Ancient China was different from the countries of Western Europe in ancient times.

Although paper and printing, which are essential raw materials and technologies for the manufacture of newspapers, were invented in ancient China, after the Middle Ages, especially during the first industrial revolution, the industrial technology and technological level of the West began to soar and far surpassed that of the East.

Although parchment was still used in the West at the time of the invention of paper in the East, with the progress of industry, 'paper' has become a ubiquitous item in the West.

But...... It is said to be an ordinary item, but in fact it is quite valuable, that is, it is cheaper than Oriental paper.

And the cost of paper is low, which naturally means that those brain hole development experts have enough brains and materials to develop new things.

Finally, in 1450, the German Gutenberg in Europe invented the metal movable type printing technology, and the newspaper was born!

And in 1493, the newspapers of Rome also published the news of Columbus's voyage.

It's just that newspapers at that time were only published when high-profile events took place.

The reason is also very simple, after all, the cost of newspapers at that time was still too expensive, the technology of collecting intelligence and news was still too backward, and there was no 'advertising' in newspapers at that time as a way to make money.

It is simply not possible to issue it from time to time.

But even so, the existence and concept of the 'newspaper' has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In contrast, during this period, there were only 'notices' and 'Di Bao' that circulated among officialdom.

There is no concept of a newspaper at all.

But in the same way, without the concept of newspapers, it is better and easier to implant the concept.

Just look at the West.

In 1609, after Germany was the first to publish a regular newspaper, the newspaper instantly became popular throughout Europe, and the German newspaper at that time was still a 'weekly'.

Bi Liwang's newspaper is not only a daily newspaper, but also uses modern marketing strategies.

Bi Liwang doesn't believe it, such a newspaper won't be popular?!

As Bi Liwang expected, Daming Daily is on fire! It's just that it's not a forest fire, it can only be regarded as firewood in a stove!

As a result of Bi Liwang's propaganda......

In the propaganda, Bi Liwang did not point out the biggest difference between newspapers and books, nor did he point out the characteristics of newspapers.

Let's just say that this newspaper is cheap. Compared to the same amount of books, the price of newspapers exploded several streets.

And in addition to this, Bi Liwang also said that a new newspaper will be updated every day.

Therefore, driven by the inertia of thinking, people subconsciously regard the newspaper as a book.

Books can be read and appreciated, but in ancient times, when books were as expensive as gold, could they be circulated at will?

No! It's broken, but it's gone.

So, the fire of the newspaper is just the fire of the stove.

But...... The fire in this stove will burn out of the stove sooner or later, causing a fire.

After all, there is still a difference between newspapers and books, just like the most famous green buildings in the capital now...... A glimmer of fire has already turned out of the stove.

Speaking of Qinglou, whether it is Tang and Song poems or Ming and Qing novels, Huajie Liuxiang is often the source of literary creation.

From Liang Hongyu in the Song Dynasty, to Chen Yuanyuan in the late Ming Dynasty, and then to the little phoenix in the Republic of China, the fireworks girls are also influencing history in their own ways.

In the general impression, they are always full of charms, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can casually talk and laugh with the famous scholars and Confucians at that time. +1S。

And like Master Li, he didn't even take Song Huizong in his eyes.

According to this logic, in ancient times, when a Qinglou woman was lucky, she went straight to the pinnacle of life, and if she was not good, she could also support herself by learning a skill.

In reality, however, the situation is not so rosy.

From the origin of the green building, and the fireworks woman.

The earliest Qinglou appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, proposed by Guan Zhong, and created the first Qinglou at that time, and it was a state-level unit as soon as it was created.

The purpose is to solve the living needs of the singles and collect wealth for the country. The main thing is to collect money.

And where did the original fireworks woman in the Qinglou come from? Captive!

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, various places fought wars, and prisoners were naturally indispensable, and everything fell into place.

The Qinglou of later generations all respected Guan Zhong as the ancestor and grandfather!

From this point of view, a cruel fact emerges in front of us, the earliest fireworks woman is just a tool.

In fact, it was not until the Tang Dynasty that the social atmosphere was open, and the people let the fireworks girls learn qin, chess, calligraphy and painting in order to follow up the trend.

In order to let them increase their self-worth, increase their worth, and welcome some noble guests.

Didn't you see that Du Shi Niang to redeem herself?

Correct...... In fact, this is the middle-class and upper-class treatment that the women in the Qinglou are looking for.

For the Qinglou women on the lower floors, there is only endless wind and dust left...... No, it's endless smog.

It can be seen according to the distinction between the ranks and names of the Qinglou women in Shanghai during the Republic of China......

The highest title is 'Female School', which is very literate at first hearing, followed by 'Chang San' derived from Pai Gow, followed by 'Unit Two' and 'Taiji', as well as 'Pheasant' and 'Nail Shed'.

(Don't ask me why I know so well, I'm just a rich five-car learner.) Firm face .jpg. Gentleman Face .jpg)

And those who often patronize the Qinglou, boast of being extraordinary, self-proclaimed literary talents, literati and ink writers, students and talents, whenever they visit the Qinglou, the young lady they are looking for is not the level of pheasant and nail shed.

At least it is above the second and the base, because most of the women of this level have read books and are worth more.

Looking for such a woman can better set off your worth.

And at this time...... A newspaper flowed into the green buildings in the capital.

Take ordinary women as an example, they all have more or less unspeakable resentment in the boudoir...... And, what about the dusty women?

The women in the boudoir are all resentful, not to mention ...... Are they who have to laugh with men every day and every night, and they have to be plowed by men several times a day?!

Their grievances will naturally not be less.

Moreover, they have been locked in the green building all the time, and there is no freedom.

With resentment, it is natural to eliminate thoughts and relieve boredom...... Talking to guests every day is the best way to relieve boredom.

It's just that this kind of relief to boredom must have enough literary style and talking points. It's impossible to talk to a guest about how to maintain a woman when she comes to Aoi Sui every month, right?

At this time, this newspaper, the newspaper that flowed into the Qinglou, was the best talking point.

……

At this time, it was still a sunny day, although the gate of the green building was closed.

But the women who were supposed to recuperate when the gate was closed, but all those who had some cultural literacy did not sleep as usual.
