I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

No fellow traveler here would jump out and say that this is a shameful plagiarism. Others would only think that His Royal Highness King Qin has great talent and is a true literati.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo, relying on his status as King of Qin, might not be able to suppress these great Confucians with lofty aspirations and real abilities. Most of these people are truly learned people, and they are all those who can truly leave a long-lasting reputation in the literary world. , a top academic leader who allows future generations to study and explore.

Moreover, these people not only have their own unique insights in academics, but also can be called masters in dealing with people in the world. The most famous of them is Yan Shigu. It is worthy of the title of great Confucianism.

His grandfather is Yan Zhitui, who is a well-known Confucianist, and because of his family education and interests, he is particularly proficient in interpreting uncommon words. Any word that is not very sure is in front of him. Can tell you the ins and outs and precise interpretation.

It is precisely because of this that Yan Shigu was the first great Confucianist Li Chengqian and Li Tai visited at the time.

As the current secretary and young supervisor, his own job is to proofread ancient books. He is naturally happy to receive such a job now, not to mention that it was initiated by His Royal Highness King Qin, and the prince will review and coordinate with the prince. For him, this kind of thing is simply It couldn't be more suitable.

Therefore, Yan Shigu became the first candidate to join.

Among the Confucians who joined later, the most famous one is probably Xiao Yu. He is not only knowledgeable, but in fact he is the son of Emperor Liang Ming of the Southern Dynasty and the brother-in-law of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty. His sister is the famous Empress Xiao, who is also under Li Shimin Ranked ninth among the 24 heroes of Lingyan Pavilion!

It's just that this boss looked down on people from other classes, which made it difficult to get along in Li Shimin's team.Otherwise, he is definitely a top boss.

Now Xiao Yu is also getting older, and he has seen a lot of things. He is not so keen on official affairs, but is particularly interested in Li Chengqian's editorial work.

And after one big boss after another joined, Li Chengqian had to come to Zhang Nuo for help. These big bosses were open and frank even in the face of his father, and even many of them, Li Shimin, were able to become disciples. If you treat him with courtesy, let alone Li Chengqian.

Therefore, it is imperative for Zhang Nuo to set the tone and support the scene this time.Of course, Zhang Nuo himself had another idea, which was to set a timetable for them.

Zhang Nuo recognized the academic quality of this group of people very much, and could even be said to be more reliable than himself.

However, this gang generally has a shortcoming, that is, they chew on words and care about every detail, especially on this kind of academic issue. Once they choke on the interpretation of a certain word, it will definitely not stop in a short while. This group will definitely start the debate with quotations.

This kind of attitude is of course good, but if you keep doing it like this, you're still playing a fart. When will you see the whole book come out?

It is impossible for Zhang Nuo to wait for several years because of this matter.Therefore, he would rather pull more people than shorten the time. In his plan, he can only give one year for this matter.

That's right, in just one year, I must finish this reference book that Li Shimin took a fancy to and snatched the naming rights so shamelessly that it must be called "Zhenguan Dictionary".

The role of this book is not only to spread knowledge, but also to become a necessary auxiliary tool for all readers, and also to make a final conclusion on all the words from ancient times to the present.

In fact, there are already signs of this in today's academic circles, that is, various academic theories are spraying each other, and various debates also occur from time to time. Many people have even applied to run a newspaper. If the application is approved, then besides promoting their own academic theories, the most important purpose of their newspapers is to spray people.

Zhang Nuo thought that the entire academic world of the Tang Dynasty would be in such a mess.Therefore, he has no way to intervene and does not want to intervene in those trivial or academic disputes that contain the core of thought.

However, Zhang Nuo would like to put a full stop on the matter of words, pronunciation, and interpretation, because this has a great impact, not only on the current readers, but also on thousands of people who are reading and learning. Children, I can't stand today's teacher's version of tomorrow's teacher's version of chaos teaching.

Zhang Nuo intends to use his own reputation, together with Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and a large group of top Confucianists, to draw a conclusion on all the existing words and get to the bottom of it, at least in this respect, completely cut off the so-called controversy.

As for the fact that there will still be people who will gossip after the publication in the future, then it is none of Zhang Nuo's business. Whoever likes to talk can say it, and whoever cares about him?

Chapter 930 Zhang Nuo's Confidence

Zhang Nuo's meeting with the big scholars went very smoothly. Maybe these big guys have their own faults, but no one is perfect, and Zhang Nuo doesn't believe those who are perfect.

In Zhang Nuo's view, those who are more perfect in front of you are either over-disguised or have ulterior motives. On the contrary, these people with various minor problems look more real.

Everyone was opposed to Zhang Nuo's time limit at the beginning. In the eyes of these academic leaders, one year is too eager for quick success, and the things they produce must not be rigorous. Wouldn't it ruin their reputation by then?

But Zhang Nuo convinced them with just one reason. Everyone is getting old. If it takes several years or even ten years, are you sure you can really survive until this book is published in the future?

When everyone heard it, they immediately felt, um, it smells so good!

Of course, Zhang Nuo didn't blindly oppress others, but offered his own methods and support.

The first is the expansion of manpower. There is no need for these bigwigs to do many basic tasks in person. It is simply a waste of energy to beat mosquitoes with cannons.

So, each boss has ten quotas, don’t you have many disciples and grandchildren, don’t they want to be famous, that’s just right, as long as there are such people, then you can just recruit them, and they will be assigned to your subordinates, and you will be able to do so in the future. Follow the wave of fame.

Everyone happily agreed to this point, and they all know that what they are doing is a good thing, so if they can support their disciples and grandchildren in an open and honest manner, if they didn't take the initiative to bring it up, then everyone has nothing to object to.

Of course, Zhang Nuo didn't just expand his manpower, he turned his head and came up with a rough work framework, and threw it directly to Li Chengqian and Li Tai, especially Li Tai. stuff, then the editorial group can also be disbanded.

Now that everyone has time, Zhang Nuo hastened to clarify his arrangements. After all, he has already let go of this matter, and he came here just to help out. Let's do it all.

What the hell, if he does all the work, and the reputation of these two boys ends up being borne, then in the end, he won't be that stupid boy who only works and doesn't get paid.

Not to mention that for a salty fish like him, he doesn't even want to do his own work, so it's useless to talk about other people's work.

Zhang Nuo's arrangement is actually not complicated. The main thing is to change the previous mode of gathering and discussing together into an assembly line mode.

The first process is to list the words into a directory according to their pronunciation, and take all the words into account as quickly as possible.

And after that, it's time to divide the task goals, and each great Confucian will bring his disciples and grandchildren to share a part according to the amount of labor.

At the same time, Zhang Nuo also made it clear that the correct process should be that disciples and grandchildren first mark the definition and source of a certain word based on their own knowledge, and then put it aside, and then every day after Daru goes to work, he is responsible Review and revise these manuscripts produced by his disciples and grandchildren.

In this way, the most basic and low-tech work will not continue to take up the time of the Great Confucianists, but if the Great Confucians personally check it out, they should still check it out for their own disciples and grandchildren.

After all, everyone brought their own disciples and grandchildren, and then something went wrong, not only the faces of those children were dull, but the faces of those who were in charge of promotion and review would be able to look good?

But this thing is a blatant conspiracy. After all, if you want to support your own children, that's no problem, you have to be responsible to your children.

At the same time, this matter is originally your responsibility. You are here to compile books, not to provide for the elderly. Is it really the same as before?

Zhang Nuo also clearly divided the time nodes at the end. Everyone's progress will be reviewed at each stage. The first time there is a progress lag warning, and the second time there is a problem, they will be sent away directly.

After all, this matter really cannot afford to delay, students, teachers, literati, scholars... There are so many people waiting for this dictionary to save their lives, it really makes people wait there stupidly.

Zhang Nuo's words were very strong, and it could even be said to be unreasonable, but everyone still liked it.Of course, this also has something to do with Zhang Nuo's identity.

After all, Zhang Nuo can be regarded as rare in the world in terms of title, power, wealth, and literary status, not to mention that he still has a reason for this matter. Everyone can't say that I actually want to be lazy.

Therefore, what was originally a troublesome matter that would probably kill Li Chengqian and his brothers was solved by Zhang Nuo in this way.

Brothers Li Chengqian and Li Tai looked at Zhang Nuo as if they were looking at a god. Oh my god, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is a little too aggressive. They are really tough and direct. The key is that everyone really goes along with it. He came with his intention.

Maybe some of them didn't understand something, but they figured out one thing, that is, their work will be easier to do afterwards.

Because Zhang Nuo had already settled down the rules of the matter, and everyone agreed to it, and then naturally followed the rules.

If someone jumped out again, it wouldn't be Li Tai and Li Chengqian who hit the face of the two juniors. It would be a complete face-off with Zhang Nuo, His Highness King Qin.

As for offending Zhang Nuo, it’s okay if he doesn’t miss you, but if he really wants to, then be careful, and definitely arrange you clearly, and it’s not only you, but also your family and even your family. The kind that your ancestors arranged for you clearly.

No way, Zhang Nuo has the power, money and the right to speak. He is still a shareholder of the newspaper and has a direct veto right over the content of the newspaper.

If he wanted to blackmail a person or a family, he would really be able to form a wave of public opinion, thus blackening people from their ancestors.

Zhang Nuo has never done this kind of trick, but Li Shimin and Wei Zheng have done it, or Wei Zheng has done it several times under Li Shimin's behest.

But the results of those few times alone have made everyone in the literary and academic circles feel cold. The kind of thing that abruptly changes public opinion and guides everyone's emotions to reverse a person's reputation, for them For those who value Qingming, it is a catastrophe.

The most terrible thing is that at present, no one is qualified or has the channel to fight against Datang Daily!

Therefore, this is everyone's fear and Zhang Nuo's confidence!

Chapter 931 The Business Opportunity Discovered by Old Zheng

Just when Zhang Nuo was unwilling to help the two young boys of Li Shimin's family to do white jobs, a party with a completely different atmosphere from the past was taking place in the Lantian clubhouse that Zhang Nuo hadn't "favored" for a long time. It was held in a large room.

In the past few months, it can be said that the reputation of the Lantian Clubhouse has grown day by day. Not to mention anything else, but the birth of a bicycle factory from the Lantian Clubhouse has already made countless people regret it.

Zhang Nuo had actually made it very clear back then, but some of them were not qualified to go in, and some of them really refused.

If you say that you are a member of it, it's actually okay, even if you don't have a chance or catch up this time, then maybe you can get together next time.

I have to say that the Blue Sky Club has only been open for a few months, but it has already formed its own unspoken rules.

It is the kind of rules that seem to be raised by no one, but have been tacitly observed by everyone in a certain circle or among some people, but they do not fall on paper or verbal rules.

For example, when talking about cooperation in the clubhouse, everyone only talks about business cooperation, and absolutely no one will talk about official matters here.

It doesn't matter if it's small talk, but if you want to help each other in the officialdom, don't talk about it here, because it will make the other party feel that you are an ignorant fool, and it is weird to cooperate with you.

Secondly, the Lantian Clubhouse actually said from the very beginning that the cooperation between everyone is based on the principle of voluntariness, and the Lantian Clubhouse only provides a venue for everyone to communicate.

However, no matter who it is, even if it is a cooperation that the two families have been discussing a few years ago, if it is now negotiated in the Lantian Club, they will bring Old Zheng over to be a witness.

It seems that without Lao Zheng in this cooperation, it would not be a serious witness.

In fact, these so-called unspoken rules, to put it bluntly, are all for Zhang Nuo's face. At the same time, I thank Zhang Nuo for providing such an excellent communication venue for everyone. As long as everyone is here, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. The money is all about money It's business.

But in the past few months, a lot of business has been negotiated, but in fact they are all cooperations that are not on the table. Basically, they are cooperating with their own small circle. It seems that the Lantian Club is just asking these people to drink tea, chat and eat in another place. It seems that there seems to be a happy chat between members and members here.

But if you observe carefully, you will find that the diaphragm has always been there, and everyone is still communicating instinctively according to the original habit. Just chatting with you politely does not mean that you like you, and it does not mean that you want to Cooperating with you is just to give Prince Qin face, not to make the scene ugly.

And those who can enter this place are not human beings. Basically, after chatting with each other once or twice, they will know what the other party means, so everyone can keep this scene.

But Lao Zheng saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. As the steward of the Blue Sky Club, he can only stay here for three years. If the communication continues so slowly, when will there be a big project spontaneously formed by a few members? ah.

In his opinion, since His Highness King Qin's goal from the very beginning is to hope that these people can work together to do some projects, it should promote the communication of these people, not like it is now.

However, he really couldn't do anything in the past.

After all, to put it bluntly, at most he is just using Zhang Nuo's tiger skin as a banner. Everyone who is polite to him here, even the Duke of the state, has to talk to him for some face. For the sake of Zhang Nuo, the property manager of His Royal Highness King Qin.

So, you can ask him to be a witness, you can chat with him, but for the rest, forget it.

Of course, if His Royal Highness the King of Qin announced through his mouth that he was going to do something, then it would be two words.

Old Zheng, although he usually smiles at everyone he sees, he actually has his own thoughts in his heart.

If he wants to get his own status here, he must not only help His Highness King Qin manage the club here, but also let these members see his value.

Otherwise, three years later, when he leaves this position, he will only be left as the chairman of the Zheng Family Chamber of Commerce.

Perhaps he can rely on the friendship he has met with people in the clubhouse in the past few years, and come to chat with people, but that is only for a period of time. After a long time, the little bit of fate that was originally not deep will definitely disappear. Exhausted.

In the end, he was just an ordinary businessman as if he hadn't joined the Blue Sky Club.

All of the above, in fact, Lao Zheng is very clear, after all, isn't this the reason why he asked Zhang Nuo for this opportunity rashly.

If Lao Zheng wanted to make contributions and make troubles, he would naturally have to think about it. In addition, he had to get Zhang Nuo to support him. He knew very well that without Zhang Nuo at the front, even if he came up with a good project, others would not be able to do it. It is estimated that he will abandon him and recruit a group of people to do it himself.

Of course, everyone pays attention to people, so naturally the appearance will not be so ugly, and he will definitely give him some shares, and it is a dry stock that does not require money to invest in others.

But it is estimated that after a few years, these people will basically disappear.

Therefore, whenever Lao Zheng wanted to do something, he couldn't leave Zhang Nuo alone and do it alone. He had to report to Zhang Nuo first.

But Lao Zheng is also a caring person, knowing that not only did he come in late at Zhang Nuo's side, he was also a temporary worker who did not sell himself, or he was just given a chance because he was pleasing to the eye.

Don't ask for such a relationship if it's too presumptuous. It's even better not to be smart enough to curry favor with others. There is no shortage of flatterers. To put it in a very realistic way, Lao Zheng hasn't been in front of Zhang Nuo yet. Qualifications to flatter.

Because of knowing this, Lao Zheng seems to have been doing his own work in the Blue Sky Society in recent months, seemingly flat and honest.

But in fact, he is doing everything possible to scan and listen to all kinds of news, especially the news related to Zhang Nuo, because he knows that Zhang Nuo will only follow Zhang Nuo's own interests or policies. He chatted a few words.Otherwise, everything is useless.

Hard work pays off, after several months of persistence, he really found an entry point among the many news in a flash of inspiration.

That is the pinyin and compilation of "Zhenguan Dictionary" that Zhang Nuo is currently entrusting to Li Chengqian. He is not good at compiling, but if the pinyin is promoted, it seems that there are articles to do in it.

Chapter 932 Permission from Zhang Nuo

Lao Zheng is not a hesitant person either. Thinking about it, a businessman who just sold his manor to Zhang Nuo can use this opportunity to get on Zhang Nuo's line.

When Lao Zheng first learned about the popularization of pinyin, he just listened to it as a piece of news, and he actually enjoyed this feeling very much.

Because ordinary people can actually know a lot of news, but they only know the news, not like him, Lao Zheng, who can stand next to a group of top leaders in the court and listen to them explain the mystery and some things here. view.

There is nothing to keep secret about these things, it's just that ordinary people don't stand in this position, and they can't imagine that there are so many sayings behind one thing.

But these court bosses are different. Every policy or other arrangement of Zhang Nuo or Li Shimin, they can actually stand at a height that ordinary people can't see at all, using the information they know and their political wisdom To understand the meaning behind it.

This kind of thing, don't look like it's easy to say, after all, it seems that anyone on the Internet today can tell a lot about the country's policies, and it seems that there are people who really listen.

But in fact, there is a big difference here. Officials at the height of Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui, either they will keep silent, or they will talk about absolute insight, otherwise they will be sorry for their reputation.

As for the policies of a country as big as Datang, how can we see the whole picture from the surface?

In the end, they still have to stand tall enough to see farther.

After all, isn't that what blind people feel like when they feel an elephant? Now that I am in this mountain, it's no wonder that I don't know where the clouds are in the end.

Lao Zheng was very emotional about this point. In recent months, he felt that the news and opinions he had just heard were actually worth giving up his family business and staying here for a few years.

He also learned after listening to the conversations of these bigwigs that there are so many considerations and calculations behind a policy.

Compared with these big national policies, what are his little calculations and tricks among merchants in the past?

If Lao Zheng was a young man, maybe he would feel his blood boiling, thinking that he might be able to swim in the business world and officialdom after learning a few hands, and then get a lot of money.

If Lao Zheng was older, perhaps he would feel that life is nothing more than that, and instead of wasting time here, it would be better to take care of his life early.

But fortunately, Lao Zheng is now in the prime of life but has a certain amount of experience, so he is trying to absorb, learn, and try his best to think about whether there is his own opportunity in it.

In fact, he has a lot of things to do in the Lantian clubhouse every day. He needs to worry about the preparations for various banquets. Obviously the other party is much more professional than him.
