Chapter 339: Fame and Fortune
With the character of Ya Nei, in the bedroom. The whole book is full of incense. There were a few barricades on the stomach of the door and window, and the ground was covered with a woolly carpet, and as soon as people entered, they felt a burst of warmth on their faces.
Chu'er called softly, and Chu Zhen walked in with a smile, "What are you going to surprise me again?"
In front of the table next to the screen, dressed in pale white lake embroidered clothes, the delicate figure of the first child with a smile on her face, Yingbu greeted the small hand that stepped forward and put her arm on Chu Zhi very naturally, and said with a smile like a flower: "Changgui has a lot of tongues again, and he has already told him not to reveal it, but I didn't think that I couldn't hold back in the end."
"Look at your appearance, it seems that there is really some great joy Ah took two steps forward Chu Zhen sat down, stretched his arms slightly, hugged Chu'er on his knees, and said with a chuckle: "Don't hurry up and invite it truthfully, otherwise be careful to serve the torture."
Chu'er's pair of plain arms naturally hugged Chu Zhi's neck, her pretty face was attached to his chest, her soft lips were smiling, as bright as water, and she said delicately: "Don't dare, don't dare, the slave is just a weak woman, how dare she hide something in front of Lord Qingtian." ”
"It seems that the lady is not going to tell the truth, since this is the case, the official can only reluctantly pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring on the surface, but the palms of one hand quietly invade the other party's vital point, separated by a thin layer of silk, or caressing or kneading, ten fingers sink into the soft roundness. Extremely tender.
** With a sound, Chu'er is infinitely shy, the red glow is blowing, and a pair of beautiful big eyes are sparkling and moist. The whole body was soft and weak, and it snuggled softly in Chu Zhi's arms, like the melting snow of the spring sun, and gently melted.
After lingering for a moment, taking advantage of it, and kissing her beautiful and smooth little face, Chu Zhicai chuckled and said, "What is the good thing, now you can always say it."
Chu'er Caixia puffed his face, his eyes were like silk, his tender white skin was lightly dyed with a touching flush, bad guy, how to say it like this, his eyes were white and white, and the white and tender and firm twin peaks couldn't help changing various shapes with the strength of his palms, and his nose was intermittently moaning.
After a while, Bei Yan bit her lips, and Chu'er opened her mouth lightly, wheezing and undecided: "News from Beijing."
Hearing this, Chu Zhen's hands froze, and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong at home?" ”
"It's a good thing that the first child's eyebrows are bent into two crescents. Her pretty face was slightly raised, and her red lips were filled with a bright smile, "Madame gave birth, and it is a dragon and phoenix fetus." A little lady, a little boy,"
A wave of confusion. His eyes blinked a few times before Chu Zhi reacted, and his pupils suddenly dilated a few times. He asked incredulously, "Chu'er." You say it again, auntie really
"Hmm." Chu'er nodded obediently, afraid that Chu Zhen would not believe it, and hurriedly took out the family letter from his arms. smiled Yingying said: "That was ten days ago, and now I have received the letter."
Almost snatched the letter from Chu'er's hand. Chu Zhen opened the letter in a panic and took it out to read, and after reading it repeatedly after ten lines, he finally confirmed it, and was overjoyed.
"Great." A loud kiss was printed on Chu'er's pretty face, Chu Zhen cheered, and said with a smile: "The third uncle has a successor, and he finally got one of their wishes, and the aunt is really amazing." If you don't give birth, your life is two moments of laughter, as if you thought of something, Chu Qian's face suddenly changed slightly, and he picked up the letter and read it carefully.
"Childe, what's wrong?. Chu'er was a little puzzled.
"The aunt is not young, and she gave birth to twins, and I don't know if she can bear Chu Qian's worries, and read the content of the letter word by word, and when she saw that she didn't mention it, she was a little relieved, after all, no news is the best news.
"Childe, how is it, madam, she's fine." Chu'er was also worried.
"It's okay, it's me who is worried, but during the confinement period, you should really nourish your body Chu Zhen smiled and said softly: "Chu'er." Later, you will go buy some supplements that are very effective. People are sent back immediately. ”
"Madame's luck is unparalleled, and it won't be a big deal." Chu'er nodded softly and diverted the topic. smiled and said, "Childe, is this a surprise?"
"Count, why not, it's really a big surprise Chu Zhen smiled, just happy first and then surprised.
A pair of beautiful eyes looked forward to life, the corners of the lips hooked a beautiful arc, and Chu'er smiled coquettishly: "Two months ago, when will the surprise promised by the son promise to Chu'er." ”
Chu Zhen was stunned, and sighed lightly in his heart, sure enough, he couldn't promise the woman easily, because she would never forget it, and she was not in a hurry to answer, but said with a smile: "How is the business of the Printing Society?"
"It's okay." Chu'er was humble, but at the end she still couldn't hold back, her eyebrows were crooked, and she said with a smile: "There are fifty-seven bookstores in Hangzhou City." There are already 41 counties that are willing to cooperate with the Indian Press for a long time, and there are other counties that have also expressed their intention in this direction. ”
"Chu'er is really amazing, and he has only been in charge for two months. Just run the Indian Society so prosperously, it seems. As long as we continue to develop according to this trend, sooner or later all the bookstores in Hangzhou will be wiped out, and the quality will naturally be unstingy with praise.
"Not really.
Chu'erqiao's face was slightly red, and her heart was happy. said in a low voice: "Chu'er just did what Childe said."
"What's even more rare is that Chu'er is always not proud of his achievements." Chu Zhen laughed, hugged Chu'er's slender waist, and kissed her tender and soft cherry lips.
Like water, her beautiful eyes flashed with a hazy color, and Chu'er crouched on Chu Zhi's chest, and said softly: "Childe, in the past few days, many people have come to the door to publish anthologies, poems and scriptures in the Printing Society.
The literary style of the Northern Song Dynasty was at its peak, and there were more literati than any other dynasty, and they had the habit of writing poems, essays, and notes, and they were especially keen to publish their own manuscripts, in their hearts. This is not only to promote the world, but also has a deep meaning, I hope that I can leave a name in the history, you don't see, all dynasties, how many people were unknown in their lives, but once there is a manuscript handed down, it is immediately sought after by future generations.
Moreover, the saints all have words, meritorious service, virtue, and speech, even for fame and fortune, Confucius who traveled around the world to educate the world, in his old age. He also revised the classics to pass them on to future generations, so the literati who claimed to be Confucian disciples naturally looked up to the saints. How can you be willing to be left behind?
Especially in the Song Dynasty, the national policy of preferential treatment of scholars and doctors, although the literati and Confucian scholars were born poor, but once they got famous, they naturally did not have money in their pockets, and printed hundreds of poetry collections, even if they could not be famous all over the world because of their fame, they were famous, but they were distributed to relatives and friends, and they felt that they had face when they saw their envious eyes.
Therefore, the most profitable thing to open a printing society is to help people publish books, and with the technology of Chu Quality Printing Society, the cost is greatly saved, and books can be printed casually. Not only do you not have to pay royalties, but the person who prints the book also has to give enough money for artificial paper and ink. Otherwise, there would not be such a bright dark hesitation
"In that case, let's take it." Chu Zhen said with a smile.
"Childe, you" Chu'er opened her beautiful eyes wide, as if she couldn't believe it, after all, she had hinted at it a few times before. It's just that Chu Zhen didn't care about him left and right, or he was vague, changed the topic, and didn't answer the conversation, as for what the reason, seeing that Chu Zhen didn't want to say it clearly, she didn't ask either, she just wanted to try again, but in fact, she didn't have any hope, and she didn't think about this unexpected answer.
"Why, in your eyes, am I really a big fool who has money and doesn't make money." Chu Zhen said with a smile.
"Chu'er didn't think about it that way." Chu'er said angrily, what she said was also the truth, you must know that since she followed Chu Zhen, she found that Chu Zhen was different from some people, and she opened her mouth to disdain words. On the contrary, he is very interested in running a business. Sometimes Chu'er is also guessing that if Chu Zhen fails to be admitted to the Jinshi, he will definitely become a giant.
"I didn't say it, but that's what I thought in my heart." Chu Zhen smiled, his right palm touched the edge of the lake embroidery clothes, rubbed it along Chu'er's smooth and flat lower abdomen, and landed on her heart, carefully feeling the neat and orderly heartbeat.
The heat from the palm of his hand seemed to seep into the corner of Fangxin, Chu'er's body trembled slightly, and he felt a warm current surging all over his body, and his head was lightly buried in Chu Zhi's shoulder. The starry eyes were closed, and a sweet smile appeared on the pretty face: "In this way, Childe promised Chu'er's surprise." Ready to go? ”
"It's really a little worm in my stomach, I can't hide anything from you." Chu Zhen smiled, reached out and groped in his arms, and took out a two-finger thick book.
If the book is printed in engraving. Two fingers are thick and only twenty or thirty pages, but if they are printed in lead and specially made thin bamboo paper, there are at least seventy or eighty pages of books of this thickness, from which we can see the technical differences between the two.
The mantis lowered its head, and at first glance saw the contents of the book cover. Chu'er was stunned, and her delicate eyelashes jumped lightly a few times, and she seemed to be a little dazzled. After a while, she reacted, pointed to the book, and asked in surprise, "Childe, this book is yours?" ”
This seems to be a bit unreasonable, since the book was taken out of Chu Zhen's arms, it must be his. However, even if they don't have much literacy, they can clearly recognize a few on the cover of the book. Word.
"Chu Zhi Poetry Collection." Chu Zhen recited it softly, and at the same time opened the homepage, pointed to the notes, and said with a smile: "Well, if there is no second person who is from Bianliang, Tokyo, whose name is Jingchun, and who was the magistrate of Qiantang County, Hangzhou at the time, this should be me." ”
"Wow." Suddenly, Chu'er found out again, pinching a page of paper with her fingers, looking a little excited, and said in a trembling voice: "Childe, this word, color" How can there be a color. ”
It's no wonder that Chu'er is so excited, other books, the font color is jet black and ink, but Chu's poetry collection is different, not only ink, but also blue, yellow, and vermilion, how is this not amazing.
Without waiting for Chu Zhen to answer, Chu'er exclaimed again: "Also, this painting."
Looking at the elegant and colorful color illustrations on the page, Chu Zhi smiled at the corner of his mouth, and he had reason to be proud, because this was his "first creation" in the true sense of the word
You know, whether it's a folding fan, or bamboo paper. Or the word **, in this era, someone has already invented it, but it was spread in Xiao Fanyin, allowing Chu Zhen to take advantage of the loophole and expand his business.
And the current color overprinted books did not exist in the Northern Song Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty began to sprout, and it was slowly inherited and developed in the Ming Dynasty, but now, Chu quality uses foresight. A group of craftsmen were recruited, and after months of experimentation. Finally, this technology came out more than 200 years ahead of schedule.
Looking at the first child who seems to be in a trance. Chu Zhen chuckled and said, "Chu'er, how about it, I feel surprised now." ”
Well, Chu'er nodded vigorously, her slender hand stroking the colorful pages, and her eyes flashed with a bright color. As long as this book is published, it can be expected that it will be extremely shocking, and when the time comes, "vaguely, Chu'er seems to see the wealth rolling in."
Slender hands carefully flipped through the books, and Chu'er said eagerly: "Childe, how many copies of this book have been printed, and when are you going to sell it?" ”
"There's no hurry." Chu Zhen smiled and said: "This is only the first draft, and the content of the poem has not yet been decided." Wait a few more days. ”
Maybe the poems are not written by himself, Chu Zhen is not so concerned about publishing a collection of poems, but the first set of color printing books will definitely leave a strong mark on the history books, besides, scarcity is expensive, and the profits can be imagined, he is not a saint, this kind of good thing of fame and fortune, how can it be pushed out.
However, Chu Zhen was also a little hesitant, after all, with his fame, he also had the qualifications to publish anthologies, but his reputation had not yet reached the point of serving the people of the world. Surely he is more than happy to make a big splash.
Chu Zhen naturally doesn't want to be a joke for some people, and naturally strives for perfection in the content, annotations, and illustrations of the book, but when it comes to the end, he is still a little unconfident, and it seems that he can only find a master to give him some advice, his eyes flickered, Chu Zhen secretly thought for a moment, and immediately made a decision.
"Oh." Chu'er was a little disappointed, and then looked longing: "By then, all the books will be printed in color."
"Stupid girl.
Lovingly touched Chu'er's delicate nose. Chu Zhen said with a smile: "The cost of color printing is expensive, and the price is naturally more expensive, except for a few wrongdoers." If you don't have a lot of money in your pocket, you may not be willing to buy it even if you are tempted, and the content of the book is the same. Naturally, it will not be a big deal. ”
"People didn't expect that." Two colorful flowers appeared on the pretty face of the first child.
"I'll talk about this later, but if someone comes to print the book, you can provide them with several sets of plans, one is color and pictures, of which the illustrations can be divided into color pictures and ink color pictures, the second is color and no pictures, and the third is no color and pictures, ditto, mouth" Chu Qin slowly listed, smiled and said: "These plans are free for them to choose, and you can match them." It's better to have them all. ”
"So, the most powerful person is Childe." Chu'er Yingying smiled, and a pair of charming beautiful eyes flashed with admiration.
"That's nature." Chu Zhen smiled proudly. Anyway, no one saw it in the private boudoir, and he didn't mind being frivolous.
"But, Childe." hesitated. Chu'er said: "The Indian Society has another question
