"That is, I am his only son. If he is not good to me, who will he be good to? If he makes me angry, he will have no son..." Liao Maoshi raised his chin, feeling proud.
Jing Haoxuan laughed.
Isn't he his father's only son?
It's just that his father felt that he was born in a wealthy family and couldn't bear such hardships, so he wanted to let him hit the wall.
Jing Haoxuan didn't know whether it was the south wall.
He only knew that this was what he wanted to do, and even if it took him a lifetime to do it, he would be happy to do it.
After chatting with his friend for a while, Jing Haoxuan continued to lower his head and improved the design of the wooden cow and flowing horse.
Seeing how serious he was, Liao Maoshi opened his mouth to say something, but then swallowed it back.
well……
Forget it, don't go if you don't want to go. At worst, he will stay here during the day and go back after the reunion dinner in the evening.
Liao Maoshi didn't dare not even eat the reunion dinner. He was afraid that his father would be mad and take him back and put him in solitary confinement.
Even if Jing Haoxuan is kicked out alone, if he is also imprisoned, what will the penniless Jing Haoxuan do? Is he drinking from the northwest wind?
During these days, Jing Haoxuan designed several small things, but after Jing's father said hello, no one dared to accept Jing Haoxuan's designs.
There was no way, because Jing Haoxuan was still young and didn't want to get involved in the "conflict" between father and son.
…
"Natural History" doesn't know if it's not sorted out, and I'm shocked when it's sorted out.
Maid Dong Dong really didn't expect that "Natural History" could actually make so much money?
Although she knew that "Natural History" was easy to buy, she only thought that the newspaper made a little money, but now it seems...
The eldest maid Dongdong looked at the numbers on the report and decided to talk to Gu Qingling first.
Although Master Yao Jiu is the young master of the family, and the "Natural History Journal" is not run by the young master alone, there are several other princes and grandsons, but so much money...
If this spreads out, many people will be moved.
"So much money?!"
Gu Qingling was also a little surprised. As the cost of movable type printing and paper decreased, the price of newspapers also dropped.
"Nuwuzhibao" is originally a project to benefit the people, and it is also a low-priced newspaper.
However, "Natural History" has certain requirements for readers, so it is more expensive than "Da Ming Daily", costing six cents a copy.
"Da Ming Daily" makes money because it makes small profits but quick sales. Officials, scholars who want to take imperial examinations, businessmen who want to understand the trends in the DPRK, etc. will buy a copy.
But "Natural History" is different. The audience of readers of "Natural History" will be smaller, either those who are interested in ingenious and obscene skills, or those who are interested in princes and grandsons.
In this way, in Gu Qingling's view, "Nusu Zhi Bao" definitely does not have as high an income as "Da Ming Daily".
But Lu Qingling's information was a bit low. In addition to the newspaper itself, "Natural History" also has other supplements, as well as special issues or other derivatives that may be added at any time.
It can be said that Yao Jiuye brought over all the stuff from Jinling Newspaper Agency.
If you can use it, try to use it.
Anyway, "Natural History" does not belong to him alone. The princes, princes and grandsons took action, and they can be said to be "rich and wealthy". They don't have to worry about technology and cost, as long as they are creative enough.
Therefore, "Nusu Zhi Bao" has more content and quality than ordinary newspapers, and it can be said to be "regardless of cost".
Of course, because of this, the "Natural History Journal" is also quite "willful" in its operation. It often comes up with a special issue, supplement, etc., as if it "all depends on the mood."
When these things are added up, won't the profits of "Natural History Journal" rise slowly by the end of the year?
The eldest maid Dong Dong nodded: "Yes, Princess, that's all. I have calculated it several times. Unless the account reported below is a false account, there is no way there will be any mistakes. Princess has settled the account, so Princess can rest assured."
"I'm not worried. You've been with me for so long. Which of these big and small accounts are you not responsible for?" Gu Qingling laughed, "I never expected that this "Natural History" could actually make so much money. Originally
It's just a hobby, but it can be done so well, which also shows the strength of these children and their hard work."
Gu Qingling had no intention of doing anything and let Dong Dong follow Yao Jiuye's arrangements.
Since they earned it, it's up to them how they want to spend it.
No matter how much she earns, she is not jealous.
Of course, for taxes and the like, Gu Qingling still asked the maid to help with the accounting again in the winter. Don't pay too little, and let the Ministry of Accounts come to her door when the time comes.
Money is a trivial matter, but for these princes and grandsons, face is more important.
At the same time, Gu Qingling was also thinking about asking Yao Jiuye to apply for various "patents" next year.
Now that he has a laboratory and people who can invent and create things under his control, he cannot let the patent slip through the cracks.
Only by applying for a patent and releasing it to businessmen can the interests of all parties be ensured.
"So many things?"
In the evening, Gu Qingling greeted Li Wenchong.
Li Wenchong was very surprised and quickly asked Gu Qingling to give him the report so that he could take a look.
Upon seeing this, Li Wenchong said: "I didn't expect that the Natural History Journal was so profitable. Are all newspapers so profitable?"
Gu Qingling rolled her eyes: "Are you just trying to make money by working as a newspaper? It's not that easy. Some of the newspapers at my Jinling newspaper office have never made any money, just enough to survive."
She also asked Li Wenchong, apart from the "Da Ming Daily" that makes money at Royal Newspapers, do other tabloids make that much money?
no?
"This is... the Royal Newspaper is no better than the Jinling Newspaper. All content can be published. The Royal Newspaper is a state-owned media, and only some more orthodox content can be published." Suddenly, Li Wenchong thought of the "Royal Newspaper" run by Sun Li Zhen and others of the Three Emperors.
.
It is obviously a newspaper published by a prince and grandson, but it still uses the name "Royal Newspaper".
If you are not clear about it, you may think it is from the Royal Newspaper Company.
Emperor Mingguang kept a close eye on this newspaper, fearing that the Three Emperors, Sun Li Zhen and others might publish some bad content and ruin the reputation of the royal family.
Therefore, he also specially called Li Jin, the king of Jinjun, to ask questions.
Li Wenchong didn't know whether "Royal Newspaper" made money, but many people still bought this newspaper.
After all, if you want to take the imperial examination, you must read some "serious" things.
Even though the "Imperial Newspaper" mainly focuses on the Four Books and Five Classics, the hosts hired are either great scholars of the time or gentlemen from the Imperial College, so the quality is still quite high.
However, compared with the updated "Natural History", "Royal Newspaper" is slower, basically every half month.
"Do you think the Royal Newspaper can make money from this?"
Gu Qingling shook his head: "I'm afraid... it's a bit difficult. "Natural History" seems to have a smaller audience than "Royal Newspaper", but it updates frequently, and your son likes to publish various special issues, supplements, and various derivatives...
Moreover, the content of "Natural History Journal" is not only relatively novel, but the language is easy to understand, sometimes humorous, sometimes surprising, and particularly eye-catching. Even if you don't understand this topic and just want to have fun, it can be read as a miscellaneous book."
