Chapter 461 A wonderful journey to Kaifeng City (2)
With the sound of "Ah~", Du Baojun, who was sitting in front of the table, faced the table full of sumptuous food, but he yawned loudly and had no appetite at all.
That wide open mouth can even put a duck egg in it.
There was no way! Du Baojun didn't sleep all night last night. As a result, after getting up in a hurry in the morning, he was naturally very sleepy.
Why didn't you sleep? Of course I read books and newspapers all night.
Specifically, he opened an upper room in this inn, washed himself thoroughly, and before he had time to eat, there was a knock on the door of the room.
When he opened the door, he saw that the child who had sold him the newspaper before had already led a man to the door.
After hurriedly flipping through two books, they were not very thick and the paper was very rough, but they were definitely good books with many provocative illustrations.
Du Baojun didn't hesitate at all and paid the money immediately.
In the following time, I just read a classic such as "Jin Ping Mei" and ate the food that the waiter delivered to the room.
I have to praise here, Fatty Huang, whose pen name is Huan Sheng.
God knows! How many times has this guy rehearsed this famous book?
The famous book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was still written in half-written drafts from memory, and finally it was polished by two old scholars from the Hanlin Academy before it finally took shape.
But "Jin Ping Mei" was written on my own by relying on the deep memories in my head. It is exactly the same as the original work, and it is also written roughly the same.
God knows! This guy was in the modern dimension and secretly watched it over and over again so many times.
So much so that when I wrote it, I felt like I was memorizing it backwards.
When I was in school, if this guy had this kind of energy, he would have graduated from a prestigious school, entered a large company, and become a salary earner with an annual salary. Why would he have to work as a data clerk on a construction site?
Of course, the above is not important.
The important thing is that although Du Baojun didn't drink alcohol when he had dinner, he still felt more relaxed when he ate with such a good book than after drinking nectar.
It also seems to have more flavor than going to Wase to really enjoy the experience.
He just read through it with such devotion, until he saw the twenty-seventh chapter, when Li Ping'er whispered about the Jade Pavilion, and Pan Jinlian was drunk and making noise in the grape trellis.
I couldn't help but slap the table hard and exclaimed:
"What a fantasy saint. The pen in his hand not only writes all the wonderful things between the romance and the moon; he also writes people's hearts and all kinds of life.
It’s a pity that everyone’s magic dragon has seen its beginning but not its end. I don’t know if I will be lucky enough to ask for advice in person~”
In fact, at this time, Du Baojun still has some tricks up his sleeve.
Hearing the sound of the watchman coming from outside the window, it was already midnight, that is, around one-thirty in the middle of the night, and he knew he had to go to sleep immediately.
Otherwise, I won't be energetic when I get up tomorrow, and I'm afraid I'll miss important business events.
But due to some understandable reasons, Du Baojun was so restless at this moment that he couldn't fall asleep immediately after going to bed.
So he picked up the "Song Dynasty Times" and started reading from the ninth chapter of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
I plan to spend a quarter of an hour and read the content once or twice to calm down my mood and then sleep well.
The problem is that the essential purpose of the Song Dynasty Times, which Huang Yizhi took the lead in publishing, is to bring in private goods and occupy the right to speak, rather than to make a small amount of money.
This thing comes out every two days and is printed and distributed using movable type printing.
In the first eight issues, in order to paralyze the old feudal forces of this era, apart from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" which was used to attract people, the others were some official documents from the court and trivial gossip.
For example, why did the sixty-year-old woman become pregnant again, why did the bellyband in the house disappear, and so on.
By the time the ninth issue came out, the sales volume had dropped from the initial 500 copies of the first issue to the 3,000 copies of the eighth issue that were sold out early.
At this time, Fatty Huang wanted to include some of his personal stuff in the newspaper.
After some thought, this guy started to write "New Chapter of Zhizheng"; relying on his few relevant memories and mostly based on his own understanding of this aspect, he made it up on the spot.
The so-called "New Chapter of Zizheng" is a book written by Hong Renxuan during the Qing Dynasty. It can be regarded as a modern program for the development of capitalism under the conditions at that time.
The specific guiding ideology is: to govern a country, we must first establish politics, and to govern we must obtain funds.
Such an idea may not be very powerful for other people; but for Du Baojun, who is currently just a businessman, it simply speaks to his heart.
It is not an exaggeration to think that he has fully stated some of the things that all businessmen look forward to most, and that he is his life mentor.
After first seeing the author, who was his idol Master Huan Sheng, Du Baojun only planned to take a few glances at it, but once he saw it, he became completely fascinated.
After he read the content about the "Administration News" in the latest issue of the newspaper, he realized that such a masterpiece, which was a masterpiece to him, was only half published.
But the explosive new thinking made Du Baojun unable to sleep at all.
Unknowingly, when I woke up to the crow of the rooster, I realized that the sky outside the window was getting brighter. Good guy! There is no need to sleep now...
****
After hurriedly eating some morning food, Du Baojun cheered up and went out, even though he was very tired.
After asking around all the way, we walked towards the Commerce Department Yamen in the inner city.
It was at this point that he finally realized: Damn it! Yesterday I watched "The Plum in the Golden Vase" and "The New Chapter of the Government" and saw bad things.
Because what kind of office is this new bureau, the Department of Commerce, who is in charge of it, and what are their hobbies? I forgot to ask about these.
But now that we have reached this point, we can only bite the bullet and go take a look first.
At around 4 o'clock in the morning, that is, more than a quarter of an hour before nine o'clock in the morning, Du Baojun came to the so-called Commerce Department Yamen.
After handing over a note written for him by several minor officials from the Duti Jusi Department yesterday, he was pointed into a large hall.
Only then did he realize that there were already hundreds of chairs placed in such a hall.
Most of the chairs are now occupied by people.
Based on Du Baojun's experience, judging from the appearance and temperament of these people, they are all businessmen without exception, and they all do a lot of business and have some means in various places.
After randomly finding an empty chair and sitting down, Du Baojun started chatting with several people around him based on his long-term communication skills.
Sure enough, as he expected, these people are all well-known big businessmen from various places.
For example, the fat man on the left, with his eyes narrowed when he smiles, is actually a wealthy businessman from Sichuan-Shaanxi Fourth Road.
This time I came to Kaifeng City, but I brought a lot of Sichuan brocade and tea.
Behind him, there was an old man with a greasy face, like an old farmer. He came from Qinfeng Road near Xixia, but he was in the business of war horses and large livestock.
Let’s not talk about big animals, but just the fifty Ganqing horses brought this time, for Song Dynasty, which is currently short of horses, each one can be sold for a big price.
In short, it was an unexpected surprise to meet them today.
If we can cooperate in the future, it will be of great benefit to both parties.
Everyone realized this for a while, and after deliberately making friends, they were like old friends for many years, and they were extraordinarily affectionate.
Under such circumstances, a long and long singing sound suddenly sounded from the back hall:
"The right minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the director of the Department of Commerce, and the noble concubine have arrived~"
In such a shout, Du Baojun suddenly felt excited all over, "Noble Concubine"? Could it be the legendary heroine next to Hu Yitong?
The new dynasty is so bold. Not only is the emperor a female emperor, but even the court officials can use women?
Such doubts disappeared from Du Baojun's mind after the imperial concubine entered the hall.
It's not that he doesn't accept the fact that a woman can actually serve as a member of the imperial court, but his mind is completely blank and he has no time to want any of this.
That's because after the imperial concubine walked in, although she had an elegant posture and a grand smile on her face, she definitely didn't have those charming and charming looks.
But after seeing those picturesque eyebrows and the extremely domineering figure under the luxurious skirt.
Obviously, in the past time, this scholar who only liked peace and evil had softened except for one spot on his body.
This woman is indeed worthy of being called the legendary oiran, she is so terrifying...
