Li Shimin then said:

"Oh, when it comes to the Analects, you see, this cover is beautifully designed, and the patterns on it make people feel that their skills are not low!"

The whole book feels bold, but it's very suitable.

Originally, it doesn't seem to be like this now, because both the cover and the inside page make people feel comfortable.

Regarding the pattern of the cover, Ye Ping has something to say.

Ye Ping can have as many patterns as he wants, he can get some patterns from the system, for the craftsman to carve, and then use thick paper to print the cover, and then wear it through the rope, make a good thread, and glue it directly under the cover, so that a book is completed.

"I painted these patterns at random, and I don't want to worry about them!"

Ye Ping's words almost made Li Shimin and the others swallow to death.

Such a beautiful thing, and you still draw it at will?

You're too casual and artistic, aren't you?

And especially Ye Ping's underbeaten expression, which made people feel the urge to punch it.

At the same time, he looked at Ye Ping again, what else would he not know?

"Brother Ye is really an all-rounder, whether it is naming, painting, medical skills and national affairs, he is really proficient in everything!"

As soon as Li Shimin said this, he felt that Ye Ping's awesomeness lies in his attitude towards handling things, which is simply impeccable.

"People say that there is a specialization in the art industry, I see that this is in the body of the shopkeeper Ye, it seems that it can't be used, are you Quanjing? But I think, how can people have so much energy, they can do anything, there must be something greasy in this, right? ”

Even if seeing is believing, in Xu Jingzong's opinion, he still doesn't want to believe it.

Ye Pingcai didn't care whether he believed it or not, and said directly: "So Lao Xu is doubting me, I didn't do these things?" ”

"How can a person have so much energy?"

"Don't say I do! But I'm not going to show you because it's a waste of time. ”

"You ......"

"Lao Li, people here need to be professional, let's go to the front to talk, so as not to affect them."

They were surrounded by scholars who were writing on wax paper.

If the three of them stay any longer, they are afraid that someone will not be able to complete the task today.

So, he proposed to go out and say.

"Okay, let's go out and talk."

After that, the two went out directly, leaving Xu Jingzong alone.

"Wait for me!"

On the way, Li Shimin was dumbfounded.

He said: "The imperial court has supported so many people for you this time, and the time is almost up, if they all leave, will your bookstore still be able to print a large number of books?" ”

"It can be can, but it may be a little slower, and at that time, the demand for the entire Chang'an City will also become stable, it can be said that it is stable and falling, at that time, it will definitely not sell 10,000 sets a day, and it is not bad to have thousands of sets."

Even so, it was an extremely lucrative business.

Then, Li Shimin said: "In this case, do you still have profits?" ”

This question is to the point, according to the current algorithm, Ye Ping's book can have more than half of the profit.

But since Li Shimin said so, then if he doesn't cry poorly, he will be sorry for himself.

The so-called crying child has milk to eat.

So, he said, "Hey, if these two thousand people leave, in fact, my profit is not high, and it is not bad to earn a penny from a book." Now the book tax collected by the imperial court accounts for 10%, but for the sake of the future of the Tang Dynasty, I have nothing to lose. As long as everyone in the world can afford to read, so what? ”

Ye Ping's meaning of what he said was very clear.

Two thousand people, they will definitely be called back when the time comes, they can't stay here all the time to help Ye Ping.

Li Shimin listened.

"There's still a tax on this book?"

"Yes, Lao Li may have a collection of books at home, but he does not print books, and he does not know about the taxation of them. But it's happening. That's a 10% tax! ”

Li Shimin already had something he wanted to do in his heart.

That is to abolish the book tax, books are already rare, and you still collect taxes, which will only increase the burden on the readers, because in the end, these extra expenses still have to be shared by the readers.

So Li Shimin said: "Then how can it be done? ”

"Lao Li is not poor, and he may not know about some of these things, but this is the case."

"This is my negligence!"

Li Shimin muttered,

Ye Ping pretended not to listen.

"What did you say?"

"No, no, no, I'll talk to Your Majesty about this when I go back and see if he can properly reduce taxes in this area."

When Ye Ping heard this, his heart was refreshed, that is, he wanted to make another profit?

The profit that was originally 50% now goes directly to 60% profit, and the rest is the cost.

"In this way, thank you Lao Li."

"Thanks for what? In fact, all I need is a fountain pen, and the book tax is wrapped up in me! ”

Ye Ping still underestimated Li Shimin.

It turned out that he had come prepared.

This guy is coveting his own pen.

He didn't expect the fountain pen to be so popular.

Leaf paperback as a difficult appearance.

"Well...... this"

"How? This is very beneficial to you, and you can still do things for the people, and you can still get benefits! ”

A fountain pen has a maximum of ten points, and the tax saved next can at least allow Ye Ping to earn more.

So, if you don't agree, you're stupid.

"Okay, wait, I'll get you a fountain pen, but this is my last, and if I want it again, then I won't have it."

After finishing, Ye Ping took out a fountain pen from his arms.

It's like juggling.

Xu Jingzong had never seen a fountain pen, and the whole person was stunned.
