The laws and decrees issued in Chang'an were often slightly distorted by certain officials for profit. Although the court had official bulletins, the information was not detailed. Under such circumstances, we could set up some printing workshops upstream of the rivers.
All the things happening in various places were reviewed and then published and sold. For example, the various workshops in Lingnan, the various fruits and sugarcane plantations, the white doughnuts in the Western Regions, the beef and mutton jerky in the plateaus and grasslands, the wood industry in the Northeast, the seafood along the coast, and the laws of the court could all be made known to the people in detail.
Of course, some royal anecdotes can also be published to let the people know about the princes. The daily lives of His Majesty and His Majesty can also be written about to prevent the people from always thinking that His Majesty uses a golden hoe and eats a cow for one meal.
You can also write about the court's punishment of corrupt officials and some of the court's laws that benefit the people to boost people's morale.
This not only makes a little profit, but also lets the people know what is happening in different places, and can control and guide public opinion, which can be said to kill three birds with one stone. "
After listening to Wang Zheng, Li Zhi pondered and said, "This method is indeed a good one, but when reviewing the printed content, we must be stricter, and we must not let the aristocratic families get involved in this matter."
The emperor who successfully came to power is actually the most successful politician in the world. He naturally knows what the key points are when he uses newspapers, a powerful tool that can guide public opinion.
Li Zhi pulled the corner of his mouth and sighed, "What the steward said really disappointed me. This time I wanted to explore a little to see if there is any immortal mountain overseas. After hearing what the steward said, even if I find an immortal blessed land, I may not dare to visit it."

Li Zhi sighed, "The Grand Steward's realm is always so lofty. I am a little worried that the Grand Steward will be gone with the wind one day."
After getting on board, I felt the huge size of the ship even more. Standing on the deck, the view was excellent.
After Wang Zheng pondered for a moment, he smiled and said, “I planted a seed in Yuzhou, and the roots grew into a seedling in Lingnan.”
Wang Zheng shook his head and laughed, "Haha, facts have proven that the sky is not suitable for human habitation. It is unbearable to go up from the plateau to a height of a thousand feet. The prosperity of the human world is still better. Your Majesty, do you think that if there are gods, will they also fight?"
Xiao Yuehua said loudly: "Only big ships are stable. The sea is so rough and the waves are so strong. A small boat can't stand it."
Wang Zheng shook his head and said, "Indifference comes from looking at things lightly. You must first have everything within your reach before you can look at everything lightly. If it is always out of reach, it is impossible to be indifferent.
I know that you always have hopes in optimism, so I give you a blow in advance. If you are disappointed now, you won't be so disappointed in the end. This will prevent you from being too disappointed at once and feeling too sad.
Dozens of two-meter-long oars were lowered into the water from small hatches on both sides. After rowing together several times, the ship began to move slowly backwards.
If there really are gods in heaven, I think they must be fighting endlessly. Maybe they would even envy the peaceful life of us mortals."
Li Zhi pondered for a moment and nodded. After everyone was secured on the large sofa in the cabin, the ship began to move slowly.
Over the years, I have discovered that all living things have something to desire. Birds, beasts, fish, and insects seek food and reproduction, and often kill each other for this purpose. Flowers, plants, and trees seek sunlight and nutrients from the soil, and their roots in the soil will actually entangle and strangle each other.
After Wang Zhen and everyone walked around, he came to Li Zhi, bowed and said, "The ship will be a little bumpy when it starts. Your Majesty, Sir, and the other princes can go to the cabin to rest first. It won't be too late to come out and enjoy the scenery after the ship is running smoothly."
Li Zhi thought about it seriously and said with a smile: "There should be some, fighting for elixirs, magic weapons, sacred mountains, blessed caves and so on, maybe even fighting for female fairies, after all, even if the female fairies are all beautiful, I think there will always be differences in quality.
"Thank you, sir."
It took nearly half an hour to start a large sea ship. However, after the first large sea ship was started, it was much more convenient and quicker to use thick iron chains to drive the subsequent large ships to turn and start. However, it still took half a day to start all thirty large sea ships.
Wang Zheng nodded and smiled, "Of course, it's because the princes wanted to do something that I brought up this idea."
Wang Zheng nodded and said, "People who do their job well are naturally respectable, but it's too early to talk about passing on the family line. Your Majesty, just take good care of yourself. Whoever goes first is up to you."
"You're welcome. This is exactly what you should do."
Wang Zheng affirmed: "The profit can still be guaranteed. Even if the profit of the newspaper itself is not high, you can still make a little more from business. For example, the products produced by various workshops can be published in the newspaper to advertise them, and fees can be charged for this."
“Is it just a seedling?”
Under the clear sky, the big ship cut through the waves. Standing at the bow facing the sea breeze, Li Zhi suddenly felt heroic and laughed: "I have never felt like I truly own the whole world like I do now. What do you think now, Grand Steward?"
However, if all the gods were as indifferent as the chief steward, there would be no fighting."
"It's a good idea to spread the word." Li Zhi nodded and smiled at Li Xian and his brother, "Your teacher's method is indeed very suitable for you. Thank you, teacher."
As the group chatted, they arrived at the pier and saw the large ship docked. Li Dan was the first to exclaim in surprise: "What a big ship! It's much bigger than a house."
Li Zhi smiled without commenting.
Li Zhi said with satisfaction: "The chief steward has always been thorough in his work. I still trust him. But can this newspaper really make a profit? After all, although paper is already very popular, the price is still not cheap."
Wang Zheng bowed slightly to apologize, and said with a smile: "I am sorry to have ruined your majesty's pleasure, but if you really want to find a blessed place, your majesty can just knock on the door. I am willing to be your vanguard."
Li Zhi also came to his senses a little, sighed and said: "The chief steward still doesn't believe in ghosts and gods."
Wang Zheng laughed and said, "Back then, the Buddha spent several years entering famous mountains and rivers, searching all over the world, and in the end he still came to the conclusion that I am the only one who is supreme in heaven and on earth. This I actually does not refer to the Buddha himself, but to everyone."
Li Zhi raised his eyebrows, "So the chief steward doesn't think the Buddha is a Buddha, but a sage?"
"good."
