Chương 322: Left Hanging

Yan Liqiang sat on the master seat in one of the manor's lounges, looking at the silent group hanging their heads dejectedly. He smiled and took a sip of his tea before he broke the silence. "There's no need to feel so down, everyone! Our newspaper is a new thing.

If we can sell more than three hundred copies today, we may be able to sell thirty thousand or even a hundred thousand in the future…!"

Quite a few them were trying to get a discount…" Xu Enda reported awkwardly.
