Chapter 176: The Bronze Bell of Transmission
Guanzhong, Liyang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Soldiers erected stone platforms overnight.
This is not so much a stone platform as a bell tower.
This small bell tower is at the entrance and exit of the market, and there is a bronze bell that looks like a newly cast bronze bell hangs on it, which makes the people in the city feel strange.
"Father, father, why are they hanging clocks in the market?"
A little girl of about ten years old, with two cute pigtails, was lying on the window of a wine shop.
The little girl is on the window table next to her, the old man is drinking with gray hair, the tiger's back is very tall, the clothes are very simple and simple, a face is smoky and dark and rough all the year round, his hands are covered with calluses, his name is Ou Lingzi, not an ordinary person, he is the eighth grandson of Ou Yezi, a famous craftsman in the Warring States Period!
In the past 300 years of the Ou family, the craftsmen have been passed down from generation to generation, which has become a tradition, but because there are too few protΓ©gΓ©s, the rivers and lakes are gradually declining.
There are no more men in the Ou family, and Ou Lingzi is the last inheritor of the Ou craftsman.
This has to be said to be a very regrettable thing.
Ou Lingzi looked at it, the bronze bell was hundreds of meters apart, but he still had an insight into the mystery at a glance, "Huan'er, this bell is not simple, you look at the lines on it, this is obviously a formation engraved by a master, since it is placed in this place, I think it will naturally be useful." β
What can an ordinary bronze bell do?
The little girl Huan'er just wanted to speak.
The melodious bell rings in my ears.
Everyone was attracted by the sound of the bell, and when they looked over, they saw a very strange scene, no one touched and struck the bell, but the bell shook gently by itself, and made a melodious and loud sound from it, which could almost cover most of the city!
Knock! Knock!
The three bells are over.
Let all the people look at each other,
At this time, the bronze bell was slightly stagnant for ten seconds, and then shook again, and the formation from the inside out lit up with a faint light. Something shocking happened, this time there was no bell from the bronze bell, and a very clear human voice came from inside.
"Hello old Qin!"
"Please don't panic, what you are hearing now is Lao Qin's broadcast!"
"Lao Qin Radio broadcasts once in the morning, noon and evening, interpreting the new issue of Daqin newspaper for Lao Qin people, if you want to guide more detailed content, please buy Daqin People's Daily, which is sold in the markets of various counties. β
β......β
The people were dumbfounded.
The bronze bell of the bell tower has spoken?!
The bronze bell shook and made a burst of sound.
It is actually explaining the content of Daqin Daily.
The little girl Huan'er was so surprised that she couldn't even close her mouth.
"Father, did you see it?
"The pattern of the bronze bell engraved seems to have the effect of transmitting sound. β
Ou Lingzi saw the problem, and the secret was in the formation of the bronze bell.
The world is full of wonders, just a few sounds, and some treasures can be done, but this way of sound transmission makes people feel very fresh. The broadcast of the big bronze bell lasted for a short quarter of an hour, and the content of the propaganda was the latest policies and decrees, so that everyone could hear it clearly.
"What the hell is this?"
"Does it make a sound every day?"
"Great, we can't read and read the notices, so it's much more convenient to have this big clock. β
The people of Liyang City feel that it is novel and real, this new thing will obviously bring convenience to the people, and will also add a lot of fun to the people's lives.
"Father, this newspaper is so strange, it is not an animal skin, it is not a wooden tablet, but it can be written. β
Xiaohuan held the newspaper and sent it to his grandfather.
Paper is not an expensive thing, compared to animal skins, bamboo slips, silk silk, there are advantages of lightness and easy to write, if you have to say that there are any shortcomings, it is more fragile and easy to damage, if it is easy to be eroded for a long time.
Ou Lingzi read the newspaper again, and he found that the content of the newspaper covered policies, Qindi news and strange events, etc., all of which were closely related to people's lives.
"These anti-thieves, who do all kinds of evil, are they not afraid of the way of heaven!"
"That's right, after entering the customs, I am disgusting and exhausted!"
"Pity the people of Guanzhong! Pity the sentient beings of Daqin!"
Several scholars commented indignantly.
There was a special column in this newspaper, which truthfully recorded the atrocities committed by the anti-Qin princes when they entered the customs, and the Qin people were naturally angry when they were young. When Ou Lingzi saw their expressions, he vaguely realized that this newspaper was not just a commodity.
"Where is the place described in this "Journey to the West"?"
"Is there really an Aolai country, and where is Huaguo Mountain?"
"What happened to the stone monkey after absorbing the aura of heaven and earth? Is he a monster?"
Xiaohuan has no interest in other content, but after reading the beginning of Journey to the West, his eyes suddenly shine, as if he had discovered a new continent.
Ou Lingzi smiled bitterly.
How does he know?
This newspaper does not seem to be a one-time issue, so if you want to know the follow-up story, you can only continue to buy the following newspaper, which is so cheap, convenient, beneficial and interesting...... I'm afraid it's hard not to be popular!
"Father, look here!" Xiaohuan pointed to a column with his white finger: "Longxi County is recruiting blacksmiths, those ordinary blacksmiths are being reused, Father is the best blacksmith in the world, why don't you give it a try?"
Ou Lingzi was a little moved.
In the past two years, he has traveled around looking for good mines, hoping to forge a famous weapon that illuminates the annals of history like his ancestor Ou Zhizi, and leave the last bit of aftermath for the Ou family in the history books.
But it's hard to find a good mine.
There is also a big gap between Ou Lingzi's skills and Ou Yezi!
When Ou Lingzi realized the cruelty of reality, he gradually became a little discouraged, and his granddaughter Xiaohuan gradually grew up, and she couldn't continue to wander away with her, maybe it was time to find a place to settle down and live a good life.
"Let's go and see!"
Ou Lingzi paid for the wine and left, Xiaohuan jumped up and down with the newspaper in her hand and followed behind, her face was full of childishness, innocence and joy, she thought that if she could stay in Qin in the future, she could see the latest Journey to the West story as soon as it came out.
............
Longxi Tai County.
Qin II was sitting on a recliner, holding the Fountain of Immortality Spiritual Tea in his hand, and was playing with a small bell.
When the bell shakes, it is not a ringtone, but the content of the broadcast, similar to the effect of a radio, which makes people have to be surprised and amazed.
There's nothing mysterious about how this thing works.
Qin Ge completed the main quest in Longxi and was once rewarded with a set of formation diagrams.
This set of arrays is called the sound and shadow transmission array, it is different from the transmission of the teleportation array that shrinks the ground into inches, the things that are transmitted are actually sound and image, Huang Yueying after some research, extracted a part of the formation atlas, and when after some improvement, he invented the sound transmission copper bell and the sound transmission bell.
Bronze bells and bells.
In fact, the essence is the radio station and the radio.
Among them, the Transsion bronze bell has begun to be promoted, and towers have been built in several major cities.
The transsion bell in Qin Singer is still being perfected, and it is only a test version at present, but it is believed that after improvement, this kind of bell has the potential to enter thousands of households and become an indispensable item for people's life, entertainment, pastime and access to information.
The Transsion Bell Tower is mainly for large cities.
Qin Ge is also recruiting professional newspaper readers, let them take the newspaper to the countryside to read the newspaper, even if the people in remote mountain villages are illiterate, they can also enjoy the convenience brought by the newspaper, for the small and ignorant life, open a window to understand the outside world.
In the end, newspapers and public opinion will become a powerful tool and weapon for Qin II to manage the country!
"Lord Qin!"
Shangguan Wan'er pushed the door in with excitement on her face.
This strong woman's gaffe is very rare, but she is so happy today, her full chest falls together when she breathes, and she almost feels like she wants to break free from the restraints and tear out.
Qin Ge's eyes were a little straight, this woman's figure was really devilish, he coughed lightly twice, put things aside casually, and then looked at her and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The 10,000 newspapers we distributed to various places were sold out in less than half a day, and the printing house has started to print urgently, I really didn't expect it to be so popular!"
What the?
Actually sold out?
Daqin Daily is a penny.
One coin is equivalent to the purchasing power of ten yuan.
The economic level of this era is actually very expensive.
Qin Ge thought that a circulation of 10,000 copies was more than enough, but now it seems that he is underestimating the potential of the newspaper.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "10,000 copies of 10,000 yuan, a total of 620 gold, and the cost of the newspaper is very low, we make a profit of at least 5 or 600 gold, if the daily newspaper can really be published every day, this will be a cash cow that will never dry up!"
Net five or six hundred gold a day.
Ten days net profit of five or six thousand gold!
How much can you earn in a year?
And that's still the case with the minimum circulation!
In addition to daily newspapers, there are also weekly magazines, which are more priced and have equally amazing prospects!
At this stage, the relationship between lack of manpower, although the location of the newspaper is in the Yinyangshan Industrial Park, there is a time difference to improve the efficiency of production, but the difficulty of one issue a day is still too great, and the current conditions and output are at most two or three issues a week.
Qin Ge was not in a hurry.
And that's just the beginning.
What's more, two issues a week are enough to make a lot of money.
Since the newspaper is so popular, it is natural to do it well!
Qin Ge immediately ordered: "There are two things that must be started immediately. β
Shangguan Wan'er nodded, and immediately became serious, "Please speak." β
"First, you need to find a way to persuade Fatty Bird to make him the editor-in-chief of Daqin Newspaper, and then recruit celebrities and talents to expand the editorial team, in addition, you need to recruit a large number of reporters to go to various places to collect public information and news to ensure the quality of each issue of the newspaper. β
The editor is understandable.
What is this journalist?
But Shangguan Wan'er is so smart, just a little thought about it to understand!
Reporters are the people and news recorders, because Daqin Daily is aimed at ordinary people, so if you want to maintain a best-selling situation, you can't get rid of the people, and a sufficiently sophisticated reporter army is very necessary.
If there is no reporter, the most authentic and down-to-earth side will be fed back.
What's the use of gathering more talented people and celebrities?
If the daily newspaper goes beyond the lives of ordinary people, it will appear flashy and thus lose its appeal!
Your Majesty really thought about it and even thought of this question!
"Second, let Zhang Han pay attention to the check-in at the pass, and prohibit the businessman from taking the daily newspaper out of Qinguan. β
Shangguan Wan'er nodded, the newspaper is not only of astonishing commercial value, but also an unprecedented weapon of public opinion, the daily newspaper due to its wide audience, the number of people involved is too large, if it spreads to the six countries of Shandong, it will cause trouble somewhat, now is the early stage of newspaper distribution, if you can keep a low profile, try to keep a low profile.
Shangguan Wan'er was full of energy and ready to act.
"By the way, there seems to be something going on over there in Jincheng!" she suddenly remembered something else: "The ancient stone tomb in the center of Jincheng has become more and more unstable, and the king of Longxi is worried that something will happen sooner or later. β
Qin Ge couldn't help frowning.
The ancient stone tomb is indeed a troublesome thing.
This ancient relic has a mysterious origin, and if it is not solved as soon as possible, not only will the golden city be unusable, but it will also become a time bomb!
