Chapter 349: Little Things on the Journey (Part 2)
It was the evening when Zhuo Yunfeng came to see Ning Yi. Before that, Ning Yi was considering the issue of establishing a huge public opinion system in the Wu Dynasty, and had already reached a point of distress.
Regarding the steps for Ning Yi to go to Beijing, the first step is of course to deal with Liangshan, but the fundamental purpose is to begin to deal with the Jingkang or similar disasters that may come in a few years or the Jin people going south. For a country,
In fact, most things are done step by step.
In order to enrich the country and strengthen the army, the things to be done are actually similar in the general direction. People's abilities are actually reflected in countless details. But of course, there are also some things that can fundamentally change things and find a fulcrum.
Leverage the overall situation, such as reform.
However, Ning Yi is not sensitive to changes in the overall situation. He does not dare to get involved in matters of this level. What he can do in Beijing this time is his ability in many details, his experience in running a company, and his logistics.
Management and coordination, solutions to various small problems
Decision, the use of conspiracy, as long as there is no big change in human nature, he will not mess up anything he does. After all, business war is a confrontation between people using all possible means. But besides this, there is another
It could determine the fundamental blank space that he considered filling.
The steps are as follows. After coming to Beijing, with Qin Siyuan's approval and his previous experience, "Bamboo Records" was rolled out across the country as quickly as possible. Even though each era has its own characteristics, in
With the support of the state apparatus, many modern shopping mall experiences could still be used in the Wu Dynasty. This is a question.
The title is not big, and then based on "Bamboo Records", a huge storytelling and entertainment industry is launched, targeting the people who are completely illiterate country people, which is more than 90% of the people in the Wu Dynasty today.
The whole group of people who have no right to speak. In this category, there should be no counterattack from the aristocratic class for a while.
To spread such a thing, of course, the conditions that need to be met include the establishment of various standards, the standardization of training systems, the reduction of production costs, and the reduction of losses in circulation channels. Just as supermarkets gradually replaced department stores in later generations, and online stores began to be crowded.
The process of suppressing the entire real market.
Even though the Wu Dynasty does not yet have the foundation for the development of capitalism, Ning Yi still has more than an era of usable experience in his hands. As long as he is not suppressed at the political level for a while, Zhuji can spread like locusts everywhere.
Spread out quickly. How to deal with the government, pay bribes, and how to deal with gangs in a place. These things also have extremely professional methods in the developed capitalist system of later generations.
When he really wants to release these things, Zhuji may be like the first piranha entering the freshwater system. As for the harm it will do after it reproduces, Ning Yi doesn't care for the time being. But relying on Zhuji, this entertainment system
They will promote some extremely simple and cheap truths to the entire society, such as "The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people", and in a few years will lead the green forest and grass bandits in the entire society to the north.
The current Wu Dynasty does not have an adequate public opinion monitoring and propaganda system. Although there must be literary prisons in every dynasty and every generation, they still target scholars who are less than 10% of the population. The propaganda system is almost non-existent.
In particular, no one will promote anything to the common people at the bottom of society. Those people who have their backs turned to the sky may not have heard of it a few times in their lives.
Stories. What Jianghu people, green forest bandits and the like really listen to are some simple storytellers and operas. The stories in these things are simple and straightforward, but most of them do not deliberately guide public opinion. At most, they are just some stories.
People love to hear stories about pleasure, revenge, swordsmanship, love affairs, and other erotic stories and adventures. It is simply a virgin land that has not yet been cultivated.
However, as later generations know, many patriotic poems and parallel prose written by literati may attract applause from a group of scholars if placed in the court or at a literary meeting, but if they are placed at the bottom of society, to put it bluntly, who knows what you are promoting?
What? How many of the people in the green forest can read the division list, and how many of them understand its meaning. How many of the people who hold hoes and serve as soldiers are filled with sorrow and anger because of Du Fu's poems.
The entire Wu Dynasty society at this time was extremely simple, and illiterate people were much easier to fool than the otakus of later generations who were accustomed to using the Internet. In just a few years, people would have a greater sense of concern for the country, even if it was not fundamentally possible.
Get rid of those green forest mountains
Bandits and martial arts people, but as long as the overall situation is tilted a little, the combined power is enough to promote the entire society. In this sense, raising a group of people to write novels and dramas is far better than raising a few top literati to write poems that are handed down for generations.
It's cost-effective.
This is the only fulcrum that Ning Yi can think of that may be able to leverage the entire society without disturbing the privileged class too much. But there are still many problems. The most important thing is that he is hesitant to let the Wu Dynasty master this kind of nuclear weapons.
Things. He once told Liu Xigua how to brainwash low-level soldiers, and also told Lu Hongti
Publicity is too important, but to be honest, a convenient public opinion propaganda system that covers the entire society is the best basis for these things to be truly implemented. But if it really works, whether it is Ba Daoying or Luliang Mountain, it will be better in the future.
Life will only become more miserable. This is a frog boiled in warm water. No matter how hard you try to prevent it, you can't prevent it.
Ning Yi doesn't know what his relationship with the Wu Dynasty will be like in the future. He just wants to stop the Jin people from going south, but there are some things that he has thought about since he started to do things. He will definitely offend people in the future, maybe offend a lot of people.
Man, he is not a good old man who cares about serving the country and the people. I think
He has to do things because he sees people like Qian Xiwen, Liu Xigua, and Chen Fan. There are people like this that he can identify with and are worth saving. But if many things come back to him in the end, he will also
He would never sit still and wait for death. This was the worst outcome he had ever imagined.
For this reason, when the concept of the public opinion propaganda system was basically completed, he hesitated a little, and then made sketchy modifications. When Zhuo Yunfeng came to see him, the matter was just about to get to the point. However, the other party came to ask for it.
It seems that it is no small matter.
"I know Zhou Pei is nearby, in the room where Mr. Ning originally lived."
He introduced Zhuo Yunfeng into the room and sat down, and poured him a glass of water. Sure enough, after sitting down, the young man in front of him said straight to the point, exactly this matter. Such direct words made Ning Yi think.
After a slight pause, he nodded, holding the brush in his hand, watching the other party continue.
"The princess and I have known each other since we were children. I know what she is thinking. From two years ago, when Prince Kang's palace first prepared to choose a husband for her, she felt a little reluctant.
I know her temperament. She wants to see more people and things, but she will always feel that it is not enough just to see Jiang Ning. Mr. Ning also knows that the princess is very smart, and most men... are actually...
No better than her."
When Zhuo Yunfeng said this, he looked at Ning Yi and saw that the other party was looking at him and smiling, but he also nodded. In fact, Ning Yi's reaction surprised him. Regarding coming to see Ning Yi this time,
He has thought over and over what he wants to say many times. He plans to make the other person happy with his first sentence.
He was so shocked that Ning Yi's reaction was dull. He felt that he had underestimated the smart man. But when he thought about it, the other party's heart must have been turned upside down. It's just that he did a good job of hiding his emotions and anger.
Sometimes smiling and nodding should be a symbol of chaos in the heart.
He didn't know that Ning Yi was thinking about how to persuade Qin Siyuan to devote enough political resources to Zhu Ji without publicity as a reason. But in his opinion, as long as he didn't promote it vigorously, even if Qin Siyuan knew that propaganda was useful, he should
I won’t pay too much attention to the entertainment industry in restaurants. Anyway, what Zhuji wants to do is simple, it is nothing more than to make a lot of money, and then hire people to tell stories and sing operas all day long, but he only controls the content himself. In addition... this Zhuo Yunfeng looks like
It's quite smart.
"In the early days, the palace was pressuring her harder for this matter. When she talked to me in private, she already had the intention to run away. But she was not very determined yet. But this time... I think about it.
I have really made a decision. I was just guessing at first, but I just confirmed it yesterday. I know that the princess has always admired Mr. Ning’s talent and learning. But I don’t know how she convinced him... I shouldn’t have said it at this time.
too
Many, but friends. Mr. Ning, this matter is related to the reputation of the princess. King Kang is about to choose a son-in-law, but she escapes from home. Originally, going north is not a big deal, but if people know...knowing that the princess is her
She was in the same room with so and so. Mr. Ning, I’m going to be more serious about this matter. In the end, I was afraid that she would hurt others and herself. It’s not okay for me to mention this to others, but Mr. Ning has to take precautions.”
What Zhuo Yunfeng said was of course a relatively euphemistic way of saying it. Among Zhou Pei's friends, he was quite outstanding in terms of mental character and wisdom, but he was also quite proud. Zhou Pei declined the invitation from his family for the first time.
After proposing the marriage, Zhuo Yunfeng never mentioned the matter again. He was very impressed with Zhou Pei's character.
Too clear, knowing that Zhou Pei has been influenced by Kang Xian since he was a child, and he admires those who are capable and talented, but the girl's nature always feels that there are many better scenery in the world, if he cannot be at the highest level
It is difficult to win the other person's heart by proving your ability.
The highest level stage is naturally the capital.
From many previous events, it was guessed that Zhou Pei had the intention of running away from home and going to Beijing. Later, Ning Yi's return probably deepened her idea of putting the plan into practice. From the earlier conversations, Zhuo Yunfeng probably
Guessing this, he decided to go to Beijing. This idea was of course a bit risky. Fortunately, it was confirmed in the past two days that the little princess had really done such an outrageous thing, so his escape was not in vain.
In his original plan, the best thing might be that he would help and take care of the little princess along the way to Beijing, and then convince everyone with his poetry and literary talent in Bianliang. At the same time, he could also temporarily show his prominence among the royal family members. Unfortunately, it is certain that Zhou Pei lives in
In Ning Yi's room, he felt something was wrong. This time he came to Qian Yuan
I originally thought of two possibilities, either the two are really just a master-disciple relationship, or... Ning Yi is only six or seven years older than Zhou Pei. He is talented, and the little princess has always admired him. If this pair
It's hard to tell if the master and apprentice have something shady going on secretly.
So he came to look for Ning Yi, and there was actually a hint in his words. Zhou Pei went to Beijing on the boat, and if he had a little relationship with you on the way, Zhou Pei might be mentioned for his reputation, but if Prince Kang really initiated
I really can't handle the storm. After all, it's still you, Ning Yi.
While he was talking, he looked at Ning Yi's expression and saw that Ning Yi occasionally nodded or frowned in thought. Although he was not shocked, he was obviously aware of the horror of the problem. He was also a member of the royal family, and so on.
The ability to hint, strike, and observe subtle details has been cultivated since childhood. At this time, he knew that his goal had been achieved, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud. If Ning Yi was smart enough and wanted to get out of these things, he would have to make some deals with himself.
In the end, the existence of the little princess will still be announced, and the best way is to show that the little princess is with him. Ning Yi is a white man. He can't bear the gossip that he is on the same road as the princess, but he can.
, and from then on, all the dignitaries on the ship would subconsciously draw their relationship with the little princess together. These gossips would naturally accumulate weight in the heart of the little princess.
With this in mind, he said a few words about the relationship between his family and the princess. Then, he saw Ning Yi also nodded. He stood up over there and said, "That makes sense." Zhuo Yunfeng was stunned.
He didn't expect him to speak too clearly, but after saying this, the next development was quite unexpected. Ning Yi led him outside and patted the door of the next door.
Zhuo Yunfeng heard him say: "Zhou Pei, are you there?"
Zhuo Yunfeng couldn't help but froze. Tiny but gentle footsteps could be heard in the room: "Yes, sir, I have something to do..." It was Zhou Pei's brisk tone that he had almost never heard before. As he said,
The girl in the room opened the door, and then
Later, she was slightly stunned. Zhou Pei was wearing a rather common dress at this time, which she borrowed from Xiaochan. But for some reason, Xiaochan was wearing beautiful and elegant clothes.
There was something really out of place about her.
Zhou Pei was quite natural around Ning Yi on weekdays, and even felt a little bit indifferent, but when he saw Zhuo Yunfeng, he suddenly calmed down, lowered his head slightly, and pulled up his open coat - in fact
The inner one was also a coat. But Zhou Pei's body seemed a little weak now. She wore two pieces, and the outer one was not buttoned. After subconsciously pulling up the clothes, she lowered her head: "What..."
"If someone is looking for your friend, please entertain him yourself."
"……Um."
Zhou Pei glanced at Zhuo Yunfeng and nodded slightly. Zhuo Yunfeng also didn't know how to deal with it at this time. This was supposed to be a conversation between men. He had predicted Ning Yi's mood and response.
I had anticipated various responses, but just because
He was cautious and solemn in his heart, but he never thought that Ning Yi would just push him directly to Zhou Pei. What should he say now... He was meeting Zhou Pei, Ning Yi frowned and thought for a while, then asked
Zhou Peidao: "What happened just now?"
"No, no." Zhou Pei shook his head, then saw that Ning Yi was about to leave, and said, "I will talk to you later..."
"Oh." Ning Yi nodded and went back. For a while, he didn't bother to care about the disputes between young men and women like Zhou Pei and Zhuo Yunfeng. He just thought in his heart that Zhou Pei certainly looked like a princess and a princess when he wore those expensive clothes.
With a noble temperament, she looks like a village girl after wearing Xiaochan's clothes, but she is also quite interesting.
If these things in his mind were to be overhauled, it would be difficult to really settle down for a while. After thinking for a while, he heard the conversation of a young man and woman next door, which seemed vaguely not very affectionate. Zhuo Yunfeng was speaking.
Although Ning Yi was high-spirited in front of him, he was a little upset when it came to Zhou Pei.
He felt helpless. In Ning Yi's opinion, it was obviously because Zhuo Yunfeng liked Zhou Pei that he was like this. He thought that if Zhou Pei came to see him later, he would like to say a few words, don't miss out on a good marriage because of being too high-minded and too low-handed.
Zhuo Yunfeng still looks pretty good for his age.
After a while, Xiaochan, who had been out for a while, had also returned. She had gone out to see how Su Wenyu's seasickness was getting better. Since it was docked at Xuyi that day, Ning Yi asked Su Wenyu, who was severely seasick, to get off the ship and seek medical treatment to avoid further torture.
.This time in Beijing, the Su family dispatched only a dozen people including servants and maids. Xiaochan sent everyone
She has a clear grasp of everyone's situation, and she can be regarded as taking over Su Tan'er's mantle, with the demeanor of a "little mistress of the house". Ning Yi poured her a cup of tea, and she sat on the bedside holding a teacup and reported everyone's situation.
As she talked and talked, her bun swayed cutely on the back of her head, Ning Yi tilted her head and looked at it for a while, and then smiled and told her about Zhou Pei's suitor.
After dinner not long after, there was still no further news about the young lord. The lights were brightly lit on this side of the pier, there was lively singing on the stage, and the lights on several large ships were connected together. Zhou Pei and Zhuo Yunfeng chatted
After that, he had gone out to eat in the front hall. Ning Yi remembered that Zhou Pei seemed to want to ask him for something.
After dinner, he continued to think about things and make repairs. Xiaochan did not disturb him. He made tea for him and then went out to watch a movie. But after waiting for a while, Zhou Pei hadn't come yet. He wanted to show up suddenly and had a lot of entertainment.
, Ning Yi got up and went out to clear his head, not wanting to wait any longer, he turned around and went to another boat to find Yunzhu and Jin'er.
He knew that Yunzhu and Jin'er didn't show up in public these days, so he walked straight to the room. When he reached the door of the room, he was slightly stunned because there was a vague sound in the room. The sound was neither Yunzhu nor Yunzhu.
Jin'er's words sounded a bit low-key, but the things they said were extremely familiar.
"...During that time, there was no one I knew around me. My uncle was alone, his injury was just healed, and he had to take me with him, a little maid who couldn't do anything to help. Miss Yunzhu, Miss Jin'er, what do you think?
Ah, in a place like Hangzhou, there are rebels all around, and there are people outside all day and night who want to kill my uncle to avenge so and so. The attitude of the Ba Dao Camp is unclear.
Chu, I really don’t know when he will be killed. But even at that time, my uncle didn’t make any embarrassed expression, and often deliberately made me happy... I just pretended to be happy, and some
Sometimes I would hide behind the house and cry secretly, but I wasn’t afraid. I just felt that my uncle was so kind... Well, now I am my husband-in-law..."
The voice of the last sentence was small, a little satisfied and a little embarrassed because she was in front of others, but she was not Xiaochan. Ning Yi could almost see the shy look on her face while touching her fingers. He would
His forehead was pressed against the bulkhead, a little speechless. He had kept Yunzhu's matter a secret from Xiaochan along the way, and had also thought about it.
Xiaochan had told him "viciously" before that he would join forces with the lady to bully other women, but he didn't expect that the two parties had already colluded. In fact, thinking about it now, when Xiaochan ran away with Ning Xi in the Su Mansion, it was Yunzhu who came out
After saving the child, with Xiaochan's temperament, it is not strange for Yunzhu to be grateful for the favor.
Just when he discovered this on the boat, Xiyuan, the largest brothel in Xuyi County, was in a state of lively singing and dancing. In a small room on the side of the main hall, a pair of eyes quietly opened.
She went out of the window and glanced at the guests who came this time, as well as the guests she arranged to wait at the door.
The waiting maid frowned slightly. When she was young, she was the focus of many children and brothel mothers. After she became famous, she was visited by admirers. For a while, she did not expect that she had been released by Ning Yi.
Pigeon - No matter what, even if it is a friendship of childhood acquaintance, he should come over!
She thought like this, and then she became a little worried. Xuyi seemed to be not at peace in the past few days. Maybe something happened to him by chance...
****************
Last month I was supposed to challenge twenty-five chapters, but in the end I still didn’t reach it. However, in terms of word count, I completed a total of 85,000 words last month, totaling twenty-one chapters, which is an update compared to the previous months.
, it is still greatly exceeded. This goal still plays a role in supervision after all. Therefore, this month I will also challenge chapters 25 to 30. If I pass chapter 25, I will ask for a monthly vote again^_^
