Li Yuan couldn't help but take a deep breath, subconsciously glanced at the Datang Evening News casually placed aside, and asked thoughtfully.
"How much do you plan to sell a newspaper like this?"
"How much is it? The first period is free, and the second period starts with a copper plate——"
Wang Zi'an picked up the wine jug and was just about to fill it for a few people when Li Yifu snatched it away. Wang Zi'an smiled, this bitch is very clever.
"A copper!"
Pei Ji couldn't help but open his mouth.
He had previously served as Yang Guang's Luoyang Palace Supervisor and was in charge of the treasury. After joining Li Yuan, he had been helping Li Yuan with logistics, so he naturally knew the cost of a newspaper like this.
A penny will definitely not make back the cost!
Even if there is no need to copy, as Wang Zi'an said, printing tens of thousands of copies in one night will not work.
The cost of paper is there!
"Isn't this not enough capital? Are you trying to make a profit at a loss?"
Li Yuan glanced at Wang Zi'an, picked up a chopstick of mutton, put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly, and asked casually.
Zian's craftsmanship is simply the pinnacle of excellence.
The meals he cooks always make people have endless aftertaste, and they wish they could stay with him every day.
"The cost is naturally not enough. In addition to paper, printing and labor costs, for such a newspaper, according to Mr., the author needs to be given money to polish the writing. In total, it is not a small sum..."
Although Li Yifu doesn't know Li Yuan's identity, who is his husband?
These two old men have extraordinary bearing. To be their husband's guests is probably not something they take lightly.
In short, just take good care of yourself.
Therefore, like a good baby, Li Yifu stood up and poured wine for Li Yuan and Wang Zi'an, while explaining with a simple and obedient smile.
"What? You want to give the author money to polish his writing?!"
Li Yuan and Pei Ji couldn't help but stop their chopsticks, dumbfounded.
Not only do you help others post articles for free, but you also give them money——
This kid has so much money that his brain is going crazy, right?
Ah - no, even if Zian is rich and has lost his mind, his unlucky son can't. He is poor -
Sigh, why do you all have such expressions? I can’t help but want to ask the author how much he charges——
Seeing the expressions of Li Yuan and Pei Jiye, Wang Zian couldn't help but complain silently in his heart, and nodded with a smile.
"Of course I have to give this, especially the latter section. In the future, I plan to open a call for submissions. Regardless of the old, weak, women, children, or traffickers, as long as they can provide some clues and state the general facts, there will be corresponding royalties. Of course, if you can write it yourself
I’ll give you a little more——”
Ah, this——
Li Yuan and Pei Ji couldn't help being completely dumbfounded, and even Li Yifu, who had always had a big brain and accepted new things quickly, couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Wang Zi'an really never mentioned this to him.
Even the old, weak, women and children who provided the information were given money!
The key is that you directly bring scholars, traffickers, and common people to the same level...
"Sir, will this cause any resistance from those scholars——"
Although Li Yifu did not dare to object to Wang Zi'an's decision, he could not help but cautiously remind him.
"conflict?"
Wang Zi'an waved his hand indifferently.
"It's okay, then we'll add more money! As long as the money is in place, we won't have to worry about no one submitting articles - what's more, our circulation is large and our influence is great. I'm afraid that if we don't give them money, they will have to cry and beg.
Come to your door to provide contributions..."
Li Yuan and Pei Ji couldn't help but look at each other and reveal a wry smile.
They knew that although Wang Zi'an's words were a bit straightforward, they were probably true.
This is not a lack of thought, this is clearly the presence of the old god and he is confident!
My unlucky son is very lucky to have a talent like Zian as his assistant.
"Country slang and street talk can also be printed on this?"
Li Yuan's eyes couldn't help but look a little strange.
Wang Zi'an didn't care about him, enjoying his own craftsmanship while talking lazily.
"Yes, what's wrong? I'm just printing this for the common people. Isn't this market news just right for you?"
Li Yuan couldn't help but be speechless.
Wang Zi'an glanced at him and added lightly.
"What's more, everyone knows how to collect folk customs and listen to the sufferings of the people. Our newspaper is also the title of the emperor, and it must be handed over to the emperor and ministers for reading. Isn't it natural to learn from the ancients..."
When Li Yuan and Pei Ji heard this, they couldn't help but look stern, paused slightly in their hand movements, and subconsciously looked up at Wang Zi'an. Li Yifu also subconsciously straightened his back.
The newspaper I sponsored must be delivered to the desks of the emperor and prime ministers!
Directly to heaven!
"Are you trying to open a direct road to heaven for the people of the world?"
Pei Ji couldn't help but flash his eyes, showing a hint of surprise.
To be honest, he really didn't think of this.
When Wang Zi'an heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
"What is direct access to Heaven is not that exaggerated. It is just multiple channels of communication, so that those emperors and ministers who are above us can have multiple ways to understand the needs of the common people..."
"Zian, your newspaper is extraordinary. Even if it is endorsed by the emperor, it may not be safe without a mature and steady person to keep an eye on it. One mistake can lead to disaster——"
When Li Yuan said this, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. He pretended to raise his wine glass casually and gently touched it with Wang Zi'an.
"Although I am old, when I was young, I traveled all over the country and built a fortune. Although I am now in decline, I still think that my vision is still there and my work is relatively safe. Now I have nothing to do at home. If you don't
If you don't like it, I can come out and put my name here to help you keep an eye on it - you, the student, are a bit younger after all..."
When Li Yifu heard this, he almost exploded on the spot.
This old dog is really not a thing. Fortunately, I have always been respectful and respectful, but you ended up telling me little things in front of me in front of my husband!
"Sir, students will do their best and don't dare to make any mistakes——"
When Li Yifu heard this, he quickly stood up and gave his assurance with a red face.
This is a great opportunity to reach Tianting directly and become famous all over the world!
When Wang Zi'an heard this, his eyes lit up!
This is really possible!
It would be really great if Li Yuan personally served as a consultant for this newspaper.
Tsk, if you have the emperor’s endorsement in the front and the Supreme Emperor’s advisor in the back, then your newspaper is really stable!
As long as you don't risk your life by rebelling against Li Er in the newspaper, who can do anything to your newspaper!
