Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Although Zhao Chuanxin said this in anger, it counts.

There were different opinions after the article was published in the newspaper.

Some people actually called Zhao Chuanxin a lackey of corrupt officials and evil gentry.

When Tang Qunying read the newspaper, he slammed the table and said, "This is the first time I admire our prefect!"

Rebecca Levy looked askance.

Tang Qunying smiled and said, "You are pregnant. Is that a scare for you?"

"No, just enjoy yourself."

"..."

A few days later, the news spread and many women went to Lubin Prefecture and Lugang Town to join the army.

Yao Jia discussed it with Hu Da, Liu Baogui discussed it with Zhao Zhongyi, and both parties made an intriguing decision at the same time: the Insurance Team and the Gray Axe Army would recruit female soldiers.

On July 7, when Qu Shiwen led the rebel army to besiege Laiyang City, his eldest son Qu Hongyan was killed.

The reason was that after the government garrison saw Zhao Chuanxin's reward in the newspaper, they disintegrated from within Qu Shiwen's uprising army and spread the news everywhere.

Someone took advantage of the chaos and killed Qu Hongyan.

Qu Shiwen suddenly looked ten years older and started to curse Zhao Chuanxin as worse than a beast.

Two days later, the rebel army was attacked from all sides and was running out of ammunition and food when they were retreating. Qu Shiwen's third son Qu Hongchang was killed in the chaos.

Two people went to claim the reward. One of them was not low-key enough and spent money like water. People noticed his intention and beat him to death by those who wanted to avenge Qu Shiwen.

The other murderer kept a low profile and escaped death by keeping his tail between his legs.

Current commentary was mixed.

Some people say that Zhao Chuanxin's open hiring of a killer has a bad impact on morality and law. Some people say that this behavior is very Zhao Chuanxin, who always stands up for the weak without considering the consequences. This is not the first time, so people are really surprised by what they see.

Coincidentally, Zhao Chuanxin’s Internet company opened, and this matter became the first hot topic.

……

When an Internet company opens for business, all major newspapers send reporters to observe.

Nie Xianzhong, a reporter from Shenbao, dressed neatly and rushed to the north of Nichengqiao West Road in Shanghai.

The architecture of Internet companies is unique. It is not Dutch colonial style, Baroque style, or European classical style, but a completely new style that is different from the contemporary style.

There were staff members explaining to reporters from all over the country. Nie Xianzhong arrived late, so he squeezed into the crowd to listen.

"At the beginning, Mr. Zhao hired photographers from China, Britain, the United States and France to take a lot of photos near Nicheng Bridge. Among them was Morrison, the chief reporter of The Times in China. They captured the subtle layout of the surrounding houses and shops from various angles."

"Mr. Zhao doesn't like the extravagant and greasy style of Baroque, nor does he like the European classical style that has nothing to do with China. So he started with the traditional Chinese gardening ideas and renovated the surrounding residential buildings. Internet company architecture should be simple and modest, and should be in harmony with nature and man."

"Therefore, the architecture itself should follow the principle of subtraction, like the radicals of Chinese characters."

“Therefore, Mr. Zhao’s design intuitively grasps the original spontaneous architectural settlement form around Nicheng Bridge, maintaining the continuity of humanities.”

"As you can see, simple masonry methods such as plain brick walls, stone walls, rammed earth walls, and cement plastered natural walls can also create luxury and vitality."

"This is a basic instinctive wisdom in facing the market. Internet companies must take root in the land of Nichengqiao."

After some explanation from the staff, Nie Xianzhong suddenly understood.

He had passed by this place several times before, and he felt that this place had the artistic conception of a quiet, remote and unobtrusive place in the midst of a bustling and prosperous town.

Although the building looks simple, it turns simplicity into luxury by simply using black-painted iron floor-to-ceiling window frames and door frames, as well as large groups of glass.

Glass is expensive, but it provides good lighting.

The outside is simple, but the internal structure is not simple.

Moreover, the green plants of various shapes and indoor flowing water give the illusion of moving a classical garden indoors.

The staff showed them the reception hall and the layout and guide map on the wall.

Next is the Internet public screen.

The so-called public screen is a slide show.

The public screen hall is well lit, but a special structure is used to block out light on the public screen, so that slides can be shown normally.

Common people and gentry have already visited this place.

Nie Xianzhong looked at the public screen, which showed news, advertisements, house rental prices in various places, prices of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, color photos, and serial stories...

Nie Xianzhong deliberately observed it carefully and found that the public screen was actually composed of multiple slides seamlessly spliced ​​together, just like the sections of a newspaper.

For example, in the rental column, a huge house in Xuejiagang tops the list. It has four large rooms, color photos, and the rent is two yuan per month.

The staff member said: "Everyone, if you want to browse the details of the information on the public screen, or search for keywords, there is a private screen area. We will provide the most detailed search and comprehensive investigation, so you can know what is happening in the world without leaving home."

“If you are a businessman, you will find business opportunities here.”

"If you were an official, you would spy on the Qimin Yaoshu in various messages."

"If you are new here and want to settle down, we have reliable information on house rentals and sales."

"In addition, we have perfected a transportation network connecting the east, west, south and north. Whether it is bulk goods or small items, they can be transported quickly. From tons of goods to a letter, the speed is guaranteed to be the fastest in the country. You can even see the progress of your goods transportation. We currently have 17 outlets for updates, which can be viewed daily."

"We purchase the latest model trucks from Juanwang Technical College for logistics, which can run day and night and are much more efficient than oxen and horses."

“We have our own shipping company at sea.”

Nie Xianzhong saw a message on the public screen: Houchang County under Lugang Town is in urgent need of 300 kilograms of Keemun black tea. Anyone interested please send a message by telex or via the Internet to...

He asked, "Excuse me, someone is purchasing items here, how do I transfer the money and goods?"

The staff member smiled and said: "For bulk business, you have to pay insurance premiums. The Internet company is associated with Lubinfu Bank. After receiving the goods, you can directly transfer the money to another place and go to the bank to withdraw cash at any time."

Nie Xianzhong's mind was quick and his eyes widened immediately.

That is to say, both parties can buy and sell through the Internet company, which also has a related logistics system. All the buyers and sellers need to do is to read the information and communicate. The rest is all taken care of by the company, and all they have to do is wait to make money.

Then he saw another piece of news scrolling on the public screen: Japan signed a land cession agreement with the Beishui Army and Lugang Town.

hiss……

The crowd in the public screen meeting room was moved.

"In recent years, Zhao Chuanxin has revived the nation from decline and saved it from extinction, regaining lost territory from Tsarist Russia and Japan, and never yielding to the tide of the times. He is truly a hero of the time."

"Zhao Tan Gong stood tall and had no one to lean on. He hated evil and was strict. He was merciful in his punishments. He always kept his word and accomplished his mission. It's ridiculous that people would use scoundrels like Qu Shiwen to attack a hero like Zhao Tan Gong."

"His contributions to the country and the people in maintaining internal peace and resisting foreign aggression are nothing compared to Qu Shiwen's achievements!"

Nie Xianzhong listened to people's discussions and thought that there were indeed many people here who were clear-headed and did not follow the crowd.

In addition, this public screen is indeed sharper than a newspaper.

Newspapers require a series of processes including compilation, typeset, printing, etc., and it takes a long time to reach the hands of the people.

But here you can update the news at any time.

Especially text messages, which only require one sentence and can be updated anytime and anywhere.

It is conceivable that impatient people will probably not read newspapers in the future.

The staff member also said: "We have a database stored in Beijing, and we can dispatch it at any time if needed."

Actually it is the Morrison Library.

Based on Nikola Tesla's improved telegraph image fax technology, both pictures and maps can be transmitted.

At this time, a new message appeared in the comment area on the public screen: Zhao Chuanxin openly hired a killer to kill someone, which is really unbearable. Since then, many people have taken ill-gotten gains and even set a price for hiring a killer. The three sons of Qu Shiwen were all killed by the thief. From then on, there was no more descendants. It's a pity...

As soon as the news came out, the crowd in the hall went wild.

The first reason is that the Internet company actually posted news that slandered Zhao Chuanxin.

This is really exciting. Isn't this true freedom of speech?

The second is that many people are angry that someone slandered Zhao Chuanxin.

They rubbed their hands together and said, "This is really outrageous! Come on, tell me how to speak, and I will tear this beast to pieces!"

Nie Xianzhong watched the fun with great interest.

The staff told the person that if he wanted to post an article on the public screen, he needed to write it first and then have it reviewed. Once the article passed the review, it could be published. If the article became popular, he could get royalties.

However, if you leave a message under a news item, you have to pay.

What is this rule?

Who would be stupid enough to write a message out of their own pocket?

Just as he had this thought, he saw a new message on the public screen about Zhao Chuanxin.

My old friend betrayed the empty city: Qu Shiwen killed his wife and daughter to make an oath and you sang praises about it, and you were anxious about Qu Shiwen's interruption. What a hypocrite!

Regarding the Qu Shiwen case, Nie Xianzhong stood on the side of Zhao Chuanxin.

When he heard about this, he was also angry.

As Zhao Chuanxin said: You may rebel, but why did you kill your wife and daughter to swear an oath? Why didn't you kill your son to swear an oath?

Even though he packages himself as tragic and heroic, he is reluctant to leave his family and instead uses his wife and daughter as a scapegoat. Isn't this being a hypocrite?

It’s a pity that Marshal Qu was able to shout it out.

After seeing this message, Nie Xianzhong felt relieved.

Just when I was feeling secretly happy, the public screen started scrolling again.

New message.

Zhang Jiyan: Just because you have done good for the country and the people, you can do whatever you want? Such people are in high positions and have great power, and they can cause even more harm!

Nie Xianzhong discovered that there was a line of small words at the end of the message - this message came from Tianjin.

"Interesting, can you leave your name?"

"That's really interesting. I want to leave a message too."

“Is this a real-time update? Did you choose the name yourself?”

The staff member affirmed: "Yes, you can name yourself on the Internet. This is a real-time update. Just now, a netizen left a message on Tianjin Wei."

"If I write a message now, will it be posted on the public screen immediately?"

"Exactly."

There is no doubt that this text message went viral.

Benjamin Goldberg, an Internet company in Lugang Town, held out his hand and said, "Give me money."

He wrote that commentary.

Liu Baogui was speechless: "Don't worry, the more messages you leave below, the higher the commission will be."

Yao Bing's eyes widened when he saw it: "This money is too easy to make, I can do it too."

After Yanbian was stabilized, the two of them and Li Shutong returned to Lugang Town.

It coincided with the collective opening of Internet companies.

Liu Baogui was impatient, and seeing that the shop was still not open even though there were so many people around, he felt at a loss as to what to do.

Benjamin Goldberg said, "That's fine, look at me."

So he published a commentary slandering his master, and it went viral.

Benjamin didn't agree with Yao Bing's words: "Junior brother, the most important thing for a person is to know oneself. Master asked you to practice martial arts and asked me to learn literature. Obviously, my literature is better than your martial arts."

"How can we tell who is better, civil or military?" Yao Bing was dissatisfied: "Martial arts is definitely better than literature."

Liu Baogui took a sip of tea and said, "You two brothers should stop fighting over civil and military matters. You have been fighting for thousands of years without any result. How can you two do that?"

At this time, the public screen story area is updated.

"The Mortal's Path to Immortality" was written by a man with the pen name "Little Schoolbag Lu Ban".

The protagonist is Han Li, who was born in a small village...

"Brother, quick, what do you say for the sixth word in the fifth row?"

"Aren't you better at martial arts than I am at literature? See for yourself."

"Brother, you are too stingy."

Like his fellow disciples, there were more than one or two people who were fascinated by this story.

The main reason was that this kind of immortal cultivation novel was unheard of, after all, Huanzhu Louzhu was only 9 years old.

A short message was refreshed on the cargo public screen.

Please call me a newcomer: Great Heat solar term event - discount sale of old mountain ginseng, discount sale, so cheap that it's outrageous...

Some people were attracted after seeing the price and photos.

The size of that ginseng is so scary, how did it grow?

Chen Kongkong: There are three large tiled houses for rent in the old city campus of Lugang Town, and the price is only 3 Mala coins per month.

In a foreign Internet company.

“What is Mala Coin?”

"It's the female general's money, the kind issued by Lugang Town Bank and Lubinfu Bank."

Guarding the light in your heart: Lubinfu copper pot hot pot, a mouthful of hot pot, a strong human touch...

Qian Duoduo: A large transport truck with a closed compartment. Even the kind-hearted Kumar has to sweat profusely in his big brother’s transport…

In less than a week, the parking lot outside the Internet company was no longer able to accommodate so many carriages.

There were no tickets, but the common people also wanted to join in the fun, the literati wanted to go and rant, the gentry wanted to do business, the immigrants wanted to rent or buy houses, the wealthy and refined people wanted to read novels...

Internet halls in various places are overcrowded and can only operate normally by limiting the flow of users.

For a week in a row, most official business in Lubin Prefecture had to give way to Internet companies.

Yao Jia was shocked and said, "What a good money tree the prefect has planted."

Zhang Shouzeng was shocked by the revenue of the Lubin Prefecture government office: "Even a place as remote as Liangzhou City is making a fortune every day?"

Internet companies integrate catering, entertainment, department stores, finance, communications, advertising, logistics, etc.

Every day, a lot of people spend money just to spout some meaningless trash talk.

Rebecca Levi held the account and said, "The prefect's plan is far more than this. You only see the accounts of normal operations, but you don't pay attention to how much risk money and temporarily withheld transaction money there are. The prefect's shop selling ginseng in South Korea, the risk money and withheld transaction money, now add up to 15 yuan. It takes about 4 days to transport ginseng from South Korea to Shanghai, even if it is a -knot speedboat. If there are people trading, then there will be million yuan of funds staked in the Internet company for a long time. If there are people trading, there will be million yuan..."

Yao Jia and Zhang Shouzeng were dumbfounded.

Twenty million yuan, this money is deposited in Lubinfu Bank for a long time, and you can make a lot of money by doing any project.

What if it’s 200 million?

Both of them began to breathe heavily.

Rebecca Levy smiled and said, "Of course, our Internet company has too few operating locations, and we can't reach that level of customer traffic right now."

Yao Jia slammed the table so hard that Tang Qunying and others shuddered.

He shouted, "What are you waiting for? Let Zhongyi and the others build Internet halls right away. The more the better..."

……

The ginseng that Zhao Chuanxin sells is grown from ginseng seeds he bought, and grown using the smelly liquid from the foundation stones of the ladder to heaven.

He went to Hong Kong Island with the money he earned from selling ginseng.

Because Gulizar told him: she was pregnant.
