Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 64

[Chapter 64]

“Sir, I have found out everything.” After eating the noodles called back from Deyue Tower, Ji Zhong wiped his mouth full of oil and said, “The most difficult part of running a new newspaper is copying. !”

Chen Luo hiccupped after tasting the “Cold Spring Brew” secretly made by Deyue Tower. It tasted exactly like the happy fat house water from his previous life. A cup actually costs one tael of silver.

But he is also an uncle with a monthly income of 100,000, so what is this little money. In this world, the most indebted thing is eating and drinking.

Let them send two more tanks tomorrow!

“Scribe? Why do you say that?” Chen Luo asked.

“If it’s a grass newspaper on the street, all the newspapers are written in plain language. That’s easy. Find some engraving workshops for typesetting and printing. But my son, your story must be written in elegant language.”

Chen Luo nodded, although he wrote The stories that come out have no restrictions on the readers’ talent for reading through, but they still need Yawen as a bridge to communicate with the Dao of Heaven.

Ji Zhong took a bite of his elbow and continued: “There is no way to print Yawen, it needs to be written manually. Confucian scholars master the technique of ‘writing a thousand words’, which can be used for copying and copying, and can write millions of words a day. Great righteousness!”

“There is an establishment in Wenchang Pavilion, called the Transcription Department, which is dedicated to the transcription of newspapers. The Transcription Department in Zhongjing is mainly responsible for the newspapers of the Zhongjing and Zhili generations.”

“We don’t have a transcription department . !”

Chen Luo squinted his eyes and asked, “Does the Transcription Department accept outsourcing?”

“Outsourcing?”

“I hired them to copy for me!”

Ji Zhong took a big gulp of meat stuck in his throat Only then did Lengquan Niang recover, and said with a wry smile: “My lord, the people in the Transcription Department have other duties on weekdays, but they will perform the transcription three days before the publication of the newspaper.”

Chen Luo put down his chopsticks, thinking in his mind, according to his thinking, he planned to publish a weekly newspaper, once a week. Every update of martial arts novels is about 15,000 words. If a Confucian student can write a million words a day, that means one person can be in charge of sixty-six new newspapers a day, excluding the rest of the publication day, that is four hundred.

Of course, people can’t use it to death like this. If you fold it in half, it will be two hundred shares.

At present, you can consider Zhongjing City first. Relatively speaking, the Yawen literacy rate in Zhongjing City is also the highest in Daxuan, and it is a very important market.

He had asked Xiao Shiyuan before that Zhongjing City, together with the inner and outer cities, has a total population of more than 8 million people. Their newspapers are only in Beijing, and more than 300,000 copies are issued every month, and the supply exceeds demand. Wenchang Pavilion is planning to increase to more than 500,000 copies.

Considering the unlimited talent of reading through, the audience of his new newspaper is definitely several times that of Wenbao, and it is estimated that millions of copies will be sold if it is really fully spread.

But at the beginning of the current stage, you can’t eat a fat man in one bite, and test the water with a base of 10,000 servings.

That is to say, fifty Confucian scholars who are full-time copyists are needed.

fifty? Sprinkle the water…

Chen Luo was sure, poured himself another glass of cold spring wine, and asked, “How much is the monthly salary of a full-time copyist Confucian scholar?”

“Eight hundred taels!”

Chen Luo took a choke: “How much?”

“Eight hundred taels!” Ji Zhong confirmed with blinking eyes.

“That’s not right!” Chen Luo waved his hand, “Look, for example, Nanyuan Xi, I heard that his monthly salary in Beifeng Tower is only thirty taels of silver. He is also a Confucian scholar. If he copied it for a month With 800 taels of words, why is he talking about Mr. Wen? Also, I saw that there are also many down-and-out Confucian scholars in the capital, who can’t afford to eat poorly, why don’t they take the job of copying?”

Ji Zhong shook his head: “My lord, you have lost your mind. ‘Writing a Thousand Words’ is not something everyone can master, at least you have to reach the realm of ‘Three Points of Penetration’ to comprehend calligraphy. For example, I haven’t mastered it yet. As for you, you can write “Laughing” The reason why the “Proud Jianghu” was so fast is because you are the original work, my son, and you can finish it overnight. Otherwise, if you try to transcribe other books, you will be able to write thousands of words a day.”

“Ordinary Confucian scholars are worthless. As long as you have a thorough reading Talent, reciting classics every day, after a few decades, you will naturally be a Confucian scholar. Even if you are in the realm of writing or poetry, the power of Haoran Zhengqi depends on the background. Many people are not even enough to be caravan guards. Ge! Life is naturally desolate.”

“It is different for Confucian scholars who can advance to the realm of ‘Three Points of Penetration’ calligraphy. It’s not too expensive!”

“Eh…” Chen Luo understood, he thought that this job could be done by a college student, but that’s not enough for everyone on the street, and it turns out that he needs a high-tech professional counterpart!

It’s high-level professionals.

“Eight hundred taels per month for one person, 40,000 taels a month for 50 people. It’s 50,000 taels for rewards, marketing, and salaries for other personnel! I can issue four newspapers a month, with a total of 40,000 taels.” That newspaper costs at least one or two or three cents to recover the cost.”

“My psychological price for the new newspaper is about one-third of a silver. There is a shortfall of one or two silver in the middle.”

“Now it is only ten thousand copies , If I want to spread it all over the world, I will lose money…”

“But the more people who read it, the higher the rate of generating mortal air will be, and the more feedback I can receive, the smoother my practice will be!

” You have to think about it, how did the capitalists in the previous life control costs?

The price of professional talents is lower than the market price, and the labor side will not have any complaints. The key is stability.

Chen Luo thought about it carefully.

volunteer?

No, the liquidity is too strong and not very stable.

That……

Chen Luo’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he thought of the famous show operations of those companies in his previous life-

cooperate with the school!

Chen Luo suddenly looked at Ji Zhong: “Xiao Ji, I remember that you were going to study at Zheliu Academy in Zhongjing, right?”

Ji Zhong nodded, “Yes, Mr. Qifeng Wang of Zheliu Academy gave it to me. I made a recommendation. I originally planned to ask the young master for leave tomorrow and go to Mr. Wang’s place. After the period of guarding that I promised the young master is over, I will go to Zheliu Academy.”

“Wang Qifeng?” Chen Luo rolled his eyes, This matter needs to be well planned.

…

Zheliu Academy.

“Head of the academy, the statistics are out.” Wang Qifeng saluted Kong Tianfang uprightly, then glanced at the heads of other colleges, and did not continue.

“It’s okay, let’s hear it.” Kong Tianfang knew Wang Qifeng’s concerns and said directly.

“Yes!” Wang Qifeng continued, “Today, there are 963 students in Shengwen Square, 153 of them are angry from the inside to the outside; 96 of them From the state of self-seeing to the state of writing; sixty-three people have advanced from the state of writing to the state of poetry. Almost all the students’ righteous energy reserves have increased by at least 10%.”

“In addition, Yang Ziting, who is in the Xuanzi grade, has been promoted from the enlightenment state to the teacher. Master of Kaihua Realm! Other masters also have increased righteousness, but not as obvious as students.”

After Wang Qifeng finished the statistical results, he stood aside with his hands tied, and the hall was silent for a while.

After a while, a middle-aged woman said slowly, “Is it all because of the article “Du Shiniang Sinks the Treasure Box in Anger”?”

Wang Qifeng nodded.

It was quiet again.

After a while, a majestic head of the academy said: “Nanyuanxi wants to visit our academy!” “That makes

sense!”

Kong Tianfang took a sip of tea calmly, and glanced at the head of the House of Representatives.

“Everyone, don’t be so tricky… Don’t use Nanyuanxi to talk about things, let’s open the skylight and talk about Wan Anbo’s affairs carefully.

” He doesn’t even give face to the Ministry of Rites, and he is a disciple of Zhusheng. My family of Zheliu Academy can’t climb high, and neither can you. It needs everyone’s joint efforts!

” What else can I write next?”

“That’s the real treasure chest!” The

head of the House couldn’t help but smile awkwardly when Kong Tianfang broke his heart, and echoed—

“Yeah, this matter needs to be carefully planned!”

Staying up late to watch the game , even later. . There is one more tonight.

Continue to ask for monthly tickets and recommendations. .
