Chapter 108: Reprinting

"Young Master!" Mo San ran into the Mo Mansion out of breath.

Ziyi hurriedly poured a glass of water, handed it to Mo San, watched Mo San drink it in one go, and hurriedly asked, "Third brother, how is the ink magazine selling?" ”

Mo San waited anxiously in Mofu, and went directly to the street to see the sales of ink magazines.

"Young master, purple clothes, ink magazine...... Sold out! Mo San said with a look of ecstasy.

Chang'an City is the key place for the distribution of goods in Mosan, and Mosan printed a total of 5,000 copies of the weekly magazine and distributed it throughout the Guanzhong area, and Chang'an City alone distributed 2,000 copies. I didn't expect it to be sold out in a day.

"Great!" Purple was excited.

Morton had a calm face, he had a premonition of this phenomenon, the content of the ink magazine was vigorous, the news was novel, and there was a new style of purple clothing, so it was strange that it was not popular.

Although the transmission of information in this era is blocked, it does not mean that people are not hungry for information.

Chang'an City is the political and economic center of Chang'an City, with merchants coming and going from the south to the north, all kinds of restaurants and restaurants, and high-ranking households, all of which are unavoidable for the latest news.

"Print, hurry up and print!" Ziyi waved his fist and said excitedly.

It's only sold out on the first day, and you must know that the sales cycle of a semi-monthly magazine is at least about ten days, and according to this posture, sales will definitely rise again.

"Needless to say, I have already instructed to print another 8,000 copies, and as for whether to reprint it in the future, see if it is sold." The ink three is full of courage and is directly printed more than doubled.

The sale of 13,000 copies may have been a regional tabloid in later generations, but in an era of hand-engraved and hand-printed, it was already a remarkable achievement.

"Selling out is not the goal, how many are renewed." Merton asked, what can support the survival of the ink magazine is not a temporary popularity, but a long-term renewal.

"Young master, so far, there have been more than 1,000 subscriptions in Chang'an City for half a year, and 300 subscriptions for one year. But most of them are restaurants and shops. Mo San said.

Merton nodded, judging from the experience of later generations, restaurants and shops are indeed the places where information is most needed, and they have always been major distributors of newspapers.

"However, there are still some places to pay more attention to, such as private schools at all levels, and the yamen can be developed below." Merton pointed out Mo San, the school and the administrative office, which is also another major household of newspapers. Especially in private schools at all levels, the violent comics of purple clothes must have enough attraction to these bear children.

Mo San nodded, and quickly remembered it in his heart, he now admired the young master's ability very much, and every word of Merton would be regarded as a golden rule.

"Third brother, you have made a fortune this time! When will my manuscript fee be paid? Ziyi stretched out a hand in front of Mo San.

"Manuscript fee!" Mo San said with a wry smile, "Ziyi, I count a total of 13,000 points for printing, even if all of them are sold out, it will only cost thirteen yuan, plus engraving, labor, ink, and hiring people to sell ink magazines, it is estimated that the total sum is just enough for the book, where is there any money to pay you for the manuscript!" ”

"Ahh Ziyi was immediately disappointed, she thought that she would be able to support herself and make a lot of money this time, but she didn't expect that there would be no manuscript fee.

"Then you won't raise the price? Yes, if you get to two pennies a penny, you will have the money to send me a manuscript fee! Ziyi thought of a note that she thought was good.

"Ugh!" Mo San couldn't help but move. This idea seems to be good, after all, operating at a loss is not a long-term solution, but he still feels unsafe, and hurriedly looks at Merton, who is reading leisurely, and the attention of a penny and an ink journal is from him.

"Don't listen to Ziyi's nonsense, I dare to guarantee that if you increase the price, you won't even be able to get the material money back." Merton Road.

"Then what did the young master say?" Mo San was convinced of Merton.

"Rest assured, this journal is mainly to open up the market, and in the next issue, I will let various industries in Mojia Village advertise in the ink magazine, and the advertising fee alone will make you soft-hearted." Merton said.

When the paper media of later generations were rampant, which paper media survived by simply buying newspapers. There were many stacks of newspapers in later generations with a thick stack of five cents, and the purchasing power of a penny in Datang was much stronger than that of a dollar in later generations.

"How can that, how can I collect money from Mojia Village!" Mo San hurriedly excused himself.

Mo San is no stranger to advertising, and the starting point of his career is to help Mo Dun print advertisements for the Ink Technology Exhibition.

"Mojia Village advertised in the ink magazine, and the Mojia Village increased its income, and the ink magazine achieved profitability, which was a win-win situation. Moreover, if the ink magazine is regularized, there will naturally be a large number of businessmen who want to advertise in the ink magazine, and the advertising in Mojia Village will be gradually withdrawn at that time. Merton explained.

"Thank you, young master!" Mo San said gratefully.

Although it is a win-win situation, he can feel that Merton attaches great importance to the ink magazine, and even supports it with money.

If Morton knew Mo San's thoughts, he would be very pleased, although the status of the Mo family has been greatly improved through Merton's management, but for some families, it is still vulnerable, and mastering the mouthpiece of speech is also a self-preservation force for Mojia Village.

………………

In the end, Merton still underestimated Datang's thirst for information, and the 8,000 copies of the ink periodical were put into the Guanzhong area without much waves, and the 8,000 copies of the ink magazine were sold out again in just two days.

Even some discerning businessmen were about to leave Chang'an, they actually bought a large number of ink periodicals, preparing to return to their hometowns to be a second-class dealer, after all, the news from the imperial capital is still very marketable in the local area, which has prompted the second popularity of ink magazines.

"Print!"

"Print!"

After two consecutive reprints, the craze for ink magazines slowly subsided, and the final sales reached 25,000 copies, and the number of renewals for half a year directly reached 5,000 copies. This time, there was no need to wait for the advertising fee of Mojia Village to arrive, Mo San generously gave Ziyi a full amount of the manuscript fee.

With the spread of ink magazines in the Guanzhong area, the harm of consanguineous marriage and early marriage has also become more and more serious, and all kinds of shocking cases have been shocking.

Previously, people didn't think about it, but after the spread of ink magazines, Hua Lao's statistics, and some examples around him, people have to believe that the harm of consanguineous marriage and early marriage is a true fact.

However, in the face of the turbulent waves of the people, there is a dead silence above the court, and the civil court is simply two heavens of ice and fire.

There was also a hot-blooded young official who wanted to write to the imperial court and asked His Majesty to order the abolition of consanguineous marriages and early marriages.

The old official whispered in the ears of the young officials, and the young officials sighed for a while, and immediately tore the folds in their hands to shreds, handled government affairs step by step, and never mentioned this matter again, just kidding, one is the emperor, the other is the prime minister of the dynasty, you make the two of them uncomfortable, isn't that looking for death?

As for the marriage between Princess Changle and Changsun Chong, no one mentioned it again, as if this matter had never happened.
