Chapter 421
Yet this was a fact!
Xiao Qinyan therefore couldn't deny Jia Hui's excellence.
"Even my son is far from being comparable!"
This made him think of Gu Qianfan.
Yes.
Gu Qianfan was his son, to be precise, his illegitimate eldest son.
Gu Qianfan's nominal father was actually his uncle.
Gu Qianfan's maternal grandfather's Gu family was quite prosperous decades ago, but there were no heirs in the family, the uncles had no children, only his mother, who gave birth to a son.
And Gu Qianfan's previous name was Xiao Fan, and he was also on the Xiao family genealogy.
It was not because his father was a matrilocal son-in-law, so he took his mother's surname, Gu.
After Gu Qianfan's biological mother, Shu Niang, passed away, Xiao Qinyan, in order to find new support, married another wife, but this wife could not tolerate the existence of Xiao Fan. After all, the existence of the eldest son of the original wife both constantly reminded her that she was a successor and would block the path of her own future children. Xiao Qinyan was not afraid of his wife but was afraid of the Empress.
For the sake of his future, Xiao Qinyan painfully sent Xiao Fan away and changed his name to Gu Qianfan.
In Xiao Qinyan's eyes.
His own biological son was still incomparably excellent.
And he loved the other party incomparably.
In the drama, when Gu Qianfan first asked Xiao Qinyan for help, he was so happy that he forgot himself, directly saying he wanted Gu Qianfan to inherit his mantle, without mentioning other sons.
But after comparing with Jia Hui.
He was instantly killed and turned into scum.
This left the old father, Xiao Qinyan, speechless.
Lost in thought for a moment, "If only this Jia Hui were my son."
Suddenly, Xiao Qinyan had such a thought.
Then he shook his head hurriedly.
"Eh. If it were really possible, actually adopting him as a foster son wouldn't be bad!".
【302】 Marketing routine! Free and cost
The thought of wanting to adopt Jia Hui as a foster son appeared.
But soon.
Xiao Qinyan smiled.
He was amused by his own thought: "This person is now the Marquis of Wushuang! A proud and arrogant person, even if I am the Chief Councilor of the Cabinet, he wouldn't lower his status to worship me as a foster father! What a pity, what a pity!"
Saying this.
The more he thought about it, the more regretful he felt.
As if he had missed out on a billion!
He shook his head helplessly.
Just as he wanted to continue reading.
He had to admit at this moment.
He was somewhat attracted by this newspaper!
This was much better to read than any Di Bao or novel.
It was quite good for killing time.
"Sir, we have arrived."
But before he could continue reading.
The attendant's voice stopped him.
Xiao Qinyan was startled.
He helplessly handed the newspaper to the other party and said, "Keep it safe, I'll read it when I go back."
"Yes."
Subsequently, Xiao Qinyan had no choice but to get out of the sedan chair.
During the process, his action of handing over the newspaper was seen by many people.
Interested people took note of it.
And he was surrounded by many officials of the Empress's party who discovered him.
Together, they crowded into the Wumen Gate.
What he didn't know was.
The head of the pure stream party who opposed him, Qi Mu, was also doing much the same at this time.
Jia Hui's "Great Gan Daily" was quietly setting off a trend in the imperial court.
Seeing that the two big bosses were reading this newspaper.
I believe it won't be long.
Before it becomes popular among the officials.
Compared to the officials who had to go to court.
Others were much freer.
Among them was Lin Shixian, whose real name was Qu Yanxing.
He was the illegitimate son of the Jingyuan Marquis Qu family.
Because he hated the disputes of the imperial court and the struggles for family interests, he had been doing business abroad for many years, using the pseudonym Lin Shixian, and was a kind man.
Qu Yanxing did not take a sedan chair, with only a small servant following behind him.
He walked freely on the street.
He was also attracted by the newsboys' voices.
And it wasn't just him.
Gradually, many shops were also attracted.
Including the shopkeeper of a familiar tea house he was going to.
"Kid, come over, your newspaper costs five wen?"
"In reply to the distinguished guest, if you want it, it's free."
"Why?"
The tea house shopkeeper was surprised.
Qu Yanxing, not far away, was also curious when he heard this.
"Our President said, all restaurants, tea houses, taverns, brothels, etc., are delivered to you for free."
"You can sell them at the same price of five wen, and however many you sell, the money is yours!"
"However, this only lasts for the first three days. After that, the wholesale price will be unified at 4 wen, and you sell them for 5 wen, making a net profit of 1 wen. You cannot sell them at a high price. Our newspaper office has a unified price. If there is any violation, cooperation will be terminated upon discovery."
"In the future, payments will be made every ten days."
The newsboy respectfully and patiently said what he had learned before.
Jia Hui's free sales actually meant he was subsidizing the costs himself, giving them to these merchants to sell, and however much they could sell was up to them, and any profit was theirs.
This was actually just a very common promotional marketing tactic in modern times.
This rule was set by Jia Hui.
Here, I need to talk about the cost issue.
Great Gan's paper.
One tael of silver can buy one thousand sheets!
Lower quality ones can probably buy two thousand sheets.
Of course.
What was mentioned above was book-sized.
The newspaper used much larger ones. ===== CHAPTER 422 =====
