Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

#191 - Chapter 191 Arrangements before departure

Li Miaohan smiled, revealing her charm.

Fang Zheng said: "Your Highness, although my family is poor, I still have some spare money, so don't worry."

"Does Your Highness like this gift of mine...?"

Li Miaohan nodded: "I like it, but I still want to see what diamonds actually look like."

So she is a woman after all!

Fang Zheng sighed inwardly: "Alright! If Your Highness likes them, I will have a batch of diamonds delivered tomorrow!"

"Then... I'll take my leave."

Li Miaohan's expression was a little complicated: "Are you really going away for eight or ten years?"

"I don't know... I'm not sure. Your Highness doesn't need to worry about me. I will definitely perform well and return to the capital as soon as possible... return to the capital soon!"

Li Miaohan nodded firmly: "Good! This palace will intercede with Father Emperor for you, and strive to get you back as soon as possible!"

Fang Zheng grinned: "Thank you, Your Highness, I'm leaving!"

After speaking, Fang Zheng left without looking back.

Li Miaohan reached out her hand behind him, opened her mouth as if to say something, but finally helplessly lowered her hand.

After bidding farewell to the princess, Fang Zheng immediately rode his horse to Banshan Ward after leaving the palace.

He had already arranged for people to make arrangements in Taoyuan County.

Now, all that's left is Li Yuanzhao's side. After giving him some instructions, he can go straight to Jianjiang to take office.

When he arrived at the newspaper office, Li Yuanzhao greeted him enthusiastically.

"Your Highness, I will be leaving in the next few days, so I came to say hello to Your Highness."

Li Yuanzhao had a long face: "You're leaving so soon? Isn't there still a month left?"

"The sooner I go, the sooner I come back! I came this time to see if there are any problems with the newspaper office. After everything is settled, I can rest assured!"

Fang Zheng looked around and saw that many of the investigative reporters who had been sent out had returned.

They had actually gained a lot of weight.

Looking at Shen Yi not far away, he smiled and said: "How is it, Little Shen, have you investigated anything interesting?"

Shen Yi smiled and said: "Lord Fang! I went to the Zhang family to investigate, and they were extremely enthusiastic! They treated me to fish and meat every meal, but when I asked for details, they knew nothing!"

"The new manuscript has already been written! The Zhang family is extravagant and attempts to bribe reporters!"

The reactions of the others were similar.

Fang Zheng almost laughed out loud.

These rich dogs never expected that they would be entertaining a group of idealistic white-eyed wolves.

They didn't get any benefits and even implicated themselves!

Fang Zheng said loudly: "Everyone has worked hard. Don't continue this topic in the future!"

"All the manuscripts are to be discarded and replaced with new ones!"

A group of reporters immediately stood up when they heard this: "Lord Fang, why is this! Didn't you ask us to do this?"

"That's right! Didn't you say that you want to uphold justice and give the world clarity!"

"Are we going to retreat in the face of authority now?"

Many people seemed very emotional.

Fang Zheng quickly pressed down with both hands and said loudly: "This official knows that you have ideals and passion, but this is not the way to do things."

"The newspaper office is still in its infancy. We can't afford to offend some people, or we don't know what kind of trouble will arise if we offend them!"

"You think you are doing good, but you may end up harming many people!"

"Before doing anything, think carefully and use your brains!"

"This official has now been demoted and is about to go to Jianjiang to take office! Do you still want the Crown Prince's reputation to be harmed!"

Li Yuanzhao tugged at Fang Zheng and whispered: "Lao Fang, I don't care..."

Fang Zheng ignored him.

"From now on, all news about the court and political affairs is not allowed to be written anymore. Just write about people's livelihood."

"If we encounter injustice, we must take care of it, but it must be within our capabilities!"

"Moreover, people's livelihood is no small matter. Everyone, do your best!"

Many reporters sat back in their seats dejectedly, obviously dissatisfied, feeling that the newspaper office's structure had been hit.

Fang Zheng smiled slightly: "Don't be discouraged, everyone! Eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time!"

"There will always be opportunities to develop new businesses in the future!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is cultivating you as future talents of the court! If you don't understand the people's sentiments, how can you be the master of the people!"

I didn't think so... You're making up stories again, Li Yuanzhao stared blankly.

"As long as you do a good job! You will be promoted and get a raise in the future, and earning one or two hundred taels a year will not be a problem!"

"When the newspaper office becomes popular, you will also rise with it! At that time, not only will you be respected, but you will also be able to eat and drink well!"

"Brothers! Is there a problem!?"

"No problem!!"

After eating the cake, the reporters of the newspaper office obviously recovered a lot of energy.

Shen Yi hesitated and raised his hand, whispering: "Lord Fang, I have a question."

"Speak!"

"Can our cafeteria... not make salt water anymore? Can we make some soup? Many people have opinions about this matter..."

"What!" Fang Zheng was dumbfounded. Wasn't it supposed to be egg drop soup! How did it become salt water!

"Ru Yun! Ru Yun!!"

"Lao Fang, stop shouting!" Li Yuanzhao quickly interrupted.

He whispered: "I told Ru Yun not to put eggs in it. That little bit of eggs... it's almost the same as not putting them in. I thought it would be better to just make some salt water."

"I calculated the cost before, and salt is quite expensive. The newspaper office is not making money now..."

Fang Zheng's eyes widened as he looked at Li Yuanzhao.

You are a ruthless person!! Much more ruthless than me!

Good fellow, not even eggs in the egg drop soup?

You learn quickly... You learn bad things even faster, as expected of the Crown Prince!

Fang Zheng turned to the crowd and said: "Don't worry, everyone! The soup problem will definitely be improved for you! How can you just drink salt water!"

"Everyone, get to work! I'll go help you solve the problem!"

After speaking, Fang Zheng pulled Li Yuanzhao to the first floor.

He was stunned when he entered the cafeteria. It really was a pot of clear water, without even a thickening agent.

He called Ru Yun over, and Fang Zheng said loudly: "Double the amount of eggs in the egg drop soup from now on! Do you understand?"

Ru Yun looked dazed. Now that there are no eggs, is doubling it still no eggs...?

"Understood!"

Li Yuanzhao clicked his tongue in amazement: "Lao Fang, I also feel that their treatment is a bit poor, but the cost can't be suppressed!"

"You used to calculate the accounts, but now that I've given it to me, I realize it's not easy to do!"

"I want to improve their food, but if I do this... the more I do, the more I lose. Now that the number of reporters has increased a lot, the cost of sending them out is already very high. I'm losing money now, and I don't have any money in my hands."

"Or... can you lend me some money? I'll pay you back when I earn advertising fees in the future?"

Fang Zheng righteously refused!

"Your Highness, this is not how business is done!"

"There is no reason to do business at a loss. Ru Yun! How do you usually serve the food?"

Ru Yun picked up a large spoon and demonstrated it.

Fang Zheng frowned and scolded loudly: "Can you serve the food like this! Let me teach you!"

After speaking, he snatched the big spoon and started to shake it...
