I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 240: The Beauties Start a New Life

Jia Cong stood up, stretched, and then continued to exercise.

Now that he no longer needs to study the Four Books and Five Classics or eight-legged essay, he has a lot more free time.

As for martial arts, you have to practice it every day.

After exercising, Jia Cong took a bath and then went into the bedroom.

As a result, none of the three maids, Qingwen, Hongxiu and Xiangling, were too embarrassed to go in and serve the Third Master.

Therefore, these three girls were all hesitant to move forward.

In the end, Qingwen and Hongxiu exchanged glances.

Then the two of them joined forces and decisively pushed Xiangling into the house.

Xiangling was startled and couldn't help but scream in fear.

But since she had already entered the house, it was not convenient for her to go out, so she had to shyly go forward to serve Jia Cong.

Jia Cong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Next, the clouds disappeared and the rain stopped, the sky became bright, the setting sun and the lone wild goose flew together, and the autumn water and the sky were the same color. There is no need to remember much.

Early the next morning, Jia Cong sent a servant to the Lin Mansion to deliver a letter to Lin Daiyu.

In the Lin Mansion, Lin Daiyu was reading a book when she suddenly received a letter from Jia Cong.

It turned out that she was invited to visit the Grand View Garden.

After reading the letter, Lin Daiyu's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

What on earth does Brother Cong want to talk to me about?

Is it so urgent?

For a moment, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

She quickly changed her clothes, called a carriage from the mansion, and went straight to the Grand View Garden.

Now in the Lin Mansion, Lin Ruhai went to the Ministry of Revenue to report for duty early in the morning.

Naturally, Lin Ruhai's three concubines in the Lin Mansion did not dare to control her.

This also made it convenient for Lin Daiyu.

Soon, Lin Daiyu arrived at the Grand View Garden.

Not long after, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun, Xue Baochai, Xue Baoqin, Xing Xiuyun and other girls arrived one after another.

Huh?
It turns out that Brother Cong San didn’t just call me here?
He actually called all the sisters over.

In this case, there is nothing unexpected.

Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It has to be said that since meeting and getting to know Jia Cong, Lin Daiyu's temperament has changed a lot unconsciously.

If it had been at the beginning, she would probably have blamed Jia Cong a long time ago.

Not long after, Jia Cong arrived at the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

When the sisters saw Jia Cong, they couldn't help but laugh and said, "The champion is here!"

"Tell me what you want us to do?"

Jia Cong smiled and said, "I invited all the sisters here because I really have something I want to trouble you with."

"I am planning to establish the Daxia Monthly Newspaper and I am going to ask all the sisters to help me write and edit the articles."

"Who knows, by then, all the sisters will be able to leave their names in history."

After hearing this, Tanchun couldn't help asking, "Third brother, what is this Daxia Monthly Report? Is it a collection of essays?"

Jia Cong explained: "It's not a single book, but an edition is published every month, and there are fixed sections in the monthly report."

"In the later stage, we will definitely solicit manuscripts from all over the country. What the sisters have to do then is to select high-quality manuscripts from the many submissions and publish them in the Daxia Daily after proofreading."

"In the early stage, I will trouble the sisters to write some poems and articles for publication." Next, Jia Cong gave a detailed introduction to the situation of Daxia Monthly.

After hearing this, the sisters all looked thoughtful.

After a while, Lin Daiyu could not help but say, "Third Brother Cong is really confused. Not to mention that our work is just a joke and not a poem. Even if it is a poem, our writing should not be spread outside."

Tanchun smiled and said, "Sister Lin, what are you afraid of? In ancient times, writings in the boudoir should not be spread out, and now no one knows about it."

"Besides, even if our poems are published in the newspaper, they won't use our real names, but just pseudonyms. How would outsiders know that we wrote them?"

"Since ancient times, women can only take care of their husbands and children. Now that Third Brother Cong has given us a platform to show our talents, are you sisters really going to back down?"

"As long as Third Brother Cong dares to use me, I will never back down."

Lin Daiyu is naturally smart and beautiful, and Xue Baochai has her own ambitions and aspirations.

Therefore, they were naturally excited and wanted to realize their ambitions.

It’s just that the teachings they received since childhood are still binding them.

After hesitating for a while, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai both said, "It would be fine if we were asked to help Third Brother Cong proofread his articles, but it would be inappropriate if we were asked to publish our poems on the poetry and article page."

Xue Baoqin, Xing Xiuyan and other women also expressed the same view.

Jia Cong did not force them. This was a new thing, and it would naturally take some time for them to accept it.

Thinking of this, Jia Cong couldn't help but say: "That's fine, let me first tell you my idea, each of you can be responsible for a section."

"By the way, the newspaper has just been prepared and everything is waiting to be done. Sister Qin will be in charge of the anecdotes section."

"Sister Qin has been to many places, so she has naturally heard many strange stories."

"So it would be better if Sister Qin could write some articles on this subject."

"As for the poetry section, I'll just use a few of my poems to fill the space. Oh, and you can also put my third sister's poems there."

"As for the rest, the sisters must also take responsibility."

This is also why Jia Cong values ​​Xue Baoqin.

Xue Baoqin has followed her father to many places and is knowledgeable and experienced, on par with Jia Cong.

Although Jia Cong has experienced information bombardment from later generations, he is no match for Xue Baoqin when it comes to his understanding of this world.

Xue Baoqin and the other girls accepted it gladly.

Lin Daiyu asked again, "Brother Cong, other pages are fine, but what about the novels in the novel section?"

"I guess Brother Cong San wants to use the novel section to attract some people, but I don't know who should write the novel?"

Hearing Lin Daiyu's words, Jia Cong couldn't help but secretly praise Lin Daiyu for being so smart.

He couldn't help but say, "As for the novel, let me write it for now."

"This novel has about forty chapters. If one chapter is published per month, it can last for forty months."

"After forty months, we will no longer be short of manuscripts. Therefore, I will be in charge of the novel section."

Jia Cong had already thought about what to publish in the novel section.

There are countless novels written in later generations.

However, those suitable for publication in this era must be carefully selected.

In the end, Jia Cong decided to choose The Legend of the Condor Heroes by Mr. Jin Yong.

In this era, chapter novels have quietly emerged.

And chivalrous novels have become popular among the people.

Jia Cong believed that once The Legend of the Condor Heroes was released, it would definitely be able to beat all the chivalrous novels.

The charm of Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novels is beyond doubt. (End of this chapter)
