Looking at these scholars who were on the road, Zhu Zilong smiled again and continued: "There is another thing, my newspaper will require more and more content in the future. If you can't wait, you can ask your colleagues to write a note. The pen fee is the same, and each one is good. At the same time, you, as editors, review their first drafts, and the redrafts are still done by my side. ”

While speaking, Zhu Zilong took another contract and said, "Look at this, no problem, just sign and draw." Being an editor will definitely take up your own time to write articles, time is money, and it is impossible to keep you busy in vain. From now on, a few of you will be the first column editors of the Da Song Weekly Newspaper, with a monthly salary of ten taels of silver. You can also submit the manuscript if you usually have time, and the cost will be calculated separately. ”

A few book histories in Kaifeng Mansion were dumbfounded all of a sudden, and there is such a good profession?

I took the contract and looked at it carefully. I found that the writing was reasonable, and I didn't need to sit on duty and deliver the manuscript in advance. If you feel unwell, you need to notify in advance, or ask someone else to send the manuscript. It's basically a very freelance profession!

This is easier than being an errand in Kaifeng Mansion, so you can continue to be an errand in Kaifeng Mansion and get a few taels of silver. At the same time, I am a part-time editor, take at least ten taels, and then usually write a manuscript by myself and submit it, which is a few taels to a dozen taels of income.

It's not that I don't know, but I was shocked, and these scholars suddenly found that if they worked hard, they would have a much higher income than a county master.

Moreover, when he became an editor, his subordinates recruited other people to write together, because he had the right of preliminary review.

This is equivalent to having money and a little power, this sour is really, hehe, hehe, hehe.

Several book historians hurriedly stepped forward to sign and pledge, and then Zhu Zilong handed over the first month's silver to them in advance. Several people said goodbye and went back excitedly, and quietly called dozens of familiar scribes, and said so and so.

Soon, one to ten, ten to hundred, hundreds to thousands. More and more unsuccessful scholars have heard of such a thing.

As Zhu Zilong guessed, there were many literate people in the Song Dynasty. There are also many people who take the imperial examination, but there are so many positions that can be officials. Most people can't be officials. So what to do?

A group of down-and-out literati, a little bit of money every month, live a tight life. Some people even have a long time and 0 income.

Just like the college students in the 21st century, because they are scholars, they can't save face when they do manual work. Let's do business, these scholars don't know how to do business, and they don't have capital.

Most of them can only go to the yamen to mix in history, help people become masters, become accountants, go to the village to be teachers, and so on.

Of course, the most important thing is to repeat the exam again and prepare to take the exam again.

However, it is too difficult to pass three levels and cut five generals. In this era, even if you want to learn from Fan Jinzhongju in later generations, you can't do it, alas. After hearing about Zhu Zilong, many scholars in Kaifeng City, who were off the list and had no money, no longer inquired and were jealous of Zhu Zilong's affairs.

turned his head and became Zhu Zilong's worker, and went back to prepare. Write a manuscript according to Zhu Zilong's newly accepted editor's requirements, this text can be sold for silver, where can I find such a good thing?

In the past, only the calligraphy and paintings of talented and famous artists could be sold for some money. The words and drawings of ordinary readers, Yagen are not valuable.

In the next week, hundreds of nearly 1,000 unsuccessful scholars in Kaifeng City went to inquire about strange things. Soon, each person wrote a few articles and stories, and thousands of drafts fell like snowflakes.

Several newly recruited editors under Zhu Zilong, plus Li Bei'er, Shangguan Shishi, Li Qingzhao and others, all of them can't be seen.

As a last resort, Zhu Zilong recruited 20 new editors through old editors and new editors. The overtime review was finally completed in a day or two.

At the same time, the Great Song Weekly has not yet been officially launched, and its reputation is spreading.

After all, nearly a thousand readers came together to contribute to this newspaper. There are also a few famous writers who have written and spent a lot of money, which is a lot of money. On weekdays, even if it is the official court gazette, it has never invested so much.

Many people are very concerned about what this newspaper will look like.

Of course, there are also some people who spread negative news.

Some lace tabloids, because they were worried that their competitors were too strong, spread Zhu Zilong's Great Song Weekly Newspaper everywhere, and they were still selling their reputation. Something that just makes a few of your beauties have fun must not be on the table!

"It's just a gold master, and look at the Shangguan Shishi, one of the editors-in-chief. used to be the number one in heaven and earth, and many merry scribes used to go to the party, isn't it just for a kiss. Zhao Ta is still a wine-colored person, but he is a vassal and elegant, just to please women. The Great Song Weekly is not an elegant thing! ”

However, as soon as these tabloids made such claims. But when it just got the approval of some people, it was out of play.

The reason is that the famous prostitutes in the surrounding areas of Kaifeng, led by Hua Xiangrong, Li Shishi and others, supported the Great Song Weekly with an iron heart. Which of these women doesn't have hundreds of fans of scholars and talents? There are even many officials who are fans of them!

The influence is greater than that of the diva female stars of the 21st century. Of course, they don't know that Zhu Zilong is Zhu Sihai, but this one-sided position supports "Dream of Red Mansions", and the influence of Aiwu and Wu is not who or which small tabloid can contend with.

It can even be said that even some high-ranking officials who have opinions on the Great Song Weekly will not go against it on the surface.

One is to avoid letting people say that the big bully the small, and the other is that there is a son in the family, who doesn't have a favorite prostitute?

It's just a newspaper, and there are dozens of tabloids everywhere these days. What if one more is more popular? Let him go, or even help him.

For a time, except for a few people and officials with ulterior motives, Zhu Zilong's Great Song Weekly reported that the positive propaganda was much higher than the negative impact. It has not yet begun to be sold, its influence among the literati and the common people, as well as its popularity, has been the highest newspaper in the more than 100 years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty!

As soon as the sun was shining in the afternoon, Zhu Zilong, who was lying down in the heat, slept on the chair with a book to cover his face.

The footsteps came, and Zhu Zilong got up when he heard the movement, opened his eyes and said, "Who?" What's the matter? ”

Li Sanniang and Shangguan Shishi approached with a smile, came over and handed him a bunch of new drafts, and said, "The manuscripts sent by several gentlemen, we have passed the review, please take a look at the prince and do a final review." ”

Zhu Zilong sat up, twitched his face, and began to read the manuscript.

I have to say that he almost vomited in the past few days.

Before the crossing, he was also an Internet enthusiast. My biggest hobby every day is playing games and, I thought one of the coolest professions in the world, probably was the Internet censorship editor.

But it wasn't until he was now the ultimate editor-in-chief that he realized that this was really not an easy job.

Most of the routines are mostly similar, and in this ancient world, classical Chinese was used at every turn. It is best to say that it must be written in the vernacular? But those who read still like to use classical Chinese!

Moreover, his new use of punctuation marks could only be promoted to the outside world through the sale of new newspapers, and not many people know about it now. Most of these contributions have to be understood by Zhu Zilong by himself, because there is no punctuation.

It's called a headache to watch, and he is about to doubt his life!
