Chapter 587 Shang Yun did it first
Jin Zhong took a sip of tea and said comfortably: "It's just a dictionary. I'm the one who makes the decision, so there's no big problem."
Fang Xing waited for him to slow down before saying, "Fifty thousand copies!"
"Clang!"
The teacup in Jin Zhong's hand paused on the table, and his eyelids twitched wildly and said, "Fifty thousand copies?"
"Yes, the first batch of 50,000 copies."
Fang Xing laughed and thought to himself that you dared not agree without saying a word.
After all, Jin Zhong had been through storms for a long time. After being shocked, he asked: "Dehua, don't be too worried. The first batch should be printed less."
This is because Fang Xingyin lost money if he was too much, so Fang Xing smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Jin, Fang is still sure."
So Fang Xing told Jin Zhong all about his plans, including printing with movable type, using cheap paper as much as possible, etc.
Jin Zhongfu said, "Do you want the people to afford it?"
Fang Xing nodded slightly, this was exactly his wish.
Why is it difficult to study these days?
One is the tuition fee, and the other is that there is less labor at home, so I am reluctant.
The most important thing is that the success rate of the imperial examination is too low. There are so many scholars across the country, but just a scholar can make most scholars fail the exam in their entire lives.
The result of failing the exam is that the family’s early investment was wasted.
These investments can almost make an ordinary family tighten their belts and wait to enjoy the happiness after passing the exam.
"The future of the Ming Dynasty requires countless literate people, even if he is just a farmer. As long as he continues to learn from generation to generation, the people's abilities will definitely become higher and higher, and then..."
Thinking of the countless people who knew their literacy after the Ming Dynasty, Fang Xing felt that his future goals were really not difficult.
Jin Zhong smiled and said, "Okay, I'm afraid I won't see that day anymore. But generation after generation, my Ming Dynasty talents emerge one after another. Don't forget to tell me underground at that time."
During the meal, Fang Xing asked Shang Yun about it.
Jin Zhong put down his chopsticks and said, "This person usually looks diligent and is harmonious with his colleagues. But during those days when I was seriously ill, this person jumped up and down, connected everywhere, and even slandered his colleagues. Alas! I have misunderstood in the past!"
Fang Xingran said: "The fame and fame are too hot and the means are too dirty. No wonder this person asks me to plead with you today."
Jin Zhong took a sip of the good wine that Fang Xing brought and said melancholy: "I can't tolerate sand in my eyes!"
Fang Xing secretly admired him, and at the same time sighed that there were fewer and fewer such upright officials in the future. Hai Rui shocked the entire Ming Dynasty inexplicably, which showed its corruption.
"Mr. Jin, if you don't kill a snake, you will suffer if you don't die. You should do it faster."
Jin Zhong was stunned: "No, can he be, does Shang Yun dare to do something bad in secret? He doesn't have the ability either!"
Fang Xing said lightly: "This kind of person is too selfish and likes to find a backer. Since you can't rely on your backer, he will definitely look for something more powerful."
"Don't underestimate villains, villains often make big mistakes!"
History is vast, and there are countless examples of bad things that are caused by humble identities.
Fang Xing felt that Shang Yun was just a poisonous snake, and smiling was just to hide his nature. So he would take action before Shang Yun could cause a threat.
If Jin Zhong disagrees, Fang Xing will take action. This has nothing to do with human nature, but Fang Xing doesn’t like the feeling of being like a slut in his back, so he doesn’t like it very much!
Jin Zhong pondered: "Dehua, it will be too much to punish him without being taught. Let's wait until I talk to him tomorrow. If it is not harmonious, I..."
"Master, Xing and Bo's family have something to ask for your meeting."
Fang Xing stood up and accused him of guilt, and when he went out, he saw Xiaodao.
The two walked to the secluded place and Xiaodao said, "Master, Shang Yun disguised himself and went to Ji Gang's house."
Fang Xing said calmly: "How long have you been there?"
"More than a quarter of an hour."
Fang Xing returned to the dining table, Jin Zhong was still thinking. When he saw him, he sighed: "Forget it, I will let him rest for a few days tomorrow. If he can repent, I will report to His Majesty and change him to another place."
This is a generous decision, but Fang Xing turned this generous decision into humiliation.
"Mr. Jin, Shang Yun went to find Ji Gang."
Fang Xing felt a little reluctant to let such a generous elder be slapped by his subordinates, but facts are facts, and deception and concealment are insults to Jin Zhong.
Jin Zhong's right hand wanted to get chopsticks, but he stopped in the air when he heard this, and then his face turned red.
`
"Bang!"
Jin Zhong slapped the table hard and coughed dryly, "Damn it! Bastard it!"
Fang Xing hurried over and patted him on the back, and advised: "It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Don't get angry with your body, otherwise Shang Yun will definitely be extremely proud, that is, the relatives are hurt, the enemy... Uh! Lord Jin, don't cough anymore, come here, bring warm water."
...
The next day, Shang Yun entered the Ministry of War, greeted his colleagues with a smile, and entered his own pay room.
After closing the door, the smile on Shang Yun's face disappeared, and the ferociousness gradually occupied his long face. Ji Gang's words echoed in his ears last night.
"Fang Xing is vengeful. You can think about it yourself, but I would like to remind you that if you kill a snake, you will suffer if you don't die!"
Shang Yun remembered Ji Gang's promise and couldn't help but smiled gloomyly: "Fang Xing, you can sit firmly..."
Fang Xing was not sitting steadily because Xiaobai was sitting in his arms and sleeping casually.
After Zhang Shuhui came in and saw it, she frowned and said, "This girl got up before dawn. Just to pick dew. If she dares to do this tomorrow, she will beat her butt to pieces!"
Fang Xing hugged Xiaobai's slender waist and smiled apologized: "Shuhui calms down, this girl must not dare."
Xiaobai twisted in Fang Xing's arms for a moment, then opened his eyes in a daze, yawned a little, "Madam, young master."
I said! Why did you put me behind?
Fang Xing was unhappy and quietly pinched it. But the touch was not right, and Xiaobai's reaction was a bit intense.
"ah……"
Xiaobai suddenly jumped out of Fang Xing's arms, and his pink face turned redder, and his feet were a little weak and said angrily: "Young Master..."
When Zhang Shuhui saw the place where Xiaobai was covering her hands, she said suspiciously: "Where did you touch me, husband?"
Xiaobai's face was almost red and bleeding, and she lowered her head and said nothing.
Fang Xing coughed dryly and said, "What should I eat for lunch?"
Zhang Shuhui gave him a blank look and said, "The weather is dry, Hua Niang said it is best to drink a meal of porridge."
After Zhang Shuhui went out, Fang Xing and Xiaobai looked at each other. Both of them were carnivorous animals, how could they do vegetable porridge?
The family of three was flirting, and the morning court was almost over.
Zhu Di felt a little unsatisfied. Seeing that the person who reported the matter was gone, he said, "I'll be here today, and all the officials will return to the yamen."
The ministers were preparing to salute, but someone outside sent memorials.
"Your Majesty, Shang Yun, the head of the Ministry of War, has a memorial."
At this time, it is probably an urgent matter, so Zhu Di endured the impatient treatment and took it, but after reading it, he became a little annoyed.
"Go and call Shang Yunlai, and let Xing and Bo... come here too."
Someone went out to report it immediately. When the ministers heard Fang Xing’s name, they immediately understood the general.
How dare Shang Yun impeach Fang Xing?
