Chapter 367: Side-knocking

The tattoo is the shopkeeper of Zichang smiled! , "Don't please, according to Dong Xin's statement four". The copyright of this poetry collection belongs to our printing agency, which is an exclusive license, and the profits have nothing to do with it. ”

The terminology is incomprehensible, but the booksellers are also shrewd and carefully considered. Suddenly, An felt that there was a deep meaning in it, and in the vagueness, it seemed that he vaguely understood something.

"Exclusive" means that only Xiling Printing Society is allowed to print it, no wonder it is specially marked in the book. ”

There are rules of the line, even if there is no explicit order of the imperial court, but what everyone acquiesces to is the iron-like rule, and if you don't say it secretly, you still have to abide by it on the surface, since the printing society spent money to get this privilege, everyone recognized its reasonableness.

Perhaps booksellers do not understand the concept of monopoly. But that doesn't stop them from understanding the implications. Naturally, I understand the benefits of doing this, after all, the basic behavior of doing business is to communicate with each other, I have you or not, and it is not up to you to decide what price to make.

"Your proprietor is really shrewd." Thinking about this clearly, some booksellers can't help but be impressed.

Shopkeeper Lu chuckled, there was no need to be humble for his owner, besides, he thought so.

"I said, no wonder the book collection was printed and didn't contact us, but went to the downtown to sell it. smiled: "I invested a lot of money, but I was also flustered." ”

Everyone laughed, and they didn't say much at the moment. What else is there to say, people have invested a lot of money, the cost is extremely high, waiting for the return of the cost, how can there be a possibility of price reduction, anyway, it is profitable, make less money, small profits but quick turnover.

Someone said: "Shopkeeper Lu, Guidong is afraid that he is new to the publishing industry, you listen to errands below, and you don't know how to persuade and help people publish books, how can there be any reason to lose money."

Shopkeeper Lu smiled but didn't answer, and replied in a hurry: "You don't understand, don't talk nonsense, the knowledge in it is great." ”

"What kind of knowledge, fortunately a good book was printed, with the fame of Chuzhi County, it is not a problem to sell tens of thousands of copies, if there are some obscure and down-and-out scribes, you will not lose your life" can not be said like this, you must know that with the unprecedented color printing method of the Printing Society, there is no business to do

"Which is, which is

Seeing that everyone intentionally or unintentionally gradually led the topic to color printing technology, how could the shopkeeper not know the reason. sneered in his heart, and he was false and wronged, and he started haha: "Losing money or not losing money is secondary, but what Lu admires most is the move of the owner, everything is inferior, only the reading is high, Zhu Zigui of the Manchu Dynasty is a scholar, as long as these people are served well, borrow a sentence from Chu County, and let the east and west and the north and south wind." ”

"High!"

Half ringing, carefully savoring, booksellers have expressed their respect, the most important thing in doing business is connections. Especially deal with officials, after all, no matter how rich you are, the officials will not like you. A fluttering piece of paper can ruin his family, which is a reality and an experience.

If you give up some capital. Get in touch with them. That may not be beneficial, but there is no need to worry about it all the time. Everyone has reason to believe that after receiving this affection, as long as Chu Zhen is in the county magistrate of Qiantang for a day, absolutely no one will trouble the Xiling Seal Society.

Among the booksellers present, naturally some of them had inextricable relations with some large printing societies in Hangzhou, and some of them were simply their employees. After going back, he immediately reported to the proprietor, and at the same time secretly regretted: "Such a simple, wonderful and useful strategy, why didn't I think of it before?"

Not to mention the bookseller's remorse, it is also Xingyu Building, and a banquet is also being held in the wing room on the second floor, but the people invited to attend are extraordinary, they are all famous people in Hangzhou, and there are a few great Confucians, even Fan Zhongyan is in front, and he has to politely call him a brother.

Since it is a famous person in the cultural world, of course, the atmosphere of the banquet can not be so casual, the delicious and pure brew is full of tables, but there are few chopsticks, the beautiful girl dances in front, and there is no hands-on, everything is so elegant and detailed, which is like next door, messy, simply unbearable. It's unsightly.

While admiring the elegant art, a scribe in his thirties, wearing a robe, with an elegant appearance and a flowing green beard, gave the courtesy of his disciples, and said respectfully: "The above is the meaning of the despised proprietor. But I don't know what a few gentlemen think? ”

Several Confucians looked at each other for a moment and groaned. Someone said: "Huan Fu, you mean that not only do you engrave the book collection for us free of charge, but also pay us the money to polish the pen?" ”

"Exactly." The green-bearded scribe nodded and said, "The proprietor has always admired the talents and virtues of all gentlemen, and is willing to do his best for you. ”

Perhaps the mind of studying knowledge is relatively simple. I don't understand the proverb that if you have nothing to do, you will be a thief, and you know the person of the blue-bearded scribe, so I don't expect him to harm himself, and I suddenly thought that I had met a righteous man who was not for fame and fortune, and a smile appeared on my face.

"Huan Fu, there is already something wrong with the free engraving of the book collection, how can you accept another money, and return it to the owner of your family, just say that I am grateful in my heart, but the others are deserved

Several great Confucians agreed, and lamented that the world is declining, and good people still exist.

"All hearts say that I have been arched for the year, and the green bearded girl is full of excitement, and the righteous heart is in the door!" The proprietor's move, at first Huan Fu did not understand his meaning. After listening to his explanation, I understood the high meaning of the proprietor. ”

Respectfully bowed, the green bearded scribe sighed: "The proprietor has a saying, looking at the present world, the collection of scriptures transmitted by the great Confucians of the previous dynasty has been lost in ten times, and the reason for this is that it is lost." It is nothing more than that it cannot be engraved and preserved in time, which is really sad. ”

"Every time I think about this, the proprietor is filled with grief and indignation, if these scriptures can be passed down from generation to generation, it can be said that future generations will be involved, and because of this, I make this decision." The Scribe continued in a respectful tone, "And according to the proprietor's wishes, the collection of your gentlemen's books is the collection of your life's energy and dedication. can be successful, and speak to the world, this is a move. It is admirable and admirable, but it is better to express the admiration in your heart, only to do this vulgar act to show respect, I hope you do not want to refuse. ”

As soon as I heard the words, I heard a few great Confucians, just like drinking cold spring water on a dog day, the whole body was clear and comfortable, sweet and silky, and the aftertaste was endless.

"It's hard to resist the enthusiasm, you still agreed to a few young scholars, and I don't know whether they were hinted at by the scribe who abandoned the beard, or for other reasons, so they hurriedly added fuel to the fire.

However, how high is the realm of Confucianism. Money and everything, it's all floating clouds, waving your sleeves. No matter how persuaded by others, no matter how clever the green-bearded scribe was, he refused to agree, presumably because he did not want to leave a trace of stigma for money.

"I'll tell you a few, do you know the allusions to Zigong's ransom." When the stalemate was stalemate, suddenly an arrogant voice came from outside the door, and everyone turned around in surprise, but saw Shen Liaodu stepping in. Lang Sheng said: "Zigong kindly ransomed people back then. Why was he scolded by Confucius, it is nothing more than blaming him for doing bad things with good intentions, I think you are the same, you are good, why block the way of other people's wealth. ”

What kind of temperament Shen Liao is, no one in Hangzhou City knows, with the mind of a few great Confucians, how can they care about his rudeness, but think carefully about the meaning of his words.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a decree in the Lu State that if the Lu people saw their compatriots being sold into slavery in a foreign country. As long as they are willing to pay money to redeem people, then the state will compensate and reward them, Zigong out of good intentions, ransomed some people, but did not want the king to reward, but Confucius thought that Zigong's move hurt heaven and reason, and harmed countless Lu compatriots in distress.

Confucius felt that Zigong did not receive compensation. Of course, he won higher praise for himself, but in the future, those who ransom people and then go to ask for money from the state. Not only may you never get everyone's praise again, but you may even be ridiculed by the people, but those who want to do good deeds in the future will have to think twice. Therefore, Zigong's move is not only not a good thing. On the contrary, it is the most abominable of evil.

Now, the behavior of several people is similar to that of Zigong He Zeng back then, and it seems that there is a lack of consideration for the fact that they are equal to others by their own standards.

"The literati are hard, if they get this money. In addition to improving his life, he was able to devote himself to research. Wouldn't it be better? Shen Liao said: "You have shirked it, let others do something." ”

"Ruida is reasonable, it is because we owe the Great Confucian is the Great Confucian, and I will not deny my mistakes. Be open to criticism.

"Knowing that mistakes can be changed, good is great, so good Shen Liao nodded, and then left quickly. Don't wait for everyone to keep it.

"This kid has the opposite temperament to his brother, and he still needs to be honed."

"It's normal to be talented and a little arrogant. I think Brother Lin was not like this back then. "Haha

After a chuckle, maybe an adult. A few big Confucians chatted about the past, and they were a little tired of it, and others also interjected a few words with knowledge and interest, and patted a little pony, expressing admiration and joy. A ball of harmony.

In addition to laughter, there are also people who secretly think. For no reason, why did Shen Liao come out to help, could it be that he is the behind-the-scenes proprietor of the Printing Society, is it possible,

Next door, in a richly decorated room, Chu Zhen raised his glass and said, "Ruida, thank you." ”

Without asking Chu Zhen why he let himself come forward to say that, Shen Liao drank all his salutes and said with a chuckle: "Alas, who told me to listen to the messenger under you." I had to start with Ah

"I also said, you, a staff member, really don't do your duty, and the number of times you appear throughout the month. Handful. Chu Zhen was grateful, but scolded with a smile: "I also want to do the errand of a white-collar worker." ”

"Don't talk about me, you, the magistrate, are not doing your job. Disaster relief, lake control, and books, everything has your share. But I haven't seen you sit in the signing room for a few days, and Shen Liao replied unceremoniously: "Yesterday, Master Liu was still complaining, let me persuade you to accept your heart, a little conscious of knowing the county."

Laughing and scolding, Jiuyan's ears were hot, a little fluttering, Chu Zhen asked unintentionally: "That's right." Wentong is better in Jiang.

"Very well, my sister is helping him with family affairs.

Shen Liao Junyi's face flushed a little. Seems to be a little drunk.

"It's a good thing, when the time comes, Yimalaria will give him a big gift, Chu Zhen smiled, and continued to ask: "Jiangning and Hangzhou are not far away, and the wedding ceremony is to be held in his hometown." ”
