Staying at Yifeng Pavilion?

Zong Xiu wanted to, but he didn't dare.

This year, the girl who greeted the guests with fireworks hooked the bar, a pair of jade arms and thousands of pillows, half a red lip and ten thousand tastes, who knows if it is safe or not, and if you really get into any disease, you will not die.

Zong Xiu didn't even need to say anything, Yan Qingcheng leaned forward and leaned back with a smile.

In fact, there is still a difference between a singer and an ordinary prostitute.

While the 'final step' of their work is identical, the foreplay aspect is very different.

The singers are all literati with ink in their stomachs, and most of them play the piano and chess, drink and compose poems before doing things.

In today's terms, singers are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of high-end goods overnight.

So looks, temperament, and knowledge are absolutely fine.

Zong Xiu hurriedly arched his hand: "In this way, there will be everyone who works hard, then we will see you on the fifteenth of next month."

When Zong Xiu got home, it was late at night, he was busy all day, he was tired to death, and after chatting with Yi Qingqing, he went into the house to sleep.

At dawn the next day, before Zong Xiu's sleepiness came, he heard the sound of blowing and beating.

Yi Xiangqing walked into the house quickly and said happily: "Childe, it was the Duke of Qian Guo who came with His Majesty's holy decree, saying that he wanted to reward you." ”

"Chai Shao?"

Zong Xiu was sleepy in an instant, and what he was most afraid of now was seeing Chai Shao.

Yi poured affection into serving Zong Xiu and got dressed, and said with a smile: "If you can let the Duke of Chen Guo personally announce the decree, the reward will definitely be not small." Hehe, congratulations to the son for being added to the knighthood. ”

"......" Zong Xiu rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I'd rather not have this reward!" ”

"Why not? Isn't it good to be an official and become a knight? ”

Yi asked curiously.

Zong Xiu shook his head, he felt that Yi Yi's head was still too simple, and he didn't explain, and sighed one after another and walked to the door.

At the gate of the courtyard, Chai Shao led a hundred and ten Jin Wuwei, and the formation was extremely huge, and those Jin Wuwei were either picked or lifted, with a full load of things.

Seeing Zong Xiu come out, Chai Shao's hand shook the holy decree, and shouted loudly: "Zong Xiu takes the decree!" ”

"The minister is here."

Zong Xiu arched his hand fakely, staring at Chai Shao with unkind eyebrows, as if he was guarding against thieves.

"You ......"

Chai Shao's face changed slightly, and he quickly returned to normal, and simply closed the holy decree and handed it to Zong Xiu's arms.

"Okay, I have brought you Your Majesty's will, and you can look at it yourself slowly when you look back."

Chai Shao pointed to Jin Wuwei behind him and said, "These are all His Majesty's rewards, where can I put them?" ”

Zong Xiu looked at the dozens of boxes, he didn't know what to pack, his small courtyard would definitely not be able to fit it, and sneered: "Can you trouble them to carry them to Jiangjia Village downstream?" ”

Chai Shao gave an order to Jin Wuwei, who was accompanying him, and then mysteriously pulled Zong Xiu to the courtyard.

"Master Zong, take a step to speak."

“……”

Yes, I'm really afraid of something.

Yi saw Chai Shao enter the courtyard and fetched a bucket of water to the kitchen to boil water.

On the stone table under the tree, Chai Shao first pressed Zong Xiu on the stool and sat down, sat opposite Zong Xiu again, and said with a smile: "I will first congratulate Master Zong on his appointment to the knighthood." ”

Zong Xiu casually threw the holy decree on the table: "Okay, don't say kind words." I know you're also here on order, so let's say, how much profit are you going to leave for me? ”

Chai Shao's pupils shrank: "Zong Daren knows everything?" ”

"Tsk, Gong Guo personally announced the decree, and the pomp was big enough. In terms of relationship, Lu Gong and I are closer; In terms of status, Ying Gong is higher than you, Your Majesty did not arrange for them to announce the decree, but arranged for you, don't tell me that it is not for the newspaper's business! ”

Without waiting for Chai Shao to argue, Zong Xiu said again: "It's okay." Your Chai family's business is all over the country, and if I want to promote newspapers and periodicals to the world, I have to borrow your way. But business is negotiated, as long as it can be negotiated, then there will be done. ”

Chai Shao was also refreshed: "The newspaper is very profitable, and the treasury needs such a large sum of money." Yesterday, you were on top of the Golden Palace, forcing Your Majesty to promise the right to operate for fifteen years, which was really a bit too much. This official has come to consult with you on matters related to future business at the behest of His Majesty. ”

Zong Xiu asked angrily: "Then how much profit does Your Majesty want?" ”

Chai Shao shook his head: "Your Majesty wants more than just profits!" ”

"What, you still want to take back the fifteen-year management rights that were promised to me?"

Jong Xiu was not happy.

Didn't you say that there was no joke about the good king? Why did you backtrack again?

Chai Shao shook his head slightly: "My emperor's righteousness is thin and cloudy, a promise is a thousand gold, words must be believed, deeds must be fruitful, how can he ever break his word." Your Majesty has no intention of retracting the promise, so he asked me to come forward and cooperate with you in the name of the Chai family! ”

"Cooperation? What is the cooperation law? ”

"The right to operate is still yours, and we only need a quarter of the dominance!"

Zong Xiu quickly reacted: "You want the current news section? ”

Chai Shao did not deny it: "Not bad! In addition to what content is printed in the current news, it is still up to you to decide what to print in the poems, stories, and advertising sections. And after each issue of the newspaper is printed, Chang'an City will be sold by you, and other cities will be handed over to our Chai family. ”

"News nowadays......"

Zong Xiu muttered in a low voice, knocking on the stone table casually, he understood why Lao Li wanted this plate.

Public opinion!

Presumably Li Shimin has seen the importance of newspapers, and he personally promised that there will only be one newspaper in Datang in the next fifteen years, Zongxiu, so if you want to control public opinion, you must control Chang'an Weekly.

Public opinion is of no use to Zong Xiu, and he doesn't want to make Lao Li's opposition now, rather than tearing his face with Lao Li for a little public opinion dominance, it is better to be a favor.

Chai Shao didn't say anything, silently watching Zong Xiu think.

After a while, Zong Xiu raised his head and said, "I can accept the conditions, I just want to ask how to divide the profits?" ”

"Haha, aren't you a newspaper that sells three articles? I'll give it to you for three cents each! As for how much those newspapers sell after they are shipped out of Chang'an, you don't care. ”

Zong Xiu smiled: "Then I also have a condition, as long as the newspaper I print, no matter where you sell it, the unit price shall not exceed five cents!" ”

Doing business has to go a long way, Zong Xiu was afraid that Chai Shao would do the business of a second-class dealer, so he bought goods from him for three cents, and then went outside to ask for a price, ruining the reputation of "Chang'an Weekly".

Chai Shao hesitated slightly, and quickly said: "No problem, I don't lack this money." ”

He was a shrewd businessman with a long-term vision.

In terms of money, he is rich enough to rival the country, and he can't spend it in ten lifetimes.

In terms of status, he is a prince of the country, and it is impossible to go further.

So Chai Shao knows very well what he needs most now.

The trust of the emperor!

Only the trust of the emperor is the guarantee for the prosperity of the Chai family.

The two chatted a few more words, finalized the details of the follow-up cooperation, and made a note on the spot, and the two sides signed and pledged, and the cooperation was completed.

Seeing that the cooperation was negotiated, Chai Shao was in a hurry to return to the palace to report to Li Shimin, and without delay, he turned around and went out to take Jin Wuwei back to the palace.

"Girl, let's see what official Your Majesty has rewarded me this time."

Zong Xiu saw that Chai Shao was gone, so he beckoned Yi to come over and read the holy decree together.

After the holy decree was opened, seeing the contents inside, Zong Xiu's whole person was not good. His face was pale, and he jumped to his feet angrily.

"Damn Li Chunfeng, you deliberately stumble on me, right! Damn, don't let me see you again, I will see you again and beat you again! ”
