That's great. A volume like this is a newspaper. Each newspaper costs one penny. Everyone can get twenty newspapers here at a time. When they are sold out, you can hand the money back and you can get two pence. ! "
At the door of the printing office, there were many ragged children standing there. They were all recruited to sell newspapers.
Not to mention whether child labor is used or not, in this day and age, if a child can find a job that can earn a few cents a day, then it is really a blessing.
As for whether there are children who will not pay back the money after receiving the newspapers, don’t worry.
Every child here has been registered and has a full meal, but these children can still tell them apart.
As long as he makes a few more trips, he will soon be able to earn 20 cents, so no child should give up his hard-earned job just for those 20 cents.
"Also, have you memorized the newspaper selling song I taught you?"
"remember!"
"Okay, then come up in line and get the newspaper!"
Yu Xiaosan is one of these children. He only knows his surname, Yu. As for his name, he doesn't know and no one told him.
He was originally a wanderer outside Fenyang City. When he encountered the Wang family's rebellion, he followed the refugees from Fenyang to Chang'an.
Since then, he has been living in a refugee area outside Chang'an City. He originally contracted the cold and thought he was going to die.
Unexpectedly, I met a miracle doctor named Tang. Later I heard that he was Yinshan Hou, a great hero who defeated the Turks.
After taking two strange pills, I was cured of my illness in two days.
This child is considered strong. He survived by relying on the soup kitchen shack outside the city gate and his usual dexterity, picking up some garbage.
I saw a notice from the Printing Office two days ago, so I came here to apply for a job as a newspaper seller, and I was selected.
This is also due to the fact that he hangs around outside the Chang'an County government office when he has nothing to do, and follows people on the wall to say hundreds of words.
Taking the twenty volumes of newspapers he had, he took a sneak peek and saw the word "Datang".
But he didn't dare to take a closer look. He knew the way to survive. If someone wanted to buy it, they would only buy one, so going to a place where no one has sold it before would definitely be the best way to sell it.
After selling these twenty copies and handing over the money to eighteen cents, I can save two cents. If I am more agile, I might be able to earn eight or ten cents a day today.

When he saves more money, he can buy some gifts for Yinshanhou.
Although people may not necessarily value his gifts, he feels that he can survive only by relying on the medicine from Yinshanhou and the Tang family's soup kitchen. He must be grateful as a man. These were the last words his mother left when she passed away. Yu Xiaosan remembers it very clearly.
"La la la, la la la! I'm a little expert in selling newspapers! I won't wait until I go to deliver the newspaper tomorrow. I'm walking and shouting, today's news is really good, just buy a newspaper for a copper!"
This song is catchy, and Yu Xiaosan is smart, but he only learned it after learning it two or three times.
There was a man dressed as a businessman on the roadside who had known for a long time that a Datang Weekly was coming out, so he heard Yu Xiaosan's hawking and stopped him directly.
"What you sell is Datang Weekly?"
"Sir, that's right!" Yu Xiaosan replied politely. Although his clothes were a little tattered, he had memorized the professional training seriously.
"Okay, give me one!" The merchant took out a copper plate, handed it to Yu Xiaosan, and got a newspaper from him.
"Thank you for your patronage, boss!" Yu Xiaosan bowed sincerely, and then carefully placed the copper plate in a small cloth bag close to his body.
This Datang Weekly is a new thing, and the price is really not expensive, even ordinary people can buy a copy.
Some people are still reluctant to part with it, so they just agree with the people around them to spend a penny to buy one together, and it will be the other person's turn to buy it next time.
So soon, Yu Xiaosan's twenty newspapers were sold out.
Looking up at the sky, Yu Xiaosan estimated that it had not taken half an hour.
Of course, this was due to the fact that he had just received the newspaper and came to this area where no other newsboy had ever run.
Now there are two or three newsboys here. It may not be that easy to sell in this place later.
However, he is still confident that he will sell a hundred copies today and earn ten cents.
Just when he happily ran to the printing office to get twenty more newspapers to sell, he was blocked in a remote alley by a few gangsters.
Now Yu Xiaosan regretted that he shouldn't have taken this alley just now for the shortcut.
"Brothers, why do you want to stop the young one?"
Yu Xiaosan showed a flattering smile
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, he knows when to give in.
"Okay, kid, if you don't want to suffer any physical pain, just hand over the twenty coins in your pocket!"
A rogue bit a grass root and said lazily.
He didn't care whether these twenty coppers were to be returned to the printing office. He only knew that by grabbing these twenty coppers, his brothers would at least be able to buy a piece of meat for the tooth ceremony today.
Yu Xiaosan tightly covered his chest and said nothing. Since the other party was here for this, begging for mercy was of no use.
But it is absolutely impossible for him to hand it over. This is his current fate. Losing these twenty copper coins means losing his hard-won job.
"Okay, this kid doesn't know how to praise, so let me teach him a lesson!"
The rogue looked at Yu Xiaosan's appearance and didn't want to have any more trouble with him. After all, it was still broad daylight. Although it was remote, he was caught by someone even if he couldn't protect himself.
Just as a few people were approaching Yu Xiaosan, there was a snap, and the rogue was hit on the head.
"Ouch!" He touched it with his hand and saw blood on it. Looking at the ground, he saw a small broken stone still stained with blood.
Needless to say, this is someone who stoned himself.
"Niang Xipi's!" The rogue turned around and pulled out the knife from his waist.
But as soon as he turned around, he didn't dare to move anymore because he saw clearly who was coming.
If it was an official who came here, maybe he wouldn't be so scared. After all, although he was trying to grab something, he hadn't grabbed it yet. In addition, for such a thing, he would be locked up for more than a week at most, and slapped on the board ten times at the worst.
But not now. Across the way, a man who was playing with stones was accompanied by a few people. They were dressed similarly to himself, but he knew that they were the subordinates of the new leader of Chang'an, Ma She.
If you offend an official, you will be imprisoned for a few days at most. If you offend a snake, you will not be able to survive in Chang'an City, and you may even be thrown into the moat to feed the bastard.
"Who are you guys fooling around with?" The man threw the stones in his hand high, then caught them and pretended to throw them out with force.
The rogue shrank back, closed his eyes and opened them again, only to realize that the other party was trying to scare him.
"Reply to brother, I'm not following anyone!"
