It has been a month and a half since the first newspaper was released.

The earth gradually began to feel like spring. The warm spring breeze replaced the howling north wind, and new green appeared in a chilly field.

According to the "half-monthly" schedule, today is the day when the fourth copy of "Mirror" is released. Early in the morning, the roadsides of several main roads in Ruidu are full of people, and everyone is looking forward to it.

, hoping to grab a newspaper.

"There are just too many people..."

Geng San was one of the people who "robbed newspapers". He arrived early in the morning, but when he saw more and more people, he who looked like a bean sprout began to worry: If he didn't grab the newspaper, he would go home.

I can't deal with my wife anymore!

The number of people on the street now is only a little less than during the festival. Seeing many tall and thick people squeezing forward, Geng Sanyi gritted his teeth and took advantage of his short stature to get through a few gaps, which made him feel uncomfortable.

His position moved forward a little.

Just when everyone was getting impatient, someone shouted: "The newspaper delivery guy is here!"

The crowd cheered and swarmed in one direction. Some people were in a daze and didn't react. As a result, they were left behind by a large number of people. When everyone ran away in a swarm, there were still a few left on the ground.

Shoes, I don’t know whose shoes were stepped on.

The handsome young man pushing the cart shouted loudly: "Don't be anxious, everyone, take your time and line up!"

There were too many people, and his voice was quickly lost in the noisy shouts. Countless hands stretched out in front of him. In many concerts in later generations, singers would interact with fans at close range. That scene was different from this one.

I'm afraid there is a gap in comparison.

However, the people standing in the front row still noticed the difference between this moment and the past. Today's trolley contained a strange pot-like object with a locked lid; in the past, there was only a big bag there, and as long as

You can take out the newspaper just by reaching out.

The young man pushing the cart calmly shouted: "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me!"

The scene was still chaotic, but this time the people around him finally heard what he was saying.

The young man smiled and said, "Thank you for your consideration! I was very touched when I saw so many people wanting to take a look. I also hate myself for why I only brought four hundred copies! Xiao thanked everyone in advance!"

After that, he smiled and bowed in all directions. Although many people didn't know what he was talking about, they cheered loudly when they saw him saluting.

Xiao Jing, the president and editor-in-chief, was already very depressed when he was treated as a newspaper deliverer. Being coaxed by others like this, he felt like he had become a show-off again.

However, business is important. He couldn't laugh or cry, but he cheered up and said: "There is something I want to tell everyone. It is different from the previous three times. From this time, the Mirror will no longer give away free copies, but will sell them for five cents."

One serving!”

What?

Even shouting a thousand times at the top of your lungs is not as effective as saying "charge". Xiao Jing's words were carried to the back by the people in the front row, and soon the crowd turned from noisy boiling water back to waveless well water.

"This thief has done a good job, but he still wants to sell a few pieces of paper for five cents? Bah!"

Someone cursed loudly, glared at Xiao Jing fiercely, and walked away.

"Although the newspaper is nice and useful, if you have to spend money to buy it...hey, I'd better not read it. At worst, I can just find someone to borrow it."

Although some people really wanted to read the newspaper, they were unwilling to pay for it, and in the end they could only walk away with little interest and a small calculation.

Xiao Jing smiled from beginning to end. He had already expected such a situation. The only thing he was wrong about was that there were fewer people walking away than he expected. Well, it was only one-tenth less, right?

A few small newspapers condense the labor of many people. Even if you don't expect to make money by selling newspapers, you must let them reflect their due value.

In this era, people have attached great importance to the power of knowledge, but most of their opinions are focused on the level of "books have their own golden houses"; what the Mirror has to do is to tell them that in addition to those books that can make you enter the official career

, there are also some words that can produce value and please the body and mind!

Among the people who stayed, there were still 20 to 30% hesitant. However, they soon realized their mistake: more and more people crowded in from behind, and they who were still stunned were naturally squeezed out of the crowd.

Xiao Jing's circle.

"I want a newspaper, give me one!"

Before the scene became noisy again, a loud voice startled everyone. A thin man rushed to Xiao Jing with excitement on his face and stretched out his trembling hand, holding five coins in his hand.

money.

I don’t remember finding day care?

This man's attitude was too positive, and his eyes were as eager as a pilgrim, which made Xiao Jing a little confused.

Seeing that Xiao Jing didn't respond, he added: "I'm Geng San. I have read the first three issues of the newspaper. I followed what was said in it and made a little money. Originally, my life was very boring, but since I got the mirror

Newspaper, I have more to think about. By the way, the 'Winter Criminal Cases Compilation Commentary' in the last issue is very good. It reads like a storybook. I will take it out and read it as soon as I have time..."

Geng San talked endlessly about his reading experience. Not only Xiao Jing, but also the people next to him were dumbfounded.

Xiao Jing was stunned for a cup of tea before he came back to his senses. What does it mean to be a die-hard fan? This is it! He worked hard to create the newspaper and only published three issues, but he has already cultivated the first batch of loyal readers!

Thinking of this, Xiao Jing hurriedly said: "Brother Geng, thank you! Our newspaper has just started, and your support is a timely blessing for us. From now on, the Mirror will continue to publish, and we will try not to let everyone

I’ve been waiting for half a month to give back to readers better!”

With that said, he opened the lock and took out a newspaper, and solemnly handed it to Geng San with both hands: "In the future, please continue to support the Mirror!"

"Definitely!" Geng San, who took the newspaper, was overjoyed and wanted to say something, but was pushed to the back by the surging crowd.

"I want all the newspapers you have!" A short and thick man slapped a silver coin in front of Xiao Jing without saying a word: "It's only a few hundred copies. This is more than three taels of silver. That's enough."

Bar!"

People nearby looked at him immediately. Based on the calculation of one tael of silver exchanged for 1,400 coins, it only takes more than one tael of silver to buy Xiao Jing's newspapers. Now, someone has offered nearly three times the price.

, I definitely can’t buy it myself, right?

After all, who can have trouble with money?
