After Du Qi heard Qian Zailai's words, he thought for a while and said, "Since this Zailai Bookstore is going to change its name, we'll change it to Xinhua Wenxuan. Henceforth, no matter where the Zailai Bookstore opens its branches in the Tang dynasty, it will be named Xinhua Wenxuan. "
After a pause, Du Qi continued, "The books in our bookstore must be labeled as Xinhua Wenxuan's products. In short, we must let the people of the Tang dynasty form a perception that the products of Xinhua Wenxuan must be the best. "
"Young Master is wise!"
Qian Zailai bowed.
However, after pondering for a while, Qian Zailai suddenly asked, "Young Master, what is the meaning of the words Xinhua Wenxuan? Since it's the name of a bookstore, there must be a certain meaning. "
Du Qi shook his head and said, "There's no meaning. The name Xinhua Wenxuan is catchy and sounds good."
He naturally wouldn't say that he was too lazy to come up with a name and directly copied the name of a bookstore from the future. In any case, it was just a name. There was nothing to care about.
Qian Zailai frowned when he heard it.
He felt that it was inappropriate.
However, since it was Du Qi's name, especially since Du Qi was a literary tycoon, there must be a purpose. It was just that he didn't say it out. In the end, Qian Zailai swallowed the words he wanted to ask and said, "Please rest assured, Young Master. I will complete the arrangements as soon as possible."
Du Qi said, "After the establishment of Xinhua Wenxuan, you will be the general manager of Xinhua Wenxuan. You will be responsible for the management of Xinhua Wenxuan throughout the Tang dynasty. All levels of Xinhua Wenxuan bookstores will have their own managers, but you will be fully responsible for it. "
Qian Zailai was very excited and said, "Please rest assured, Young Master. I will arrange everything. After our Xinhua Wenxuan bookstores opened in various places, I have already anticipated that corruption may breed. I will put an end to it. "
Du Qi thought for a while and said, "The management of Xinhua Wenxuan bookstores in various places will not be interfered with by the higher-ups. They will be given enough autonomy. Of course, the prices of the books sold in various bookstores will be set by Xinhua Wenxuan's main store. "
"In addition to this, set a monthly accounting standard for each branch of Xinhua Wen Xuan. As long as the bookstores meet the standards, the local Xinhua Wen Xuan shopkeeper will arrange the reward for the excess money. "
"In short, give the local Xinhua Wen Xuan shopkeeper the right to manage."
After a pause, Du Qi continued, "However, the local shopkeepers must obey the management of Xinhua Wen Xuan's main store. Not only did he have to delegate power, but he also had to be able to take it back at the critical moment. This is my request for the local Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore. "
"I understand!"
Qian Zailai nodded, looking like he already understood. He was very surprised because this Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore, due to its uniqueness, would definitely be able to make a lot of money.
Under such circumstances, Du Qi was still willing to give full authorization to the local shopkeeper, which showed his ambition. In particular, Du Qi's arrangement was equivalent to giving the profits to the local shopkeeper.
After that, Du Qi added some details and finished talking about the various matters of Xinhua Wenxuan. Then, he stopped talking and said, "I've already said what I need to say about Xinhua Wenxuan's situation. As for the follow-up arrangements, you can do as you see fit. In short, what I need to see is the result, the final result. "
"Yes, I understand."
Qian Zailai was now extremely excited.
He felt that following Du Qi was the wisest decision, or it could be said that it was his greatest fortune. Not only because Du Qi was a strategist and had extremely high wisdom, but also because Du Qi gave him a stage to display his talent, allowing him to operate to his heart's content.
Du Qi got up and left.
After he left the Zailai Bookstore, he returned to the Du Family. After returning to the Du Family, Du Qi rested for a while, then wrote some of the latest content of the manuscript. When it was close to noon, after he had lunch, he did not delay any longer and took the latest chapter into the palace.
This was the nineteenth chapter.
The title of the nineteenth chapter of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was Xiapi City, Cao Cao fought the White Gate Tower and lost Lu Bu's life. This was Lu Bu's ending battle, a tiger general of a generation was finally killed on the battlefield.
Li Yuan personally came to the Du Family to read the eighteenth chapter, and now was the latest chapter.
Du Qi's entry into the palace was a daily routine.
Not long after he entered the palace, he entered the Sweet Dew Hall and saw the Emperor of the Tang dynasty, Li Yuan. Du Qi's expression was solemn, he clasped his hands and said respectfully, "This little one Du Qi pays respect to Your Majesty."
Li Yuan said, "No need to be so courteous."
At this moment, seeing Du Qi, Li Yuan's face was already full of expectation. He said, "Quickly, quickly, hand over the latest chapter's content. I've been waiting for a long time this afternoon. If you still didn't send it over, I was going to personally go to the Du Family. "
Hearing this, Du Qi immediately took out the nineteenth chapter's content from his sleeve and held it in both hands. The Minister of Imperial Household, Xiao Li, had been serving at Li Yuan's side all along. He walked over, picked up the book, and placed it in front of Li Yuan.
Li Yuan impatiently flipped open the content and began to read. After a good long while, Li Yuan finished reading the nineteenth chapter's content. His face had a rueful expression. He said, "The grand Lu Bu, a valiant general of a generation, killed Dong Zhuo, moved unhindered in Chang 'an, and in the end, actually fell to such an end. In the end, it was still Lu Bu himself who was headstrong and self-opinionated, capricious and capricious. Erlang Du, Lu Bu, this character, is brave but not astute. You wrote it very well. "
Du Qi said, "Your Majesty praises me too much. Although this little one wrote an article, in reality, I also referred to the compilation of many unofficial histories, and also many people's understanding of Lu Bu. Only then did I have today's article."
Li Yuan said, "No matter what, this is your contribution."
Du Qi smiled lightly.
To him, Lu Bu was actually not the most brilliant person. Because later on, there were even more brilliant people like Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang, and others who appeared one after another. That was the most brilliant part of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Li Yuan's eyes were filled with anticipation. He said, "After returning, you must also work hard and write well. Do not slack off. Do you understand?"
"Yes!"
Du Qi immediately responded.
Seeing that Du Qi did not take the initiative to say that he was leaving, Li Yuan's eyes narrowed. He said, "Du Qi, you actually did not say that you were leaving on your own initiative. You stayed behind, is there still something important to report? "
Du Qi saluted and said, "Your Majesty is wise. This little one does indeed have something to report."
Li Yuan said, "There is no harm in saying it!"
Du Qi said seriously, "Your Majesty, this little one has now opened a bookstore. Not only that, this little one is preparing to open bookstores all over the country to sell the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and other books."
"In addition, this little one also wants to establish a court bulletin."
"This little one planned the contents of the court bulletin. On one hand, it is to publish the imperial court's major policies and policies, to publish the preferential treatment given to the people by the imperial court, as well as some miscellaneous matters. On the other hand, it is to use a portion of the court bulletin's pages to publish novels, short stories, and so on to increase the fun. "
Du Qi said seriously, "This little one is preparing to establish a court bulletin. I earnestly request for Your Majesty's approval."
After Li Yuan heard this, his eyes narrowed. He said, "The reason why you want my approval is because the court bulletin involves the imperial court's major policies and some of the latest news of the imperial court."
"Some of this news is even confidential, or it will be sent back later. It is simply useless to rely on you to collect it. Or rather, by the time you can get it, a lot of the news will already be outdated. "
"Therefore, you want my approval to give you the latest news, to ensure that your court bulletin will have the latest news. Little Du, is that what you are thinking?"
Li Yuan stroked his beard, feeling very pleased.
Du Qi smiled embarrassedly and said, "Your Majesty is wise. Whatever this little one is thinking about, I can't hide it from Your Majesty. This little one's court bulletin, without the imperial court's support, we can only rely on ourselves. Although we can get some information, in reality, this information is neither light nor heavy, neither painful nor itchy, and has no effect at all. Therefore, we need the imperial court's help. "
Li Yuan said in a deep voice, "If you want to establish a court bulletin, you can do it on the basis of having a bookstore. The information you need, I can also give it to you, and I guarantee that the latest news will be sent to you every day. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Du Qi immediately opened his mouth to thank him.
For Du Qi, this was an opportunity. If Li Yuan agreed, then Du Qi could even set up a separate newspaper business to specialize in running the court bulletin.
