Xu Yuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Liang Lun sending the article in a hurry. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "You are too anxious, and the preparations for the newspaper have not yet been completed." ”

"It would be better to send it earlier." Liang Lun said, and Xiao Liu, who was following him next to him, kept smirking.

"By the way, we have this front page, so do you know any other literati, and these other articles are also wanted." Xu Yuandao. This can make Liang Lun difficult, what annoys him the most today is these literati, how can he have such friends. There was no way, this matter had to be left to Xu Yuan to find a way.

Liang Lun called Xiao Liu, "Give the money to Brother Xu." Xiao Liu hurriedly handed a cloth bag to Xu Yuan. Liang Lun said: "Here is a thousand taels of silver, but almost all of my net worth." Xu Yuan said: "I can almost spend 1,000 taels on my account, so just like that, we will each contribute 1,000 taels, and the income will be divided into 55." "Okay, okay."

"Brother Xu, what are you going to do today?" Liang Lun asked.

"You go and solve the article matter first, for example, go to those colleges to have some benefits, let those teachers write articles, and they will definitely do such a showy thing as writing articles. I took a good look at a piece of land in Wenqing Lane yesterday, and it was a quiet place, just right for a newspaper. "Xu Yuandao, there are more literati in Wenqing Lane, not far from Huining Academy, close to the Confucian Temple, there are many literati, so naturally there are some things that look down on those noisy businessmen, so it is relatively quiet over there, and it is very convenient to receive and sell newspapers.

"Brother Xu, I'm in a hurry to go out, and I haven't even eaten, so it's better to eat at your place." Liang Lun said, he couldn't help but be a little greedy when he saw the dishes that the bell was holding. Xu Yuan had no reason to refuse, and took him to the dining room. instructed Su Jun to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and then sat down with Liang Lun. Liang Lun has never seen most of these dishes, and it is no wonder that a few days ago, Xu Yuangang taught Wu Ma the cooking technique of "stir-frying", and the food made was naturally refreshing to Liang Lun, a native of the Great Zhou.

"Drinking?" Xu Yuan bought a lot of wine yesterday to brew some high-grade wine, but he hadn't started to do it yet, so he had to do a good job of the newspaper in front of him first.

"If you don't drink it, you have to go to the academy later, it's too embarrassing to get drunk." These words made Xu Yuangao look at him several times, and Liang Lun was quite thoughtful when he thought about things.

Liang Lun smiled and called out to Su Jun to say hello to his sister-in-law, and then began to eat vegetables, he swore that he had never eaten a dish like this. He praised while eating: "No wonder Brother Xu's natural residence business is so good, I see, even the immortal residence is not as good as your ordinary side dishes." Xu Yuan smiled, he hadn't sold stir-fried vegetables in the middle of the natural center, but only added seven or eight special dishes with characteristics, and the business was already very hot. The stir-fry of later generations, in this big week, is really a bug-like existence.

Liang Lun is also a little funny, to say that Ling'er was a little afraid of him at the beginning, but after getting acquainted with it, he can already talk and laugh.

Before leaving, Liang Lun also said that he would come and sit often in the future. Bell couldn't help laughing, isn't this the invitation of the master's family? Is it really good for guests to be so naturally acquainted? Su Jun didn't ask what Xu Yuan had done in the past two days, and she and Ling Bell had also stayed at home for the past two days, playing backgammon and embroidering.

Xu Yuan arrived at the Yipin Teahouse, and the guy hurriedly greeted him: "Xu Gongzi is here, and our shopkeeper said that as soon as you come, we will let you go to the backyard to find him." Xu Yuan nodded and walked towards the backyard, when Lao Zhao was on stage and ready to speak, fiddling with the things on the table. Seeing Xu Yuan walking by, he nodded at him and gestured to say hello.

When he saw Jin Fugui, he still looked smiling. "Shopkeeper Jin, have you found the person I wanted?" Xu Yuan said, he was not polite, pulled up a chair and sat down. "Now I drink tea outside, there are two of them, according to your requirements, I was originally a scholar, but later I turned to a small business."

The two came in, one was wearing a blue robe, a little thin, and the other was dressed in a short shirt, and the skeleton was so strong that he could no longer see the appearance of a scholar. The cyan robe is called Du Ai, and the short shirt is called Liu Liang. After knowing his name, Xu Yuan said: "I lack a shopkeeper here, and I need some literary people to do things for me, I call this shopkeeper the editor-in-chief." So I'm going to test you on two things, one is literary talent, and the other is keen vision. ”

Liu Liang said: "The owner wants to sell manuscripts and books? "It's not. Tell us about yourself first. ”

"I am from Huining, and my family originally relied on my parents to sell tofu for me to study, but I fell short twice, and now I am just a showman. Seeing that my family was already in great difficulty, I gave up my studies and started a small business. "Liu Liangdao." Oh, so what are you doing now? "I went to the nearby mountains to collect some tea leaves, and then sold them in the teahouse here, and the golden shopkeeper is also my guest." "How much money can you make in a month." "It's hard to say, it's forty taels at most, and more than a dozen taels, which can be regarded as barely surviving."

"Then why did you come to be the treasurer of my house?" Du Ai said: "Brother Liu and I are just to stop being looked at by others, we have been running a business for a few years, and it is more than enough to be a shopkeeper." "To tell you the truth, I'm going to run a newspaper, so I need readers to sift through the manuscripts, I don't know if you are willing to help me." "Newspapers? Doesn't the imperial court have an official newspaper, I don't know what newspaper you sell in this newspaper? Liu Liang said.

"You'll know when the manuscript is received, and I'll take you to the newspaper now." Xu Yuan got up, making the two of them a little stunned, the owner was too anxious, and before he could say a few words, he was going to the newspaper office.

When they heard Xu Yuanyan's remuneration of fifty taels a month, the two were a little incredulous. "Don't the proprietor deceive our brothers? Fifty taels a month, and only those old shopkeepers can be paid so highly. Liu Liang said. He was right, Lao Yang, who lived like a natural home, was only sixty taels a month, and now it has only risen to one hundred taels.

"Don't worry, the money will be indispensable to the two of you at that time. Here are three hundred taels, I have already negotiated the rent of the house with the master, and the workers will come over later, and you two are fully responsible for everything, Liu Liang, you are responsible for some trivial matters of the newspaper, and Du Ai, you are responsible for reviewing. I want our newspaper to be on the street the day after tomorrow. After telling the two of them some trivial things, Xu Yuan let them go to work.

Xu Yuan has to use these two people, they still have the ability, as for the character, it is difficult to say this kind of thing. On the way here, Xu Yuan talked to Deng Ai, Du Ai was indeed a little talented back then, even if he is a businessman now, he still remembers poetry and books, but he is unwilling to be a bitter scribe, and there is no official relationship at home, so he became a businessman. Jin Fugui said that someone wanted to invite a shopkeeper who had read books, which made him think. When I heard Xu Yuan say that the draft of the first issue of the newspaper had been decided, it was written by Mr. Xie. This surprised the two, it was not ordinary people who could invite Mr. Xie.

It still takes a lot of troublesome steps for a newspaper to start from scratch, what movable type, ink barrel purchase, recruitment of craftsmen, and yard cleaning are also a bit of a headache. But fortunately, Zhao Qi, who Xu Yuan knew, had several small printing workshops at home, Xu Yuan went to recruit more than a dozen workers yesterday, Zhao Qi asked him what he was going to do, and Xu Yuan told him truthfully, but he didn't say anything about Liang Lun. Obviously, Zhao Qi didn't expect Xu Yuan to make money with this newspaper, how much money these newspapers could sell, and persuaded Xu Yuan to invest his efforts in the natural residence, you must know that the current natural residence is already a weapon for absorbing money. Xu Yuan didn't defend either, just let him wait and see.

"What's the name of this newspaper, owner?" Liu Liang asked.

"It's called Zhihu." Xu Yuan smiled slightly.
