Chapter 885 Novel!
At this time, in Xuchang City.
Cao Cao has been in Xuchang City for about a month.
Today I had a whim and planned to leave the palace and visit Xuchang City.
As soon as I went out, I heard the crisp voice of the newsboy:
"Sell newspapers!"
"Yesterday's big event: Hanzhong's fertile fields had a good harvest, and the corn yield was higher than potatoes!"
"There was a flood in Xiangyang, and everyone was united. The brave soldiers of the Wei Dynasty went to rescue the disaster!"
"His Majesty has announced new policies, which are related to people's livelihood!"
"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers!"
…
Hearing the child's voice, Cao Cao couldn't help but retreat.
Good guy!
The new policy I just released yesterday was published in the newspaper today!
But this is fine, the release of this new policy is to let the people know about it.
This kind of propaganda work is really convenient for Da Wei.
"Hey, I'm selling newspapers, give me one!"
At this time, a fruit vendor wiped his hands and said with a smile.
The little newsboy came over immediately:
"One newspaper and one copper!"
The peddler took out the money from his pocket with a smile, giving the money in one hand and taking the newspaper in the other.
This copper plate is not expensive for dignitaries, but for small traders, it is still a bit expensive.
After all, a bushel of grain these days can only be sold for two copper coins, and better grain will sell for about three coins.
However, these small traders naturally have their own ideas.
These newspapers were all purchased by raising funds.
For example, you buy it today, I buy it tomorrow, and he buys it the day after tomorrow.
What should I do after buying this newspaper?
You can also show it to others!
Don’t know what to do? You can watch it with several people, and then find someone who is literate to read it.
Everyone can get the news through the newspapers they raised money to buy.
This means that a copper plate is really not expensive for ordinary people.
This incident happened to be seen clearly by Cao Cao.
Cao Cao couldn't help but smile and said to Xu Chu beside him:
"Zhongkang, look at it, this is the wisdom of the people!"
"What should I do if I don't have money? There are many ways, hahahaha!"
The workers who print newspapers today are really good at their craftsmanship.
To be honest, since Bai Feng created a lot of weird things, the level of these craftsmen has also increased rapidly.
Now, even if printing is actually quite difficult, it is not a problem for craftsmen like them who have also made muskets.
After simple learning, you can start it directly, and you can do it quickly and well, and you are very comfortable.
Although newspapers are indeed very new, the people are very quick to adapt to them.
After all, such a convenient thing is easy to accommodate.
The contents of this newspaper were collected uniformly by the localities under each county and city, and then the most important ones were selected.
In the end, they were all concentrated in Hanzhong, and then a department was set up in Hanzhong to filter the essence of the news again and deliver it to printing plants in all states and counties.
Printing is finally completed.
Although this seems very slow, there is no electronic communication after all.
But in fact, now that the Dawei Highway has been completed, this kind of work can be completed quickly within one day.
Moreover, multiple counties and cities are operating, and the entire Hanzhong is just a base for sending and receiving information.
Moreover, this newspaper not only has one copy, but also contains Bai Feng's "private goods".
For example, if Bai Feng wants to purchase something from Quan Da Wei, he can print it directly in a business journal.
When the time comes, merchants will come to Hanzhong and sell things to Bai Feng.
In the same way, other cities can do the same.
It's just good, Hanzhong is still the main one.
After all, only Hanzhong is now strongly encouraging the development of business.
Although other cities have followed suit, they certainly cannot reach the height of Hanzhong, and there are not many in number.
Most people still dislike businessmen.
But this won't last long.
As long as there is time to change, it will soon develop to the entire Wei Dynasty and become a popular trend.
What's more, this newspaper is the best way to control the fishing boat.
Some people spread rumors about what happened to His Majesty. What should I do?
The newspaper is updated every day. Where did His Majesty go on inspection yesterday? Or did he promulgate a new policy? Are you cheating me?
Some people said, "Some disaster happened somewhere, it's over!"
fart! I have read the newspaper. If there is a disaster, will it not be written in the newspaper?
What's more, after the publication of this national newspaper, Bai Feng created a local newspaper.
It started as a local newspaper for each state and county, which wrote about what happened in each state and county, plus some very important information about other states and counties.
It won't be long before city-level small newspapers can be launched again.
The money for printing newspapers did not come from Dawei.
Businessmen have a very keen sense of smell, and many with quick eyesight and quick hands took the job directly.
Except for the national Dawei newspaper, other local newspapers were taken over by different businessmen.
All you need to do is pay taxes, and there will be plenty of money.
In fact, not only business but also state affairs, newspapers can be divided into more types.
For example, in the knowledge category, you can learn knowledge by reading newspapers.
There are also medical, agricultural, etc.
Those who can understand these things will naturally study them carefully.
People who don’t understand will buy some if they have spare money.
This trend soon spread throughout the Wei Dynasty.
Newspapers, in just a few months, became the most popular thing in the Wei Dynasty.
No one would be embarrassed to go out without a few newspapers.
When accumulated, this thing costs a lot of money.
If you have hundreds of bundles of newspapers at home, this thing is a symbol of wealth!
There are even some businessmen who are collectors and will buy every issue of any newspaper.
Even those from other states and counties are not spared and even charge high prices.
Just for collection.
Newspapers don't go bad. As long as they are kept properly, they can be read in a few years.
They are fully qualified to store these newspapers carefully.
And Bai Feng also took the opportunity to make some private goods.
In a small space at the back of the Dawei newspaper, Bai Feng created a column for novels.
This first novel is Tian Long Ba Bu.
There are always people who like to see this stuff.
With the popularization of knowledge and the establishment of schools, many people have learned about writing, and reading these novels is naturally a piece of cake.
Bai Feng just wanted to do an experiment.
This kind of thing, which will be popular all over the country in later generations, will it be popular if it is placed here in Wei Dynasty?
However, the feedback Bai Feng received was extremely shocking.
The people of Wei are crazy!
"Who is this person named Anonymous? He is so talented!"
"Duan Yu must be a handsome and handsome man!"
"I actually like Murong Bo. I'm happy to have a grudge!"
This is good. If Bai Feng hadn't used an anonymous name as his pen name, I'm afraid there wouldn't be many enthusiastic fans who would come to Hanzhong to urge the update.
