Chapter 182 Contents of the Newspaper
The language used in this newspaper is basically in vernacular, which is easy to understand and straightforward.
And the content is a bit touching.
Especially for Xiang Wenxuan and Xiang Yixin.
Newspapers are divided into eight boards.
The first edition is the song "Loyalty for the Country".
The following are some introductions to the history and geography of this country.
The second edition introduces the life of Xiang Qinghan, the queen of Great Chu, and the basic situation of Yiyueru's business, including all members and families.
The third edition introduces the collection and release of grain this time. The writing is very well-written. Let’s talk about the title first. The princess Xiang Yixin, the queen of the Great Chu who cares for the people of Jiangning, takes action according to her instructions.
The content is roughly the same as that when the Empress of the Great Chu, Xiang Qinghan, was in a very sad mood when he learned that the price of grain of the people of Jiangning Prefecture was suppressed by bad merchants, he asked the prince Xiang Wenxuan, who was in Jiangning Prefecture, and Xiang Yixin, the princess Xiang Yixin, who was in Jiangning Prefecture, to find a way. After that, Xiang Yixin, who was instructed by the Empress and his father, thought of the Yiyueru Trading Company, which he led, he then founded with Lin Yiru, executive director of the trading company, Cao Yan, head of the Action Department, Lin Yueru, secretary-general of the board of directors, Lin Ruyi, secretary-general of the board of directors, Luo Deming, Xia Haibo and others, held a meeting to discuss and decide to collect grain for protection prices, open the purchase, and then the price of bad grain merchants increased. The crowd decided to stabilize the price of grain and decided to release grain for 10 days for 10 days.
When Xiang Wenxuan and Xiang Yixin saw this, they felt a little hot in their faces!
The fourth edition is about the recent construction of canals. It has not rained for a long time recently. It is inconvenient to water the fields of people far away from the water source. Cao Yan and other businesses planned the land and asked someone to build a canal along the fertile fields outside the city to facilitate everyone to get water. This matter can be added to the good human value. How could Cao Yan let it go? However, the format of the article is also in the above form. First talk about the queen, then Xiang Yixin, and then talk about his family. Then, he talked about the list of other people who participated in the contribution to the canal route.
The fifth edition is, how to defeat Jiulongzhai and prepare to loot Jiangning Mansion on the Qixi Festival, or the previous routine. The queen is concerned, Xiang Yixin's instructions, and the shareholders of Yiyueru Trading Company work together.
The sixth edition begins with introducing the cultivation methods of various crops and how to increase yields.
The seventh edition wrote a story, "Legend of Mirror Flower". After all, this story is also a queen, and there are female officials, so their political views are relatively correct.
The last edition reads some recruitment and employment situations in cities, notices of Cao Yan's own recruitment, various advertisements for various products he produced, and prices of items in surrounding cities.
"Brother Cao, this is a bit shameful!..." Xiang Yixin's face was still a little thin [58 Novels ] Ah, seeing that this was originally done by Cao Yan, she pushed it all on her and gave her a big advantage, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
On the other hand, Zhong Xinyi also blushed because she was also one of the shareholders. The good things in the newspaper declined and all her names were included. She looked at Cao Yan and felt embarrassed, but when Xiang Yixin spoke, she chose to remain silent.
Xiang Wenxuan also didn't say anything. He looked at Cao Yan and wanted to see how Cao Yan answered Xiang Yixin's words. From these articles, he could foresee how much help it would be to Xiang Yixin's reputation if these news spread.
Cao Yan stopped Xiang Yixin's words, "Princess, this is the business we established together. You are the largest shareholder in it, so how could you feel ashamed of it?"
Cao Yan did not discuss with her the time relationship between the establishment of the business, such as grain collection, and siege.
Xiang Yixin shook her head with a wry smile. She knew what Cao Yan meant, so she could only nod and said, "thank you brother Cao."
"You are welcome to be polite, Princess."
Xiang Wenxuan was very satisfied with the result of the two respecting each other. In recent years, it was a critical year. Only his daughter can perform well enough to overwhelm other competitors and finally get into that position. Anyone who can help his daughter is worthy of his efforts to win over, especially Cao Yan and his husband, who are both terrifying and desperate. At any cost, it is possible to consider it. Xiang Wenxuan smiled and interrupted the politeness between the two and asked, "Nephew, by the way, this newspaper... what is the newspaper ready for?" He also wanted to know how this so-called newspaper is to operate! It can make it emit the greatest value.
"Then I'll talk about it, you see if there is anything worth replenishing." Cao Yan pursed his lips, then picked up the teacup and took another sip of water.
"Well, you tell me in detail." Xiang Wenxuan took the initiative to pick up the teapot and fill Cao Yan with water.
"First of all, it's the price of this thing. I decided to price it for five cents per serving."
"Hiss!" As soon as Cao Yan finished speaking, breathing sounds came from around him. Everyone looked at the huge newspaper. If it were bound into a book, it would be possible to bind a book of 500 words in just ten, right? It was simply selling it as paper.
"This is too cheap, right?" Xiao Yudian couldn't help but say it.
Cao Yan glanced at Xiaoyudou and smiled and said, "Actually, I think it's too expensive. If I weren't afraid of some people making trouble, I would have planned to sell it for a penny." Cao Yan was worried that someone would really take it as waste paper and collect it, so his efforts would be wasted. After all, there were a lot of people he offended recently, so beware of it is always right!
When everyone heard this, they also understood that those people would make trouble. After all, Zhong Xinyi’s recent experience is a good example. How could Xiang Yixin not know?
Xiang Yixin was a little angry and gritted her teeth and said angrily: "They dare!" But after venting this sentence, she let out a few heavy sighs: "Forget it, I'm talking about those people being blocked, Brother Cao, please continue to say it."
Cao Yan smiled and continued, "And so, I decided to post the previous issue every seven days or half a month. Of course, the specific time depends on Miss Zhong."
"Me?" Zhong Xinyi pointed at her nose and said in confusion.
"Well, didn't I tell you just now, asking you to help manage your business? Besides, you are still from our business company." Cao Yan said as if it were right.
"But, I can't!" Zhong Xinyi was a little lacking in confidence.
"I can't! Let me tell you the truth, I don't know how much hair I lost recently for this newspaper." Cao Yan touched his forehead with a little sigh. In order to not become bald in the future, he could only blame him. Of course, although he said that, he was still ready to give Zhong Xinyi some help. Cao Yan continued: "However, you can use a newspaper as a model. It is easier than I started to do it. And I have also come up with a lot of ideas recently, such as you can join the scientific examination questions in recent years, the articles of people on the list, the poetry conferences, folk stories, etc., and let others submit articles. You don't have to worry about others not coming. We give bonuses. As long as we are on the list, the lowest is consistent, and we can still... "Cao Yan of Balabala said the more he felt, and finally said, "I feel that there is no problem with one copy a day."
The other people who heard Cao Yan talk almost knelt down and listened to him talking nonstop. It was not until Cao Yan finished speaking that they closed their surprised mouths. They were all surprised by Cao Yan's thoughts.
"Brother Cao, what you said is very good, but if you need to print, it is probably not easy to carved plates." Zhong Xinyi asked the most critical question here.
"Haha! Don't be careful about this. I will take you to see the power of technology tomorrow." Cao Yan has assembled all the hydraulic printing equipment, and the movable type has been made in one piece with tungsten steel produced by his own armor. Cao Yan probably won't have any problems with using it for hundreds of years. Now he finds that his own armor is becoming more and more practical.
"Oh, if that's the case, we'll also see it tomorrow." Xiang Wenxuan said with a smile. He didn't say what the power of technology Cao Yan was talking about, but he could understand what Cao Yan meant, that is, that thing must be extraordinary.
"Okay, and, I mean, at each city gate of Jiangning Mansion, there is the location of my hotel. I plan to arrange a few more storytellers to eat and talk about it a few times every day. You also know that after all, there are still many people who are not literate now." The hotels run by Cao Yan now have locations near each city gate, and when it comes to dinner, the traffic here is the most common.
Of course, everyone present nodded in agreement with Cao Yan's proposals.
They didn't even ask Cao Yan whether this thing made money or lost money. However, according to their current understanding of newspapers, they absolutely believed that the so-called newspaper agency lost 100% of money, and it was the kind that lost money in blood.
This paper should be able to barely guarantee the capital, but the ink and artificial things behind it, without thinking about it, would be a loss of money if you close your eyes.
Moreover, the requests for manuscripts that Cao Yan mentioned later were simply a loss of money.
But they all chose to ignore this matter.
They really don’t lack money!!
The person in front of you is really grabbing money when doing business!
