The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 245: The birth of the food column

Views:

Because the dissemination of information in ancient times took a certain amount of time, after about five or six days, people began to come looking for Zheng Ping, and the number of people gradually increased. Zheng Ping was acquainted with the old every day.

Many children were not very old when they parted, and when they saw the news directly or indirectly, they felt new and excited in their hearts. Although we haven't seen each other for many years and don't remember much of what happened back then, but after we met, everyone would still cry.

Fortunately, Yun Yanhui organized a party and invited all the people who were currently looking for it to a restaurant.

The scene after the meeting was really touching. When it came to the past, everyone burst into tears.

Li Zeyun followed him to record and actually cried a few times.

Yun Yanhui felt numb when she saw Li Zeyun crying. She took out the handkerchief from her arms and handed it to him to wipe her tears. No way, Li Zeyun's own has long been wiped and can't be used.

"Uuuu..." Li Zeyun wiped his tears and said, "Sir, when I go back these few days, my wife is wondering why my eyes are swollen."

Li Zeyun's wife didn't dare to ask at first, thinking that he was wronged at work, for fear that it would hurt his self-esteem.

"Haha, the people who read your report cry the same as you." Yun Yan smiled back.

Li Zeyun has published three reports on the matter in the past few days, and one is a follow-up report on the search for rice cakes.

The editor-in-chief didn't ask him to do it at first, but he was really touched that day. After returning, he wrote a report with sincerity and sincerity. After handing it over, the editor-in-chief immediately typeset and decides to use it.

The editor-in-chief felt that their "Tokyo Daily", as the first and only official media of the Song Dynasty, should not only stand on a high position to reflect social phenomena, but also focus on these small details, which also showed the folk customs of the Song Dynasty.

As a result, the publication of this report was indeed very popular, touched many people deeply, and made a lot of tears. Yun Yanhui learned of the reaction from Li Zeyun. She was a little surprised at first, but then she understood.

People in this era are limited by their standard of living and are more "sentimental" because their communication is different from that of modern people, and their parting is even more different from modern people.

Therefore, the kind of "missing" described in the article, everyone feels the same, and has had a similar experience, this theme is very grounded.

Coupled with the magical role played by the "Tokyo Daily", you can see that through a piece of news published in the newspaper, two people who have not met for decades, and even were just a relationship between customers and vendors in the past, have achieved one. A trivial but elusive wish... For them, it's a wonderful miracle.

Thin paper can speak to the world and carry the vision and happiness in people's hearts. It can be said that this is not only a touching little story, but also an extremely successful marketing, which fully reflects the "Tokyo Daily" "Influence, once again raised its status.

After seeing the report, many people became interested in the story. Some of them visited the old man Fan, and some even asked him how to make rice cakes that can be remembered for so long.

Immediately afterwards, the follow-up report on the search of Salesianzhuang also came out. The long-lost partners reunited after a long absence, which is even more attractive. Everyone who hadn't seen each other for so long was reunited because of an announcement.

- I heard that some people have already moved to other places. Although they don't read newspapers, there are people in the local area who are loyal readers. After seeing this, they mentioned this to others and let them know. Although this person could not come in person, he sent a letter to the address left by the notice.

People who were still on the sidelines went to the "Tokyo Daily" one after another, hoping to fund the publication of various notices.

They all have people and things they want to find. Some people are like Zheng Ping, they want to find friends they lost many years ago, some people are like Fu Yunfeng, they are obsessed with a certain food that is no longer there, and some people even log out clues , claiming to have lost a child many years ago with a certain birthmark somewhere on his body, what if the child could see it

Because of those reports, Li Zeyun became more and more famous. Many people also said that they liked the rice cake news written by him the most. His wife cried a lot after seeing the news, and then she realized why her husband came back with red eyes every day.

Li Zeyun wiped his tears and said, "Sir, our editor-in-chief said that we should consider opening a column to report on the more interesting follow-ups of people and objects."

"This is a good thing, did he ask you to be the main writer?" Yun Yan replied with a smile.

"You guessed it? Yes," Li Zeyun wanted to cry and laugh, "I'm afraid, you say, if I keep doing this in the future, will my eyes be better?"

"Then I'll give you another direction." Yun Yan replied solemnly.

Li Zeyun scratched his head, "What direction?"

Yun Yan replied: "After hearing that your news was published in the newspaper, many people went to look for Mr. Fan, some of whom were studying art, and some who wanted to try the rice cake at a high price. I also read the report, and I felt that in addition to the emotion in it In addition to the bonus, it's also because you described the rice cake well, and it's not bad..."

Li Zeyun faintly felt that he had touched something, "You mean..."

Yun Yanhui: "You might as well apply for a food column. Although this love column will be a big hit in a short period of time, in the end, food will last forever. Remember when I told you that day, food is the most moving thing? ?"

"..." Li Zeyun said numbly, "I thought you were joking."

Yun Yan replied dissatisfiedly: "How could I joke about eating!"

Li Zeyun said bitterly: "Sir, why do you have to do everything with food?"

Yun Yan strangled him back, "Why, you don't want to write?"

Li Zeyun said bitterly: "Sir, I still want to write a report that can be remembered and more influential..."

This is also understandable. Li Zeyun, at his age, has ideals, and he also shared his true thoughts with Yunyan. Although a lot of tears may be shed, no matter how you look at it, this love-seeking column has more connotation.

It is conceivable that there will be many followers of food, but Li Zeyun feels that he may be embarrassed to tell others that he is the reporter who wrote this...

Yun Yan let go and hummed, "It seems that you and I are not fellow travelers."

Li Zeyun complained: "Who is the same person as you... I only have one pair of legs, so I can't walk so many ways."

"... For the sake of your flattery, I won't say anything about you." Yun Yan rubbed her hands back, "But I still think it's a pity, you have great potential to write about food. Pity!"

The influence of the Tokyo Daily News is unquestionable, but there is still a lot of potential that has yet to be tapped. Yun Yanhui regretted that Li Zeyun refused to do something big with him, and wanted to do something again, so she thought about finding another writer.

Think about it, maybe most of the reporters of "Tokyo Daily" have the same idea as Li Zeyun, it is better to find someone else and play it as an interest, or let them see what is called eternal hot topic.

"What?! Are you Shuangyi? You've changed a lot!" Someone's exclamation caught Yun Yanhui's attention, he turned to look, but there was a little friend over there looking at Shuangyi in surprise.

Shuang Yi took Shen Kuo's arm and nodded reservedly.

The man: "Really... long time no see, I'm Ximei, do you remember? At that time, we both liked Saburo, and we always quarreled."

Shuangyi: "… "

Shen Kuo: "..."

Shuang Yi laughed, "Children like to play with older children. Do you have children? How old are you?" , Shuang Yi was afraid that the insurance would not be enough, and pushed Shen Kuo to Yun Yanhui again.

Shen Kuo reluctantly walked to Yun Yanhui's side and said dully, "Why didn't you tell me about this?"

Yun Yan smiled back and died, thinking how Shen Kuo was like Zhao Yunchu, "How old was Shuang Yi at that time? It's not that children like to play and play together, and Ximei's words are too exaggerated."

Children also have hobbies and are willing to play with popular children. This kind of liking is very pure, just like Zhao Youwu likes to play with little tigers.

Shen Kuoyu died, and what Yun Yan said back was that he was stingy when compared with children, but Ximei's words did sound uncomfortable.

Yunyan recalled that Shen Kuo's writing was also very good, and he had a taste for life, so he invited him to write a food review, making a lot of noise.

"...Although we can't open a column for us, but we can be a clear stream in the literature and art section. There, I will be in charge of planning, and you will write and eat together..."

Shen Kuo waved his hand, "No, I'm busy."

Yun Yan wanted to ask why he was busy, and he said, "I'm busy with the military supervisor, and I'll accompany Shuangyi when I'm done..." Shen Kuo whispered a little shyly, "Shuangyi's body has been recuperated."

Yun Yan knew what it meant when she heard this, she was about to have a baby.

Shen Kuo said this, Yun Yanhui was embarrassed to bring people in, he was still waiting to be an uncle, so he put on Shen Kuo's shoulder and said, "Since this is the case, then you should work hard and strive to be a father next year. Medicine heirloom, I don't worry about you!"

Shen Kuo nodded with a smile, suddenly remembered something, and asked cautiously: "Zhufeng, you are not too young..."

Yun Yanhui has obtained Renzong's permission, and he is even less anxious, "First establish a career and then start a family."

This reason seems very sufficient for a workaholic, but Shen Kuo always felt that something was wrong. Because he only came to Beijing two years ago, it was a bit strange to see Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu.

However, how could Shen Kuo say this kind of speculation? He didn't dare to mention it on Shuangyi's side.

At this moment, Shen Kuo was also inconvenienced, but his doubts became heavier and heavier.

Yun Yanhui knew that Shen Kuo and Shuang Yi were preparing for pregnancy. The more she thought about it, the happier she became. She felt that holding a baby next year should not be a problem, so she decided to prepare some maternity supplies and baby supplies in advance.

After the party on this side was over, it was already in the afternoon, everyone vented their emotions, made an appointment to meet in the future, and said goodbye to each other.

Li Zeyun went back to write the manuscript, Shuangyi couple and Zheng Ping couple went home, Yun Yan went back to Kaifeng Mansion.

Half a year is almost up, but Yun Yanhui at the Salesian Bureau didn't want to leave for a while, and couldn't leave, so he decided to continue for two months and come back after finishing his work.

Therefore, Yun Yan had to go to Kaifeng Mansion to go through the formalities. Anyway, living close to home was just a matter of convenience.

After Yun Yan returned to the mansion to complete the formalities, he went to Zhao Yunchu's study. Zhao Yunchu was looking at the dossier. When he saw Yun Yan coming back, he smiled and said, "How is the party today?"

"Crying all over the place." Yun Yan replied relaxedly, "But they all cried with laughter."

The two exchanged information about what happened today, and Yun Yan said that Li Zeyun had gone after his ideals, and refused to partner with him to do big things. Shen Kuo and Shuang Yi wanted to prepare for pregnancy, but they refused.

Zhao Yunchu is busy with government affairs every day, and his writing is too dry for describing food, otherwise he would have called for his life. Now he comforts Yunyan back: "I will definitely find someone, what a good idea!"

Zhao Yunchu replayed Yunyan a thousand times in his heart, how wonderful it is to enjoy delicious food with three or five friends, and then write essays and submit them to the newspaper, so that all the old eaters in the city will know how fun it is to live!

It's boring to do this alone, at least that's what Yun Yanhui likes. Of course it won't be bad if you taste it alone, but it's even more interesting if you have friends with like-minded interests.

Yun Yan replied: "Well, I also think that the big deal is that I will wait a few more years before Fatty Su has grown up..."

Zhao Yunchu heard his vague second half sentence and asked curiously, "What fat man?"

"Nothing." At this time, Yun Yanhui suddenly heard a familiar voice from outside.

"Pharaoh, the fish soup in the morning is short of ginger, I only drank half a bowl, it's too fishy!" Bai Yutang's voice came from a height.

Lao Wang is the cook in the cafeteria. He explained: "Five masters! Today's ginger is not enough, so I put a little less, really just a little, you can taste it?"

Yun Yanhui pushed the window open, and saw Bai Yutang sitting on the roof, emphasizing solemnly with the chef passing by: "How many times have I said that you must be careful and careful, and there is no ginger, why didn't you prepare it earlier?"

Yun Yan sweated back, "Did he start to manage the kitchen while I was away?"

He said, but suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Zhao Yunchu.

Zhao Yunchu hesitated: "Is this okay? Bai Yutang's mouth... is very poisonous."

Yunyan replied: "High standard."

Zhao Yunchu asked again, "Then can he write?"

Yun Yan replied: "Anyway, he has written poetry, so there is culture."

Zhao Yunchu: "...Then, can he agree?"

Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu looked at each other for a while, then turned around and shouted, "Five Master Bai!!"
