Chapter 293 Shy Boss Murong
Ye Chen sent Shen Qiu away because there were some things that he could not tell Su Mengjiao.
Seeing Ye Chen like this, Murong Yan frowned slightly and said to Yu Niang: "Yu Niang, go and get my treasured grape wine."
Yu Niang turned and left.

After seeing Yu Niang leave, Murong Yan turned to Ye Chen and said, "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"
"Yan'er, rumors are spreading outside the capital. I have decided to fight rumors with rumors, but this method can only be a temporary solution. I believe that public opinion outside the capital must not be arbitrarily driven by the words of powerful officials."
Ye Chen snorted lightly.
Although the people in ancient times were somewhat stupid due to education problems, people who were swept up in rumors would often burst out with great power.
This force is sometimes so great that it can even shake the foundation of a dynasty.
Yang Dechang and others spread rumors outside the capital, which aroused Ye Chen's vigilance.
It also made Ye Chen feel that he could not allow these powerful officials to act arbitrarily.
"Then what exactly does Your Majesty intend to do?"
Murong Yan asked with some confusion.
In his opinion, fabricating rumors was a simple thing, but she could tell that Ye Chen didn't just want to fabricate rumors.
"Yan'er, I want to establish an organization and find someone to write down all kinds of secrets on paper. Then send them to various places outside the capital and sell them. From now on, I will rely on this to spread rumors."
Ye Chen said to Murong Yan.
Hearing this, Murong Yan was slightly stunned, but immediately frowned.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Paper is so expensive that ordinary people can't afford it. I'm afraid it won't work if you want to use it to control rumors among the people."
The people most affected by rumors are naturally ordinary people.
Paper filled with all kinds of rumors must be very expensive, and ordinary people cannot afford it.
Murong Yan found it unlikely that this could be used to manipulate rumors.
"Oh, Yan'er, I know the price of paper very well, but I don't just sell these papers filled with various messages."
Ye Chen smiled slightly and waved to Murong Yan.
"Yan'er, come closer and listen. I'll tell you in detail."
Ye Chen looked at the door of the private room.
After all, there are imperial guards standing outside the door, and Su Mengjiao's men might be among them.
Ye Chen didn't want any news to leak out.
Upon hearing this, Murong Yan was slightly stunned, and then obediently approached Ye Chen.
Very quickly, Ye Chen smelled a faint fragrance.
This doesn't sound like the fragrance coming from a sachet, but rather the girl's own body fragrance.
Ye Chen couldn't help but compare the scent of Murong Yan with the scent of the beauties he knew.
But he immediately felt that the scent of Qin Man and Hua Rui, who were already married women, was no longer so clear.
The subtle fragrance of a virgin is indeed something that only a virgin can possess.
Ye Chen's heart was moved, but he didn't think of taking advantage of Murong Yan. Instead, he expressed his thoughts very seriously.
As she approached Ye Chen, Murong Yan could feel a strong masculine aura coming towards her. Her heart beat faster and her pretty face turned a little red.
It was also the first time she was so close to a man.
But after hearing Ye Chen's words, Murong Yan became more and more surprised, and even stopped paying attention to the aura on Ye Chen's body.
"Your Majesty, this idea is good, but can those so-called newspapers really attract the attention of the people? Moreover, although the newspapers are in limited supply, and some can only be rented, what if the people don't return the newspapers after renting them?"
"Furthermore, if we also need to find eloquent speakers to explain the contents of the newspaper to the illiterate people, that would also be a huge expense."
Murong Yan asked seriously.
And because she was very close to Ye Chen at that moment, their noses would bump into each other almost as soon as they turned their heads together.
So, Murong Yan spoke to Ye Chen with her head tilted.
"Haha, it's okay. Yan'er, just tell me how much you spent on hiring someone."
Ye Chen smiled slightly. It seemed that he was doing a losing business, but he knew best how low the cost of paper was.
Even if the common people don't return the newspapers after renting them, Ye Chen will still make money.
The reason why the supply is limited and most newspapers are only rented and not sold is to maintain the price of paper.
"Your Majesty, if you really want to do this, I am willing to help you with all my strength."
Seeing Ye Chen's determination, Murong Yan nodded and became a little excited.
If this thing called a newspaper can really be accepted by the people, it will probably not only spread throughout the suburbs of the capital, but also spread to the entire Dayu. If it is really done, then the public opinion will be influenced by this kind of newspaper.
When Murong Yan looked at Ye Chen, there was a hint of admiration in her eyes.
Not only can they make paper, but they can also come up with ways to use paper.
Murong Yan asked herself that she absolutely could not do it, and she felt more and more that Ye Chen's intelligence was far beyond her reach.
Of course, although Murong Yan admired Ye Chen very much, she also felt that this method could not last too long.
After all, this kind of business that involves paying money requires strong financial support. As far as she knows, Ye Chen has not yet taken control of the entire Dayu government, so he naturally cannot fully mobilize all of Dayu's money.
And paper is so expensive, so if you buy newspapers like this, you will definitely lose a lot.
Therefore, Murong Yan felt that something like a newspaper could only spread around the capital for a short period of time.
But even so, it's already quite amazing.
Murong Yan's mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts at this moment, but she didn't notice that a familiar figure had returned to the room.
"Old, boss."
Murong Yan was slightly stunned, and turned around to see Yu Niang holding a wine jug.
"Yu Niang, you're back?"
Ye Chen smiled slightly. He didn't feel much about Yu Niang's return. After all, he had said everything he wanted to say.
However, Murong Yan beside him suddenly screamed, jumped up as if she had been electrocuted, and distanced herself from him.
At this moment, Murong Yan's little face was almost red, and she felt panic and shy in her heart.
If there was a crack in the ground at this moment, she would definitely crawl into it.
