Because of Shi Chong's poverty relief and benevolence, Luo Yunxiao has a place to build a camp. But this camp is to be built on flat ground, and if it wants to be defensive, it must be backed by a large amount of money. The first pot of gold earned in the capital was almost all spent in the private soldier trading market. Fortunately, a batch of grain was sold later, and it earned 7,80,000 taels and later. The old man of Gongye Lithium and Titanium provided them with 5,000 taels of gold and 10,000 taels of silver. Although 100,000 taels of silver were given to Chang Dongfang, there were still 340,000 taels of silver left, which could just come in handy.

To build a standard camp, according to the market price at that time, it was about 30,000 or 40,000 yuan, which also included the cost of manpower. Now that manpower and some material factors can be removed, this camp can be built with only 20,000 taels of silver. The thousands of people in Duxiu Cottage is a huge human resource. The county town of Ximang was destroyed by the bandits of Yinyang Castle, and there were stones and timber everywhere, which could be used to build a camp and save money for young and old. Everything is ready, just wait for Luo Yunxiao's order.

Luo Yunxiao didn't say a word, and auctioned 3,000 taels of gold on the spot, which was equivalent to 36,000 taels of silver, and let Du Cangran and Zhao Fengshan serve as supervisors. And out of the thousands of soldiers, five hundred able-bodied men were selected to build the camp. The rest of the people are responsible for the watch in turns.

Now, Luo Yunxiao has another very important thing that he must act immediately, that is, using lead stone to make movable type. In the future plane, he once made a set when he was in college. Therefore, at this moment, let him do it again, it can be regarded as easy and familiar. It took him nearly a month and a half to finally produce a set of movable type carved with more than 4,000 lead bars. At the same time, the construction of their new camp was completed. This is really a double happiness!

At this time, the sowing season has passed, and the seeds of nearly 2,000 Shi Youxiang No. 8 have been hidden in the base of Gongye Lithium and Titanium since they were brought out by Yu Shichang from Duxiu Cottage.

Luo Yunxiao was originally going to sow this batch of super rice seeds in Duxiu Cottage during this summer planting. Who would have expected that Yang Tianba would unite with the forces outside the village to annex the cottage, which made Luo Yunxiao's plan completely fail. Now it happens that there are 30,000 acres of land in Shi Chong's house beckoning to him, and in the spring of next year, all these 30,000 acres of fields will be planted with the millet of Youxiang No. 8, and the next days will be complete.

But those are the plans for next year, and there is still so much time left to be idle. So he came up with the idea of publishing a set of poetry anthologies, first going to the market to explore the way, and if the results were good, publishing more poetry books, in order to earn a lot of silver taels.

When Luo Yunxiao thought of the idea of publishing an anthology of poetry, he was actually taken aback by his own idea. You must know that in this time and space, all works are written by hand. At this moment, Bi Sheng's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather At this time, people did not have the slightest idea of the advanced technical concept of printing.

Even if he Luo Yunxiao tidied it out now, he can't figure out how big this market is. Everything is still unknown.

Moreover, during this period, most people were still using bamboo slips, and there were not many people using cloth, let alone paper. He had also sold A4 paper brought from later generations in the capital. 20 sheets of A4 paper and a pen are sold for 20 taels of silver, which is almost equal to 1 tael of silver for a piece of A4 paper. At that time, 1 tael of silver could buy 2.5 stone of rice, enough for a family of eight people to eat for more than one month.

Now I don't have much A4 paper left, and I can't meet the share of this printed poetry anthology. And the paper of this era sold outside is really ridiculously expensive, and the expensive one is a bit evil. If you print a large number of products without knowing the market, if you can't sell them, you won't be bankrupt at that time, but the huge loss is certain.

After thinking about it for several days, Luo Yunxiao thought about it again. In the end, it was decided to print 500 copies of {Selected Poems}, sell them on the market, and test the water temperature. Look at the sales of these poetry collections and make further plans.

Each book of poems requires twenty sheets of paper, plus some ink and other consumption, and roughly calculated, the cost of one volume is about sixteen taels of silver. You must know that the total expenses of a poor family every month are less than two taels of silver. Therefore, the cost price of each {poetry anthology} is already too expensive. It really makes most people have a feeling of sighing at the poetry.

Then the next question is the custom price. How much silver is appropriate? Luo Yunxiao solicited the opinions of Deputy Master Du, the Seven Hall Masters, the Seven Deputy Hall Masters, the Four Elders, the Chief Guard, Captain Ning, and Shi Chong. I was going to combine the prices quoted to him by these people and then compromise them, so I sold them according to the compromise figures, but Xu Jiayun reported an extremely outrageous figure that completely made it yellow. The price of each volume of the others was less than one hundred and twenty taels, but she actually quoted one thousand taels and one copies, and the price figure after the compromise was two hundred and twelve taels and one copies. It's more than 10 times the cost price! This price makes people feel very sadistic.

In Luo Yunxiao's concept, setting such a high price is no different from grabbing money. So the second round of quotations was carried out, and the unreliable Xu Jiayun was excluded in this round. The quotations of those 21 people were combined in one place, and then compromised, and the average price obtained was one hundred and eight taels of silver per book, which was also quite high. In the end, Luo Yunxiao made a decision and set the price at 88 taels of silver, which means that it is sent and sent.

All 500 copies of the {Selected Poems} were printed. The most important thing is that the five poems and five words that appear above are all freshly baked. Among them, the poems include Meng Haoran's {Chunxiao} and Wang Wei's {Acacia}, two popular five-character poems, as well as Li Bai's {Chaofa White Emperor City}, Du Mu's {Qingming} and Wang Han's {Liangzhou Ci} and other three classic poems. In addition, the five poems were also debuted for the first time in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Because if you write each poem, it would seem a bit verbose, so I won't show them one by one here.

This {anthology of poetry} has not yet come out, and it has already caused quite a stir internally. Xu Jiayun, Yu Shichang, Zhao Fengshan and a Shi Chong are all people with some cultural background, seeing so many poems and songs all of a sudden, it is like a mouse seeing rice and a dog seeing poop. Oh! Sorry, that's an overdescription. But at least a few people like it and refuse to let go. Some people may say that the author is uneducated, so it should be called love. Hehe, I just said that I like it and won't let go, what's wrong? What's wrong? Why not? Isn't that the same meaning? Want to break the law with a few more words? Ahh If you don't pay attention, how can you tell the truth in your heart?

Luo Yunxiao decided to give a copy to the internal high-level people first, of course, it can't be free. The money was deducted from their monthly pay. Even so, these guys are still happy and.

Only the book of the great benevolent man Shi Chong was given away for free. Who made the family selflessly dedicate so much to the Duxiu cottage. The remaining 478 copies were decided to be sold in five locations at the same time. In Jinyang County, Jiang Wuji is responsible for leading people to sell this point; Fushan Town, Jinyang County, is responsible for leading people to sell; Baihua Town, Jinyang County, Zhu Muxia is responsible for leading people to sell; Qimen County, Du Cangran is responsible for leading people to sell; In Ximang County, Luo Yunxiao and Xu Jiayun are in charge. Fushan Town is supposed to be Miss Xu Er's hometown, and it should be appropriate for her to go. Due to various considerations, in the end, Elder Yu, who was old and serious, was sent to preside over the overall situation.

Originally, I planned to set up a point in Dongyang County, Jiangzhou County, where Qian Duoduo was located, but later considered that because the road was too far away, it was not very convenient to move, so I canceled the establishment of a point here.

In the first few days, although each point made a little bit of success every day, the total sales volume of the five points did not exceed 20 copies per day. Luo Yunxiao even felt that the problem must be in the price. But this time, he was really wrong. People don't come to buy because of the price, but because the form is so novel that people can't find a clue for a while.

Because this novel printed product is the first time people have seen it, it is impossible to imagine it for a while, and it is not clear what it is. There are always a few people who are a little more daring, and after buying it home and secretly admiring it, they are suddenly shocked. They showed off to their relatives and friends, and this undoubtedly unveiled the mystery of the {poetry anthology}.

Then, from the sixth day of the {Poetry Anthology} sale, good news came from all over the country. On this very day, the {poetry anthology} in all five places was sold out almost simultaneously, and all of them were sold out. This is not the end, there are a large number of people who want to increase the price to subscribe, and many people even add two hundred taels of silver to a book. This amount of information made Luo Yunxiao a little uncontrollable. This was really unexpected!

Luo Yunxiao did not hesitate, and decided to print another 500 copies immediately, raising the price of each volume to 150 taels of silver. As a result, in less than two days, all of them were sold out. So a third reprint was made, this time 800 copies were printed, and the price was raised to 200 taels of silver per volume. Even Luo Yunxiao felt a little scary at this price. But something even more terrible than that happened.
