Things From Another World

84. Chapter 84 Chapter Datang Daily

In fact, the output of a lot of cheap paper not only solves Dunn’s long-suffering toilet paper problem, but more importantly, he has a mouthpiece that can grasp the public opinion.

That’s right, it’s the newspaper.

He has already made a simple printing press, and now there are a lot of cheap paper available, so the launch of the newspaper is taken for granted.

In this Prandal, which was controlled by the apocalypse, the life of ordinary people is still in the feudal period, all the news is in a state of serious lag, often what news happens in one place, and another place may take a month or so. Will know the news.

Of course, this only refers to ordinary news. If it is a very important news, it will use the magic communication method, and it can be transmitted to the end of the mainland in the blink of an eye. Unfortunately, this method is extremely costly and general. The message will not use this method at all.

In this environment, the introduction of newspapers is one of the best ways to grasp the public opinion in the territory. Dunn can learn the politicians on the earth and let the people see what he wants them to see to guide public opinion and consolidate him. The rule here.

Originally, Dunn also wanted to discuss with Fiona about who is responsible for the newspaper, but seeing her just like that, it is estimated that it will only be self-disciplined when she goes to find her. Dunn simply decided to make the first edition of the newspaper.

As for the people who sell newspapers, the teenagers who have a lot of energy and nowhere to vent all the time have a job, and no one here will tell him to hire child labor…[e1]

As a result, the residents of Ellington suddenly found a strange thing. These days, the children who usually run around the streets suddenly become very strange. They run across the street to inquire about some strange things and go home at night. I was also mysterious and my face was full of excitement, as if I had encountered something very exciting…

The adults asked them not to say, just a smirk, so that everyone is very strange.

And this answer was answered after three days.

“Sell the newspaper! Sell the newspaper! Freshly released Datang Daily!”

“Why is the one-eyed buck dead on the streets? Why are hundreds of beasts screaming in the middle of the night? Why are the soaps in the shops repeatedly black-handed? Why are the maiden clothes of the lord’s house collectively missing?? The old widow’s door was knocked on the night and night. Man is the undead? What is hidden behind the death of the former lord Hogg?? Is this all the distortion of humanity or the demise of morality? If you want to know the answer, please pay attention to Datang Daily!”

On the street in Ellington, a little boy squats and squats while squatting, and his mouth is more attractive to the sides of the road.

“Isn’t this Witt? Why didn’t you play with the little guys today? What newspapers did you sell?”

Witte grinned: “Uncle Leonard, do you want to come to a Datang Daily? There are a lot of interesting news on this.”

Uncle Leonard of Witt is literate and should be a good client.

“Datang Daily?”

Leonard asked curiously: “What is that? What is the news?”

“Datang Daily is a newspaper of the Datang newspaper hairstyle established by the lord of the lord. There are a lot of interesting news on it. These recent interesting news is news. How are you interested in buying one? It is very cheap, as long as A silver coin.”

“A silver coin!? Good boy, this newspaper is worthy of my sale of ten good candles!”

“You can’t say that,” Witt retorted Leonard with an uncharacteristic fangs. “The candle can only be illuminated at night, but this newspaper can let you know the latest news of Ellington, which even publishes the lord. The latest laws and regulations of adults, as well as a variety of job information, are invaluable, not to mention the newspapers are made of paper! Usually you need ten silver coins to buy a piece of paper, now only a lot of paper Silver coins, even if you can continue to use them after reading, do you think it is really expensive?”

Leonard didn’t really want to buy it, but listening to Witt said that it feels very reasonable. Usually, a piece of paper is so expensive. These newspapers are several pieces, and it is a silver coin to add up. It is too cost-effective!

“Yes, then give me a newspaper!”

There is a candle shop in Leonard, which is relatively wealthy in Ellington. It is not a big deal to buy a silver coin to buy a newspaper.

A few people next to see Leonard buy a newspaper and immediately came together: “Hey! Reinard boss, what did the newspaper say?”

Leonard enjoyed this eye-catching feeling and opened the newspaper and read it aloud.

“Today’s headline news, Datang Steelmaking Plant is just around the corner, and new jobs are waiting for nothing. According to the lord Dunn, the Datang Steelmaking Plant is under construction and will be completed in a few days. The steelworks are newly established and require a large number of staff. Therefore, the invitation to the entire territory of Ellington, as long as the ability, ideas, and intentional men between the ages of 16 and 50, can go to the recruitment office outside the lord’s office to sign up for recruitment, once the training is successful On-the-job, the minimum salary is 10 gold coins per month! In addition -“

The headline news has just been read here, and there is a sigh of relief around.

“This steel mill is treated so well!?”

“Ten gold coins started! I also signed up when the lord of the lord recruited craftsmen, but I only enrolled 13 girls. I thought the lord was eccentric and only gave girls a chance. I didn’t expect that we have a chance now. It!”

“God! I must try it!”

“Leonard boss! Keep reading!? What else!?”

Leonard saw everyone staring at him anxiously, coughing smugly and continuing to read another piece of news.

“According to this newspaper survey, the farmer subsidy program promoted by the former lord adults has been well received. The farmers in the villages around Ellington have generally gained real benefits. The ironware tools have greatly accelerated the efficiency of their work, allowing them to have more time. Accompanied by family to enjoy life, and even spared the opportunity to participate in the construction of Ellington to earn a second bucket of gold…”

“The caravans formed by the Datang Chamber of Commerce have already brought our specialty products such as mints and soaps to the city of Bayin. We plan to open a store in Bayin and establish a trade route to bring more rich products to Ellington. And business opportunities…”

“One-eyed Buck and his men died on the streets, because Miss Fiona used a precious fourth-order magic scroll, and this magic scroll is worth…”

“The newspaper’s exclusive news, according to Miss Tina, who did not want to be named, broke the news. Recently, there was a heartbreaking incident in the lord’s house. The clothes of the maids in the lord’s house were all poisoned. Among them, all kinds of clues point the suspect to the lord… …”

“what!?”

“impossible!?”

“how come!?”

When the news of the gossip came out, it immediately ignited the enthusiasm of everyone, and all of them widened their eyes and watched Leonard continue to read.

“Cough, everyone wait for me to take a break, then read slowly.”

Leonard felt so refreshed, deliberately caught their appetite and wanted to continue to enjoy the feeling of being noticed for a while.

When Wit saw it, his eyes turned and shouted: “The news that everyone wants to know is available in the Datang Daily. If you buy one, you can watch it slowly without squeezing it together!”

After listening to Witt, everyone shouted, and they ran to him to buy newspapers. When Leonard woke up, he found that everyone had already bought the newspaper and had to look at it himself.

“What!? Sold out!?”

There were a few slow movements that didn’t buy a newspaper, and I was in a hurry.

“Don’t worry! I don’t have it here, Marshall, maybe they still have it!”

Witt shouted: “Our Ellington tabloid boy starts today and will bring you a daily Datang Daily! For a limited number of purchases, please!”

After shouting, Witt slipped.

Because it was the first issue of the newspaper, Dunn did not print much because of the habits of everyone, but after getting the report from Witt in the evening, Dunn discovered that he underestimated the acceptance of the residents of Ellington.

The thousand newspapers printed on the first day were all sold out!

This greatly exceeded Dunn’s expectations. In fact, when he printed the newspaper, he thought of a very important thing.

That is, newspapers use words as the main content carrier, and I believe that people who are literate in Ellington are not that much.

It seems that Ellington’s literacy rate is not too low.

However, considering the popularity of the text, Dunn thought for a moment and decided to start with the second issue of the newspaper, specifically to open a literacy column to teach you literacy and how to read the newspaper.

This will not only promote the policy control public opinion, but also popularize the text, so that the average cultural level of Ellington can be improved.

“It’s very good, these are your wages today.”

Let Witt sell their newspapers. One person’s salary is ten silver coins a day, and a thousand newspapers are one hundred gold coins. After deducting the cost of the paper mill, the profits are amazing – but Dunn can’t see this profit at all. What cares is to control public opinion and increase the efficiency of message dissemination.

After they got the silver coins, they left happily. They sold newspapers to make money faster than the mints. They sold three gold coins in a month’s newspaper. This was simply unimaginable. A huge sum!

Fiona looked amazed: “Newspaper, this is the way you think of it!?”

“How’s the effect?”

“Great! Just over 50 people have come to work for steel mills! Now it’s a headache to screen them.”

“Give me this, remember, now our workers are not too much!”

Steel mills are the most important, and people are more efficient. Dunn certainly doesn’t mind hiring a few more people.

But at the same time, he still needs to find other people to take charge of the operation of Datang Daily. As a lord, of course, he can’t stay there all day. When the newspaper editors write gossip news…
