The guests watched as the strong men moved the boxes into the backyard, and then took out some thin, square-shaped notebooks from the backyard and put them on the shelves.

The people of Chang'an are still more well-informed, and there are many poor scholars on weekdays, who will try to hang out in department stores cheaply.

It didn't take long for someone to recognize: "It's a book!" A book made of paper! ”

Now the paper has not penetrated into the homes of ordinary people, and it belongs to the high-end goods that rich people such as princes and nobles can afford.

And because of technical limitations, whether it is writing or other uses, it is actually inferior to bamboo slips and cloth. If you use it less, ordinary people will naturally not recognize it.

But I don't know that the word "paper" and "book" can still be understood.

The crowd was in an uproar.

"Does Dahan Department Store also sell books?"

"Books are such valuable things, how can they be put on the shelves and sold with oil, salt, sauce and rice and ordinary snacks!"

"Let's not talk about this first, isn't the book carved in bamboo slips, how can it look like this?"

"Even the books written in cloth are all one volume at a time!"

"Hey, you don't understand that, do you? My third uncle's grandson's classmate works in Shaofu, and I heard him say that Shaofu is developing a paper that is 100 times better than bamboo slips and cloth! ”

"Nonsense, the paper is soft and brittle, and it will fall apart when you touch it, how can it be better than bamboo slips!"

"Alas, if it is really that good, the price of this book must be very high, and I am afraid that poor students such as me will not be able to afford it."

A young man wearing a scarf had just finished sighing when he heard someone exclaim.

"Shopkeeper, are you wrong to mark this price, how can such a precious thing as a book be so cheap!"

"Yes, shopkeeper, hurry up and change it back, otherwise you won't be able to afford to lose money!"

Obviously, Tang Qi was standing at the door of the store, but no one greeted him, whether it was the people who were discussing the hot topic or the customers who were looking at the freshness inside.

As if he didn't exist.

This is because those who will personally "visit the supermarket" are either ordinary people or poor people, and then there are merchants and craftsmen with lower status.

The difference in status is too big, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to settle down with the marquis!

Tang Qi put on a posture early not to salute and pay more attention to my family's new products.

No matter how uninteresting people are, they don't dare to bother him at this time.

It has caused the effect of a dignified Guan Neihou who will be ignored by these ordinary people and ordinary scholars.

At this time, hearing some people questioning, Tang Qicai explained lightly: "The pricing is correct, and the discount on the membership price will not change." ”

Of course, Settle Hou will not deceive people, and if you say that you are not mistaken, you are really not mistaken.

The onlookers in front of the shelves were stunned: "How could it be, how could it be so cheap!" ”

"Hey, how cheap is it!"

The people who were huddled out were not happy and shouted one after another.

The spacing between the shelves is so large, and there are dozens or hundreds of people surrounding the clerks after each row, and most of them can only see a shadow at all!

"One hundred bucks!"

"Such a delicate book, it only costs a hundred dollars!"

In order to prevent people from maliciously destroying books, or just prostituting them for nothing, Tang Qi specially spent system funds to put a plastic seal on each book.

If you don't buy it, you won't be able to see what's inside.

But that doesn't stop people from being shocked.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

"A hundred dollars, a set of books is only a hundred dollars? That's right! ”

"That's right, it's 100 yuan, Master Hou said it himself, and the members are discounted!"

"What a book, what a book, let me see it!"

"Do you buy it or not, don't buy it, don't surround it, let those of us who want to buy come first!"

"Who said not to buy it, store, bring me ten sets!"

"Can you finish reading ten sets, don't waste it if you can't finish it, leave some for us!"

"I'm not the only one to watch, I have the money and am willing to buy more and give it to relatives and friends to see, you can manage it!"

"Hey, you are coarse and illiterate, you bought it and went home to ashes!"

"If you don't know how to read now, won't my baby know how to read in the future!"

Everybody is crazy!

No one even cares about Waiting for Tang Qi anymore, and both the peddlers and pawns are waving the copper coins in their hands, shouting to the sky and the earth to buy books.

If you don't have enough money in your hand, you can find someone to borrow it, but you can't borrow it, so you run home.

A book for a hundred dollars!

It doesn't matter what kind of book it is, even if it's a calendar book, it's words and articles!

What's more, someone has already read out the title of the book aloud - "Juvenile Popular Science Reader"!

I don't know what popular science means, but "teenagers" and "readers", big guys still understand.

It's a book for young people!

Young people, it's not a book for young children, at least there must be famous articles in it, right?

Such a book can be bought for only 100 yuan!

Any idea what this concept is?

In these years, a pound of mutton costs 150 yuan!

Ordinary people work, a strong laborer who does hard labor, can also earn two times a month.

In other places, even a Mongolian book like "Thousand Character Text", even if it is an inferior manuscript, it will cost thousands of dollars!

Now such a beautiful book, although it looks a little thinner, it is written on paper!

What is written on paper is the same as what is written on cloth, can it be compared with bamboo slips?

It's a big profit!

For a while, Dahan Department Store was crowded, and customers who heard the news continued to pour in.

No matter your status or how much money you can earn every month, you have to buy at least one copy back, and you can't leave it to your children and grandchildren!

In the future, our old X family will finally have a book that can be passed down!

The scene of the crowd made Lei Bei, who was worried about Tang Qi's safety, have to be tough, and dragged the Hou Ye, who still wanted to see the excitement, to move his position.

"No matter what the era, people's thirst for knowledge is the same."

Tang Qi shook his head, and finally couldn't resist Lei Bei and the others, and left the store with emotion.

……

Weiyang Palace.

The residence of the Great Prince.

Xiao Liu blinked his big eyes, held a book that was neither thick nor thin in his hand, and asked the person in front of him curiously: "You said that this is a book that Mr. personally went to Dahan Department Store and put out to sell?" ”

The little Langguan in front of him was panting, obviously coming from outside the palace all the way in a hurry.

"Yes, the minister saw it with his own eyes!" Xiao Langguan raised his head, and it was Wei Qing's eldest son, Wei Ling, "The minister still relied on the guards to squeeze in, and finally grabbed a copy!" ”

Wei Yan is only in his early teens this year, and it stands to reason that he is not yet old enough to enter the palace.

But probably thinking that Liu Ju was going to go out of the palace to apprentice, and then study with Tang Qi, Liu Che still recruited the eldest son of his confidant general into the hall as Liu Ju's companion and follower.

"Such a delicate book, since Mr. only sells for a hundred wen?" Liu Ju opened his mouth wide in surprise, "It's too wasteful!" ”

Wei Yan shook his head: "Mother said that Andinghou did this in order to practice 'education without class', and for the good of the world's scholars!" ”
