Chapter 338: Surprise

… In the drunken and exciting township, Chu Zhi forgot to inspect the West Lake in the afternoon, Cheng was slack, naturally, no one was so uninteresting to come to urge. \。 ǒМ\\

"Childe, the Printing Society has already made preparations. At any time, the flush left over from love appeared on his pretty face, curled up in Chu Zhen's arms, and Chu'er said softly: "I also want to ask Gongzi to choose a good day and an auspicious day." ”

Listening to the soft voice, the palm of the hand quietly swept over the towering curve, the slippery skin was full of elasticity, the head swayed slightly, and found a comfortable position, Chu Zhen said with a smile: "You can decide this kind of thing yourself, put a few strings of firecrackers, invite the neighborhood to liven up, and you don't have to make it known all over the city."

Low-key is the king, after all, there is a ban on officials in the imperial court who are not allowed to do business, although it exists in name only, but the face project still has to be done.

With Chu Zhen's movements, Chu'er's crimson cheeks burned like flames, only to feel that his son was sour for a while, and couldn't help but twist, his eyes were shining, a little hazy, and he chuckled: "Chu'er remembers, if you have something, leave it to your subordinates to do, even if you have to, don't show up."

Chu Zhi kissed her delicate face gently, wrapped his arms lightly, hugged her delicate body and said approvingly: "Workshops and the like, don't care too much, they are all things outside the body, as long as the people and technology are still there, it can be rebuilt after spending some time." ”

After a long period of indoctrination by Chu Zhi, Chu'er gradually agreed that people are people-oriented and technology is the primary productive force, which will naturally not be refuted.

"After the opening of the Printing Society, I asked my son to decide what books to print." Chu'er said with a smile, burying his head on Chu Zhi's shoulder, only to feel that his whole body was soft and numb, warm, lazy, and indescribably comfortable.

"What kind of book to print, that's a real question." Chu Zhen looked pensive, and the palm of his hand subconsciously slid to her plump buttocks on her smooth back, and the hand was as smooth as silk.

No matter what era it is, some books can never be published, although some ** are very profitable, but Chu Zhen does not want to make his printing society attract the attention of the government.

Just when he was thinking, Chu Zhi's fingers gradually moved down unconsciously, touched a place of shame, pressed it gently, only heard the sound of "ah", Chu'er's body trembled slightly, and he exhaled softly involuntarily, and his pretty face was as red as the sunset on the horizon. A thin layer of fragrant sweat oozed from his forehead, the sound of rapid breathing could be heard clearly, and the tender white little hand hurriedly tore open Chu Zhi's palm.

Chu Zhen woke up in shock, didn't realize what he had just done at all, and asked inexplicably, "Chu'er, what's wrong."

Villain, Chu'er was shy and unbearable in his heart, his face was flushed, as if he was about to drip blood, and his beautiful eyes were covered with water, so he refused to answer out loud.

Shaking his head slightly, Chu Zhen didn't ask carefully, his palm fell on the tall mountain peak again, rubbed it carefully, and said in his mouth: "Print thousands of Confucian classics first, and also print hundreds of Buddhist and Taoist classics, and after they are sold, you can know which books are more popular, and if someone comes to print books, don't pay attention to them for the time being, just say that there are not many craftsmen in the printing society, and they can't afford this business, so let him find another place."

In fact, Chu Zhen is going to do a market research, but after thinking about it, I think it's okay, not only troublesome, but also eye-catching, anyway, you can know which books are more popular from the books sold, and the data is more intuitive than the survey.

The shyness in the misty eyes shone and faded by two points, Bei Yan bit his lower lip lightly, and Chu Er was puzzled: "Why? Chu'er inquired, and the profit of helping people print books is quite a lot. ”

"Of course I do." Chu Zhen said with a smile, different from modern times. Due to the limitations of technology, in ancient times, not only did not have to give the author royalties, but asked the author to give money, not to mention the sales, this cost alone is enough for the cost of printing books, and Chu Quality Printing Society uses the best printing technology, the cost is negligible, it can be said that as long as you take over the next business, it is pure, profit.

However, Chu Zhen obviously had other plans, and said with a chuckle: "Don't worry, wait a little longer, I'll surprise you then."

"Hmm." Chu'er nodded softly, with a hint of curiosity in her heart, but she didn't ask again.

Two days later, in the state government hall, pointing to a wall map, Chu Zhen talked eloquently: "According to Shen Kuo's plan, considering the topography and the rapid flow of water, the best place to build the causeway is here to point to the direction of the wall chart, Chu Zhen continued: "Also, in order to allow boats to sail unimpeded in the lake, several stone bridges can be built between the causeways

Fan Zhongyan and Gu Kezhi, who were listening, nodded again and again, and after Chu Zhi finished speaking, Fan Zhongyan opened his mouth and asked: "Chu Zhi County, since this Shen Kuo has this insight and the matter of building embankments, you can ask him to coordinate and guide him."

"Xia Guan understands, it's just that Shen Kuo is still keeping filial piety for his father, otherwise he can be responsible for building the embankment." Chu Zhen said with a smile, feeling sorry in his heart, and missed another opportunity to be lazy.

Fan Zhongyan said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, the person is outside the city of Hangzhou, not far away, if you don't understand something, just go and ask him, the most important thing at the moment is not the embankment work, but the problem of inconvenient water for the people in the city, which needs to be solved." ”

Shujun West Lake, it is necessary to drain the lake water before construction, although it is said that the spring at the bottom of the lake is constantly gushing water, and it cannot be discharged at all

But poured day and night. The water surface is halved. The shrinkage of the water supplying the six wells has had some impact on the people of Ganranyang.

However, this kind of thing is also inevitable, after discussing for a while, several people have a feeling of helplessness, and finally Chu Zhen proposed: "This matter must be explained to the people by Taishou, presumably they will understand the difficulties, and we can let the carpenter build more than 100 large barrels, and then investigate hundreds of people, absorb the water from the mountain spring and transport it back to the city to distribute to the people, or we can solve the urgent need for a while." ”

"That's all there is to it." Fan Zhongyan seemed to be a little worried, and sighed lightly: "Disturbing the people for a while, but benefiting the people for a long time, the old man has no choice but to make such a trade-off, I hope the people will be patient for the time being, and there will be no too many complaints." ”

"The people are not ignorant people, and they will definitely be considerate of the Taishou." Chu Zhen said, and also understood Fan Zhongyan's worries, Yang actually had as many local officials at all levels in the imperial court who respected and supported him as many people who resented and opposed him, and finally overcame the difficulties to start building the lake, Fan Zhongyan naturally did not want to give up halfway because of a few slanderous words from the villain.

Time is like water, more than two months have passed in a blink of an eye, Hangzhou is already in the deep winter, although it has not snowed, but the cold is overwhelming, a few wisps of breeze blowing, will make the thinly dressed pedestrians can't help but shiver.

The Spring Festival is coming, a lively scene in the city of Hangzhou, every household is in a hurry to buy New Year's goods, even if it is not a market day, the past merchants seem to be crowding the city, keep pouring in, but do not come out, several shops lined up in the street, it is even more noisy and abnormal, a piece of customers are nearly sprinkled with money, desperately squeezing in, repeating the scene of the drought in the previous few months to buy rice grain.

Qiantang County Ya, signing the detention room, gave instructions on a few official documents, Chu Zhi picked up a cup of warm tea soup, and was about to take a sip when there was a messy footstep outside the door, only to see Changgui running in with a smile on his face, although he couldn't take his breath, but still suddenly gasped and said: "Childe" big, happy, eat"

Accustomed to Changgui's fuss, that is, picking up a few pennies, or cheering for the blooming of Qingteng in the backyard, Chu Zhi took a sip of tea soup and said indifferently: "Don't worry, say it slowly, how many times have I told you, everything must be calm, even if you can't do it without changing your face when Mount Tai collapses in front of you, don't mess up." ”

Changgui opened his mouth to speak, but found that he couldn't make a sound, so he quickly covered his chest, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled it, feeling a little smoother, and immediately smiled and said: "Childe, this is a great event that is unparalleled in the world, you will definitely not be able to calm down after listening to it." ”

Chu Zhen naturally didn't believe it, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said: "Don't sell it, let's talk about it, there is something happy." ”

"Yes" His lips squirmed, and Changgui laughed: "I almost forgot, the junior girl didn't let the little one say, let you go back to the courtyard, and then she will surprise you." ”

"Hang people's taste, be careful and serve the family law." Chu Zhen scolded with a smile, and was a little curious in his heart, shouldn't it be that the book sales published by the Printing Society have set a new record.

Since the opening of the printing society, in addition to the first ten days into the market, the results are slightly bleak, after the city of Hangzhou various booksellers and shops immediately came to the door, business is very prosperous, after all, compared with other engraving printing books, the use of new technology to print books, whether it is layout, font, quality is far better.

Especially the price of books, considering that you don't want to do things absolutely, so as not to offend all your peers and cause them to join forces to fight back, so Chu quality is not excessive, the price of a set of books is only ten percent lower than that of peers, you know, a set of books is often divided into more than a dozen volumes, some even dozens of volumes.

As long as the proprietor of the bookseller bookstore is not stupid, he naturally understands which one to count, and all of a sudden, all the bookstores in Hangzhou City have come to buy goods.

Of course, some large printing societies, in addition to printing books, also open bookstores to sell books, naturally will not do anything to support their opponents, but Hangzhou is so big, there are many bookstores, not necessarily those printing societies of the industry, especially those private bookstores, profit first, will not say which printing agency has been cooperating with for a long time, and will not give up.

Moreover, as soon as these high-quality and inexpensive books were put on the market, they were immediately recognized by customers, and they were the same as the Analects, and the content was the same, but here the font was clear, the pages were neat, and the book was printed in one volume, while the other side was the opposite. The most important thing is that the price difference between the two is nearly half, which is simply the gospel of poor scholars, and after comparing them again and again, they find that the content of this book is not missing, and there are no other problems, so they can make a choice without thinking at all.

Sometimes, good wine is not afraid of deep alleys, this sentence still makes sense, Chu Zhen thought that the newly opened Indian Society, the reputation is not obvious, but also to plan a few advertisements, to promote the printing society, business will flourish, but unexpectedly, in ancient times, a good reputation, is stronger than doing a lot of advertising, word of mouth, the reputation of the Indian Society has gradually radiated to the two states and counties, of course, want to be famous throughout the country, it still takes some time and chance.

I'm busy with resignation, my heart is a little messy, I'm writing a little card, it's still the same sentence, the recent update is unstable, see fluoride (to be continued)
