Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 53
“Young Master, I bought the item for you.” Ji Zhong took out a small stack of booklets and handed them over to Chen Luo. Chen Luo took it. It was the “Wenbao” introduced by the coachman before.
Chen Luo carefully flipped through the newspaper. It was about fifteen or sixteen pages long, and there were a lot of poems recorded in it, which were categorized into different categories. There are advanced poems written by Confucian scholars who have been promoted to the “Poetry Realm”, and there are also appreciation and analysis of the poems of other famous scholars.
After turning over the chapters of the poems, the following are some of the teacher’s comments on some scriptures. These people have not yet reached the level of “writing books and making speeches”, and they can only express some of their own views on certain classics, and the space is not long.
The last part was actually a ranking list, which selected the top 100 Confucian scholars and the top 100 masters to rank, no one knows what the ranking was based on.
”For Confucian scholars it is called the talent list, and it is ranked according to the strength of the Confucian scholar’s talent.” Ji Zhong explained. “For Fuzi, it is called the Shanhai Ranking, and it is ranked according to the amount of feedback from the Heavenly Dao in Mountains and Seas of Books.”
Chen Luo looked at Ji Zhong: “It doesn’t have your name!”
Ji Zhong: (╬◣д◢)
Ji Zhong: I will be there sooner or later.
Chen Luo: Then hurry up, you have become a poetic realm, and then you will have to fight the mountain and sea list.
Ji Zhong: (�へ�メ)
Chen Luo smiled, and then went back to business: “Are there many similar papers?”
Ji Zhong was stunned for a moment and shook his head: “How could there be so many? Only Wenchang Pavilion has the confidence to collect poetry from all over the world, and it can guarantee that every issue will be explained by the meaning of the scriptures. There are some local literary academies that do similar things, but It’s all localized.”
”In addition to the text newspapers, there are also mansion newspapers in this form, which record some court decisions and major events in the world. Every day at the post station, you can buy the mansion newspapers issued the day before.”
”In the end, it’s the kind of grass newspaper you showed me, son. That kind of stuff, like weeds, exists everywhere. It’s all vulgar content, and it’s just a little bit of silver taels from businesses publishing information.”
Ji Zhong told Chen Luo everything he knew in one breath, Chen Luo nodded slightly, and the truth was exactly what he thought.
In view of the fact that the way of heaven in this world is in the player’s simulator, in fact, the whole world is in a state of “don’t hear anything outside the window, and only read the books of sages”.
Apart from brothel casinos, there is no entertainment.
Apart from street news, there is no gossip.
Yawen’s limitations of the way of heaven even infiltrated into ordinary texts, and there are no fictional legends.
This is really-
Great!
”Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie…” Chen Luo let out a night-owl-like laughter, so terrifying!
”Young Master?” Ji Zhong thought for a moment that something was possessed by Chen Luo, so he wanted to hit him with a righteousness.
”Xiao Ji!” Chen Luo looked at Ji Zhong with a smile, “You said, this young master also wants to run a newspaper publication, how about it?”
…
Wei Yan offered a cup of fragrant tea: “Teacher, how is the observation on the boy?”
The black-faced Confucian Song Tuizhi took the fragrant tea and glared at Wei Yan: “What do you mean boy? If the old man approves of him then he becomes your little uncle, do you have any courtesy!”
Wei Yan’s face froze, and he sneered: “But he’s still not there yet right?”
Song Tuizhi didn’t bother about this topic, and asked, “Marquis Qu Li, do you know who he is? What kind of grievance does he have with Chen Luo?” ”
Wei Yan thought about it for a while: “Marquis Qu Li? Former Minister of Rites Qi Xing famously went to the barbarian territory and wanted to link up with a small tribe of barbarians, but was beheaded by the big barbarian king! The court pursued the title of Marquis Qu Li, and passed it on to the only son Qi Huaiyu, it’s just an idle marquis title, why did the teacher mention it?”
”It’s after the loyal minister. Today he wants to do something unfavorable to Chen Luo! Do the two have grievances?”
Wei Yan frowned and shook his head: “The two have never met. But Qi Huaiyu, this son, has neglected discipline since childhood and is arrogant and domineering.”
”If I’m not wrong, it should be Qi Huaiyu’s jealousy of Chen Luo’s “Tales of Zhong Kui ” and wants to forcibly take a copy. In his eyes, Chen Luo is just a wild boy from a remote place. He has no good background and no backer. “
”There are many children of officials like this in Zhongjing. Maybe there is someone behind Qi Huaiyu himself, throwing stones to ask for directions!”
Song Tuizhi nodded, stood up, and walked out.
”Teacher, where are you going?”
Song Tuizhi: “The fault of raising a bad son lies on the father. Since his father has passed away, it’s his grandfather’s problem. The old man will go to fight Qi Kexiu and let him take good care of his grandson!”
As soon as the words fell, Song Tuizhi disappeared in front of Wei Yan, Wei Yan sighed and continued to make tea for himself.
”My teacher’s temper has not changed for so many years!”
…
”Running a newspaper?” Ji Zhong looked at Chen Luo with disgust, “Young master, why are you doing that stuff?”
Looking at Ji Zhong’s expression, Chen Luo thought of the words of the eunuch Wang Li again.
”To earn the face of the Earl’s Mansion!”
Chen Luo looked at Ji Zhong angrily: “What kind of newspaper do you think I can run?”
”Naturally it’s a draft report!” Ji Zhong replied without thinking, “You can’t do the “Wenbao” either…”
”What if I serialize “Laughing with the Wind” on it?”
Ji Zhong was stunned and held back for a long time: “Young master, why bother, why don’t you just compile and publish it directly?”
”It’s too expensive!” Chen Luo sighed, “Many people can’t afford a whole book of Yawen. If you buy it chapter by chapter, everyone can afford it.”
”Actually, the main thing is to have a fixed publishing channel. After all, I still have a lot of books.” Chen Luo added in his heart.
At this moment, Ji Zhong was moved by Chen Luo’s statement. He is not from a wealthy family either. With his talent, he cultivated the realm of poetry, and the hardships are no longer rare. The most difficult thing is to ask for books. If books are split and sold separately, it will give many people a choice.
What he didn’t know was that in the past life, after reading a chapter of martial arts novels, there would be no other choices.
”Young Master is benevolent!” Ji Zhong stood up and bowed, “Ji Zhong must follow you with all his strength!”
Chen Luo looked at Ji Zhong in surprise, did he just release his domineering aura?
…
”The most important aspects of running a newspaper are three links.” Chen Luo pondered, “Content, printing, and distribution!”
”For the content, just the serialization of “Laughing with the Wind” is not enough, other sections must be opened up!”
”If you want to print, go to Wei Yan’s place and walk around to see if you can pull out a little wool. Bah, can you call it pulling out in the world of scholars? It’s called resource sharing!”
”The most important thing is that it is released. It is best to get the official channels in order to spread it out.”
”But right now, we can do a pilot from Zhongjing first. For example… la la la, la la la, I’m a little connoisseur of newspaper sales…”
Classic Occupation in Ancient and Modern China and Foreign Countries: Newsboy!
”Things need to be solved one by one! First, think about what else besides the Wuxia serialization?”
”Social news? No, it’s too labor-intensive.”
”Submission from readers? Forget it, where is the editor!”
”Ask someone to open a column? Well, I can’t afford to pay for the manuscript!”
”Is it also the content of the draft newspaper? No, no, the face of the Earl’s Palace!”
”Poetry… I’m tired of fighting for the market with the newspapers.”
Chen Luo never expected that the plan was very rich, and the reality was very skinny. His plan for running a newspaper was stuck on the layout content from the beginning…
”Besides the martial arts serialization, what else can I write about?”
