Chapter 171: Someone from the East Palace

"Alright, I'll talk about the treatment!"

Lan Bin ignored the reactions of Wu Junbo and the others, and continued: "I'm a vulgar person, I don't like to talk about fiction, I like to talk about reality."

"After you join Daming Daily, each of you will have ten taels of silver per month. There are other benefits on holidays. As for what the benefits are, it's random."

"What do you think?"

"I'm okay!" Wu Junbo was the first among the crowd and said a little excitedly.

Among the people, he is the oldest, has the most experience, and has seen the most thoroughly, knowing that the world is big, and he has not filled his stomach the most.

Otherwise, he would not agree to Zhu Chun's solicitation and follow Lan Bin, who is notorious among scholars.

Now Lan Bin's moon silver is higher than that of a seventh-grade official moon and silver capital, so how dissatisfied he is.

The situation of Zheng Fei and others is similar to that of Wu Junbo, although they are still a little unable to wipe their face and are ashamed to talk about profits, but some people take the lead, and they all put down their faces and echo them.

"Since you're okay, it's decided!"

Lan Bin smiled and said, "Tomorrow, you will come to Lanfu to report, sign a contract, and give you a pre-job training by the way."

Pre-job training?!

Wu Junbo and the others all had a flash of doubt in their hearts, but they were too embarrassed to ask more, so they all nodded and agreed.

After talking about the matter, Lan Bin and Wu Junbo and others exchanged pleasantries, and let the restaurant serve the food.

It's just that Wu Junbo and the others are not familiar with Lan Bin, and they have a little bit of readability, plus the status of the two sides is very different. As a result, there were few words during the banquet, and the atmosphere was relatively dull.

Not long after the meal, Wu Junbo and others saluted and retired one after another.

After they left, Lan Bin looked at Zhu Chun and thanked, "Brother-in-law, thank you for this incident!"

"Brother Bin, it's serious, this is what I should do!" Zhu Chun smiled.

"Alright, let's go back!"

Lan Bin didn't continue to be polite with Zhu Chun, looked at the sky, and beckoned Zhu Chun and Zhu Xiongying to go out of the private room together and come to the outside of the restaurant.

Although Zhu Xiongying had just eaten, he was still thinking about the woman's duck blood vermicelli soup, and when he arrived outside the restaurant, he pointed to the woman's stall not far away: "Cousin, let's try her duck blood vermicelli soup in the past."

"You just ate so much, and you haven't eaten enough?" Lan Bin teased.

"Let's go!"

Zhu Xiongying's little face was slightly red, and he dragged Lan Bin to the woman's stall, smelled the fragrance permeating the stall, and said happily, "Bring me a bowl of duck blood vermicelli soup."

"Wait, little guest officer!"

The busy woman glanced at Zhu Xiongying, and after serving the duck blood vermicelli soup that had been scooped in her hand to the guests in front of her, she scooped a bowl of duck blood vermicelli soup for Zhu Xiongying, beckoned Zhu Xiongying to sit down at an empty table, and put the duck blood vermicelli soup in front of Zhu Xiongying.

Zhu Xiongying took a sip of duck blood vermicelli soup with anticipation, and his eyes lit up: "It's delicious, cousin, you can have a bowl too!"

"No, you can drink it!" Lan Bin shook his head.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Chun, who was accompanying him, and beckoned, "Uncle Eleven, do you want a bowl!"

"Eat! Leave me alone!" Zhu Chun said euphemistically.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Lan Bin and the others, but they didn't want to say more, and concentrated on eating the bowl of duck blood vermicelli soup in his hand, and patted his swollen stomach: "This duck blood vermicelli soup is so delicious, if I can't eat it, I still want to eat a bowl!"

"If you think it's delicious, I'll bring you next time!!" Lan Bin said with a smile.

Zhu Xiongying's eyes lit up and said, "Cousin, this is what you said, next time Xiu Mu and I come to you, you will bring me again!"

"Good! It's decided!"

Lan Bin smiled, called the woman, paid the money, pulled Zhu Xiongying, beckoned Zhu Chun to go back to the restaurant, took the carriage when he came up, and returned to the Lan Mansion. ……

The next day, Wu Junbo and others arrived at Lan Mansion as promised, and Lan Bin asked Lan Wu to draw up a contract, and after Wu Junbo and others signed it, they began to conduct pre-job training.

The training content is mainly focused on the scope of daily newspaper coverage,

Manuscript review, news gathering, etc.

This time, considering the difficulties in understanding Wu Junbo and others, Lan Bin explained in an easy-to-understand way as much as possible during the training, and he was very detailed.

In this way, Wu Junbo and others have a deeper understanding of Lan Bin's thoughts and Daming Daily.

After Lan Bin trained Wu Junbo and others for two days, he gave Wu Junbo and others the task of writing manuscripts, asking them to use vernacular to comment on the imperial court's trial of commercial taxation in Yingtianfu, with no limit on the number of words.

Although Wu Junbo and others didn't understand why Lan Bin asked to use the vernacular, they did not resist the manuscript task arranged by Lan Bin, especially after two days of contact, they all found that Lan Bin was not as unbearable as it was rumored outside.

On the contrary, he is kind and kind, without the slightest arrogance of noble children. There are even some who are glad that no one is willing to accept the invitation of Zhu Chun, the king of Shu.

Otherwise, not only did he miss the job of Gao Yueyin given by Lan Bin, but also missed the opportunity to make friends with the prince and grandson.

So, they honestly followed Lan Bin's requirements, and each wrote an article, focusing on the vernacular of the imperial court's trial of commercial taxation, and handed it to Lan Bin.

Before Lan Bin didn't read the strategy of Wu Junbo and others, he was still a little expectant, but when he read their strategy, he was really disappointed, their strategy seemed to be wonderfully written, gorgeous, in fact, there was nothing to say, and because of the corresponding Tianfu trial of commercial taxation, he did not know enough.

I don't know the advantages and disadvantages of the trial commercial tax, and the part of the trial commercial tax is described by personal conjecture.

Fortunately, Lan Bin also knew that Wu Junbo and the others were not well-known, almost all of them were famous, and he didn't expect much from them. So after reading their strategy, I didn't comment in public.

It was just three days for them to go back and visit the streets according to the content of Lan Bin's training, observe the trial collection of commercial tax, and so on.

Let him write a comment on the trial of commercial taxation three days later.

The reason why Lan Bin arranged it this way was not only to let Wu Junbo and others practice the training content, learn news gathering, press article writing, etc., but also to prepare for the first release of Daming Daily.

That's right, in order to be the first issue of Daming Daily and be a hit, he is ready to make a fuss about the current hot commercial tax trial in Nanjing and the city to attract the attention of readers.

After Lan Bin arranged Wu Junbo and others, he asked Lan Wu to buy a courtyard in the city, and as the headquarters of Daming Daily, he successively recruited a group of printing craftsmen.

In addition, he also asked Lan Wu to find craftsmen to create movable type printing plates for later use.

At present, movable type printing has been studied, but there are various problems with the wood, copper, and tin used in movable type printing before the introduction of lead movable type.

Therefore, the current mainstream printing technology is still based on engraving.

Newspapers not only need to be printed in large quantities, but the content of each edition is different, and the engraving is obviously not enough to meet the needs of newspapers, so movable type printing can only be used.

On this day, Lan Bin and Lan Wu were discussing the preparations for the Daming Daily in the study, and on Thursday they pushed the door and entered: "Young Master, someone from the East Palace is here!"
