Chapter 246: Both refined and popular
All the retainers and servants of the palace were standing in the courtyard.
Li Shanren was also regarded as a retainer in Prince Wu's palace at this time, with him as the leader, followed by Shen Dabao and others in sequence.
As Zhu Jun's husband, Li Yanxi should not come here.
But at this time, he was living in Prince Wu's mansion, so it would not be appropriate for him to act in such a condescending manner.
But my wife and daughter didn't come over.
"See you, Princess!" Everyone bowed in unison.
The retainers bowed and the servants knelt.
Xu Miaojin put away the grievances in her heart, looked at the people extending outwards, and cheered up.
No matter what, from now on, she is the nominal mistress of Prince Wu's Mansion.
"Everyone, get up. From now on we are all a family, and we need to work together to run the palace in good order!" Xu Miaojin smiled, and then rewarded a lot of money and money, and also raised the moon bells of the slaves in the palace.
It is a necessary process to win people's hearts.
This money came from the Xu family's dowry, not from Prince Wu's palace. It was because Lao Xu was afraid that his daughter would be offended, so he almost emptied a third of the treasury.
So Xu Miaojin is also very confident.
Guanyinnu and Tang Zhongling were not so heroic, but gave them some symbolic rewards. After all, they could not overshadow Xu Miaojin.
"Thank you, Princess!" Everyone in the mansion was beaming with joy.
Zhu Jun was stretching his body, and when he heard the sound coming from the front yard, he couldn't help but laugh.
After finishing his physical exercise, Zhu Jun went over to have breakfast.
The location of breakfast has been changed, with men at one table and women at one table.
Xu Miaojin and the others sat together with Wang Li, Qinghe and others, but they did not act like princesses.
This is quite good.
He still sat under Li Yanxi, but was rejected by Li Yanxi, "Your Highness is the head of the family, how can he live as a subordinate?"
If Zhu Jun is not married yet, that's all. Now that he is married, Zhu Jun must be given enough face.
Seeing Li Yanxi's insistence, Zhu Jun did not refuse and sat on top, "Let's start!"
When he opened his mouth, everyone picked up their chopsticks.
The atmosphere at breakfast was very good.
This was not Xu Miaojin's first time living in Prince Wu's Mansion, but she was used to it.
But Tang Zhongling and his wife were very strange. Not only men and women ate together, but also the retainers ate together. Although there was a sense of superiority and inferiority, there was no great restriction.
Very relaxed.
Guanyin slave thought to himself, "It seems that things will be easier in the future!"
Unlike in Prince Qin's Mansion, where there are so many rules, if she makes a slight mistake, she will be humiliated and punished.
"Your Highness, this is the final template for the first issue!" When they were almost done eating, Li Yanxi handed over the newspaper.
Zhu Jun looked at it carefully and said with a smile: "Yes, this first issue will definitely make our name as an Astronomical Journal!"
"But Your Highness, the price of this newspaper is three cents. Isn't it too low?" Li Shanren said: "Although the paper of this newspaper is not excellent, it is still above average. There are three such large papers. Isn't it even a copy?
Can’t you take it back?”
Zhu Jun smiled. He had no intention of making money from newspapers. Even if the craftsmen of the royal palace improved the papermaking technology, what would the cost be? Adding ink money, a newspaper would cost at least six cents.
In other words, if he sells a newspaper, he will lose three cents.
Moreover, this does not include the upfront investment.
"If newspapers don't make money, they will definitely lose money in the early stage. As long as they build a reputation, they won't have to worry about sales in the future." Zhu Jun said: "When sales open up, I have other ways to recover the cost!"
"Enlarge the market and sell the newspaper?" Li Shanren thought that Zhu Jun still wanted to imitate the lottery.
"Forgive me for talking too much, but a newspaper office is not a lottery shop and is not suitable for all people to participate. Although there are many scholars in Daye, not everyone is literate.
There are also many folk publications, most of which publish the poems and songs of literati and poets.
It was not a business in the first place, it was more circulated in the circle.
The reason is that I hope that my literary talent can be recognized by literati, and then use it as a qualification to join the ranks!"
Zhu Jun smiled and said, "The concerns of the Korean public are not unreasonable. Mr. Li and I have also discussed this matter. Literary newspapers only publish poems and songs. Maybe poems and songs are not profitable, but folk tales and Zhanghui novels are suitable for both refined and popular tastes."
Very interesting..."
Yes, Zhu Jun plans to serialize the novel in newspapers.
What are the four great classics?
Or maybe all kinds of prehistoric myths and martial arts novels are not within easy reach for him, a doctor of archeology?
When the time comes, put on a vest and find ten ghostwriters from him, you can have fun and make money.
Feeling that there were not enough topics, he ended the conversation himself.
When the news about someone writing a book spreads, won't all those people come over to watch the fun?
Black and red are also red!
When the circulation increases, you can set up a workers' newspaper, issue advertisements, and seek sponsorship from the big guys in the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce. Wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to make money?
This is not the most important thing. What is important is that he can control public opinion.
The power of newspapers in this era is equal to that of mouthpieces.
Even if others want to learn, they must have the capital and backing.
And his support is as high as the sky!
Li Shanren frowned, "Publishing novels and stories? That's so vulgar, will those with higher eyes buy it?"
In his eyes, the people who buy these newspapers are literati and poets.
Ordinary people will not buy it.
"Besides, this is a literary newspaper. Isn't publishing novels unprofessional?" Li Shanren looked at Li Yanxi and thought, why does Li Yanxi also have Zhu Jun?
This is a very serious matter, how come it seems like a joke!
"Why, drinking Longjing is elegant, eating garlic is vulgar?" Zhu Jun said with a smile: "If the meaning of a literary newspaper is to cater to those stinky scholars, then why should I bother with it?
But if this literary journal can open up people's wisdom and allow illiterate people to learn knowledge that they have no access to on a daily basis, then this is the meaning of the establishment of a literary journal!
What is the meaning of books?
Mr. Li said that reading makes people wise, but there are always people who cannot afford to read.
The reason why I publish a literary newspaper at a loss is because I have a lot of money and no place to burn it.
But I think these three coins are not very much, and even ordinary people can afford them.
If he can't afford one, he can buy one separately.
Even a child can get a penny.
Elegance has never been what I want, only elegance and vulgarity can be appreciated.
Maybe I will fail, but it doesn’t matter, as long as I’m on the right path, even if I lose a lot, time will tell me the answer!”
Li Shanren was stunned.
Li Yanxi on the side stroked his beard and said to Li Shanren: "I have four great wishes in the Astronomical Journal. Does Mr. Korea know what the first great wish is?"
Li Shanren shook his head.
Li Yanxi smiled and said: "Open people's wisdom!"
"What about your second wish?"
Chapter completed!
