March 1st.
On this day, Mochi got up very early and waited in the Mo Mansion. Because today was the release day of Mochi's new business.
"Don't worry! I've read the Mo Magazine. There's no problem. The response will be good. " Meton was disturbed from his sleep and was very angry. But looking at the restless Mochi, he had to comfort him.
Mo Magazine was the name Meton gave to the magazine. Since it couldn't avoid the brand of Mo's, Meton simply named it Mo Magazine. This could also increase the popularity of this new thing. After all, after the exhibition of Mo's skills, curved plows and artificially hatched chickens, ducks and geese were all over Guanzhong. The popularity of Mo's had greatly increased in Guanzhong. The name Mo Magazine could greatly strengthen the impression of the audience.
"That's right. Isn't there still my Bao Man? It can also attract a lot of people. "Zi Yi said arrogantly.
Thinking of the young master's idea and Zi Yi's drawing, Mochi's heart calmed down a little. But he still looked worried. After all, it was his hard work. He didn't want to return to the situation where he had to print the medical contracts of Mo Hospital.
As the sun slowly rose, the whole Chang 'an gradually became noisy. What was different from the past was that there was a brand new hawking voice in the midst of the clamor.
"A scholar doesn't go out, but knows the news of the world! For only one copper coin, you can know the news of the world like a scholar. "
"One copper coin, one copy of Mo Magazine! The news of Guanzhong is under control. "
…
One by one, the teenagers held stacks of Mo Magazines and hawked along the streets. These were the teenagers of the Mo Family Village. After a few months of compulsory education, these teenagers couldn't write any articles. But at least they could read and read. It was just right for them to sell newspapers.
"Mo Magazine?"
A middle-aged man dressed like a merchant stopped and looked at the Mo Magazine in the hands of the Mo Family Village youth.
"Master, do you want a copy of Mo Magazine? It's all the latest news of Guanzhong. One copy is only one copper coin." The teenagers who could be chosen to sell Mo Magazine were very clever. Seeing that the middle-aged merchant was a little moved, they persuaded him.
One copper coin was the price that Meton had set for the ink magazines. Due to the scarcity of information during this period of time, each copy of the ink magazine only had a sheet of 16 open paper.
Although it was a bi-monthly publication, the content was only the content of a newspaper in the future. Meton was thinking that in the future, as the number of sources of information increased, he would gradually turn the ink magazine into a daily newspaper. Therefore, he set the price at one copper coin.
Moreover, to the people of Chang 'an, one copper coin was not much. It was just the cost of a breakfast, which was just right for the promotion of the Mo Journal.
"A copper coin?"
The middle-aged merchant couldn't help but be tempted. Merchants cared most about information. One copper coin to get information about the entire Guanzhong region was a very good price.
"Give me a copy!" The middle-aged merchant took out a copper coin and handed it to the youth. He then took a piece of ink magazine.
The middle-aged merchant took a look at the ink magazine and found that it indeed described in detail the various places in the Guanzhong region. Some of them he had already heard of, but most of them he had never heard of. He even saw many business opportunities in it.
"Sir, if you think this ink magazine is useful, you can choose to renew your subscription. If you subscribe for more than half a year, the Mo Family Village will personally deliver the ink magazine to you." The youth from the Mo Family Village kindly reminded him.
However, the middle-aged merchant seemed to have not heard it. His eyes were fixed on the front page of the ink magazine — "Even if you are related by marriage, it does not mean you are related by marriage!"
"Even if you are related by marriage, it does not mean you are related by marriage!" The middle-aged merchant trembled, his face pale.
He looked at the series of frightening numbers on the ink magazine and his whole body turned cold. Thinking of his foolish son, the middle-aged merchant's tears fell down.
He deeply understood this matter. He himself was the victim of even more related by marriage. He and his cousin had three children. Two of them died young, and the other one was mentally retarded.
"If only this ink magazine had been published 20 years earlier!" The middle-aged merchant clenched his teeth, his heart filled with endless regret.
In the Pan Family Restaurant.
In order to attract business, the restaurant owner purposely bought more than 10 copies of the ink magazine and placed one on each table.
"Even if you are related by marriage, it does not mean you are related by marriage! This is simply misleading the public with lies! "
An old man in a brocade robe held the ink magazine and said angrily. His daughter had just been engaged, and the engagement was also related by marriage. Therefore, when he saw the news, he was immediately enraged.
"I don't think so. Look at the name, it is Miracle Doctor Hua's name." The young scholar at the next table had sharp eyes and saw the author's name at the bottom of the headline.
"Miracle Doctor Hua?"
"That is Miracle Doctor Hua from Mo Hospital? I heard that Miracle Doctor Hua has the ability to regenerate broken limbs? "Someone in the restaurant exclaimed.
"How is that regenerating broken limbs? He just installed a prosthetic limb for that person." The young scholar shook his head.
"That is still an incredible medical skill. If it is Miracle Doctor Hua, then this matter is highly possible." A stout middle-aged man took a sip of wine and said.
After the large-scale expansion of Mo Hospital, coupled with Miracle Doctor Hua's medical skills, it quickly became famous in Chang 'an City. It could be said that if one wanted to practice medicine in Chang' an City, the first place they would think of would be Mo Hospital.
Perhaps the Imperial Hospital's standard was higher, but that was only for the royal family and high officials. Ordinary people would not be able to enjoy that kind of medical treatment. However, with the emergence of Mo Hospital, its huge reputation among the common people was comparable to the Imperial Hospital.
After the article was signed by Old Hua, many people were immediately convinced by it.
"Of course, there is such an example in my village. Out of four children, only two survived. One was crippled, and the other was retarded." Shopkeeper Pan said regretfully. If this news had been known earlier, it would not have been such a tragedy.
"That's right. Now that you mention it, I also remember that there are a few idiots in the west of the city who seem to be related by marriage." Very soon, everyone started to speak up one after another. All in all, there were more than a dozen cases of problems arising from the marriage between the two families.
"Is that so? Why didn't this happen to the people around me? "Someone retorted.
The young scholar pointed at Mo Magazine and said word by word, "Didn't you see what Old Hua said? There is a probability of this happening. You are just lucky."
"Old Zheng! Don't worry, your daughter and nephew might be an exception. Moreover, there are only a few families that are affected. "The stout middle-aged man comforted the old man in embroidered clothes.
"Hmph, even if they are lucky, Old Zheng's daughter is only 13 years old! Look at Old Hua's statistics. The dangers of early marriage are even greater than the dangers of marriage. Aren't they afraid of losing two lives? "The young scholar snorted.
For a moment, everyone's attention was attracted by the danger of increasing marriage. They hurriedly looked down and their faces immediately turned ugly. If it was said that increasing marriage was relatively difficult to detect, cases of early marriage and difficult childbirth were even more common.
"Maybe Old Zheng's daughter is fine?" The stout middle-aged man whispered guiltily.
"Bullshit! Even if there is a little risk, I will not let my daughter take the risk. "The old man in embroidered clothes said angrily. The food and wine had already been served. He stopped eating and hurried downstairs.
"No matter the price, this marriage has to be broken!" The old man in embroidered clothes only had one thought.
Things like this happened in many areas of Guanzhong. Those who had already been engaged immediately broke off the engagement. Those who had this intention did not dare to mention it again.
