Chapter 1691： seek money

Time passed quickly, and Zhulan got the new newspaper. The new edition of the newspaper was not all serialized stories, but also short stories. There were not more than five stories above. The stories were selected from the author's popularity, and there was not one newcomer story.

The story of Concubine Chen is on the homepage. How should I put it? Even if Zhulan was used to reading articles in ancient times, she still felt that the vernacular was better, and at the same time she sighed that Concubine Chen was a talented woman.

Li didn't like the script, she was shocked that her mother-in-law bought so many, "Mother, how many copies did you order?"

"Not much, twenty."

Li Shi, "..."

Is that not much? My mother-in-law ordered 20 copies by herself. Counting the orders from each hospital, she ordered nearly 30 copies at home. A newspaper is not cheap.

Li thought of the price, "Why are the newspapers that tell stories so expensive? One hundred and fifty cents per copy."

"Paper is expensive."

Even with the continuous improvement of papermaking, the price of paper has not come down. The paper used for newspapers is not the best paper. If you use good paper, newspapers will be more expensive.

Mrs. Li, "A newspaper can't be ordered if you don't have the money."

"The future will be better."

"My daughter-in-law probably won't be able to see it."

Zhulan thought that it was not necessarily true. Now she couldn't read the story, so she put down the newspaper and read it later, thinking about writing a post and sending it to Prince Qi's mansion. The signature must be signed.

There was a lot of discussion about the serialization of the story, and all the copies of the watermark were sold out, and the subscription volume was still good.

In the Ministry of Household, Zhou Shuren was holding the new newspaper in his hand, Qiu Yan was stunned, "Your Excellency still read the script?"

Zhou Shuren, "Look at it too."

Qiu Yan shook his head, "Xiaguan doesn't like scripts."

He seldom even went to the theater, mainly disliked it.

Zhou Shuren's copy is not a subscription. It was given to him by the propaganda department. He took it and took a look.

Qiu Yan sighed, "I'm really old, and I can't keep up with the changes."

He never thought that the court would have so many more ministries. It seems that the court has been changing rapidly since he knew Zhou Hou, and he was a little powerless in the face of new things.

Zhou Shuren said in his heart that the future will be handed over to young people, "Tomorrow will be lively in the morning."

Not everyone can accept changes. There are many stubborn people. Every time there is a change, he has to argue, as if he has a sense of existence, and he is too lazy to listen carefully.

There have been riots since the news spread, and now that the newspapers have come out, there will be more riots, hey!

Qiu Yan smiled, "You don't have to go to the early morning when you are appointed to office tomorrow."

He didn't want to watch this kind of fun.

Xia Yamen, the home where Zhou Shuren and his fourth son arrived together, got off the carriage and saw Changzhi holding the box, "What did you buy?"

Changzhi, "Father, this is a painting that Gu Sheng gave his son."

Zhou Shuren stretched out his hand and did not speak, the meaning was obvious.

Changzhi, "!!"

In the end, Zhou Shuren took the box and left, Changzhi stood for a long time without moving, and he was gone before he looked!

Back in the main courtyard, Zhou Shuren smiled and handed the box to his daughter-in-law, "It's for you."

"You bought it for me on purpose?"

Zhou Shuren, "Grab it."

Zhulan had already opened the box, and when she saw the painting, she smiled, "Who is it for?"

"Stealing your son."

Zhulan had seen Gu Sheng's paintings and knew Gu Sheng's words, "Gu Sheng painted it, this is for Changzhi."

"He said that Gu Sheng gave him, why don't I believe it, he must have hinted."

Zhulan smiled, "It's mine now."

The next day, at the Hanlin Academy, Gu Sheng arrived early and saw Lord Zhou rushing forward, "How do you feel about Xiaguan's painting?"

Changzhi, "..."

He hasn't opened the box yet, his father is going to the morning, and he hasn't seen him yet!

Gu Sheng's heart skipped a beat, don't you like it? He put a lot of effort into this painting, and it took several days to complete it, "Sir?"

Changzhi coughed, "I haven't watched it yet."

Gu Sheng was stunned, why not take it home and look at it? Lord Huishen Zhou has left.

With a sneer, Zhuo Guyu came over, "You really disappointed me. I thought you wouldn't give gifts, but I didn't expect it."

Gu Sheng, "..."

He clearly got a hint to draw it!

Zhuo Guyu entered the room in a good mood, but Gu Sheng was just like that, and the stone in his heart instantly loosened a lot.

Changzhi didn't know that his actions made Gu Sheng's reputation worse, and he was thinking about watching paintings at night.

Qi Wangfu, Concubine Chen had breakfast early and waited. It was the first time someone asked her for an autograph. She received Yang's post yesterday and knew her intention. She didn't sleep much all night. Who is Yang, who can edit books and write articles? Odd woman, Yang's asking her for an autograph is her recognition!

Princess Qi sat aside. She didn't believe her mother-in-law's words. When she saw Mrs. Zhou Hou holding the newspaper, she fell silent!

Zhulan put down the newspaper and said a little embarrassedly, "I ordered twenty copies."

Concubine Chen narrowed her eyes with a smile, "It's okay, let alone twenty or hundreds of copies."

Zhulan, "Then I'll order more next time."

Concubine Chen, "Okay, I will sign as much as you order."

Zhulan thought that she must order more. Now a newspaper is one hundred and fifty articles, and I don't know how many times it will be multiplied in the future. Where is the newspaper that is obviously gold!

Princess Qi was very confused. She didn't believe that Madam Zhou Hou was holding her mother-in-law in order to please her, "Why does Madam subscribe so much?"

Zhulan knew that she couldn't fool the two women in front of her, so she said bluntly, "I'll keep it for my descendants."

Concubine Qi felt that Mrs. Zhou Hou's ideas were very strange, and she also thought that Mrs. Hou could compile and write articles, and she could understand some strange ideas.

Zhulan said to the concubine again: "Your manuscript must be sealed. I don't know you are Mr. Yan now. What about the future? The manuscript in your hand is the evidence."

Concubine Chen, "Yes, you are right."

Concubine Chen was reminded to send someone to buy the first issue of the newspaper, and she had to save more. These are all evidence.

When Zhulan came home from Prince Qi's mansion, Mrs. Li came back from the banquet. Today, she took Yuyi and Yujiao with her. The two girls went back to the courtyard to rest, and Mrs. Li was waiting for her in the main courtyard.

Zhulan, "You didn't go back to rest, but what news did you hear?"

Li helped her mother-in-law change her clothes, "Well, the news about Yong'an's government."

"What surprised you?"

Mrs. Li hung up her mother-in-law's clothes before answering Duke Yongan wanted to send his granddaughter to the backyard of the Prince's Mansion. You know, I was surprised that the lady of the Duke's Mansion was engaged. "

Zhulan was surprised, "That Zoya?"

"It's her, so my daughter-in-law was surprised."

"It's really surprising, who's set?"

Li's expression was a bit indescribable, "The Luo family is settled."

Bamboo Orchid, "..."

What the Luo family asked for was not money but money. The granddaughter of the Duke of Yong’an must have a rich dowry, and the Duke of Yong’an asked for support.

Li said, "The marriages in Yong'an's mansion are all marriages."

She didn't like that the child's marriage was a bargaining chip, and she didn't like the Yongan government, and she didn't like the Luo family.

Zhulan said, "Benefits come first."

Li Shi smiled again: "Today, my daughter-in-law heard something about the Luo family. Recently, the reputation of the Luo family has been affected a lot."
