Newsboys were a newly developed profession.
Originally, the World Economic News Paper was not updated daily. Most of the time, it would gather up the news it had accumulated and print and publish it at a specific time.
That time was usually once a week, nothing more.
But in truth, the World Economic News Paper had never said it would update every Monday or every Friday.
Things were different now. Manpower had been converted into electricity, and electricity had brought leap-like progress to the Revolutionary Army's basic industries.
Furthermore, after joining the Revolutionary Army, the World Economic News Paper never lacked news. Thus, in core Revolutionary Army cities such as Jaya Island, they began printing a certain number of newspapers every day.
They then handed them to newsboys to distribute and sell. The price was even lower than the usual World Economic News Paper, due to the need for rapid sales, recovering costs, clearing inventory, and the timeliness of the news.
And in this era lacking entertainment, people were naturally very interested in local gossip papers and news.
That was also why merchants gathered here.
Ordinary people could only find a little comfort and relaxation in these entertainment tabloids, but merchants could discover business opportunities and ways to make money in them.
