Chapter 15: Newspaper salesman(1/2)
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers!"
"Three copper coins, one newspaper, three copper coins, one newspaper!"
"Today's big news, the Principality of Violet officially established a sub-church of the Holy See, and Cardinal Pablo serves as the Archbishop of the sub-church."
The streets of Shanjin Town are covered with cobblestone paved roads. A young man is holding more than ten parchment rolls and newspapers in his hand and is hawking on the street.
The young man is not old, at the age of sixteen.
Wearing civilian linen clothing, a pretty face and a sweet smile, she was very popular with the passing ladies and wives.
After selling all the way, the young man had already sold more than ten newspapers in his hand.
After packing up the wallet, the young man ran quickly and came to the corner of a street.
There are more than a dozen teenagers waiting to receive the newly written newspaper.
"Come on, the new newspaper is out. You each receive thirty copies and sell them back."
"Now, give me all the money in my hand and pay the wages tonight."
“The more you sell, the more you earn!”
The one who transported the newspaper was a middle-aged man, who was also wearing civilian clothes, but he had rubber bands on his hands and ankles, which loosened his wrists and ankles, which looked very energetic.
"Okay!"
The boys responded at the same time, and the shouts resounded throughout the little corner.
The middle-aged man posted the newspaper one by one. When everyone finished collecting it and left and went out to sell the newspaper again, a young man stayed.
"Hmm? Is there anything wrong?"
The middle-aged man looked at the young man strangely, and the young man watched the man pack up the cart seriously.
“I thought of a faster way to sell newspapers.”
The young man looked up and said.
"Oh? What's the solution?"
The middle-aged man was surprised, but he was very interested.
"This, this, this..."
The young man attached himself to the middle-aged man's ear and spoke softly.
"Oh, this is a good method!!"
"Call everyone back immediately, and we will do it immediately!"
After listening to the young man's words, the middle-aged man was shocked and immediately prepared to implement the young man's plan.
"Hehe, OK!"
Seeing that his plan was accepted by the middle-aged man, the young man smiled and turned around and called on his companion.
After everyone was called back and informed of the new newspaper selling plan.
The people dispersed again.
This time, everyone was no longer scattered, but instead they were in groups of several people, and each found a place with a dense crowd.
The young man also brought a few people to a square where street artists performed circuses.
Seeing the crowds, the young man nodded and signaled the other companions to start preparing.
Everyone nodded, scattered and hiding.
After everything was ready, the young man picked up the newspaper in his hand and started selling.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers!"
"Three copper coins, one newspaper, three copper coins, one newspaper!"
"Today's big news, the Principality of Violet officially established a sub-church of the Holy See, and Cardinal Pablo serves as the Archbishop of the sub-church."
The young man shouted the same words as before, without any change.
The tourists watching various circuses around them looked over and some passed by, but no one wanted to buy them.
After shouting for about seven or eight minutes, a wave of boys rushed over in a crowded manner.
"I want it, I buy it."
"No, sell it to me."
"I'll ask for all three copper coins!"
"No, I'll give you five copper coins each, and you'll sell them all to me!"
.....
The crowded teenagers quarreled and kept bidding. This absurd scene immediately attracted the attention of tourists around them and began to wait and see.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, there are all, the higher the price will be rewarded!"
Soon, the young man sold out all the newspapers he had.
After selling them all, the teenagers who bought the newspapers in the young man's hands at high prices actually started to hawk in front of the young man.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers!"
"Ten copper coins per newspaper, ten copper coins per newspaper!"
"Today's big news, the Principality of Violet officially established a sub-church of the Holy See, and Cardinal Pablo serves as the Archbishop of the sub-church."
The hawking sound was absurd, which made the tourists who saw what had just happened to be confused.
"I want it, I want it!"
Another wave of teenagers rushed over and bought all the newspapers at once.
Just after buying the newspaper, these young men sold them again.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers!"
"Twenty copper coins are a newspaper, twenty copper coins are a newspaper!"
"Today's big news, the Principality of Violet officially established a sub-church of the Holy See, and Cardinal Pablo serves as the Archbishop of the sub-church."
The price of the newspaper sold this time was even higher, even ten more than the previous one.
Just when everyone thought it was over.
The young man who sold newspapers at the beginning had already retrieved dozens of newspapers and sold newspapers again.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers!"
"Five copper coins are a newspaper, and five copper coins are a newspaper!"
"Today's big news, the Principality of Violet officially established a sub-church of the Holy See, and Cardinal Pablo serves as the Archbishop of the sub-church."
The young man was hawking, selling at a price much lower than the ten copper coins and twenty copper coins next to him.
But even so, the price is two copper coins higher than the previous three copper coins.
Somehow, the value of the newspaper itself has not changed, and even the original price has increased by two copper coins.
But for some reason, the crowds around were watching the fun began to run to the stalls of young men who sold five copper coins and bought newspapers.
After buying, I went to the stalls of ten copper coins and twenty copper coins to pick and choose, saying that I was comparing the stores, and it was still the same cost-effective way just now.
After a while, someone heard the news, and suddenly a group of people who specialized in buying newspapers came to the square.
These people don’t buy ten copper coins or twenty copper coins, they just buy five copper coins when they ask the young man to buy five copper coins.
One collection is hundreds of copies.
After buying this, I didn't care about the boy who was selling ten copper coins next to me, and twenty copper coins.
I started selling newspapers with nine copper coins each in the street.
Good guy, one after another, the young man sold nearly 700 newspapers to the middle-aged man.
It also directly raised the price of newspapers.
At this time, the newspaper prices on the market had already reached nine copper coins per share.
The original cost price is only one copper coin.
If you sell three copper coins, you can earn two copper coins.
But now the middle-aged man only sells five copper coins.
I made two more copper coins out of thin air.
This is not the end.
After this group of people found that the newspaper was easy to sell, they followed the clues and found a middle-aged man.
After a conversation, the middle-aged man sold the newspaper purchase channels he had in his hands at a sky-high price of ten gold coins.
The transaction ends, and the middle-aged man earns nearly eleven gold coins a day!
