"Eh~? Renbiao, what are you doing here?"
As soon as Li Zexuan came out of the workshop, he saw Wang Renbiao and the little frost beauty Leng Yuyao walking towards this side. He quickly stepped forward and asked.
Wang Renbiao smiled and cupped his hands and said: "I just went to the Li Mansion to find something for Sir, but I was told that you were in the workshop. It happened that my matter was also related to the Qiquge Workshop, so Yuyao and I went to look for it. .”
Li Zexuan's heart moved, and he secretly wondered if someone sent him a pillow just as he was about to sleep
He quickly greeted calmly: "Haha, since Renbiao has something to do, just follow me in and talk! Sanbao, go get someone to make tea!"
… …
"Sir, to be honest, I am here this time just for the "Datang Daily". This newspaper is now popular in Chang'an, and we have a very good basis for cooperation before. Why don't you ask the workshop to increase printing?" How about providing me with a batch of newspapers and introducing them to other states and counties?"
After finding a room and a few people sitting down, Wang Renbiao got straight to the point.
Li Zexuan felt happy. What he had just guessed was indeed correct. Wang Renbiao was just in luck. However, his face remained calm and he just pretended to be confused and asked:
"Oh? Ren Piao is also interested in newspapers?"
Wang Renbiao smiled and said: "Of course, the potential value of the newspaper is very huge. I have read three issues of the newspaper myself, and the content is indeed very exciting!"
Li Zexuan said: "Haha, how many newspapers do you want, Renbiao? To tell you the truth, two traveling merchants from Chang'an bought 40,000 newspapers from the workshop this morning."
There was no surprise in Wang Renbiao's eyes, and he said: "I have heard of these two traveling businessmen, and I guess they just want to make a short-term profit. Sir, what you need is long-term cooperation, which I can satisfy.
I can buy the first batch of 100,000 copies, and then I can increase the number as appropriate based on the specific sales volume in each state and county. These newspapers will be continuously delivered to other states and counties through our Wang family’s business channels. "
Li Zexuan was surprised. This is a real big deal. It costs 100,000 copies, and that's just the first batch. Are all the children of aristocratic families so rich
"Renbiao, aren't you afraid that so many newspapers won't be sold and will rot in your hands?"
"Haha, the performance of the newspaper has been tested by the people of Chang'an. I don't believe it. Things that can become popular in Chang'an will not be popular in other states and counties. The previous scooters and Shenxian Zui were all popular after we introduced them to other places. It has attracted the attention of many people.”
The reason why Li Zexuan likes to cooperate with Wang Renbiao is because he is decisive, wise and straightforward. After listening to Wang Renbiao's words, he said with a smile:
"Okay! Since Renbiao is so cheerful, I will also be cheerful. The workshop will sell you at least 100,000 copies of the newspaper at the price of nine cents for two copies. Don't bargain with me. The two businessmen in the morning , but they were all bought at the original price of five cents a piece."
Wang Renbiao looked overjoyed and said happily: "Okay, then Wang, I would like to thank Sir! But can Sir, please start supplying me with the goods from the first issue of "Datang Daily"? At the back of this newspaper is "A Mortal's Story of Cultivation of Immortality" "It's really wonderful. If it's not complete, I'm afraid people in other states and counties will be dissatisfied!"
When Li Zexuan heard what Wang Renbiao said, he knew that most of the time this guy was also a fan of novels, so he nodded and said with a smile: "Yeah, no problem!"
Wang Renbiao suddenly said mysteriously: "Sir, do you know who Pi Xiake is?"
Li Zexuan was startled and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Do you have something to do with him?"
"Well, I just want him to write a few more chapters every day. Now there are only three chapters a day. Those of us who read novels are really having a hard time waiting!"
Li Zexuan broke into a sweat and encountered a reader urging him to update. What kind of rush is this? Fortunately, when I wrote the novel, I used a pen name. Otherwise, would I be kidnapped by readers when I went out in the future
… … ….
The next day, early morning.
"Newspapers are being sold, newspapers are being sold, the freshly released "Datang Daily", today's headlines, shocking cases! The airtight mansion is heavily guarded, why did the beautiful young woman die mysteriously and suddenly in broad daylight?! Dear sirs, I want to know what happened, You only need to spend five cents to have a look!”
Now every morning, the people of Chang'an City have a new pleasure, which is to buy newspapers and then read newspapers. No, as soon as the newsboy came out on his scooter, the early-rising people enthusiastically gathered around to buy newspapers.
"Give me two portions quickly, I want to see how that beautiful young woman died!"
"Give me a copy, my young master wants to read the latest version of "The Story of a Mortal's Cultivation of Immortality"!"
"Give me two copies. My young master and young lady both want to read "The Story of a Mortal's Cultivation of Immortality"!"
… …
After buying newspapers so many times, everyone learned to queue up, which made the efficiency much higher. After a while, dozens of people got the newspapers.
Not far away, there were several scholars, reading the same newspaper as they walked.
"Brother Hua, quickly turn to the back and read "The Story of Mortals Cultivating Immortality"!"
"Yes, yes! I can't wait any longer!"
"Don't, don't, look, today's newspaper seems a little different!"
"Brother Hua, what's the difference? Why didn't I see it?"
"If you look at the middle column of the newspaper, there are actually words! It says that Qiqi Culture opened today and sold fifteen items. Each volume of "The Great Learning" has one hundred and ten articles, and each volume of "The Spring and Autumn Classic" has one One hundred articles, each volume of "The Analects" has one hundred articles, each volume of "Mencius" has ninety articles..."
"Hi~! How can it be so cheap? Is this written wrong?"
"Yes! "The Great Learning" in other bookstores has a volume of 1,400 words per volume!"
"Brother Hua, show me, you must be wrong!"
The scholar surnamed Hua was a little doubtful about life after being talked about by his companions. He could only hand the newspaper to his companions and said:
"Here, here you go, Brother Meng, take a look for yourself!"
The scholar surnamed Meng quickly took it, looked at it carefully, and then exclaimed: "That's right, it's really so cheap. Is this weird culture crazy?"
"Could it be that they are just trying to sell some books with particularly poor printing quality at a low price?"
"Let's go, let's go and see!"
"Yes, yes, let's go together!"
"Uh, but the East Market isn't open yet!"
… … …
Not only these few scholars, but also 80% of the rest of the people who got the newspaper saw this advertisement. Suddenly, Funny Culture, a store that had not yet opened, became popular in Chang'an, and countless people were talking about it in private.
Some said it was sensational, some said the store owner was crazy, and some said the wrong price was written in the newspaper. But more people chose to go and see it in person. If it was true, then buy a copy. Wouldn't it be possible to make a fortune by reselling it
No matter how people talk about it, Qiqi Culture has become the most popular store in Chang'an and even the entire Tang Dynasty.
… … …
I just returned to Beijing this morning and I have a lot of things to do. I have just finished coding the first update. I would like to say sorry to all the book friends who are waiting for the update! There will be another chapter soon!
I saw some book friends at Qidian were struggling with me about horseshoes. I can only say that the information you checked cannot fully explain the problem. There is no authoritative information that can unequivocally prove that there were horseshoes before the Sui and Tang Dynasties. There were many horseshoes. There are doubts about the data. Xia Ke has been very busy these two days and I really don’t have time. When I have time in two days, I will open a special post to refute the so-called historical evidence you mentioned one by one. Where are the doubts
In fact, sometimes I feel helpless. Why do so many authors write about horseshoes? I don’t need to explain it. I wrote it, so I have to give you an explanation. Moreover, the horseshoes I am writing about are only for the protagonist’s home use and have not been extended to the military. It feels like I'm not writing a novel, I'm about to be turned into an archeologist by you!
Thank you for loving you and giving me the reward again and again!
Thank you Luoyang Longchiman Drifting, Dark Hermit, my mother is my mother's monthly ticket!
