Guo Dezhi has been very anxious these days!

Every day when he gets up, he has to arrange for Guo Yunhe to go out to inquire, whether there is a new version of "Datang Daily" coming out today.

Although he already knew that the "Datang Daily" was published every three days, he still couldn't help but hope that an accident would happen.

"Dream of Red Mansions" on the serial page, although he has only seen two chapters, he has already vaguely seen the shadow of a masterpiece.

Of course, because the content was relatively boring at the beginning, there were a lot of background things that needed to be explained first, so this "Dream of Red Mansions" did not arouse heated discussions like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "The Legend of the White Snake" at the beginning.

But who is Guo Dezhi?

Others are countless women, but he has read countless books, and he can see the good of this book.

In the future, it will be a proper gold medal editor.

Storytelling, a waste of talent.

"Master, the third edition of Datang Daily is here."

Just after Guo Dezhi finished breakfast anxiously, Guo Yunhe finally brought good news.

"Quick, show me to the teacher."

Guo Dezhi snatched the newspaper and looked directly at the serial page.

"Mrs. Jia died in Yangzhou City", seeing this title, Guo Dezhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, today's newspaper also has Dream of Red Mansions.

Limited by space, Li Kuan's version of "Dream of Red Mansions", the chapters are planned according to the two hundred and forty returns.

The readers who chase books in Chang'an City are probably going to be depressed.

Because at the current pace, the book will not be serialized until next year.

But fortunately, this game of serialization, everyone is seeing it for the first time, but I don't think about it so much, I just feel that every time I watch it, and then at the end of the time, when I see the "predict what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition", I can't help but feel a resentment in my heart.

"Master, are you still going to Wuheju's storytelling today?"

Guo Yunhe saw that his master was staring at the article in the newspaper without turning his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a tangled way.

In fact, the total size of this newspaper is that the content of a chapter, even if you read it word by word, it does not take a quarter of an hour to read it.

However, Guo Dezhi's reading is different from others, he is reading while thinking about how to change it into the content of the story.

Therefore, when he reads a chapter, it often takes many times as long as an ordinary person.

Even all morning he was there watching over and over again.

Guo Yunhe also saw this scene last time, so he asked this question.

After all, storytelling in Wuheju has a fixed time period arranged every day, but it's not like you don't talk about it.

Pan Wang can agree, and the guests will not agree.

Last time, Guo Dezhi asked Guo Yunhe to rush over to save the emergency.

Today, Guo Yunhe hopes that his master can let him go to the rescue again.

In this kind of urgency, he is willing to save it a few more times.

"You go over and deal with it first, if I finish reading it, I'll come over, and if I don't come, you will bear it."

Guo Dezhi is also from the past, and he can understand Guo Yunhe's psychology very well, but he doesn't mind much.

He has no children, Guo Yunhe's parents died, but Guo Dezhi really cultivated him as his successor.

Although the storyteller is not a status existence, as long as he speaks well, his life is much better than that of ordinary people.

At least you don't have to be exposed to the wind and sun, which can make many people envious.

"Okay, Master, take your time, I'll go out first. Don't worry, I have already told the scholar who sells newspapers today that when a new newspaper comes out in the future, it will be delivered to our house as soon as possible, and it will definitely not delay your research on "Dream of Red Mansions", Master. ”

After Guo Yunhe finished speaking, he was afraid that Guo Dezhi would regret it, so he hurriedly went out.

……

In the palace of the king of Chu, Li Kuan was besieged by a group of Yingying Yanyan.

"Lord Wang, this ...... Is that the end of it? I can continue to transcribe, that's okay. ”

Wu Meiniang rubbed her wrist that was a little sore, and looked at Li Kuan expectantly.

Without exception, Li Kuan's "Dream of Red Mansions" this time was also dictated by himself, and Wu Meiniang came to copy it.

Whether it is the speed of writing or the good-looking nature of the words, Li Kuan is several streets behind Wu Meiniang.

"Yes, Lord Wang, although this "Datang Daily" only has one edition in three days, but our "Dream of Red Mansions" doesn't have to wait so much, you can do a good job of the book first, and then slowly put it in the newspaper to serialize."

Cheng Jingwen was also itched by Li Kuan's broken heart.

Every time it comes to a critical time, I come to listen to the next decomposition, who can stand it?

"Second brother, although I don't think this story seems to be as good as "The Legend of the White Snake", everyone says that it is good, you don't have to whet people's appetites like this."

The son was also agitating on the side.

With a few of them taking the lead, Qing'er and Kujou Xingxiang also spoke on the side.

Especially Gu Panpan, who muttered there for a long time without seeing anything outside.

This girl, she has been in Chang'an for so long, and she hasn't mentioned going home, which makes outsiders think that Li Kuan has any ideas again.

The conscience of heaven and earth.

Although Li Kuan occasionally glances at Gu Panpan's long legs, he really didn't have the idea of beating her.

On the contrary, this girl wants to pry Li Kuan into the corner every day!

"This serialization is not just a book that can be put on it. If according to your statement, what else do I toss about "Dream of Red Mansions", and directly split "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" or "The Legend of the White Snake" into a chapter of serialized chapters, wouldn't it be okay? ”

This time, Li Kuan's rare attitude is more firm.

Datang Daily wants to take advantage of "Dream of Red Mansions" to make it popular, if this book is published in advance, then what is the point of serialization?

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, if you don't want to finish the book all at once, it's actually okay, but you can talk about a few more chapters. A few chapters will not have any impact on the serialization of Datang Daily. ”

Gu Panpan came to the side with a delaying tactic.

However, Li Kuan is not in the oil and salt today, so he has to hang the appetite of the gang in Chang'an City to add a little heat to "Dream of Red Mansions" and Datang Daily.

"Lord Wang, since the name of this Datang Daily is called Daily, and now it only comes out once every three days, will it be a bit unworthy of its name, can you consider publishing one page a day?"

Wu Meiniang's suggestion seems to be very reasonable, but in the final analysis, I still want Li Kuan to say a few more chapters.

"Don't worry, wait until tomorrow to think about the daily version."

Wu Meiniang: ......

Cheng Jingwen: ......

……

Guanshishan Academy.

Xu Jingzong put the recent Datang Daily on the table, thinking about the intention of Li Kuan's arrangement.

"Xu joins the army, this Datang Daily is actually a kind of short news summary book, since His Royal Highness the King of Chu attaches great importance to this kind of thing, in fact, our academy can also make a similar one. Of course, the Chu Wangfu already has a Datang Daily, and it is definitely pointless for us to do the same, and maybe it will make the prince dissatisfied. But if we prepare a newspaper specifically for the students of the academy and for the people of the world, will it be in line with the wishes of His Royal Highness the King of Chu? ”

Liu Jie is now like Xu Jingzong's secretary, following Xu Jingzong every day.

Of course, he didn't waste any effort in doing this, and he learned things faster than he did anything.

Especially with people like Xu Jingzong.

Faintly, in the first class of students of Guanshishan Academy, Liu Jie is the most powerful batch.

"A newspaper dedicated to college students? Will these students be willing to pay for it? Besides, this kind of newspaper, what do we say? I can't just talk about some trivial things in the academy in general. ”

Liu Jie's idea, Xu Jingzong has not thought about it.

However, after thinking about it, he was not very satisfied after all.

Since you want to follow the trend, you must grasp the pulse, if you are not careful, and you shoot the horse's leg on the horse's leg, then it is better not to shoot.

"Xu joins the army, we can set the threshold of this newspaper a little more specially, Datang Daily reports on major events of the court, market news and business intelligence, and serialization, then we will change our thinking and prepare to publish the research results of the students and teachers of various colleges of the academy, so that there will be no conflict with Datang Daily."

Before Liu Jie threw out the proposal, he already had some thoughts in his heart.

So when Xu Jingzong asked him, he was able to continue immediately.

"This conflict has been avoided, but who would be interested in such newspapers and periodicals, except for a few students of the academy who might buy them? You can't print a bunch of newspapers every day and put them there and no one wants them, right? Besides, the results of this research can't be published every day. ”

"It's simple, we can relate this newspaper to other things. For example, nowadays, when the household department recruits officials, don't they all have to come to Guanshishan Academy to take the arithmetic grade test, as well as the craftsman grade evaluation of each workshop, there are also exams, and the test questions are all issued by the teachings of our academy. Then why don't we make a rule that in the future, the content of these exams will be extracted from the information published in this newspaper, so that these people will not be able to buy our newspapers and periodicals. ”

Liu Jie's words made Xu Jingzong's eyes light up.

Although the approach is a bit lacking, the effect is definitely very good.

Xu Jingzong still has this vision.

"Liu Jie, your idea is good, then the matter of this academy newspaper will be handed over to you. You sort out a plan first, and I'll find a time to report to His Royal Highness the King of Chu. ”

……

In Diandu Dezhong, Changsun Chong and Zheng Hai were talking about "Chang'an Evening News" there.

"Brother Eldest Sun, I'm looking for someone to inquire clearly, don't look at the latest edition of Datang Daily has sold more than 10,000 copies in Chang'an City, in fact, it's not a glorious thing at all."

"Oh? Where does this come from? ”

Changsun Chong also heard the news, and thought that his Chang'an Evening News had only been printed in 1,000 copies, and it was not sold out, so he felt a little entangled.

Now that I heard Zheng Hai's somewhat different statement, I was curious.

"The price of this Datang Daily is a penny, and the cost of paper, printing, writers, and rewards for selling newspapers are all counted, and selling a newspaper in Chang'an City will cost at least two pennies. Don't look at these two pennies as nothing, but they accumulate over time, and they are not a small amount. ”

"Two pennies? This is very close to the loss gap of our Chang'an Evening News, but their sales are more than ten times that of us, and the total loss is more than ten times that of us. ”

Changsun Chong finally found a reason to make himself happy.

"Hehe, this is just the situation in Chang'an City. I heard that the Chu Wangfu also sent people to transport the Datang Daily to various state capitals in Guanzhong Province, as well as Luoyang and other annex state capitals to sell. In these places, the rise in transportation costs alone can cost at least two pennies per newspaper, if not more. ”

Zheng Hai can't see Li Kuan's operation at all now.

Although he also supports Weishui Academy to follow suit, he will never agree to take such a big step all at once.

"Is this Li Kuan afraid of a lot of money and has no land to put flowers? What good is it for him to sell newspapers at a loss like this? Could it be that he still wants to take this opportunity to plot something? ”

Changsun Chong couldn't understand Li Kuan's operation.

"Who knows, but this newspaper is public, but if he wants to play any conspiracy, everyone can recognize it at a glance, and we will see what tricks he wants to play."

……

In the Tianxiang Pavilion, there has been a change point recently.

I don't know which girl or my mother's idea, there are some Datang Daily newspapers everywhere in Tianxiang Pavilion.

This newspaper costs a penny for a dish, and Tianxiang Pavilion buys hundreds of copies every time and puts them everywhere, but it doesn't cost much.

But many guests who come to have fun will pick it up and watch it from time to time.

In this way, they will stay in the Tianxiang Pavilion for a longer time.

In a place like Qinglou, I'm not afraid that if you stay here for too long, I'm afraid that no one will come.

As long as you're here, people will always find an opportunity for you to spend money.

"Girl, give, this is the latest edition of Datang Daily that has just been released, and the newsboy has just delivered it."

Xiao Qian handed Sisi a newspaper.

Although Xiao Qian also knows some words, things like reading newspapers are still too difficult for her.

Therefore, every time she pesters her own girl to tell her own story.

Sisi is also happy to have someone to share with him.

"Brother Toné is like the sea recommending Xibin".

Sisi didn't read anything else, and directly found the latest chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions" and began to read it with relish.

"Ouch, don't keep going around there, I'm going to get dizzy."

"Girl, what is the story in this chapter? So what happened to Lin Daiyu? ”

Xiao Qian looked like a tickling mouse, constantly circling around Sisi, and now when she saw Sisi stop talking to herself, she quickly asked her own question.

"I'll tell you later, this chapter is much better than the previous one, there seems to be a lot of foreshadowing, I feel like this book is starting to enter the main chapter, you wait for me to read it again and then tell you."

After Sisi finished speaking, no matter how much Xiao Qian's eyes looked forward to it, she continued to bury her head in reading the newspaper.

And there are many people who react like her in Chang'an City.

Obviously, the effect of Li Kuan's serialized tricks is not ordinarily good.
