Why did he charge for reading novels?

The reason why novels were charged was because novels, as a literary work, required the creator to create and conceive, as well as spend time and energy to describe and shape the characters and plot. In addition, the novel also required a certain amount of technical support and maintenance costs, such as production and updating content. Charging fees could also motivate authors to provide better quality works for readers, while also protecting the rights of readers to ensure that they could obtain the content of the novel fairly. In addition, charging for novels could also promote the healthy development of the novel industry and provide readers with a better reading experience and service.
