Chapter 89 It’s a big deal
Chapter 89: Something big happened.
As soon as the gossip magazine was released, it really attracted the attention of many people.
However, the magazine received mixed reviews. Scholars scorned it, thinking that the study room was a holy place for selling books, so why did it publish some gossip that could not be published on the stage.
The common people loved hearing about it, and it even became a household topic. Suddenly, the reputation of Shengji Study House resounded throughout the capital.
The two parties had conflicting opinions, and Su Mingjue also absorbed a lot of opinions. In addition to publishing some fresh gossip news, he would also attach some popular science knowledge in newspapers and periodicals.
What should you do if you are flooded, how to escape from a flash flood, etc.
Although knowledge is neither painful nor painful, it plays a big role in educating the people. This makes those who criticize magazines for not being on the stage have to tone down their voices.
When Lu Shaoyu first heard that the gossip magazine was founded by Su Mingjue, he opened it with interest and took a few glances. The more he read, the more interesting it became.
This guy doesn't care about anything as long as he can make money, but what exactly is going on in his head? To ordinary people, these things are just a topic for conversation after a long meal. It's good that he actually thought of publishing it. It comes out and makes people willing to buy it.
When I first read it, I was a bit disgusted. Compared with his "Cricket on National Policy" and "Dream of Red Mansions", it was like heaven and earth.
But after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't live without it, as if it had some kind of magic power, and he would feel itchy if he didn't see the reward for a day.
Moreover, this newspaper cannot be said to be impractical. Occasionally, it will publish some practical things, such as vegetable prices, predicted weather, and even missing persons notices.
Compared with the boring and boring arrival report, this kind of thing seems to be more in line with the taste of ordinary people and more life-like.
Therefore, Lu Shaoyu almost subscribed to the monthly magazine and waited for the newspaper to be delivered to his door every day.
Rong Zheng was also shocked by this. If "A Dream of Red Mansions" was the whim of a young master from Jinling City, then the development of the gossip magazine that followed was more like a test of the waters by the King of Jinling.
Could it be that the Jinling City There are new moves on the side.
Meng Helan just watched it for fun. As long as it was written by Su Mingjue, no matter whether it was good or bad, he bought it and read it. While reading, he laughed and said that this kid made a lot of money again.
Lu Shaoqing bought them all and collected them all, and even kept them as meticulously as making bookmarks.
Of course, Su Mingjue was completely unaware of all this. He had always felt that he was just an ordinary person, not as ambitious as other time travellers, and that he must have made a career in ancient times. In his opinion, everything was nothing but Development in line with historical trends.
Although modern people have surpassed ancient times in some aspects through a series of developments, they have always believed that the torrent of history is unstoppable. It does seem a bit "smart" to cross those small things, but it is not enough to completely change the entire world. In terms of social structure, every society has its own layer of operating rules. Human beings are short and insignificant, and there is little chance to shake them.
However, some things are strikingly similar.
After the gossip magazine developed smoothly, Su Mingjue took advantage of the situation and launched advertising services. If any store wanted to promote his products or shop, he would give them a page for promotion.
However, in order to prevent the credibility of the magazine from being shaken, Su Mingjue personally selected all the advertisements. Only those that he had rigorously inspected and determined to be worthy of the name would he agree to publish.
Everything was going very well, and the buyer, the seller, and he all achieved a win-win situation, but if someone makes money, someone will naturally imitate it.
As soon as Su Mingjue's newspapers were launched, they attracted the attention of the people and naturally attracted the attention of many studies.
Everyone followed the trend and imitated it, and founded many similar newspapers and periodicals, such as "Beijing Common Things", "Daily Fresh", etc.
Su Mingjue didn't care about them. After all, this was normal. If someone made money, someone would imitate them. It was just a normal choice in the market.
However, he still underestimated the followers of some people, and a copycat version of his gossip magazine actually appeared. His gossip magazine was named Xiaoxin Magazine, and the copycat version was called Xiaoxin Magazine.
The name and pronunciation are not much different. It doesn't matter if it is just Pengci's name. The main reason is that it involves a murder case.
The reason has to start with advertising. Ever since Su Mingjue founded the weekly magazine to publish advertisements, other magazines have followed suit.
But Su Mingjue's advertisements were carefully selected, and the others were unconscionable. Over time, everyone still trusted Xiaoxin Magazine more.
That day, someone came to Jingzhao Yin to report to the police, saying that he saw a medicine in Xiaoxin magazine, which was very good for treating bruises and bruises, so he bought it and tried it. Unexpectedly, this medicine actually killed the head of her family. Instantly collapsed to the ground.
There was more than one victim of the same thing, more than 20 people were tangled together.
Su Mingjue was attending class like this, and was summoned by Jing Zhaoyin.
Jingzhao Yin Mansion.
Jing Zhaoyin was wearing an official robe and an official hat. He clapped his hands and said,
"Who are you in the hall? Why are you reporting this crime?"
A man in a blue robe knelt in the center of the hall, lowered his head and cupped his hands and responded: "My lord, common people. My surname is Zhang and my first name is Wu. I want to sue Xiaoxin Magazine for publishing false information and causing us to be deceived into buying fake medicines."
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhaoyin glanced at the master next to him and asked, "Do you have a complaint?"
The person lowered his head and raised the complaint above his head in response: "Replying to your lord, here is a complaint written by a commoner. Please take a look at it."
The master immediately walked down the hall, took the complaint, read it briefly, and handed it to Jing Zhaoyin with a frown.
When Jing Zhaoyin saw this, he also looked at it carefully. He clapped his hands and asked: "Su Mingjue from Xiaoxin Magazine, someone has accused you of falsely publishing products, do you accept it?"
This is the first time Su Mingjue has come into contact with ancient times. To be honest, he was a little curious about the court at first. He had only seen this thing in TV series, and he never thought that one day he would stand in a government office.
However, when he later heard someone suing him, his expression instantly became much calmer. Although he did not understand the ins and outs of the whole matter, he probably guessed what happened through the details.
He responded calmly: "It does belong to the student, but the student hasn't had time to find out what is going on."
Jing Zhaoyin looked towards the front of the hall, but he didn't expect that it was a young boy talking. He was wearing a Confucian shirt and standing according to the rules, so he asked: "Although you are a student, you are not a scholar. Why don't you kneel down when you see me?"
Su Mingjue was startled when he heard this. He had forgotten this rule. He used his original body in Jinling City before. As a person, he does not need to kneel before others, so he has always been no different from modern people.
At this moment, he heard someone asking him to kneel down. Although it was a requirement in feudal society, he still found it difficult to accept it.
However, one should do as the Romans do when one is in a rural area. When he was going down to report, he heard a heated discussion outside the yamen.
"People from the north sent people to deceive our students from the south, arresting them when they asked, without any scruples."
"Let them go, let us go!"
"They promised that the students from the north and the south would be the same, but in fact it is still unfair."
Jing Zhaoyin stopped when he heard this and gestured. The officer checked the situation, and Su Mingjue also looked puzzled. Why did this matter suddenly become messy? It was a bit unconventional.
