In Kamiya County, in a remote printing workshop, more than a dozen people, each holding a piece of paper in their hands, are placing small squares in the word board according to the words on the paper, and each small square is engraved with a different font.

Coming out of the Taishou Mansion, Zhao Hui came here.

Since the beginning of printing, Zhao Hui has always wanted to make newspapers.

It's just that the conditions were not ripe before, after all, many of the things published in the newspaper were not allowed by the Han government.

Moreover, Zhao Hui at that time did not have so many knowledgeable talents in his hands, and few of the hundred people were literate.

Now Zhao Hui is about to be the Taishou of Shanggu County, and the prestige of the Han court has been greatly lost, and the various princes are about to annex each other.

A newspaper, even if it is a taboo thing recorded on it, no one will care.

The purpose of this newspaper is to let the people of Shanggu County know about the world's major events, people's livelihood, and administrative and military affairs.

The military administration is certainly something that can be said and is not a secret.

As for military intentions and troop deployments, these things certainly cannot be made public.

It can be said in the newspapers how strong their army was and how many victories they fought. Comprehensively publicize the glorious image of the soldier.

In terms of people's livelihood, it can be said that the living standards of the people of Shanggu County are compared with other counties.

Or how some people who live in hardship live.

How so-and-so is not afraid of danger and sacrifices himself to save others.

Whoever bullied the old and weak was punished by the government.

Administratively, it is possible to publish and issue which decrees are beneficial to the people.

If something happens in the city, the people who know about it can also go to the newspaper office and provide information, and if it is true and valid, they will get some money.

Zhao Hui only provided a general idea in this regard.

The content published in the newspaper will be written by the newspaper staff.

Some of these people were the elites in the Black Wind Village, and some were observed by Lu Li in the bookstore, and after investigation, they were selected to enter the newspapers and periodicals.

In addition to the need for confidentiality because of movable type printing, the content published in the newspaper must not appear unfavorable to Zhao Hui.

The people's will is very important, Liu Bei, who has nothing, can succeed, in addition to being able to get the support of the people because of the strategists and fierce generals around him, which is also an important reason.

Newspapers are a very effective tool that can amplify people's hearts.

can let the people see what Zhao Hui has done for them. You can know what happens every day in Ueya-gun. Give them a sense of being involved.

Those who do good deeds will be commended, and those who do bad deeds will be punished.

Public opinion has always been in the hands of the government and the family, and the newspapers will change all that.

Without newspapers, it would be difficult for ordinary people to know what was going on in the world.

Just like the war between the Xianbei tribes, the news spread to the Han, but only the upper echelons of the Han knew about it.

Most ordinary people don't know that only those who have gone to the restaurant will hear a little from other people's chats.

No one cares what the people at the bottom think, and no one cares what they think.

Dong Zhuo's various deeds in Luoyang are only known to the people of Luoyang.

Even if Liu Yu, Gongsun Zan and others knew, this matter would not reach the ears of the people of Youzhou.

There is no need, they don't need to know.

This is what many scholars think.

These things can be handled by the doctors, and only they can handle them.

Newspapers don't just tell ordinary people this information, but more importantly, they can broaden their minds and let them use their brains. Let them judge in their hearts whether these things are good or bad.

Zhao Hui can also gain the hearts of the people faster through the release of newspapers.

The printing shop is in the most remote part of Upper Valley County. But Youzhou Minbao is in the most prosperous street and the most eye-catching location in Shanggu County.

The first issue of Youzhou Minbao was not written by Zhao Hui, but Zhao Hui personally participated in it. The content published was personally selected by Zhao Hui.

There is a battle between the three major tribes of Xianbei, but it is only mentioned slightly, and it is not too deep.

The content of this first issue is mainly the affairs of Dong Zhuo and the princes from all walks of life.

How Dong Zhuo committed murder when he was in Luoyang, how he brutalized Zhongliang, and oppressed the people, was written by Lin Song, which made people who watched it feel like they were deeply trapped in it, causing resonance, and wishing that Dong Zhuo would be divided by five horses.

How did the princes of the Eighteenth Route form an alliance, and when they were crusading against Dong Zhuo, how they were intrigued and did not contribute to their work.

It also made the people watching very angry, and they couldn't wait to become them immediately and lead the troops to kill Dong Zhuo.

In addition to these, there is also some space devoted to daily life in Ueya-gun.

The biggest problem with a new newspaper is to convince people that what is published on it is true.

If people feel that the content on it is false, then the newspaper is finished, no one will buy it, and it will not achieve the effect of publicity.

In the first few issues, we must do a good job, and everything published on it must be true.

I can't judge whether it's true or not, so I'd rather not publish it.

This is Zhao Hui's rigid requirement for newspapers and printing houses.

In addition to these happenings, a small area was left for some advertising.

The first issue of the advertisement was for a bookstore. As for the later advertisement, it depends on who spends the money to buy it.

Zhao Hui won't give them free advertising.

More than a dozen people in the printing workshop, after arranging the printed contents, began to brush the ink, and then spread the paper one by one.

This first time, Zhao Hui didn't let them print too much, only 5,000 copies.

The next day they all appeared in the newspaper office.

Because it is newly opened, and when you look through the door, the newspaper office is very empty compared to other shops, with only a dozen tables and chairs.

Even though this is the busiest area of Upper Valley County, there are already people outside early in the morning, but few people come in.

After a few curious people came in, before Lin Song could speak, he went out directly.

Finally, Lin Song grabbed a person, but this person still didn't know a single big word, so he naturally had no interest in the newspaper at all, shook his head and left.

"Youzhou People's Daily? What is this selling? A man passing by gave a puzzled look at the plaque hanging in the doorway, and then walked in with curiosity.

"Are you the shopkeeper?" The man looked at Lin Song standing at the counter and asked, "What are you selling here?" ”

"Newspapers." Seeing that the man was puzzled, Lin Song directly took out a copy and put it in front of him, saying, "This is it." ”

I can read the plaque at the door, the man doesn't know any words, and he has no problem reading it at all, so he stands in front of the counter with the newspaper and reads it.
