Chapter 170: Newspaper

Although Jiang Long did not tell Chai Shirong the news, he generally believed Mrs. Diexiang's words.

So I discussed it with Mrs. Jing.

He also revealed that he was the mastermind behind the assassination of Huai Wang Zhao Zhang.

Mrs. Jing was very excited. First, Jiang Long was very masculine. He was no longer as weak as before. He acted boldly, fiercely, and had iron-blooded methods. After all, the Jing family was a descendant of military generals, and after listening to Jiang Long's story about assassinating King Huai

After the deployment and process, it can be seen that Jiang Long is very cautious.

Fang Pan's death can also prove that Jiang Long will not be indecisive!

Otherwise, if he showed any signs of cheating, he would have been arrested by the emperor and thrown into a prison.

Although Jing Mansion has a gold medal for immunity from death, Huai Wang Zhao Zhang is the emperor's biological son. Once it is found out, this gold medal will be of no use at all.

Jingfu will definitely be sentenced to death.

Secondly, Jiang Longhui makes black explosives. The power of black explosives is too great and amazing.

Huai Wang Zhao Zang was killed, making this weapon famous in Qi Dynasty.

Then he learned from Jiang Long that this kind of black explosive could easily blow open the city gate, and even Mrs. Jing, who had always been very steady in holding it, couldn't keep calm.

The significance of this weapon is too great!

He didn't know when the imperial edict conferring Jiang Long an official position would come out, so Jiang Long prepared in advance.

First, we must first determine the candidate who will follow Jiang Long.

At the beginning of the discussion, Jiang Long first made clear his attitude. This appointment was very dangerous and he would not bring any female dependents, and he also explained that he would not bring even a maid.

Madam Jing just frowned. Jiang Long and Lin Ya haven't consummated their marriage yet. If she doesn't bring a female dependent, when will she be able to have her great-grandson?

But what Jiang Long said is very reasonable. It is indeed very dangerous to go to the local government this time.

You must know that the person who is unfavorable to Jiang Long is the current emperor!

Not only is it dangerous to take the female family members with you, but at a critical moment, the female family members may even hold you back.

"Ya'er stays in the house to help grandma take care of the house affairs. The jade hairpin and the treasure vase are at the farm to take care of the normal production of the knitting and embroidery workshop." Jiang Long arranged this.

Mrs. Jing thought for a while and could only nod in agreement.

He also had other thoughts in mind. Last time he sent Mother Yao to the farm to persuade Jiang Long and Lin Ya to consummate their marriage. As a result, Jiang Long promised well, but never took action.

Mrs. Jing thought that even if she spoke, Jiang Long would be perfunctory.

It's better to do it in secret... Thinking of this, Mrs. Jing glanced at Lin Ya.

Just convince Lin Ya to cooperate.

Next, we need to bring enough guards. Tudu, Gangdibak, Qin Yu, Hou Jiang, and Jiang Long are all necessary.

Sang Zhu stayed and led her men to protect the safety of Lin Ya, Yu Chai and Baoping.

In addition, we should also pay attention to the movements over the Lin family.

The secret line sent by the original person Jing Jianglong to the Lin family has been sent quietly several times. In addition to explaining that Lin Ya's brother is not doing well, he also gives a general explanation of the Lin family's predicament. The last time the Lin family arrived through the script,

Yes, I also made some money.

It's just a drop in the bucket, far from enough.

Jiang Long has always been thinking about how to rescue Lin Ya's brother from the Lin Mansion.

Only then can he act to bring down the Lin family, or seize power and help Lin Ya's younger brother take over.

Jiang Long deliberately allowed Du Juan and the Lin family's spies in Ningyuan County to secretly send the storybook back to the Lin family. The purpose was to let the Lin family taste some sweetness. It is very clear that Jiang Long is very good at making money.

First hand.

Now that the bait has been spilled, when the opportunity is right, the fish will naturally take the initiative to bite the hook.

At that time, it will be time to catch the big fish of the Lin family.

The storybook was only secretly sent out by Du Juan once, and Jiang Long sent the manuscripts to the printing house himself.

Since the embroidery and puppet business started, the farm has been strictly controlled. Entrances to and from the farm are strictly guarded by guards, and people have to be searched when they come in and out. Even though Du Juan is Lin Ya's dowry maid, she is still cautious.

Afraid of being caught by the guards.

The Lin family has only tasted the sweetness once now, and as they are well-informed, they naturally know that Jianglong's business is booming now, so it will be up to them when they can no longer hold back.

In addition to those few people, Mrs. Jing also asked Jiang Long to bring several guards from the mansion.

These guards are not as skilled as Tudu and others, but they have been on the battlefield and have rich experience.

For example, when Jiang Long was attacked at Jialan Temple last time, the vice-captain commanded him well and personally led his men to stay behind, and took the initiative to rush forward to block the opponent's archers, preventing them from using their arrows to their advantage.

Jiang Long naturally would not refuse.

If it's in the dark, he prefers to sneak alone.

But when you go to work as an official in other places, you must not be secretive.

Being fair and aboveboard will be even more dangerous!

Absolutely not possible without enough guard power.

After talking about the guards, Mrs. Jing arranged for Jiang Long to have staff who were familiar with the laws of Daqi. Once they arrived at the place, they had to open up the situation and prevent others from taking advantage of the loopholes in the laws. Without such assistants, it would definitely be impossible.

of.

Mrs. Jing arranged for three people.

The three of them have been living in Jing's mansion, but few people know that they are all in their thirties and worked for Jing Xian back then.

Jingxian died in the battle, but the three of them still remained loyal to the Jing family.

They have been holding back, hoping that one day Jing Jianglong can show his talent so that they can help him.

However, the previous Jingjiang Dragon disappointed them so much that they never got to see Jingjiang Dragon.

Now Jiang Long has caused some trouble in the capital. The three of them are willing to follow him to take up their posts, but they still maintain a wait-and-see attitude while assisting.

If Jiang Long cannot satisfy them, they will return to Jingfu to live in seclusion again.

Wait for Jiang Long's children to grow up.

The three of them are now in their early thirties. Under normal circumstances, when Jiang Long's children grow up, they will only be in their forties.

Such Gaoshi are very patient.

You can wait forever.

Wait for the person you are waiting for to appear.

Of course, there are also people who spend their entire lives without waiting.

After talking about people, let’s talk about money. Naturally, you should bring more when you go out. This is Mrs. Jing’s idea.

When you go to a place, you not only have to live a good life, but you also sometimes have to take care of your superiors.

But Jiang Long shook his head and refused. He would never do such a thing as taking care of Shangguan.

And with his ability, he is still afraid that he will not be able to make any money?

To put it simply, it would be enough to start the business of story books and embroidered puppets wherever you go to take office.

After Mrs. Jing heard Jiang Long's thoughts, she didn't persuade him much.

After discussing the big things, there are still some trivial matters, such as how many clothes to bring, whether to travel by horse or carriage, etc.

These are all taken care of by the women in the mansion.

So the exotic beauty Dai Lisi, who took care of the affairs of the house, appeared in Jiang Long's sight again.

Jiang Long always felt that this woman was not simple, so he always kept a distance from her.

In the days that followed, Jiang Long frequently visited the capital, sometimes visiting Mu Wuhou's mansion. Mrs. Diexiang entertained her warmly. However, Jiang Long never saw Mu Wuhou again. Sometimes he went to the printing factory to arrange matters. Chai Shirong was interested in Jiang Long's latest

I was very interested in what I was told, so I used my connections in the house to cooperate fully.

At noon that day, Jiang Long walked out of Muwuhou's mansion.

Just now Mrs. Diexiang told him that the decree was coming soon.

After bringing the guards to the printing factory, Jiang Long told Chai Shirong that it was time to take action.

Chai Shirong immediately took command, and the printing plant became busier than usual.

On the second day, a very novel thing appeared in all the places in the streets and alleys that had sold the scripts of Bogutongjin Printing Factory.

It's just a simple five-page paper with text printed on the front and back.

It aroused the curiosity of many scholars.

A young scholar bought a copy with the words "Dingsheng Newspaper" written in four large characters on the front.

Next, when I read it, the scholar clapped his hands and applauded from time to time, and then he became deeply addicted to it.

In the palace, in front of the old emperor's dragon case, there is also a prosperous newspaper.

"That boy from the Jing family has so many tricks up his sleeve. The stories in this newspaper are very attractive. I think the business will be good." The old emperor said coldly after reading the newspaper.

In accordance with Jiang Long's instructions, some pages of the Hengsheng newspaper published poems and songs by literati, and some pages wrote in vernacular the famous battles in which many famous generals killed the enemy. Of course, there must be some embellishments.

You must have unparalleled martial arts skills and strategize!

This will make it more readable.

Then, on the front of the smallest page, some current affairs news was printed, which I didn’t dare to fake.

For example, where the county magistrate is very capable and manages his people well.

Which county magistrate is very good at solving cases, never makes mistakes, catches the real culprit every time, and there is not a single unsolved case in the county.

Where the bully was caught, where the bandits were surrounded and suppressed by the imperial court, where the official had a noble character, and which official was extremely filial.

Naturally, the story will be added later.

Poems and songs are very attractive to literati, and the stories of military commanders becoming famous are very attractive to military people.

Some wealthy family heads and officials are very interested in current affairs.

Coupled with the last word, this story can attract the lowest level of ordinary people, so the sales volume is naturally very popular.

Of course, the people at the bottom are not very literate and have poor purchasing power. However, there are too many rich people in the capital, and newspapers are sold cheaply. As long as the family has a small amount of assets, they can subscribe for a long time.

The old eunuch frowned at this time, "Why do you think this young man from the Jing family has other agendas?"

"I am also suspicious, but I can't guess it." The old emperor felt the same way.

"Why don't the emperor decree that such newspapers are no longer allowed to be published?" the old eunuch suggested.

But the old emperor shook his head, "If you don't let him take action, how can you tell what ulterior motives he has?" At this point, a confident look flashed on the old emperor's face, "Is it possible, you think?

I can't fight against a young boy?"

"I don't dare, old slave." The old eunuch said hurriedly.

But deep down, I was worried that this might be the work of the forces behind the Jing family boy.

In the East Palace, the prince was also reading the newspaper in his hand.

After he read it, a group of confidants immediately came up with ideas to ask the prince to suppress the printing factory.

It's just that the printing house didn't break the law. These methods were all shady, and the printing house was the property of Duke Cheng. How could they do it so easily?

There are many civil servants in the prince's camp, and they are already at odds with the military commanders. If there is no good and reasonable excuse to target Duke Cheng for no reason, then the relationship with the military commanders will become even worse.

In the end it was settled.

Another day later, after Jiang Long returned to Jing Mansion, he went to see Mrs. Jing.

"The imperial edict will be issued in the next two days." This is what Mrs. Diexiang told Jiang Long.

"Yeah." The Jing Mansion has already made all the preparations. Mrs. Jing asked: "How is the sales volume of your latest newspaper?"

“It’s much higher than the sales volume of story books.”

Jiang Long replied: "But the profit of each newspaper is lower."

"It's okay. If you have any ideas in the future, just go ahead and do it. Grandma will fully support you." Madam Jing also vaguely felt something.

"Thank you, grandma." Jiang Long said respectfully.
