Chapter 469

The most important thing was the honor of being published.

And although it was not much.

But in reality, it was not little either.

It was still a sum of money.

50 wen.

Enough for an ordinary family to eat and drink for many days.

For a second-class maid like Shishu, it could improve her life.

If she could be published a few more times a month.

That would be even better!

If it could be stable.

Relying on submissions to support oneself was not impossible.

This made Shishu especially happy, and the other maids also looked at her with envy.

After giving the manuscript fees.

Jia Hui intended to leave.

Before leaving.

He suddenly smiled at Lin Daiyu: "Lin Meimei, you will be published in the next issue!"

"I will give you a special column, with a minimum of 100 wen per article, and there will be opportunities to increase the manuscript fee in the future."

At this moment, Lin Daiyu saw Li Wan and the others receiving their manuscript fees.

She was feeling depressed.

Hearing Jia Hui's words at this moment.

She was instantly pleasantly surprised!

She had originally thought Jia Hui didn't like her work.

Who knew she had misunderstood.

Her pretty face instantly turned red, and she was very embarrassed.

And then very pleasantly surprised!

Seeing her reaction, Lady Wang was angry and disgusted in her heart: "My Baoyu is still being locked up by this villain, and you are actually fawning over this villain, feeling smug over such small money and favors!!"

She was incredibly angry.

It was just that it was not a good time to act out.

Daiyu didn't care about the money, although having it was better.

She wanted to ask what a column was.

But thinking of Baoyu.

She was not in the mood to ask.

Jia Hui, however, was understanding and briefly explained it to them.

It started from the early Western newspapers when they published news.

At that time, the layout of each line started from the left end of the newspaper to the right end, and then started a new line from left to right, until the news was finished.

Such newspaper news made it extremely inconvenient for readers to read, as they had to constantly shake their heads from left to right for every piece of news.

Sometimes, readers would easily lose their place when changing lines.

So, later, someone divided the newspaper layout into several vertical strips, and such a vertical strip was called a column.

Therefore, Jia Hui giving Lin Daiyu a column was of a very high status.

"In the future, you can propose comments and your own views in the newspaper. When readers open the newspaper, they will hope to see short articles by columnists with their own views. There will be relatively fixed and stable manuscript fees."

"In addition, Madam Zhu is the same."

Currently, only the two women's level was enough to open a column.

The number of columns was limited.

Tanchun and the others' level was not enough, so Jia Hui wouldn't give them one.

Otherwise, it would be a laughingstock.

It was better to wait until their level improved.

And then open a column based on their own level.

Learning that she also had a share, Li Wan was very happy and excited!

Tanchun was a little disappointed, but she also knew there was a gap between her level and the two women's, but thinking of Jia Hui's previous words, she quickly regained her spirit: "Right, I need to find a famous teacher to teach me, so I can quickly improve my level. That Mr. Cheng Yu also published last time, and the article was written extremely well, if I could apprentice under him, it would be great."

At this moment, Jia Mu and Lady Wang didn't want to hear about newspapers, manuscript fees, manuscripts, or columns.

They wanted to ask Jia Hui how to let Jia Baoyu go.

Jia Hui didn't give them a chance to ask.

After encouraging the women, he said goodbye and left.

Leaving behind the secretly happy Concubine Zhao and Lady Xing, the worried Jia Mu and Lady Wang, and the angry Jia Zheng, and the others with different thoughts looking at each other.

"What kind of thing is this!" "It's all Baoyu's fault, making the house restless!"

Seeing this scene, only Fengjie muttered secretly, throwing all the blame on Jia Baoyu.

And essentially, this time it was Jia Baoyu's fault.

Truly a prodigal son who only knew how to eat, drink, play, and cause trouble!

A useless piece of trash!

【338】The ambition to build the Prospect Garden! The atmosphere is heating up

Let's talk about Jia Hui.

Happily and in a great mood, he left the Rongguo Mansion.

As soon as he went out, he saw the opposite gate closed.

The Ningguo Mansion guarded by his subordinates.

His heart moved.

"This Ningguo Mansion is mine now."

"It's time to send someone to connect this Ningguo Mansion and the Wushuang Marquis Mansion, and the plaque should also be replaced."

Jia Hui pondered in his heart!

But to connect the two mansions.

It would probably require funding for repairs.

Jia Hui would have to ask an expert to study it.

But it would probably cost a lot of money.

In his memory, the Rong and Ning mansions spent two or three million taels to renovate the Prospect Garden to welcome the imperial visit.

It probably exhausted the assets of the Rong and Ning mansions, plus Lin Daiyu's family inheritance.

Causing the Jia family to be unable to sustain itself, relying on pawning things to survive, which led to their total defeat. Even without being raided, the Jia family would inevitably not be able to hold on.

If he just did simple repairs, not to the extent of the Prospect Garden.

It would probably cost a few thousand taels, at most a few tens of thousands.

"But the Prospect Garden, this is the Prospect Garden, why don't I build one?"

Thinking of the Prospect Garden, Jia Hui was immediately tempted.

When the time comes, gathering all the beauties and playing in the Prospect Garden with them, wouldn't that be beautiful?

This made Jia Hui more excited the more he thought about it.

If Jia Hui didn't build it.

The Prospect Garden relying on the Rongguo Mansion would basically have no chance.

Because the Ningguo Mansion was gone.

Without the funding from the Ningguo Mansion, plus the Rongguo Mansion had been fleeced quite a bit by him during this time.

Plus the beauty Jia Yuan Chun, he wouldn't let her go.

Naturally.
