Chapter 107: His Highness's things are not so easy to take
Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling were speechless for a while, His Royal Highness the King of Shu This performance has fully explained that he is not distressed at all, or rather, he is mentally prepared to do this, and he has long been ready to be taken back by the imperial court.
"Actually, the minister and Zheng Guogong just discussed, the reason why they are waiting here is because they feel that it is not easy for His Highness to invent the Tang Weekly, and what will His Highness want to do in the future, and I am willing to help His Highness." Fang Xuanling arched his hand.
He did discuss it with Wei Zheng and the others just now, Li Ke Judging from what His Majesty said, this is a long time ago, and there is no follow-up plan for this, but Datang is now using troops against Tuyuhun, and he can't withstand the slightest wind and rain, otherwise he will lose all his previous efforts.
Therefore, the best way is to cut through the mess quickly and let His Highness quickly achieve his requirements, even if this matter is over, otherwise, with the temperament of His Royal Highness the King of Shu, the day after tomorrow, even if it is a real court, all the ministers will oppose it, and His Royal Highness the King of Shu will dare to face everyone.
He's not like anyone else, who would compromise.
"Huh? My dad hasn't made a decision yet, why are you so sure? Li Ke was a little curious.
"Your Highness, it hasn't been a year or two for the two of us to follow Your Majesty, and Your Highness also knows us and the other two, so why don't we be open and honest?" Fang Xuanling was a little helpless.
"It's easy to say, in fact, I don't have any requirements, since the two of you asked so sincerely, then I might as well talk about it." Li Ke thought about it, these two were willing to help, but Li Ke didn't recommend talking to them.
"Your Highness, please speak." The two of them spoke at the same time.
"I want to establish an honorary title in Datang, which is used to reward craftsmen who have made major technical improvements for Datang, the title is equivalent to the actual title, but there is no actual authority, only honorary authority, for example, the children of the family have the right to the imperial examination, their titles are equivalent to certain grades of officials, and they should be treated equally with officials of the same grade in terms of the laws of the imperial court."
"The honorary title has no inheritance right, it is all obtained by personal contributions, and those who obtain the title automatically join a department as the Academy of Engineering, and the historians of the Tang Dynasty must list the winners of the honorary titles of the Academy of Engineering separately in the history books!" Li Ke said his request seriously.
Fang Xuanling: "......"
Wei Zheng: "......"
No wonder Your Majesty doesn't dare to agree to you directly, your request is too outrageous. The honorary title is actually okay, after all, it is in name only, and it is not difficult to convince others, but it is listed separately in the history books...... This thing...... If you can break the head of the people in the world, you will give it to some craftsmen? This is not a family of gate valves!
Looking at the expressions of these two people, Li Ke knew that this matter was not so easy, maybe in the eyes of a later generation, isn't this a very simple thing? But in this era, it is really not simple, which is equivalent to asking the state to recognize the existence of the aristocracy in later generations, which shakes the fundamentals.
Although it may not be that serious, it is just an opening.
But these gate lords are not so stupid, don't they know that this thing has opened a hole, like a thousand miles of embankment destroyed in an anthill? It's easy to open a hole, but if you want to close it again after you open it, it's going to be difficult.
"Your Highness's request...... We can try our best, but I'm afraid the result may not be what His Highness thinks. Fang Xuanling pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter, you two just have to do your best." Li Ke said with a smile.
"Then Zheng Guogong and I will leave first, we need to discuss it first." Fang Xuanling said tentatively.
"Let's go, two." Li Ke arched his hand.
Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng gave up again and left directly.
"Hey, hey, hey." Looking at the backs of the two people, Li Ke laughed directly, the court meeting the day after tomorrow must be very exciting!
Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng walked away, and they couldn't hear Li Ke's laughter, otherwise, it is estimated that the two of them would have to break out in their hearts.
Li Ke didn't stay, but left here directly to go to Youjian Mall.
When he arrived at the mall, Tian Meng and the others were already waiting here.
"How's it going?" Li Ke asked directly.
"All the newspapers have been sold, a total of 50,000 copies." Tian Meng was a little excited, although he said that the money was not much, a newspaper cost 5 yuan, and 50,000 copies were only 250 yuan. And this is basically not profitable, it is the cost price, if you even count the money given to those little newsboys, at most it is more than the usual money.
Li Ke nodded with satisfaction, Chang'an City has a population of about one million, fifty thousand copies is a lot, and an average of twenty people has a newspaper, which is enough for the entire Chang'an City to know.
"Where's the little print?" Li Ke asked again.
"A total of 50,000 copies, all over Chang'an City except for Miyagi. Now the entire Chang'an City already knows, and because the content you asked to write is attractive enough, the people of Chang'an are now discussing who "Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng" is. ”
Li Ke was a little surprised, this is on fire? But thinking about it, it seems that it should be, there is really no entertainment in this era. And the short story written by "Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng" is full of suspense, ethics, flipping and other content, do you think Li Ke had so many bosom friends when he was young, the story will be, and readers will read it in vain? And there are various truths behind the little story, commonly known as chicken soup.
In this day and age, this thing is a big killer.
In particular, the entire small-character poster is written in an easy-to-understand vernacular, and even ordinary people can understand what it means as long as they are literate. And even if they don't understand, there is a literate person next to them who reads to them, and everyone can understand what it means.
Therefore, this Lanling Xiaoxiao became popular in an instant, which is much more interesting than the Datang Weekly that suddenly appeared outside.
Although everyone is also very interested in Datang Weekly, although ordinary people are also enthusiastic and deeply touched by the major events of the family and country in it, there is still a lot of distance from their lives.
What Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng wrote was different, and many of the things in it seemed to be happening around them.
Even after watching it, many people began to say that this incident happened in the second nephew's second nephew's next door to his uncle's house...... There is a nose and eyes.
"Prepare the second batch, post it tomorrow." Li Ke waved his hand, "Mix in everyone else's and post it together." ”
"Yes!"
Tian Meng opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, he couldn't figure out what the use of this thing was, but since His Highness said it was useful, it was useful.
Li Ke is face is relaxed, how can His Highness's things be so easy to take? Hey, the day after tomorrow will see who jumps out first, and whoever jumps out first, who will be cut first.
"That's right! Let there be a mall and other stores that sell paper, cost price, no profit! Li Ke waved his hand again very simply.
"Yes!"
