Zhu Ying was very serious, and he did not agree to Lu Zhou's proposal.
"It's nothing to be spanked. My eldest brother has been famous all his life. He is destined to surpass Confucius. How can he help me write this kind of article! Even if he is willing, I will not agree. No matter how much profit there is, I will not
I won’t agree!”
These words really shocked the sages. It turns out that you still care about Prime Minister Zhang’s reputation!
It seems that Zhang Xiang's pain for you has not been in vain.
"Master Hou, you finally still have a conscience, we are determined to follow you for the rest of our lives!"
The sages were greatly moved, patting their chests and expressing their loyalty to Zhu Ying.
But Zhu Ying is so angry. What do you think I am?
Why do you think I don’t understand anything?
Among the important ministers who were knighted that day, apart from the three princes, Zhu Ying was the one.
Who doesn’t know Lao Zhu’s intentions yet?
It's just that Zhang Ximeng's contribution was too great and his status was too special, making him the same as Li Shanchang. Lao Zhu felt indebted, so he gave the extra grace to Zhu Ying.
In other words, just because of Zhang Ximeng's overflowing credit, he and Zhu Ying became the Marquis of Xiping. You can already tell how terrifying Zhang Ximeng's status is.
Of course, after Lao Zhu officially ascended the throne, the Ministry of Rites drew up a list of titles... Among them, Hu Dahai, Chang Yuchun, Hua Yun, Fei Ju, Wu Zhen and others were all awarded marquis.
Zhu Ying was not so eye-catching among the crowd of Hou Hou.
But considering that Zhu Wenzheng and Li Wenzhong were also earls, he became a little more prominent.
Anyway, no matter what, in the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Ximeng and Zhu Ying are inseparable.
It is understandable that Zhu Ying does not want Zhang Ximeng's reputation to be tarnished... The deeply moved Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks got together and started a fierce brainstorming to help Zhu Ying come up with ideas.
After thinking about it, Lu Zhou finally came up with an idea.
"We can't ask Prime Minister Zhang to help us write articles. We can go to bookstores and ask them to help us print articles we have written!"
Zhu Ying almost burst out laughing, "What a clever idea you have! So clever! The one my eldest brother wrote is expensive in Luoyang. If you write it, who will pay to read it?"
Lu Zhou smiled and said: "Then it won't cost any money! We can just send it out for free... Lord Marquis, you are the commander-in-chief of the rear army. Don't tell me that you can't even get this little money?"
Zhu Ying's heart was pounding. Lu Zhou persuaded him. Sure enough, he, the commander-in-chief of the rear army, just had no money!
Not a penny!
Zhu Ying was speechless. A living person could die of thirst!
I don’t have any other money, and I still have the military salary from the youth camp.
"Don't ask for salary yet, I'll count your donations... When I make a lot of money, I'll share the dividends with you!" Zhu Ying said directly to his subordinates.
Everyone is going crazy. Zhu, you are such a bitch!
"I, we are going to find His Majesty and Prime Minister Zhang to file a complaint against you!"
Zhu Ying spread her hands and said, "Whatever... Anyway, you have messed up Lingnan's business. I will live my life, but if you want to make a fortune, you may not have this good opportunity."
A quarter of an hour later, these guys had no choice but to board Zhu Ying's pirate ship. Not only did they donate their salary, but they also agreed to help him distribute leaflets.
Done!
Brother is so right!
Sure enough, if you can tell stories, you can make a fortune.
After receiving the start-up capital, Zhu Ying was full of confidence and took action immediately.
He first found Gong Bosui and asked him to write a copy. After Zhu Ying read it, he threw it away.
"I want to tell everyone, not to study the Three Histories!"
Zhu Ying looked around and found that none of his men were suitable. He simply went to find Timur first. After all, this man had been very successful in business recently. Asking him to help write some promotional words would definitely have a good effect.
Zhu Ying went there, and when he came back, he already had thirty thousand guan in his pocket.
As the first businessman to decide to invest, Zhu Ying generously gave Timur a 40% discount.
But in Timur's opinion, this should be regarded as his royalties!
That's right, although what we wrote is not as expensive as Zhang Xiang's Luoyang paper, it is still valuable. And by the way, I can ride on Zhu Ying's chariot and get a piece of the pie in Lingnan.
Really good!
In this way, after intensive preparations, Zhu Ying finally took action. The wise men of the youth camp held flyers with the fragrance of ink and gave them away all over the world.
Wharfs, markets, Town God's Temples, schools, alleys, wherever there are more people, go wherever you go.
A few hundred years from now, distributing leaflets all over the world will definitely be a very poor thing and will only make people bored.
But nowadays, this kind of behavior can be called a dimensionality reduction attack.
Common people generally have a sense of awe towards things with words. Gulu
They were distributed all over the city and it became big news in an instant. Everyone wanted to know what happened, but you took one and I took them all.
As a result, Zhu Ying had to print three times in a row, and sent out tens of thousands of copies in total.
Fortunately, I got 30,000 yuan of start-up capital from Yexian Timur, otherwise Zhu Ying would have gone bankrupt.
It’s not easy to make money!
You have to be willing to buy a copy and at least spend money to print flyers, which is a lot of money!
Zhu Ying was anxiously waiting for the results, but he didn't know that when these advertising flyers went out, Yingtian City would be in chaos.
The first was Li Shanchang. He held a few leaflets and read them carefully. He couldn't help but exclaimed, "Zhang Xiang is really clever and unexpected!"
Lao Li was overjoyed, after all, he also had a share.
He got up and went to look for Zhang Ximeng. When he arrived at Zhang Ximeng's room, he found that two people were there. One was Zhang Ximeng's counselor Sun Yan, and the other was Zhang Ximeng's Jiang Nan. Not surprisingly, they both had some in their hands.
Holding flyers.
"I, can I say that this matter has nothing to do with me?" Zhang Ximeng said weakly.
The three of them all rolled their eyes. If we believed you, we would be fools!
With such an unexpected idea, who else could it be but you?
Zhang Ximeng didn't bother to explain...Zhu Ying's gang of Crouching Dragons and Phoenix Chus are indeed forward-thinking, and they occasionally come up with new ideas, so it's not surprising at all.
And my relationship with Zhu Ying cannot be explained clearly.
Zhang Ximeng held the flyer and said to Li Shanchang: "Brother Li, you have also seen it. The effect of this thing seems to be pretty good... Do you think the Ministry of Education can use it in the future?"
Li Shanchang was startled subconsciously, "It is indeed useful, but I can't figure it out for the moment, what can it be used for?"
Isn’t this nonsense!
Zhang Ximeng said: "Brother Li, we have so many government affairs that need to be explained to the people. In the past, I have written articles, and the Zhongshu Province has also published newspapers and posted notices for people to read them everywhere. This time we simply print them out, low-key
Just sell it at a reasonable price and let interested people buy it."
"This... this is a good idea!" Li Shanchang couldn't help but said: "Just writing these things, will the people be willing to read it?"
Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "It must be cultivated, and we print a few pieces of paper, which can contain folk stories, customs, poems and articles, opera appreciation, ancient and modern anecdotes... and commercial advertisements. We will intersperse important government affairs in it.
.”
Zhu Ying did not expect that his leaflet campaign would produce a newspaper in advance.
In fact, various publications in the past were already very lively, such as Zhang Ximeng's articles, the poems of talented scholars, and the opinions of other great Confucian scholars. They were tit for tat with each other, and they were fighting each other.
It's just that this time it needs to be fixed, with a special publication that publishes various news and is published regularly.
After Li Shanchang heard Zhang Ximeng's idea, he immediately became interested.
"Prime Minister Zhang, you see there has been such a big incident in the Ministry of Revenue recently. All the ministers and ministers were killed. Public opinion is raging and people are talking about it...Do you think we can rely on this thing to get to the bottom of things and suppress those messy conjectures? Cheng
If so, it’s a great achievement!”
Zhang Ximeng laughed loudly, "Brother Li is really agile...the right to speak is an extremely important thing, we must hold it in our hands. We cannot let those messy people influence us."
Li Shanchang was deeply convinced, "Prime Minister Zhang, please report this matter to His Majesty!"
Zhang Ximeng waved his hand, "Brother Li, you came up with the idea. You should take the lead. As for how to implement it, you have to shoulder it. If Brother Li doesn't mind, I am willing to write an inaugural article."
"good!"
Li Shanchang clapped his hands and laughed, "If there is an article written by Prime Minister Zhang, it will definitely open a business and business will be booming!"
Compared with Lingnan affairs, these two prime ministers paid more attention to things like newspapers, communicating up and down, delivering news, and enriching people's livelihood... This thing has many benefits.
For this alone, Zhu Yingcai should be highly commended.
But at this moment, Zhu Ying no longer cared about this. He finally realized what it meant to break the threshold.
Zhu Ying didn't know in the past that there were so many rich people in Yingtian!
The mortgage deposit of 50,000 pounds is not a problem at all.
Even if it is doubled, there is no problem. As long as we are allowed to participate in Lingnan's business, we are willing to pay any price. At this moment, Zhu Ying just wishes he could grow three heads and six arms.
There are so many good leeks, how can one sickle be enough?
Fortunately, as Zhang Ximeng said, Zhu Ying is still a little awe-inspiring. There must be a reason why so many people are flocking to him!
Zhu Ying secretly ordered the wise men to dispatch to investigate the cause.
Soon Lu Qiuyun sent the news back.
Zhang Ximeng has always advocated equalizing land and cracking down on tycoons. He has also established a food bank to provide low-interest loans... After such a complete set of operations, the money originally used to purchase land and lend money with interest has nowhere to go.
The huge Yingtian City, and even under Zhu Yuanzhang's rule, formed a huge barrier lake.
"Master Hou, with the land equalization in the past few years, the people have some savings in their hands and want to live a better life. Yingtian's workshop business is very busy. The businessmen are not stupid either. Now if they can get overseas timber and jewelry
, spices, make money with your eyes closed!" Lu Qiuyun sighed: "We are really going to get rich this time!"
Zhu Ying gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! In this case, we will increase the deposit to two hundred thousand! And there will also be a quota limit. Only twenty companies in the first batch are allowed to go south together!"
After the news spread, even more people came. Zhu Ying worked day and night. Ten days later, he stood in front of Zhang Ximeng with a list and said politely: "Brother, your story
