Chapter 82: It's all just rubbish
Yichang was really angry, but Qiao Ya, who received the post, was crazy. Yichang Zhenren is not so white-eyed, relying on the fact that she is a senior sister, she suppressed all the posts and did not tell Qiao Ya, so she wanted to be jealous that her junior sister was sought after by the world, and on the other hand, she had to sort out all the posts sent to Baiyun Temple and send them to the East Guest House.
Qiao Ya has so many opportunities to promote herself at once, of course, it is impossible to let it go. But if everyone sells like this, she can't stand going to a few more stores. If you think about going to other people's houses every day and saying the same thing, saying it N times over and over again, will you go crazy?
So Qiao Ya thought of a way, she directly wrote a product catalog, and the products she brought and the products she didn't bring were on the catalog. She will also try to draw a display picture of the product she didn't bring, so that people can know what kind of product it is.
Of course, it is impossible to write only one copy of this directory, but Qiao Ya hopes that everyone in the upper social circle of the capital can have a copy, so the problem of copying the directory next comes to the table.
At this time, there is still printing, but the printing technology of Xiliang Kingdom is the oldest engraving printing, and after brushing a few times, the layout will begin to wear out, and the printed things will become blurry.
Qiao Ya first began to take one out to print, and after three days, less than twenty copies were printed, and she had to re-engrave it. As soon as she thought that this would not work, she thought that she would get a movable type to print.
Of course, movable type printing is not her invention, she naturally will not occupy this reputation, then she will say that it is a master's guidance, and then say Bi Sheng's name, it is not a deception to the world, right?
She has always been a person who does what she wants, and she just thought of movable type printing. I started working on movable type. In fact, for ordinary people, it is very troublesome to study movable type, this movable type carving must be carried out on the clay, and the clay must be burned hard after carving, and a word that is not good to burn is broken, then the clay word will be wasted.
Joya made movable type, using the simplest and most violent way, directly using the wind blade technique to cut on the stone, and the hard stone can be directly used for printing after cutting, without the need to go through firing at all.
So. It can save a lot of time. As for the pattern on the manual. The engraving was still used, but this time the material of the engraving was changed from wood to stone.
Of course, the slate selected by Qiao Ya is made of Luanyun stone with strong suction and can adhere to ink, so there is no problem of ink leakage. She locked herself in her room for three days and made enough movable type and pattern engravings to print. Then he sent it to the printing press. More than 300 product catalogs have been made.
Each table of contents has ten pages. It's both positive and negative. The paper is thick and flat, not easy to be damaged, and it will not fluff even if it is read by many people. The cover of each book is made of carefully selected colored paper, and the vista of Mount Dagon is depicted on it. Nie Yunguan's appearance can still be faintly seen on the mountain. On the background map, the seven big characters "Nie Yunguan Product Catalog" are written in a straight line, and the content is straightforward.
In this way, Qiao Ya took this batch of product catalogs and started to go to the banquet. She would bring ten to twenty catalogs with her every one she went, but each time she went, the catalogs were not enough. There are a lot of Beijing officials in the capital, and the Beijing officials have such and such relatives, even the rich businessmen who can't get close to each other, and they all want a Nie Yunguan product catalog.
Now in the capital, if you don't have a copy of Nie Yunguan's product catalog in your hand, you will be laughed to death when you go out to a banquet. Talking about what rare items Nie Yunguan has, which clothes are the best, and which fruits are the rarest have become a hot topic of discussion among the upper classes in the capital.
For a while, orders flew to Baiyun Temple like snowflakes, and the ear room of the East Guest House was full.
If you want to send these orders back, it is naturally a matter of one sentence, but you can't let these orders disappear in front of Yichang real people. Qiao Ya could only close the ear room and never go in again, otherwise those orders would flow out as soon as the door was opened.
Yichang Zhenren looked at it coldly for a few days, and also went to the banquet a few times. She saw that her junior sister never talked about Taoism when she went out, but only cared about selling products to make money, and Yichang Zhenren's heart gradually settled down.
In fact, Yichang Zhenren was not interested in this product at all, and she didn't believe that the little sister had the ability to take so many orders. When she saw that the little junior sister did not refuse the order, she still gloated in her heart.
You must know that these nobles in the capital are not so easy to fool. You can't lose a single cent as much as she wants, and you can't be a moment late when she wants you to deliver.
The little junior sister is not greedy enough to swallow the elephant, and after receiving so many orders in one go, she doesn't believe that with so many disciples under the little junior sister, she can collect all the goods within the specified time and send them to Beijing in time.
Yichang Zhenren sneered, and after sending the little junior sister to a banquet a few times, one day she found the East Guest Courtyard and said that she would not go to the banquet again, and Qiao Ya would go alone in the future.
Qiao Ya became curious, isn't this senior sister guarding herself from being like a thief, and she can't wait to peep at herself even when she sleeps every day? Why did you suddenly change your sex today and stop going to the banquet with yourself?
Qiao Ya has a straight temperament, she asks whatever she thinks, but when she asks it, Yichang Zhenren sneered.
"Hmph, I don't have the time to do business with your family. We are cultivators, not merchants. Even if you are for the development of Taoism, it is too embarrassing for you to do it. If you were wise, you would have them beg you to buy it. But you just used the stupidest method, one by one. ”
Qiao Ya was stunned, looked at Yichang Zhenren, and her eyes were full of doubts: "Senior sister, you don't hate me the most, how did you point me out today." ”
Yichang Zhenren sneered disdainfully: "I naturally hate you, but it's just because the master was extra partial to you when he was alive, but now it seems that you and I are both poor people, and she still misses her eldest apprentice." We were both nothing more than garbage to her. ”
Qiao Ya immediately understood the words of Yichang Zhenren, but she couldn't show it on her face, so she could only look at Yichang with an expressionless face.
Yichang didn't explain, how could she say that there was a senior sister above her? She could only snort coldly and throw her sleeves away.
Qiao Ya kept an eye on it, called Yichang Zhenren, and gave her a set of pure white blessing robes.
"This is the main product I am promoting this time, this robe is made of Jinxi's specialty cloud silk, so it has the effect of keeping warm. Please also ask my sister to try it, if my sister is also wearing my things, I think they will be more willing to buy it. ”
Qiao Ya's plea did not arouse Yichang's suspicions, and she also had some hot things for Qiao Ya, so she accepted it without saying a word. (To be continued......)
