456 The princess is the east
"Shopkeeper Zhang, you are so righteous to send me these good papers in person, and give me such a favorable price, you can rest assured, the second issue of Chang'an Daily will be done according to our consultation, as soon as it is printed, I will immediately send you a copy for you to palm." Old Master Gu said to an old man wearing a square merchant hat with a grateful face.
As soon as the Chang'an newspaper came out, the big paper in supply suddenly exceeded demand, leading to "Chang'an paper is expensive", Lao Gu just wanted people to go to Luozhou to purchase, but he didn't expect that the Yuan shopkeeper of Chang'an Yuan's paper workshop really personally sent thirty knives (one knife and a thousand sheets), which suddenly solved Lao Gu's urgent need, and naturally he was enthusiastic.
"Okay, Gu Shopkeeper, free of charge, please stay." The shopkeeper Yuan was polite to Lao Gu, and then took the slave to prolong.
"Old Master Gu, you're busy entertaining?" After bidding farewell to the shopkeeper of Yuan's paper mill, Master Gu just wanted to turn around and return to the museum, but he didn't expect a familiar voice to suddenly sound next to him.
Turning his head to look, I don't know when there was a group of people next to him, among which there were two people standing in the front, a man and a woman, the handsome man and the pretty woman, as if made in heaven, the old master Gu's body was excited, and he hurriedly walked up and saluted: "The owner, the princess, why are you here?" ”
"Go in and say." After Liu Yuan finished speaking, he made a gesture of invitation to Li Lizhen and asked her to go first.
Who called her a noble status?
People come and go here, and it's not good to see that chatting with a businessman, although Liu Yuan doesn't care, but the princess cares.
Entering the newspaper hall, Li Li asked suspiciously, "Who was that just now?" ”
Master Gu hurriedly responded: "Back to the princess's words, it is the Yuan shopkeeper of Chang'an Yuan's paper mill, knowing that our Chang'an newspaper is nervous about paper, and took the initiative to send thirty dollars of high-quality four-open paper, and the price is also very cheap, only half of the market price." ”
"There is no such thing as a free lunch. This shopkeeper Yuan is so generous, I'm afraid he has something else to ask for, right? Liu Yuan asked lightly.
"The proprietor is shrewd, and the shopkeeper Yuan only requires that all newspapers be indicated in the Chang'an Daily, and they are all produced by Yuan's Paper Mill." The old master hurriedly replied: "The owner said, but if there is any benefit, as long as it is not excessive, the small one can be used as appropriate, this paper is tight, and it is not very convenient to purchase from Luozhou." He was also a charcoal in the snow, and besides, the price was cheap, so he made up his mind to allow him. ”
Liu Yuan nodded and said, "His request is not excessive, since I let you deal with it." You have a bold idea. ”
"Yes, host."
Li Lizhi sighed and said, "I didn't expect it." Someone came to the door so quickly. Add a few words, and the cost is reduced, which also means that we have won an extra bit. ”
The old master smiled and said, "Princess, it's not all, Chengdong Quxiang Bakery." I am willing to spend ten taels of silver to advertise, Qizhen Xuan is willing to spend twenty taels for promotion, and Lao Hu soup noodle restaurant wants to spend two taels of silver to promote it, right. There are two more companies that are interested, but they are only in the contact stage. ”
"Ten taels plus twenty taels, isn't that thirty taels? Well, there are two taels, and there are thirty-two taels here, which are worth thousands of newspapers, amazing, have you collected all the silver? Li Lizhi said excitedly.
"Only 30% of the deposit was collected, and the proprietor said that even if it was to spend money on advertising, it was necessary to send someone to investigate their reputation and credibility, and they could not agree casually, otherwise, the credibility of the newspaper would also decline, and they could not lose a lot because of a small loss."
Master Gu continued: "Of course, if they want to make false advertisements and deliberately deceive, then the 30% deposit will not be refunded. ”
Li Lizhi looked at Liu Yuan with a little surprise, and there was a hint of admiration in her eyes: it was so prosperous at the beginning, and it will definitely be unlimited in the future, and Liu Yuan seems to have calculated early on that someone will use this newspaper to promote, and even the guidelines have been set, so the vision is not ordinary.
Liu Yuan nodded and said: "Well done, fine water can flow for a long time, you can't be blind, is there anything else to report?" ”
"Yes, the owner, now I have received more than 6,300 orders from Chang'an Daily, by the way, a Shanxi Chamber of Commerce, want to negotiate with you, they want to monopolize the distribution of Chang'an Daily, the price is negotiable."
"There's no need to discuss" Liu Yuan said categorically: "Refuse directly, he can spend money to advertise, but he must not let others lead us by the nose." ”
The shrewdness of this ancient businessman has exceeded Liu Yuan's expectations, and only the first issue has been published, and these businessmen have already smelled the business opportunity, so they started so quickly, and it should not be underestimated.
"Yes, host." Old Master Gu hurriedly responded.
After answering, the old master hesitated for a moment, lowered his voice and said: "Owner, someone wants to publish an article in Chang'an Daily, if we agree, he is willing to support three hundred taels of silver, you see ......."
It's amazing, so soon someone wants to change the name with silver, but think about it, even the emperor reads the newspaper, those princes and ministers will naturally follow suit, now in addition to doing well in the exam, under the selection of the nine products in the system, but also to find a powerful person to recommend, this can go further, spend money to invest in an article, if the noble person takes a fancy to it, it will immediately soar.
Three hundred taels, a huge amount of money, it seems that if you meet a rich child who is rich and courageous, of course, it may also be that you may hire someone to write and spend money to earn fame.
After a deep groan, Liu Yuan shook his head and said: "Push, now it is on the rise, the foundation is unstable, and digging the foot of the wall is self-defeating." ”
"Yes, boss, I'll push him off right away." Lao Gu said respectfully.
"Alright, let's get started." Liu Yuan nodded, and then spoke.
Where the work is, the sooner it starts, the sooner it will be completed.
………
As long as you concentrate on work, time flies very fast, unconsciously, most of the day has passed, and when Liu Yuan woke up, it was past lunch time in the morning, and his stomach was growling, and Liu Yuan realized that he had not eaten lunch yet.
In fact, the palace maid next to Li Lizhen mentioned her a few times just now, and Li Lizhen waved her hand to interrupt, this princess usually looks gentle and skillful, but when she gets to work, she really has a ruthlessness, which Liu Yuan also secretly admires.
"Princess, now that you're almost done, just leave the rest to Master Gu to deal with, just check it again tomorrow, I'm hungry now, it's better for Liu to be a host." Invite the princess to a light meal, I don't know what the princess thinks? ”
"No" Li Lizhen categorically refused, but as soon as the voice changed, she immediately smiled and said: "It should be Changle Zuodong, please invite General Liu to have a light meal." ”
"What, you invited me?" Liu Yuan was a little frightened, a beautiful princess invited herself to dinner, which was really unexpected.
Li Lizhi said a little embarrassedly: "Chang'an is booming, Changle is in a mess, and I just want to do my best as quickly as possible." The first preparation took nearly ten days, and we also planned to send one issue in ten years and three issues in a month, but this time Changle did not discuss with you in advance, and made a claim that it would be completed in three days. This is too difficult for strong people. ”
"I saw General Liu's tired face today. Both eye circles were dark. I heard the maid say, in order to cooperate with Changle's progress, Liu Yuan, you have not slept all night, you have so many things to do on weekdays, and you have to train Yangwei Army, it is too hard and tiring. Next time, Changle will definitely not be so arrogant, so no matter what, this time I will let Changle be the east. It's an apology. ”
Liu Yuan let out a long sigh of relief.
I acted like a dog last night, obviously beautiful at the moment, in order to cooperate with Li Liqin's plan, I couldn't hold back, I don't know how many times I scolded Li Liqin in my heart, and I was secretly planning whether to throw them off and do it alone, after all, no matter how much money you make, it is not as important as your body.
However, Li Li is a princess, not only took the initiative to admit her mistake, but also offered to invite her to dinner as an apology, and the resentment in Liu Yuan's heart disappeared all of a sudden.
"Princess, you can't say that, you're also for work" Liu Yuan was embarrassed: "I'll invite you." ”
Liu Yuan is working hard at the same time, Li Lizhen is also working hard, Liu Yuan is only responsible for writing a few drafts, but Li Lizhi in addition to writing articles, but also looking for those celebrities and Confucians to ask for manuscripts, from her finding the main book of the Ministry of Rites to write the manuscript, and personally come to the door to get the manuscript It can be seen that she has not paid as much as Liu Yuan, on the contrary, there is more work and tiredness.
A woman can do this, Liu Yuan is embarrassed to make excuses.
Liu Yuan shook his head and said: "Princess, the three-day period is actually not frequent, Chang'an City has a population of hundreds of thousands of people, and there are countless things that happen every day, there are a total of 360 states in Datang, and every day is to write a state, we can also publish a newspaper every day, but we are just starting out, we have to do everything ourselves, wait for us to find the right people, recruit more people, and hand over these things to them to do, and publish new newspapers every day, we will supervise on the side, so that we can withdraw and not be so tired."
Li Lizhi was a little surprised: "Can this work?" Can they do it? ”
"I can't do it, take my time" Liu Yuan said with a smile: "My goal is to do nothing, just sit and wait for the silver." ”
Liu Yuanyi said that Li Lizhi also felt that she didn't look like a princess recently, she was busy every morning and dark, just sleeping on the Hu bed, and her mind was full of things about Chang'an News, and she was a little crazy.
"Well, that's fine, but do you have the right person?
Liu Yuan had a thin, indifferent figure with a little pride in his mind, and then remembered the nickname of "Dr. Eight Bricks", and couldn't help but smile: "I haven't found anyone yet, but there is one that is quite interesting, I look good, keep it for observation." ”
"It turns out that you have been thinking about it for a long time, so it's okay, Changle is waiting for your good news."
Liu Yuan made a gesture of invitation to Princess Changle, and said with a smile: "Okay, princess, please." ”
Princess Changle paused for a moment, then frowned and said, "What are you doing?" ”
"Princess, didn't you say you were going to be the east? What's the matter, stingy with that little money? Liu Yuan said with a smile.
Li Liyuan smiled and said jokingly: "That's not going to happen, the business of Jinghua Study is good these days, and Changle can be regarded as a small profit, General Liu will be a little more when he arrives, don't be polite to Changle." ”
"Of course, the princess has a treat, it's rare" Liu Yuan snapped his fingers and said, "I'm not polite." (To be continued......)
