Chapter 126: One Hit Kills
In the past few days, Yang Hao has purchased more than 200 copies of "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" from the Tang Dynasty, which are sold out every day.
With Wang Zhengsheng's storytelling, the popularity of this novel was something Du He didn't expect.
Yang Hao came to the door twice, wanting Du He to find more craftsmen to speed up the printing speed, but Du He refused.
In the past few days, Du Ho's biggest pleasure every day is to go in and out of the furniture factory, take a small book made by himself, look east and west, and record it by the way.
The whole furniture factory was wondering what Du He was doing.
When the old man couldn't help but ask, Du Ho called it "research", which made everyone confused.
If you are someone else, now that you have a carousel chair and the best-selling novel "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", you may be very satisfied. These two things, although they can't make money every day, it is not a problem for Du He to earn thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars a day.
It's a pity that Duhe is ambitious.
If a person has no ambition, he is no different from a salted fish.
His Majesty Li Er's ambition is to let the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty conquer all directions and become the emperor praised by everyone.
And Du He's ambition is by no means just to be a wealthy gentleman, from the moment he established the furniture factory, he had an idea in his heart: in this strange era, to build a commercial empire, this emperor, even more vast than His Majesty Li Er's Tang Empire......
The establishment of a furniture factory and a Datang study is only the first step in the long march.
Du He investigated, but he was looking for problems and making plans for the next step.
After the investigation, he locked himself in his room all day and began to write and paint, even Yang Hao came a few times, but he couldn't see him in person.
……
As the sun sets, the soft afterglow shines on the ground, as if gilding the shoddy slate with a layer of gold, which is particularly charming.
Zhang Jian looked hurried, walked through the alleys, and finally knocked on a door.
The door opened, and the little guy who opened the door saw Zhang Jian and hurriedly said, "You are here, the young master is waiting for you!" ”
Zhang Jian nodded expressionlessly, walked into the gate, walked through the spacious courtyard, and in the backyard, he saw Changsun Chong sitting on a revolving wooden chair from a long distance.
He stepped forward and took a deep look, "Young master, I have already got all the things you want." ”
After Zhang Jian finished speaking, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Changsun Chong with both hands respectfully.
The eldest grandson Chong took it and looked at it, suddenly threw it away, stood up, and snorted: "This Du He, it will really make money, my eldest grandson's family is also rich in Chang'an City, and there are many businesses, but there is nothing like Du He, tsk...... Just this revolving wooden chair and "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", over time, wouldn't Du He's wealth surpass that of Young Master Ben or even the eldest grandson's family? No, we must not let Du He be so arrogant......"
Zhang Jian stood aside, cautious, not daring to speak.
Last time, he found someone to go to the furniture factory for Changsun Chong to make trouble, how did he know that he was killed by Zhang Ergou's idiots, and he was beaten by Du He, and after he came back, he was counted down by Changsun Chong, and he was cautious in doing things during this time, for fear of making mistakes.
The eldest grandson Chong walked around the courtyard a few times, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Young Master Ben, there is a way." ”
He came to Zhang Jian and asked, "You mean, according to the news you heard, the price of "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" sold by Du He is 100 wen per copy, and the cost is only less than 60 wen, and if we find someone to copy this book, the cost of each copy is only about 50 wen, are you sure?" ”
Zhang Jian nodded affirmatively: "Young master, it won't be wrong, this is the news that I spent a lot of money to hear from inside the furniture factory, it is said that the printing method used by Du He, although the speed is fast, the cost is relatively high." ”
"It's really profitable, hum, it seems that Du He wants to make money and wants to go crazy, but this young master can't let him be so arrogant, you quickly send me dozens of literate people, bring them all here, from tomorrow, I will copy this "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", the faster the better, hum, ten days later, I want to give Du He a surprise! He sells 100 wen, let's sell 70 wen, I want to make his book, not a single one of them sell! The eldest grandson said confidently.
He added: "This time, Young Master Ben will kill with one blow!" ”
Zhang Jian agreed and hurriedly went to arrange.
Early the next morning, dozens of people arrived in this courtyard and began to transcribe "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties".
The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, ten days passed.
Changsun Chong has already had more than 200 copies of "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" copied, which naturally cost a lot of money.
According to the price he set at 70 Wen, he can probably earn about 3,000 Wen.
However, his purpose is not to make money, but to deal with Duhe.
In the evening of this day, Du He was in the courtyard, setting up a big pot, and when he called two cooks to stir-fry the tea leaves, suddenly Lu Bu hurriedly walked in.
"Young master, someone just threw this thing in, but when I chased it out, the person had already left."
Lu Bu said, took out a rolled up piece of paper and handed it to Du He.
The note was rolled into a thin cylinder with a ribbon tied to it.
Du He opened it and saw a short sentence on it: someone had copied the Sui and Tang Romances of the Tang Dynasty and was ready to sell it at a price of 70 Wen.
Du He just glanced at it, then threw the note into the firewood, and when the flames flickered, there was nothing.
His face didn't move, and he waved his hand, "Lu Bu, you go down." What's the news, I'll report again! ”
When Lu Bu left, Du He's face showed a solemn look.
A few streets away from Datang Furniture Factory, Zhang Jian glanced back and saw that there was nothing abnormal, so he leaned against the wall of a large family and gasped for breath.
His vest was soaking wet.
He was the one who sent the letter.
After resting for a while, Zhang Jiancai said: "Du He, you once gave me 500 wen money, saved my mother's life, today I Zhang Jian risked death to send the news to you, from then on, we don't owe each other, I, Zhang Jian, am the eldest grandson's person, naturally I want to help the eldest grandson defeat you!" ”
As he spoke, Zhang Jian strode into the distance, and behind him, night fell, and it was already dark.
Early the next morning.
The eldest grandson Chong took people and arrived at the door of Cuiwei Building.
Today, he is determined to win.
It's just that as soon as he got off the carriage, Changsun Chong was stunned.
Because he saw Du He sitting at the gate of Cuiwei Building, with his legs cocked, looking comfortable, Yang Hao, the shopkeeper of Cuiwei Building, stood aside like a dog, fanning Du He.
The eldest grandson Chong pulled his legs and walked over, and said from afar: "I didn't expect Du He to be so boring, come to Cuiwei Building early in the morning to bask in the sun, you are better, I originally wanted to go to the Lai Guo Mansion to inform you, but now it seems that there is no need, Du He, today Young Master Ben has prepared a huge surprise for you, I hope you will not be frightened at that time." ”
