Chapter 360: In the Newspaper

Early the next morning, Gülen came to the palace, in a very good mood, and his spirits were so bright that people knew that something good was good at first sight.

"How's it going? Did Flandy give you a good idea?" said Prime Minister Don when he saw Gülen's appearance.

"Hahaha! Lord Donn, you're really right, Flandy has given me several ideas!"

The problem of rumors stumped all the ministers, and they didn't expect that Flandy would be able to solve it at once? Prime Minister Don was a little unconvinced, but Gülen's attitude could not be faked, so they were all very curious.

"Your Majesty, tell me what the hell did Flandy give you?" urged Dean, the Minister of Industry.

"Hahaha, he first explained to me why there were rumors. ”

"Why?" and what did he say?"

So Glenn retold the conversation he had with Flandy last night and told it to the important ministers present.

When all the important ministers heard Frandi's idea, they were speechless.

Except for the magic car and the megaphone or something, there is basically no cost, and it is difficult for everyone to solve the rumor problem all day yesterday, so easily?

However, after thinking about these ideas carefully, I have to admit that if they are really implemented, the effect should be very good.

Now that he had an idea, after discussion, the steps for implementation were quickly laid out, and Minister Dean reluctantly parted his love and contributed five magic trucks, because this kind of big guy is the most absorbent, and it can also play a certain role in dispelling rumors.

More than forty Mana Trucks have now been built, half of which are used in the mines of the Iwu Kingdom, and the other half have been sent to the Duk Mahon battlefield to deliver supplies.

A magic truck can withstand the carrying capacity of a dozen carriages, and there is no need to wait for those horses, and there is a special supply of magic essence, which makes everyone in the Ministry of Engineering very satisfied, and every magic truck is treated as a treasure.

The happiest was the Minister of Culture, Clarence, who had no real power and was surrounded by knowledgeable figures who had neither money nor force, but this time the matter of "public opinion" helped him a lot, and gave him a sense of presence among the important ministers present.

"Your Majesty, just now I listened to the idea that Mr. Flandy gave you, and found that whether it is a propagandist or a mobile propaganda vehicle, the focus is on this item called 'newspaper', but I still don't understand what a newspaper looks like. ”

"It's okay, Flandi said, he wrote the first few issues of the newspaper, and you can do what he did in the future, don't be in a hurry now. ”

"That's good. The Minister of Culture is relieved that in his opinion, he finally has the opportunity to show his talents, and he must let the rumors dissipate as soon as possible, so that his voice can be increased in the future.

However, he thought too much, as soon as Frandi's ideas came out, the future status of the Ministry of Culture will be very important, even more important than other departments, after all, culture is the management of people's hearts, and people's hearts are the foundation of national stability.

"Well, since we don't have any other opinions on these ideas, let's decide where the 'theater' will be located, and the route that the 'mobile propaganda van' will promote. ”

These are trivial things, but they are relatively trivial, and the hall of the council hall is noisy again.

......

In a previous life, how could it be so easy to start a newspaper? It was absolutely impossible for a single person to do so.

If nothing else, just running the formalities can exhaust people to death.

But in the Oskaia Empire, it was different, and Flandi had an idea, including the emperor, plus all the important ministers, to support it with all his might.

There is no administrative problem at all, so the focus is on the content.

In his previous life, Flandi actually didn't read many newspapers, because when he started to read and write, newspapers had slowly declined, and when he became an adult, how many young people could read newspapers in that era?

It was an era of information explosion, and although I didn't read many newspapers, I could see more detailed news, reports, reviews, and facts on the Internet, so it wasn't too difficult to really write.

Newspapers are for the public, and although the masses in this world don't know how to read, they must also listen to them clearly, so they can't be written in a crepe, they must be able to understand as soon as they listen to them.

Since there had never been a newspaper before, the standard was set by Flandy, this is a government newspaper, it must be serious, the information must be accurate, and it must not be able to make up a story just by guessing like the entertainment newspaper in the previous life.

What's the latest news? Of course, it's a war with Warcraft, and that's where the rumors started, so when Franky was compiling, he took this matter as the theme, supplemented by the preparations for the war by the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of War, and wrote a thick stack of manuscripts.

There was so much to write that Flandy wrote more and more, and when it was almost dinner time in the evening, he realized that the manuscripts were enough to be sold over several days. 187

When Glenn returned to the Magic Tower, he saw the manuscripts written by Flandy, and he didn't even eat, so he read them in the library for more than two hours.

The same is true for the friends, who had come to ask Gülen for dinner, but found that Gülen was fascinated and curious, and they were all fascinated.

"Frandi, I didn't expect you to be so talented, this can be a book!" Vito looked at the manuscript and couldn't help but have a kind of admiration for Frandi.

The others too, everyone has played since childhood, and I really haven't noticed that Flandi has such a side before.

In fact, Glenn knows most of the content of these manuscripts, and knows much more than Flandy, because some of them are his decisions at all, but he still reads them with relish, and he feels a little uneasy.

Because Flandy uses the kind of news style written in his previous life, it can be understood at once, and it has a strong tendency, so that those who see it unconsciously feel that he is right, and follow his train of thought.

"Okay, okay, anyway, you've all read it again, have you found any typos, sick sentences, or anything like that?"

"No, I think you're well written!"

"Me too, I didn't see anything wrong. ”

"Why don't I read it again? I didn't pay much attention to it just now. ”

Well, it took almost two hours to read these manuscripts once, but everyone couldn't help but read them again, and once again felt that the ones written in the manuscripts were too exciting.

As a result, dinner was postponed for more than four hours, causing Erin and Jill in the restaurant to have to reheat it.

......

The rumors were dispelled, and the next day Franky asked Tom and Jerry to take the manuscripts to the printing house for a large number of printings.

Since the Imperial Academy of Sciences had established the printing house, it had received a big job to print books for the civilian college, which was the busiest time for the whole factory, and since almost all of them had never done such work, there were many kinds of situations.

After fighting for a while, the workers began to become familiar with the printing press driven by the magic engine, but gradually became more and more idle, and there was less and less work to do.

The main reason is that there are too few people who can read and write, and the books treasured by the nobles will not be easily taken out and handed over to the printing house for mass printing, because then they will not be able to show the preciousness of their books.

There is no one in the people who can collect books, and even if there is, it is impossible to spend money to print, although the printed paper is very cheap, but arranging those movable types is a technical job, not ordinary people can do it, so it is very expensive.

Besides, who do you print and sell to? Many people can't read at all, so what's the use of buying them? Do you print a bunch of books and hide them at home?

Originally, the students of Oskaia University did not like the books printed in batches at all, not because of the quality, but because they were the children of the nobility, and they did not want to use the same books as the commoners, thinking that it would be very unrequiting.

When Tom and Jerry arrive at the printing house with Frandy's manuscript, Sid, the director of the printing house, is overjoyed.

It seems that the dean is still thinking about the printing house, although there is no work to do, and the Imperial Academy of Sciences has not been in arrears with the salaries of the workers, but it is not a matter of time to be idle after all, it is better to start work, otherwise I always feel that I am in a state of owe and panic.

The manuscripts are ready to be released in a week.

Now he is the only one who writes, and yesterday he wrote with a quill pen so that his hands were a little numb, and it would be too painful to do this every day, so for the time being, only one newspaper was published every day, on both sides of the front and back, about seven or eight thousand words.

There were eight typesetters in the printing house, all of whom were the children of a down-and-out aristocracy who might have become bards telling stories if they hadn't come to the printing house.

However, the status of working here is very high, second only to a few stewards, because most of the workers here do not know how to read, and can only do those dirty and tiring hard work.

In the bright and tidy office, they can leisurely put the word blocks made of alloy into the counter.

Today, I heard that these articles were written by Dean Flandy himself, and I was interested.

Originally, the eight typesetters were just doing their jobs, and each of the seven or eight thousand words was only responsible for one thousand words, but after they finished their work, they went to their colleagues to hang out.

There is nothing else, but the content deeply attracts them, but unfortunately they only have a part of it, and they can't see the others, and they feel itchy and panicked, and they really want to have a sneak peek.

When the newspaper was first opened, the number of printed copies was not too much, but it was only 2,000 copies, and in addition to the "propagandists" who were recruiting, the rest were distributed to the large and small nobles in the imperial capital.
