"Tsk, Lao Fang, I just saw it from the outside. It's exactly what you said. Today's newspapers are selling like crazy. What's so good about this thing written in such a disgusting way? So many people like it. I think there are many readers who like it. Come join in the fun.”
Li Yuanzhao walked into the newspaper office carrying the newspaper with a puzzled look on his face.
He had even ridiculed Fang Zhengyi during his previous interview with the Beirong Mission.
Making such disgusting stuff simply lowers the quality of the newspaper. Unexpectedly, it sold out!
The newspaper readers were still having a heated discussion for the sake of a group of common people.
What a confusing act...
Fang Zheng crossed his legs and gnawed on an apple. When he saw Li Yuanzhao coming back, he threw an apple over with a smile.
"What am I talking about? People just like to see that!"
Li Yuanzhao sat opposite Fang Zhengyi and said with a look of disdain: "Didn't you say that newspapers can't write fake news? How is this different from fraud? Besides, this kind of thing has no value at all!"
Fang Zheng shook his head and said, "How can it be fake news? Life in the capital is not much better than in those small countries? We are just helping them express what is on their mind!"
"And this kind of news is actually valuable. Not to mention it is good for the newspaper's sales. At least the people have become more energetic after reading it! They are more confident! Their horizons have also been broadened!"
"Hey! What a joke! Is there any commoner in Da Jing who is not patriotic and still needs to read this? This news is just a fresh news for them. I don't think there is any need to keep doing this kind of news." Li Yuanzhao said disdainfully: "This is not called self-confidence, this is called inferiority complex! Only by being calm and calm, not taking pleasure in things or feeling sad about yourself, can you be called self-confidence!"
"Wait until I lead the army to defeat Utu in one fell swoop! Then the people of Dajing will still be confident without having to look at this thing!"
Are you leading an army?
Fang Zheng glanced at him.
Forget it, I have the temperament of a foreign student from Wala...
"What your Highness said is good, but they are ordinary people, so don't expect too much from them."
"Now that the wallet is flat, how can we gain confidence? We can't help them make money quickly, and it's impossible to fight a war."
"Then instead of improving yourself, it's better to belittle others!"
"Besides, this is called the wealth code! If the people like to read it, we can show it to them every day. Aren't the sales of newspapers going up?"
Li Yuanzhao thought for a while, looked at the apple with only the core left in his hand and said, "It seems to make sense. Get me another apple."
"Gone."
"Hey, I want to eat cold melon. Are there any in the market? Can someone buy some?"
"It's gone on the market, but there are still some in the greenhouses in Taoyuan County. If His Highness wants to eat, I'll send someone to bring some over tomorrow."
"Big shed?" Li Yuanzhao looked confused: "Why does it sound familiar?"
"It means planting crops in the house in winter and heating them with a stove, so that the crops can grow in winter. However, the technology is not yet mature. I remember mentioning the greenhouse to His Highness before, has His Highness forgotten?"
In fact, greenhouses have been tested in Taoyuan County for a long time. When Emperor Jing came to Taoyuan County for the first time, he accidentally saw others buying cold melons to eat.
It's just that it has never been promoted vigorously, and it is not economically cost-effective. I can only grow some out-of-season vegetables and fruits for my own consumption.
Li Yuanzhao pinched his chin: "Oh, I seem to have an impression. Then wouldn't this allow farmers to farm in winter?"
I thank you on behalf of the farmers!
Fang Zheng smiled but didn't smile.
"The yield in greenhouses is not high, it is difficult to control, and the cost is extremely high. We can only grow vegetables and fruits with high value."
"Besides, the cold melons grown there are not very tasty and not sweet. Otherwise, I would have given them to His Highness last year."
"Wouldn't it be sweet if you sprinkle some salt on it?"
Hearing him talk about salt, Fang Zhengyi was suddenly stunned.
Shit...according to time, Xie Xian and the others should have returned to Jianjiang. I wonder what the situation is there.
It will take a month to wait for a reply.
If we continue to search southward, the communication of information back and forth will be too troublesome...
"Lao Fang! Lao Fang, did you hear what I said?"
"Ah? What did His Highness say?" Fang Zheng came to his senses and saw Li Yuanzhao looking at him with excitement.
"I said, if you have such good things in Taoyuan County, why don't you sell them outside for money?"
"I will help you take it to the palace and sell it! If you sell a melon to him for ten or twenty taels, you will say that it is a health-preserving melon!"
"Melons that can grow in winter obviously have miraculous effects, so why don't you make a lot of money?"
Seeing how excited he was, Fang Zhengyi looked a little weird.
Why did the prince become like this?
He is about to turn into an unscrupulous profiteer! He acts like a salesman who specializes in scamming old people into buying health care products.
Taught by Liu Jin? This dead eunuch actually misled the prince!
If your Majesty asks about this later, you must explain it carefully...
"Forget it, Your Highness, you can't make much money by eating or not eating a melon, there's no need!"
"I think..."
"Be honest and don't move!"
Just as Li Yuanzhao was about to speak, there was a burst of yelling at the door.
Then the door was pushed open.
Two young men walked in carrying a dirty old man. The moment they saw Fang Zhengyi, joy filled their faces.
"Ah! I have finally found you. I just went to your house and couldn't find you!"
Fang Zheng looked at them one by one and saw that these two people were from Taoyuan County, and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong? Who is this person?"
The two people immediately looked at each other: "Master, don't you know him?"
"This man was found by our county's monkey catching team from the mountain. He kept cursing. When we listened carefully, he seemed to be cursing you."
"After reporting to Mr. Ao Chen, I told him to bring him to see you and ask him if he is an important enemy!"
The old man's hair was disheveled, and his face was covered with white hair so that his expression could not be seen clearly, and he was still mumbling something.
"You will not die well...you will go to eighteen levels of hell..."
Fang Zhengyi frowned: "Pull his hair away."
Who is this person? I have no memory of offending such a person. He is so crazy.
When the hair was pushed away, the old man seemed to be stimulated when he saw Fang Zheng. He shouted: "Bold bitch! I can see at a glance that you are not a human! Hurry up and show your true colors!"
Dog demon?
Li Yuanzhao covered his mouth and smiled happily.
Fang Zhengyi's face quickly darkened and he looked at the old man carefully.
After recognizing him for a long time, his eyes gradually changed.
Isn't this Abbot Hongcheng of Fuyun Temple? Why is this so virtuous? He also went to the mountains of Taoyuan County!
Could it be that I heard that I ran away to take revenge in Taoyuan County...
Sin, sin!
"Abbot Hongcheng?" Fang Zhengyi asked cautiously.
Hongcheng was still hurling insults, but suddenly stopped when he heard someone calling his name.
Unbearable memories came to mind instantly.
Two lines of turbid tears plowed two furrows on the face...
"Fang Zhengyi, I'll fuck you*&%￥&@34%...."
"..."
Seeing that he could no longer stop, Fang Zheng quickly stuffed the apple core in his hand into Abbot Hongcheng's mouth.
Hongcheng immediately wolfed it down...
Seeing his miserable state, Fang Zhengyi couldn't bear it.
This monk really had no grudge against him, yet he was hurt so deeply.
After sighing, he pointed at Hongcheng and greeted the two young people from Taoyuan County: "Remember, this is my distinguished guest. If he gets mad, go back to the county to find someone to settle him."
"Tell Ao Chen to get two doctors to diagnose his illness, and give him a place to live. Go back."
The two men responded, turned around and left with Abbot Hongcheng in their arms.
Looking at Hongcheng's back, Fang Zhengyi sighed: "Your Highness, this is the consequence of not learning Buddhism to the fullest extent."
Li Yuanzhao said seriously: "Well, let's publicize it in the newspapers."
