Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 32 Li Tai's Ambition

The children who sell newspapers are all from poor families, and they are all newspaper boys recruited by Li Chengqian.

They are all taught by the newspaper, as long as each of them sells two newspapers, they can get a penny.

With these remunerations, they can subsidize their families and their lives can be improved. More importantly, they can learn to write.

In order to make it easier for ordinary people to understand the contents of the newspaper, Li Chengqian also specially set up newspaper readers in each workshop to interpret newspapers for the broad masses of toiling people.

After all, there are only a few people who can read and write in this era, most of the books are in the hands of aristocratic families, and not many children from poor families can read.

What's more, these working people who live at the bottom and have a large number of people basically have no chance to get in touch with knowledge in their entire lives.

If you don't read the newspapers for them, how can you guide the public opinion of these people? If you can't guide the direction of the public opinion of the general public, how can you suppress, weaken or even eliminate the influence of the aristocratic family.

In this case, the original intention of running a newspaper will lose its meaning.

Once His Majesty Li Er finds that the newspaper has not met his expectations, how can he support Li Chengqian to continue running the newspaper.

The purpose of setting up this newspaper interpreter is to convey the important speeches of the leader and the policies of the imperial court to these working people, so that these working people can learn and implement the spirit of the supreme leader.

In the advertising space of the first issue, Li Chengqian published some product advertisements of shops that had been negotiated for free on it, so that the owners of these shops could taste the sweetness first.

Let these merchants be the first to eat crabs for free.

After the effect came out, Li Chengqian was not afraid that they would not obediently come to the newspaper to publish the advertisement, and it would not be too late to ask these merchants to pay for the advertisement.

In addition to these, there are two notices on the newspaper, one is an advertisement for rent, and the other is a call for papers.

As soon as the newspaper came out, it swept across the entire city of Chang'an, and intellectuals went to the newspaper office to contribute articles. How could they miss this kind of thing that could increase their reputation.

These merchants who wait for free advertisements, as the newspapers are sold, many people patronize their businesses because of the advertisements in the newspapers.

This made the business of these merchants much better than before, so these merchants paid for the publication of the next issue of the newspaper one after another.

Other merchants also saw business opportunities, and they went to the newspaper office to discuss publishing advertisements. Suddenly, the newspaper office was overcrowded.

The effect brought by the newspaper exceeded Li Chengqian's expectation, and even made Li Er satisfied from ear to ear.

Comrade Lao Li was proud of the spring breeze, and he issued three imperial edicts to commend Li Chengqian in one day, and even everyone including the officials of the East Palace were rewarded by Comrade Lao Li.

The East Palace was silent in the midst of joy. In the past, the East Palace was always suppressed by the King of Wei, but now the servants and maids of the East Palace are finally proud.

"Everyone! The smooth publishing of this newspaper is all thanks to your hard work. For the future of the newspaper, I hope that everyone will continue to work hard. From the day after tomorrow, Datang Daily will expand to several counties near Chang'an, and in the future will expand to Go to several states, and even expand to all parts of the country, and implement it in every household." Li Chengqian issued his first statement in the newspaper office.

There was thunderous applause below, and everyone held back their enthusiasm. The better the newspaper office does, the more rewards they can get.

"Prince, please rest assured! The old minister will manage the newspaper well and let the newspaper flourish!" Yu Zhining stood up and expressed his opinion first, Zhang Xuansu and Kong Yingda also stood up and expressed their attitude.

In addition to the salaries issued by the imperial court, these people can also earn extra money in the newspaper office, and they can also become famous. There is no reason for them not to be active!

Everyone saw that the three deputy editor-in-chiefs of the newspaper had expressed their opinions, and they also expressed their willingness to support the development of the newspaper.

"Okay! Then everyone, seize the time and screen out the articles and current reviews to be published the day after tomorrow. From the day after tomorrow, the newspaper will be published every three days instead of once a day." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Everyone was united, their fighting spirit was passionate, and there seemed to be endless energy in their bodies.

Everyone went to work, and Li Chengqian also left the newspaper office and went to Da Nei to report the results of his labor to His Majesty Li Er.

As the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Li Chengqian is obviously unqualified. Except for showing his face from time to time, he is basically a shopkeeper who throws his hands away.

Zhang Xuansu, Yu Zhining, and Kong Yingda were always in charge of the work of the newspaper office. As a result, the three of them had no time to go to the East Palace to keep an eye on the prince, let alone find fault with the prince.

In short, since he opened the newspaper, Li Chengqian has lived a very free and easy life.

Some are happy and some are sad!
When Comrade Li Chengqian was happy because of the benefits brought by the newspaper, Comrade Li Tai was not happy at all.

Since the sudden emergence of the newspaper, he found that Li Chengqian's position as the crown prince has become more and more stable, which he cannot accept.

After planning for so long, he thought that he would be able to overthrow Li Chengqian and then sit on the throne, but who would have thought that accidents would happen one after another to his right-hand man.

When his own strength was greatly reduced, Li Chengqian relied on these newspapers, and his strength became stronger than before.

Under the ebb and flow, what will he use in the future to compete with Li Chengqian for the crown prince, and what will he use to compete for the throne of the emperor.

How could he, Li Tai, be willing to leave the crown prince position so easily in front of him?

He is not reconciled, very reconciled!
But not reconciled, so what?What would he use now to compete with Li Chengqian.

Li Tai is not the only one who has troubles. Since the publication of the newspaper, the aristocratic family has panicked. If Li and Tang's royal family are allowed to go on like this.

The interests belonging to their aristocratic families will be gone, and the poor families and the poor people who they look down on will not be equal to them.

This is the most intolerable thing for them, and they must find a way to solve this serious problem.

The best way is to elect a prince who is inclined to aristocratic family among the many princes, and he will inherit the great rule in the future.

In this way, the interests and transcendent status of the gentry can be maintained.

The current prince has seriously threatened these gentry families. If Li Chengqian inherits the Datong in the future, it will not be a mess.

These gentry who smelled the crisis from the newspapers began to lean towards Wei Wang Li Tai, and contacted Wei Wang Li Tai secretly.

I hope Li Tai can win a big victory on the road to succession!
This made Wei Wang Li Tai swell up!With the secret support of these aristocratic families who share the same hatred with him.

He rekindled his hope of seizing the throne, and he seemed to see the throne of the empire beckoning to him.
