"Of course, if the emperor doesn't believe it, you can give it a try. I think there must be a craftsman who can carve the plates in the workplace. The method is to use clay to make blanks with the same specifications, engrave the reverse single characters at one end, and the height of the protrusion of the characters is roughly the same as the thickness of the edge of the copper coin. It is burned with fire to become a single clay movable type. Make dozens of commonly used characters for repetition in the same version." Zhang Nan found out the method of movable type printing found from the system and read it.

"Liu Bing, have you remembered it? If you remember it, hurry to go to the Ministry of Works. I will know tonight whether this method can be used, and I will not delay it for a moment. Do you understand?" Li Er ordered. After Li Er's instructions, Liu Bing went to run errands. After Zhang Nan looked at it, he sighed that feudal society was a society where people cannibalize people. Li Er said that if he wanted to see this thing at night, he would see it at night. If he couldn't see it, Zhang Nan guessed that the carving craftsmen of the Ministry of Works would suffer.

"Qingquan, what do you think if I asked you to be responsible for this newspaper?" Li Er asked.

"Ah, the emperor might as well change someone. Now I am still the director of the Labor Reform Bureau. If I come to another newspaper president, I am afraid I will be too busy." In fact, Zhang Nan didn't really want to be the president of this newspaper. If he becomes the president of the newspaper, there will be more involvement. Not only should Li Er be satisfied, but he should not make the aristocratic family disgusted too much, but he also has to take into account the emotions of the people. Then he must sing high-profile every day and exaggerate everything.

"Oh, there is nothing wrong with the Labor Reform Bureau now. You don't even have any personal subordinates. What are you busy with?" Li Er asked with a smile. The implication is that you must do this newspaper for me.

"This... the emperor is not as good as this. Now there is no one in my hands that needs labor reform. But by the beginning of the next spring, my business will be opened. Why not, I will manage this newspaper for the time being and then help the emperor to train a talent who can fully perform this job? In this way, after the Turks are captured, I will continue to carry them labor reform. This newspaper will not be unable to be able to handle it because of my departure. What does the emperor think?" Zhang Nan thought for a while and said.

"Oh, you also need to cultivate talents. Wouldn't it be better for me to go directly to the Hanlin Academy?" Li Er asked strangely. According to Li Er's idea, Zhang Nan should be the main person in charge, and the rest of the work should be left to the Hanlin Academy to handle.

When Zhang Nan heard the Hanlin Academy, a bunch of old masters appeared in his mind. Then Zhang Nan shook his head and said, "If the emperor really wants this newspaper to play its due role instead of becoming something that only praises merits, then let me teach you personally." Zhang Nan said.

Li Er thought about it and it was indeed the case. After all, the articles reported by this newspaper before it was published every day must be made by himself. It is not ruled out that his subordinates only handed them articles that praise merit and suppressed those articles with opposition voices.

"Then have you ever thought about where to come from the source of this article?" Li Er continued to ask.

"I think that this page can be changed, but I don't have to use this page of my page. I can add a few more, such as commerce and agriculture, and this article is even simpler. It is for the whole Chang'an or even the entire Tang Dynasty. As long as I am a well-educated person, I can submit articles to the "Da Tang Daily". As for this direction, I ask the emperor to decide." Zhang Nan said.

Zhang Nan said this, because he was afraid of some unsightly scholars. If he felt that everyone was drunk, I was awake and wrote an article that made Li Er very upset. This would be a matter of losing his head.

"Oh, Qingquan, are you afraid that I will cut down what I have said about the Tang Dynasty and the bad voices? Haha, Qingquan is too worried." Li Er laughed and said, "Since that's the case, I will give this newspaper a right to not pursue the words. This is OK."

"Then I will thank the emperor for the person who contributed to the newspaper." Zhang Nan bowed.

"When will the Qingquan newspaper be released?" Li Er asked.

"As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. When the emperor prints out the movable type made of clay, and then when the minister recruits a group of people who are indeed talented, then the work can be started." Zhang Nan thought for a while, and then Zhang Nan said again: "Your Majesty, this newspaper is a court item after all, so I think the emperor can give the newspaper a few false positions, so that when the minister recruits people, I can attract more people. I wonder what the emperor thinks?" Zhang Nan said.

When Li Er heard this, he said, "This is easy to deal with. I will give you a newspaper with a rank of the ninth rank. How about two official positions under the ninth rank?"

Zhang Nan probably estimated that the workload of the newspaper should not be very large. Three people should be enough for the supervisor. Anyway, they just do the typography work, select articles by the way, and then attract sponsorship for the newspaper. However, the "Dang Tang Daily" should not need to attract sponsorship. As long as the money is managed, it should be enough. Besides, even if the people recruited next time have no official positions, Zhang Nan believes that many people are still flocking to it. After all, this is done by the royal family, so who doesn't want to join.

"Since that's the case, there's no problem with me. The emperor gives me five days, and I will definitely make this newspaper for the emperor." Zhang Nan said.

"Well, okay, after the list of people you choose comes out, just show it to me." Li Er arrived. Although Li Er could completely designate the candidates for this newspaper, Li Er did not want to do this. People like Zhang Nan should delegate power appropriately, and Li Er felt that it was safest.

"Is there anything else that the emperor has to do? If there is nothing wrong, I will take the leave first. I also ask the emperor to post a list of emperors in Chang'an City. I can start preparing for this recruitment tomorrow." Zhang Nan bowed.

Li Er thought about it and found nothing was wrong, so he waved his hand and signaled that Zhang Nan could leave.

Zhang Nan left, and as soon as Zhang Nan left Empress Changsun, he spoke: "Emperor, this newspaper is indeed a good way. It not only allows the people to hear the emperor's voice, but also allows the emperor to hear the people's voice. My Tang Dynasty has always had many people who speak out, but it was just that he could not let the emperor know before. Now with newspapers, the emperor can hear the voices of the people."

Li Er nodded and said, "What Guanyin Bi said is so yes. I am really looking forward to this "Da Tang Daily" more and more."

As soon as Zhang Nan left the palace, he saw Cui Shao and Wang Mozhi waiting for him. Zhang Nan quickly stepped forward to say hello.

"No need to be too polite Qingquan. Is the emperor asking about this blank paper?" Cui Shao said straight to the point.

When Zhang Nan heard this, he remembered that during the conversation with Li Er just now, Li Er did not seem to ask how he solved the problem of this newspaper, so he said truthfully: "The Emperor did not ask at all."

When Cui Shao and Wang Mozhi heard this, they knew it in their hearts. It seemed that the aristocratic family and the royal family had reached a consensus.
