Aren't these people the help behind him?Moreover, after the nine-year compulsory education is popularized, these new-age scholars who will rise in Daqin in the future will be the real pillars that can be relied on.

"Uncle Meng, you are also a scholar. If a work you worked so hard on was stolen shamelessly by others, and then put your name on it, how would you feel?"

"Who dares?"

Meng Yi became annoyed when he heard this. For scholars, it is a lifelong dream to make a good work.

If his work was really plagiarized by someone, Meng Yi probably would have wished he would have raised his knife to kill that person.

"Uncle Meng, since you can't even accept it yourself, why do you think that those poets can accept their works, and I regard them as capital to show off?"

Zhao Che shook his head, ignored Meng Yi, and walked forward on his own.

"But son, you don't use these poems just to show off. Today's scholars are the masters of the world. They can say that black is white, and dead is alive. You will transform Daqin in the future. , there will always be some resistance, right?"

"If you can hold these scholars in your hands, it is equivalent to mastering Daqin's words. No matter what you do in the future, those scholars will try their best to help you persuade Qianshou."

"Since you said that those poets are celebrities who worry about the country and the people, if they know that you use their poems to help Daqin develop better, they will be more happy than themselves?"

……

It has to be said that Meng Yi's method of persuading people is quite powerful. If it were someone else, they might agree to Meng Yi's words, whether it was public or private.

But Zhao Che doesn't like this, so what if he doesn't have those poems by his side?Will his plan to transform Daqin stop?

"Uncle Meng, you reminded me that, as the saying goes, chivalry uses martial arts to break the law, and Confucianism uses literature to disrupt the law. It is true that the public opinion of the Great Qin Dynasty cannot be controlled by those scholars, otherwise they will easily incite the common people to cause trouble for us."

"My lord, what do you mean by this? Do you want to silence those scholars? But it's not so easy, even His Majesty can't do it..."

"Who said I want to gag their mouths? What I want to do is to let the leaders of the world hear Daqin's voice and hear our true and original words, not the words that have been changed and spread by those scholars."

"My lord, this matter is not so easy to do. The news of Daqin is lagging behind. In addition, in the process of news spreading, there will always be situations where the words do not convey the meaning. Often, the orders issued by His Majesty reach the ears of the heads of Guizhou. , has completely changed its meaning, and..."

Meng Yi sighed and continued.

"My lord, you know that there are 36 counties in the world, and there are tens of thousands of heads of state. If we really want to convey the news in its original form, how many people will we need?"

"Who said that it has to be spread through people? And you said it yourself, through word of mouth from person to person, it is easy to have words that do not convey the meaning. In this case, why don't we use other things to replace it?" ?”

"what?"

"newspaper!"

"Newspaper? What is this?"

"It is a kind of public opinion dissemination, similar to bulletin board articles, but this newspaper is directly conveyed to the head of Guizhou, and one copy is issued every day. It can not only be used to spread the Great Qin government orders, but also record the Great Qin Dynasty on it. Daily news, so that the leaders of Guizhou can more intuitively understand what changes are happening in Daqin every day."

After all, Meng Yi can be regarded as a figure who is worshiped by the government, besides, he is a literati himself.

Listening to Zhao Che's narration, Meng Yi quickly understood how powerful this newspaper really was, and the ones who were most impacted were probably those scholars who thought they had mastered the words of the leader of Guizhou.

"Young Master, may I ask if this newspaper, in addition to recording the news about my Daqin, can also record what the leaders of Guizhou want to convey?"

"Huh? Uncle Meng thought of the role of newspapers?"

Of course, it is impossible for newspapers to only record Daqin official statements and news. More importantly, newspapers serve as a channel for cultural dissemination.

The heads of Guizhou are also part of Daqin, so what they want to convey in the newspaper is naturally okay.

"If this is the case, then the newspaper may be wildly promoted by the leaders of the world once it is launched."

Meng Yi was shocked.

It was never expected that the most powerful pen of the world's scholars was so easily defeated by Zhao Che with a small newspaper.

The pens of scholars can spread only their own thoughts and the thoughts they want to spread.

In fact, in this process, both Daqin and Qianshou are in a passive process.

What they can say can only be what the scholars want to say, and what they can hear can only be what the scholars want them to hear.

But if there are newspapers, what Daqin wants to say in the future can be directly spread to Qianshou's ears through newspapers.

Even if the heads of Guizhou have something to say, they can spread their words through newspapers.

Of course, newspapers are in the hands of Daqin officials, so they naturally have the power to review and control public opinion.

But this move undoubtedly completely knocked the scholars down from the altar. What they say in the future will definitely not be as effective as the actual news spread in the newspapers.

"My lord is a good plan. This newspaper must be published, so that our Daqin will not be choked by those scholars in the future."

Meng Yi sighed, he asked Zhao Che to name those poems in order to subdue those scholars. Now those scholars have lost their use value to them, so naturally there is no need to force Zhao Che to do what he doesn't want to do. thing.

"After I go back, I can tell my father about this matter, and then send someone to send a message back to Xianyang, just to see if Brother Fusu can complete this matter well."

"Here!"

Meng Yi fully agreed, and soon the two returned to the palace.

Afterwards, Meng Yi took the initiative to bring up the matter of the newspaper with Ying Zheng, especially emphasizing the effect of the newspaper on the dissemination of public opinion in Daqin in the future.

"Okay, Che'er, just make out the details of the newspaper. I'll send someone back to Xianyang right away. It's best to see the newspaper published before we leave Nanjun."

Ying Zheng laughed heartily.

The ghost knows how it feels for him, as an emperor, to be pinched by those scholars and literati all the time.

Now that he finally had the opportunity to clean up these scholars, how could Ying Zheng disagree?
So, under Ying Zheng's urging, Zhao Che quickly wrote down the details of making the newspaper, and even brought along the formula for making newspaper and kraft paper.
