Chapter 423
"However, later on, you can give feedback to our newsboys."
"If they are all sold out on the day, you can apply tomorrow, and the quantity will be increased as appropriate."
"Of course, the opposite is also true. If they can't be sold, they will naturally be reduced, and this part of the newspapers will be provided to those with good sales."
After hearing the newsboy's words.
Qu Yanxing's eyes lit up, "There is knowledge everywhere in this. The operator behind the scenes is very shrewd. This ensures that every household doesn't dare to ask for too much, allocating according to demand. Especially after the newspaper officially charges in the future. And by doing this, he can make all the merchants actively sell for them, reducing a large amount of labor expenditure, only needing to bear the production cost, and the efficiency has also improved too much."
He began to be curious.
Who was the operator behind the scenes who could think of this "Great Gan Daily"!
"Alright, then give me twenty copies first."
Seeing that there were only twenty copies, the tea house shopkeeper was a bit disappointed.
Although he felt it was a bit small.
He still wanted them all.
Selling them all would be equivalent to 100 wen.
One-tenth of a tael of silver.
This was really not a small amount.
You must know that Zhao Paner's tea shop was able to sell two or three hundred wen yesterday, which was already excellent.
And you must know that this did not deduct her personal salary, the cost of the tea itself, and other operating costs such as rent.
There wasn't much left in hand.
So the tea house shopkeeper was still very excited inside.
After he received the 20 newspapers.
"Shopkeeper Zhuge."
"Young Master Lin!"
The tea house shopkeeper, seeing that it was a regular customer, hurriedly responded with a full face of smiles.
Qu Yanxing said with a smile: "The usual."
The tea house shopkeeper immediately ordered the waiter to serve him his favorite Pu'er tea and so on.
And Qu Yanxing did not ask for a newspaper from the tea house shopkeeper.
Instead, he specially bought a copy from the newsboy who was about to leave.
Giving him a bit more money.
"May I ask, who is the owner of this newspaper?"
"Who our owner is, I can't say. I only know that our newspaper office's president, that is, the shopkeeper, is named Cheng Yu."
After receiving the money, the newsboy said happily.
Qu Yanxing frowned, he hadn't heard of him.
But hearing that this was only the shopkeeper.
That is, just a worker.
He didn't know who the owner behind the scenes was.
It seems quite mysterious.
Let's meet again when there is a chance.
He shook his head.
He held the newspaper.
Then found a familiar private seat.
Drinking tea while leisurely reading the newspaper.
At the beginning, he was also attracted by the news about Jia Hui, Song Liang, and the Spring and Autumn Dao!
"Good!"
"What a brave and resourceful great hero!"
The sound of an excited shout.
It wasn't from him.
Qu Yanxing took a look.
It was a guest at another table who was also reading the newspaper!
It seems.
The sales of this newspaper were quite good!
Just after it was released, many people were willing to spend five wen to buy it.
How should I put this price.
This amount of money for the ordinary bottom-level commoners.
Was not a small number.
They could afford it, but it was basically difficult to spend five wen every day to buy it.
One month was 150 wen, one year was 1800 wen.
They couldn't afford this price.
Unless the selling price could be lowered in the future.
Therefore.
Currently, only the "middle class" could afford to consume it.
Like a cup of Starbucks.
Can ordinary people afford it?
Of course, there is no problem drinking one or two cups a year.
But it is absolutely impossible to do it daily.
Only those white-collar workers who have money to show off can afford it.
It is estimated that the total selling price needs to be reduced to 1 wen per copy.
Before it can be affordable per capita.
"But that should be very difficult to achieve, I estimate that five wen can't even cover the cost of one copy of this newspaper, how long the boss can operate it is a problem."
Qu Yanxing frowned.
He didn't know that Jia Hui's cost was actually much less than what was on the market.
Actually, there was still a profit.
However, if other merchants thought there was profit to be made at such a price, it would basically be a definite loss!
Only by raising the price!
And once the price was raised, the number of people who could afford to buy it would inevitably be greatly reduced.
At that time, if no one read it, the loss would be even more miserable.

"But those who can read and read newspapers are indeed from families that are doing okay."
Because Qu Yanxing was a merchant, he subconsciously kept looking at things from a merchant's perspective.
After regaining his focus.
Looking at the newspaper again.
He had to admit that he had a very good impression of this Wushuang Marquis, and he was convinced and admired him very much.
"If there is a chance, I must see his face!"
Qu Yanxing, who was yearning in his heart, thought silently.
Then he continued to read.
Below was the current events section.
"A few days ago, a certain Marquis Prefecture, the Yuan family (pseudonym), came to propose marriage to the family of a certain speech official, the Shen family (pseudonym), the eldest daughter of the first wife. But the Marquis couple of the Yuan family did not come personally to propose, only sending the eldest son and his wife, which made the mother of the Shen family's eldest daughter, the main wife Wang, very dissatisfied. Later, it also caused the Shen family's (pseudonym) illegitimate son Changfeng, who was young and ignorant, to almost lose the betrothal geese when competing in pitch-pot with the guest Bai Ye. Fortunately, the illegitimate sixth daughter was proficient in pitch-pot, stepped forward, defeated Bai Ye, and preserved the betrothal gifts for her sister..." ===== CHAPTER 424 =====
