Human beings will show great interest in new things before they know whether they will cause disaster.
This genetic secret immediately aroused everyone's interest.
Therefore, as soon as Du He finished speaking, someone said that this was a good thing.
Li Er pondered and said: "Since the King of Medicine proposed this matter, it must be reasonable. Just do it. Why do you need my consent?"
Du He said with a smile: "Your Majesty, first of all, this matter is of great concern to the body. Tens of thousands of people in Chang'an City may be required to participate in the investigation. Without your Majesty's order, the war cannot begin. Secondly, studying the secret of this inheritance requires more than just a few.
It can be done by one person sitting in his study, but it requires a team, at least hundreds of people, and it takes half a month or even a month or two to complete. The most direct thing is that it requires a lot of money, at least 5,000 yuan.
"
Li Er, who was stingy, immediately felt bad when he heard that he wanted to spend money.
"You mean, let me come out with this money. Now that taxes have not been collected, the national treasury is already empty due to work-for-relief and disaster relief, as well as the war in the west. I'm afraid... these five thousand strings are not enough
It’s hard to take it out!” The dignified emperor Li Er actually cried in front of everyone.
Du He had already expected it, so he said: "My dear, Du He, is willing to contribute a small amount to the scientific cause of Datang. Therefore, I have decided that Dream Group will invest 10,000 yuan to support the cause of Medicine King."
Snapped.
Li Eryi slapped the table in front of him and said loudly: "Okay, Du He, you really didn't disappoint me... This matter is a major event that will benefit the present generation and benefit the future generations. If it can really benefit future generations, I think future generations will do the same."
Remember you."
"Then your Majesty agrees?" Du He raised his head and asked with a smile.
"Agree...agree!"
When Li Er saw Du He's smile, he felt uneasy in his heart, but after thinking about it, he didn't think there was any harm in it.
Anyway, the experiment was done by Sun Simiao, and the money was provided by Du He, so it had nothing to do with the imperial court.
Everyone was also confused.
I don't understand what Du He wants to do.
The court soon dispersed.
Dai Zhou took the initiative to walk next to Du He and said in a friendly manner: "Hey boy Du, you are too busy. What is the hereditary secret? The son of a mouse can make holes. It is destined by God. How can you find it?"
The secret... Ten thousand guan, you are really a prodigal!"
"Master Dai doesn't believe me either?" Du He asked.
"It's not that I don't believe it, it's that this matter is really unbelievable... If you don't believe it, just listen to it..."
Du He straightened his ears and listened carefully. He saw the ministers passing by talking about him in low voices.
"Isn't this Du He crazy? He spent 10,000 yuan doing such ridiculous things."
"Just watch, this matter will become another joke."
…
In less than a few days.
The whole city of Chang'an knew that Du He spent 10,000 yuan to drag the medicine king Sun Simiao to study why the mouse's son burrowed.
People said one after another that Du He was crazy.
At the same time, Du He's research began.
Until the last moment, no one knew what his real purpose was.
Sun Simiao is the nominal leader of the experiment. In fact, this guy is just a banner. It is Du He who actually operates the entire experiment.
First, Du He rented a yard in Chang'an City specifically for experiments.
Then more than 20 young and literate youths were removed from Dream Group to carry out related work.
After all the personnel were in place, Du He did not start research immediately. While Sun Simiao and others were stunned, Du He spent the whole morning tinkering with a new thing called a newspaper.
This newspaper is a large piece of paper with content printed on both sides.
It is divided into four pieces in total.
The first part is Datang News, which contains simple news, such as Li Er paid a private visit incognito again, which corrupt official was questioned and executed again, etc.
The second part is anecdotes, recording the entire Tang Dynasty, and more interesting events in Chang'an City.
The third part is about romance, reporting on various poems, parallel prose, etc., which is relatively elegant.
The fourth part is the advertising world, which is dedicated to advertising various products.
As soon as this new thing came out, Du He felt very satisfied.
Sun Simiao was stunned and said: "You boy, you kept telling His Majesty that you would spend 10,000 guan for me to study the secrets of inheritance. I'm still wondering where to use this 10,000 guan. I didn't expect to use it here."
Dude... you are really mad at me, I won’t do this experiment!"
Lao Sun thought he had been tricked by Du He and was about to leave as soon as he waved his sleeves.
Du He, dumbfounded, invited Old Sun back and explained: "Old Sun, calm down, you are right. This newspaper is also part of our experiment, but it is by no means a joke... but to promote our news in the future.
The experimental results were prepared. Think about it. We have figured out the secret of inheritance. We can't just leave it in a book. To be effective, we naturally have to advertise it widely and let people all over the world know. It's the fastest, most direct and effective.
The best way is to use newspapers..."
Lao Sun was stunned, pointing to the newspaper sample on the table, and asked in disbelief: "Can this piece of shit really be so powerful?"
"Whether it's serious or not, we will know tomorrow. As the editor-in-chief of Datang News, our latest issue of the newspaper has been arranged. Now Datang Bookstore is printing it overnight. It will be published early tomorrow morning. A new thing will be printed.
It was born..." Du He said confidently.
That night, Wang Erniu went into battle in person, leading more than a hundred craftsmen from Datang Study Studio to print tirelessly.
In one night, more than 5,000 copies were printed.
Early the next morning, when everyone saw so many newspapers, they were all dumbfounded.
In people's minds in this era, buying books can not only be used for reading, but also for collection, but this newspaper... seems to be worth collecting. It is blown away by a gust of wind, and an issue is published every three days...
…Will anyone actually buy it?
The old man came in a hurry, saw so many newspapers, and said with tears: "Master, even if our Dream Group is so strong now, we can't afford to go through such trouble!"
Others also have similar thoughts, but don't dare to speak out.
Wang Erniu asked curiously: "Master, how do we sell Datang News?"
Du He said: "Just...two cents a share. How much does it cost?"
"Rough calculation, it's about three cents per penny."
"Two cents a piece is not expensive!" Du He said, "Let's set out and set a small goal first. Before anything else happens, we will sell all 5,000 newspapers. If we can't sell them, no one will eat them today.
It’s lunch.”
Everyone:"……"
Isn’t it expensive for two cents a piece?
You must know that in Chang'an City today, an adult can barely eat enough if he only has 5 cents a day.
Everyone looked at each other and followed Du He, taking 5,000 newspapers, leaving the Dream Group and heading to Chang'an City.
What everyone is concerned about is not whether the newspaper can be sold out, but whether one copy can be sold.
