"I'm willing to listen to the details!"

Du Golden Light was very perfunctory. He didn't believe that he would change his mind after listening to the story. Under no circumstances would he sell the book board!

He made up his mind in his heart. He would not waver in the slightest!

Even if it meant death!

Bing Ying said, "Boss Du. This bookstore of yours is over a hundred years old? "

Du Jin nodded his head, "It's been more than 80 years since I passed it down from my grandfather! It's the name of the capital for the past hundred years! "

Bing Ying said, "I heard that the Book Bureau isn't a profitable business?"

Du Golden Light slightly nodded his head, "It looks like you aren't an amateur. Since you know that the Bureau isn't very profitable, why did you force yourself to buy my Bureau?"

Bing Ying said, "Forcefully buy? Boss Du misunderstood! I do not intend to force it! However, I heard that Boss Du is a very strong character. In order to make our cooperation more efficient, I had no choice but to use a disrespectful attitude! "How about this, in order to show our sincerity …"

Bing Ying suddenly stopped.

Du Golden Light listened attentively, trying to understand what she was about to say.

Sincerity?

What kind of sincerity was this?

Bing Ying didn't say anything. Instead, she took off her hat …

"Swish!"

Her black hair hung down as if the Milky Way had descended from the heavens.

"You … You are a woman! "

Du Jin was dumbstruck!

Bing Ying said: "I am the new wangfei of the Fourth Prince Nangong Xiu, the Fourth Miss of the Beitang Clan, Bei Tang Bing Ying! "Owner Du, does this count as sincerity?"

"Good!" Good! I, Du, admire you! Esteemed wangfei treats them with sincerity, but if Du insists, then he won't know what's good for him! Since esteemed wangfei said there was a brilliant plan for cooperation, I would like to hear the details. At least, there's no harm in listening to them! "

Bing Ying had first suppressed Du Golden Light with force and then self-detonated her own identity and family. Firstly, she was sincere in expressing her cooperation with him, and secondly, she had a powerful background that naturally made Du Golden Light apprehensive.

Du Golden Light was indeed a shrewd person. His attitude softened a lot when he saw how sincere Bing Ying was.

Bing Ying saw that the time was ripe and said: "Boss Du! "Since the bookstore doesn't make any money, and you need to maintain the operation of the bookstore and raise a large number of henchmen, I'm afraid the source of the money is because of the huge expenses …"

When Du Xiangyang heard this, he was so scared that his face turned pale!

Bing Ying said, "You don't have to worry. I will not pursue your source of money. Furthermore, I am not here to look for you because I represent the Prince Soo Palace, the Beitang Family and the government! On behalf of myself! A person who sincerely collaborates with Boss Du! "

Only then did Du Jinhuang relax. "Right now, I'm actually very interested to hear about esteemed wangfei …"

Bing Ying said, "You can call me Young Master Wang."

She tied up her hair and put on her hat, quickly turning into a handsome, white-faced scholar.

Du Golden Light said, "Young Master Wang, please tell us your plans for cooperation now!"

Bing Ying said: "Boss Du is indeed a businessman, you have a keen sense of business! Actually, I have an unprecedented and wonderful way to make money in the era of innovation! That is to publish newspapers! "

Dudian asked: "What is the newspaper?"

Ice said, "Newspapers are the most basic and effective medium of communication! In my world, I mean, in the other world I know of, there are many media, a highly developed information age. Internet, mobile phone, movies, television, magazines, newspapers... The media are well-developed. Of course, I can understand the doubt on your face. It's too hard for you to understand what a network and a mobile phone are. Let's just talk about the newspapers! "

Du Jin thought about it for a moment, and then said, "Although I can't understand what you're saying, Young Master Wang, I have an intuition! All these things that you have mentioned will be earth-shattering! "

Bing Ying smiled and said: "I told you you have a sharp mind for business!" Let me give you a brief account of what a newspaper is! Do you have a book in your house? "

"A book?"

"Yes!" Any book is fine! "

Du Golden Light immediately shouted, "Men! Bring out the rare book of "The Geography of the Sky" that I just printed! "

Soon, a servant brought over a brand-new book wrapped in red silk.

Du Jin's face was filled with pride as he handed the book over to Bing Yingying, "This is the most influential work of the Sunset Clouds Book Bureau this year,《 Geography of the Sky》. Young Master Wang, is this book okay?"

Bing Ying said straightforwardly: "Sure! "No problem!"

Du Jin asked curiously, "I wonder what Young Master Wang wants this book for?"

Bing Ying took the book and calmly turned the page, not even bothering to look at it.

Swish...

He tore off a page!

Du Golden Light was shocked, "Young Master Wang, you …"

With a "shua shua" sound, shua shua, shua, shua. In an instant, the entire book was torn into pieces, one page at a time.

Du Golden Light said with a pained heart, "This … "This is a precious collection …"

After tearing the paper without batting an eyelid, Bing Ying pointed at the scattered pages and said, "Boss Du." Look, what are these? "

Du Jin said sorrowfully, "This is my Heavenly Mystery Geography!"

Bing Ying said, "Just now! "And now?"

Dudian replied: "The torn Geography of the Sky!"

Bing Ying held a chapter and chapter piece of paper in her hand and said, "This is the newspaper! Or it could be called a flyer! "The truth is the same, but the nature of the content is different!"

When Du Xiangyang saw the stack of papers in Bingying's hands, his eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light!

He seemed to have realized something …

However, he couldn't say it himself!

However, his intuition told him that he was experiencing something legendary!

Many years later, when Du Jinxing became the great media mogul of the Tianyue Dynasty, he mentioned this in his memoirs more than once: The greatest and most mysterious Queen of the Kingdom of Tianyue, Beitang Bingying, has advanced and innovative ideas, beautiful eyes and unfathomable wisdom! When the Queen introduced me to the newspaper, I felt like an ignorant frog at the bottom of a well! But I have always believed that we will usher in a new era of empire!

Bing Ying took the opportunity to explain the changes in Du Golden Light's expression and said, "The nature of the newspapers: these pieces of paper are the newspapers, also known as flyers! The leaflet compels others to accept what you want to spread, and the newspaper is what you volunteer to spread what others want to know, or what they are interested in. "

Du Jin fell into deep thought …

Bing Ying continued, "Let's not talk about the flyers first. As a complete propaganda tool, this thing is too singular. What we want to talk about is — The newspapers! In another world, when the computer came out, the newspapers ruled the earth for 500 years! Even later on, when the world entered the era of advanced information on computer networks and mobile phones, it was never able to replace the important role newspapers played in people's lives! "

Du Golden Light was completely captivated by what he heard...

Bing Ying began to explain the details of the newspaper's production, distribution, editing of its content, and so on.

"Oh my god!"

"This... This will be a completely new and subversive starting point! "

"Young Master Wang, if you say these words to others, others will definitely think you're a lunatic. But my Du Family's three generations are all running a bookstore, although I don't know if your plan is feasible, just listening to you talk about it is enough to make my blood boil! If this plan can be implemented, then our achievements will definitely be recorded in history! "

"Awesome!"

"This is the beginning of a legend!"

Du Golden Light was abnormally excited!

Bing Ying smiled and said, "Of course it's possible! It worked! I have already thought about it carefully. The books in circulation in the imperial government are all too few. And if we give out newspapers for free, who wouldn't want to read them? "

Du Jin said: "What?" Free? That... "How can I do that?"

Bing Ying said, "Why not?"

Du Jin said, "Master Wang, do you know how much it costs to print a book?"

Bing Ying shook her head and said, "This Boss Du should be an expert, right?"

"According to the circulation of 2000 books, the cost of a single book would be about five silvers. Based on the circulation of 500 books, the cost would be twelve silvers. Currently, books on the market, excluding the quality and content of the paper, were priced around 8 or 9 silver coins. In other words, if the volume of a book is less than 1000, it will be impossible to sell. Even if it were to sell all of it, it would be a loss! "

Bing Ying asked, "How many people are there in the Tianyue Kingdom?"

Du Jin thought for a moment and said, "About eight hundred thousand!"

Bing Ying said, "What about the town entrance?"

Bing Ying was extremely shocked!

Eight million?

That was eight hundred million!

Was there that many people in this dynasty?

This was too unbelievable.

Bing Ying remembered that in the history of China, the number of people in the Qing Dynasty was the highest, yet it still hadn't exceeded 100 million!

If the dynasty had really eight million people, then it would be much more prosperous than the Tang and Song dynasties!

Why was there no mention of such a dynasty in Chinese history?

"About two million!" Du Jin replied.

Bing Ying said, "How many people per household?"

Du Jin replied, "There are about seven or eight people in the small families. A large family would have at least a thousand, or at least a few dozen. "

Bing Ying said: "Then let's call it ten for each household! Those who can read, just take it as 20%. In other words, every five families (50 people) needed to publish a newspaper! 100 pieces of paper for one book, that would require a total of 40 thousand books! "Owner Du, how much is the total cost?"

Du Jin calculated carefully and said, "The total cost is about four thousand taels of silver. Because the circulation rate is enormous, the total cost is less than one hundred taels of silver!" However, if we were to set up a book bureau in all the cities and towns of the country, in addition to the staff expenses, the total cost would be a huge sum! "

Bing Ying said, "Money is not a problem!"

Du Jin calculated and said, "That is a huge number! Furthermore, if it were to be released free of charge, it would definitely erode a lot of capital! "

Bing Ying laughed, "How about this. Boss Du, how much does it cost to publish a newspaper every day and then add up all the other expenses? Just give me a certain number! "

"At least! One million two hundred thousand! "

When Du Golden Light said this number, he was also shocked!

One had to know that the treasury only had a yearly income of one million and five hundred thousand silver taels!

"One million two hundred thousand!" It was indeed a bit much, but no problem! Money is not a problem! "
