Yuefang taught the technology of making the tumbler stage car to the Ministry of Industry, and the people in the Ministry of Industry immediately started to make it. After it was completed, it was sent to various places one after another.
People from the local businessmen also sought out local opera troupes to learn the lyrics of Chen Shuang Lou, and prepared to go on board and sing when the tumbler opera stage carriage arrived.
Cement roads in various places were successfully put into operation and then test runs began.
Yan Shiyue now has people on hand. Two shadow guards have been sent to each place. They have eagle communications, which is fast and convenient. They will be responsible for reporting information at any time.
The situation was much better than she had expected. You have to know that people at that time liked to guess the intentions of the court, so after testing the car and being given the Yuwen car, many people took the initiative to buy cement for paving the road.
Yan Shiyue was generous in rewarding these people.
The tumbler stage car was launched and began touring around the country, singing the praises of cement roads.
This was really a new thing in this era, and Shen Shuanglou's lyrics were straightforward and simple, with a catchy tune. He was a little nervous when he handed it over, but Yan Shiyue was very satisfied.
A brainwashing song should have a simple tune so that it can be sung in the streets and alleys quickly.
At this point, the usefulness of the Shadow Guard became apparent, and everyone discovered that this brainwashing song was actually changing every day!
...
...
Sometimes you would hear a few more sentences added: "Li Zhucheng, the cloth merchant from Suizhou, built a road from Nanzhen to Yushan... Cheng Zifang, the winery owner in Xiangzhou, built another ten and a half miles today..."
The words are simple, but it’s brainwashing! It’s really brainwashing.
When everyone heard this, they were like, just building a road can make the whole world famous!
Some sought fame, some followed the trend, and some were clear-headed and saw the effect of the "advertising". They all flocked to it. Simao was well prepared and there was sufficient supply of cement in various places, and it was selling like hot cakes.
In fact, many people are critical of this and feel that this operation still has some problems.
But I was really convinced in my heart. After some magical operation, the other party actually sold the cement and made a lot of money.
But compared to the overt and covert pressure from other court officials, this method is really not a method, okay? !
Yan Shiyue, however, had a clear conscience.
Cement is not valuable, but advertising is valuable! Her advertising is worth the price! Everyone gets what they need, it's fair!
And Yan Shiyue did not let go of anyone in the capital.
The tumbler opera stage car is turning around the streets every day. Don't the people in Chang'an think they are superior every day? Other places have cement roads everywhere, but you still have room to sit?
Sure enough, within two days, cement started to sell like hot cakes, and Yuefang and Mengji also bought some.
Qu Sinian felt relieved when he heard the good news.
At this point, he finally understood what Yan Shiyue meant by "learn from each other, help each other and surpass each other".
As a result, one day when I went to the Duke's Mansion, I saw Yan Shiyue with a sad face. Huo Qijing was pinching walnuts for her to eat. He didn't need any tools. He just rubbed them with his fingers and made them one by one. It was very skillful.
Qu Sinian asked: "Prime Minister, what's wrong?"
Yan Shiyue sighed, "Oh!" and ate the walnut kernel from Huo Qijing's hand.
Qu Sinian watched her performance silently, and sincerely supported her: "Prime Minister? Is there anything you can do for me?"
"I'm really not saying this," Yan Shiyue said as he ate, "This scholar is Mo Ji. My trump card is finally here, but I find that I don't really need it anymore..."
Qu Sinian asked: "What is it?"
She sighed again: "Alas!"
Haha! Don't think that just because you keep sighing, I don't know you are keeping me in suspense! Qu Sinian suddenly realized something: "Ask them where they are?"
Yan Shiyue pointed to the side and said, "They are looking at my trump card!"
Qu Sinian's heart moved, and he immediately rushed over, then he was shocked.
Wen Zhouheng is really a man who, when he moves, does nothing at all.
He directly organized a... how should I put it, a Qinzhou-themed calligraphy and painting exhibition? You know, those few were all legendary Confucian scholars, and they were all wandering scholars who were rarely seen, and very few of their calligraphy and painting works were handed down.
Today, there are eight paintings, articles, and calligraphy, all of which are exquisite.
Xu Wenqu and a few others almost rushed over when they saw her. Yan Shiyue went in twice, and these people were all infatuated. This was almost like a fanboy seeing his idol.
Yan Shiyue let them have their fun until they were satisfied, and then he brought the calligraphy and paintings into the palace to show them to Emperor Ming Yan.
When Emperor Ming Yan saw her coming in with a big belly, he couldn't help but say, "If there is anything, just ask someone else to come. Why are you running around?"
Yan Shiyue said: "Bring something for Aye to see."
She pointed behind her, and Emperor Ming Yan saw a young eunuch Yiye holding a box behind her, so he asked casually, "What is it?"
At the same time, he asked someone to bring a chair over and put a cushion on it.
When Gu Jiuxing opened the box and showed it to the Emperor, Ming Yan almost spit out his tea: "What is this?" He quickly got up from his seat and took a closer look: "Is this the work of Wen Zhouheng? This is... a painting of Qinzhou?"
Yan Shiyue said, "A few months ago, I asked the Northern Academy to support me, but Mr. Wen took so long to send it to me. I was almost done with the show..." She noticed the look on Emperor Ming Yan's face, "What's wrong?"
Emperor Ming Yan shook his head and sighed: "Although the calligraphy and painting are good, it is a pity that they have not entered the hands of the wise master!"
He ordered people to open them one by one for a careful look. A young eunuch was a little too quick and was scolded. Yan Shiyue silently watched Emperor Ming Yan with his hands behind his back, admiring them back and forth, and no longer mentioned his busy state affairs.
He had been looking at it for 25 minutes until he had had enough and asked someone to put it away. Yan Shiyue had no choice but to step forward to stop him: "Well... Aye, I didn't plan to give it to you, I just brought it here for you to see."
Emperor Mingyan glared at her, and Yan Shiyue changed her words: "How about I wait until I'm done with it, then give it to you?"
Emperor Mingyan said: "These calligraphy and paintings are truly precious!"
"I know!" Yan Shiyue's fan said seriously: "Using precious things is the greatest respect for them!"
Emperor Mingyan glared at her again before saying, "What do you want to do?"
Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "Okay, actually you don't have to do it. I originally wanted to use these to organize a traveling calligraphy and painting exhibition, and let great scholars from all over the country follow suit and create calligraphy and paintings, and then select the best ones to exhibit together. How should I put it, promote the main theme, and cultivate the scholars' love for their country! But now that we have the tumbler stage car, if we don't do this, it won't have a big impact on Sixao." She looked at him with a smile.
Emperor Ming Yan fell silent immediately.
She was right. This matter did not have much impact on Si Mao, but it had a great influence on Dayan like a spring breeze and rain.
Of course, Si Mao was also a beneficiary, but if Si Mao prospered and the national treasury was full, wasn’t it all for Dayan in the end?
Emperor Ming Yan sighed and quickly made a decision: "Call the prince over."
