"Think about it, if there is such a newspaper, not to mention daily, it is sold every ten days, the price is cheap, one or two cents a piece, and there are articles written by important ministers in the court and even His Majesty himself, is there such a newspaper? People buy it, is there anyone chasing after it?”
"Yes, there must be!"
Li Shimin patted the table with an excited expression.
Even Fang Xuanling and several other old men in their decades could not hide their emotions.
The more you think about it, the more you understand the great influence this trip has on the government.
Nowadays, if a decree is to be widely spread among the people, the manpower and material resources consumed are unimaginable.
Posting articles and publishing lists, talking about words and deeds, it's so slow.
Sometimes the implementation of policies is not because the court is too efficient, but because of the flow of information.
And sometimes even if a lot of manpower and material resources are spent, the results achieved are not satisfactory.
But if there is such a newspaper, just to understand the policies of the court, there will definitely be countless people chasing to buy it, not to mention that Su Fan just said that the price is not expensive!
Tang Sufan then continued.
"Well, since many people buy it and the price is cheap, this newspaper is not as boring as the Four Books and Five Classics. It has too much content. Will there be many scholars reading the newspaper to other neighbors? That many people Isn’t it also possible to cover illiteracy?”
"Yes, Su Fan is right!"
Wei Zheng's eyes were already shining, and he couldn't find any loopholes.
Seeing Wei Zheng's consistent agreement, Li Shimin couldn't help but be speechless. Why did this farmhouse man come to this boy every time?
Then the leverage physique has completely disappeared?
Wei Zheng, I advise you to watch your face~
"In this way, over a long period of time, hasn't this newspaper become a sharp tool for editors and directors?"
After Tang Sufan finished speaking, the five surprised babies with shocked faces were left to go on their own~
He coolly took some boiled water and moistened his throat.
Once this newspaper is published, the first step Tang Sufan will have to do is to use public opinion to protect himself and make the family dare not act rashly.
As for the rest, if Tang Sufan can't deal with him, he will be sorry for his nine years of compulsory education and so many years of online surfing experience in his previous life~
Li Shimin was already excited and secretly suppressed his inner excitement, but he couldn't help but look refreshed.
Use the endorsement of the emperor and the court to guarantee the newspaper, so that the newspaper can be spread as much as possible, and wait until people are convinced of the information.
Does that mean you can bring in private goods? Can you brag for the emperor at any time?
To incite the students and the people, the aristocratic family has to spread the word slowly. If the royal family has such a treasure, there is no need to incite. A single proclamation may cause chaos in the world!
I think back then, when Li Yuan revolted, I don’t know how much effort was put into trying to stir up public opinion.
But now when he comes to Li Shimin, he has such a big surprise!
"That's why I asked you to ask Li Er for endorsement, do you understand?"
Since he secretly knew the identity of this old boy, Li Er's scream became less and less stressful.
And Li Shimin has even become accustomed to it, in case this kid suddenly stops barking one day.
He would also wonder if this kid had figured out his identity?
"So, this newspaper can only be run if it bears the name of the royal family. With their recognition, we can sit back and relax~"
"In the future, even if someone wants to run a newspaper and cannot stop it, we can set up an audit agency in the court and let this agency be responsible for auditing the distribution of newspapers. Once false information appears, it will be shut down immediately!"
Li Shimin's heart suddenly trembled, his eyes sharpened, and he immediately had the idea of killing anyone who ran a newspaper again!
"Don't worry, Su Fanzhen. What you said today will be reported back the same way. You kid has made another great contribution!"
Tang Sufan looked at Li Shimin with amusement in his eyes and said: "Tsk, I haven't seen Li Er give me a reward for my meritorious service. Tell me, is Li Er a bit stingy? I solved such a big trouble for him. Thank you." Not even a word~"
Li Shimin's old face turned red, then he coughed and replied.
"Ahem, isn't it that you have always been uninterested in fame and wealth? That's why I have always said that you are a hermit who wanders around the clouds and wild cranes. How can you say that Li Er is stingy?"
"Let's not talk about this anymore, Su Fan, what should we do with this newspaper business?"
Li Shimin quickly changed the subject. There was also his minister here. This guy arranged for Li Er not to know what to say if he got high.
"In this way, you clean up the shop, and then I take the time to go to the Confucius Mansion. Then I will go back and set up the workshop in Jinghe Village. In less than seven days, if it is more compact, the newspaper will be able to publish it~"
Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Why are you going to the Confucius Mansion?"
"Hey, you don't have to worry about this, the mountain man has his own clever plan~"
This kid is still pretending~
But it's rare to see this guy working so diligently, so I don't want to talk about him. Anyway, this guy is a bit tired in doing things.
But he is relieved~
"But who are you going to put in charge of this newspaper? Or will you put someone in charge?"
Li Shimin raised his eyes and couldn't help but ask.
Tang Sufan tapped the table with his slender fingers and said, "I have a choice in mind~"
"who?"
"Ma Zhou~"
Li Shimin thought for a moment and then remembered.
While drinking water, he asked: "You believe in that Ma Zhou so much?"
"Naturally, we need to find someone who is dedicated to public service and has a righteous heart to take charge of the newspaper. This will save us a lot of worry when the time comes."
"Since you believe in him so much, why not try to get an official status with him?"
Of course, the person this kid is interested in should be nowhere to be found.
But this person has no merit, I'm afraid no one will believe him.
"I can't get it, can you get it?"
Tang Sufan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"That's natural. Although I don't have an official status now, of course some small officials and officials still have ways to do it!"
Li Shimin raised his eyes, looking very arrogant and different from the past.
Tang Sufan waved his hands boredly, not paying attention to Li Shimin's demeanor that he thought was full of details.
"Okay, okay, whatever you want~"
This newspaper matter was a complete surprise for Li Shimin!
And it’s a huge surprise!
"But... when this newspaper was first published, few people could believe this novelty~"
Tang Sufan nodded, and then said with a smile: "I still thought of this~ Isn't it just to attract attention~"
"As long as your thoughts don't slip, there are always more solutions than difficulties~"
"Oh? What's your clever idea?"
Li Shimin asked with a smile, this guy always has a way to solve things.
"Old Li, tell me, if I publish the Butterfly Lovers story I told you that day in the newspaper, will anyone read it?"
"That's natural!"
Li Shimin's expression perked up, as if he knew what this kid could do.
"Come on, I'm bored now. Let me tell you a story. Do you want to hear it?"
As he spoke, a certain kind of storyteller's DNA in Tang Sufan moved again.
Oh, another story?
"Oh? Tell me quickly~"
While they were talking, Zhang, Sun Wuji and the other four were also ready to listen with smiles on their faces.
This boy is a disciple of the Immortal Sect, so what he sees and hears is naturally not something that mortals can hear~
Tang Sufan pondered slightly and smiled. Then he pressed his fingers on his temples.
After a while, Xiaoran's expression appeared.
"The poem says: Chaos is undivided, heaven and earth are chaotic, and no one can see the vastness. Since Pangu broke through the Hongmeng, it opened up the distinction between the clear and the turbid. It supports all living beings to look up to the benevolence, and discovers that all things are good. If you want to know the original power of creation, you must read " "Journey to the West"..."
