At that moment, someone couldn't help but asked: "After reading this newspaper today, when will the next edition be released?"
"Such an interesting newspaper, I still want to hear it!"
Upon hearing this, everyone also agreed.
"When will the next newspaper be released? I can't wait!"
"Who said this newspaper is boring to read? I think this newspaper is as exciting as a storyteller."
Hearing this, the young man standing on the stage received the newspaper with a smile and said to everyone: "Your Majesty said that from now on, this newspaper will be published once a week."
"Once the newspaper is published, Hu's Tea House will organize people to read the newspaper as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, as long as you come to Hu's Teahouse often, I guarantee you will hear this newspaper as soon as possible!"
This weekly time was also negotiated between Hu Changan and everyone in the Ministry of Rites.
Originally, Hu Changan wanted to publish the newspaper once a day.
However, this suggestion was quickly rejected by everyone in the Ministry of Rites.
The reason is simply that there is not much content to write in newspapers.
After all, in ancient times, the transmission of messages was really slow.
In ancient times, there was no Internet like in later generations. Any message could be sent to all directions with just a cell phone.
In ancient times, news could only be spread by word of mouth.
This will invisibly reduce the amount of information.
After all, only really big things will be qualified to be reported to Yingtian City.
So, this new thing doesn’t happen every day.
Sometimes I even have to wait ten days and a half for a new and interesting thing to appear.
Besides, if a newspaper is published every day, the manpower and material resources required are really not a small amount.
At present, wooden movable type printing has not yet been fully promoted in the printing room of the Ministry of Rites.
Even if the Ministry of Rites could compile a newspaper every day, the workers in the printing room would not have the skills to print it out.
Therefore, Hu Changan could only settle for the next best thing and set the publication time of the newspaper as once a week.
However, despite this, everyone was still very satisfied.
You must know that in ancient times, entertainment was very poor.
Being able to listen to the newspaper once a week is already pretty good.
Hearing this, Qiangzi also took a sip of tea and secretly made up his mind.
At this time next week, he must come to Hu's Tea House early to listen to the newspaper!
Soon, a week flew by.
On this day, Qiangzi was very happy.
Because today is the day when the second issue of the newspaper is released.
He can finally read the second issue of the newspaper!
On this day, Qiangzi finished his day's work early and rushed to Hu's Tea House.
He must listen to this newspaper as soon as possible!
However, Qiangzi had just walked halfway when he saw a circle of people surrounding the roadside.
Qiangzi couldn't help but be a little curious.
What on earth are you doing? Why are so many people suddenly surrounding you?
But Hadron was not prepared to stop there.
He also wants to go to Hu's Tea House to listen to the newspaper!
However, just after Hadron had taken a few steps, there was a shout from the crowd: "Read the newspaper, read the newspaper, read the newspaper for free."
“Everyone who is passing by should come and take a look!”
Qiangzi's footsteps couldn't help but pause.
Can you hear newspapers on the street?
Without any time to think, Qiangzi quickly squeezed into the crowd.
Sure enough, in the crowd, stood a young man wearing shorts.
On the wall next to the boy, there was a newspaper clearly posted.
This young man is also one of the sales teams specially trained by Hu Changan.
Naturally, no one under Hu Changan's command is illiterate.
At this moment, these sales guys temporarily acted as newspaper readers.
Looking at the gathered crowd, the young man smiled broadly and said, "Good afternoon, fellow villagers."
"Today the newspaper finally comes out with its second issue!"
"Next, let me read today's newspaper for everyone!"
As he said that, the young man turned his attention to the newspaper posted on the wall and began to read it in a measured tone.
Seeing this, Qiangzi couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
This young man's newspaper reading skills are definitely not inferior to those of the previous newspaper readers in Hu's Teahouse.
Qiangzi never expected that this magical newspaper could be heard on the street.
Qiangzi's love for this newspaper couldn't help but deepen.
In this way, this thing called a newspaper quietly spread in Yingtian City.
The weekly newspaper has suddenly added a lot of fun to people's lives.
Originally they could only hear these interesting stories from the squire's mouth, but now they can get happiness directly from the newspapers!
What's more, the interesting stories in the newspaper are much more interesting than what the squire said!
This is indeed the case.
After all, this newspaper was compiled by the most famous storyteller in Yingtian City!
Everyone racked their brains to come up with every joke.
This is definitely much more interesting than any story made up by a random squire.
More importantly, this newspaper is not expensive.
As long as you spend 50 copper coins, you can buy a newspaper from Hu's grocery store.
At this price, it is absolutely cheap.
If you had to buy it outside, it would probably cost more than 40 cents just for that much rice paper.
The rice paper on which things are printed only costs 50 copper coins, which is definitely very cheap.
This price was naturally set by Hu Changan.
Hu Changan published newspapers mainly to control public opinion.
Therefore, the selling price of this newspaper is naturally as low as possible.
Only low prices can attract more people to buy.
For this price, the etiquette department even added a little extra money.
It was Hu Changan who was so persuasive that he explained the pros and cons to everyone in the Ministry of Rites, so the Ministry of Rites reluctantly allocated a sum of money specifically to support Hu Changan's newspaper.
Therefore, the 50 articles quoted by Hu Changan can definitely be regarded as the cost price among the cost prices.
The price of 50 yuan per serving is definitely a price that most people in Yingtian City can afford.
If you are literate, you can buy it and read it yourself.
If you are illiterate, you can also buy it and let others read it to you.
Even if you buy it and use it as window paper, it is definitely a bargain!
Therefore, the sales volume of this newspaper in Yingtian City has been rising steadily.
No matter how many newspapers the Ministry of Rites prints, they are always sold out within three days.
Not only that, now the major teahouses in Yingtian City have also launched newspaper reading services.
No matter which teahouse you go to, you can hear the storyteller reading the newspaper in a melodious tone.
After all, everyone wants to make money.
Everyone else reads newspapers, but you don’t, so how can you attract customers?
Nowadays, newspapers have entered thousands of households in Yingtian City.
Almost everyone has learned about newspapers from various channels.
If you haven't read the newspaper, you will be laughed at by everyone!
