Chapter 216: The Storm of the Wall Calendar

Rong Ci was lying comfortably on a big tree drinking old wine, and said to himself: "Xiao Wang's wine has been mixed with a lot of water recently, yes, a little conscience." [Ran^Text^Library] []”

Before he could take a few sips, the messenger on his waist shook.

If the messenger is placed in the space ring, it will not receive the message, so each mage carries the messenger with him.

"Why is this little girl playing with the communication array again, if there is nothing important when she goes back, she has to be taught a good lesson. Rong Ci's "Perception of Life" was interrupted again, and it was very unpleasant.

The next moment, Rong Ci teleported back to his magic tower, and he didn't need to go to the communication array to find Ruan Xingzhu, who was already waiting at the door of his room.

Seeing Rong Ci walk out of the room, Ruan Xingzhu excitedly shouted: "Master, master, the magic power of my first meridian is full. ”

"What? How long have you been cultivating your magic power? Seven months? This is the mid-term apprentice magician? Hahaha, it is worthy of my apprenticeship, and you really have a strong talent, and you will be promoted to a robed magician in less than two years.

How old are you, thirteen, fifteen years old, a robed magician, and you will definitely be promoted to a wand-wielding magician before you are twenty years old. Hehe, I'm sure I'm catching up, I finally have an apprentice who has a little bit of interest. Rong Ci suddenly forgot that someone interrupted his "perception of life".

Ruan Xingzhu stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm only full of the magic power of one meridian, master, where did you go, you can see too far this time, right?"

"Not far, not far, time flies. This hundred-year-old man has been through too much, "How are you doing with your Wind Blade?"

Ruan Xingzhu raised a jade finger, pondered silently for a while, and then pointed at Rong Ci, and a wind blade shot over.

When the wind blade flew closer, Rong Ci stretched out his hand and patted Ruan Xingzhu's wind blade directly, this is the qi system, only by comprehending the qi element can we achieve this point.

"So-so, you can kill some rats and cockroaches. Gong Lianggu also asked me before, among the disciples who walked outside, did they have any wind blade techniques that had not yet been practiced at home?

I just said that I didn't even practice the Wind Blade Technique, so I was not qualified to leave Tianmen Town, and I was the only little girl under my sect who didn't reach the perfect realm of the Wind Blade Technique. The smile on Rong Ci's face was put away a lot, he was very strict with his students' practice of magic.

"The level of magic is innate, and no amount of hard work can change much, but magic is practiced, and you can see at a glance whether you work hard or not. This is what Rong Ci often said to Ruan Xingzhu.

"How long have I been studying, how long have my brothers and sisters been studying, can you compare them like this?" Ruan Xingzhu muttered on the side, not daring to speak too loudly.

"If you play less with the communication array and spend more time practicing, you will definitely be much better than you are now. At this time, Rong Ci remembered that his "perception of life" was interrupted, "No, you can't waste such a good talent."

I found that your physique is much better than that of ordinary people, and your family should not have been easy before. From today you double your training, and I'm going to push you personally to see where your limits are. Every great magician starts from a young age. ”

"Ah!?" Ruan Xingzhu lamented, just thinking about giving the teacher good news, but she didn't expect it to be the beginning of her hard life.

#####

"Wonderful, this calendar isn't complicated at all, it's just that we didn't think of it before. Think about what the young people in the capital are doing? either training, reading, walking dogs, teasing birds, or even older, attending balls and salons, there are too many decadent lives in them.

Think about how Young Master Ding grew up in the so-called countryside of Pingzhong County, but he had so many wonderful ideas. Not to mention the wall calendar and magazines, which are very close to life, take his sales plan as an example, it is clearly organized, well-planned, and thoughtful.

Let the Senate and the Clan Mansion each occupy a single share, and it is easy for the nobles and the royal family to unite around him, and even better is that he has not forgotten his position as the protector of the right capital, and let the Secretary of Internal Security share the credit for the report. Is this still a fifteen-year-old boy?" Mu Heng couldn't put it down with the wall calendar, and praised Ding Kui in his mouth.

Jiang Tong carefully read Ding Kui's sales plan, gently put it on the table, couldn't help but grab two iron galls, and turned them in his hand briskly.

"In the past, when the army was marching and fighting, the staff would always make some plans, and there were some tables in it that were similar to this wall calendar, but the days were much shorter. But for many years, no one has thought about using it in ordinary life, and now people on the mainland are using stereotypes.

My good grandson will follow his mother, can the stunned boy of the Ding family give birth to such a clever baby? Hehe, the Jiang family has a queen, no matter what he will do in the future, with his current ability, he has already managed the Jiang family well, and An Guogong's position as the third elder of the Senate cannot be shaken.

Jiang Kui, well, it's nice to change your surname, catchy, sonorous and powerful. Jiang Tong leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed and comfortable, lacking the majesty of the ten dukes.

"You see, Young Master Ding didn't say anything to the Jiang family, but just handed over the production of wall calendars to the Jiang family for the franchise. No one can fault it, and who in the world is better qualified to do it than you?

I calculated a little, due to the huge quantity, the cost of materials and printing was reduced a lot, and the cost of a wall calendar was about twenty copper plates. If the kingdom sends an army to ensure the safety of transportation, the farthest distance from Anguk County, the cost of transportation is about ten copper plates each.

We have 20 percent of the profit from these costs, as long as the price of 10 copper plates is higher, and the transportation cost is calculated, there will be about 15,000 gold coins for 10 million wall calendars. The key is that it also supports a large number of laborers in the paper workshop and printing workshop, and in the future, there will be no idlers in Anguo County who just eat and do nothing.

A wall calendar is calculated according to the price of two silver coins, and each earns an average of 170 copper plates, plus the income from advertising expenses, 10 million copies per year is about a profit of nearly 300,000 gold coins. The Senate received an extra 30,000 gold coins every year, and this extra money could be used as a reward for employees, saving the ten elders from paying for subsidies every year.

Even if the nobles below can't share the profits from the sale of the calendar, their territory has an extra tax every year, and the more people there are, the more money they have, and everyone can get a little benefit. On the royal side, it's even simpler, and the tax accounts for more than sixty percent, and they are more willing than anyone else. Mu Heng gave full play to the functional role of his staff and analyzed Ding Kui's sales plan.

A few days later, Shao Dianyin, director of the Department of Internal Guard, presented it to the king with a wall calendar in both hands.

"King Qiyu, this is the right protector of the lowly subordinates. "Shaodian Yin's report.

Shaodian Dan glanced at the wall calendar on the table, smiled slightly, and said, "Ding Duhu is good to you, a chief, I haven't seen you before, so I gave you such a big credit." ”

"King Mingjian, the humble position and Ding Duhu have never met, let alone have anything to do with it. Ding Duhu's official position was rewarded by the king himself, and this time he was able to do so purely to repay the king's grace. The patriotic heart of the Protector Hou Ding has not changed for thousands of years.

This time, regarding the matter of the shares of the wall calendar, the Minister of Health and Inspection asked the king for instructions, how to answer Ding Duhu, and hoped that the king would show it. When Shaodianyin heard the king say this, he knew that the spy department had already reported it before him.

Shaodian Dan naturally heard Shaodianyin's dissatisfaction.

There are only two left and right guards under the Department of Internal Security as deputies, although the right protector is an idle position, but it is given to a child who is tens of thousands of kilometers away from the capital, and the director of the Department of Internal Security lacks a powerful arm for no reason.

"You should have heard some news, this time the Senate also divided 10% of the shares, so your internal security department and the health inspection department are good, can you afford this share?

The Captain of the Clan Mansion was embarrassed to ask the people below you for money, so he had to open this mouth alone, not to mention that the Internal Health Department of your Ministry of Health alone could not guarantee the sales of wall calendars throughout the country.

The shares of the wall calendar were handed over to the clan government, which was arranged by the Tai Wei, but the clan mansion would not sign any contract with Ding Duhu, so that he could automatically hand it over every year. Shaodian Dan said in a somewhat helpless tone.

He is not a good king, but all departments related to money are dead when it comes to financial issues.

Although the Shaodian Kingdom is not small, with a large population, and the funds involved are tens of millions of dollars every year, but just like tens of thousands of gold coins every year, the first governor of the dignified clan mansion has to come to hint at the king.

Shaodian Dan didn't know that Shaodian's supervision system was quite perfect, and officials at all levels could not be said to be very clean, at least on the surface, they were all well-behaved, and the larger the money, the more no one dared to reach out. It is often the most eye-catching that some funds that seem to be small but have a lot to use.

Ding Kui's share of this shares, without specifying the specific purpose, is very easy to use, as long as he does not put all the money in his pocket, he will not be criticized anywhere.

Of course, Shaodianyin didn't dare to have any opinions in front of the king, but after walking out of the palace, his face was covered with dark clouds.

The backyard of Tai Academy.

With a "bang", the door of Shaodianmi's room was kicked open, and he looked up to see that it was the director of the Department of Internal Security.

"Lord Yin, why are you doing this? We are ministers in the same palace, and we are also the directors of the clan mansion, so it's a bit rude to do this. Shaodian said angrily.

"Shaodianmi, I am your cousin in terms of seniority, and you also know that I am the same director, even if you are higher than me, there is still a discussion about whether your surname is Shaodian. Shaodian Yin was unceremoniously, "I don't care if you supervise other people, but it is not your turn to interfere in the people and affairs of my Internal Security Division."

Ding Duhu's matter is the family matter of my internal security department, not to mention that this time he still reported directly to me as usual. It's good that you still rushed ahead of me to report to the king, and even the Minister of Health and Inspection ignored it. ”

(The schedule is a little changed now, and the future update will have to wait until three or four o'clock in the afternoon)
