The emergence of the Ming Times filled the gap in the life of the people in the Ming Dynasty for information acquisition, and also gave many people a platform to obtain honorary status and guide public opinion.

In the palace of the Forbidden City, Wang Zhen's face was gloomy, and the cold sweat on his son Wang Li, who was accompanying him, couldn't stop flowing down.

"Damn, this He Wenyuan criticized the Zhongguan policy I participated in, his son is so rude to me, the bullshit Daming Times, dare to write about Liu Lian on the side, the Queen Mother has long been dissatisfied with me, thanks to the emperor's protection, our family can be safe, Li Yi must die before the end of February, can't let him get out of prison safely, Wang Li is my son, do you understand?"

Wang Zhen turned around and stared at Wang Li, Wang Li suddenly felt a feeling of being seen through, and there was a faint incontinence below, so he quickly replied:

"The son understands, and the son will give the order to go down, and the gods will definitely not know it."

"Hahaha! Wang Zhen's laughter echoed in this room, Wang Li knelt down and knocked his head with a bang, closed the door and walked out, Wang Li who came out looked down and saw that it was indeed wet below.

In the first month, at the beginning of the year, He Qiaoxin was already ten years old.

After a month, the sales volume of Daming Times was sold out in a blowout every issue, which is still under the premise that each issue is tripling the printing volume. The price of each price of Daming Times is fifteen wen, excluding the middle price difference and printing costs, plus the advertising costs of the stores in each place, excluding the manuscript fees and the expenses of the employees of the Daming Times Publishing House and the next operating costs, not counting a fraction, this December He Qiaoxin will receive a net of 108,000 taels of silver, and then divide the division of labor of these participating stores in the capital, He Qiaoxin also has 5,000 taels of silver left.

When boxes of snowflakes and silver were carried into the He Mansion, the He Mansion was a sensation up and down, these three young masters were not only unparalleled in literary talent, but even the ability to make money was rare in the world.

The treasury where gold and silver treasures are stored in the house was expanded and renovated at the insistence of He Qiaoxin at the end of last month, but five thousand taels of silver were placed in the treasury, which brought a lot of shock to the He family of five, and even He Qiaoxin himself did not expect that it would be like this, and the newspaper would be so popular in Daming, it is conceivable that the medium of information dissemination by ancient people is simply the same.

Locked the door of the warehouse, and instructed He San to do the next thing, which was nothing more than to burn money and continue to expand the printing speed and output of the newspaper. And began to buy land around the capital and build his own printing workshop.

On the side of the Daming Times Publishing House, basically He San doesn't care anymore, He Qiaoxin has been in operation for less than two days, and He San is not allowed to participate, and He San's focus is not only to continue to serve as the housekeeper of He Fu, but also to be responsible for the financial exchange between the publishing house and the merchants who participated in it before. Every day, He Qiaoxin returned to the punctual time for breakfast, and came to work in an office designed by He Qiaoxin in the publishing house building.

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, He San came to the office of He Qiaoxin, the publishing house. Holding a map, pointing to a location in Tong County, He San pointed with a pole while reporting to He Qiaoxin.

"Boss, the land has been bought, the building materials and construction personnel are also ready, just wait for your order, we can start building Qiaoxin Printing Factory."

Although I don't know why the third young master calls himself what new word "boss" he calls him, not the third young master, but He San changed his words very quickly for the sake of five taels of silver, so that it has become a habit in the past month, and it may not be for the five taels of silver.

He Qiaoxin nodded, glanced at the map, this land is not small, enough for the early construction of the factory, and Tongxian is not far from the capital, in later generations, this is also the capital, or the city center of the capital.

"Let's start work, according to what I said, don't be afraid to burn money, the more money you have, the more you will earn later."

Although He San is heartbroken, he is just a subordinate who obeys orders to work, although now five taels of silver a month is five times that of the old man's Yulu, but these are all given by the boss, and the boss's words have to be listened to.

"Yes, boss!"

After speaking, he replied and said goodbye, He Qiaoxin waved his hand, He San closed the door of the office, and slowly walked to the door of the publishing house without hurrying.

In the palace, Empress Dowager Zhang was full of anger, and what she was holding in her hand was the latest issue of the Daming Times, which contained comments on Liu Lian, which were to the point, and also pointed out that behind Liu Lian was the emperor's eunuch companion Wang Zhen in the palace.

In the past two years, the Empress Dowager Zhang has heard a lot of news about Wang Zhen's meddling in national affairs and participating in court affairs, and the reason why the Empress Dowager Zhang is directly angry this time is that at the end of last month, the Empress Dowager Zhang sent Wang Zhen to the cabinet to ask about things, Yang Shiqi and other cabinet elders did not make a proposal, and Wang Zhen made a decision without authorization, which made Yang Shiqi angry and did not come out at home for three days, and finally the emperor even came forward to mediate and bewitch the king.

Seeing what was written in the newspaper, Empress Dowager Zhang's face was gloomy, her expression was fierce, after four dynasties, this was the first eunuch who dared to get involved in the government, again and again, she must not tolerate it, and when she came back to her senses, Empress Dowager Zhang turned around and sat on the couch.

In a blink of an eye, it has come to the end of the first month, the foundation of the Qiaoxin printing plant in Tongxian County has been laid, according to He Qiaoxin's design, the construction personnel have to scratch their heads every time, and they have finished looking for how to meet He Qiaoxin's requirements.

After the completion of the Qiaoxin Printing Factory, such a large-scale printing workshop, the north can not need other printing workshops, and even when everything is on the right track, it can also take on some other books and other printing work.

He San stood behind He Qiaoxin, He Qiaoxin took the layout of the factory, looked at it for a while, turned around, it was the cold season of winter, the sky was snowing, He Qiaoxin looked at He San and said:

"Third uncle, I know that winter construction is more difficult, slower, but the timing is not waiting for anyone, this group of businesses and those printing workshops that cooperate with us are not easy, the speed of earning silver in the Ming Times has made them red, my net income this month took out a fraction of the construction of this gang, the remaining integer eight thousand seven hundred taels of silver Uncle you put it away, you go on a business trip, go to the south to find four excellent locations, also build a printing plant, before the end of this year, all printing plants I want to put into production, In the future, all my income for half a year will be burned, don't be afraid to spend money, hire more craftsmen, hire more students, you start to do it immediately, don't do the housekeeper's work in the house, I will tell my father to find someone to do it for you. ”

He San's face was solemn, he watched the third young master grow up since he was a child, and he had never seen the third young master so serious and solemn, knowing that this was a big deal, otherwise everything would be empty, like a dream bubble, and he made a wedding dress for others.

"Okay, boss!"

He Qiaoxin suddenly remembered something, turned around again, looked at He San and asked, "Third Uncle, have you been beaten by the third aunt recently?" ”

He San smiled bitterly in his heart, if it weren't for you, I would have been kicked out of bed twice in three days, and beaten at two ends in three days.

"Occasionally, occasionally, hehe!"

"Uh, that, third uncle! This is a difficult task, your monthly silver will be changed to twenty taels of silver per month, I will be very accountable, I will go first. ”

After speaking, He Qiaoxin hurriedly left, muttering in his heart as he walked, sin and sin, give you more money, don't hate me.

Seeing He Qiaoxin leave in a hurry, He San's face was sad or not, nor was he smiling, and he had mixed feelings in his heart for a while, now that he thinks about it, it was good to lock the door at the beginning, but now that it is like this, it is meaningless to lock it or not.

Returned to He Mansion, He Qiaoxin found his father He Wenyuan, and talked about He San's problem, He Wenyuan drank tea, pondering about the matter of the Daming Times, for the housekeeper to change one, then change, after all, there are many old people in He Mansion who are as shrewd and capable as He San, it is this Daming Times that makes He Wenyuan's heart itch.

In the first month, the third son Qiao Xin's net cash register was five thousand taels of silver, and the net cash of the second month was eight thousand seven hundred taels of silver.

With Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, He Wenyuan had a desire for silver for the first time, and now in the court, his colleagues in the same department as him looked at him with awe, and even the adults who were one level higher than him were very polite to him, this was all because of the role of the third son Qiao Xin's money, not to mention the colleagues, they were all red-eyed, and silver was really a good thing.

"Father, do you agree with what the child said?"

He Qiaoxin's voice came back to his senses, and then he remembered what the third son said about changing the housekeeper, waved his hand and said: "Okay, I'll choose one tomorrow, this is a trivial matter, by the way, my birdcage is a little broken, Qiao Xin can you repair it?" ”

He Qiaoxin is a human being, and he understands in an instant, and his father is also a wonderful person!

"That father, the child is not skilled in this craft, so I can only go outside and buy you a few ready-made makeshift for use, and I hope my father will not blame me."

With a smile on his face, He Wenyuan held his son's hand with both hands and said: "Where is it, if it is not repaired, forget it, it is also the intention to buy it, Qiao Xinwuer is filial piety!" ”

He Qiaoxin stayed in He Wenyuan's room for half an hour, after his mother Xu came in, He Qiaoxin greeted his mother Xu, and then hurriedly retired, He Qiaoxin just left, He Wenyuan praised He Qiaoxin's filial piety, Xu has been in charge of He Fu's family for so many years, and has been married to He Wenyuan for so many years, how can he not understand He Wenyuan's thoughts.

"Master, you are really, you are still playing tricks with children."

As he spoke, the index finger of his right hand stretched out and tapped He Wenyuan's forehead, He Wenyuan was at the end of his happiness, this light, instantly ignited the desire in his heart, walked to the door and went out, closed the door, plugged in the door bolt, and half-pushed Xu Shi to the bed......

Everything is in full swing here in Hefu, just waiting for the arrival of spring, but in the palace, there is a storm coming.

In the morning, as soon as Zhu Qizhen finished the early dynasty, he was called to the side hall of the Empress Dowager's dormitory with the cabinet Sanyang, and at the same time, the Empress Dowager Zhang also summoned the British public Zhang Fu and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Hu Ying.

When they arrived at the side hall, Zhu Qizhen and Sanyang saw the eunuch Wang Zhen who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, the two teams of female officials around Empress Dowager Zhang had solemn faces, all wearing swords, and the palace guards guarding the side hall were also standing awe-inspiring.
