Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Bitter Li Ji

"Sir, please don't mind, scholar, I don't have much money, just some vegetables growing in the field." Li Ji finally made a few vegetables in the vegetable garden, and now it is only spring, and the vegetables basically only have a few seedlings, plus the vegetables that Li Ji bought in the vegetable market before, he also made two dishes, plus two eggs, and the food is relatively rich, at least Li Ji seems to be very rich.

However, Wang Qi has made a lot of money over the years, and he is used to being pampered, and when he saw these dishes, he couldn't help frowning, sure enough, poor scholars are poor, and such dishes can also be served on the table. Anyway, get some meat, or you will slaughter the hens in the yard. But this is all Li Ji's heart, and he can't bear it.

Wang Qi's face fell: "Sir, is this looking down on me?" Entertain with this dish? ”

Li Ji was taken aback, thinking that the hospitality was already very thoughtful, you must know that in normal times, Li Ji would eat some vegetables, and eggs would never be eaten, so he had to keep them to hatch the chicks. Wang Qi clearly said that the food was not good, which made Li Ji's face red: "This is indeed a bit of a lack of hospitality, Mr. Yan is tired of traveling, why don't you go out and find a restaurant to eat?" ”

"That's what it sounds like, haha." Wang Qi said with a smile, put his arm around Li Ji's shoulders and walked out, he ran over from afar, how could it be possible not to eat him.

Li Ji suffered a lot from this meal, Li Ji's teaching salary for a month was only more than 30 yuan, and he ate four or five yuan for this meal, how to spend the remaining half a month, and the rest had to be remitted to the family for ten yuan, counting his own food, and rent, there was not much left. However, Li Ji didn't dare to offend this God of Wealth, so he could only spend his blood to entertain him. Similarly, Li Ji also felt embarrassed, the last time Yan ignored the money remitted to them, he couldn't withstand the crying of his friends, and borrowed seven or eight thousand, which was a huge amount of money, from the beginning of the loan, until now, Li Ji regretted it.

After Wang Qi finished eating, he went back satisfied, preparing for the speech the day after tomorrow, he had already thought about what to say while eating, and when the time came, he would make up nonsense, and there were reporters on the scene, and he would be famous this time. However, Li Ji also had a small request, which made Wang Qi not too happy, tomorrow Li Ji wanted him to give a lesson to the students, after all, Yan Buwen was a very successful businessman, maybe there was something special that benefited the students a lot.

Wang Qi didn't want to agree, but it could be regarded as a foundation for the press conference the day after tomorrow, and he also tasted the taste of the speech. Li Ji has seen many speeches by many people, and the students are hoarse and exhausted themselves to give speeches on the streets, and then they swarm to the government compound and are killed by machine gun fire. There are also many commanders who lead the troops, many times they preach at the gate of the government, there are many people coming and going, and how many reporters use cameras to take pictures. At that time, Wang Qi didn't think that those students, the commander's speech was good, and if he replaced himself, he might not be worse than them.

Thinking of this, Wang Qi made a request to Li Ji: "At that time, there must be no less than three reporters in the newspaper, and I will do a good job of publicizing your affairs, after all, this is a good thing for the country and the people." ”

Li Ji nodded and said, "Of course, of course." "This archaeological research, if successful, will leave a very huge treasure in the back.

Li Ji can also understand Wang Qi's thoughts, he is a businessman, of course, unlike them who are rigid-minded scholars, they want to pursue fame and fortune, at least let their investments get a good reputation. Therefore, Li Ji can fully understand Wang Qi's request, isn't he just a reporter, anyway, Wang Qi didn't say how big a newspaper is, today I went to inform the three small newspapers I knew, and then sent some reporters to come over that day, so that Wang Qi could be beautiful, and Wang Qi was happy, and the investment would not be worried.

Just like the president or those military leaders, everywhere you go, you have to pay attention to pomp and circumstance, and the pomp is in place, and everything is easy to say.

Li Ji is still a scholar by nature, and he doesn't want to do this kind of flattering thing, and he doesn't disdain to do it, but what if he bows his head for his own archaeological plan? What about stuttering? Li Ji was noncommittal, although he couldn't blow flowers out of his mouth, his actual actions should move Yan Buwen.

After Wang Qi left, Li Ji immediately went to the office and contacted several newspapers by phone, promising a little benefit and asking them to help the day after tomorrow.

……

On the other side, in a small bookstore, Yu Wan was flipping through the books, but after a while, he turned to a magazine, and then knocked on Yan Buwen next to him: "Hey, look, isn't this a magazine published by your newspaper, why is there one in Beijing?" ”

"Judging from the issue number, it was printed in the south and then taken to Beijing." Yan Buwen glanced at it and said. The market in the north is complex, there are many newspapers, but very little money. I originally wanted to eat both the north and the south, but the funds were not enough, and the steps should not be too big, anyway, now in the southern provinces, there are already 30 branches of Xinglong newspapers. The entire southern market is under strict control, and the industry basically occupies six or seven percent of the share. In particular, "Zero Point" martial arts, "Galaxy Science Fiction", and a romance magazine are very popular, and it can be said that as long as you like it in the south, you know these three magazines and newspapers with the same origin.

"Why don't you open a newspaper office in Beijing, according to the popularity of your magazines and newspapers, it should be very profitable." Yu Wan excitedly took this magazine, which was selected from the martial arts of "Zero Point", as well as several short science fiction articles of "Galaxy Science Fiction". Each story is very exciting, and Yu Wan directly indulged in it. Look at this issue is the annual edition printed a year ago, very late, a good book can be seen for a long time.

Yan Buwen said with a smile, this question is the same as asking why a company is not listed, there must be a reason: "The main reason is money, the second reason is that the northern market is not so easy to enter, the culture of the north and the south is different, and it is easy to cause unexpected problems if you rush in, and you need to slowly invade the northern market after the south is stable." And there's an important reason for that. ”

Yan Buwen stretched out his hand, took the magazine in Yu Wan's hand, Yu Wan screamed, and then looked at Yan Buwen angrily. Yan Buwen took the magazine, looked at himself, and said with a smile: "The grapes that can't be eaten are sweet." ”

Yu Wan understood the meaning of Yan Buwen's words: "You businessmen are really hypocritical, you don't make money if you have money." ”

"If you don't buy it, don't turn it over, this one is a dollar." At this time, the boss came over and saw that these two people had only flipped through books and not bought books from the time they came in just now to the present, and this kind of reading books in vain made the boss very bored, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and came to drive away these two people.

Yu Wan said: "Who said I wouldn't buy it, give it, a piece of ocean." Yu Wan threw a dollar on the table, and went out with the magazine in his arms.
