Chapter 14: Student Discussion on the Publishing of Four New Newspapers

Zhu Xian put his pocket watch back in his pocket and walked slowly to the podium while holding on to time.

He held up the official newspaper and said: "Recently, the Dali navy has successfully discovered the location of Yingzhou Island and is clearing the sea route. It is expected that silver mines will be mined from Yingzhou Island starting next year. When the news came out, Dali was shocked. Many people wrote to the imperial court, asking for a sea ban. Emperor Li did not reply yet, only saying that we would discuss it later."

"The follow-up of this matter is still unknown. But I think about it, [-]% to [-]% of the topics for this year's examination will fall here. You can speak freely and express your opinions on the pros and cons of opening the sea ban."

After speaking, Zhu Xian sat down on the podium seat and allowed the students to discuss as much as they wanted.

Some people say that the sea is rich in products. If the maritime ban is lifted and private ships are allowed to go to sea, it will greatly enrich the current commodity market in Dali. If islands rich in mineral resources like Yingzhou Island can also be discovered, it can effectively strengthen our country. North Korea's national power.

Some people say that the sea is dangerous and the naval exploration may not be successful. Private ships going to the sea and going to the ocean are no better than hay lighting a lamp, which is [-] out of [-] possible.

In short, this is equivalent to guessing the questions before the exam. Whether you can guess correctly depends on the eyesight of the lecturers in each county school.

Nan Yi thought secretly.

However, his thoughts were not on the maritime ban for a while, but on urbanization.

Compared with the ancient times of Blue Star, the urbanization process of the Dali Dynasty was relatively high, and the population was mostly concentrated in various counties rather than rural mountain villages.

According to the original Nan Yi's understanding, he felt that there were many ferocious beasts in the mountains and wilderness, so families who could afford it would like to live in groups in the county town; no matter how unfavorable, they would gather near the county town and form villages.

The same goes for sea bans. People are prohibited from going too deep into the sea because the ferocious beasts in the sea are difficult to deal with.

However, Nan Yi now feels that although there are ferocious beasts, it is not the ferocious beasts that are really difficult for mortals to deal with.

…………

Sprinting to review before an exam may seem boring, but it goes by very quickly.

Nan Yi buried his head in books and hardly left the gate of Nanshan Academy except for eating every day.

Before I knew it, half a month had passed and it was December 21st.

On this day, there are still four days before this year’s exam.

But this day was the day when the first issue of "Ming Pao" was released and "The Legend of Two Dragons in Dali" was officially published.

Nan Yi concentrated on reviewing the scriptures and did not pay attention to the latest news.And Xie Beihe knew that Nan Yi was about to take the exam, so he deliberately didn't bother to inform him.

However, some students in the unbearable dormitory live in their own houses and will still receive some external news to some extent.

Nan Yi returned to his seat to read a book after breakfast this morning.

It was not yet the start of class, and the lecturer Zhu Xian had not yet arrived, so some students who came early were chatting in twos and threes.

During the chat, someone said, "By the way, I should go to Beiheju at noon to see what the new newspaper is like. How dare you boast so brazenly about Haikou?"

"Have you also heard about his new newspaper? My father also received an invitation to attend the opening ceremony."

"My eldest brother received the invitation to my house. When someone came to deliver the invitation, he said with certainty that the content of the new newspaper would be eye-opening. I don't know if he was making a fool of himself."

"What do you think this Beihe layman thinks? How dare he open a new newspaper in the county? It would be easy to say if it were a county, but how can there be enough content for him to publish a newspaper in the county?"

"What do you think? Heh, in my opinion, he just pretends to make shocking remarks to arouse our curiosity, so that we can be tempted to buy the newspaper. And it is eye-opening? I am not deliberately belittling, but even if the content of his first few issues is carefully Prepare, but as time goes by, it will be difficult to maintain the follow-up.”

Several people chatted, some were curious and some were disdainful.Nan Yi only listened quietly, without saying a word or explaining.

These students were distracted by other things and were interested in talking about the latest hot news in Nanshan County. Either because they were still young and had just entered the dormitory, they could still study for two more years; .

As long as the lecturer Zhu Xian hasn't come yet, he seems a little careless and not attentive enough.

Under such circumstances, it was not convenient for Nan Yi to get involved and say: I know that the new newspaper you are chatting about is the novel I wrote recently.

He suspected that if he really said that, he was just trying to incite hatred among his classmates.

Let's continue reading alone.

Nan Yi kept a low profile and continued to remain silent.

But unexpectedly, classmate Zhou Qing suddenly ran in from outside the hospital and said with a wry smile: "Everyone, let me tell you something, Master Zhu just went to Beiheju to buy a new newspaper. He was fascinated by the content of the new newspaper and has no intention of teaching for the time being. Let me come and tell you. Let me tell you: read a book by yourself this morning and do it cheaply."

what?
The students looked at each other in dismay.

Just now I was discussing whether to buy Beiheju's new newspaper at noon, but unexpectedly, the lecturer had already fallen into trouble.

Someone didn't want to be gullible and asked: "Brother Zhou, are you just trying to entertain us? Master Zhu, is he really fascinated by a new newspaper?"

Zhou Qing, who came to deliver the message, said displeasedly: "How dare I make up such a thing at will?"

"Brother Zhou, calm down. It's not that I don't believe you. It's just that when I first heard this, it was a bit unbelievable." Someone immediately answered and asked, "By the way, what is the content in the new newspaper that can make Master Zhu Not interested in teaching? Brother Zhou, you came from Beiheju, have you seen it?"

Zhou Qing said depressedly: "I've never seen it before. Today's first issue of the new newspaper has a special price, and there are many people who want to buy it. After I went there, I could only queue up, and when I was about to be queued up, I didn't expect Master Zhu to come too. . Most of the people in the queue were Zhu Shi Taoli, so they all gave up their seats. Master Zhu came from behind and went straight into the store to buy a new newspaper."

"Originally, this was nothing, and it didn't affect my queue. Unexpectedly, after Master Zhu read the content of the new newspaper, he was so shocked that he couldn't even move his feet. Before he could read the newspaper, he didn't forget to lift me out of the queue. Come out and let me rush to the school building to inform everyone that this morning's class will be changed to self-reading."

Zhou Qing looked helpless.He was already at the front of a long queue and was about to buy a new newspaper.But it was precisely because he was in front of the queue that the lecturer Zhu Xian saw him and ordered him to run errands.

After listening to what Zhou Qing said, all the students felt that they had not expected it.

Zhu Xian likes to read newspapers.But newspapers only have so much content that can only be read in a few or two times. How can they still captivate people's minds and require repeated consideration?
"I did hear that Beihe layman is quite confident in Xinbao, and his bold words will open people's eyes. But such exaggeration is a bit too eye-opening..."

Everyone, who fell into a moment of silence due to great surprise, suddenly started discussing again.

"I still don't believe that the content in the new newspaper is so charming, unless you let me see it."

"Since Master Zhu said he would do things cheaply this morning, why don't we go buy a new newspaper first?"

Many students have been piqued by the news and are ready to take action after hearing the news.

"But the annual exam is coming soon..."

Someone hesitated.

All he got was a chuckle.

"If you miss half a day of review, it won't affect anything. Besides, can you still compete with Nan Yi for first place?"
