The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

"Teacher, I have completed the task!" Zhou Buyi reported happily.

"Is this also called task completion? How do you sell newspapers? I invested 50 gold to let you hire newspaper boys?" Liu Ke scolded.

"..." Zhou Buyi.

"Build some newsstands on the main streets of the city, and sell some books by the way. Some down-and-out scholars are called to work as assistants, or they are contracted out. Also, some poor students want to conquer the imperial examination. They have a job at a newsstand, and they can also be editors, don't let them idle around." Liu Ke said, and arranged many jobs.

"Teacher, you are amazing!" Zhou Buyi said.

"In the future, if you fail the imperial examination twice and do not have a proper job, you will refuse to take the imperial examination for the third time, even if you are a rich second generation." Liu Ke said, what occupations should be specified in the future, such as teachers, newsstands, etc. can continue to participate in the imperial examinations, Some wealthy second generations wanted to rely on their family's property, but they directly refused.

Reading dead books cannot create value!

"By the way, the third imperial examination is about to start. Go to the Ministry of Rites, discuss the rules, and then publish them in newspapers." Liu Ke said.

Teacher, is there no one who can use you?

Zhou Buyi was full of slander in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, because to be honest, he had run away recently.

I don't know if these old guys from the Ministry of Rites can talk well?

When the newspaper published the first information about the imperial examination, it immediately detonated the audience.

If you want to participate in the imperial examination, how can you rest assured if you don't buy a newspaper to read it yourself, let alone ten copper coins.

As a result, the sales of newspapers have been rising all the way. This issue of the newspaper about the imperial examinations sold a total of 50 copies.

After all, not only people in Dongyang City were watching, some students bought several copies and mailed them to their friends.

Why not sell a favor for ten copper coins?

Newspapers suddenly became a hot industry, and everyone knew about it.

As the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Sima Hui also appeared in front of people and became a man of the hour in Yangzhou. He didn't have to walk with his head down when he met Cai Yong.

The students in the private school held their heads high and stood up, contributing articles to the newspaper one after another.

Some random remarks also came out, and Sima Hui whipped around with a whip, which made Zhou Bu suspicious and terrified.

Apart from Sima Hui, the most famous ones are the potters and brothers Liu Shang. They also became popular and their business is booming.

Businessmen have always been very keen and immediately saw business opportunities in newspapers.However, these people were all driven away by Sima Hui.

Liu Ke didn't run a newspaper for fun. After seeing some followers appearing, he directly asked the government to arrest them and lock them up for a few days before releasing them.

As far as speech is concerned, it is better to keep it in your own hands.When the trend of thought develops imperceptibly, it will definitely be too late for the aristocratic family to stop it.

However, there are still giants from the chamber of commerce who come to visit, hoping to get a share of the pie.

Chapter 390 Invitation

"Report, Qiao Dong, the manager of the Qiao family, is asking to see me."

Since the Qiao family disclosed the news of the "Youzhou Project", Liu Ke has changed his view of the Qiao family. All the remuneration that should be paid has been settled, and there has been no contact recently.

Liu Ke considered it again and again, and finally agreed to meet Qiao Dong.

After Qiao Dong was led in, he kept his head in trembling.

"Little man Qiao Dong, meet the Marquis of Dongyang!"

"Just tell me if you have anything to say." Liu Ke said.

Qiao Dong handed over a tightly wrapped package and said, "This is a letter from the Patriarch who asked the villain to hand over to Marquis Dongyang."

Liu Ke unwrapped the outer silk packaging, and there was a faint fragrance from the inside. The content of the letter was very simple, it was to invite Liu Ke to Zuixianlou to talk about the old days, and at the end, he mentioned the newspaper office.

"Tell your patriarchs not to meddle in the affairs of the newspaper," Liu Ke said.

After Liu Ke said that, he definitely didn't go to the appointment. Qiao Dong knew it well, so he had to leave.

"What's the matter, someone asked you out, and you don't look happy." Zhao Yu laughed.

"A lot of people who have invited me have gone, wouldn't it be annoying if they all go?" Liu Ke shook his head.

"Go out and relax." Zhao Yu said.

"Forget it, it took me a lot of brain power to bet with Mr. Shui Jing, the rules of the newspaper still need to be improved, and the imperial examination is coming..." Liu Ke said, it can be met, and he will be busy in the next time pass.

Although Liu Ke gave Zhou Buyi a lot of trouble for reporting to the social media, it didn't mean that Liu didn't care anymore.After all, newspapers, like banks, are new things. Liu Ke still needs to pay attention to the prospects and give advice to the people below.

"It's because you're busy that you need to relax." Zhao Yu said.

"Yes, yes, Yu'er is right." Liu Ke said.

Zhao Yu put away the invitation, and Liu Ke left with a glance.

Three days later, Zhou Buyu came to report something, and said, "Teacher, recently many merchants want to establish a newspaper office."

"Directly promulgate a decree to prohibit it." Liu Ke said resolutely.

"Also, the Qiao family hopes to join our newspaper." Zhou Buyi said, "I can't deal with women, so I'll leave it to you, teacher."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Busu lost the invitation and ran away.

No big or small, the rules are not binding in front of him.

Liu Ke also put the invitation on the shelf and didn't intend to pay attention to it.
