Be the Mayor From Today

"Your Excellency Liu Feng, I'm here to study this time." Xilan immediately stood up and said respectfully, "I hope to get your advice."

"Learning?" Liu Feng was stunned, what is this operation?

"Yes, Xiyang City managed by Your Excellency Liu Feng can be called a miracle. In just a few months, Xiyang City has become a prosperous city. These are all things I should learn." Xilan said seriously.

She will definitely continue to be the city lord of Blackwater City in the future. With her immature and female relationship, it will definitely be difficult to manage Blackwater City, which makes her think of coming to Xiyang City to study.

Unexpectedly, when she told her father, she received generous support, and said that she would prepare luggage for her. Why does she feel that her father is a little impatient.

"Learning..." Liu Feng raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect this. This idea is very enlightened in this era, and he actually asked other city lords to learn how to be city lords.

In his layout plan, Blackwater City must be one of the strategic cities, a transit station connecting the Sahara Prairie. Since someone came to study, he is very willing to teach, after all, it can save him a lot of energy.

"Can't you?" Sheeran's smiling face gradually disappeared, and she lowered her head in disappointment. Liu Feng's silence seemed embarrassing to reject her.

"No, if you want to learn, I don't have any opinion." Liu Feng shook his head and smiled lightly, "But some secret things may not be able to teach you."

"Ah?" Sheeran was stunned for a moment, then a happy smile appeared on his face, and he said quickly, "Just ordinary teaching is enough."

"Then, how do you deal with Nicole's internal affairs first?" Liu Feng chuckled lightly.

"Yes." Sheeran shouted respectfully.

"Miss Sheeran, hello, we meet again." Nicole greeted softly.

"Hello, Miss Nicole, I will trouble you in the future." Sheeran said quickly.

"Miss Sheeran, you're too polite." Nicole saw that Sheeran was a little nervous and reassured, "Just pretend this is her home."

"Okay, okay." Sheeran breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she came to an unfamiliar environment, so it's not surprising that she wasn't nervous.

"Gag!"

The study was pushed open, and Mina brought Niu Si and walked in quickly with a wooden box, and placed the wooden box in front of Liu Feng.

"This is?" Liu Feng stared at the slightly panting Cat Erniang, and the panting Niu Si in astonishment. Did the two of them fly back?

"Master, the book is printed." Mina said solemnly. When she sent the letter to the logistics department, she happened to meet Niu Si bringing a box to the castle, so she brought Niu Si directly to the study.

"Oh?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows and quickly opened the wooden box, which contained two thin books.

He reached out and took out the book. He flipped through the next ten pages. He carefully looked at the contents of the pages, which were all commonly used words in this era. The content of this book is basically a literacy enlightenment book, and there are some carved patterns on the side.

"Very good, what's the cost price?" Liu Feng put down the enlightenment book. He was most concerned about the cost. Before that, he hadn't printed a lot of books because the cost was too high.

"Master, the cost is five copper coins a piece." Niu Si said quickly, he was supervising the printing of the book.

"Very good." Liu Feng was very satisfied, the price was very cheap, and then asked, "Have you found the new ink formula?"

"Yes." Niu Si nodded respectfully and lowered his voice, "The people from the Movable Type Printing Research Institute, they soaked a plant in water and found that the water would become much thicker, and then used a certain percentage of ink, and... Make the current ink."

"Will it fade?" Liu Feng sighed in his heart that the plants here are amazing, and they actually have the ability to make water sticky.

"No, it has already been tested." Niu Si affirmed, he now also knows the temperament of the young master, that is, what has been researched, there must be no major shortcomings.

"Very good." Liu Feng nodded in satisfaction, turned his head and instructed An Li, "An Li, immediately choose a store in the commercial street as a public library."

"Library?" En Li was stunned, this word was the first time she was obedient.

"It's a place to put books. Civilians can borrow books from the library with their ID cards, but they need to pay a deposit..." Liu Feng explained the process of the library.

He doesn't sell books as goods for the time being, otherwise those merchants will take them to other cities to sell them and make a lot of money.

Of course, there is no problem selling it to the people of Xiyang City. The library can sell books, but only with an ID card, and one person can only buy one book of the same type.

As for selling books in other places, at least his influence should be able to spread to the entire western land, and he still sells books, and the money must be in his own pocket.

What really makes money is newspapers, and it is also one of the trump cards for controlling rumors. Now that the cost of ink is cheap, printing newspapers should also be on the agenda.

"So it is." En Li suddenly realized that this library is really good.

"I'll leave this matter to you." Liu Feng said gently.

"Okay." Enri said seriously.

Chapter 0494 Xiyang City Newspaper Planning.

With the opening of the library, Liu Feng didn't think that many people would borrow books. He prepared it for those who couldn't read books but wanted to read.

"Master, do you want to give this book a name?" En Li flipped through the book of enlightenment and literacy.

"Let's call it the Hundred-Character Book of Enlightenment." Liu Feng chuckled lightly. This ten-page book has more than one hundred characters, so the name is just right. After all, the module of movable type printing is quite large.

"What about this one?" Enri picked up a second book of the same type.

"Then it's called the second volume of the Hundred-Character Book of Enlightenment." The corner of Liu Feng's mouth rose. He had also read this book. The text in it would be a little more difficult, that is, there were more strokes.

"Eh?" Enri's brown eyes opened slightly, is this okay? He hurriedly said, "Master, is there another volume called three volumes?"

"Yes, books of the same type, just name them like that." Liu Feng nodded.

"Master, is that the only book in the library?" An Li held the 'Hundred Characters Book of Enlightenment'.

"Of course not." Liu Feng rolled his eyes, he was ready.

He opened the drawer and took out a large stack of papers. These were the storybooks he translated from the other side of the earth, as well as some life lessons.

"Take these to the Movable Type Printing Research Institute and let them print all of them." Liu Feng handed a large stack of paper to Hu Erniang.

"Yes." En Li hurriedly took it over. She looked through it and found that the words were very small, twice as small as the printed words.

She estimates that this stack of paper can print more than a dozen books, which is a fatal temptation for people who like books, such as Wei Ya.

Liu Feng doesn't care about the library. The library's money is only a small end, and the newspaper is the issue that attracts his attention. Now the literacy rate in Xiyang City has reached an astonishing 50%, which does not exist in other cities.

Newspapers, who is in charge? Liu Feng mainly thinks about this issue. He must be the main person in charge at the beginning, but he will definitely train people to take over after that.

There is one candidate in his mind, and that is Rabbit Ear Girl, Wei Ya is the best candidate, but unfortunately the other party has been arranged by him in the education system.

"Mina, who else can read in Xiyang City? I want the kind that can read a lot." Liu Feng turned his head and asked.

People who work in the newspaper industry must be literate and can write articles. After all, it is just the beginning, and only one or two people are required to write the manuscript. For other gossip, he will let the Security Department be responsible for providing it.

But it will definitely not work in the future, then the profession of reporter will appear sooner or later, especially after Xiyang City develops and grows, if there is no division of labor between reporters and editors, the person in charge of the newspaper industry must be exhausted.

"This..." Mina frowned and thought, then shook her head and said, "Master, we need to investigate this before we find out."

"Let someone investigate immediately." Liu Feng instructed, the newspaper must be produced. With the newspaper, it can do a lot of things.
