Chapter 169: Counterattack

But Zhang Yi didn't seem to notice this at all, and the smile was called a casual and unhurried.

"The kid is just a small guy, how can he know something that all the scholars don't know, even if the kid inquires, those officials won't pay attention to the kid." said words of inferiority, but Zhang Yi did not have the slightest inferiority complex on his face.

Suddenly, the conversation changed, "Zhang Gongzi and Tang Gongzi are people with status, naturally they are very different from people with my status, I wonder if Zhang Gongzi and Tang Gongzi can open the eyes of the kid?" ”

As soon as these words came out, both Zhang Zhijin and Tang Yihu were sneering on their faces, they are really difficult to ride a tiger now, just like Zhang Yi said, he is just a small guy, even if he has talent and fame, his identity will still not change, the same is a small guy, with the identity of a small guy, even if there is "Jiangning Daily" behind, it is reasonable that some news is stranded.

But they are different, Zhang Zhijin and Tang Yihu are serious scholars, according to their words, that is, people who have a promising future and may become officials in the future, and they can be regarded as having some status, and Zhang Yi's request is not excessive, if they refuse, they will have to end up with a reputation of being stingy and stingy.

Especially Tang Yihu, who originally fell into the name of an unfilial mother because of Zhang Yi's digging pit, if he falls into a stain again, then even if he has the ability to reach the sky, his career in this life is hopeless.

"Zhang Gongzi, the founder of Jiangning Daily, doesn't know the news, how can a scholar with an unknown reputation in the lower district know?" Zhang Zhijinqiang said with a smile, he can understand where Zhang Yi is a lamb who is bullied, under the sheepskin, it is clearly a wild wolf that catches the gap and does not let go, they really look away.

People don't fulfill people's wishes, Zhang Zhijin thought that after these words came out, Zhang Yi would no longer be embarrassed to say anything, and both of them had a step down, but what he didn't expect was that there were not only a few of them here.

"Zhang Gongzi's words are wrong, I heard that Zhang Gongzi has a lot of relationship with Miss Wanru, what is Baihualou? How well-informed? Mr. Zhang, don't you want to share it with us? ”

Some people have long been unaccustomed to Zhang Zhijin's appearance of being on top, but now that Zhang Zhijin has fallen behind Zhang Yi, how can others let go of this opportunity to fall into the ground?

The one who spoke was the scholar who had a grudge with Zhang Zhijin for a long time, Zhu Rui, originally this person was also a well-known scholar in Jiangning City, but because of Zhang Zhijin's jealousy and deliberate framing, Zhu Rui's reputation was ruined at a young age, and his future was bleak, and he hated Zhang Zhijin even more.

"Zhu Gongzi, this thing can be eaten indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately, if you talk indiscriminately, it will ruin the reputation of Miss Wanru." The cold eyes glared at Zhu Rui, Zhang Zhijin's eyes seemed to be quenched with poison, if Zhang Yi had followed his words, then the two of them would have been able to end well, but now that Zhu Rui was so disturbed, wouldn't he be embarrassed and thrown home?

Zhang Zhijin never thought about what Zhang Yi should do if he didn't get off the donkey down the slope, in Zhang Zhijin's opinion, Zhang Yi is just a slut, he is a scholar, of course Zhang Yi has to listen to him.

"Zhu Gongzi is right, the kid is very curious about this, how about asking Zhang Gongzi to solve the kid's doubts?" Looking at Zhang Zhijin's reluctant look, Zhang Yi smiled secretly in his heart, let you calculate this little guy, retribution has arrived, right?

There was still an empathetic look on his face, "That's it, the kid doesn't dare to take advantage of Zhang Gongzi, if Zhang Gongzi shares this news with us, and at the same time allows the kid to publish this news on the "Jiangning Daily", then how about the next issue of profit, how about the kid and Zhang Gongzi?" ”

This condition is not not abundant, although a copy of "Jiangning Daily" is indeed not very much, and it can even be described as cheap, but it can't stand the amount and the cost is low! Behind Liu Duanyang, people with a little ability in Jiangning City know that Zhang Yi was able to make "Jiangning Daily" prosperous.

Not only because of his own profound literary skills, but also because Zhang Yi mastered a technique called movable type printing, so Zhang Yi was able to keep the cost very low and naturally earn more.

Don't look at the profit of just one issue, for people from middle-to-upper-level families, eighty percent of the first issue is already a lot of money, which is enough to move nine out of ten people in Jiangning City, and because it is related to literature, no one will say that "Jiangning Daily" is full of copper smell.

On the contrary, they also thought that if they could be on the Jiangning Daily, they would be able to make them famous, so the scholars were envious of Zhang Yi's promise to Zhang Zhijin.

Do you want to say that Zhang Zhijin is excited? The answer is heartwarming, with such a large amount of money, I'm afraid there are not many people who are not tempted, right? Someone once roughly estimated that the silver earned by an issue of Jiangning Daily was thousands of taels! Eighty percent, to say the least, there are a thousand taels.

But he really doesn't know why, Zhang Yi has come up with such tempting conditions, if he doesn't open his mouth again, I'm afraid some people will say that he has swept away his self-cherishment, although there are many people who have swept away his self-cherishment, but if it is put on the bright side, such a reputation is not good after all.

For a while, Zhang Zhijin only felt a bitterness in his mouth, which was more bitter than eating ten catties of Coptis chinensis, looking at Zhang Yi's anticipation and the curious looks of the onlookers, Zhang Zhijin only felt a little dilemma.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi smiled "understandingly", "It seems that Zhang Gongzi is still a little confused, it doesn't matter, Zhang Gongzi can think clearly and then tell Zaixia, as long as the news is announced by the government, the kid's words are valid, I don't know what Zhang Gongzi thinks?" ”

He knew that if Zhang Zhijin was forced to be tightened at this time, he would not be able to get anything good, so in that case, it would be better to push the boat down the river and give Zhang Zhijin a step down, but Zhang Yi's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of, both inside and outside the words, it is said that Zhang Zhijin is stingy, wants money and doesn't want so many people to know.

Zhang Yi is determined, Zhang Zhijin will definitely not think so much at this time, and it will be easier to dig a pit for Zhang Zhijin to jump.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Yi's words, Zhang Zhijin said yes again and again, and without waiting for a few words to finish, he proposed his farewell and walked away with Tang Yihu.

So digging a pit is such a wonderful feeling? If someone provokes buddies in the future, you can continue to play, and the feeling of making the opponent suffer a dark loss is really cool!
