So when Xu Jingzong asked him, he could continue talking immediately.

"This conflict has been avoided, but except for some college students who may buy such newspapers and periodicals, who would be interested? You can't just print a bunch of newspapers every day and leave them there and no one wants them, right? Besides,

, such research results cannot be obtained every day."

"It's simple. We can connect this newspaper with other things. For example, if the Ministry of Household Recruitment now recruits subordinates, don't they all come to Guanshishan Academy to take the arithmetic grade exam, and the craftsman grade of each workshop?

There are also examinations for assessment, and the test questions are all determined by the teachings of our academy. Then why don’t we make a rule that the content of these examinations in the future will be extracted from the information published in newspapers and periodicals. In this case, these

It won’t work if people don’t buy our newspapers and periodicals.”

Liu Jie's words made Xu Jingzong's eyes light up.

Although the method is a bit unscrupulous, the effect is definitely very good.

Xu Jingzong still has this vision.

"Liu Jie, you have a good idea. I will leave the affairs of the academy's newspapers and periodicals to you. You can sort out a plan first, and I will report it to His Highness the King of Chu at some time."

…

At the capital of Dezhong, Changsun Chong and Zheng Hai were talking about "Chang'an Evening News".

"Brother Changsun, I asked someone to find out clearly. Even though the latest edition of Datang Daily has sold more than 10,000 copies in Chang'an City, it is actually not something worthy of honor at all."

"Oh? Where did you come from?"

Changsun Chong also heard the news, and he felt a little confused when he thought that his Chang'an Evening News had only printed a thousand copies and had not sold out.

Now that I heard Zheng Hai's somewhat different statement, my curiosity arose.

"The price of Datang Daily is one penny per copy. Taking into account the paper cost, printing cost, writer's cost, and the rewards for newspaper sellers, you will lose at least two pence by selling a newspaper in Chang'an City.

. Although these two pennies are nothing, when accumulated over time, they are not a small amount."

"Two cents? This is very close to the loss range of our Chang'an Evening News, but their sales volume is more than ten times ours, and their total losses are also more than ten times ours."

Changsun Chong finally found a reason to be happy.

"Hey, this is only the situation in Chang'an City. I heard that the Chu Palace also sent people to transport Datang Daily to various state capitals in Guanzhong Road, and also sold it in attached state capitals such as Luoyang. In these places, the transportation cost alone is

If the price rises, each newspaper will lose at least two cents, or even more."

Zheng Hai can no longer see Li Kuan's operations at all.

Although he also supports Weishui Academy to follow the trend, he will never agree to take such a big step all at once.

"Does Li Kuan think he has too much money and no room to spend money? What good does it do him to sell newspapers at a loss like this? Could it be that he wants to use this opportunity to plot something?"

Changsun Chong also couldn't understand Li Kuan's operation.

"Who knows, but this newspaper is published to the public. Anyone who wants to play a conspiracy can be identified at a glance. We will just wait and see what tricks he wants to play."

…

In Tianxiang Pavilion, there has been an additional change recently.

I don’t know if it was the girl or my mother’s idea, but some Datang Daily newspapers were placed everywhere in Tianxiang Pavilion.

This newspaper costs a penny per serving. Tianxiangge buys hundreds of copies at a time and places them everywhere, so it doesn’t cost much.

However, many guests who come for entertainment will pick it up and watch it from time to time.

In this way, they will stay in Tianxiang Pavilion longer.

In a place like a brothel, you are not afraid that if you stay here for too long, you are afraid that no one will come.

As long as you are here, people will always find opportunities for you to spend money.

"Girl, here, this is the latest edition of Datang Daily that has just been released. The newsboy just delivered it."

Xiao Qian handed Sisi a newspaper.

Although Xiaoqian knew some words, reading newspapers was still too difficult for her.

Therefore, she always pestered her girl to tell her stories.

Sisi was happy to have someone to share it with.

"Brother Tuo Nei recommends Xi Bin like a sea of ​​people."

Sisi did not read any other content, but directly found the latest chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions" and began to read it with gusto.

"Ouch, don't keep wandering around there, my head will get dizzy."

"Girl, what's the story in this chapter? How about Lin Daiyu?"

Xiao Qian was like a tickling mouse, constantly circling around Sisi. Now that she saw Sisi stopping to talk to her, she quickly asked her question.

"I'll tell you later. This chapter is much better than the previous one. It seems to have a lot of foreshadowing. I feel like this book is starting to enter the main chapter. I'll tell you after I read it again."

After Sisi finished speaking, no matter how expectant Xiao Qian's eyes were, she continued to read the newspaper.

And there are many people in Chang'an City who have the same reaction as her.
Chapter completed!
