"Look, here are some explanations of the sages by the contemporary great scholar Zheng Fuzi!"
"Yes, we usually need to carefully read through different versions of books for comparison, but now this newspaper has directly marked it for us. This is simply getting twice the result with half the effort!"
"Hey, did you read the story written in the newspaper recently about the poor scholar who accidentally met a rich girl and was eventually named to the gold medal list? This is really good!"
In addition to these common people and scholars, more and more people are interested in this newspaper, and some people even buy these newspapers specifically to learn the characters.
Suddenly, the newspaper had just been launched for a few days, and it directly detonated the entire Zhao County. Every time the newspaper was printed, it was sold out.
When Chen Rou saw how much she earned every day, she immediately felt satisfied.
It seems that they are not useless in business, and since they now use movable type printing and save the labor of engraving workers, the cost price of this newspaper is not even a penny.
Even if you only sell it for two cents, and then go out to pay for the newsboys, you can make a net profit of more than ten taels of silver every day!
Don't underestimate these ten taels of silver. This has already made the two sisters Chen Rou and Chen Man very satisfied.
You know, this is just a small Zhao County. If they promote this newspaper to all cities and towns, or even to more places, the money they make will increase exponentially!
"Sister, my brother-in-law is so smart. He just gave us an idea and turned our losses into profits. We can even make so much money every day!"
Chen Man looked at the growth of the numbers on the books and couldn't help but say this to Chen Rou.
Chen Rou also smiled and nodded, saying very proudly.
"Of course your brother-in-law is a smart man, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to earn such a large fortune in just a few years!"
"I heard that Mr. Zhou Mu came to see your brother-in-law for something!"
Chen Man looked at Chen Rou in great surprise, but couldn't help but think about it in his heart, and asked Chen Rou in a low voice.
"Sister, my brother-in-law is so good, aren't you afraid that he will be snatched away by another woman?"
Chen Rou turned to look at Chen Man and scratched Chen Man's nose with a smile.
"You little girl, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking."
"I also told your brother-in-law about this, but your brother-in-law is not willing to marry you, but it's good that we are like this now, and we are still a family!"
Chen Man curled his lips and muttered dissatisfiedly to Chen Rou.
"They say fat water does not flow into other people's fields. You are a well-fed man but you don't know a hungry man is hungry!"
Chen Rou suddenly felt a little ashamed and angry, and directly grabbed Chen Man's ear: "Where did you learn this? Did those scholars who wrote stories teach you?"
"Watch if I don't find someone to marry you tomorrow!"
Chen Man quickly admitted his mistake. Chen Rou was planning to cause trouble again, but an excited voice sounded outside the door.
"It seems that your book club is doing well, but it's a pity that it should be called a newspaper club now!"
Hearing this voice, Chen Rou and Chen Man were pleasantly surprised. They quickly walked to the door and saw Zhao Feng and Liu Wei walking in from the outside.
"Husband, you are finally back."
"Brother-in-law, did you bring me something delicious?"
Zhao Feng laughed and said to Chen Rou and Chen Man.
"You two are running this newspaper very prosperously. The recent profit situation should satisfy you, right?"
Chen Rou nodded, Zhao Feng smiled slightly, and walked over to touch Chen Man's head, but found that Chen Man was now a tall and graceful girl, so he retracted his hand in embarrassment.
Chen Man suddenly pouted, puffed out his chest, and said to Zhao Feng.
"Brother-in-law, you haven't told me yet, have you brought me something delicious?"
Zhao Feng smiled and nodded, and Liu Wei behind him took out a pack of snacks.
"Take it, I bought this just for you."
"But you have to eat less every day. This thing is so sweet. If you eat too much, the bugs may bite your teeth out!"
Chen Man chuckled and held the snacks in his arms: "I'm not afraid!"
Zhao Feng shook his head helplessly, turned to Chen Rou and asked.
"It seems that your newspaper has become very popular. I see many people on the street holding newspapers. Do you still publish it every three days?"
Chen Rou nodded: "I also want to publish it every day, but the people responsible for writing can't write that fast, and the frequency of once a day is a bit too high, so it is difficult to make any big changes."
"But I plan to open a branch in Fucheng recently. There will be more new things there, and maybe I can do it every day!"
Zhao Feng nodded and said to Chen Rou with a smile.
"Do you remember that I told you before that if the newspaper develops, there will be another profit point?"
Chen Rou was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhao Feng with some surprise.
"Husband, are you here on a special trip to help me make more money?"
Zhao Feng chuckled: "You can think so, but it's also me who needs your help with something."
Zhao Feng pulled Chen Rou into the house and explained to Chen Rou.
"Another profitable aspect of this newspaper is that it allows people to spend money to advertise in the newspaper!"
Chen Rou looked at Zhao Feng with some confusion, silently chewing on this new term.
"advertise?"
Zhao Feng smiled slightly: "Advertising means spreading the word widely. Do you think if you run a restaurant, how will you get more customers to come to your home for dinner?"
"Of course, let more people know about your restaurant, and clearly inform them of your benefits, such as your specialties, the very cheap prices of your dishes, and the drinks you serve. "
"But you can't just drag those people to talk about it, so now something that can be seen by more people can replace this part of the work."
Chen Rou was still very smart and understood everything at this time. She looked at Zhao Feng in surprise and asked.
"Husband, are you talking about letting us use newspapers to help those people advertise?"
Zhao Feng smiled and nodded.
"Yes, in addition to advertising, you can also make your own evaluation of these advertising stores. If they want to advertise with you, they must pay you."
Chen Rou couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and asked Zhao Feng in shock.
“Would anyone really pay to do something like this?”
Zhao Feng burst out laughing. Chen Rou didn't know how hot the advertising market was. In future generations, everyone would see at least hundreds of ads every day, which proved that the profits from advertising were extremely huge.
