Zhang Xun was guarding at the gate, seeing Xia He coming with a group of officials from the household department, he hurriedly avoided the side, bowed to Xia He, Xia He nodded at him, and walked quickly, but Wang Mingyi and Sun Lei and others behind him returned the salute one after another.

Although Zhang Xun is only a secretary in the secretary's prison, his position is not high, but his status is not low, and he is really in the key place, and the big and small things in the country are basically supervised by their secretaries. Needless to say, Gongsun Changming, the head of the secretary and supervisor, and Zhang Xun is the number two person in the secretary and supervisor, and it is visible that he will fly Huang Tengda in the future, so naturally no one will snub him because he is just a secretary.

Zhang Xun grabbed Wang Mingyi and said in a low voice: "Brother Wang stays." ”

Wang Mingyi stopped in surprise, "Brother Zhang, we're going to a meeting." If there's anything, it's good to come back. ”

"It was Li Xiang who asked me to come to you." Zhang Xun didn't let go, "You have to help me with this." ”

Seeing that Xia He and the others had already entered, and hearing that Li Xiang knew, Wang Mingyi was a little curious about what Zhang Xun was looking for.

After listening to Zhang Xun's distress, Wang Mingyi couldn't help laughing.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, Li Xiang said that you are begging for food with a golden doll, and he is really not wrong. Let me ask you, what is on it in our Datang Monthly? ”

"Of course, there are things like court policies, laws and regulations." Chapter Follower.

Who will be watching this kind of content? Officials, businessmen, scholars, right? Ordinary people are afraid that they will not pay attention to these things, and you will naturally not sell much, and you will not be able to sell them at a good price. And officials everywhere are ordered by the yamen, and the price is lower, right? ”

"Yes, the money given by the yamen is completely at a loss." Zhang Xun nodded again and again.

"You have to find a way to make ordinary people like to buy your newspaper." Wang Mingyi said: "Now under our rule, there are many literate people, Wuyi alone is hundreds of thousands of people, the entire north, but tens of millions of people, so many people, you only sell 10,000 copies, you don't lose money, who loses." ”

"I can't sell out of these 10,000 copies alone!" Zhang Xun lowered his voice and said: "Or Tian Bo Tanaka Cheng gave me a way, they secretly got these newspapers to sell in the pseudo-Liang and the south, I heard that one can be sold for one or two silver, the problem is, Tanaka Cheng is only willing to give me a cost of work, the money earned, he doesn't have a penny with me!" ”

Wang Mingyi laughed: "It's me and I'm not with you." Now Xia Shangshu is picking out the money tightly, which department is tight, like the internal guard spending money is even more sea, and some can't even go to the accounts on the surface, Tanaka Cheng now every time he meets me, he opens his mouth to borrow money, and I hide from him like hiding from the plague. ”

"Don't go off-topic." Zhang Xun hurriedly interrupted him, "Tell me quickly, how can you help me solve the problem." ”

"It's easy to solve your problem, it's to sell more. As long as the sales volume increases, you can make money, right? Wang Mingyi said.

"Don't talk about making money, as long as you don't lose money." Zhang Xun sighed. "What's your best idea? If it is useful, I will invite you to drink wine when I go back, and spend a large banquet full of sixteen bowls. ”

"Then it's decided." Wang Mingyi said with a smile: "Although I don't care about the ** bowl full of flowers, but your brother Zhang rarely invites a guest, I must go." ”

"If you have a good way, you will naturally go."

"Brother Zhang, you have to grasp the psychology of ordinary people, they are not interested in the major policies of the imperial court, or they don't understand it at all, what do they like? Naturally, it's a curiosity, and if you get something fresh and publish it on it, it's good to be fine. ”

"This is the newspaper of the imperial court, how can you get these?"

Wang Mingyi disagreed: "I read your newspaper, it is densely arranged, full of words, it makes people dizzy, you think of ideas in the layout, make some corners and corners come out, and post these miscellaneous things on it." ”

Zhang Xun thought about it for a long time, and finally said helplessly: "It's not impossible, but what are you going to do?" ”

Wang Mingyi coughed dryly and said: "I heard that there is a father and son in our court, both of whom are important ministers, but the father and son are in the same lineage, and they are both afraid of their wives. ”

Zhang Xun's face immediately turned red and glared angrily at Wang Mingyi.

Wang Mingyi pretended not to know, so he said neatly: "Brother Zhang, think about it, who doesn't want to see who this father and son are?" ”

"Brother Wang, you, you are not a gentleman......" Zhang Xun said angrily.

Seeing that Zhang Xunzhen was a little annoyed, Wang Mingyi hurriedly said: "I'm just giving an example, do you think this is not appropriate, can you still write about our Mr. Gongsun?" He had just married a new wife, and I heard that his wife was an interesting person. ”

"Mr. Gongsun is my boss, you don't want me to live a good life, do you?" Zhang Xun said angrily.

"What are you afraid of, is it possible that Mr. Gongsun still turns his face with you because of this? He doesn't have such a small amount, and besides, hasn't Mr. Gongsun been at odds with your father all the time? If you come to this trick, maybe Zhang Gong will be pleased. ”

Seeing that Zhang Xun still shook his head, Wang Mingyi said again: "Then it's better to write about our Li Xiang." ”

Zhang Xun was taken aback, took Wang Mingyi's hand and said: "Brother Wang, how can Li Xiang let people entertain at will, this is absolutely unacceptable." ”

"Li Xiang doesn't write, we can write about the little prince and the little county lord!" Wang Mingyi said: "Our little prince is four years old this year, I saw him riding a horse a few days ago, such a small doll, the princess has already begun to boil his body, the little princess has been weaned, and he will call his father." ”

"Does anyone see this?" Zhang Xun didn't think it was feasible.

"Who has the highest prestige in our Northland? Xiangye! Who speaks best? Xiangye. We see Xiangye every day, and from time to time we can see the little prince and the little county lord, so naturally we don't think it's unusual, but those ordinary people can see Xiangye? They weren't curious about what Xiangye's family was like? How did Xiangye's children go? You only come out once a month, so you will have a serialization and tell ordinary people about this, and someone will buy it during the storage period. ”

Zhang Xun pinched his teeth: "This is feasible." ”

"Of course, this alone is too little, and what I told you before, I must also have it." Wang Mingyi smiled: "In this matter, you are looking for Tanaka Cheng, where is he so much material." Don't you dare to mess with Mr. Gongsun, are you still afraid of other people? For example, our Han Bing Department has just accepted a new concubine, who is twenty-eight years old, but Han Shangshu himself is almost fifty. ”

Zhang Xun couldn't help laughing: "I'm afraid that Han Shangshu will come and cut me with a knife." ”

"There are other ways to do this." Wang Mingyi said: "Do you know that Huamanlou and Zhuyuan have become rivals in the past two years? You can go to one of them and ask them to pay for it, and you advertise it in the newspapers, and as long as one of them is on, the other will follow. ”

"Propaganda for businessmen? This, that's not big, is it? ”

"What's so bad!" Wang Mingyi sneered: "I am the biggest businessman in Datang." ”

Zhang Xun suddenly remembered that although this person had the title of Hubu Shilang, he was really the biggest businessman in the Tang Dynasty. "In that case, why don't you give me money?"

"Think beautifully!" Wang Mingyi said: "My supply and marketing cooperatives are all operating bulk materials, all related to the national economy and people's livelihood, we need you to help me publicize the market, I have no competitors at all." The businessmen you are looking for are those highly competitive industries, restaurants, inns, etc., in Wuyi, especially those with relatively high grades, who are fighting for their heads. Forget it, you don't know them very well, I'll sell them one of them when I go back, and let them come to you, but anyone with a little business vision, if there is such an opportunity, they will not let it go, what about you, you still have to take Joe, don't be overjoyed, the more you hesitate, the higher the price will be, understand? ”

"What if the asking price is too high and he won't vote?"

"Brother Zhang, don't look at it, who runs your newspaper, who reads it, those businessmen, that one is not a thief and a thief, I didn't know that I could do this before, once I found out that I could do this, they would keep an eye on you like leeches." Wang Mingyi waved his hand and said, "You wait for someone to come to the door to beg you, don't forget, the building is full of flowers, and there are sixteen bowls of seats." ”

Watching Wang Mingyi wave his robe sleeves and go away in a dashing manner, Zhang Xun was stunned for a long time before he said to himself: "The main table of sixteen bowls costs ten yuan, and then counting the wine, oops, this Wang Mingyi is a playboy, he won't still ask to listen to music and dance, right?" After that night, there were no more than dozens of times, how to explain when I went back? ”

Wang Mingyi proudly walked into Li Ze's public hall, gave a salute, and then found a brocade stool and sat down.

"Got a good idea for him?" Looking at Wang Mingyi's spring breezy appearance, Li Ze smiled and said, "It looks like Zhang Xun is going to bleed heavily?" ”

"Gave him a little bit of ideas!" Wang Mingyi said with a smile: "Zhang Xun is originally an extremely smart person, as long as he makes a little move, he will definitely be able to make shocking moves." ”

Wang Mingyi won't say that he came up with the idea to let Zhang Xun serialize the growth diary of the little prince and the little princess, this black pot let him memorize it himself, he can't afford to memorize it, and he Lao Tzu Zhang will go back to memorize.

"What's the matter?" Xia He asked.

"Didn't we run a Datang weekly newspaper to publicize our policies, introduce the customs and geography of various places, etc.? This is the matter of the supervisor. However, if you sell one, you will lose money, and Zhang Xun is very distressed. So I asked Wang Mingyi to give him ideas. Li Zedao.

"I see!" Xia He smiled: "We have allocated the start-up capital, and I don't care if we can do it in the future." No matter how much money I want, I don't have a door. ”

"Maybe not only won't I ask you for money in the future, but I can also earn you some income!" Li Ze said with a smile.
