Chapter 418
But were gathered around looking at something.
"Sisters, what are you looking at?"
The curious Zhao Paner walked over to ask.
"Sister Paner, you're finally awake, we are looking at a newspaper!"
Hearing the previous words, Zhao Paner felt a bit shy: "Who told the husband to be so, so..."
She couldn't bring herself to say how.
But she was quickly distracted by the following words!
"What kind of paper is a newspaper?"
Rewinding time.
While Zhao Paner was still fast asleep.
Early in the morning.
In a workshop next to a newspaper office named the Wushuang Newspaper Office, the workers were working overtime, giving their all.
They had been in a similar situation since yesterday.
Ever since Cheng Yu spent money to buy it a few days ago.
They had experimented for a long time at first.
Constantly trial-and-error, producing different versions of the newspaper.
It wasn't until yesterday.
That they finally succeeded in their experiments and finalized the layout.
Then they started printing the newspapers continuously!
Through their efforts.
By five o'clock this morning!
Ten thousand copies of the newspaper, still smelling of ink, had been successfully printed.
"Supervisor Yuan, you must recruit more people, otherwise, if ten thousand copies come every day, our few people will be exhausted to death in a few days."
After finishing the work, the workers, covered in sweat, complained to a supervisor of the workshop.
Supervisor Yuan nodded: "I know, I will report this to President Cheng."
Then he hurried to find Cheng Yu, who had just arrived.
Cheng Yu had a bit of a headache.
He currently held an important position in the Ministry of War.
Now, the work at this newspaper office.
made him run back and forth a bit.
He decided to hold on for these few days.
Once it was on the right track, he would ask the Lord to resign.
And hire someone else to be in charge.
However, upon learning that the newspapers were all printed.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Cai Yong was doing fine, as the school hadn't officially opened yet.
Then the two of them took a look at the sample copy.
"What does Elder Cai think?"
"The first issue is very good, it can be sent immediately to major tea houses, restaurants, hmm, and brothels."
"Hmm, that is excellent!"
"Also, tell the newsboys, when selling on the street, they must shout loudly."
"This is a newspaper personally planned by the Lord, there must be no mistakes."
"Yes, President!"
Due to Jia Hui's guidance.
Cheng Yu had recruited one hundred children in the past few days, naming them newsboys.
They were in their early teens.
Some were homeless refugee orphans.
Some were children from poor families, trying to save money for their families and support themselves.
In short, they were all poor children.
Therefore, they were all hardworking and resilient.
These past few days.
Cheng Yu had provided them with two free meals a day.
Training them to sell newspapers.
In the future, there would be no free meals; they would have to sell newspapers to earn money themselves.
Manager Wang, who was in charge of the newsboys, exhorted them before they left: "Each of you immediately carry the newspapers and go to the streets to deliver them. Deliver them to tea houses, restaurants, taverns, brothels, and eateries. You must also shout and sell them to pedestrians on the street... 0 Fifty copies each, come back to collect your money after you finish!"
"Then deliver the next batch!"
"Remember, each of you has your own district."
"Divided into five groups: East, West, South, North, and Center, twenty people for each city. No one is allowed to cross boundaries. There will be special people watching your work progress. If discovered, your delivery qualification will be canceled."
"Is that clear?"
"Clear!"
The newsboys had been trained, and this task was not difficult.
So they all nodded in unison and agreed.
Immediately.
After the order was given.
They immediately carried the stacks of newspapers beside them on their backs.
Then they ran out one after another.
"Sell newspapers~ Sell newspapers~"
Because their respective areas were well-divided.
Twenty people per city.
Each person responsible for a few streets.
So there would be no confusion.
Soon they were jogging and shouting on the streets.
While holding up a copy of the newspaper in their hands and shaking it.
"The Great Gan's first newspaper, 'Great Gan Daily', the first issue is only five wen, buy it cheap."
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, the Great Dong Dynasty is invading our southern border again~"
"Shocking! Minister of War Song Liang is actually one of the four great envoys of the rebel group, the Spring and Autumn Dao!"
"Excellent articles have appeared in the world! ~"
At this time, the sky was just beginning to brighten, and more and more people were starting to hit the streets.
There were small merchants and peddlers opening shops.
There were officials going to court.
There were tourists entering the city.
Soldiers patrolling the streets, and so on.
Everyone was attracted by the commotion of these newsboys.
