Thus it was decided that the Cui family was going to start a newspaper.

For an ordinary person, with no money, no connections, and no background, it would be extremely difficult to start a personal newspaper.

But the Cui family has all of these!

Not to mention that there is Lord Zheng in the court.

Just talking about Henan, there is Cui Xian's uncle Li Duanzai. It would not be difficult for him to expand the scale of the official newspaper in the province in four or five years.

The difficulty is——

How to open the first newspaper agency?

What is the name of the newspaper?

What areas are you interested in?

How to write newspaper content, how to review it, how to print it, and how to sell it?

How can you guarantee to make money?

Old Cui was full of confidence at first, but when she heard Xian'er ask her to be responsible for opening a newspaper agency, she was immediately confused.

She can’t!

She even didn't know what the official bulletin looked like, so how could she publish it?

Looking at the anxious old Cui, Cui Xian smiled and said, "Grandma, I believe you can do it."

"Whether our Cui family can become a prominent family in the future depends on you!"

Hearing this.

Old Cui was immediately shocked and said with a red face: "Okay! Grandmother will definitely publish this official newspaper, so you can rest assured, Brother Xian!"

Upon hearing this, Lin and Chen looked at their mother-in-law with admiration.

At the critical moment, it is still the mother-in-law who has to help. The two of them are still confused, but the mother-in-law is full of confidence!

But the next moment.

Then the old Cui who had made such a bold statement said hesitantly, "But Xian'er, you have to talk to grandma about what to do specifically."

Chen family members: "..."

Absolutely.

So you dare to take on this difficult task without knowing anything?

But since old Mrs. Cui asked so, Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Chen, and Cui Xuan all tensed up, looked at Cui Xian with serious faces, and pretended to listen.

That’s the official newspaper!

What a high-end thing!

They were all read by scholars and officials.

As these women who had just begun to learn education, they naturally had to use all their strength and means to take on this task.

But Cui Xian said that if one wanted to make the official bulletin successful in the beginning, one really had to rely on the women in the family.

Facing everyone's gaze, Cui Xian coughed lightly and said, "First, we need to rent a store. We can go to Zhuang Jin's house for this."

"Secondly, for printing and publishing, we will still cooperate with the He Yu family."

"Go hire an old scholar as the editor-in-chief... er, as the shopkeeper."

"As for content writing, there is no need to recruit anyone in the early stages. Grandmother, mother, aunt, and sister, the four of you will be the content writers and go around the streets looking for materials."

"In the later stage, we can accept paid submissions."

When Old Cui heard this, several people said:? ?

Are you kidding me? We are a bunch of half-baked people writing a court report?

How could anyone buy it?

Cui Xian knew that they were overthinking the issue, so he said with a smile, "Who says that the official newspaper can only publish articles, poems, and current events? Besides, even if we want to publish these, we don't have any information."

"Besides, few people are willing to read such boring content."

"What everyone likes to watch is melodrama, gossip, disputes, and vulgarity. Let me give you an example. Two sons of a wealthy businessman were fighting over the family property. They fought each other until their heads were broken and bloody. In the end, the elders of the family came out to mediate."

"A certain high monk from a Zen temple actually came to me for wine and meat in private."

"A certain official's concubine and guards absconded with the money."

"Neighbors in a certain village accused each other's ancestral graves of destroying their own feng shui, and threw black dog blood on each other's ancestral graves."

"Of course, you can't use people's real names. You have to use pseudonyms instead, and you have to mark it as a fictional story. That's all I ask. Do you want to read it?"

ah?

That’s too much!

When Old Cui and others heard this, their eyes widened and they looked extremely excited.

Wow, this is possible?

If you had told us this earlier, what would we be afraid of!

There is 'content material' that can be written all over the streets!

Old Cui even patted her chest and excitedly assured: "Brother Xian, if Grandma goes out for a walk, she can easily bring back more than a hundred pieces of content materials! I guarantee that each one will be different and attractive!"

"Tell me, what should we name this newspaper? Grandmother can start it in less than a month!"

Now, not only Mr. Cui, but also Mr. Chen and others have gained more confidence.

Cui Xian smiled and said, "Let's call it "Secrets in the Marketplace". It's straightforward and popular. When it becomes popular, we can change the name."

"OK!"

Old Cui agreed readily.

So, the women of the Cui family began to get busy.

The amazing thing is that they didn’t panic this time!

Just kidding, it's about secrets, gossip, and melodrama. There's no need to panic about such things!

It's totally my old job, I can't be happier.

The next period of time.

Cui Xian continued to study in the backyard.

The Cui family, the Chen family, the Lin family, and Cui Xuan started to run their business, renting shops, hiring shopkeepers, and... eating spectacles on the streets.

During that time, the entire Cui family was obsessed with eating melons!

Tsk, how come there are so many eye-popping melons in such a small city like Nanyang?

Well, that guy, the owner of a certain tea shop, raised a son for ten years, and it turned out that he was not his biological son.

There was also a mainstay of a certain opera troupe who was caught having a secret meeting with the wife of a certain family in the City God Temple. They fled without even having time to put on their clothes!

A wealthy businessman secretly kept a mistress and was caught by his own wife, who even scratched her face!

When Cui Xian occasionally took a break from boring studies, he would hear his grandmother and others excitedly talking about these explosive gossips, and he felt deeply moved.
