Chapter 10: The Wind and Moon Tabloids
"Outside, outside, the Russian employees in the Middle East are on strike!"
"Outside, outside, the Soviet division has arrived in the Northeast!"
"Extra, extra, Japan will intervene!"
As Chen Qiang expected, in this era of war and chaos, there is no shortage of extra-horn content, and a Middle East Road incident makes Chen Qiang have extra-number to sell every day, which is equivalent to making an extra two cents a day.
These days, Chen Qiang finally ate meat, in addition to vegetable and meat buns, he also ate eggs twice.
The things that have been tired of eating in later generations have become the driving force for Chen Qiang's life in this era. If he can eat meat, he will be able to reap a full sense of happiness.
While selling newspapers during the day, he continued to run 10,000 meters to earn points, and after sleeping at night, he practiced sprinting and physical fitness in that training space, which became Chen Qiang's daily routine.
On this day, when Chen Qiang went to Chen Ru to write down the newspaper, he was stopped by the guy who was also surnamed Chen.
This guy is the one who watched Chen Qiang run fast a few days ago and asked Chen Qiang what his name was. He is the fifth oldest in the family, so the older people call him "Little Five", and the younger people call him "Fifth Brother".
"Chen Qiang, come here!" Fifth Brother Chen beckoned to Chen Qiang.
"Fifth brother, what are you looking for me?" Chen Qiang walked over with a smile on his face.
"I heard you can read?" Fifth Brother Chen asked.
Chen Qiang nodded, and Fifth Brother Chen then asked, "Do you know how many words?" ”
"You can read any newspaper." Chen Qiang replied.
"Wait a minute." I saw that Fifth Brother Chen put on a mysterious look, and then pulled out a pile of old newspapers and handed it to Chen Qiang.
"Do you know this?" Fifth Brother Chen asked.
"This ......" Chen Qiang looked at the pile of newspapers, glanced at the headline, and knew what it was.
"This is the Fengyue tabloid?" Chen Qiang asked tentatively.
Fifth Brother Chen nodded: "Yes, you kid still know this." But you should know this at your age. This is the last few issues that have been released, there are several of them, don't say that the fifth brother has good things and doesn't think about you, let's sell them. ”
"Fifth brother, how much do you have to do this?" Chen Qiang asked.
"Take it and sell it first, sell as much as you can, and give me half of the discount if you sell." Fifth Brother Chen said.
Fifth Brother Chen's meaning is very simple, let Chen Qiang take these newspapers to sell them first, and if he sells them for one dollar, he can just go back and give Fifth Brother Chen five cents. In other words, these newspapers have a full fifty percent of the profits!
On weekdays, the newsboy buys the newspaper from the newspaper office to sell, but it is all at a 20% discount, and the newsboy only has a 20% profit. This Fengyue tabloid has a fifty percent profit, which means that the newsboy can earn more.
……
Fengyue tabloid is a very unique product of the Republic of China, this kind of newspaper is produced by some unfamous tabloids, many of which are not even fixed in time, or once a day every three or five days, or once a week, and some may issue a few issues that do not sell well, so they will be suspended.
This thing is a bit similar to some online authors.,The update is not strong.,Three days of fishing and two days of drying the net.,I remembered a more chapter.,If you're lazy, you won't change it.,Maybe one day you'll be in a bad mood and be a direct eunuch.。
There is no current affairs news in the Fengyue tabloid, and the content in it is mainly based on stories. The reason why it is called Fengyue tabloids is also because most of them are Fengyue stories.
Although some Fengyue stories are very vulgar, ordinary people are still more fond of such vulgar stories, so all kinds of Fengyue tabloids can survive.
In fact, the stories of Fengyue in this kind of Fengyue tabloids are not obscene and pornographic in the real sense, at most they are playing some marginal balls, and if it is really that kind of unhealthy content, they dare not publish it in the newspaper. But this is enough to arouse the desire of some people to buy.
For example, every issue of "Men's Clothing" will find a beautiful big sister in ragged clothes to shoot the cover, and a men's magazine deliberately made such a cover, not to attract readers to buy.
I believe that many men buy this magazine for the first time, not to learn how men should be fashionable and how to become more tasteful, but to appreciate the beautiful big sister on the cover with an artistic eye, and look forward to whether the big sister in the magazine will be more economical in fabric.
The circulation of this kind of Fengyue tabloid is not large, with one or two thousand, three or four thousand copies. Basically, the smaller the circulation, the more content there will be on the edge ball, and as the circulation increases, the less content the edge ball will have. If the circulation exceeds 5,000 points, then the content is absolutely serious, after all, the tree is very popular, and the newspaper is afraid of getting into trouble.
In terms of selling price, all kinds of Fengyue tabloids are not cheap, such as "Declaration" and "News", which are comprehensive newspapers, there will be many businesses to advertise, so you can rely on advertising fees to make up for the cost, and even make a profit. The tabloid has a small circulation, so naturally there is no advertising, so the price will be more expensive.
The six major sheets of "Declaration" sell for 4 cents, while many Fengyue tabloids only have a large content, and they also sell for 4 cents. At the same price, Fengyue tabloid only has one-sixth of the cost, and the profit can be imagined.
Of course, people who really want to read this kind of newspaper will not care about the 4 cents.
There is no serious content in the Fengyue tabloid, and people who buy newspapers also feel that reading this kind of newspaper is a disgraceful thing, and weekday newspapers are sold through newsstands, and rarely through newsboys.
And what Fifth Brother Chen gave to Chen Qiang was actually a previous Fengyue tabloid.
According to the rules, this kind of expired newspaper will be disposed of as waste paper, and waste paper is definitely worthless. There are some nimble guys in the newspaper delivery office, and they find some way to sell the old newspaper, even if the price is lower, it is always higher than the price of selling waste paper.
Fifth Brother Chen collected old newspapers that should have been sold as waste paper, and then handed them over to the newsboy for sale. Even if it is only sold at a 50% discount, it is more cost-effective than selling waste paper, and he can also make the difference from it.
And Fifth Brother Chen chose Chen Qiang because Chen Qiang is relatively old among the newsboys. This Fengyue tabloid is full of some Fengyue stories, and there are some edge balls, and you can't sell it if you don't understand anything if you find a little kid, so you naturally have to look for an older one.
In the past, people were precocious, and even in the Republic of China, there were many people who got married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. Therefore, it is not a violation of the peace to let the fifteen-year-old Chen Qiang sell the Fengyue tabloid.
……
Straight to the point.
After Chen Qiang knew that there was a fifty percent profit, he took over the business without hesitation.
A Fengyue tabloid sells for 4 cents, and he can get 2 cents, and sells 10 Fengyue tabloids, which is a day before dinner. If he sells all the Fengyue tabloids in his hand, it will be enough for Chen Qiang to buy a piece of pig's head meat and make a tooth sacrifice.
"If you can improve your food this week, just look at these tabloids!" Chen Qiang weighed the newspaper in his hand, but he began to wonder in his heart, how to sell these Fengyue tabloids.
