In the back hall of the workshop.
Li Zexuan's eyes lit up when he heard Ma Zhou say that he had made a new edition of the newspaper. He said impatiently, "Brother Ma, let me take a look!"
"Please wait a moment, Lord Jue!"
Ma Zhou replied and went to get the materials. After a while, he came back in and handed Li Zexuan a stack of papers. "Lord Jue, this is the new edition of the newspaper. Please take a look."
Li Zexuan smiled and nodded as he took the papers. He opened them and looked at them carefully.
"'Detailed Explanation of Punctuation'"
This was the first section of the newspaper. It seemed that Ma Zhou had thought about it thoroughly. He wanted people to accept punctuation as soon as possible.
Next was the interactive section of the literati. Li Zexuan had said that this section could be written in classical Chinese. The content and format were not much different from last time.
"'On Taizong Shu', in ancient times, those who were not subjects were all subjects to His Majesty; those who were not under His Majesty's control were all under His Majesty's control …"
"'Explanation of Zhenguan Law', it is said: 'Man, three talents, and ten thousand things are divided. Qi contains spirit, and man is the leader … '"
… ….
Li Zexuan felt that this section was boring. He thought to himself, 'I'll leave this section for the literati of Tang Dynasty to spit at each other. In any case, this young master will not read it in the future.'
The second section was the current news. Li Zexuan was excited. He wanted to see what Ma Zhou would write this time. As soon as he saw it, he could not take his eyes off it.
"'Shocking! Murderer Is So Deranged, Exterminating an Entire Family! '"
This content was considered normal. It only talked about a massacre that had just been solved in Xinfeng County not long ago. The process was quite complicated. As Ma Zhou did not use classical Chinese this time, Li Zexuan was very interested. He carefully read the whole story.
Next article.
"《The Drunken Scholar Met the Courtesan of the Brothel and Did Such a Despicable Thing!》"
When Li Zexuan saw the title, he thought that the drunken scholar had used the alcohol to force himself on the brothel's top courtesan. But when he looked down, he immediately vomited blood. It turned out that the drunken scholar had drunk too much and had the urge to pee, so he had peed on the side of the road. Who knew that the brothel's top courtesan had seen him and scolded the scholar for being vulgar. As a result, the two had an argument, which finally alarmed the Chang 'an Martial Marquis.
"Chang 'an Wu Hou rushed to the widow Zhao Zhuangyi's house in the middle of the night, and the reason was actually like this!"
Seeing this title, you will definitely think that Wu Hou went to the widow's house to have an affair, right? Li Zexuan also thought so at first, but in the end, it was not the case. Wu Hou only went to the widow's house to put out the fire, and from the beginning to the end, it was just a piece of news about a fire.
"Shocking! A woman actually dared to do such a thing in broad daylight! "
What is it? You must have thought it was something embarrassing, right? In the end, the woman's skill was just a bit better, and she met a thief on the street. She was not robbed by the thief, but instead captured the thief.
"Shocking! Shocking! Men will be silent, women will cry! "
Alright, after reading up to this point, Li Zexuan was already immune to it. As expected, the content was just a notice that Qiqu Culture was offering a large sum of money for a literary competition. Ma Zhou was f * * king trying to stir up trouble!
… …
After seeing the current news section, Li Zexuan was really shocked, and his mouth was wide open. At this moment, he really wanted to say to Ma Zhou: "Brother 666666666, tomorrow please come to the UC Shock Department to work!"
Even if you beat him to death, he would never have thought that Ma Zhou, who had received a traditional Confucian education, would be able to use the shocking words he had said last time, and so quickly learn how to use it. This was simply too much of a prank, okay?
He wondered if Li Er would come and kill him if he knew that his future Prime Minister had been trained to such a state by him!
"How is it? How is it? Lord Jue? "
When Ma Zhou saw that Li Zexuan had finished reading the current news section, he hurriedly asked with a face full of expectation. For this new version of the current news, he had pondered over the words Li Zexuan had said that day for a long time before he understood some of the essence, and then he tried to change it into this.
Li Zexuan covered his face and said: "Okay, okay, okay! Brother Ma, your change this time is really great! This little brother really admires you! Just print it like this, the faster the better. Now we can make our own paper. You better have Master Liu arrange for the first batch of newspapers to be printed within these two days. The first batch of newspapers should be printed in a thousand copies. When the time comes, remember to recruit a group of children from poor families to help sell the newspapers! "
Li Zexuan was a little flustered at this moment. He was originally such an excellent and honest great scholar, how did he become like this? Whose fault is it? Anyway, it's not my fault! This young master didn't mean to be like this!
Ma Zhou felt that Li Zexuan's expression was a little strange, but he couldn't figure out where the problem was at the moment, so he could only agree: "Yes, Lord Jue, now the workshop has a lot of ready-made technologies. I estimate that I can rush out the first batch of newspapers tomorrow, and by the morning of the day after tomorrow, it can be sold in Chang 'an City!"
Li Zexuan nodded. He had introduced another modern product into the Tang Dynasty. In the future, when he had nothing to do at home, he could read the newspaper. In this era where entertainment and culture were extremely lacking, to be able to lie on the chair and read the newspaper was already a great enjoyment for Li Zexuan.
"Brother Ma, newspapers and dictionaries are the most important things in the future of Qiqu Culture. During this period of time, you have to work hard and pay attention to these two things. After this period of busy, you can go and find a group of assistants. As long as you think that it's suitable, no matter how much it costs, you have to hire them. This way, you won't have to work so hard in the future. "
Li Zexuan instructed.
"Hehe, thank you for your concern, Lord Jue!"
… … …
Li Zexuan couldn't be bothered to read the last section of Dahua Jianghu. Although he had high hopes for this section, because he could read novels from here in the future, but currently, there was only one novel written by him, so it wasn't very interesting to read it! After a while, when someone submitted a novel, he would pay more attention to this section.
When he thought about it, countless scholars would fight to submit to Qiqu Culture, and countless wonderful novels would appear. He just had to stay at home, sleep on the chair, and listen to Xiao Xi softly reading the novel to him. If he was happy listening to the novel, he would spend a lot of money and give the novel author a big reward, so that he could quickly "release more chapters" for him. Damn, this kind of life, just thinking about it makes me feel good, right? This is the life of a nouveau riche second generation otaku!
Li Zexuan couldn't help but drool as he thought about it. He seemed to have discovered something amazing!
