Chapter 257 Newspaper(1/2)
Qi Jingchen's sudden change of attitude made Connie a little stunned. Although she was very likely to have hope because of something that was already desperate, she quickly analyzed some things: "There is something wrong with Nie Yi's magic core?"
She had observed Nie Yi and found that his magic core was very stable, but now it seems that it may not be really very stable.
Connie calmed down at this time. She glanced at Nie Yi and said, "Although the light magic is recognized as the most suitable magic for treating injuries, if the wood magic is used well, it will also be of great benefit to people, and the tree of life is even more unique. This is the treasure left by the goddess of life to our elves. It can nurture life, repair various human damage, and nourish the magic core... For related records, you can search for it in the library of the Central Academy, and you should find some."
The elves are all bred by the tree of life. The tree of life can nurture elves with magic cores, so of course there are ways to deal with magic cores.
"How did this branch come about? What happened between you and the elves?" Qi Jingchen asked again.
Connie didn't want to say this at first, but after thinking about it, she finally said: "I used to be the best among the younger generation of the Elf Clan and one of the candidates for the Elf Queen. However, I often focus on taking care of my appearance, so my strength is not outstanding, and the elders also think that I can't become the Elf Queen. Perhaps because of this, many years ago, they arranged for me to do something, and that was at that time, I discovered a shocking secret... The tree of life belonging to the Elf Clan is about to die."
Connie's expression became very plain as she told her: "I tried to convince the elders to make plans early, but they didn't believe me. The Elf Queen at that time, my former competitor, wanted to kill me, but the Tree of Life itself knew this very well, so she condensed its energy on a branch and asked me to leave, and since then, I have never returned."
"How are the elves' attitude towards you?" Qi Jingchen asked again.
"They didn't know that I took away this branch. After all, if this branch did not sprout, it would not emit any energy... They always thought that it was a dark creature that took away the branches of the tree of life." Connie said, with a slightly awkward expression: "But in fact, the so-called dark creature was made by me..., and then I also took advantage of the fact that the elves discovered that the branches that could be used as seeds that were suddenly condensed by the tree of life were lost, and they escaped when they searched together."
Connie didn't need to tell lies at this time. Qi Jingchen believed it a little and asked again: "Since this branch is so important, why would you give it to me at will?"
"Because I can't make it grow up." Connie looked at the branches of the tree of life in Qi Jingchen's hand, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes: "I used all the methods I know, but I couldn't make it sprout. So I gave it to you. There are many magical places on you. I think you might be able to find a way. Of course, the most important thing is that this branch cannot be destroyed at all..."
Don’t think that the branches of the Iron Tree are the hardest plants in the world. In fact, the branches of the Tree of Life are!
The tree of life is planted by the goddess of life and watered with her own blood. It is even more advanced than a magical tool like the Mirror of Light. The tree of life is made of the branches of the tree of life condensed by its own vitality and may not be able to be smashed with the artifact.
Qi Jingchen already knew all the news he wanted to know, and then said: "There is another last question, how can I make this branch sprout without anyone discovering it?"
After Qi Jingchen finished speaking, he happened to see Connie's surprised expression and frowned and said, "Don't say anything to ask me to send it back. If you really want to send it back, maybe we will both encounter trouble readings." Connie has been hiding outside for so many years, and even though the branches of the tree of life will not be discovered, Qi Jingchen will never believe it if there is no reason.
Connie thought of her situation at this time and hurriedly promised: "I definitely won't tell me!" Her current situation is absolutely impossible to go back.
After the two sides reached a consensus, Connie immediately talked about the way that the tree of life cannot be discovered.
There are many ways to avoid being discovered by people, such as staying in a house surrounded by mountain vines, or putting the tree of life in your own field.
The tree of life is difficult to raise and is very difficult to raise. No one even knows how to grow it. But if it is easy to raise, it is easy to raise. As long as the vitality does not dissipate, it can grow well no matter where it stays. Even if it is stuffed into the space ring, there will be no problem at all.
Qi Jingchen took out the life tree inside his space ring, and the tender buds on it were still green and full of vitality.
Qi Jingchen did not tell Connie about the little light spot. After he took out the branches, he just controlled all the little light spots around him to enter the branches.
The tender buds on the branch suddenly became bigger.
Connie's eyes turned red as she watched the bud grow bigger.
She waited for so many years and finally saw the branch sprouting!
"You must take good care of it," Connie said.
"I can." Qi Jingchen nodded.
After being guaranteed, Connie left quickly and did not stay. However, Qi Jingchen opened his own field, inserted branches into his own field to absorb small spots of light, and then began to write the first newspaper in Yell's history.
He had asked someone to find some news, first sorted it out and organized the language, and then planned the locations of each news on the page. After finding that there were several empty positions in the last page, he added a few more jokes.
For example, at a banquet, a beautiful lady kept staring at a man and kept watching. The man was a little worried about being seen, so he stepped forward to ask if he had offended the lady. However, the lady said, "No, you didn't offend me, I stared at you, just because you look like my husband." The man asked curiously, "You are already married at such a young age?" The lady smiled and said, "No, I'm not married yet."
There are many similar jokes or jokes on earth and are very common. There are still many mobile phones brought by Qi Jingchen and Nie Yi. Qi Jingchen flipped through them and added a few to them.
Qi Jingchen printed a total of 100 copies of this newspaper. After printing, he asked his subordinates to give it to the person he invited to attend the banquet.
When Harris heard that Qi Jingchen had brought him a newspaper, he immediately asked someone to take it over.
After hearing Qi Jingchen explain the newspaper, he knew that it was a good thing, but relying solely on Qi Jingchen's description, he could not understand the exact situation of the newspaper, so it would be better to see it with your own eyes.
A piece of folded paper was quickly sent up. Harris took the paper and saw the first side of it that he had just known about something that happened in the Holy City that he had just learned not long ago. Yesterday, in a restaurant in the Holy City, two magicians had a conflict and finally damaged the restaurant. When the two were halfway through, they were suppressed by a magician in the restaurant, and then they were burdened with huge debts.
Harris had known about this for a long time, and he didn't think there was anything strange about it anymore, but after turning back, there were some things he didn't know about.
The newspapers are all very ordinary news that everyone knows, and sometimes they use pseudonyms, so there is no need to worry about offending people, let alone some of the things that follow, which tell some of the trivial news about ordinary people.
Harris was originally not interested in the lives of ordinary people, but for some reason he didn't hate reading these. He found it quite interesting when he saw a short story published in it. When he saw the jokes at the end, he couldn't help laughing and reads;.
After laughing, Harris was stunned. This was the first time he knew that he actually liked to see these things...
However, it was good to look at these. At least he immediately knew a lot of things after reading such a newspaper.
Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Harris pondered.
In fact, not only Harris likes newspapers, but everyone else who got the newspaper also likes newspapers very much. There is no other reason, mainly because Yell has too few entertainment activities.
There are not many other things that magicians and warriors can do except practice or do things related to cultivation, or go out to take risks.
Those who like to socialize among these people will not reject attending various banquets or communicating with others, but those who are not interested in these things have almost nothing to enjoy.
Newspapers are not a high-end thing, but on the one hand they can understand what’s happening outside, and on the other hand they can also be used as a pastime. Who wouldn’t like it?
Even if they will keep it next to you after reading it, and even if they don’t like some of the contents, they definitely have a good impression of newspapers.
They basically expressed their love for the newspaper, but Qi Jingchen was not satisfied with the newspaper and made some improvements.
A few days later, the first newspaper of the entire Yell was released.
Qi Jingchen had already found some children from the West District in advance and asked them to help him sell newspapers. He sold them two hours in the morning before going to school. Then, for every two newspapers were sold, he would give them a copper coin. Therefore, early in the morning, some newspaper boys suddenly appeared in the streets and alleys of the Holy City.
"Newspapers! Sell newspapers! Want to know the royal news of the Rose Empire? Want to know what happened to the fire in the south of the Holy City yesterday? Buy a newspaper! Each one only costs five copper coins!"
The children's voices were very crisp, and they spoke loudly, attracting the attention of many people.
"Uncle, do you recognize words? If you recognize words, you can buy a newspaper to read it!" I found that someone looked at him, and a child immediately said.
Among the people born and raised in the Holy City, although the vast majority of people are illiterate, many people are literate. This uncle once learned to recognize words from his grandmother, an old man who worked as a maid who cared for a lady.
Although he recognized words, he didn't have time to read anything, so he occasionally looked at the signs on the roadside. Now he heard that he could buy a newspaper full of words with just five copper coins. After hesitating for a moment, he paid for it.
After buying it, he felt a little regretful, worried that he would not understand the things in the newspaper, but he didn't want to just take a casual glance and he understood one thing.
There was a news in a corner of the newspaper that someone saw a "corpse" on the roadside yesterday. He told the patrol team in panic, but it was found that it was not a corpse at all, but an alcoholic.
The news was written quite seriously, but when the man saw it, he laughed happily. He put the newspaper away and decided to go back, he read the above content to his family. Everyone would have fun and have fun.
There were many people who bought newspapers like him. A warrior was very interested in the royal family of the Rose Empire. After buying the newspaper, he immediately went to read the first page. It said that Eric, the wanted prince of the Rose Empire, appeared in a small town some time ago, and attracted many people to catch it. As a result, those people failed to catch the prince, but many people were robbed by him.
Some people were also interested in the fire in the south of the Holy City. The reason why the flames burned was that a magician forgot to boil potions and went to bed. The unlucky magician was not at the level of the one who was still injured in the fire. Of course, the flames were quickly extinguished by a water magician living next to him;.
"It turns out that it caught fire because of this! I didn't know it before!"
"I thought there was a fire magician experimenting with a new magic!"
"That Prince Eric is very smart, but that Queen must be very depressed."
"Although Eric is smart, he is too bad. In order not to let his whereabouts be exposed, he killed a woman and her child!"
...
People who bought newspapers or read them together all started to talk about them, which made those who did not buy newspapers a little confused, so: "What are you all talking about?"
"We're talking about things in the newspaper." Humane.
"newspaper?"
"Yes, it's the morning newspaper. I heard that it was issued by Lord Qi Jingchen, just to let us know more about things in this world."
"There is something like this? I'll buy it right away!"
Qi Jingchen originally thought that the sales volume of newspapers would not be too good on the first day of the year, so he didn't distribute much to the children, but he left a lot of them in the Chenguang Restaurant, intending to give one to everyone who came to buy wine.
However, it turned out that he was wrong.
There is no such thing as being difficult to sell at all. In fact, newspapers are very, very easy to sell. All the newspapers in their hands are sold out in a short time. In the end, some people went to Chenguang Restaurant to buy wine in order to read the newspaper...
The newspaper's response was really good. The next day, Qi Jingchen immediately increased the printing volume, but the result was still in short supply.
This situation made Qi Jingchen extremely satisfied. He happened to be in need of small white spots recently, so he simply used a little trick to describe the current situation in the West District and the role he played in it. After he did this, he really got a lot of small spots on this day.
Unfortunately, the newspapers sold well and got a lot of niche spots, but the branch of the Tree of Life grew very slowly, and so far, it has only grown a leaf.
It now looks like a dead branch with leaves growing alone, without even the appearance of a tree. It is unknown how long it will take to grow into a tree that can take resin.
Looking at the branch and sighed, Qi Jingchen put it in his space ring. At this moment, someone came outside and found him and told him that the Sixth Elder had something to look for him.
"The Sixth Elder asked you to sort out the things you need to run a newspaper and get him a copy tomorrow." The person who came to pass the message said.
"I understand. Please tell the Sixth Elder and tell him that I will do it well." Qi Jingchen said.
The Sixth Elder came to ask for a complete set of equipment, and he wanted to be confident, and Qi Jingchen did not feel angry or unwilling to do so.
After all, Yel is a place where he speaks with his fists, and it is impossible for the Sixth Elder to steal his business. At most, he discovered the benefits of the newspaper and planned to use it to promote the teachings of the God of Light.
Qi Jingchen asked someone to take out a set of printing equipment, and then put some movable type in it, planning to use it for the Sixth Elder tomorrow.
He didn't take many things. If the Sixth Elder wanted to print newspapers, he needed to make more equipment and movable types, so Qi Jingchen simply wrote down the production method of these things and planned to give them to the Sixth Elder tomorrow.
After making preparations, Qi Jingchen went out and planned to visit the West District again and gain some niche points.
Because the newspaper just mentioned the big change in the West District, some people from other parts of the Holy City came to the West District to play. When they saw Qi Jingchen, they were extremely excited, and some people immediately fell to the ground and reads;
Qi Jingchen smiled and blessed each of them, but he still gained a lot of small spots of light. He simply took out the branches of the tree of life and pinned them in his hand so that he could give these white spots to this branch.
He supported the field, completely surrounded the branch, and let the breath of life above leak out at all, because in this way, no one discovered the magic of this branch.
No one would have thought that this inconspicuous branch is the most powerful plant in the world, the tree of life.
Not long after, Qi Jingchen walked to the near the West District Church and met Old Norman.
