Guo Ye drank a glass of water and wine, moistened his throat and eyes, and said his idea of running a newspaper in Chang'an in every detail, and the old guy Gao Shilian and Yu Shinan were stunned for a moment, as if they were whimsical.

The imperial court reported that they had seen a lot, and it was no longer a novelty.

However, the private office newspaper is still such a large-scale preparation, and it will run three copies as soon as it is run, and there is no duplicate.

It was the first time they had heard it, and it was something new and eye-opening.

Gao Shilian stopped the chopsticks in his hand and said suspiciously: "Guo boy, let me ask you, what is the purpose of running this newspaper so vigorously, oh no, what is the purpose of running a newspaper?" ”

Guo Ye took another sip of wine, smashed his mouth twice, and said with a smile: "Master Gao, the so-called teacher, preaching and teaching to solve doubts!" Although newspapers cannot preach and teach the people, they can open up the wisdom of the people! Think about it, if we print and burn the laws of the Tang Dynasty in newspapers from time to time, and then spread them through newspapers to the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, and everyone has a copy, would it be more effective than the notice of the official yamen? At that time, everyone in the people will understand the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty, how dare they easily become traitors? Doesn't the drop in the crime rate promote local law and order and stability? ”

"Also, the newspaper can also print and burn the teachings of the saints, the legacy of the sages, from the hundred family names, the thousand-character text, to the four books and five classics, at least to help the people to read, can greatly reduce the illiteracy rate of the Tang Dynasty, isn't it? What is the great aspiration of a Confucian disciple? Isn't it just to let everyone in the world understand the learning of saints, and all know how to be courteous, righteous, honest, benevolent, filial piety, and bravery? ”

"Of course, for example, if there are any newly issued edicts issued by the imperial court that need to be announced to the world, isn't the newspaper the fastest medium for the people to know?"

Another example is which local official was corrupt and bent the law and was found and imprisoned by Dali Temple. If we publicize it through the newspapers, is it known to the whole world? When the time comes, will the people praise the rulers of my Tang Dynasty? Also, so widely known to the world, do those officials who are willing to be corrupt and pervert the law also have to be jealous in their hearts? At least it can play a deterrent role in knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, right? ”

"For example, a while ago, my Tang warriors fought against the Eastern Turks on the battlefield in Northern Xinjiang and won a complete victory, not only capturing the Eastern Turks Jieli Khan, but also exterminating the Eastern Turks. If the newspapers are so overwhelmingly publicized and known to the whole world, wouldn't that be able to greatly inspire the people of the Tang Dynasty? As soon as the newspaper came out, the people of the Tang Dynasty could always know how heroic my Tang soldiers were in front, how my Tang generals strategized, and how wise and powerful His Majesty was the Tang Dynasty Khan. Isn't this the place where the imperial court and the saints today need it most? ”

Guo Ye talked about the benefits of running a newspaper again, and Gao Shilian smiled when he heard it, and praised it for being good.

However, Yu Shinan's face was quite calm, and he praised it softly: "After you say this, this private newspaper is indeed a good thing. But how much does this newspaper cost? What is your selling price? You must know that ordinary people are more concerned about food, clothing, and housing, and if the price is quite high, I think ordinary people can't afford it. In the end, your newspaper can't be sold, and you can't serve the purpose of circulating among the people, isn't it in vain? “

When Guo Ye heard this, he secretly praised, sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, and he got to the point in one sentence.

However, he already had a plan in his heart, and smiled confidently: "What Lord Saijiu said is not unreasonable. But you don't have to worry about the price, because I didn't think about making money from the newspapers. In other words, the boy's newspaper is basically given away for free. For those in need, I will arrange a special person to deliver it at a fixed point on a regular basis, and I will not receive a penny! ”

"Huh?"

Yu Shinan was shocked and said in surprise: "Guo Ye, you have to think clearly, this Chang'an has a population of nearly one million, even if you sell 100,000 newspapers for free a day, this cost is not something you can afford." ”

"Lord Sacrificial Wine has filtered," Guo Ye waved his hand and said, "At least for half a year, I will not make a profit in the newspaper, I need to use half a year to cultivate the habit of reading newspapers to the people of Chang'an." I only charge them when they can't read the newspaper every day to keep up with the current situation and news. After half a year's investment, the kid can still afford it! Besides, although I won't charge the people for newspapers in the next six months, I can collect fees from traders and merchants? Because in my newspaper, I will leave a page dedicated to advertising for businessmen, traders, and even restaurants, restaurants, and inns, and charge a certain amount of advertising fees. ”

Yu Shinan asked suspiciously: "Advertisement? What does it mean, what does it mean? ”

Guo Ye explained: "It's like a wine festival that you have opened a restaurant, but you need to let more people know that your restaurant is of good quality and low price, and expand its popularity, then you must use some way to achieve the goal." At this time, don't you think that newspapers are born to serve their kind of buying and selling business? ”

"Oh, the old man understands, understands!"

Yu Shinan suddenly realized: "You mean that you use the newspaper to expand his popularity and help him attract more diners to eat." And he, he needs to pay you the corresponding publicity fee, yes or no? ”

Guo Ye nodded, gave a thumbs up and praised: "In the words of the sacrificial wine lord, the kid admires it!" ”

Yu Shinan suddenly laughed and cheered: "Hahaha, yes, yes, each has its own needs, complements each other, your use of the newspaper to advertise is indeed a clever trick, at least it can make your newspaper have income, and it will not operate at a loss." Good, great good! ”

At this time, Gao Shilian was already attracted by the sunrise industry of newspapers, and asked anxiously: "Guo boy, you just took the trouble to explain to us this newspaper thing, it is indeed a good thing." However, what does this have to do with the old man and the old man's imperial historians' supervisors and historians who have earned clean silver? ”

Yu Shinan also nodded after Gao Shilian said this, and asked, "Yes, what does it matter?" ”

Guo Ye said with a smile: "Naturally, it has a relationship, Lord Gao, Yu sacrifice wine, don't be impatient!" ”

After saying that, Guo Ye stood up suddenly, arched his hands and bowed to the two of them, and said sincerely: "Lord Gao, Yu sacrifices wine, the kid wants to invite two respected elders to join the boy's newspaper." From now on, you will be hired as the honorary editor-in-chief of Chang'an Weekly, and Yu Xijiu will be appointed as the honorary editor-in-chief of Chang'an Morning Post. ”

"Uh......"

Gao Yu and the others were at a loss when they saw Guo Ye suddenly come to such a hand.

They all asked in unison: "What is this honorary editor-in-chief?" I've never heard of it! ”

Guo Ye hurriedly explained: "This honorary editor-in-chief hired two respected elders to put their names in our newspaper to help supervise the operation and operation of the newspaper, and often supervise the content of the newspaper to see if there are any remarks that are unfavorable to the imperial court. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

The two of them were definitely interested in the newspaper proposed by Guo Ye, and their eyes were shining.

Guo Ye smiled: "Isn't it that simple? As for the content of the two newspapers, the kid commissioned the two elders to invite your respective subordinates to write cameo, and for each article they wrote, the kid would pay them the corresponding remuneration and pen fee. This is the silver earned by the pen, I think this should be a clean way, and there should be no conflict between the two elders' principles of doing things for the official and treating themselves, right? ”

I see!

Gao Shilian and Yu Shinan glanced at each other, and secretly said to each other in their hearts, it turns out that this kid fought this idea!

However, Guo Ye's invitation really made them unbearable to refuse, because this is indeed a legitimate way to make money, and it can definitely be used to supplement the family and use it with a clear conscience.

Especially Gao Shilian, who was always ridiculed by Yu Shinan as a relative of the emperor, was eager to try, and his heart was very excited, the old man earned this silver for writing articles, and he was above board, look at what you old man Yu still have to say.

Immediately, Gao Shilian took the lead in expressing his position, and responded with a wave of his hand: "Medium!" The old man agreed to your request and became the honorary editor-in-chief of your "Chang'an Weekly". The old man is here for the colleagues of Yushitai, thank you in advance for the generosity of the boy! ”

Guo Ye shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Lord Gao doesn't need to be polite, they write articles, and I pay for paper and pencils, which is very fair." This is all earned according to work, and it is taken justifiably and fairly. Didn't Sage Kong say it? There is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book. I still think I've taken advantage of the money in exchange for the articles of my colleagues! ”

Guo Ye wore such a big high hat, Gao Shilian was already so happy that he couldn't find the north, and nodded again and again in approval: "Well said, according to the income from work, take it justifiably, and take it openly!" ”

Yu Shinan saw that Gao Shilian had already accepted it, so naturally he couldn't be left behind, so he turned around and spread it, and said that he, Yu Shinan, a wine lord, did not seek benefits for his subordinates!

Immediately, he said to Guo Ye: "Guo Ye, since you are so sympathetic to the teachers of the National Prison, how can the old man excuse himself?" Okay, in the future, when the articles in the "Chang'an Morning Post" are written, the old man will let the scholars in the Guozi Prison be responsible, and let them earn some money to supplement the family. ”

Guo Ye bowed to the two of them again, patted his ass and shouted: "The two elders are honest and honest officials, and they are upright all their lives, they are really humble gentlemen, and they are contemporary celebrities!" Boy, admire, admire! ”

For Guo Ye's horses, the two of them should accept them calmly, indeed, it is rare in the officialdom to be as incorruptible as them!

This is the arrogance of their bone-clearing literati, and they are absolutely proud!

Finally, Gao Shilian asked: "Boy, when will your newspaper open?" The old man will definitely give a plaque when he arrives! ”

Yu Shinan also smiled: "That's right, the old man's handwriting is still on the table, and there will be an inscription at that time, and I will send it in person!" ”

Guo Ye was in a very happy mood and replied: "There are about five or six days to prepare, and once the preparations are ready, the two elders will be notified as soon as possible!" ”

"Good, very good!"

The two nodded their heads in agreement.

Guo Ye saw that the sky was almost dark, and wanted to leave.

Yu Shinan was rare and generous, and kept Guo Ye and said: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, you have helped us so much today, you have to have a few drinks before leaving, right?" I'll send someone to buy some more meat, water, and wine, and we'll talk about it again!" ”

Gao Shilian also said: "Right, it's rare that you, the sacrificial wine lord who picks the door, are so generous, Guo boy, you can't help but appreciate it!" ”

Guo Ye had already gotten up, and said again and again: "Please forgive the two adults, now that "Chang'an Weekly" and "Chang'an Morning News" have honorary editors-in-chief, the kid still needs to find a suitable person for the director of "Datang Entertainment Weekly", isn't it?" ”

When the two heard Guo Ye say this, they naturally didn't want to keep it, after all, the newspaper was about to open, and of course it was the first thing to do.

Immediately, the two got up one after another, wanting to send Guo Ye to the gate of the hospital.

a dignified imperial historian, Guo Ye's boss - Gao Shilian;

a dignified wine sacrifice adult, Guo Ye's principal - Yu Shinan;

actually sent Guo Ye to the gate of the courtyard in person, Guo Ye was walking in front, and secretly shouted in his heart, he was really fucking flattered!

Soon, he left Yu Shinan's small courtyard, left Guozijian, and went to another place to find the suitable person in his heart, who was in charge of the editor-in-chief of "Datang Entertainment Weekly". , the home of reading! Unique URL:
