Chapter 53: Department of Writings

Listening to Zhu Youjian's speech, he used modern words very skillfully, Xiao Sheng could only sigh that young people are quick to learn things.

After hearing him, he concluded: "Your idea is very good, but you have to consider clearly the arrangements for the establishment of management personnel of the newspaper. What kind of newspaper is to handle, daily, weekly, or monthly."

"My plan is to run the government. I will set up a new department. The spread of news is authoritative. Brother, you can also set up a newspaper. As a private newspaper, we will be together, one in the official and the other in the civilian world. The public opinion in the capital can be controlled by us."

Zhu Youjian said.

After discussing the detailed contents, Xiao Sheng and Zhu Youjian made arrangements, and then Xiao Sheng left the palace to buy a house in the capital.

The newspaper must be opened in the capital, so it is necessary to buy a large house directly as an office location and a printing location.

In addition, the recruitment of content editing and typesetting editing also needs to be arranged earlier.

Today, Xiao Sheng entered the palace and there was an unexpected effect.

Now the court and the people are arguing about Xiao Sheng's new establishment of the school, but now, Xiao Sheng is recruited into the palace, which fully demonstrates his "holy favor".

It also made those people stop thinking of continuing to play.

However, Xiao Sheng's reputation in the circle of scholars is already very bad.

Everyone was talking about it, they wouldn't go to the university recruitment.

But I never thought that Xiao Sheng had no intention of recruiting these Confucian scholars who only knew how to shout.

On October 1, the seventh year of the Tianqi period, Zhu Youjian held a court meeting.

Everything was still as usual. The ministers said that there was another disaster and begged the emperor to allocate funds for disaster relief.

After arguing with the Ministry of Revenue for a while, Zhu Youjian announced the amount of disaster relief silver to be distributed.

He knew very well that one-tenth of these silver would be fine if it could be given to the victims.

But this is the case in the court now. He can’t change anything directly, because the grassroots are so bad that it’s useless to just replace the top leaders.

He would ask the Jinyiwei, who was in charge of Ma Dayong and Li Ruolian, to secretly supervise, record the amount of corruption among these people, and collect evidence.

When the time is right, get rid of all the offenses.

Zhu Youjian didn't like this link, but fortunately it passed quickly. At this time, Shi Feng, a college student in the cabinet, reported and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that there is a bookstore in Tongzhou that prints and sells classics of the sages, but there are many errors in the content, which makes the scholars angry and ruined it.

This riot is because the printing and selling of books is not controlled. I ask to establish a relevant government office to specialize in the sales of classics and writings, so as to avoid the quality of folk books and the scholars cannot truly understand the teachings of the ancestors."

Hearing this, Zhu Youjian cheered up and said, "The words of the wise men should not be misunderstood. They do need to be controlled, but this matter cannot be arranged immediately. When I think about it today, all the ministers will discuss how to do it."

The government meeting ended, and on October 2, the cabinet announced the issue of regulation on book publishing.

"The Xuan established a Works Department, which is affiliated with the Ministry of Rites, is in charge of book copyright and content review, and is appointed as the director of the Ministry of Justice, the fourth rank of official.

The Central Works Department is the main focus, with a provincial and prefecture-level writing department, and then a county-level writing department.

All bookstores in the world need to register and obtain qualifications at the Bookstore before they can sell books.

All books must be printed and distributed by the Central Works Department.

Improve relevant works and enter the Ming Dynasty law.

Illegal operation of printing shops and bookstores will be banned. After the establishment of the local works department, all books and related stores will be confiscated if they are illegally operated.

The official book printing company was established, which was affiliated with the Ministry of Works. Qi Fan Jingwen was appointed as the doctor of the book printing company and was a fifth-rank official, managing the printing of books designated by the imperial court.

For example, the educational textbooks "The Analects of Confucius" and "The Law of the Ming Dynasty" are not allowed to print or sell them unless the official printing houses are not allowed. Violators confiscate illegal property and sentence them to prison.

The Press Bureau has a sixth rank in the newspaper office, and manages the publication of newspapers."

A complete set of political orders was issued, and it was only less than a day before the court officials were not fools. The words in the court obviously meant that the emperor did not want them to interfere in this matter.

The cabinet released a message and directly confirmed the matter.

Although it is not easy to achieve this government order with the current Ming Dynasty's control over the local area, at least after legislation, the emperor had a reason to handle related matters.

Moreover, if you can't control it outside, you can definitely do it in the capital.

Not to mention the 60,000 new recruits that the Yongwei Battalion has completed recruitment, even the thousands of Jinyiwei who have been re-selected and trained, nor are they those like those who can resist.

Everyone's eyes were all on the Works and the Bookshop, but they did not notice the establishment of the Communications Office at the bottom.

Zhu Youjian certainly knew that the difficulty of implementing the writing method is that the current state affairs are difficult and it is not a good time to implement it.

So at the beginning, his main purpose was not writing methods, but the communication office.

The name of the chief of the radio station was not announced, and he asked Xiao Sheng for someone.

When Xiao Sheng recruited the first batch of refugees, he selected seventeen of them to become "single brave men".

And the rest are not always eating vain.

In addition to those who are physically good, they are selected to do work such as nursing care, others are also trained together.

They live in a large courtyard, like a family.

Xu Xiuyun, a young mother of one of the seventeen warriors, left with confidence to pursue her ideals because she knew that this yard could take good care of her children.

In fact, this is true. The child is very healthy now. With many people accompanying him, he should at least be much happier than the average farmer's children.

Here, the remaining people except the seventeen warriors did not transform into ideological warriors, but they also mastered certain knowledge in mathematics and other aspects.

Among them are many outstanding people, such as the person Zhu Youjian wanted, a middle-aged man named Zhang Jingwei.

Although this person is already in his prime, he is very talented in mathematics and machinery, and he learns things faster than those young people.

It is one of the few talents Xiao Sheng has in his hands.

However, these talents were used for use. Whether they were Zhu Youjian or Xiao Sheng himself, they were all good for the Ming Dynasty, so naturally they would not argue.

There is another main reason why Zhu Youjian used Zhang Jingwei. This person has a scholarly reputation, and his identity will at least make those literati a little more peaceful.

For them, it is unacceptable that a person who has no fame and fortune enters the court to serve as a sixth-rank official.

As long as they have fame and fortune, they will feel that they are on the same level as themselves and will automatically develop a sense of identity.

In fact, Zhang Jingwei no longer cared about his identity as a scholar, because he had come out of the refugees. After being exposed to new knowledge, he deeply understood the limitations of the scholar-official class.

He only recognized his identity as a student of the new Liuli Pavilion school, although this school was not even officially established.
