Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 399 What are the manuscripts?
Because the Daming Morning Post is about to be published, for a period of time, Liu Jin went to the Imperial Academy every day to order something, and then went straight to the Daming Morning Post.

"My lord, this is the first issue of the Daming Morning Post that we have decided, please read it."

Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang are the editor-in-chiefs. When Liu Jin came, they also showed Liu Jin the manuscript that had been typeset and finalized long ago, and asked Liu Jin to review and check it.

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Liu Jin smiled and nodded, looking carefully.

"The Tartars seized the customs, and the soldiers invaded Gansu and Shaanxi."

The most conspicuous, the top ones are of course important national affairs. This is because someone from the Daming Morning Post is dedicated to connecting with the imperial court, so the above are all written in classical Chinese, which is very brief.

"In the future, all the manuscripts of major national events can be published in the formal official format, but they must be explained in vernacular in detail below, so that more people can understand them."

Looking at the classical Chinese, Liu Jin felt dizzy all over. He had learned classical Chinese at least. Although the system was used to cheat in the exam, he still understood a little bit, but he still seemed to have a headache.

So after thinking about it, I told Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang that things related to national affairs should not be easily changed or commented on indiscriminately, as long as the matter is reported in detail.

"Yes~ I'll let someone change it."

Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang looked at each other, nodded quickly and said.

"Southwest chieftain Milu rebelled, and the mountain camp made great achievements~"

"This is the same. As long as it is published in classical Chinese in the future, it must be explained in vernacular. In addition, except for the important events of the court, all other news will be published in vernacular."

Seeing the second press release, Liu Jin also nodded. There is no problem with the arrangement and typesetting, and the state affairs are put first.

"Yes~"

Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang nodded quickly, although they didn't quite understand why Liu Jin, a scholar, admired vernacular Chinese so much. Isn't it good to use classical Chinese?

The language of classical Chinese is refined, the writing is beautiful, and a beautiful article can definitely be passed down through the ages. Can this vernacular be passed down through the ages?
But who calls Liu Jin the boss? They will do whatever Liu Jin says, 10 silver dollars a month, plus other benefits, etc. This is much better than teaching and selling calligraphy.

"Poor students, become Tian Shelang in the morning, and go to the Tianzitang in the evening~"

"What the hell is this?"

Liu Jin frowned when he turned to the third chapter, and read the manuscript carefully. It was about a scholar who grew up in a poor family and was brought up by his mother. , Guangzong Yaozu thing.

"Such things are rotten. There is nothing worth reporting on the morning paper. Our Ming Zaobao is a place to report news, not a place to tell such rotten stories."

"Damn it~ You won't be allowed to publish anything like this in the future."

Liu Jin directly put this manuscript aside. Are there still few stories about scholars in this era?

What is it that the rich lady fell in love with the poor scholar, and with the support of the rich lady, the poor scholar was admitted to the first prize, and came back to welcome the rich lady.

There are also poor scholars who were looked down upon by their relatives since they were young, made things difficult for them, and targeted them in various ways. In the end, the poor scholar was admitted as the number one scholar, and those relatives were severely beaten in the face.

In short, there are many, many kinds of stories. The most indispensable thing in this era is the stories about scholars. This is enough to explain the status of scholars in this era, especially those who can be admitted to giants and Jinshi. The carp jumped over the dragon gate and soared into the sky.

But Liu Jin’s Mingming Morning Post is not intended to promote these scholars and students. The Mingming Morning Post is meant to serve itself and serve the emerging capital of Ming Dynasty. All publicity and reports should be centered around this point. turn.

"Yes~Yes~"

Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang wiped the sweat from their foreheads slightly. They thought that this manuscript based on Liu Jin would definitely be appreciated and liked by Liu Jin. Who knew that Liu Jin would describe it as a story about a bad street , and will not be allowed to publish in the future.

"What the hell is this?"

"How can the matter of the oiran contest in the brothel Chuguan be published in our Ming Morning Post?"

"Remove it. From now on, nothing about the Qinglou Chuguan will be allowed to be published."

Liu Jin continued to watch, except for the first two manuscripts on major national events that Liu Jin thought were acceptable, none of the latter manuscripts made Liu Jin think that was acceptable.

Basically, the manuscripts were written around such things as scholars, scholars, brothels and Chuguan, but both Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang sent out these manuscripts.

Liu Jin couldn't help shaking his head. Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang are still traditional scholars. Things about scholars are important events, and they are all things worth reporting. These scholars, besides poetry and songs, are also brothels. Since ancient times, these scholars have also been proud of visiting brothels and Chu houses, and they all hope to pass down some good stories through the ages.

In this era, scholars like them have the final say, because they have status, power, and money, so they feel that the Ming Morning Post should report these things.

So much so that the selected manuscripts basically revolve around these things, but this is definitely not what Liu Jin wants.

"Withdraw~"

"No~"

After reading the manuscripts one after another, Liu Jin's face turned livid. What kind of manuscripts are they? Even if Liu Jin reads the manuscripts about sows climbing trees, he is better and happier than seeing these manuscripts.

The huge Bao Jiwen and Ouyang Wen's foreheads were constantly sweating, and the manuscripts selected by a few of them did not satisfy Liu Jin, and their absolutely good manuscripts were not good when they came to Liu Jin.

"Tianjin port caught a giant whale~"

"This manuscript is well written and can be passed."

At the end, Liu Jin saw a manuscript reporting that a whaling ship in Tianjin Port had caught a giant whale, which made Liu Jin nod in satisfaction.

The manuscript is written in vernacular, and the style of writing is very ordinary, but it can be regarded as a detailed report of the incident that happened here in Tianjin Port a few days ago.

Reporting on whaling is also very helpful to the development of the whaling industry, and it can be regarded as promoting the whaling industry, which meets Liu Jin's requirements.

"Is there any spare manuscript, bring it here and let me see~"

Looking at the manuscripts on the table, all the manuscripts to be published have been read, but Liu Jin was only satisfied with the three chats, and Liu Jin replaced all the others.

"Yes~ Yes~"

Bao Jiwen said hastily, and then hurriedly sent someone to take out more press releases, and also deleted the releases that Liu Jin had given in advance.

"Wang Enyi's life has changed dramatically when the prodigal son turns back without changing money?"

Liu Jin picked up the new manuscript and looked carefully, and soon saw the manuscript submitted by Luo Dong.

"Well, this manuscript is very well written. It should be published in a conspicuous position, arrange the space well, and persuade people not to gamble. It is very educational."

After reading it carefully, Liu Jin smiled happily. This manuscript definitely met his requirements. It reported an incident, and through this incident, it was promoted to the deposit business of Daming First Bank.

"Yes~Yes~"

Upon hearing this, Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang nodded quickly and replied.

Liu Jin read through the manuscripts one by one very quickly, and personally ordered all the manuscripts for the first issue of the Daming Morning Post. Except for the first two articles that publicize major national events, all the other manuscripts are also quite It is related to some industries under Liu Jin's command.

"That's all for these manuscripts, hurry up and do it, don't delay the release on July [-]."

After selecting the manuscript, Liu Jin instructed Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang.

"Yes~"

Bao Jiwen and Ou Yangguang hurried to get busy.

Looking at the figures of the two, Liu Jin couldn't help frowning slightly when he thought about the manuscripts they had selected, thinking that he would replace them in the future.

The ideology of these people has been deeply ingrained, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough. I am very busy, and it is impossible to say that every issue of the Ming Morning Post will be checked and reviewed in person. In the end, I will choose someone who can meet my requirements to take care of this. Daming Morning Post.

"Go and call Zhang Xian over."

After thinking about it, Liu Jin ordered again, Zhang Xian is the daily manager of the Daming Morning Post, of course he is not in charge of the news releases, he is mainly responsible for the printing and distribution of the newspaper.

Liu Jin is very aware of the abilities of Bao Jiwen and Ouyang Yangguang, and he is so dissatisfied with letting them be the editor-in-chief. If he really wants them to manage all the affairs of the Ming Morning Post, he probably will sleep here every day in the future.

Therefore, in terms of printing and distribution of newspapers, we still arranged for people trained by ourselves. This Zhang Xian used to be a senior manager of the Tianjin Cement Factory.

"Sir~"

Soon, Zhang Xian came to Liu Jin.

"How do you plan to promote the Ming Morning Post?"

Liu Jin nodded, thought for a while and said to Zhang Xian.

"My son, I plan like this. I plan to distribute all the first few issues for free in restaurants and teahouses in Beijing and Tianjin, so as to cultivate everyone's habit of reading newspapers. Later, I will sell them again. I plan to Build several special outlets in Beijing and Tianjin to sell newspapers."

Hearing this, Zhang Xian thought for a while and said his plan.

"It's free in the early stage, and it will be sold at the point of sale in the later stage~"

Liu Jin also nodded after listening. After all, he was brought out by himself. This kind of thinking and thinking is still very good.

"There is no need to build this outlet. We recruit some children in every city. These children are called newspaper boys and let them sell newspapers for us."

After thinking about it, Liu Jin also expressed the thoughts of the newsboys of future generations, and at the same time, he couldn't help thinking about it. In the future, in a city in Ming Dynasty, the shouts of newsboys selling newspapers sounded.

　Yesterday's interest seems to be calculated too much wrong~ The primary school math teacher saw it and came over and knocked me on the head~
