Chapter 199: The Newspaper Sells Big
Hearing this, Zheng Chang's eyes widened, "County Lord, what do you mean?" ”
Yuan Li nodded, "Zheng Chang, in fact, you are a talented person, but you have been used by people with a heart, but as long as you are willing to change your evil and return to the right, then I am also a person who cherishes talents." However, as soon as you come up, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among others, so you still need to do some basic work in the bookstore in the early stage, and then promote you to an important position when you perform well, are you willing? ”
Hearing this, the last bit of unwillingness in Zheng Chang's heart disappeared completely.
Zheng Chang hurriedly kowtowed to Yuan Li on the ground, sincerely, "Thank you for the kindness of the county lord, Zheng Chang will definitely change his mind and be a new person, and he will definitely achieve the satisfaction of the county lord as soon as possible." ”
…………
I have to say that this Zheng Chang's ability is indeed very good, and after he joined the Royal Bookstore, even the prince couldn't help but praise it.
In the blink of an eye, the royal bookstore entered the normal track, and the newspapers began to circulate in Daning, and those who were not accustomed to being illiterate at first couldn't help but buy a few copies when they heard that a newspaper only cost a penny, and let the people around them read it to him.
"The daughter-in-law and mother-in-law of the Zhang family did such a thing in the dark? It's true that men only want to cry when they hear it, and women want to cry when they hear it! ”
Hearing this title, Yi Xiaohan couldn't help but smile and shook his head at Yuan Li, who was sitting opposite, "Could it be that this is what you said about winning by surprise?" ”
Yuan Li took the newspaper in his hand and read it, watched it repeatedly, and nodded with satisfaction, "That's not it, this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are also powerful, and they have to plant trees in the backyard at night, saying that they want to pray to the moon and bless their son's high school." If this is useful, then everyone in the capital can plant trees! ”
I have to say that a title like this really makes those people want to stop.
"By the way, owner, this is the latest account book, you can take a look."
Although this is the Royal Bookstore, the boss behind it is still the Yuan Li.
Originally, as a bookstore, the emperor did not plan to make money from this, but only wanted to be able to grasp public opinion through the newspaper at a critical time.
And the crown prince didn't have any idea about the money, but he just felt that he could do a good job in this matter to help the emperor govern the country better.
Yuan Li took the account book and looked at it carefully, "Yes, as I thought, at least the money used to sell newspapers now can cover the cost of printing newspapers." ”
Gao Jia was a little worried when he heard this, "But if Ah Li says this, we will lose money." ”
Yuan Li shook her head, "Sister Gao, this is a bad word!" You answer me that during the period from the time the newspaper appeared to the present, how many people have ordered newspapers from us? ”
Gao Jia thought for a while, "From the beginning, only some wealthy families would subscribe to newspapers, and now almost most of the people will subscribe to newspapers, let me think that there are probably at least 100 households." ”
Yuan Li nodded, "This is only in the capital, after the capital is run through this month, from next month our newspapers will be distributed to the surrounding counties, and then there will be monthly magazines distributed to farther places, so that there are more and more people in contact." ”
"That's true, but Yuanli, do you know that no matter how many people there are, we only sell one copper plate per newspaper, and even if we sell more people, we can only wrap up the cost of printing newspapers."
The prince rubbed his temples with a headache, the prevalence of newspapers in the past few days has indeed made the emperor very happy, but at the same time, more and more government affairs are also pressing on his head, and he has not rested for several days, seeing the prince's somewhat tired face, Gao Jia reached out and poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of the prince: "Drink some hot tea, His Royal Highness the prince, pay attention to your body." ”
Looking at the woman in front of him. The prince couldn't help but be stunned again.
Yuan Li snapped his fingers, interrupting their gaze.
"Listen to me."
"Now we're not worried about our lack of silver, are we? So what if you do? ”
When Yuan Li finished speaking, several people said in unison: "Collect advertising fees?!" ”
Yuan Li nodded, "That's right, charge advertising fees!" ”
"Think about what else can reach more people than our newspapers, just imagine, now that you open a new shop and want more people to come to your shop, what else can you do but shout on the street?"
Gao Jia thought for a moment, "You mean, tell everyone in the newspaper?" ”
Yuan Li gave a thumbs up, "Clever!" That's it. As long as you write down the information about the store and the benefits of opening in the newspaper, guess if many people want to go and have a look, so are the stores afraid that there will be no business? ”
Everyone shook their heads in unison......
"So would you like to give some advertising money in the newspaper and attach an advertisement for your store?!"
Everyone nodded hurriedly!
Yuan Li raised her lips and smiled, "That's right, not only that, but we can also open a commendation column in the newspaper." ”
When she said this, Yuan Li's eyes blinked, and she knew at a glance that this girl had some bad intentions.
Sure enough, Yuan Li approached the prince and beckoned to him, "You have to come here for this matter, the prince." ”
After a few words in the prince's ear, the prince was blindsided, "Aha? Is this still the kind of operation? ”
Yuan Li smiled, "You just say it's okay?" ”
……
The next day, the morning is above.
"Your Majesty, son-in-law, I have something to play."
Gritting his teeth, the prince still went out first, and said the task that Yuan Li gave him yesterday according to Yuan Li's words, word by word.
"Emperor, what you mean is that as long as you do good deeds for the people or donate, they will be recorded in the newspaper in time for everyone to know."
The crown prince nodded, "Exactly." Erchen and Yuanli discussed this matter, and now our newspapers in Daning can reach at least thousands of people, just imagine, if the courtiers do good things so that these people can know in time, for the minister, the people can remember his achievements, and for the people, they can also clearly know that the court is doing something for them. Why not kill two birds with one stone? ”
Hearing this, Long Yan was overjoyed!
The emperor immediately stood up, "Good! Just do what you say, Emperor! ”
"You people, I want to see who can get the name of the people's favorite official at the end of the year, and I will be rewarded at that time."
Yes, yesterday Yuanli also instructed the prince to tell everyone in front of everyone that at the end of the year, the newspaper will publish it once, and the favorite official will be selected.
These officials have always cared more about reputation than money.
In particular, the people love officials the most, and this title is too heavy.
With this, those corrupt officials are willing to donate more silver in the future, and those officials who are already honest also have a place to show up.
"This trick is too ruthless!" In the Second Prince's Mansion, several staff members gathered here, and the Second Prince angrily smashed the tea bowl, "I'm afraid that Yuan Li can't stay!" ”
