The bustling and bustling are all for profit.

When the other merchants saw that Qinzhuang's silk and satin shop was selling well with national flag and clothing, they naturally followed suit.

Various stores have successively launched Sun and Moon jewelry, Sun and Moon porcelain, Sun and Moon screens, Sun and Moon folding fans, etc.

Because this is not only about fashion, but also about the country and nation, and everyone takes pride in it.

This selling point is irresistible to everyone.

In an instant, the sun and moon flags were everywhere, which even caused the prices of related dyes to rise a lot.

And just inadvertently, the concept of the country has gradually penetrated into everyone's heart.

This made Wang Xijue and the others sigh that Guo Dan is really a business genius.

The problem of national flag promotion is perfectly solved with just four children.

Of course, no one dares to touch the national emblem. After all, it is painted with a golden dragon. Although various restrictions have been lifted, people can wear bright yellow clothes and sit on a carriage with ten horses. As long as you have money, the road is wide enough to accommodate it. After all, a fat man only cares about money. He never cared about this superficial skill.

But this dragon still cannot be touched.

Even if the fat man is willing, the ministers will not agree. This is too exaggerated.

The aftermath of the triumphal ceremony continues to ferment.

The soldiers received unprecedented glory and gained fame and fortune. They not only received praise from the emperor, but also received favor from the business. Wujiu signed a contract with them, not only interviewed them, but also helped them publish memoirs.

Of course, the fat man was happy to see all this. After all, he completely deprived the generals of his power this time. Now he can no longer support his family. He must give some compensation in other aspects.

Money and glory will not pose any threat to him.

Of course, the soldiers enjoy all this very much, because they will never be discriminated against any more and will have various generous treatments.

Some literati are asking about how to enter the military academy.

But at present, the military academy is not open to ordinary people, and must be young generals who have made military achievements.

If there are too many, it will not be digested for the time being.

The civil servants felt that they were neglected and the military officers snatched away all the glory, which was not possible.

Therefore, with the promotion of the Hanlin Academy, the Hanlin Academy took the lead in launching the "Daming Literature Award".

This is said to be literature, but the scope is extremely limited, mainly articles, and the content of the article must be about the way of governing the world.

After all, it was an award issued by the imperial department, and of course it was related to the rule of the world.

Selected once a year.

Only one person a year.

It can be seen that these senior officials are not stupid either. If they set too many awards, they will not be so precious. Only one person a year is the same as thirsty marketing.

The bonus is 5,000 taels.

This bonus is of course a drop in the bucket for Guo Dan and others, but people outside of them are very high. If you don’t pursue a luxurious life, it will be enough for the family to be free for the rest of their lives.

You should know that the monthly pocket money of the first son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty is only three taels of taels of pocket money.

At the same time, the bounty of the military generals was much higher. Fang Fengshi, the supreme commander who went to the expedition, received a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, but the number of soldiers was not large, so the bounty reached 2 million taels.

Shilin suddenly became very proud.

The Hanlin Academy originally represents the highest palace of literature. The award of this Hanlin Academy is naturally the supreme glory of the literati.

The civil and military style began a new round of struggle.

The weather is good today, the sun is bright, and the last sunshine shines in the imperial city in late autumn.

The officials also came out one after another and stood in the open space and talked.

"Sir Wei, congratulations, congratulations."

Zou Yongde bowed to Wei Xinghai and smiled: "Now everyone outside talks about the 'Da Ming Literature Award'."

Wei Xinghai bowed and replied, "I dare not, I dare not, thanks to everyone's support!"

"It seemed to be called the 'Hanlin Academy Award' before, but now it has been changed to the 'Da Ming Literature Award'?"

"Aren't we guarding that Guo Dan to take advantage of this name?"

"That's right, if he won the 'Da Ming Literature Award', then when he heard this name, he would think that his Literature Award was the highest award for our literati."

"By the way! Guo Dan seems to have no movement recently. He won't make any more ideas."

"That kid has a lot of ideas. We can't be careless, we have to be a little careful."

"No need to worry, the level of this literary award depends on the candidates, but who is more authoritative today than the Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy?"

......\n

Xu Guo, who was standing not far away, glanced at them and then said to Shen Shixing. Wang Xijue said: "Now that the civil and military struggle is so powerful, our cabinet should avoid this limelight!"

Shen Shixing nodded and said, "Don't rush to promulgate the policies regarding Sichuan and Luzon. Consider it more and see if there are any omissions. Let's promulgate it next year. I think this matter will not be over in a short time."

Wang Xijue nodded.

The cabinet has been leading the way in the first half of the year and has been in the limelight, but it has been a little weak recently.

Shen Shixing and others are not people who like to show off, but this is very critical to the cabinet, because it can help the cabinet establish authority. Therefore, he believes that he must avoid this limelight and launch a new wave of policies after they have finished their battle.

This new policy is also very important. In the inland aspect, it is mainly to encourage technological development, develop Sichuan, and move high-end technologies to Sichuan, and at the same time promulgate household registrations in Luzon, Penghu, Java and other places.

And open the corresponding ports for the people to freely communicate.

This will also mark the Ming Dynasty's transition from the inland to the ocean.

The country is closed to the public forever.

.....\n

Yinuoyaxing.

"When are you going to take action?"

Aunt Xu put down the Shenghua News Agency, founded by Nanjing Academy, and looked up and asked Guo Dan. She saw that the newspaper published a detailed introduction to the "Da Ming Literature Award".

Shenghuabao will cooperate with the Hanlin Academy to provide a special page to allow literati to publish articles on the world-governing.

In fact, it can also be said to be a selection.

If you can't even enter this page, don't think too much.

Guo Tan smiled and said, "It was them who took the initiative to take me as an opponent. I have never taken them seriously. I have said before that everyone has a different pattern and I can take action at any time, but I still need to wait."

Aunt Xu asked, "What are you waiting for?"

Guo Dan said, "Wait..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a small notice at the door, and the inner minister Zhang Cheng arrived.

Guo Tan smiled and said, "Here you come."

What Aunt Xu unexpectedly was that what Zhang Cheng brought was a deal, a deal that could change the Ming Dynasty.

That is, the emperor will create a "Discovery News" in the name of the royal family and also establish the Exploration Award, with a prize of up to 10,000 taels.

The news immediately shocked the government and the public.

Because I have attended the meeting on Triumph on the day, everyone knows what's going on.

explore?

Is it more obvious?

All fools know!

The emperor clearly supports Guo Dan's theory of earth.

This also surprised them. They had previously thought that the emperor could not support Guo Dan because it would shake the emperor's ruling foundation. After that day, few people talked about this matter.

Moreover, if your emperor doesn’t give any Confucian awards, he just wants to engage in other studies, it is clearly to weaken the dominance of Confucianism.

This is really different from the nature of Guo Dan’s founding of Yinuo Academy. Guo Dan is a businessman after all. It is natural for him to promote the development of knowledge that is conducive to industry and commerce. Literature doesn’t have much to say, and Guo Dan is still holding Confucianism everywhere.

He did not deviate from the mainstream idea, but was just an extension.

But it is very terrible for your emperor to engage in other studies, because no matter what the emperor does, it will affect all aspects.

The ministers immediately asked to see Wanli.

Wuying Palace.

"Your Majesty, don't listen to the slander of a traitor. Exploring the reward is absolutely impossible!" Zhang Heming said bitterly.

Wanli glanced at him and said without hesitation: "What can I do? I am just very interested in this knowledge and want to know more about the world. I drink two more drinks on weekdays, and you all have to say anything. Now I drink less and run a newspaper about science. You are not sure. Can't I have an interest or hobby?"

We would rather you drink a few more drinks.

Zhang Heming immediately said: "Your Majesty, Guo Dan's Earth's statement is really a ruthless statement, because it will endanger Your Majesty's rule and will put our Ming Dynasty in a place of no return."

Wanli said, "A mere earth said, it will endanger my rule and the rise and fall of my Ming Dynasty. Is my Ming Dynasty so fragile in your hearts?"

Shen Shixing stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this matter can be big or small, please think twice."
