Almighty System Great Master Qin

Chapter 33
Xiao Hong came to the newspaper office and said: "Just follow this template and publish it. By the way, add the movable type printing and paper explanations, and put it at the end of the last page of the newspaper. White paper will be sold outside after seven days"

Xiao Hong handed the newspaper to Chen Ping, and said: "This time, we will print [-] copies first, and each newspaper will cost two cents."

"Here"

Chen Ping took the template newspaper to communicate with the typesetting room to retype the newspaper.

After finishing all this, Xiao Hong went to the newly established papermaking workshop. There are five papermaking workshops in total. Each papermaking workshop has a supervisor, and the whole papermaking workshop has a supervisor.The people here are all Xiao Hong's servants, and they all signed contracts of sale with Xiao Hong.

Because Xiao Hong wanted to establish the Daqin Mining Group, Qin Shihuang left Xiao Hong with [-] forbidden troops at his disposal.

Therefore, [-] forbidden troops were stationed outside the paper mill, [-] forbidden troops were stationed outside the newspaper office, and the remaining [-] forbidden troops were all used as the guards of the Daqin Mining Group.

Now the headquarters of Daqin Mining Group has been selected, but according to the drawings designed by Xiao Hong, the headquarters of Daqin Mining Group is very huge.

Therefore, Jiang Xiu sent a large number of craftsmen to work overtime on the construction, and Xiao Hong spent [-] yuan on just one headquarters.

The next day, a large number of teenagers wearing clothes with the Daqin Newspaper printed on them appeared in Xianyang City. Each of these teenagers held a newspaper and scattered around Xianyang.

They are all orphans that Xiao Hong found in Xianyang City. Xiao Hong hired them to work for Daqin Newspaper, with a monthly salary of [-] yuan, and they were in charge of food and housing. The job of these young people was also very simple, that is, selling newspapers.

"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, Daqin Metropolis Daily, two cents a newspaper."

"Young man, what is your newspaper?" A literati stopped a young man and asked.

"This is a newly invented newspaper by the Marquis of Nanyang. It contains articles written by hundreds of disciples, the latest policies of the imperial court and the progress of some major events."

"Oh, with a certain copy." The scholar took out two pennies and bought a newspaper.

"Well, I didn't expect the articles written by the disciples of the Yin Yang family to be so good." The literati couldn't help admiring after watching.

"Brother Zheng, what are you looking at?" Seeing this, another scholar came up.

"newspaper"

"Newspaper?" This literati came to Xianyang, so naturally he didn't know what a newspaper was.

However, many people knew that the Marquis of Nanyang recruited Xianyang literati from all over the world for the newspaper office.

They heard that the newspaper was invented by Nanyang Hou, and they couldn't wait to buy a copy to read.

"The argument of this Confucian policy theory is very novel."

"Someone thinks that the policy theory written by the disciple of the political strategist is better"

In the teahouses in Xianyang City, there were voices discussing newspaper articles everywhere, and there were not a few people who fought violently because of disagreements.

"Look, Lord Hou actually recruits articles from everyone, and once the article is selected, he will reward fifty dollars."

"Really, let's not talk about it, I'm going to write an article, I want everyone to see that my miscellaneous family is no worse than the Confucian Yin-Yang family."

Seeing this, many disciples of hundreds of schools went home and thought hard behind closed doors, not only for the fifty money, but also for the rectification of the name of their school.

"Master Hou, you can see that many disciples from hundreds of schools who have nothing to do on weekdays are busy in order to get their articles published in the newspaper."

Wang Chen took his guards and accompanied Xiao Hong to go out to check the sales of the newspaper.

Xiao Hong nodded, but the first edition of Daqin Metropolis Daily has only affected a hundred disciples, and for ordinary people, buying a newspaper for two cents is too extravagant.

Moreover, ordinary people really don't understand the above articles written by the hundred disciples, and even if someone reads them to them, they won't be able to understand the meaning.

However, there is no way around this. In just one day, the reporters could not collect any useful information. The people's livelihood section of the next issue of the newspaper will be useful, because Xiao Hong intends to publish some advanced planting techniques in the 21st century in the newspaper.

Now the Daqin Metropolis Daily publishes an issue every week, and these hundreds of disciples have enough time to write and contribute articles.

"Let's go." Xiao Hong probably took a stroll. With the enthusiasm of the literati now, it is not a problem for the hundred thousand copies of the newspaper to be sold out.

"This damn day is too hot." Xiao Hong just went out for a casual walk, and broke out in a sweat.

Under the service of Chuncao and others, Xiao Hong took a bath, but still felt unbearably hot.

"It would be great if there was ice cream," Xiao Hong muttered. He had already asked people to put all the brewed wine into wine jars and seal them in the cellar.

"Ice cream, by the way, I can make ice." Making ice with saltpeter is basic knowledge.

"Wang Chen, go to the warehouse and get all the saltpeter"

"Here"

During the Warring States period, saltpeter was already used, but it was only used in medicine, and Xiao Hong's Houfu also kept saltpeter all year round for emergencies.

"Master Hou, I have brought all the saltpeter."

"Go get a bucket of water, and bring me a basin"

Xiao Hong put some saltpeter in the bucket, filled the basin with water, and put it in the bucket. In the astonished eyes of everyone, the water froze at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Xianshu!" Wang Chen looked at the bucket of ice and said tremblingly.

And Hu Hai, who had been reading in the room, heard that Xiao Hong used immortal techniques to make ice, and ran over in a hurry, just in time to see the process of the water freezing.

"Teacher!" Hu Hai said excitedly as he watched a basin of water quickly turn into ice.

"Don't make a fuss, it's not magic, it's science"

"Science?" Hu Hai scratched his head in doubt.

"Forget it, I can't explain it clearly for a while, go get some bowls, and bring some sugar"

The Qin Dynasty already had sugar, which was processed into sugar from sugarcane juice, but the yield was very low, so sugar was a luxury in this period, and only people with high status could enjoy it.

"Hou Ye"

Xiao Hong put the prepared ice in a bowl, sprinkled a layer of sugar on it, and said: "It's such a hot day, everyone should try it."

Xiao Hong took a bowl and ate it, but only Hu Hai dared to eat it, and the others did not dare to move.

Xiao Hong looked at the stiff crowd, and said: "This Marquis doesn't have so many rules here, there are so many here, you all have a try, it's a hot day"

Hearing what Xiao Hong said, Wang Chen and the others dared to each take a bowl of small bites and start eating.

"It's delicious." Chun Cao and the others showed happy smiles, and even Hu Hai ate very sweetly.

But Xiao Hong thinks it is average, the sugar in this period is still coarse sugar, in fact, the sweetness is very low, for Xiao Hong who is used to eating white sugar from later generations, he thinks it is not sweet at all.

"Buzz"

A few bees flew into the house.

"Bee! Yes, I can collect honey." Xiao Hong ran to the yard after eating the ice cubes in two bites.

And Wang Chen and the others didn't care about eating any more, and immediately followed Xiao Hong to the backyard.

Xiao Hong didn't care about them either, because he suddenly thought that if he could communicate with Xiaobai, it shouldn't be difficult to communicate with the bees, and the bees would be easier to control.

"Why didn't I think of this before?" Xiao Hong looked at Xiao Bai who was hiding in the house and muttered.

Xiao Hong stood in the middle of the courtyard, closed his eyes, and released his mental power to perceive his surroundings.

"Found it" Soon Xiao Hong found a bee collecting honey.

Xiao Hong wrapped the bee with mental power, trying to communicate with it.

However, the mental power of the bee is too weak, and it took Xiao Hong a lot of effort to perceive the mental power of the bee and establish a connection with it.

"It's done" Xiao Hong ordered the little bee to take him to find the hive. Xiao Hong planned to raise some bees by himself, so that he could have endless honey.
