The reason lies in cost.
The first issue of the "Carron Times" newspaper is very limited, because all newspapers are printed on parchment paper, which is costly. If it wasn't for the orcs attacking Ivorta and leaving too many sheep for logistical use, I think Rhodes could not find it. Get enough ingredients to put.
Therefore, the first issue of Milno's newspaper was found by the housekeeper who spent money from other places, because there were thirty or forty copies in the entire city.
The newspaper angered Milnor. He realized that he couldn't be so passive, so he found someone a week ago to publish a similar newspaper in the same way, called "Royal Weekly".
The above content is basically refuting the content of the first issue of "The Karen Times", and also praises the great achievements of Charles II, which naturally pleases the emperor and receives many awards.
But Milnor also paid nearly 1,000 gold coins for the issuance of the 2,000 pieces of parchment paper. The reward for selecting a large number of people to copy the contents of the newspaper is not a small number. It may be easy to find labor in this era It is rare to write. Hiring a group of noble children to copy newspapers is definitely not cheap ...
What surprised him, however, was that the material for the second issue of The Karen Times changed. This kind of light-weight and uniform-colored newspaper, as long as the housekeeper goes out for a walk, he can see it from the residents and nobles who know the word.
In contrast, due to the difficulty of copying, "Royal Weekly" has just produced 500 copies in the second issue, which is not an order of magnitude compared with the circulation of more than 5,000 copies ...
In less than three days, when the third issue of "The Karen Times" was announced in advance, the housekeeper finally realized ... something seemed to change from quantitative to qualitative.
Almost everyone in the entire street held the brand-new "The Karen Times". Although most of them used it to wipe their butts, it cannot be denied that the popularity of this newspaper has far exceeded everyone's expectations!
The number of newspapers that can be seen in the Dan Bergen Territory exceeds 10,000. This has not yet been counted in other parts of the kingdom, but according to previous experience, its total circulation of more than 30,000 is a matter of fact.
The publication of the "Royal Weekly" was from the beginning to the end of Mirno's money, in order to minimize the impact of such newspapers on the nobility, his primary goal is to show the noble class, not to consider the civilians, But he didn't have that much resources to make so many newspapers.
But now? Newspapers from Everta were dumped into the various territories of the kingdom as if they did not have money. The effect was to in the cowshed, and farmers could be heard talking eloquently about how high the walls of Everta and the soldiers How thick is your armor ...
Milno had a ridiculous feeling that thousands of gold coins were all thrown away, and what made him most unacceptable was the gap in newspaper content.
Although "Royal Weekly" wrote as many articles as possible to whitewash the peace, the content was really colorful and dry goods were scarce. At a glance at the past, there were less than three sentences of really useful content. Most of the other articles are bragging for the emperor. There are no dry goods at all, only a lot of adjectives are left.
In contrast, in the "Carron Age", each issue and article has a clear point of view and theme. It is supported by data that looks authentic and even indicates the source. Even if you are not interested in the article, you can get it at a glance. Plenty of information you never knew.
And half a month later, the influence of "The Karen Times" among the people has begun to appear, and more than seven nobles in Mirno's team have chosen to withdraw, which made him who was originally inadequate enough to almost become a polished rod. commander!
You know, he announced that he would let the team set off five days ago, but those other aristocrats in the team delayed for a variety of reasons ... until today, there are signs of a collapse in advance!
How is Mirno angry? How could he have imagined that such a paper-filled newspaper would have such a big influence ...
"At least the Viper Cross is still on my side ..."
He tried to breathe smoothly and said to the housekeeper: "Give me the gear and bring all the soldiers who can take it. It seems that I don't appear in front of them. These guys don't plan to move at all."
Milnor didn't realize how stupid the behavior of this war layman was, he just continued to ask: "The war has been characterized as a" conquest of war ", and the wizard will naturally have the obligation to fight, I will contact When are those mages in place? "
The question made the housekeeper pause for a moment. He lowered his head and whispered, "Master ... I contacted all the Magisters, but they ... were unable to speak."
Mirno frowned and said, "They can't come if there's something, can't they send a dozen apprentices to help?"
"Master, they mean ... all the mages will not participate in this war. I asked them why, and said what agreement was just signed with Everta, and they must comply."
"Fuck his shit!"
Milnor left the door, and his face turned blue and ordered the carriage to go to the imperial city. He didn't believe it. This kind of mage who still signed an agreement with the enemy at the time of combat, what kind of qualifications refused to serve the country!
"Quick! Record your data!"
Magister Crohn had no serious look at all at this time. He stared at the white ice crystals on the front of the array in front of him, and instructed the laboratory assistants around him.
Concentrated magicians don't care about the passage of time. His experiments have been carried out for 18 hours. From beginning to end, he just drank a few sips of water and stuffed two loaves of bread casually. It is naturally because of the experimental progress now It was so fast and smooth that he didn't even think about it ...
For this reason, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com's biggest contributor is naturally the "charged spar" that has just been transported from Everta.
"Tutor, the recording is complete!"
With a tired face but not dare to be slack, Verda responded, and finally Crohn exhaled with satisfaction:
"Whew ... well, the experiment went well. Let's take a rest today."
Crohn turned his head and glanced out the window before realizing that it was midnight, and he waved, "I went to the restaurant for dinner, and today I worked hard."
In a low cheer, Crohn came carefully to the front of the circle and took out the charged crystals that had not been exhausted. He took a few glances and put it back into the box gently. in.
"Teacher, that spar still has energy? Shouldn't these be discarded according to standard processing procedures ..."
An assistant next to him asked strangely, but Crohn gave him a glance: "Abandoned ?! Do you know how much it cost me to get these spar ..."
