Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 343 For My Use

"Hahaha..." Ying Zheng laughed, and came to the Prince's Mansion with a letter of acknowledgment jointly written by the aristocratic family. As soon as he entered the door, he laughed and shouted at Zhao Yi: "Prince, come and see, those aristocratic families are finally here! I've confessed in front of you!"

Zhao Yi was forced by Ying Zheng to read the "letter of surrender" sent by the family. He couldn't help but roll his eyes. Looking at Ying Zheng chattering in front of him, he suddenly cursed in his heart.

[Can the old man look like an emperor, calm down, calm down, do you understand?Don't always look like a country bumpkin, no wonder the aristocratic family always looks down on you, with your virtue, don't even try to be looked down upon in this life! 】

[However, the aristocratic family gave up so quickly, which is a bit beyond my expectation. I thought they could last for at least one period! 】

[I have to say that the country’s weapon is still powerful. This is also thanks to Dongfang Bubai. He has done a really good job of keeping secrets. After so long, the family has not stolen any secrets. Otherwise, today would be a different story. 】

[However, there is no need to ban the newspaper "Central Plains News", it can be kept and used for me...]

It was like Ying Zheng was presenting a treasure, and he was twitching in front of Zhao Yi. After hearing Zhao Yi's heartfelt words, his expression changed suddenly, especially when he heard at the end, Zhao Yi said that "Central Plains News" could be used by me. All stand up.

[The "Central Plains News" is directly state-owned and sponsored by the imperial court. In this way, there are two newspapers, "Daqin Weekly" and "Central Plains News", to fully control the hearts of the people, wouldn't it be better! 】

Hearing what Zhao Yi said, Ying Zheng finally came to his senses and couldn't help but nodded inwardly. Why didn't he think of it!
Just as Zhao Yi thought, the "Central Plains News" produced by several big aristocratic families already has a certain mass base among the people, and it has a lot of influence.

If it weren't for the fact that the Papermaking Office and the Printing Office were under the control of the imperial court itself, "Zhongyuan News" would probably still be at odds with "Da Qin Weekly" at this time!
From this, it can be seen from the other side that "Central Plains News" does have merits. If it is used by the imperial court to transform the content of speeches in it, and it is perfectly matched with "Daqin Weekly", it will definitely be able to achieve one plus one equals infinity Effect!
Of course, the most important thing is that the aristocratic family's own things were used to make wedding clothes for the court. I think when the aristocratic family knows about it, their faces will definitely become very good-looking!
The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that something was going on. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly smelled a strange aroma and heard a strange roar coming from the backyard of the Prince's Mansion.

"Prince, what are you doing in your backyard? Why does it smell so good? What is it?" Ying Zheng asked casually, and Zhao Yi was stunned for a moment, his eyes a little panicked.

[Damn it, I forgot to inform the people behind me, what the hell let the old man find out that I was extracting oil! 】

[But this is also my fault. I haven’t eaten pure soybean oil for a long time. It’s so easy to grow soybeans. How can I not squeeze out some oil to satisfy my cravings! 】

[It’s all caused by the oil and water in Da Qin now. It’s all animal fat that we eat. It’s so greasy that labor and management don’t want it. 】

[The system is also strange, why don’t you give me some rapeseed, sesame seeds, etc., so that I can eat more deliciously! 】

Zhao Yi's mental activities all fell into Ying Zheng's mind, which shocked His Majesty the Great Qin Emperor again in an instant.

He was just curious about what Zhao Yi was doing in the backyard. It turned out that he was refining oil. The prince actually mastered a new oil refining technique and could squeeze oil out of beans.

And according to the prince, as long as he has the right crops, he can squeeze out different types of oil and water.

This is really another big new discovery for Yingzheng, because people in this era really only eat animal oil, ordinary people can't afford oil at all, and people who can't eat oil and water have poor physical fitness. Where will it go.

Therefore, Yingzheng couldn't imagine that if the prince made a new breakthrough in oil refining, so that the people could eat oil and water, how helpful it would be to the rule of Great Qin!

"Uh, father, it's a servant grinding the beans, it's no big deal." Zhao Yi smiled dryly, trying to fool him.

[Ma Dan, I hope I can fool him. If the old guy knows that I know how to refine oil, he won’t be able to rob me! 】

[When the time comes to make such money, let him master it. Didn't I lose a deal that can make a lot of money...]

Ying Zheng couldn't help shaking his head when he heard Zhao Yi's complaints in his heart.

He knew that his son had a peeing habit, and he said he wanted to use it to make money, but in fact, he had rules and regulations for making money. He was not like those unscrupulous profiteers who drove up prices, or else just like his previous inventions, he was afraid that He has become a nouveau riche long ago!
Although he was very curious, Ying Zheng decided to settle the matter of "Central Plains News" quickly.

Returning to the palace, Ying Zheng immediately summoned Li Si, Feng Quji and others in the imperial study.

"Prime Minister on the left, Prime Minister on the right, since the family has decided to ban "Central Plains News", I intend to take it over for official management, and I will leave this matter to you with full authority!"

"Ah?" Li Si was stunned when he heard the words, "Your Majesty, we spent so much effort to get the aristocratic family to ban "Central Plains News", why..."

Ying Zheng waved his hand to interrupt Li Si, "Instead of banning this newspaper, it is better to keep it for your own use and let it play the same role as "Daqin Weekly."

"Since "Central Plains News" already has influence among the people, let's make good use of it to promote the thoughts of the imperial court and let the people completely submit to the leadership of the imperial court!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's explanation, Li Si and Feng Quji instantly understood and were amazed.

"Your Majesty's strategy is very good. It is true. In this way, the combination of the two newspapers and periodicals can produce better results!"

"Hahaha, I just don't know how the patriarchs of the aristocratic families would feel if they knew that the newspapers they ran were used by His Majesty!"

Ying Zheng also laughed, then his smile faded, and he made a decision directly, "In this case, the two prime ministers will arrange this matter, and let the Imperial College arrange a doctor to be responsible for this matter."

"I obey the order!" Feng Quji and Li Si suddenly agreed, and then hurried to deal with the matter.

A few days later, at Li's house in Taiyuan, Li Chengxiang had a solemn expression, holding a newspaper, trotted all the way to his father's room from outside, and said to Li Qiao solemnly: "Father, look at this!"

Li Qiao frowned slightly and looked strange when he saw the newspaper on his face, "Isn't this "Central Plains News"? Why did you show it to your father again? My father has read it countless times. Take it away and take it away." , I get angry when I see it!”

"Father, please look carefully, this is not the first issue of "Central Plains News"..."
