LOL: I am a bad prince in Demacia.

After a lunch, everyone came outside to enjoy the scenery after the rain.

At this time, many of the dark clouds in the sky have dispersed, but the sky is not that bright. Because of the rain, the air cannot be heated even if it wants to.

On the contrary, there is a coolness. After a heavy rain, you can see traces of water everywhere, as if the world has been washed away.

The atmosphere was great, and the moment was surprisingly peaceful. Everyone looked at the scenery in front of them, and no one hated rainy days.

It's just a pity that I can't practice on the bicycle.

There is water everywhere now and it is wet. If you fall during practice, your clothes will definitely be dirty.

The practice plan has been postponed, and I don’t know what to do at the moment.

Lu Qi thought for a while and said, "Pack up and get ready to go to the street."

In fact, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.

After all, it is easy to lose track of time when playing mahjong. Several girls were not convinced, so they pulled Lu Qi to play a few more rounds.

Lunch time was naturally delayed for a while.

In addition, it takes a while to prepare lunch, and noon is already gone after eating.

Lu Qi went to the street to do some shopping. Recently, there are more people eating at home, and the ingredients are being used up very quickly, so a new batch needs to be brought in.

He is also planning to purchase some medicinal materials this time, including silver needles for acupuncture.

There were a lot of things to buy, and he also wanted to visit Navis.

After making the decision, we were ready to leave.

Sona didn't want to go to a crowded place, so she wanted to stay at home.

Fiona thought for a while and decided to stay with her.

So the only people traveling were Luqi, Lux, Kashina and Yuerna.

But just to purchase some things, of course, there is no need to send out all the staff.

"set off!"

After some preparations, Lu Qi gave an order and the carriage started to move directly.

On the way, Lu Qi opened the carriage curtain and looked outside.

The street drainage system in Wangdu is very good, but the roads were wet. It rained heavily this morning, but it basically did not cause any traffic obstruction.

However, the drainage system is excellent, partly due to the high terrain of the royal capital. The city almost stands on the side of a mountain, and the buildings are taller than the other.

It's just that because the royal capital is so big, it's not easy to feel it. For example, the palace is actually built on a high point.

On the streets of Wangdu, you can see the entrance to an underground waterway basically every few streets. These underground waterways are connected to a large river, and this river is connected to the sea.

Even though it had just rained, there were still people coming and going on the streets at this moment.

Lu Qi also saw a newspaper. At a street stall, a customer was sitting there, obviously holding a newspaper in his hand and reading it.

He turned back and asked Kashina: "How are the newspaper sales recently?"

The newspaper started publishing near the Church of the Illuminator. It was published free of charge for three days, and then started a paid model yesterday.

Today is already the second day.

Hearing Lu Qi's question, Kashina replied: "During the period when newspapers were free, many people came, and the supply exceeded demand basically every morning. People who were nearby came by themselves without waiting for us to distribute them."

"But after changing to the paid model, I can feel that customers' desire to buy newspapers has dropped significantly. Although they can still be sold out every day, the speed is much slower."

When she said that, her tone was a little worried.

I wonder if something is wrong.

If this continues, a large number of newspapers will be printed every day and they will not be sold, and no one will buy them, which will result in a huge loss.

Lu Qi smiled after hearing this: "It's okay, it's normal."

After all, no one's money comes from the strong wind. When something is related to money, everyone who sees it will give it serious consideration.

There is also an obvious reason why residents have less desire to buy newspapers.

That's the content.

The first few issues of the newspaper, which were published for free, recorded some trivial things that the Illuminators collected from the people.

If it had always been like this, people would still be able to buy it freshly in the beginning.

At the end of the day, I’m afraid no one is willing to spend two copper coins to buy a piece of paper and come back to read a bunch of nonsense.

So hot spot support is needed at this time.

Just like those celebrities in previous lives, they are existences that are out of reach for ordinary people, so whenever something big or small happens to them, the whole world can't wait to pay attention.

The same is true in this world.

It's just that the celebrities have been replaced by nobles, and the latter are also out of reach for common people.

Not to mention the great nobles. It is a great honor for a commoner to occasionally speak to a great noble.

When nobility becomes a gimmick, isn't it a hot topic?

There is also official information, which has never been a problem. Lu Qi just has to go and talk to his aunt.

But this will have to wait until the day when the newspaper is officially published.

The second is marketing.

For a product, aside from the quality itself, the most important thing is its marketing.

Just like perfume, owning a bottle of perfume is synonymous with sophistication for women. With this marketing, all women are rushing to buy it.

The same goes for newspapers. When everyone wakes up in the morning and reads a newspaper, it becomes a trend of the times. If you don't buy a newspaper, you are out of tune.

This is the mass effect.

Of course, this is marketing for the masses, and there are several other ways of marketing. There is no need to talk about them one by one now.

Therefore, Kashina's worries are unnecessary.

There was no problem, it was just that Lu Qi's steps had not yet been implemented.

Looking at Lux who was happily holding a bunch of candied haws next to her, Lu Qi smiled.

But it’s almost time to put it into practice.

Lux, seeing Lu Qi's gaze, tilted her head in confusion.

She didn't realize what cruel things would happen next for her.

After some time.

As the carriage slowly stopped, Urna in front said: "Your Highness, the Church of the Illuminator has arrived."

Hearing this, the three of them got out of the carriage.

Lu Qi hasn't been to the Illuminator Church for a while. Now that the newspaper is getting closer and closer, he naturally wants to take a look.

Moreover, the children in the church will also be the main force in delivering newspapers in the future.

As soon as we got off the carriage, we could see a lot of people gathered around the church.

The children were there, learning to ride bicycles in pairs, regardless of whether the ground was dirty or not. They were not afraid if they fell, they got up and continued learning.

Playing and learning at the same time, very happy.

More than one bicycle was made, but one was sent to Lu Qi.

The rest was naturally distributed to the three Illuminator churches and some adults who had been found in advance and were willing to deliver newspapers.

These are basically people helped by the Illuminator Church. They have some physical disabilities and are not suitable for most jobs.

But learning to ride a bicycle is not difficult, so it is within their capabilities.
