Traveling through history leaving a name

Chapter 271 "Da Song Bao"

Zhang Qingfeng didn't know that in the traditional society of ancient times, getting engaged was the same as being married.

Now that Zhang Qingfeng became an official and made a fortune, if he really abandoned Tian Ling, then others would definitely call him shameless, and his character would also be corrupted.

Hearing Zhang Qingfeng's words, Yang Maocai said: "With the stubborn temper of the young lady of the Tian family, if you really want to abandon her, I'm afraid that she will... think about the consequences yourself."

"Then, let's forget it." Hearing this, Zhang Qingfeng couldn't help but shudder. If Tian Ling really committed suicide because of him, he would be infamous for the rest of his life.

Even if he can be famous in the annals of history in this life, this incident will become an indelible shadow in his heart.

In fact, Tian Ling is a very good person, cultured and educated.

The reason why Zhang Qingfeng didn't like it was mainly because Tian Ling was too young, less than 15 years old, and looked like a child. If it was placed in modern times, it could start in three years, and the maximum penalty was death.

If he really wanted to marry Tian Ling, he would have to wait at least four or five years, otherwise he really couldn't accept it.

The next day, Zhang Qingfeng returned to Lin'an City again. This time, apart from his father Yang Maocai, there was also a group of members of the Han family who went back with him.

In ancient times, if one wanted not to be bullied, the clan was the most important force to rely on.

In ancient times, whether it was a fight or a rebellion, many clans advanced and retreated at the same time.

The Yang family's clan in Lin'an is not very big, but you can still find dozens of young and strong people.

Zhang Qingfeng now has so much money in his hands, if someone has evil intentions towards him, it will be too dangerous without a group of reliable people to protect him.

It is different if there is a clan, although there are many dirty things in the clan.But they are all related, at least no one will be so mad that they will kill Yang Sanlang's family and then blatantly rob money.

What's more, Zhang Qingfeng is still an official of the imperial court, and his family members can only commit crimes if they want to steal flowers.

If it is an outsider, it will be different. If you rob it and run away, killing someone by the way, no one will know who did it.

Looking for protection from clan members, Zhang Qingfeng would naturally not treat them badly.

As the saying goes, this is the case when one person attains the Tao and the chicken dog ascends to heaven.

When Zhang Qingfeng gets promoted and gets rich, people of the same clan will naturally enjoy many benefits.

If Zhang Qingfeng rebels, people from the same clan will naturally be implicated and will be executed by the Nine Clan.

This is the reason why clans were able to prevail in ancient times. The clan power would not be broken and shattered by great men until after the founding of New China.

Closer to home.

When people from these clans came over, Zhang Qingfeng would arrange some lucrative jobs for them.

Zhang Qingfeng also lent a lot of development funds to some clan families who wanted to do business.

"Uncle Xingde, this is how to make cement. If you can make cement as soon as possible, I will buy it at a high price, and I promise you will make money." Zhang Qingfeng promised to an old man in his 50s Said.

He planned to build a theater that could accommodate 5000 people, so he needed a lot of cement, because wood could not support such a large and small building, and such a large wooden beam was too expensive, so expensive that Zhang Qingfeng could not afford it.

Therefore, he handed over the cement business to his clansmen. If it is done well, he can save a lot of cost in building the theater.

The people in the clan couldn't come up with any money, so he lent them all, and only returned it to him when the cement made money in the future.

"Sanlang, can you really make money with this cement?" A clansman still asked Zhang Qingfeng worriedly.

"Uncle Gong, don't worry, this is a technology passed down from the Western Roman Empire. You just need to do what I say, and I will pay for the loss." Zhang Qingfeng said.

"We are also afraid of losing your money." A clansman said to Zhang Qingfeng.

"It's okay, it's just a small amount of money." Zhang Qingfeng said nonchalantly.

The money he invested in building a cement workshop for the clan was not much, only a few thousand guan, which was the money for dozens of sets of The Romance of the Gods.

In addition, cement does not have any technical content, and he believes that members of the Yang family should be able to make it soon.

He didn't need the special cement of later generations to build the Grand Theater. He only needed ordinary Portland cement.

The manufacture of this kind of cement is very simple, without any technical content at all. It just uses limestone and clay to calcinate clinker according to the proportion, and finally grinds it into powder and adds gypsum powder to prepare it.

Adding gypsum powder is mainly to prevent the cement from solidifying too quickly, otherwise the newly mixed cement slurry will harden after a while, which will be inconvenient for workers to construct.

This Portland cement is actually the ordinary cement of later generations.

Although its strength is not as strong as the special cement used to build high-rise buildings, it is basically used in the construction of rural houses in later generations.

With cement, Zhang Qingfeng didn't need to spend a lot of money to transport the girders back from the deep mountains and old forests hundreds of miles away to build the Grand Theater.

As long as the mold is made, and then the reinforced concrete is poured, a large beam will be formed. This reinforced concrete beam can bear much better load than any wooden beam.

In addition to the cement workshop, Zhang Qingfeng also handed over the glass firing method to his two brothers-in-law.

In addition to cement in the Grand Theater, Zhang Qingfeng naturally wanted to decorate some glass, porcelain and other materials.

Zhang Qingfeng did not say that he invented the glass firing technology, but pushed it to Magellan's voyage diary, saying that it was a technology learned by Magellan's men from the far west.

At this time, the West has long been able to manufacture glass.

The reason why he said this was mainly because he was afraid that he would become an inventor and be judged by the system to fail the task.

Moreover, he planned many inventions in the future, and he pushed them to Magellan.

Time passed, and after Zhang Qingfeng made money, he spent a lot of money to buy a few pieces of land in Lin'an City, making all his lands the size of half a football field.

At the same time, Zhang Qingfeng is also stepping up printing books to sell money, trying to earn more money to build the theater.

……

On this day, in Lin'an City, there was an extra newspaper called "Da Song Bao".

This newspaper, as soon as it was released, reported many major news happening in various parts of the Song Dynasty, as well as many policies issued by the imperial court, etc., and immediately attracted a large number of readers.

In just a few days, the newspaper sold an exaggerated [-] copies.

And this newspaper was run by Prime Minister Han Yuzhou. In order to promote the newspaper, he even used administrative power.

When sales rose too fast and printing couldn't keep up, Han Dongzhou bought ten printing machines and several sets of lead type in one go.

Ten printing machines can print at least [-] newspapers a day. From this point of view, Han Xianggong's ambition is very big.

"Sanlang, there is no way to compare our Dasong Daily newspaper with Dasong Daily. People can get a lot of news from the memorials of officials from all over the court, and we can't compare at all." Lu Ziyu said a little annoyed.

"It's okay, we can't get news from all over the world, so we should find another way." Zhang Qingfeng comforted Lu Ziyu.
