When he walked out of the palace, Xia Hongsheng smiled self-deprecatingly, and said in his heart that he would really find things for himself!

However, this is what Xia Hongsheng wants to do the most, and he will also pay for Xia Hongsheng's life's hard work to position himself.

The construction sites of the two cities in the east and west have started in full swing again, and it will take more than two months to complete the construction of the two cities in the east and west. The new East and West Cities will be more suitable for development as commercial districts. Folk husbands who retired from the construction sites in the east and west cities could be hired again and directly started building the academy in Jingyang. Xia Hongsheng is a person who plans in his heart and prepares to be in front, and since the beginning of last year, Xia Hongsheng has asked the housekeeper and the bookkeeper to buy land near Zhuangzi. The vast majority of them are uncultivated wasteland, and many of them are still mountainous, so the Jingyang County Commander is also happy to Xia Hongsheng to buy them. For Xia Hongsheng, a mountain-style garden-style university built on the mountain and looming in the top of the mountain is far more charming than the campus with a flat and straightforward courtyard strung together with a courtyard.

But there is still not enough land.

Xia Hongsheng wanted to build a university that integrated various disciplines, and in this way, it would become a base for the development of Datang's science. He needs more land.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of land around Jingyang, and a large area of uncultivated land can be bought from the hands of the county government. And if it is not necessary, Xia Hongsheng does not want to occupy too much cultivated land that has been reclaimed.

Therefore, some of the people who have retired from the construction sites in the two cities of East and West will go to Jingyang and start to lay the foundation of the ground on those lands, so that they can be used for construction and lay the foundation. And the other part. It will start from the east and west cities. Build a smooth avenue. The road between the two cities of East and West. A new material will be used for the construction, which is the residue of gasoline in the military machine mill - the residue of crude oil after distilling it many times, asphalt. Asphalt mixed with gravel, paved roads are better than concrete roads. It's just that today's technology is insufficient, the output is too small, the distilled gasoline is not enough for the imperial court to equip the army, and the remaining residues of distillation are naturally far from enough for large-scale paving. And, after all, it is not as good as the asphalt of later generations.

From the beginning of Chang'an City. It will be replaced by a cement road, which leads directly to Jingyang, and then connects with the cement road on Xia Hongsheng Zhuangzi.

After Xia Hongsheng came out of the palace, he went directly out of Chang'an City. In the lower reaches of the Wei River, there was a burst of ink fragrance from a workshop by the river.

Walking inside, I saw that the craftsmen were busy rubbing, and when they saw Xia Hongsheng coming in, they saluted one after another.

"Childe, you're here!" The shopkeeper of the printing house ran to Xia Hongsheng and bowed.

Xia Hongsheng nodded. Said: "How's the printing?" ”

"Returning to Gongzi, more than 1,000 copies of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" have been printed. I store it in the storeroom. The typesetting of "The Condor Heroes" is also almost complete, and I think that it will be ready to be printed in less than a month. The shopkeeper said to Xia Hongsheng.

"What I told you earlier, you can try to print a few first. It doesn't take too much, two can be used, one tomorrow, one the day after tomorrow, and I'm ready to hand over two to me for the time being. Xia Hongsheng explained to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper nodded vigorously: "The little one obeys!" It's just, Childe, this content is ...... Although our craftsmen here are literate, they can't write articles! ”

Xia Hongsheng was stunned, how could he forget this stubble! I don't have an editorial office, so what kind of newspaper do I print!

"Forget it, then postpone the time by one day, tomorrow evening, I will send the content over, print it overnight, and send it to me the morning after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow it was still evening, and I sent someone to bring me new content, which was still printed overnight and delivered to me the next morning. Xia Hongsheng thought for a while and said to the shopkeeper: "As for the paper arrangement and the content arrangement of the sections, it will be as agreed before." ”

The East and West Cities are about to be completed, and the matter that was delayed because of the burning of the East City must also be put on the agenda again as soon as possible. There are still almost two months, which should be enough for the printing house and the editorial office to find a suitable cycle. If possible, it will be made into a daily newspaper, but if the content and printing cannot keep up, the cycle will have to be extended and made into a weekly report.

Because of the burning of the East and West Cities and the impact of the arrest of the rebellious party in Chang'an City at that time, two important things were delayed last year. One is the book house and the sale of books, and the other is the cultural and military conference jointly organized by the wine shop, glass workshop, Mingxiangju and other industries. Now that the completion of the two cities in the east and west is imminent, these two things should also start again as soon as possible.

It basically takes more than 100 days for a storyteller to finish a novel, so it is enough to wait until those novels are printed, and wait for Xia Hongsheng to complete a few more. The civil and military conference can also take advantage of this time to go to various places to publicize, leaving enough time in the middle to ensure that people who want to participate in the civil and military conference can come to Chang'an in the summer.

Xia Hongsheng left the printing house, seeing that the sun had already set, and it was not worth going anywhere else, so he went home.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the house, I saw a family member standing in front of the door looking around, and when he saw Xia Hongsheng going back, he hurriedly ran forward and saluted Xia Hongsheng and said: "Childe, there was a musician at home just now, and he was looking for Miss Yuexian, and he was introduced by Miss Yuexian." Miss Yuexian asked the little one to wait for Childe here, and as soon as she saw Childe come back, she told Childe to let Childe go directly to the study. ”

Musicians? It's Pei Shenrune!

Xia Hongsheng hurriedly handed over the horse to his subordinates, and hurriedly went back to the study.

As soon as I walked to the door of the study, I was about to push the door in, but suddenly I heard a string sound inside, and then the noisy sound was like a jade pearl falling on a jade plate, like a spring flowing out.

Xia Hongsheng didn't push the door to interrupt, and stood outside the door and listened quietly. The lute he plays is indeed beautiful, sometimes tactful, sometimes agitated, and fascinating.

It wasn't until the sound of the pipa in the study stopped that Xia Hongsheng pushed the door in and said with a smile: "I have heard Mr. Pei's name of good music for a long time, and I have admired it for a long time in my heart." Today, I am fortunate to hear a song by Mr., when March does not know the taste of meat! ”

While speaking, Xia Hongsheng looked at Pei Shenfu, and Pei Shenfu was also looking at Xia Hongsheng. Seeing that Xia Hongsheng was so young, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

"Childe, this is the Pei Leshi that the slave family said." Yuexian introduced: "Pei Leshi, this is my son-in-law. ”

"In Xia Hongsheng, the word Jingshi, this is polite." Xia Hongsheng arched his hand and said hello with a smile.

Pei Shenfu nodded, withdrew his eyes from Xia Hongsheng's body, and said indifferently while lowering his head to adjust the pipa strings: "Oh, Luo'er is a wanderer in the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't know what etiquette is, Xia Gongzi forgive me." ”

After that, he looked at the Moon Fairy again and said, "Moon Fairy girl, you and I haven't been masked for a long time, why don't you play a song together and talk about your thoughts together?" (To be continued.) )
