Clear Wear and Lie to Win

Chapter 93 Competition
Yinzhen thought that since he wanted to do it, he had to do it well, so he paid a lot of attention to this academy.

Yinzhen read the excerpts and knew that Qihuan and Qi Yu's master and apprentice proposed this matter, and they planned to contribute their own funds. Yinzhen thought about his private treasury and planned to be generous.

When Yinzhen passed on the news, the head of the Propaganda Department, who was almost 50 years old, thought that the emperor would take it too seriously.

Yinzhen issued a Taoist decree. He not only planned to provide funds for the construction of the academy, but also gave a piece of land suitable for the construction of the academy.

Moreover, Yinzhen's imperial decree also stated that as long as the academy is well run, part of the academy's expenses can go to the public account as appropriate in the future.

Qi Yu and Qihuan master and apprentice really did not expect the emperor to be so caring, giving money and land to return follow-up funds.

With the emperor's strong support attitude, both Qi Yu and Qi Huan became motivated. Qi Yu's "Biography of the Imperial Examination" has been serialized, which was not long at first, and "The Ranger" was published immediately.

The novel comes from life. Most of the content in Qi Yu's "The Ranger" is his real experience of traveling around after he was unsuccessful. The content is indeed not bad. It describes the customs and customs of different places. I got a lot out of it and learned a lot from it.

It's a good book, a bit like a travelogue, but with a few differences.

After Qi Yu wrote this "The Ranger", he temporarily stopped writing. On the one hand, he needed to keep an eye on the academy, and his energy was limited. His focus was on the academy, and it was inevitable that he would be unable to do anything else.

Another point is that after a series of circulations in the "Beijing News", people have been able to accept the novel as a genre and separate it from the script.

And because of the supportive attitude of the emperor Qiyu for building an academy, some people began to try to write novels. Some scholars like Qiyu are ahead of others, and scholars are afraid of comparisons. Those who dare to send their manuscripts to the "Beijing News" are all with good skills. Coupled with the draft after several times of deliberation, Qi Huan was a little dazzled by the selection.

I used to worry about not having any manuscripts, but now I worry about too many manuscripts.

The serialized novels in the "Beijing News" are also very attractive to some scholars and female relatives who do not intend to take the imperial examination. They may not be interested in state affairs, so they don't need to read "Government News" and "Dawn", but they are interested in entertainment. In the ancient times of scarcity, novels are very attractive.

Gradually, the sales volume of "Beijing News" surpassed "Zheng Bao" and "Dawn", which made "Zheng Bao" and "Dawn" start to feel a little bit of crisis.

Because the newspaper industry is still in the groping stage, if there is a problem, they will naturally find a way to solve it.

Since the "Beijing News" has novels that attract people, both "Politics" and "Dawn" are tools that are biased towards the role of the country's sounding boards. Like the "Beijing News", serial novels will be a bit frivolous and inappropriate. In the end, the Propaganda Department An unremarkable person gave a more practical suggestion.

The suggestion is that "Politics" and "Dawn" jointly publish a column, which is dedicated to deciphering some secrets of past dynasties.

There are many unofficial histories circulating in the market, some of which have some basis, but some of which have no basis. "Politics Daily" and "Chenxi" published a series of topics, looking for some historical figures who are very easy to be misunderstood, such as Emperor Sui Yang, this kind of people mentioned The first impression is the emperor who is a foolish emperor, or the emperor or courtiers who have been busy worshiped in history.

This way is not particularly difficult to say, but if this column is done well, it will be very interesting.

Scholars, don’t they hope that their views will be recognized by history and become the truth believed by one generation or many generations.

The column jointly developed by "Politics Daily" and "Dawn" is indeed effective, and because the content of the two newspapers is different, if you want to pay attention to the whole process, you must buy both newspapers. Anyway, one is only a penny, and it takes a month to reach the sky. For five or six pennies, the sales of "Politics" and "Morning Sun" have indeed increased.

Yinzhen has also heard about this matter, so it's good, there must be competition in any industry, if they are in a state of stagnation, Yinzhen might have to worry about holding that little thing and gnawing on it!

　It’s almost the end of the deadline, and it’s already entered the review month. In order not to retake it in the coming year, the update may come and go.
