The release of the Newspaper is actually just starting to explore.

Fortunately, the Chen family is rich and has many merchants who have business dealing with the Chen family. Most of these merchants have their own sales channels. If you ask them to sell on behalf of others, you can sink the sales tentacles to the grassroots bookstores and grocery stores.

Not only that, the Chen family also hired a group of peddlers to sell them along the street.

In fact, if this new thing was done by someone else, there would be basically no hope.

After all, behind the Newspaper are countless people from all states, who need food, drink and supplies. Only the great clans and tycoons can provide so much manpower and material resources.

But even with this, you still have to have a papermaking workshop and printing workshop. In this era, only the Chen family could provide low-cost paper and hired a large number of craftsmen to print movable type.

Newspapers must be printed in movable type, because this thing focuses on timeliness. If it is carved, the daylily will be cold when you carve it out.

Fortunately, under the leadership of the Chen family, movable type printing has gone from rough to gradually improved. Although it is not enough to make the newspaper's handwriting clear, it can be done by barely reading it.

Of course, what is really powerful about the Chen family is the sales network. After all, they have a lot of business dealings with countless merchants. After controlling these merchants, they will control the entire market to some extent.

If someone else was unable to quickly expand the business, it means that the sales of newspapers were initially extremely sluggish, and ordinary people could not bear this continuous loss.

As for the current sales, the Chen family is also losing money, but... Chen Zhengtai has made up his mind, even if he loses money, he must do it with his teeth.

What Chen Aizhi is worried about now is that the 6,000 copies printed in the second phase can be sold smoothly. If it is unsold, it will be awful.

Fortunately, Chang'an, with Erpigou, has a population of more than one million.

Moreover, most of the million people are the essence of the world. Here are many ministers who have entered the court, military officers, imperial guards promoted by the children of meritorious ministers, countless merchants, scholars who have traveled here, a large number of monks supported by royal families, Erpigou University Hall, and many craftsmen who have begun to gradually understand the text and master reading skills.

In the Tang Dynasty, the literacy rate was so low that it was scary, but at Chang'an, under the feet of the emperor, the literacy rate was the highest among this huge imperial city, and in recent years... the literacy rate has been rising steadily.

Therefore, the literate population surveyed by the Chen family was roughly around 300,000, which is an astonishing number.

After the newspaper was distributed, Chen Aizhi was still staying in the newspaper office. On the one hand, she was waiting for sales, and on the other hand, she was preparing for the next issue of the newspaper.

…………

Li Shimin got up early.

After his article was posted, he suddenly felt a wonderful feeling. He began to think about his article. Will it be badly written, and it will make people laugh at that time.

Of course, the most important thing is... Li Shimin is still thinking about it. If this article is published, I don’t know what effect it will be.

Thinking of this, he didn't sleep well all night and always felt that some words were used in the article were wrong.

Li Shimin is a person with a deep sense of responsibility. He is different from other emperors. Other emperors have their own unique talents and different personalities. Li Shimin cherishes his reputation and hopes to do everything well. He hopes that he can show his most glorious side to the subjects in the world.

Therefore, at the time of Mao, Zhang Qian heard Li Shimin's movements.

Zhang Qian tiptoed into the bedroom and whispered: "Your Majesty..."

But he saw that Li Shimin had already put on his clothes and raised his shoes.

Zhang Qian was startled: "Your Majesty is this..."

Li Shimin glanced at him: "What else can it be? I have been thinking about it, but I am worried, so I will change my clothes. I want to go out for a walk."

Zhang Qian felt that Li Shimin was simply a little nervous.

Next, I heard Li Shimin ask him: "What do you think of my article?"

Zhang Qian has answered this question countless times and is familiar with it: "Your Majesty, I think Your Majesty is so literary, it's really... Wenqu descends to earth..."

Li Shimin was furious: "Shut up, you flatterer."

Zhang Qian was so scared that he shivered.

Li Shimin immediately said, "Follow me to leave the palace."

"Leave the palace..." Zhang Qian was stunned: "Your Majesty, this... must not be there, last time..."

Li Shimin said lightly: "Last time, wasn't it very good?"

Zhang Qian didn't dare to object anymore and went to make arrangements.

At dawn, a four-wheeled carriage left the palace under the escort of more than a dozen guards.

But when Li Shimin left, he didn't know where to go for a moment.

Then he called Zhang Qian: "It's dawn at this time, where is the lively place?"

"This..." Zhang Qian thought for a while: "In Ping'anfang, there is a prostitute village. I heard that it was all night long. It was dawn and the song ended and people dispersed. Many people like to join in the fun. Your Majesty, Your Majesty... You are not going to such a place."

Li Shimin looked at Zhang Qian with a suspicion: "How did you know where this prostitute is?"

Zhang Qian: “…”

Li Shimin immediately said, "Think about it, find a tea shop... see if anyone has opened early."

Zhang Qian had no choice but to say, "I obey the order."

The carriage turned around and began to become aimless.

…………

Chen Zhengtai got up quite early, and he was quite interested in the articles given by His Majesty and wanted to see what the response was.

In fact, the emperor's writings and ink are in a certain way, and the words are followed by the law. However, it is impossible for him to truly contact ordinary people over the years. In this era, the imperial power in prefectures and counties was called the county, and even Chang'an City was the only one who was above the seventh rank. The remaining old people had nothing to do with the common people.

He got up early, and then Chen Fu came excitedly: "Young Master, your son, you got a driver's note in the newspaper office. He said he wanted to invite Chen Aizhi to the Censorate... to ask..."

"What?" Chen Zhengtai was a little confused: "Why is the Censorate like this?"

"Just say, go and ask."

Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but be angry: "I told Chen Aizhi not to pay attention to them. He did not commit a crime, so he dared to move the car post. This Chen Aizhi is the brother bloodline of my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's brother. What a relationship? The Censorate directly put the car post without passing me. Is it because he bullied our Chen family without a man?"

Chen Fu kept nodding: "Yes, yes, actually... the owner of the Hall of Chen did not go, saying that he wanted to ask you and was willing to leave again. The Censorate seemed a little anxious, so he sent several censors to the newspaper office in person, saying that it was the newspaper office selling news. The matter was very important. In order to prevent the incident, the evil words were confusing the public. In the future, any news in the newspaper office would need to be monitored before they could..."

Chen Zhengtai knew in his heart that it was fake when the censor came. Behind this, I was afraid that many aristocratic families would instigate them. The Chen family cut off their news channels. They were all built with real money, but in the end... they were useless all of a sudden.

The reason why aristocratic races have a monopoly position in this era is not only the land and divisions, but also the monopoly of knowledge. The monopoly of knowledge will inevitably lead to the monopoly of information channels. After all, only those with knowledge can have a certain degree of forward-looking nature.

But the news report is better. There are sea boats going to sea in Yangzhou, so it would be fine if the news report is released. There will be some editorial comments below, suggesting that it may cause a stable supply of ginseng. If ordinary people read this, they will know what's going on.

Chen Zhengtai sneered: "That's how it's all over the newspaper office? That's great. Let Xue Rengui go and meet them. I see that Rengui is so idle all day long that he wants to fade out."

Chen Fu nodded quickly and hurried away.

Chen Zhengtai didn't take this matter seriously. He just had a few censors. When he came to Erpigou, what could he do? He really thought the Chen family was a vegetarian.

…………

Newspapers...

Several censors were invited to the main hall.

Chen Aizhi was quite polite to them, so he invited the minister to sit down and then ordered someone to pour tea. After seeing the ceremony, he saw the ceremony.

The head censor said bluntly: "We have read the last issue of the news newspaper. There are too many taboos in it. After discussing the matter, I think many places are inappropriate. I will definitely be indispensable for impeachment. But seeing that this is the Chen family's newspaper, I originally wanted to invite you to the Censorate to discuss a feasible solution, which will not hurt Chen's good intentions in publishing the newspaper, nor will it be difficult for the court to handle it. But after I asked you to go, you pushed me and blocked me. What is this? Could it be... Is it true that a commoner dared to ignore the Censorate?"

Chen Aizhi was so scared that she was sweating profusely, and hurriedly begged: "It's really that I can't get out of here..."

"Hmph." The censor who had spoken before was furious, got up, and blinked his sleeves: "What's the reason? It's simply outrageous. I, Ma Yingchu, have never seen such a domineering person, even Fang Gong or Du Gong, who is not so domineering. Today I'll be here, do you know what to do?"

Chen Aizhi was ashamed: "I don't know."

"I don't know... you don't know." Ma Yingchu was angry again. In fact, he wanted to give a warning. On the other hand, he wanted to take this opportunity to directly let the Censorate intervene in the newspaper office. Of course... the intervention in the newspaper office was something that the masters in the world liked to see. This thing... everyone has already noticed the power.

But at this moment, someone outside said, "Who is going to pretend to be the censor? Let me see, I can't beat them to death, they are the censors, and my name is written in reverse..."

As he said that, he saw a man rushing in recklessly. There was still a bit of coldness in the spring day, but the young man was only wearing a short shirt that could not keep the cold. He was full of blood and was still venting heat all over his body, and rushed in with a rush.

Ma Yingchu was stunned and just now he was still stern and scolded loudly. This was a habit brought by his long-term career as a censor.

Now, when he saw a reckless boy rushing in, he first cursed: "Who is it? Get out of here."

Next, he said: "Xiaohan, what are you doing?"

After that, he said: "Young man, don't be rude."

Then again: "Little hero, please say something."

Finally, he seemed to even tremble his throat: "Don't do this with a good nephew."

Sadly... these words were of no use, and then there was a wailing sound.

He heard the boy's voice again and said, "I've tasted great now. Do you dare to pretend to be the censor? Do you think my little grandfather Cheng Chumo is fake. Next time I see a liar like you, I will hit you once!"

Cheng Chumo...

A group of people fled out in a panic and then gritted their teeth. Isn’t that unfilial son of Cheng Yaojin’s family? I heard for a long time that he and the Chen family are not clear, not clear...

"Ah... go quickly, go quickly..."

………The release of the Newspaper is actually just a matter of exploring.
