Chapter 1173: Submission
Mu Yangling said nonchalantly, "I didn’t start the newspaper with the aim of earning money anyway. As long as Big Brother doesn’t want me to also hand over the glass factory and watch factory to the country, it’s fine."
"This is not a matter of money, but reputation. Ah Ling, don’t you know that The Great Qi Times can boost your reputation?"
"That doesn’t bother me in the least." Mu Yangling said confidently, "Just based on the Harvest Grain Stores, I’m already the most likeable person in Great Qi. Why would I need the newspaper office to further boost my reputation?"
Mu Yangling recalled that every time she went out shopping now, there would always be people kowtowing to her from afar. She couldn’t help but sigh sadly. "Actually, it’s not a good thing to have too much prestige!"
"..." Qi Haoran could only nod to show that she was right.
"So you don’t mind handing over the newspaper office?" Qi Haoran stared at his wife and asked.
Mu Yangling nodded readily. "My original intention is to let the people of the world know the affairs of the country and not be deceived by the local officials. I want them to be educated in etiquette, morality, and shame. I want them to know right and wrong. I also want them to understand the law and be aware of how to protect their rights. Therefore, it doesn’t matter who owns the newspaper office. What’s important is whether this newspaper office continues to do well. If you have a good idea, I’ll naturally heed your suggestion."
Qi Haoran felt that the desire-less Ah Ling was so cute. Pulling her into his embrace, he said, "Ah Ling, you’re the best!"
Not everyone could resist the temptation of fame and fortune. The Great Qi Times gave the owner a reputation that was not inferior to the accumulation of a lifetime of scholars’ achievement, but Ah Ling was willing to give that all up just like that.
Qi Haoran hugged her and said, "Ah Ling, when I’m with you, I also feel that I’m much more noble."
