Chapter 822: The Newspaper Moves East

I just sat down and took a sip of hot tea, but I didn't expect the little guy to come to report that there were three gentlemen visiting, one of whom claimed to be surnamed Lin, and he was not very old.

Li Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, this not very old Mr. Lin should be Lin Yi, I heard that he has been busy in the South China Sea for the past few days, but he doesn't know when he will come back.

Li Yi hurriedly arranged for the little maid to invite him, and after a while, he saw three people walking into the courtyard quickly, the current one was Lin Yi, and the two people who came in afterwards couldn't help but surprise Li Yi, but he didn't expect Huang Qingyuan and Zhang Zijian to come over from Yunnan.

After a period of greetings, Li Yi hurriedly and enthusiastically invited them to the living room and arranged for the maid to make tea.

After the guest sat down, Huang Qingyuan said with a smile: "We came uninvited, and I hope the handsome man will forgive me!" ”

Li Yi smiled: "What Mr. Huang said, I can't even invite him!" Thousands of miles away from Yunnan to the capital, you must have worked hard along the way, I wanted to wait until the right time to recruit you, but I didn't expect you to come in advance. Hehe! You're here at the right time, and I'm trying to use you! ”

Lin Yi smiled from the side: "I just came back from the South China Sea last night, and Mr. Huang and Zijian came to me early this morning, hehe!" When I saw them, I almost couldn't believe what was happening in front of me. ”

Li Yi nodded and said, "Yes!" You came at the right time, I was thinking that the capital is so big, there are many opportunities to take advantage of, if there is no strong public opinion propaganda force, I am afraid that many things will not be easy to do! ”

Huang Qingyuan said: "We moved east this time, it can be said that we have moved all the family here, and all the machines and raw materials are on the way to the capital, and it will be about two or three days to arrive in the capital." Oh! Please forgive us for not consulting the commander in advance, but now the situation has changed, and we have to do so. ”

Li Yi was surprised: "What situation can force you to be so anxious? Could it be that there is some accident in Yunnan? ”

Huang Qingyuan sighed and said, "Alas! The handsome man doesn't know anything! Soon after the marshal left, Mr. Tao proposed to abolish the Yunnan Times Office, saying that the newspaper office was costly and of no benefit to the people, and that we had been given a limited time to stop the operation of the newspaper after the year and take back the shares owned by the government. Otherwise, the museum will be forcibly closed after the year, and no more job assignments will be made for the newspaper and no more salaries. ”

"Alas! There was no choice but to do so, so after discussing with Zijian, I decided to move the newspaper to the capital immediately, which was also the plan proposed by Dashuai back then, but it was only a little earlier. ”

Li Yi sighed, this is really a son of heaven and a courtier! Now that Tao Yue is in charge of Yunnan, isn't everything up to him? Probably in his eyes, the Yunnan Times Museum is a tasteless and discarded chicken rib, which consumes the government's assets in vain, but does not bring any visible benefits.

The most important thing is that the newspaper guides the public opinion of the people, and through the popularization of legal knowledge, the common people know the procedures of the government to do things, and whether it is doing well or not can make spicy comments, and even quote scriptures to theorize with the government, and even have disputes, which is not conducive to the government's arbitrary administration. If the government acts in a constrained manner, this is not what Tao Yue, a member of the Yunnan family, is willing to see.

Li Yi said angrily: "In this case, we can't reason with him anymore, after all, he still has the final say in Yunnan." If you come, you will be safe, and the capital is also the time when you need it. I don't know if you've heard of it, but now the South China Sea is seriously flooded, and the government's disaster relief efforts alone have not been caught, and the publicity is not in place. ”

"I was trying to use the power of public opinion to gather goodwill from all sides to support the relief efforts in the South China Sea, but I was struggling with not enough publicity. You've arrived just in time, and when all the machines and materials are ready, we must get the newspaper up and running as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Zijian said: "Then it seems that the timing of our coming over is quite right, although we know some about the situation of the floods in the South China Sea, but we didn't expect it to be so serious." Mr. Huang and I came here after the New Year, and we knew that Dashuai would definitely need us, so we didn't dare to delay on the road, and hurried over, just to play for Dashuai as soon as possible, so as not to miss the opportunity! ”

Huang Qingyuan said: "This eastward move, we also have the consent of the old castle lord Lin. Mr. Lin was not in Yunnan, and he couldn't discuss many things, so he had to ask the lord of Lin Laobao, who didn't agree with him at first, saying that he felt that something was missing if he didn't read the Yunnan Times for a day, and he felt sorry for the closure of the Yunnan Times Museum. But Lord Lin also knew that the matter was irreparable, so he nodded and agreed. ”

"Oh! Also, we have returned all the shares of the government and returned the dividends of 500 yuan to the government, even if Lord Tao is not satisfied, there is no way, hehe! ”

Li Yi smiled and said, "It seems that the income is still too small, which will make Master Tao not very satisfied." If you give tens of thousands of dollars to the government every year, they will take you as the God of Wealth. Oh! By the way, in this case, isn't the newspaper wholly owned by Zhenghe Commercial Bank? ”

"Oh! This is a bit bad, you must know that in this capital, this weapon of public opinion can't be touched by Zhenghe Commercial Bank. Hey! As a businessman, if you control public opinion and propaganda, this is not what the imperial court wants to see, after all, it is too sensitive. ”

Lin Yi nodded and said: "I also know the pros and cons of this, I will discuss it with my second uncle tomorrow and transfer the shares of the newspaper." However, this transfer of shares is really a bit tricky, you and I are both court officials, and there is a lot of inconvenience, even our relatives can't get involved in it. ”

Li Yi smiled: "What's so difficult about this? In my opinion, all the shares of the newspaper will be transferred to the names of Mr. Huang and Zijian. The two of them have little to do with Zhenghe Firm, and no one in the capital knows their origins, which is the best way to deal with them at present. ”

Li Yi is the major shareholder of Zhenghe Commercial Bank, and of course has the right to decide the ownership of the equity of Yunnan Times, and at present, Zhenghe Commercial Bank must also stay out of the matter, which is beyond doubt.

Huang Qingyuan and Zhang Zijian both understood very well in their hearts, this was just a way to hide people's eyes, there was no need to be humble, and they immediately agreed.

At this time, Lin Yi said again: "Since the newspaper and Zhenghe Commercial Bank have broken away from the relationship, they need to fend for themselves and support themselves, and they must not have any dealings with Zhenghe Commercial Bank on the surface, otherwise, once they are reported by good deeds, the officials will take the opportunity to make trouble, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for Zhenghe Commercial Bank to gain a foothold in the capital." ”
