Chapter 396 Rumor Has It that Changan Is Undervalued

Song De was happy and sold a lot, waiting for people who bought the newspaper to spread the word, and more people would definitely buy it.

Chang'an has a large population and more literate people than elsewhere.

Nine thousand copies a day are definitely not enough to sell, so if you only sell one copy you will lose nine cents, oh no.

He sold it at the entrance of the Imperial City, and word quickly spread inside the Imperial City.

Especially the words he shouted, some officials saw that it was almost noon and there was nothing going on, so they ran out to buy a copy.

Some bring two copies to their colleagues.

Someone from the political hall who was also waiting to eat came over to report.

"What are the messy men doing in the woods, what are the women doing, and how long does it last? Go, give Song De to me... buy one copy, buy me one copy."

After Yao Chong found out, he frowned, what exactly was written in the newspaper?

He wanted to arrest someone, but then he thought wrong. Song De recognized him when he saw him.

"No." Zhang Shuo called to the residents: "Count how many people are in the political hall. Each person has one share."

"Yes, both." Lu Huaishen followed.

The messenger called another person and ran out together.

After returning, the two of them suppressed their laughter, handed over the newspapers and stood waiting at the door.

Yao Chong took one as if he was snatching it, and he knew it was from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms just by looking at it.

He read the calligraphy and found that it was Zhong Shaojing's calligraphy and the regular script was good.

Looking at the paper again, the paper is good, better than the paper we use now.

Nowadays, straw paper, that is, raw edge paper, and hemp paper are used for papering windows, lanterns, and writing.

The best is paper made from a mixture of bark and grass sent from Jiangnan Province, among which Xuanzhou paper is the best.

However, the newspaper paper is different from the paper used for calligraphy and painting in Jiangnan Province. Ink sticks better, but it is not suitable for painting.

This ink... is better than the ink used for engraving and printing. The paper and ink produced by Lijiazhuangzi are as good as they should be.

After reading these contents, from beginning to end, I didn’t see what I heard.

"This Song De actually told lies." Yao Chong shook his head.

"Yao Xiang, it's true. It's written all over. The three men are sworn brothers in Taoyuan, and then..." The newspaper buyer responded from the door.

Yao Chong heard this: "..."

He felt bad all over and was short of breath.

"Ahahaha~~" Zhang said and laughed again.

Lu Huaishen shook his head helplessly.

Yao Chong took a few breaths and finally recovered. He gritted his teeth and said, "It must be Li Yi. How could anyone else think of such...such...ah!"

He couldn't find the words.

Lu Huaishen looked at the contents of the newspaper: "Here are some life tips. It is said that there is scale on the utensils, and it is easier to remove it by scrubbing with vinegar.

The hand towels you use have a smell, and the smell is still there soon after washing. You can put it in a pot to steam it, and it will be much better when you take it out.

If you want to eat leftover food in the summer the next day, you have to reheat it, otherwise it won’t last the next day.

If you accidentally get a cut on your body, you can wash it with light salt water. You can endure the pain but it will heal faster. "

"This newspaper doesn't cost three yuan. I believe what Manager Song said is the truth, twelve yuan." Zhang said, commenting on the price of the newspaper.

Yao Chong calmed down and felt that the newspaper was indeed good. It had stories, publicity about the locust plague, prevention of heatstroke, and tips.

He thought for a while and shook his head: "No, can newspapers benefit the people? The people he helped before were all people whose families had little money.

Today's newspapers can only be understood by scholars. Ordinary people buy them for no use. If they buy them for three yuan, can they still be sold for four yuan?

What's the use of continuing to make money-losing transactions? Use your own money to subsidize scholars? "

"If he has money, we won't worry about it." Lu Huaishen still looked like a good old man.

"There must be a problem." Yao Chong was determined.

Li Longji in the palace was reading a newspaper in his hand, nodding his head from time to time, "This thing is good."

I have been waiting for it and finally it came out.

"Okay, it doesn't matter if the people are illiterate. Those who are literate are willing to show off, and there will be people in wine shops and teahouses who will read to them." Li Longji said and looked at Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi cooperated: "What your Majesty said is absolutely true. Just ask people from the government office to tell the people, but the people don't really believe it.

If you change it to a newspaper and everyone reads it and talks about it together, people will be willing to try it and talk about it with people they know.

It’s just that what the newspaper says is right and the people believe it is right, but what it says is wrong and the people believe it is wrong.

For example, if the newspaper says that the price of millet will rise, and the place where millet is produced is severely affected, the price of millet in Chang'an City will change. "

Gao Lishi saw the power of newspapers. The first issue just came out and it was nothing.

When the people gradually get used to what is said above being true, and suddenly a falsehood is mixed in, the city of Chang'an will be in turmoil.

"Yeah! So no one else is allowed to apply for the newspaper. Only Li Yi can do it. I can't trust others." Li Longji said with a smile.

"No one else can make such paper and ink. It takes a lot of effort to print it with woodblock printing. It only takes several days to produce it."

Gao Lishi talked about the technical advantages of Lijiazhuangzi.

Li Longji waved his hand: "The secret of paper cannot be kept. Li Yi never thought of keeping it a secret. He wanted to spread the new method after the cost came down.

The bark paper in Jiangnan was too expensive, even hemp paper could not be used by ordinary people, and it was inconvenient to write on straw paper.

Lijiazhuangzi's paper is not as good as Jiangnan leather paper for writing, but it can be cheaper. "

Li Longji thought of Li Yi saying that there was an ore in Lantian County that was suitable for adding to papermaking.

In the past, Zhuangzi had people dig and transport it from elsewhere, and the output was small.

As soon as the mines in Lantian County were dug, they were transported along the Ba River to Lijiazhuangzi's workshop.

The cost has also dropped, but I don’t know how low the price can be.

Li Longji decided to ask questions in the evening, continue to review the memorials, and wait for the food to be delivered before resting.

Song De sold many more at the south gate of the imperial city, and they were all bought by officials.

When it was time to eat, more and more officials came out to buy newspapers.

People from the harem also came over to buy. In less than twelve and a half, all nine thousand newspapers were sold.

"Let's go back to Zhuangzi, go back to eat, and tell the proprietor the good news first."

Song De said hello, everyone got in the car and hurried back.

If they are not in a hurry to report the news, they can go to heaven and earth to eat.

People who had already bought newspapers went around to show off, just in time for dinner.

In each dining area, they sat and read newspapers, some on the table, some with their hands spread out.

Others are curious, UU reads www. uukanｓhuｕ.net What?

If you ask me about it, people who buy newspapers will have something to say.

Others ask you to read it, so read it. Reading it can prove that you are literate and that you are a scholar.

Within one meal, the whole of Chang'an became aware of a new thing: newspapers.

Newspapers tell stories and can be used in daily life, introducing the situation of the locust plague.

The main thing is that the locust plague can be stabilized and there will be no food problems.

Plus what are the signs of heatstroke and how to deal with them.

If you don’t have to force others to do it, you can’t remember stories, you can’t understand what you say, it’s not as good as other things.

Influenced by Li Yi, newly emerging storytellers valued the above story.

Some of them have the means to get copies of Romance of the Three Kingdoms several times before.

I have no choice but to look at others and say it, so I can only act anxiously.

Well now, buy a copy and read it, then tell others about it in your own words and make money.

Don't look at the few words in the chapter above. Make up your own and say that the last ten days are short.

They started to buy newspapers from other people, and newspapers cost three yuan. By nightfall, they had someone buy them for fifty yuan.
