Under the morning light, a few scholars walked to the bookstore next to the State Academy of Literature. Although Holy Road and Wen Bao had been released yesterday, not everyone had bought them. The bookstore of the Academy of Literature would usually take down the last issue of Holy Road and Wen Bao after a month.
Yang Lin was an ordinary scholar, over 20 years old. Whether it was his family background, appearance, or other aspects, there was nothing special about him.
He had been in his hometown a few days ago and had only returned last night. He had not met any booksellers, and he wanted to read Holy Road and Wen Bao, so he had come early in the morning to buy them and go back for breakfast.
He was at the front of the line, and there were only a dozen people behind him. At the same time yesterday, there were at least 3,000 people gathered here.
When the bookstore officially started selling, Yang Lin, as usual, took out a few brass coins and said loudly, "One copy of Holy Road, one copy of Wen Bao!"
But no one answered.
Yang Lin frowned. He found that the six bookstore clerks who were supposed to be collecting money were all holding something that was made up of more than ten large sheets of paper. Everyone's expression was incomparably wonderful and constantly changing.
Yang Lin secretly thought that the bookstore clerks nowadays were becoming more and more outrageous, but he couldn't say it out loud. He could only lightly pat the wooden counter in front of him and loudly say, "A copy of Holy Road, and a copy of Wen Bao!"
But the six clerks still turned a deaf ear.
Yang Lin's face darkened as he looked at the six clerks quietly. He had already made up his mind. After buying Holy Road and Wen Bao, he would go to the Academy of Literature to report these clerks. They were simply looking down on him.
An Old Show at the back of the line said angrily, "You can't even sell on time. What a scandal!"
A kind-looking scholar suddenly shouted, "What are you looking at? It seems to be a new kind of book? "
At this time, a clerk said casually, "This is Min Bao. It was just released today."
"Min Pao?" The fire in Yang Lin's heart was extinguished by doubt. He turned his head and looked at the customer behind him. He did not know what that was.
"What's' Min Pao '?" The Old Show shouted.
"'Min Bao' is a newspaper jointly founded by Fang Xusheng, the officials of Xiangzhou, and the Fang Family Library. It's equivalent to 'Wen Bao' or the local court bulletin, but it's somewhat different from 'Wen Bao' or the local court bulletin. I can't say for sure. Aiya, sorry, sorry, I was too engrossed! I'm sorry everyone! " The clerk hurriedly apologized with a smile. After saying that, he took out a copper coin from his pocket and put it in the cash box. Then, he carefully folded the Min Pao and put it into his clothes from his chest.
Seeing the clerk's action, all the scholars present instinctively realized that this Min Pao was not ordinary, not to mention that it was related to Fang Xusheng.
Yang Lin asked, "Is this' Min Pao 'one copper coin per copy?"
"Yes, 'Min Pao' is very cheap. It's said to be at cost price. It's just that the characters are different from normal ones. I think it's called … Right, it's called 'Song Style'. It's said that Fang Xusheng created it specifically for 'Min Pao'. He even had the Hall of Works send people to modify all the printing workshops in Xiangzhou. I'm not used to looking at it. It's square and has lost the essence of calligraphy. But after looking at it for a while, I realized that it's very suitable for printing. "
The clerk nagged as he handed the Holy Road and Wen Bao to Yang Lin.
Yang Lin's heart skipped a beat. He took out another copper coin and said, "Give me a copy of 'Min Pao'."
The clerk picked up a copy of 'Min Pao', held it with both hands, and respectfully handed it to Yang Lin. He smiled and said, "You're the first scholar in Baling City … no, in Xiangzhou, and even in the entire human race to buy 'Min Pao'."
Yang Lin smiled. He did not care about being first or second. He was about to take the 'Min Pao' and leave, but he held it with both hands. His feet seemed to have grown roots as he stared at the front page of 'Min Pao' without moving.
"This …" Yang Lin did not expect that 'Min Pao' would contain a letter of challenge from Fang Yun to Gyeongo's Xuanwu Army.
Seeing such an important matter, Yang Lin completely forgot about the people behind him and continued to read with his head lowered.
"Eh? What are you doing? Hurry up and leave after buying it. " The Old Show complained and walked around Yang Lin to buy 'Holy Road' and 'Wen Bao'. As he walked, he inadvertently glanced at the 'Min Pao' in Yang Lin's hands and immediately widened his eyes.
"What! Fang Xusheng issued a letter of challenge to the Xuanwu Army? "The Old Show shouted.
"What?"
The people at the back did not care about lining up. They immediately rushed behind Yang Lin and stretched their necks to look at the 'Min Pao's' front page. The people at the back read while jumping.
"This' Min Pao 'is amazing!"
"Looks like Fang Xusheng's letter of challenge only appeared in 'Min Pao'. If there was news before, the entire human race would have known about it."
"Interesting! Give me a copy of 'Min Pao'! "
"Give me one too!"
The rest of the people shouted to the shop assistant.
"No rush, everyone has one!" The shop assistant smiled and began to sell copies of 'Min Pao'.
Soon, the first dozen people each had a copy of 'Min Pao'. Their hands were like pancakes as they stood in front of the bookstore and flipped through it.
"So something like this happened in Xiang Province. 'Wen Bao' doesn't record it."
"Eh? So this is what the Demon Realm is like. There are even poisonous dragons. I really didn't know about them before. "
"There's actually a country-level exam guide written by Dong Wencong? When I first read it, I thought it was a cliché, but when I read it carefully, I feel that it's extremely insightful. As expected of a Hanlin! If I had read this earlier, I would have passed the country-level exam ten years ago! "
"Hehe, look at this Jingguo article. No, it says it's news. Although it doesn't say it directly, it's obvious that the Left Minister is obstructing Fang Xusheng! Mount Liu, that traitor, should really be locked up in a three-foot cage! "
The bookstore of the Zhou Wen Institute always opened early, but there were not many people who came to buy books on the second day of the eighth lunar month. Even the booksellers rarely came early.
However, the main street in front of the Zhou Wen Institute was one of the busiest streets in Baling City, and even in Xiang Province. Even at six o 'clock in the morning, there were still many people passing by.
Those people casually glanced around and saw a dozen people holding large sheets of paper and reading in front of the bookstore. Some people were just curious and continued walking, but others suspected that it was something new and walked over to ask.
Slowly, more and more people gathered in front of the Zhou Wen Institute.
At first, everyone was just reading 'Min Bao'. Later, those who had read 'Min Bao' split into different groups to discuss the content they liked. Some discussed Xiang Province's news, some discussed Jingguo's current politics, and some exchanged pointers on country-level exams.
Gradually, more and more people came, and everyone who left would talk about 'Min Bao' to their friends.
As time passed, people from all over Baling City walked towards the bookstore. The booksellers also smelled a business opportunity and ran with their carts.
The same scene played out in all the cities in Xiang Province.
In just two hours, the number of people gathered in front of the bookstores of the Zhou Wen Institute had surpassed yesterday. It was a sea of people.
For a moment, everyone in Xiang Province was talking about 'Min Bao'. Those who didn't know about 'Min Bao' couldn't even talk to others.
'Min Bao' was completely popular.
