Chapter 66: 66

“Fifty people? Three hundred taels per month?”

　　After some introduction, Chen Luo learned that the other party was the head of the House of Representatives of Zhongjing Academy, and immediately put forward his own ideas.

　　It’s a pity that Chen Luo didn’t learn the ruthlessness of capitalists, and still offered a monthly salary of 300 taels, which is 15,000 taels a month.

　　There’s no other way, things always have to take the first step.

　　Wei Yan’s eyes were about to go to the sky from the side. The head of the school obviously came here with a request, why are we giving them benefits instead? It’s a pity that Chen Luo didn’t see it at all.

　　Just as he was about to transmit the sound, he was cut off by a righteous qi and turned his head. It was the female head of another school who squinted at him.

　　”Lord of Wan An wants to start a new newspaper and serialize stories?” Kong Tianfang stroked his own beard, and asked, “But all of them are as strange as “Du Shiniang”?”

　　”You guys also know about “Du Shiniang”?” Chen Luo was stunned, but he didn’t expect that Nan Yuanxi’s publicity effect was not bad, then shook his head, “”Du Shiniang” is just a short story, what I want to serialize is a long story. The million-character kind!”

　　”A million words? All of them are Yawen?”

　　”Of course, otherwise what would I do with fifty Confucian scholars who ‘write a thousand words’?”

　　The head of the academy looked at each other, and they still remember what Kong Tianfang said before—

　　”Writing about Zhong Kui and then writing about Du Shiniang, who knows what he can write next?”

　　”That’s a real treasure chest!”

　　Well, it has not been a few hours, and these words can already be verified.

　　Kong Tianfang pinched his beard again and shook his head slightly: “Lord of Wan An, this is not right!”

　　Chen Luo sneered: “Then… five hundred taels? If you demand more then this cooperation doesn’t make sense anymore!”

　　Kong Tianfang waved his hand: “The old man’s meaning is, how can you give me money? To be able to transcribe the masterpiece at its publication date is the luck of the student and the honor of my academy. Everyone, don’t you think so too?”

　　The heads of the House of Representatives nodded.

　　”Exactly, how can I receive Lord of Wan An’s money?”

　　”For scholar’s matters, talking about money is very vulgar!”

　　”Anyway, it’s a transcription, and the students also have to practice it on weekdays, it won’t take much effort!”

　　Chen Luo looked puzzled and glanced at Wei Yan, who nodded slightly.

　　”But… we can’t let the students be busy for nothing.” Chen Luo still asked, he didn’t want to be discredited among Confucian scholars.

　　”No!” Kong Tianfang said with a smile, “The academy has its own credit system. I will pay the students different compensation. It’s all voluntary. Please rest assured, Lord of Wan An!”

　　”But!” Kong Tianfang suddenly raised his tone, “There is one thing this old man thinks is not right!”

　　Sure enough, there is no such thing as a free lunch. The academy refuses to ask for money, it must be something of higher value.

　　Chen Luo sighed in his heart and asked, “What is the request of the head of the Confucius Institute?”

　　”10,000 copies, too little! How can this be enough for our eight academies?” Kong Tianfang looked upright and said loudly.

　　Chen Luo: (#?Д?)

　　”Exactly!” The head of the women’s academy nodded, “My Red Sleeve Academy, with calligraphy as the foundation of the academy, has no less than 400 female Confucian students who have entered the realm of calligraphy. You only want 50 people, you’d only need one academy.”

　　”The first words of principal Feimei are reasonable. Although I am not in the eight major academies, I am also quite accomplished in calligraphy. The number of suitable Confucian scholars from my school is no less than 500, and only fifty people are too few.”

　　”Exactly!”

　　”Lord of Wan An, think about it again!”

　　”Seconded!”

　　”The old man also agrees!”

　　Chen Luo’s face twitched slightly, and he said tentatively, “How about 20,000 copies?” Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

　　”Forty thousand!” Kong Tianfang waved his hand, “Lord of Wan An doesn’t need to worry about personnel matters, just send us the article. I’ll arrange it immediately! This is just the beginning, if one day, Lord of Wan An’s new report will be comparable to The Newspaper, all of us can also accommodate that many personnel needs!

　　”However, I have only one request for this matter. This can only be left to my eight academies, and Lord of Wan An will not ask anyone else!”

　　Chen Luo nodded blankly, this most troublesome thing is solved like this?

　　At this time, Kong Tianfang suddenly changed his mind, and a smile appeared on his face: “Lord of Wan An, this old man asks, have you already decided on the first serialized story for the new newspaper?”

　　When the head of the House of Representatives and Wei Yan heard Kong Tianfang’s question, they immediately pricked up their ears and looked at Chen Luo.

　　Chen Luo nodded naturally, “Laughing in the Wind”, Xiao Ji has almost memorized it!

　　”Is there a sample draft?” Kong Tianfang asked excitedly when he saw Chen Luo nod.

　　”Yes…” Chen Luo continued to nod and shouted, “Xiao Ji!”

　　Ji Zhong heard the words, walked in from the outside, and saluted the school heads of the  Confucian Academies.

　　”Give me the manuscript!” Chen Luo stretched out his hand, and Ji Zhong immediately took out a stack of paper from his arms and handed it to Chen Luo. This is the first part of “Laughing in the Wind” written by Chen Luo before going out. The manuscripts he wrote before are still in the Chen Mansion in Wan’an County.

　　Chen Luo took the manuscript and handed it to Kong Tianfang: “Head of the Confucius Institute, please revise it as you see fit!”

　　”I don’t dare!” Kong Tianfang stretched out his hand to take the manuscript, just glanced at it, and his eyeballs went in. The head of the House of Representatives saw that Kong Tianfang’s expression was different, and they all gathered around…

…

“Political Minister, the matter of the morning has been cleared up.”

　　In the main lobby, Zhou Zuofeng, the prime minister of the Xuan Dynasty, was checking the news from various newspapers. Hearing the report of a person coming, he slowly closed the memorial in his hand, leaned on the back of the chair, and closed his eyes slightly.

　　”Speak!”

　　”Yes!” The reporting official said quickly, “In the morning, Beifeng Building had a ‘wake up early’ by Nan Yuanxi, who delivered a strange article called “ Lady Du Angrily Sinks Her Treasure Chest”. Master Wang Qifeng and all the disciples were present.”

　　”After this article was finished, he was able to activate the Wenxin, and all the students in the venue were able to achieve a breakthrough on the spot. Wang Qifeng immediately brought Nan Yuanxi back to Zheliu Academy. They assembled all of the Confucian scholars of the Zheliu Academy to the Great Confucian Forum and asked Nan Yuanxin to deliver the same article again. “

　　”After Nan Yuanxi finished speaking, the literary rhythm of Shengwen Square was aroused. The students of Zheliu Academy broke through one after another, and Yang Ziting, the master of the enlightenment realm, was promoted to the Kaihua realm.”

　　”Just because there are too many promotions at the same time, the True Noble Qi in the Zheliu Academy area is shooting through the sky.”

　　Zhou Zuofeng nodded lightly: “Who is this Nan Yuanxi? Did he make the strange article?”

　　”Returning to the Prime Minister, Nan Yuanxi is just speaking on someone’s behalf about this article. The author of this article is…” Speaking of this, the other party’s face showed hesitation. After all, he had also heard about what happened in the court today. Although the attack was on the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Rites was a subordinate of the main hall.

　　”Say!”

　　”Yes, the newly promoted Lord of Wan An, Chen Luo!”

　　Zhou Zuofeng opened his eyes slightly: “Chen Luo? The pioneer of the fourth road to the sky, he really is like the wind and rain!”

　　”By the way, Prime Minister, there is another piece of news from this student, but I don’t know if it is accurate?”

　　”Tell me.”

　　”I heard that Chen Luo wants to start a new newspaper. The new newspaper is not a street language, but has articles in Yawen.”

　　Zhou Zuofeng heard the words, his face became serious: “Go and find out!”

　　”Yes!” The other party responded quickly and turned to leave.

　　Zhou Zuofeng looked at the memorandum on the table at this time and had no interest in opening it again. He turned his head and looked at the map of the world hanging on the wall on the side of the main lobby.

　　Above the map, there are millions of miles of wild plains, and there are countless demon mountains and forests below. To the west, outside the vast desert, is a Western Buddhist Territory where no border has been explored, and to the east is a sea of ​​stardust covered in islands.

　　As for Daxuan, in the middle of the map, the thirteen states are divided on it, occupying the largest position on the map.

　　”The fourth road to the heavens, I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse…”
