I Am the Crown Prince in France
Chapter 82 Freedom Fighters
Deniko hurriedly walked up and shouted to the bewildered supervisor: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you apologize quickly? This is the boss of our newspaper.
"Yes, yes." The supervisor took a few steps back nervously and bowed repeatedly, "I-I'm very sorry."
Joseph gestured to the workers around him: "You should apologize to them."
"Ah, yes." The supervisor turned around, lowered his head to those people in simple clothes and said, "I'm sorry..."
Denico frowned and shook his head, "Let's go."
The supervisor hurriedly fled out of the warehouse. In the process, he stepped on a rope binding a roll of books and almost fell to the ground.
The workers all looked at Joseph gratefully. The brave ones even bowed to him and said, "Thank you, sir, you are such a kind and good man."
Joseph noticed the cracked skin of the workers and told Denico: "Mr. Denico, please buy some lanolin and give it to everyone for free use, but be sure not to get frostbite.
"Also, in the coldest month of every year, we will give everyone an extra week's wages as a subsidy to keep out the cold."
Denic nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, I remember it."
The workers couldn't believe their ears. They felt that this young aristocratic boss was simply the incarnation of an angel. Not only did he stop the supervisor from beating people at will, but he was also so generous to everyone.
These simple workers didn't speak much and just started working again silently, but their hands were obviously much faster than before, and they were a little more careful when bundling and placing books.
Joseph continued to walk forward along the gap between the books, and picked up a pamphlet. He saw that the paper was gray and rough, obviously the lowest kind, and the printing was also very crude. Only the middle seam was painted with some kind of The plant fibers were simply sewn, barely able to unravel.
However, this booklet has 16 pages, including 5 illustrations.
He looked at the mountain-like pile of books, turned around and asked, "Mr. Denico, how many copies have been printed this time?"
Denico quickly took two steps forward: "Your Highness, 30,000 copies of each of the two brochures have been printed, which should be enough to sell in Paris and surrounding towns."
Joseph nodded: "How much does this volume cost?"
"Because there are a lot of pages, it costs 1 sous and 5 deniers." Denic added, "The lithographic printing you invented is really amazing. Without it, the cost would definitely exceed 3 sous. .”
In fact, if the previous copper plates were used for printing, no brochure would dare to have five illustrations - the cost of engraving copper plates would increase the cost of the brochure several times.
It can be said that the brochure launched by Paris Business Daily is definitely the most luxurious benchmark in the brochure industry.
Joseph said without hesitation: "Then sell it at cost price."
"Yes, Your Highness." Denico has become accustomed to the boss's luxury. The last time those newspapers were priced, if shops hadn't rushed to advertise, they would have lost money.
Joseph opened the booklet in his hand. The first few pages were filled with cool novels, and in the middle was an article about "How Much Money Are the Judges of the High Court Earning?"
A total of four such articles were included later in the interval between cool articles.
Joseph read it roughly and found that the quality of several articles was really unsatisfactory. The writing was slow and did not arouse the readers' anger, and it was difficult to resonate.
He couldn't help but frown slightly: "The content of the article should be more inflammatory."
Denic nodded awkwardly: "Yes, I will try my best."
Joseph also knew that he could not be blamed for this. Paris Business News was just a tabloid that sold hundreds of copies before, and the editor's ability was just that.
He thought for a while, pointed to the pamphlet in his hand and said: "We can make some improvements in the title first.
"For example, "How much money are the judges of the High Court greedy for?" can be changed to "Angry! If they say there is no money, get away, you don't deserve to win."
"The following article, "The Truth About Justice Vezinier's Trial of Leon's Inheritance Case," is called "Shocking! A story that has to be told between a widow, two men, and Justice Vezinier."
"The impact of the failure to register the tax bill on the country's finances" was changed to "It's terrible! They are taking France's money, but we don't know it"..."
Denico's eyes suddenly widened.
Speaking of which, these topics seem to be slightly related to the content of the article, but it doesn't seem to be the case.
But the most important thing is that these titles are so tempting. Anyone who sees this title will definitely not be able to help but read the following articles!
He sighed inwardly: If the Crown Prince became a reporter, he would be competed by major newspapers just based on his ability to headline this story.
As Joseph was talking, he saw a newspaper executive gesturing to Denico from a distance, who hurriedly said to Joseph:
"Your Highness, the guest you are waiting for has arrived."
Joseph nodded and came to the newspaper office with Denico.
A middle-aged man with disheveled hair and deep nasolabial folds was waiting here.
When he saw the two people coming in, he stood up and saluted Denico: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Denico. Thank you for publishing my article. I wonder why you came to see me?"
De Nico immediately followed Joseph's instructions and said to the latter: "Mr. Xavier, this is Mr. Marat."
He pointed to Joseph, who was wearing a three-cornered hat: "Mr. Marat, this is the boss of our newspaper, Mr. Xavier.
"Oh, it was his instruction that your article was published in the newspaper."
Marat hurriedly bowed to Joseph and said: "Thank you very much, Mr. Xavier. You are really young and promising, and you have managed Paris Business News so well."
Joseph returned the favor with a smile and gestured to the chair next to him: "Mr. Marat, please sit down."
Yes, the main purpose of his coming to the newspaper office today was to meet Marat, the famous Jacobin leader in history, the god of death who could make three thousand heads fall to the ground with just a few signatures.
The article Marat wrote analyzing the tax bill met with obstacles everywhere, and finally submitted it to the "Paris Business Journal".
De Nico needed this kind of manuscript at the time, so he published it directly.
When Joseph saw Marat's name in his newspaper, he suddenly had an idea and asked Denico to make an appointment with him.
Joseph knew very well that although Marat was just a reporter with sharp writing on the surface, he was actually very energetic and well-connected, and he had great influence among the people at the bottom. If done correctly, he might be able to play a big role in his battle with the High Court.
However, in view of Ma Shashen's extremely repulsive attitude towards the royal family, he could only choose to change his identity to meet him.
After Mara sat down, Denico excused himself that there was something going on in the warehouse and left.
Joseph looked at Marat and smiled: "I have always admired you very much, Mr. Marat. You are a true freedom fighter."
Marat was obviously very happy with this title, and he immediately bowed and said: "It is my honor to fight for justice and rights for the French people."
Because this book will be on the shelves tomorrow morning, the author is begging for the first order. This is very important to the book. I hope everyone can support it. The author is grateful!
