After Changsun Wuji came back in the evening, after dinner, Changsun rushed forward and said, "Father, Chong'er has something to discuss with you, let's go to the study together!"

Changsun Wuji glanced at Changsun Chong and felt that there should be something important, otherwise he would not have called him.

When he arrived at the study, Changsun Chong personally made a cup of tea for his father, then took out the newspaper he had made for the afternoon of his arms and said, "Father, read it!"

Changsun Wuji took a few sips of tea first, took it and took a look. The big word "Da Tang Daily" on it, what is this?

After looking carefully, Changsun Wuji smiled and asked, "Is this a book that guides the people's speech? It's just a big piece of paper, not a book!"

No one was stupid, Changsun Chong nodded: "This is a newspaper. You can choose some representative things that happened yesterday and write them on it. If there are people who bully men and women, write them on it; if you advertise, you can also hand in the advertising fee; the most important thing is that if the court wants to guide the people, you can also publish articles on it. Of course, newspapers are in the hands of the court, but they cannot manage newspapers, and they only have the right to supervise."

After hearing this, Changsun Wuji nodded repeatedly and said, "Well, this is very good. Can printing such a large piece of paper be technically solved?"

"This is absolutely fine." Changsun Wuji replied, "But how did you think of making these things?"

Changsun Chong said Li Er today and sought Changsun Wuji's advice.

Changsun Wuji was surprised, his son's mind was quick, and he said, "I'm so curious, how did you think of these!"

"I have more ideas, this is the daily newspaper; we can also produce a Tang Dynasty monthly magazine based on the newspaper sent from all over the country to Chang'an. In the first few pages, we can write current affairs news; in the middle, we can write some court laws and some legal interpretations; and in addition, we can also include poems, songs and essays by literati, or some missing articles; and then, we can also find some interesting stories and gossips from Chang'an, with some advertisements mixed in between. It is not one, but one book. In this way, it covers a lot of content." Changsun Chong explained, trying to be as detailed as possible, hoping that Changsun Wuji could fully understand.

"You mean anyone can contribute?" Changsun Wuji asked.

"Of course, but whether it can be published or not needs to be reviewed! So there is no need to worry about any content that does not comply with the imperial edicts. And the royalties can also be paid according to the length and content. In this way, some excellent poor children or officials can get income, wouldn't it be wonderful!"

"It's so good. How much does this newspaper cost? How much does this monthly magazine cost?" Changsun Wuji asked.

Changsun Chong smiled and said, "The price is not expensive. Such a large newspaper costs two cents per piece. More than twenty small papers per month. Just thirty cents are like this! As long as it costs enough!"

"Then you won't make money? Then why do you pay for the manuscript fee?" Changsun Wuji asked.

"Haha, these are enough expenses. As for making money, let's start with advertising. If anyone wants to advertise on it, he will pay and collect money according to the number of times, size and other specific circumstances." Changsun Chong said proudly. If he really wants to do it, he will be ruthless in collecting advertising fees.

"Can you really receive a lot of advertising fees?" Changsun Wuji couldn't believe it.

"Don't worry, if no one advertises, our property will be listed on it, and you will know the benefits of advertising."

"You just said that anyone can contribute to it? Will it cause trouble?" Changsun Wuji was itchy. He also hoped that many people would see the poems he wrote, so he asked with shamelessness.

"Dad, of course, you can write a pen name! You don't need a real name, only people from our editorial department know about it." Changsun Chong explained.

"Okay, okay!" Changsun Wuji left the newspaper, "Let's go find Your Majesty tomorrow!"

Changsun Chong quickly stopped him: "Wait, let's send it in a few days. Chong'er doesn't want His Majesty to know that I can think of a solution so quickly."

When Changsun Wuji heard this, he felt impatient and suddenly realized, "Yes, it's too easy to come, so I can't remember yours."

In recent days, the most popular business is Meilin and Liumuxiang. Watermelon shops are not enough to sell without a car every day. Some wealthy families go directly to the farm to pull up and buy one car at a time. A pound of watermelon costs twenty cents, and a watermelon costs three to four hundred cents. A car of watermelon costs thirty ten taels per car. A car of watermelon costs thirty ten taels per car. A few hundred acres of watermelon will produce dozens of cargoes every day.

The seeds brought by Changsun Chong are big varieties, premature and delicious. After working hard for half a month, although the watermelons in the fields have been sold halfway, they are now blooming. Even when the watermelon season is peak, they can still be sold for a lot of money. These days, watermelons are only something that rich people can afford, and they are expensive!

Liu Muxiang went to see the situation of the store, but was grabbed by Meilin and stuffed 10,000 taels of silver notes, saying, "This is a half-month dividend! Take it quickly. If you have anything you want to buy, don't be reluctant to spend money. Now we have made money, and we are not short of money."

Liu Muxiang refused and refused and said, "Sister-in-law, I don't need to spend money now. I'll leave this money here first. I'll give it to me when I'm at the end of the month."

Seeing Liu Muxiang refuse, Meilin didn't insist. In the past few days, she has been so happy that she has a lot of money in her hands. After summer, she can change her home to a bigger house.

"Muxiang, take good care of your health. Sister-in-law will send you the supplements in two days. When the princess comes in three months, you will have a child. Take advantage of the moment to take good care of your health." Meilin whispered, "You have to continue to endure it, don't lose all your efforts!"

"Sister-in-law, I know you're relieved!" Liu Muxiang nodded and said she knew, "Sister-in-law, we have money in our hands, so why don't we buy more land. Although the vegetable greenhouse will not be as prosperous as last year's last year, it shouldn't be too bad!"

"Well, I think so too. Let the eldest young master help find more seeds. This year we plant less vegetables, and we plant more cucumbers and tomatoes. It would be even better if there are delicious fruits that can be grown in the greenhouse." Meilin has been doing business for a long time and has become smarter.

"Okay, I'll ask when I go back." Liu Muxiang nodded, "By the way, my husband recently made a newspaper and advertised the family's industry, so I'll report the watermelon at home. If the effect is good, we will continue to do it in the future."

"What's the advertisement?" Merlin asked curiously.

"It is to advertise it widely and print the pictures and texts of our watermelons on it, so that more people can know it, so that our watermelons will be sold even better."

"But our watermelons have always been in short supply! There is no need to advertise!" Merlin was puzzled.

"You don't know this. We want to create a famous brand so that when others hear watermelon, they will think of our watermelon!" Liu Muxiang said all of this from Changsun Chong.

"Oh, I understand. Whenever people mention watermelon, they say that Fuji's watermelon is good. Is that true?" Meilin understood.

"That's it! Our watermelon is good. Even if it sells more expensive than others in the future, some people will buy it."

"Great, we do this ad!"

Let’s talk about Changsun Wuji taking Changsun to meet Li Er. Li Er was very interested in this newspaper and strongly asked Changsun Chong to operate quickly. It was originally a Datang Daily, but at the beginning, it changed from one copy every day to one copy every three days, so I’ll give it a try.

Li Er was very excited. He heard that the author who submitted the article could use the pen name "Ji Shi and An Min". He was itchy and prepared to submit the article.

"Chong'er, do you think I can contribute to it?" Li Er asked with a little embarrassed look.

"Of course it's OK. If you don't want people to know your true identity, then you can take a pseudonym and express your opinion; if you want people to know your true identity, then use your real name. Just like if we carry out the work of other countries, as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, we must sign your name. If you want to take a break from articles, criticize current problems, or poetry, it's best to use a pseudonym so that you can speak freely with others. Just like me, if I contribute, I will use Fengfu Jushi!"

"Haha, your pen name is a bit shabby!" Li Er smiled.

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate my pen name. In Baiweilou, many people left messages to appreciate the poems of Fengyu Layman. It is not famous, but it is definitely not an unknown person." Changsun Chong said proudly.

"Okay, then let's see what manuscripts you submit in the newspaper!" Li Er said, "But what department does this Tang Daily belong to?"

After all the calculations, there is no suitable department!

Changsun Chong thought for a while: "Your Majesty, why not just hang it under the Imperial College, which is just right for you to speak freely, and a hundred schools of thought contend to inspire students' patriotic ideas."

"Okay, who do you choose, the editor-in-chief?" Li Er asked. If there were no respected people, he would probably not be able to pick them up.

"I originally planned to invite Master as the editor-in-chief, but Master is still responsible for the prince's courses, so I plan to invite Senior Brother Xiao Yu and Kong Yingda as the editor-in-chief, and I am the deputy editor-in-chief, and then recruit a few editors and reporters." Changsun Chong made this arrangement for the time being.

"Okay, one is the priest of the Imperial College, and the other is the prime minister of the court. It's enough. You can make up the following people by yourself, but you'd better complete various contents within one day, and then take them to me and review them, and you can print them on the third day! Is there enough time?" Li Er asked.

Changsun Chong calculated: "It's too late, of course it's too late! As for this funding..."

"Didn't you say you charge for advertising?"

"But no one advertised in the first issue..."

"Don't you have many industries at home. I promised you that you will give you three consecutive free advertisements. Is this OK?" Li Er gave in.
