Chapter 59: Fiddling on fire

Some things just don't work just by giving them advice.

Zhao Xi could understand the six families' shelving of the report. After all, this was purely old wine and new wine. They thought it still had the same familiar taste, so no one tasted it again.

So Zhao Xi had to do it himself.

Zhao Xi first asked Wang Zhongzheng to inquire clearly about all the Cuju team information in Bianliang City, including the team owner, the composition of the team, the experience of each Cuju player over the years, etc.

I also learned about the arrangements for recent events and the probabilities of victory and defeat, including bounties and various auction information, from the princes' presentations.

Then, Zhao Xi wrote the first full-page article for the Cuju Newspaper. Based on the articles he wrote, he divided the pages of the Cuju Newspaper: team introduction, player experience and honors, event preview, auction information, victory and defeat.

Prejudgment, etc.

Zhao Xi almost wrote in vernacular, without many fancy words. He targeted the audience of Cuju News as being suitable for both refined and popular people, young and old.

"Your Majesty, let me inform my uncle's family that the first issue of the Cuju newspaper published content that the child made the pattern. You can follow this example in the future."

"The child cannot leave the palace, cannot know the situation outside the palace, and cannot know the real situation of the team and players in detail. I hope my uncle's family can recruit some scholars to write the article."

Queen Cao took the paper from Zhao Xi...she became more and more surprised as she read it.

How could Xi'er's talent be able to write such a vulgar article?

But she has been reading through the previous issues written by Zhao Xi... I have to say that this kind of article is really easy to read, and the different interpretations will not affect the judgment of the matter.

"Xi'er, just publish it like this?"

Empress Cao was still not sure. This was not an article at all, but a dialogue between villagers. Can such articles be published directly? It would be something similar to repayment.

"My Lady, this is how I publish it, and I will publish it this way in the future. Even if I ask for manuscripts and recruit contributors in the future, I will still ask for this kind of writing."

"Mother, I have a request. If possible, I kindly ask my uncle to print it overnight and sell it throughout Bianliang City tomorrow. I heard that there will be a competition the day after tomorrow, and I also mentioned it in this article. If it passes tomorrow,

The article loses its timeliness."

Zhao Xi really couldn't find the right words to express the timeliness at the moment, so he could only say this. Fortunately, if he understood it literally, the meaning was very clear.

Although Empress Cao was still confused, she even felt that the outcome of the revenge incident would be a blow to Xi'er.

But someone still informed Cao Xiang and emphasized that they would be printed overnight and sold early tomorrow morning.

Xi'er has been doing well since she recovered from her illness, which may have given her some arrogance.

Although as an emperor, this is not a big flaw, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty cannot make decisions with just one word. If you develop such a temperament, you will inevitably have constant disputes with the princes in the future.

Forget it! If Cuju comes to retaliate, it will be a setback for Xi'er, which is not a bad thing.

Although it was late at night and the queen sent the three dolls to sleep, she still had doubts about Xi'er's persistence.

She only thinks about her child growing up smoothly, and also thinks about how Xi'er will face the court in the future. This is all caused by Xi'er's stubbornness towards Cuju's revenge.

She still has no hope of retribution.

The Empress rarely arranges matters later in the afternoon. When Cao Xiang hurried back to the Cao Mansion and informed the Empress of her instructions, Cao Cong looked at those vernacular articles... Is this going to cause such a fuss?

After all, he is a child, and he was angry because he put aside the return report, so he wrote this kind of article randomly for publication.

Forget it, a child, no matter how smart he is, Prince E is still a child. He can play whatever he wants, just arrange for people to play with him.

Cao Cong never mentioned the retribution to other families at all. He knew that even if he mentioned it, no one would agree, and it would ruin the reputation of Neiyuan and Prince E.

From Panxia's carving workshop to raising the craftsmen, the Cao family is in charge. It can be considered as a reward for handling Cao Fu's affairs for Prince E.

In any case, since the message came from the inner garden, Cao Cong still actively cooperated.

He summoned all his servants and assigned the areas they would be responsible for selling tomorrow morning. As for the engraving workshop, all they needed to do was prepare the materials and let them be printed.

They have been working in vain for so long, even if they work overnight, they will not complain.

Birth and position determine thinking.

The writings that Empress Cao, including Cao Cong, were not optimistic about, aroused repercussions in the carving workshop. They liked to read such writings the most, especially those who paid attention to Cuju play, and hoped to see such content.

When the master's order arrived, the carving workshop started running quickly.

It's just that the owner didn't want to print a large quantity...

Before he fell asleep, Liu Yi received news that the printing and sales of Cuju newspapers had been arranged.

Liu Yi knew that this was the prince's business. Regardless of whether it was late at night or not, Junsu sent someone to inform Ciming Palace.

It was strange that Queen Cao, who had never been sleepy, immediately fell asleep peacefully after hearing that everything was arranged.

When Zhao Xi went to school early in the morning and saw the crown prince holding a Cuju newspaper to promote it in Zishantang, he knew that the matter was done.

This matter was not only accomplished, but also became popular. It was so popular that it surprised Cao Cong, exhausted the servants of the Cao family, and made the craftsmen in the carving workshop miserable.

When all the servants sent out sold out the Cuju papers in less than an hour and returned home, Cao Cong knew that he had made a mistake again and had once again misjudged Prince E's initiative.

Fortunately, there was no need to explain it to the palace this time. He quickly arranged for the engraving workshop to increase printing, and at the same time coordinated with the other five companies, and sent his servants to temporarily take over the sale of Cuju newspapers.

He really didn't expect it to be so popular!

When Cao Cong left the house, he also wanted to see if the Cuju newspaper was as reported by the next person, or if it was thrown away casually.

But as soon as he turned a corner, he saw a bustling crowd gathered at the corner of the street, shouting: Leave a share, and I will add two cents... When did this idle man in the market become so generous?

Cao Cong went back home directly.

Not long after, first people from the five families came, and before anyone could discuss the matter, people from the two royal families came, and finally people from the Cuju guild also came.

This is not a Cuju market. It has already been established and cannot be interfered with. This is just a reward. When the hot scene occurs, everyone knows that this is another profitable business.

"Lieutenant, what do you think? Our guild has the most detailed information, so it is reasonable to interfere in this matter."

"Taiwei, the Prince of Runan is the originator of the Cuju game. The reward of Cuju should be given to the Prince of Runan."

"Lieutenant, my Beihai Palace..."

"Lieutenant..."

Alas! Do you really think that I can decide this matter? For example, how can an old man like me propose something new? You think too highly of me, Cao Cong.

Cao Cong really admired that six or seven-year-old child. He originally thought it was just for fun, but he just played around with it and made the Cao family very popular.
