they immediately find the glory of the scholar.
