Datang: My Peerless Talent Has Been Exposed

And if you already know Zhang's fine wine, will you brag to others, I've had this wine before, it's really delicious, but don't touch it if you drink normally?

And all of this is because Zhang's fine wine itself is really reliable, and it can be sold like crazy in the whole Chang'an City, and the supply has been in short supply.

But on the other hand, it was the main reason why Wei Zheng felt cold all over his body, because he was worried that if one day someone offered a price that Mr. Xiao Zhang or His Majesty could not refuse and asked to brag about something like today, would he So do.

At the same time, what worries him even more is what if someone uses the newspaper channel to smear or turn black and white?

Not to mention His Majesty, if His Majesty really wants him to write an article to smear someone, he can still refuse, but if His Majesty asks him to write it and notify him to put it in a newspaper, he really can't refuse.

Even His Majesty can skip him and go directly to Mr. Zhang, after all, the printing is there, and only Mr. Zhang knows what the newspaper will look like.

If this is the case, what about Wei Zheng?

Now that this newspaper is published, Wei Zheng's reputation will go up to heaven, even surpassing the name of his admonishing officials. If this was a good thing before, after thinking about these things now, Wei Zheng suddenly felt that It seems to be a pit.

After all, the reputation of this newspaper has now been tied to Wei Zheng's reputation. If there are any false news in the newspaper, or if there are any mistakes or omissions, he will probably be sprayed to death.

Then not only did he lose his former reputation, but he probably won't have a good life in the future.

Wei Zheng, who wanted to understand all this, couldn't help but turned around, looked at Li Shimin and said,

"Your Majesty, why don't you choose someone else to be the editor-in-chief? I'm afraid it's hard for me to take on this important task!"

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth were slightly raised, and he looked at Wei Zheng playfully. His eyes made Wei Zheng, an old man in the court hall, feel a little embarrassed, so Li Shimin said leisurely,

"Wei Qing, I chose you as the editor-in-chief after much deliberation. You've just published the first issue, and you've dismissed me. How can I be ashamed of this?"

"Besides, Wei Qing, sometimes it's not a good thing to think too much. Could it be that the errands I give out are to be done if you want to do them?"

A very blunt but justifiable sentence made Wei Zheng speechless.

That's right, if you rush to do the easy things and push the bad things to others, how can there be such a good thing.

Wei Zheng knew, but after this newspaper was published today, there must be countless people staring at the seat under his buttocks with red eyes.

As long as he doesn't do it, some people will rush to come, and in the eyes of those people, writing and posting a few articles according to His Majesty's wishes is absolutely nothing.

Not to mention other places, as long as he returns to the newly established newspaper now, there will probably be a bunch of people complimenting him, while secretly waiting for him to make a mistake and take his place.

Therefore, even though he knew that this position was not easy to do, and even he was thinking of being an advising doctor honestly just now, but when he thought of giving such a good position to someone else, he suddenly couldn't bear it.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng's tangled look, and smiled triumphantly, Wei Qing, let you spray me, retribution is coming.

Chapter 343 The Fear of the Family

It has to be said that stupid people may be able to do all kinds of tricks, but smart people are equally smart.

It is impossible that the leaders of the aristocratic families can't see things that can be seen by even two businessmen. Now in a big house in Fangshi far from the restaurant where Li Shimin and others eat, the head of Fan Yang Lu's family is with several The elders looked at today's newspaper together and took a breath.

They felt that their teeth were hurting at the moment, the patriarch of the Fanyang Lu family threw the newspaper on the table next to him, and said sharply,

"With this ghost thing, I'm afraid I will have to rely on Li Er to give me the chance to become famous in the future! If things go on like this, who will remember the five surnames and seven Wangs?"

The other elders also sighed unceasingly. Although they didn't lose their composure like the patriarch, they put the newspaper aside and stared at them in a daze.

It's really not that they don't try hard to pretend to be salty fish, but that even though these people are full of clever tricks, they can see the twists and turns inside at a glance, but they can't do anything about this new matter.

What can they do now?

Get yourself a newspaper?

Not to mention anything else, without the background of the imperial court and the royal family, and without the support of post stations extending in all directions, how could they sell their newspapers to all parts of the country?

That's right, the newspapers of Datang News are so ruthless. Foreign newspapers go directly to post stations, and post stations in every city are selling points. Li Shimin directly treats the business of selling newspapers as a post station business.

Anyway, he charges ten cents a piece, he doesn't care how much he sells, and the cost is directly deducted from the appropriation of the post station.

As for the people in the station system, they were originally a small place where they could not make much money, but now that they have newspapers, it is completely different.

Just because they only sell ten yuan in Chang'an City doesn't mean they only sell ten yuan, the most ruthless ones have already sold for ten yuan.

What is this, this is a hundredfold profit!

To be honest, if it wasn't for the imperial court's refusal, the guys at the station would have planned to sell newspapers, because they were so easy to sell.

It's just lying down and making money, okay? As long as you know the news, who wouldn't want to see the inscription written by the Holy One?Who doesn't want to know some important events in court?

But besides the imperial court and the royal family, who would dare to use such a channel?

Even if officials can occasionally use the post station to deliver some things to their hometown for selfish purposes, once or twice is okay, but if there are too many, it will not work.

Therefore, the channel of the post station is inherently dedicated to the court and the royal family, and other people should not think about it.

In addition, without the emperor's endorsement, even if you have five surnames and seven Wangs, perhaps scholars will be a little interested in this thing, but ordinary people, with their deep awe of the imperial court and imperial power, make them believe in the imperial court's stuff even more.

Of course, if it was just these two points, the gang of Fan Yang and Lu's family would not be so angry, the most speechless thing is.

It is impossible for them to buy newspapers at the price sold by the court.

You must know that the current selling price of the imperial court is only ten yuan a piece, and there are two big sheets of paper, which are full of words!

If they follow their own old method, although they don't know the exact price, they probably know it. According to preliminary estimates, assuming the same [-] copies as the imperial court, they will need about [-] guan.

That's right, including engraving and other expenses, the cost of producing those [-] copies of the newspaper is not less than [-], so what the hell?

Selling at the cost price is dozens of times more expensive than the imperial court. Your name is not as famous as others and it is dozens of times more expensive than others. Who will buy it for you?

But if the price was the same as that of the imperial court, and the family subsidized the money to sell it, it would not be long before Fan Yang and Lu's family would become the first family to go bankrupt in Datang.
