Leaving Shuntian Mansion, Jia Baoyu went straight to Yuxiang Bookstore.

At this time, there were a lot of people gathered outside Yuxiang Bookstore, most of them were literati, and many of them were quite old.

Jia Baoyu jumped out of the carriage and walked with Hua'an and Wuda.

"Yuxiang Bookstore, obscene, openly provoked the moral bottom line of the people of my capital, corrupted the ethics of the norms, and printed the nude photos of the woman in the newspaper for tens of millions of people to watch, it is simply insulting!

Resolutely resist! ”

Other literati raised their arms and shouted: "Resolutely resist!" Resolutely resist! Resolutely resist! ”

Seeing Jia Baoyu coming, Hua Zifang hurriedly whispered: "Second master, these people came to make trouble early in the morning, and they were blocked at the gate, and today's newspapers are backlogged in the warehouse, I'm afraid it will delay things." ”

Jia Baoyu asked, "Is today's newspaper still a underwear cover?" ”

Hua Zifang nodded and said: "The second master ordered, how dare the villain change it, and the sales of newspapers in the past few days have not decreased but increased, and the turnover is ten percent more than usual." ”

And this kind of good thing?

Hearing that the turnover has increased by 10 percent, Jia Baoyu is not much surprised.

Confucius said: Chromophobia is also.

As long as you are a normal person, you like to look at those things that rub the edges.

Why do women watch so many people in high jump, long jump, and diving, and most of them are male audiences?

Why Are Ballet Skirts So Short?

Why is it that there is always the HS website that ranks first in the annual browser search?

In the final analysis, this is human nature, and this is what the broad masses of the people like to see.

Jia Baoyu coughed dryly and said: "Today's newspaper is still distributed as scheduled, but tomorrow it will be changed and replaced with the previous cover." ”

Hua Zifang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Oh my God, second master, you finally figured it out, you don't know, my hair is falling out one by one these days, and I can't sleep at night." ”

Jia Baoyu smiled: "Let you be wronged, your salary will be doubled this month." ”

Hua Zifang suddenly stopped complaining, and said: "It's not about money, thank you Second Master!"

But these students outside don't give them a satisfactory answer, I'm afraid they won't leave. ”

Jia Baoyu laughed: "This is easy. ”

Half an hour later, dozens of greenskins with sticks in their hands rushed over in a menacing manner, and they beat anyone they saw when they saw it, and whoever shouted the loudest would hit whoever shouted.

The leading literati were beaten on the head and bled and fled in embarrassment.

"In broad daylight, you dare to commit murder! And there is no royal law! ”

At first, the fiercest shouter shouted.

The person who took the lead smiled coldly: "Wang Fa? Lao Tzu is the king's law! ”

As he spoke, another stick went down and hit the scholar in the face, knocking out a few teeth.

The originally crowded streets were emptied in an instant, leaving only a few broken shoes and a bachelor's hat.

Hua Zifang saw this group of wolf-like green skins, and her legs and stomachs were spinning: "Second master, these people shouldn't have been found by you, right?" ”

Jia Baoyu didn't speak, and said to Hua Zifang: "If anyone makes trouble in the future, I will send someone to Dongcheng to find the Yiwu Gang." ”

Hua Zifang was secretly speechless, but it was not strange to think about it, after his master was the prince of the country, it was normal to know a few green skins who were in the line.

The person who took the lead was the hall master of Yiwu Gang Yipintang - Huo Juzhong.

He asked his younger brother to wait at the door, and entered the bookstore himself, and all the guys in the bookstore shy away from him.

"Second master, you are frightened, please forgive me for being one step late."

Huo Juzhong gave Jia Baoyu a salute and said very respectfully.

Jia Baoyu asked Hua Zifang to take out an ingot of twenty taels of silver and hand it to Huo Juzhong, and said with a smile: "You can't let the brothers run for nothing, it should be regarded as the brothers' tea expenses." ”

"Thank you for the second master's reward!"

Huo Juzhong smiled and took the silver, in his eyes, Jia Baoyu was the wealth boy of the Yiwu Gang.

Now there are hundreds of people up and down the Yiwu Gang, all pointing to Jia Baoyu to live.

In the past, I collected protection money in Dongcheng, and I was hungry and full, and I had to grab land with other gangs, and my life was tight.

But since this master came over, he has been able to receive money every month.

These hall masters are two taels of silver a month, and the younger brothers below also have one tael of silver a month.

With a fixed income, Qi Wei usually takes them to work hard and train battle formations.

In the name of exercising, seize more territory.

However, during this time, the Yiwu Gang attacked left and right, grabbed a few pieces of land, and had already hit from the original Nancangmen Hutong to Dongzhimen Outer Street, and the number of people under them has expanded from more than 300 people to more than 500 people.

Most of these people are members of other gangs in the past, and some young refugees have fled from other places.

Qi Wei is now rich, food, and people, and the Yiwu Gang has grown rapidly.

Jia Baoyu waved his hand and said, "Say hello to Gang Master Qi for me, and by the way, help me with a word, and ask her to help me contact a few Qinglou in Dongcheng, and I will go over later." ”

When Huo Juzhong heard this, his eyes lit up: "Second master, do you want to open a kiln too?" ”

"Fuck off, what kind of kiln, it's so vulgar, don't ask if you shouldn't ask, be careful that next month's bonus will be stopped."

Jia Baoyu scolded angrily.

"Don't, second master, the little one knows it's wrong, the little one will get out now, you must not deduct the small bonus, the small family of five can live by the silver."

Huo Juzhong said.

Hua Zifang on the side was dizzy by his bonuses and wages, and he couldn't understand how his master would pay the wages to the green skins.

drove Huo Juzhong away, and Jia Baoyu let Lao Mo and the others go to his office.

"Now the leasing section of Shenjing Daily is doing well, thanks to your hard work, this month's salary has doubled."

Jia Baoyu is not false, and the workers do a good job, so he will directly distribute the silver.

Lao Mo and the others applauded happily, and they all wanted to kneel and kowtow to Jia Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu waved his hand and said: "You are all older than me, kowtow is exempt, as long as you work hard, it is the greatest reward for me." ”

The attacker said: "Shenjing Daily has a small profit but quick turnover, and it can sell at least 20,000 copies a day, which is already our limit, but the profit is still too small, or we should give up the daily newspaper and specialize in printing novels and periodicals." ”

Jia Baoyu shook his head and said: "I don't run a newspaper to make a profit, even if I lose money, I have to run it." Although novels and books make a lot of money, they are just a means, and our main business is to do a good job in the marketing of newspapers. ”

Lao Mo suggested: "Master, except for advertising and renting, novel serialization, and chicken soup for the soul, our newspapers can be discarded, which saves the cost of printing and greatly improves efficiency."

Anyway, the people who buy our newspapers love to read novels and chicken soup for the soul, and the other pages are almost unattended. ”

Jia Baoyu said with a smile: "Your suggestion is very good, we can try more new things in the future, such as this novel serialization, not only my novels, but also folk writers, publish some good anecdotes." ”

Yuxiang Bookstore has always relied on Jia Baoyu's "Journey to the West" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as support.

In the past, Jia Baoyu did not leave the house, and had time to create.

But now he has to be busy with the imperial examination, and he has to be busy with the training of the villagers in Heitu Village, and he has to keep an eye on the production progress of several factories, and he is already lacking in skills.

If you want him to create art, it will be difficult for some strong people.

It's not that no one has submitted during this time, but the novels written by those who submitted are unsightly, just like the level of the author of this book, and it is a pity to discard them.

Hua Zifang has also written a few serialized articles, such as "Jiuhua Golden Needle", "Jindou Wanyan Cup" and the like, and the response is mediocre.

I simply withdrew.

Jia Baoyu rubbed his head, thought for a long time, and suddenly patted his head: "There is!" I went to the teacher and asked to see if he had the right person to recommend. ”

Although Liu Zongzhou is not a good official, his protégés are everywhere, and they are all over the world.

His disciples are also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

It can be said that as long as they do not participate in the imperial examination, these disciples of Liu Zongzhou are all leaders in their own industries.

But it's already dark on this day, and I'm afraid I'll have to stay there for dinner now.

"Second master, do you want to leave after dinner?"

Said with a beautiful eye.

Jia Baoyu swallowed his saliva with difficulty, but still refused: "If you have something to do at night, you won't eat it." ”

attacked people with a look of grievance, but still sent Jia Baoyu out of the door.

She wore a ponytail and her long hair was scattered, and her perfect body stood in the doorway, setting off her beautiful face like a porcelain painting in the afterglow.
