The Immortal Cultivation World of Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy-Chapter 165. Selling comics and royal uncle throughout the Cultivation World

Chapter 165: 165. Selling comics and royal uncle throughout the Cultivation World

After the three sat down in a quiet place, Fang Zhou couldn’t wait to recommend Yu Qing’s novel to Wei Yuanling.

He showered it with praise, calling it a masterpiece unmatched in both heaven and earth.

Yu Qing was deeply moved to see Fang Zhou being so attentive to her work.

Fang Zhou did intend to help Yu Qing, but he had another reason—he wanted to spread Yu Qing’s ideas across the entire Heavenly Sword Sect.

If the women could all become admirers, even forgiving such things as infidelity, wouldn’t the men’s status be indirectly improved?

Fang Zhou genuinely put a lot of effort into seeking benefits for his fellow men.

Seeing that it was Fang Zhou’s recommendation and Yu Qing’s True Disciple-written novel, Wei Yuanling took it seriously right away. She respectfully accepted the manuscript and assured them that it would be published in the first issue of Heavenly Sword Daily without even needing to read it.

Haha, connections truly make things smoother. Those disciples who scratch their heads day and night, pondering over their drafts for submission, might cry out against the injustice if they knew about this.

Wei Yuanling, by doing this, essentially gave the two a favor, so the atmosphere became very amicable. Wei Yuanling asked Fang Zhou numerous questions about newspaper production, to which Fang Zhou answered truthfully.

However, Fang Zhou stumbled on the last question.

Wei Yuanling asked about the printing of the newspaper. The current paper and ink workshop uses woodblock printing, and it couldn’t possibly produce an issue every two days.

After receiving the assignment for newspaper production, Wei Yuanling immediately began pondering this issue. She had been studying the Treasure Atlas these past few days and found several magic treasures capable of copying newspapers, but none of those treasures were available at the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Even sending someone out to find them wouldn’t solve the immediate problem, so she focused her attention on Fang Zhou. Even if Fang Zhou hadn’t come to see her today, she would have sought him out anyway.

Even if Fang Zhou had backing, there couldn’t be many helpers; to produce a newspaper every two days, they must have some special magic treasure or technology.

Wei Yuanling hoped Fang Zhou would share this technology.

After hearing Wei Yuanling’s words, Fang Zhou fell silent.

Wei Yuanling anxiously waited for Fang Zhou’s answer, despite her smiling exterior. If Fang Zhou refused, she would have to find another way, which might not be feasible within the time frame.

Finally, Fang Zhou slowly said, "The secret to producing an issue every two days is not a magic treasure, but a new printing technology."

Wei Yuanling’s eyes lit up, and she eagerly asked, "What kind of technology is it?"

Fang Zhou chuckled, "It’s a technology I invented. Originally, I didn’t plan on sharing it, but to ensure the smooth publication of Yu Qing’s novel, I’ll provide it for free."

Yu Qing, hearing this, was greatly surprised and quickly said, "Taoist Fang, there’s no need to do this because of me..."

Fang Zhou raised his hand to interrupt Yu Qing, and sincerely said, "Yu Qing, you’ve helped me so much; it’s only right that I help you once. If you consider me a friend, don’t refuse."

Yu Qing was extremely touched, her eyes teary, with emotions brewing in her heart.

Seeing this, Wei Yuanling quickly expressed her gratitude to Fang Zhou, "Then, on behalf of Heavenly Sword Daily, I thank Taoist Fang for his generosity, and also thank Yu Qing. I’m really lucky this time."

She quickly confirmed the matter, lest Fang Zhou suddenly change his mind.

Fang Zhou smiled and said, "The information on this technology is quite extensive. I’ll organize it and send it to you when I return."

Wei Yuanling hurriedly said, "How could I trouble Taoist Fang to do that? Yuanling will follow you to retrieve it."

She was worried that Fang Zhou might not return, so she felt more assured going herself.

Fang Zhou nodded in agreement, without objection.

The three left the paper and ink workshop. Yu Qing had wanted to talk more with Fang Zhou, but with Wei Yuanling beside him, she refrained and bid farewell.

Fang Zhou took Wei Yuanling back to Moon Viewing Peak.

This was Wei Yuanling’s first time at Moon Viewing Peak. After looking around, she praised, "Indeed, a place where the land and the people are magnificent, capable of nurturing talents like Taoist Fang."

Anyway, flattery costs nothing, and Wei Yuanling kept praising endlessly.

Fang Zhou couldn’t help but laugh. He hadn’t been at Moon Viewing Peak for long; his extraordinary talent had nothing to do with the place.

Wei Yuanling had met Fang Zhou over a month ago; she seemed polite on the surface but dared to tease Fang Zhou privately, showing her mischievous side.

Now, she was very warm in her flattery, yet her behavior was respectful, clearly knowing Fang Zhou was difficult to deal with and that she needed something from him, hence didn’t dare to act out.

Simply put, she was a cunning opportunist.

Fang Zhou returned to his bamboo house and wrote the method of movable type printing on paper.

Wei Yuanling stared intensely at the paper in Fang Zhou’s hand; this was crucial for smoothly producing Heavenly Sword Daily.

However, Fang Zhou didn’t hurry to hand over the method of movable type printing; instead, he asked, "What is Manager Wei’s vision for the development of Heavenly Sword Daily?"

Wei Yuanling didn’t quite understand the meaning of "vision for development." After Fang Zhou’s explanation, she fell silent.

She actually had no particular ideas. Wangyue Daily was already doing well, covering the entire Heavenly Sword Sect and even having a market in Yunshan City.

If Heavenly Sword Daily could be as successful as Wangyue Daily, it was good enough. She had no further ideas, and even if she did, she didn’t know how to achieve them.

After hearing Wei Yuanling’s thoughts, Fang Zhou snorted, "Manager Wei, if you only follow Wangyue Daily’s old path, Heavenly Sword Daily will be nothing more than an insignificant entertainment tabloid."

Wei Yuanling quickly bowed to Fang Zhou, "Please teach me, Taoist Fang!"

Fang Zhou smiled faintly, "Teaching you is no problem, but I have a request. Soon, I will be releasing new works, not newspapers. When the time comes, I need your sect’s channels to help sell them."

This was Fang Zhou’s main purpose in seeing Wei Yuanling—finding a sales channel for his upcoming manga. In the future, he needed to turn Master Lao Shi Ji’s erotic literature into books and sell them together.

Selling manga and erotic literature in the entire Heavenly Sword Sect and Yunshan City was easy, but these places had limited markets. He wanted to sell them across the entire Cultivation World, which was Fang Zhou’s new goal.

But relying solely on himself or Lu Qiuling wouldn’t accomplish this.

So Fang Zhou thought of the Heavenly Sword Sect; with their connections and resources, opening up sales across the entire Cultivation World would be effortless.

The key was how Fang Zhou would leverage the Heavenly Sword Sect’s sales channels; currently, the sect was very wary of him.

Thus, Fang Zhou considered the idea of technology shares, guiding the sect towards a prosperous path while involving himself.

For now, he relied on the Heavenly Sword Sect. In the future, the sect would rely on him.
