Tang Dynasty good brother

Chapter 162 Make Money
Speaking of the operation department, Ma Zhou's eyebrows were frowned, and he said to Qin Hao: "My lord, do you want to discuss the matter of the operation department again as appropriate?"

Qin Hao was also taken aback, thinking that Ma Zhou was trying to establish his own authority, and frowned, "What? Does Master Ma have any good ideas?"

Ma Zhou hurriedly said: "Don't dare, dare not say anything in front of your lord. It's just that the matter of money and food has been confirmed with the Ministry of Civil Affairs before the officials come. It won't cost much, but this field work... I'm afraid it won't be able to do much. The next official suggests that we should build some small and elite teams first, and make some achievements in the first year, and you will be fine in the next year Open your mouth to add money to the prime ministers, what do you think?"

Qin Hao was taken aback, thinking that Ma Zhou was going to seize power from him, and he was worried about not having enough money after arguing for a long time.

If this Ma Zhou really wanted to fight for power with him, Qin Hao would be a bit of an understatement for his ability to make a name for himself in history, but what about money? . . .Hehe, what kind of joke are you talking about? With the Information Bureau, the Ministry of Culture, the Propaganda Department, and the Guangfu Bureau even with a bit of the National Security Bureau, would a yamen with independent executive power be short of money?It's funny, isn't it? Except for the official salary, Qin Hao didn't plan to take a dime from the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Qin Hao said: "Master Ma, what are you talking about? Now that the people in the world are exhausted, the war ahead is tense, and the treasury is empty, where can I get the extra money? I can't share the worries of the monarch. How could it be because of these gold and silver things?" If you want to cause trouble for the saints and the prime ministers, Mr. Ma, let’s accept the one hundred thousand coins. Don’t mention the matter of adding money. Since we want to save money, we have to leave the matter to the saints. Mr. Ma will take care of the money and food in the future. ,Thanks a lot."

Ma Zhouyi looked dazed, and almost sprayed Qin Hao's face with a mouthful of old blood.

Why do these frank words sound so good when they come out of your mouth?Want to do things, but don't want to spend money, how can there be such a good thing in the world?

Qin Hao said with a smile: "Master Ma, as the minister of the humerus that His Majesty favors, don't you have such a rigid mind, you are so ignorant, how can you be allowed to steer the big ship of the imperial court in the future? As long as you are willing to use your brain, The solution is always more difficult than it is.”

Ma Zhou was also in a hurry, he also has a temper, and immediately said with a bad face: "I am incompetent, I really can't think of such a way to achieve both, please enlighten me, my lord."

Qin Hao took it for granted: "Since ancient times, financial management has been nothing more than increasing income and reducing expenditure. Since you can't reduce expenditure, don't you know how to increase income? Apart from reaching out to manage the needs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, don't our yamen have other ways to get money? "

Ma Zhou pondered: "Could it be that what your lord is referring to...is the money catcher?"

Qin Hao pursed his lips and said, "Fart, the money we can earn from usury is not enough for our public funds... that... the public funds are used to investigate the public opinion environment."

Ma Zhou shook his head and said, "The lower officials are incompetent, I really can't think of any other way."

Qin Hao had no choice but to look up at the sky with his hands behind his back in desolation, pretending to be at a 45-degree angle, sighed, and thought to himself: Why are the officials of the Tang Dynasty so stubborn? This Ma Zhou is known as the most handsome man of the younger generation, and it seems that it is nothing more than that , how lonely I am invincible.

It was almost time for him to pretend, Qin Hao said: "Come on, you all come here, I will not do anything else this morning, let me tell you how to make money first."

The yamen just opened today, so there is no real work other than cleaning, and the logistics department is really busy, and the other places pretend to be working hard there, but in fact they are all listening to the first and second leaders discussing official affairs. The doorway is wide open.

Qin Hao said: "Where is the publishing house?"

"exist"

"The first thing you do this month is to report to me the residence. This thing is circulated twice a month, which is too little, at least ten times, and it is not enough to circulate to the local government. All households, as long as they are literate, must ensure that each of them can receive the Dibao, as for the content, you can choose it yourself, and then let me review it."

Old Zhang from the publishing office was stunned, and said: "My lord, didn't we talk about ways to make money? You are spending money, not a small amount of money. Let alone the paper consumption, light engraving is a matter of days. To do what you said As stated, it would cost almost one hundred thousand yuan a year just for the mansion report, which is too big a sum.”

Qin Hao said with a smile: "You use the corners of each mansion newspaper as an advertisement. The so-called advertisement means to advertise widely."

Then, Qin Hao explained the meaning of the advertisement to everyone in detail. Hearing everyone's surprise, he continued: "Think about it, this is a palace newspaper delivered by the imperial court's flying horse. Yamen, even all the scholars know that your things are ready, how much will they charge? We will have to open branches in Yizhou, Yangzhou, Luoyang and other places in the future. Can we use different advertisements in different places? Wouldn't it be a matter of a lot of money?"

"Wouldn't it be too much of a joke to print this kind of advertisement on... the imperial court's newspaper?"

Qin Hao spread his hands and said: "Only three newspapers per month, which can only be published in the official residence, and ten newspapers per month, which benefit the whole country but have a little advertisement, do you think that with the wisdom of a sage, he Which one will you choose?"

Ma Zhou thought about it silently, and said, "It's still not enough. After all, there are not many merchants who need to advertise across the country, and the price may not go up. This advertisement is at most equal to the cost of printing newspapers, and it is difficult to make a profit."

Qin Hao covered his face and complained directly: "Master Ma, after all, you are also a person favored by the sage, can you turn your mind a little bit, we have to build huge printing bureaus in every state for this newspaper. Such a huge printing bureau In addition to printing newspapers, are you idle on weekdays?

Someone has to come up with a book to pretend to be something, someone has to print the family tree, every state and county has to do some paperwork printing, it's not money!Do you think anyone can compete with us given our background?
If someone does not print in our bureau, don't we still manage the publication?Who can find fault, and who told you that you can only advertise products?Can we get two inspirational stories every month in our newspaper? Don’t we need to charge money to help people brag?Wait, wait, there are many places that can collect money. "

Old Zhang at the publishing office was so happy that he could see his back molars. Not to mention, his real power has been greatly improved with this newspaper alone.

Qin Hao glared at him, and said, "Why are you silly? Why don't you hurry up and get all your people to advertise on the street for me? Whoever pulls the most ads is the deputy section chief of the newspaper department!"

Looking back at the sweaty Ma Zhou, Qin Hao felt sorry for him.

The guy has been lucky in the past two years, and some people even suspect that he is the illegitimate son of Li Er. He always thought that he was amazing in his talents and learning, and there were no more than three or five people in the world who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him. Even Qin Hao, who could make a name for himself The head is mostly because the hero has encountered a good time, and he does not lose in terms of ability.

But I didn't want to, just met for a while, and now he pointed at his nose and scolded him for being stupid, but he still felt that there was nothing wrong with him.

This fellow is so terrifying, is he really human?

But I heard Qin Hao say: "This newspaper is just a small head. There are many places to make money in our yamen. It is conservatively estimated that the net profit of three to five million yuan per year is still no problem. We can't give us all the benefits with so much money, of course. Use this money to do some great things for the Holy One.”
