Chapter 23 Newspaper Publicity
Tiantang Bank shares financing fundraising, began to implement. When all the children of the Li family of the royal family knew that they could participate in the shares, everyone was extremely motivated. First of all, the emperor is all in the shares, what else do you want to do? What's more, the prince's industry is so prosperous, and the return on investment is so exciting. Therefore, in a short period of time, the funds of all the industries under the prince's name suddenly swelled, and the industry began to expand rapidly, attracting many craftsmen to join the city, and idle laborers also came to inquire in detail.
With the increase in personnel, the number of people who know how to manage is rare, and those who have some ability have become officials, who wants to do business. Although Li Chengqian specially examined and hired a few stewards, he also actively selected talents from among the slaves. However, in the face of the expansion of the industry, it is not enough, and it is necessary to get hands-on management training. Although the basic management science compiled by himself has been printed and distributed, it is simply not realistic to achieve immediate results.
And as the mouthpiece of the country that the father and son talked about secretly: public opinion propaganda. It was finally put on the table and put on the agenda. In fact, Li Shimin did not agree to run a newspaper at first, but when he looked at the large piece of paper that Li Chengqian took out and folded into eight pages, and read the contents of it, it was immediately unusual. Strongly advocate that it be done immediately.
"The military and civilians are close to each other, and it is the most glorious to protect the family and guard the border",
"The Datang Law Decree actually stipulates that?" ,
"Yangzhou has arrived, will Chang'an be far away?"
"Secrets of the Palace in the Middle of the Night". ……
Li Shimin looked at this "late-night palace secret" at first, and his heart was shocked, "Don't write this royal secret, right?" He asked weakly.
"Grandpa, don't you just know if you look at the content?" Li Chengqian felt a little funny.
Oh, after reading it, I took a long breath, and I felt a little bit in my heart, my son is older, and I know how to feel sorry for Lao Tzu. It turned out that he stayed up late and reviewed the chapter with the ministers.
"Look at the title, and then look at the content, Grandpa also roughly understands what you mean, so the newspaper must be controlled by the imperial court and the royal family, except for your Tiantang Weekly, the people are temporarily prohibited from issuing printed newspapers. Wait until the promulgation of the regulatory decree before gradually liberalizing. Li Shimin thought about it and finally made a decision.
When Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Eldest Sun Wuji and other ministers looked at this newspaper, they all twitched the corners of their mouths. Except for the first one, the rest, this is too scary.
"Xuancheng, you take the lead in reviewing and distributing the editor-in-chief, the auxiliary machine, you and the Zhugong are responsible for cataloging the articles, the bachelors of Hongwenguan, the students of Guozijian, and even all kinds of officials and people can provide article information. For the purpose of promoting the image of the Tang Dynasty, it issued decrees, punished lawlessness, educated the people, preached etiquette, cracked down on foreign enemies, and promoted the prestige of our country. Li Shimin thought about it, but his imagination was really limited, so he had to say simply.
Wei Zheng thought about it for a moment and asked, "What are the specific aspects?" ”
Li Shimin forgot to glance at Li Chengqian, who was standing below without saying a word, and said with a smile: "The prince is smart and serious, and he has a lot to do with the distribution of newspapers, so you can discuss with him about the specific operation and specific content of newspaper distribution, but no matter what the content, the facts must first be explained, and it must not damage the face of the Tang Dynasty and the imperial court. In a moment, you will discuss and draw up a decree on the printing and publication of newspapers and books, and at present no one shall print or distribute newspapers except with my approval. ”
"The name of this newspaper?" Looking at the four big words on the newspaper in his hand: Tiantang Weekly, Wei Zheng raised his head and asked.
"This is run by the prince, and the new one is called Tiantang Daily, which is issued daily, and the number of prints and distributions is determined according to the market sales. In the East and West Markets, they are sold at a fixed price by the government. If the road is built and cleared, it can be sold in other cities. Li Shimin thought for a while, and finally said, "When it comes to road construction, by the way, in order to facilitate the people to buy and sell goods, from the Shangyuan day, the East and West Markets are open every hour, and when officials are not on duty, they can enter the market, but they can only enter the East Market, and they are not allowed to wear official uniforms, which is insulting." It is forbidden to ask for forced purchases and bully the market. After the warm spring in February, all the walls were demolished, and Chang'an City officially began to build roads, build drainage ditches, and build new granaries. ”
Li Shimin said everything in one breath, and was waiting for someone to refute it, and he had thought about what he should say. As a result, after waiting for a long time, no one squeaked, and I was immediately deflated, quickly stood up, and said casually: "Disperse." ”
In fact, it is also the same as building the original dirt road into a concrete avenue, there is no muddy water and no dust, who does not want to walk, not to mention, who does not want to go to the market after resting and leisure. The gutter was repaired, and I couldn't smell it anymore. After repairing the concrete granary, I am no longer afraid of rats, and the grain is no longer afraid of moisture and mold. The wall was demolished, the community was opened, and it was much easier to enter and exit. Only when you have a sick brain will you oppose such a good thing.
The ministers hurriedly retreated, and then surrounded Li Chengqian, Wei Zheng and Changsun Wuji, as soon as you say, I will ask. Li Chengqian hurriedly crossed his hands and bowed, "Princess, if you are not on duty today, you might as well go to the mansion to drink tea, I will take a step first and sweep the couch in the mansion to greet you." He hurriedly turned around and left.
Li Shimin left this task to himself, such an informative topic, can he explain it clearly here? It's simply not realistic. Li Chengqian was a little depressed. In fact, Li Shimin only knew a rough idea, and he couldn't explain it to everyone at all, so he pushed 625 and threw it to Li Chengqian.
Everyone in the hall looked, the prince ran away? They all looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and Wei Zheng, and the meaning was very clear, the emperor handed over the task to you and the two hosts, and we listened to you.
Wei Zheng glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji, "Auxiliary, go to the Prince's Mansion?" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled: "Xuancheng, you are mainly in charge of the editor-in-chief." We'll do our best to help. Since Hyun Sung proposed, the duty is like this, that is natural. ”
In the Prince's Mansion, the eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng, and several secretaries and supervisors and several scholars from the Hongwen Pavilion sat at the large desks, enjoying the sugar, tea and fruits in the Prince's Mansion, while constantly asking questions, and several recorders kept writing and drawing.
After listening to Li Chengqian's general introduction and role of the newspaper, the eldest grandson Wuji first asked: "Your Highness, what do you mean by the news, politics, economy, law, military, culture, technology, customs, and advertisements, can you explain to us in detail?" In addition to the law, military can be expected to be literary, and I know a little bit about these key words, and for other names, everyone is in the clouds and confused.
