"Great luck! Great luck! Do your husband have any specific plans?" Even if Wen Nan had a hundred more minds and added all his minds to Wen Hao, he could not guess how cruel and dirty the teacher in front of him who was always talking about cultural exchange would have. In his opinion, what Hong Tao was going to do was even greater than inventing a cannon and a sea ship. Spreading knowledge and exploring knowledge is the highest pursuit of scholars.

"What are the specific plans? I plan to teach public classes regularly in the navigation school. If everyone is happy, they can hold some seminars regularly and express their own ideas. Whoever is right and who is wrong? Do you think someone will come to listen to it? If there are not many cats and dogs in a class, then it doesn't matter if I talk about it!" If you want to ask Hong Tao what the most powerful organ is, the mouth is the only answer. He would rather be blind and deaf than be a mute. The world where he can't speak is his doomsday. Hong Tao is not worried at all. He can pull out a few hours of free writing and prepare a lesson for a while. He said that there is no problem in the first half of the day, just give water to drink it. But whether anyone comes to listen is a big problem. The emperor takes action himself, and there is no face when there are few people.

"No, no, husband, don't worry, as long as you are willing to start classes and allow outsiders to listen, I promise that the classroom will only be crowded. I can't guarantee that Wen Hao and others will definitely come. According to the customs of the Song Dynasty, they will definitely bring friends around them. If these husbands are not enough, I can go to Lin'an to pass on the story of His Majesty. There are more than one person reading your book in the court. Although everyone has different evaluations of her husband, I think they all want to come and listen to your teachings in person." Hong Tao's arrangement made Wen Nan overjoyed, which was better than he expected. Originally, he thought the emperor was planning to play again, but now it seems that his husband is really going to go barefoot. I don't know what the stubbornness is. It was difficult to persuade him to teach two more classes, but now he has to rush up.

"Oh, then I'm relieved, but to be on the safe side, I'd better bring in a few allies. You'll go to promote this. This time I'm not only me, but also many scholars from the Great Qin and the Great Food Kingdom. Let's talk about the topic... Let's take the Great Qin Kingdom as the topic, and I'll tell you what the Great Qin Kingdom looks like!" According to Hong Tao's thief personality, even Wen Nan wouldn't feel at ease. In order to prevent the situation from being distracted, he planned to bring a few more foreign scholars together.

Sayed is currently in Kalamba Port, and the exchange scholars he had with him were still in Guangzhou and Quanzhou, so it was not difficult to take over. As for the topic of the lecture, he originally wanted to use the topic to limit the imperial power, but was afraid that the topic would be too exciting to the scholars of the Song Dynasty, so he changed it to introduce the Qin State, which would easily lead to the issue of imperial power.

"Okay, that's great! Your Majesty set a date. Nan will go back to the Song Dynasty and waving the flag for His Majesty!" When talking about this question, Wen Nan had no hard work, and he was about to leave as soon as he came back, and he wished he could start the talk tomorrow.

"Let's wait for another two months. First, the school here has not been built yet, and second, I will leave you some time to travel. During this period, you should help Bojiao to sort out the affairs of the government first. Don't forget that I am no longer the Prime Minister of the Empire. What we said just now is just our private chat. If you want to make them reality, you have to convince Bojiao first, and then convince other ministers, and finally convince the parliament that you are busy!"

"Yes, yes... it's Nan reckless. If Your Majesty has no other instructions, I will prepare first. I will report to the Prime Minister tomorrow and mention these things to him." Wen Nan patted his head. Hong Tao was right. Even if everyone in the Song Dynasty wanted to come to attend the class, he had to leave some time for others to travel. Moreover, Hong Tao reminded him correctly. These things are just Hong Tao's ideas. Unlike when he was the Prime Minister, as long as a few people privately matched each other, they could form proposals. Now everything they do has to go through procedures.

Continue to help the Song Dynasty train the new army and lend money to the Song Dynasty court to buy more muskets. These two things quickly passed the parliamentary review, and there was no objection. This was already the established national policy of the Jinhe Empire, and the interests were obvious. Hong Tao did not need to break it and tell them, and they could understand it. The current members of the parliament are no longer those who were timid and old-fashioned veterans. After many elections, many parts have been replaced by people who are younger, clearer-minded, and more willing to fight for the interests of the ethnic groups they represent.

Although these people are not as radical, passionate and impulsive as the second generation of the Jinhe Kingdom, they know better at chasing interests than they do. What is better to sell weapons than selling weapons? Not only for the Song Dynasty, muskets are about to land in Japan, but there is also a tradition of internal fighting on that island country. Even if the war has not yet begun, the empire will find ways to make them fight quickly. The guns and cannons are 10,000 taels of gold, which is what Hong Tao said in the parliament back then, and now it has become the motto of many parliamentarians. Hong Tao not only used the navigation school to train a group of little wolf cubs, but also used the parliament to train a group of war dealers.

It is said that some people have been thinking privately about how to use religious sects among the cannibals to provoke wars on the Arabian Peninsula. Although smelters, machinery factories, and foundries are currently state-owned enterprises, and they cannot afford to buy them in a short period of time, and the government cannot sell them. However, there are many small workshops around these large enterprises that provide spare parts and services, and these things are not within the control of the Emperor** workers. Once the demand for weapons soars, these supporting services will also increase, and the orders of these small workshops will also float like snowflakes. The money is not big at the national level, but put in the personal pockets, can make people die!

Starting from mid-September, news of the defeat of the new imperial army in Bianjing appeared in newspapers in many coastal cities of the Southern Song Dynasty. These newspapers were also a cultural invasion of the Southern Song Dynasty by Hong Tao. Now, whether it is a peddler or a court official, many people have the habit of reading a newspaper every few days, which can help them understand more about the current situation, policies, goods prices and other information. No matter what aspects you focus on, you can always find what you need in different newspapers.

After seven or eight years of development, newspapers have gradually formed an industry. In the city of Guangzhou alone, there are more than a dozen different newspapers, editing and publishing newspapers with different focus for different groups of people. And a newer industry has also been derived, which is a newspaper delivery person. These people who have no skills can now rely on their legs and carry several packs of newspapers every day to deliver newspapers to those who have booked newspapers, and earn a fair amount of money, which is at least enough for the whole family to have enough food.

The benefits brought by the newspaper distribution industry are more than one newspaper delivery person. In order to meet the printing needs of so many newspapers, papermaking, casting lead type, production and maintenance printing presses, and manufacturing printing special inks have all developed. The economic benefits brought by this are difficult to accurately count, but the social benefits are obvious. Many refugees do not have to wander around now and cause trouble. They can find a job with hard work, have a fixed income every day, have good luck, and learn craftsmanship more generously. After working for a few years, they can buy a small house in the suburbs of Guangzhou, and then marry a wife to settle down here.

This change is something that any court wants to see. Don’t underestimate these refugees. Resetting them will cost the court a lot of energy and financial resources. If they can be digested by the people, it will save a lot of money from the treasury. Why are you not happy? As for some of the remarks in these newspapers, the court turned a blind eye to endure it. Anyway, the people of the Song Dynasty have never been idle. They can’t say that they are just cursing the court as a pleasure. It is normal to curse a few times every now and everyone is used to it.

But this time it was a bit too much. The court did fail on the front line, but it was not the people's turn to say anything. They even pointed out that it was because of the court's blind command that tens of thousands of soldiers were gone. What made the court even more difficult for the news that the newspaper was quite reliable. Although it was not named, it was almost the same as the name of the name, which was almost repeated by the ministers at the court meeting.

In this way, the reason for the failure of this battle is clear at a glance. The court wants to divert its attention and can't make up lies and fool things around. All the truth is revealed.

It would be fine if I just scold the court. Many newspapers do not just scold, but also praise, and praise very high. Unfortunately, it was not for the court, but for more than 10,000 soldiers who died on the front line alone, and they were almost called more than 10,000 Yue Xianggong.

This is a bit too disgusting. On the one hand, he exposes the shortcomings of the court and praises the dead soldiers. When compared with the two, as long as he is not a fool, he will have this feeling: it is not that our soldiers from the Song Dynasty, nor that our weapons, nor that our war horses are not as many as the Mongols. The most important and only reason for his defeat in the battle is that the court is stupid! If there were no blind command of the court, the more than 10,000 soldiers will not only not die, but they should have cheered in the city of Bianjing.

The most terrifying thing is that this kind of ruthless news spreads very quickly, and the ones carrying them are newspapers printed with small characters. Although these newspapers are popular in coastal cities, as merchants who are used to reading newspapers flow everywhere, within a month, they can appear in any road, state, and county of the Song Dynasty. As long as they are not barren mountains and ridges and extremely inconvenient transportation, there will be small newspapers when there are roads!
