Chapter 191: Close your eyes and find trouble
The time has entered September, and the north of the town, which is close to the outside of the plug, has gradually faded its hot coat, and the temperature is getting lower and lower, and the cold air is freezing and making people shiver uncontrollably.
The grain planted by the government soldiers earlier has already reached the harvest season, but the grain planted by the immigrants later will have to wait another month or two.
And in such a cold weather, there will be a harvest next, and many people's hearts can't help but be clouded.
"Third master, this old slave went out for a stroll, and found that a new bookstore had opened in the city, buy ten get one free, and the old slave went to take a look, guess what?" Zheng Liu waved more than a dozen books in his hand, and sold Guan Zi triumphantly.
"If you have something to say, just fart!" Zheng Shanqi, who was holding a brazier for warmth, had a dark face and scolded Zheng Liu.
Didn't you see that your master was about to freeze out of the? Guess what's meow, guess your sister!
"No!" I wanted to show off, but I was scolded, Zheng Liu instantly and honestly pushed those books down in front of Zheng Shanqi, and said respectfully: "Third master, these books only cost five hundred yuan a piece, buy ten get one free, buy one hundred get fifteen, buy one thousand get two hundred, buy ten thousand get two hundred free, buy ten thousand get two thousand and five free, the more you buy, the more you give......"
Hearing that a book was only sold for five hundred yuan, Zheng Shanqi couldn't help but be a little curious, took out a book and looked at it, the title of the book was the Three Character Classic, which he had never heard of.
Turn a page, the first page is a guide, a bullshit guide, that is, this book was written by King Qi himself, and the purpose is to help young children get started.
'At the beginning of man, nature is good......
I looked at it with contempt and disdain, but the more I looked down, the more shocked I was in my heart.
The whole text is composed of three characters, which is called the three-character classic.
And it is catchy to read, which contains a lot of knowledge, geography, astronomy, history, human ethics and filial piety, etc., although it is not as dazzling as the Confucian classics, and it is too superficial for itself, but for the enlightenment of young children, this book is also quite suitable.
The good or bad of enlightenment has a very important impact on a young child, and it can even directly affect his future.
Therefore, the royal family and their families will go to great lengths to find a famous Confucian to enlighten the young children in the family, but those enlightenment methods in the past are a little difficult for children of that age, and they are not as easy to understand as the three-character scripture in their hands.
Letting go of contempt and disdain, and replacing it with a rigorous attitude, Zheng Shanqi took out the second book, the surname of the hundred families.
'Zhao Qian, Sun Li, Zhou, Wu, Zheng Wang, ......' has no knowledge of literature and history, but the rhyme is not bad throughout, and it is also catchy to read, and if you can recognize all the words of the hundred family names, then you basically know more than half of the words.
This one isn't bad either, it's just ......
Seeing the ranking of the Zheng family, Zheng Shanqi threw the book back on the table with a look of disgust, and said indignantly: "Fart, Zhao Qiansun? How old are they? Why is it at the top? Although the Zheng family is not ranked first, it is at least the top three big families, and it is only ranked seventh in this book? β
An ordinary family name, but Zheng Shanqi saw a little different way, whether this book can be spread in the world or not, widely spread in the world, it will have a great impact on their Zheng family, those who don't know, think that Zhao Qiansun and the three families are the most powerful families in the Tang Dynasty, but the real situation is, who knows the three of them?
"No, King Qi has to give the old man an explanation for this! Why did the Zheng family rank behind? The old man is not convinced! "The more I think about it, the more angry I feel, it is related to the dignity of the Zheng family, and this matter must be clarified by King Qi.
The big family has the dignity of the big family, even if the emperor comes to rank in this order, the five surnames and seven wangs must also be ranked first, as for how to fight next, it is their internal problem, but what is the matter with the three surnames of Zhao Qian and Sun?
β¦β¦
Books are the ladder of human progress.
It seems too far away, and the bookstore located in the north of the town is currently the only bookstore in Datang.
There are no unique books that have been handed down here, there are few famous books such as Confucian classics, and the books on the table for sale are all names that have never been heard of.
But there is still an endless stream of people who come to buy books, and it is difficult to buy a thousand miles of horses in ancient times, but there is also a saying that it is difficult to buy a book for a thousand dollars.
For cultural people, the preciousness of books is even more important than their wives and children.
In these years, knowledge was almost monopolized in the hands of the nobles of the family, and it was not easy for ordinary people to read a book.
There are only a few general books circulating outside, everyone will know you, but the children of the family will, you won't, you don't have enough resources, you want to become a talent? It can only be said to be conjecture and naΓ―ve.
The Sui Dynasty pioneered the imperial examination system, why was it not strongly opposed by the family? Because the knowledge is in their hands, the final selection of the imperial examination can only be the children of these families.
Zhenbei, a small bookstore, is quietly breaking this convention.
Disciple Gui, Three Character Classics, Thousand Character Texts, Hundred Family Names, Former Xianwen, Mingxian Collection, Zhongyong and other eleven voucher books are a complete set, and the purchase of a full set only needs to pay ten volumes, and it takes five hundred yuan to buy alone.
The mean is not an enlightenment book for young children, but it is particularly important for a person's character development, so Li Yuanji also put it in this set of books for future reading.
It is a bit too much to say that it is crowded, but the cashier of the bookstore has never been idle, and the clerk is busy, holding a set of books and constantly running back and forth to replenish the stock.
"How many have you sold?" Seeing that the bookstore's business is booming, Li Yuanji is also happy from the bottom of his heart, these are all financial roads, if these books are trafficked to all parts of Chang'an, how much will it be?
Diversification, this is the core routine of running Qi country, big market, big hotel, entertainment city, theater, each of which can bring a lot of income for itself, although compared to the entire Qi country, this income is insignificant, but this is just the beginning, good days are still to come.
"I don't know if it's small, but it's sold a lot anyway, and it hasn't stopped until now." Ma Wu scratched his head, and the ghost knew how many sets had been sold?
"Let's go! Check it out! Li Yuanji also felt as if he was asking too much, how it was sold at night, why bother for a while?
"It's still a construction site over there, and there's nothing to see!" Ma Wu nuns his mouth and secretly complains.
"Qian Zhuang is still of great use to this king, how can you do it if you don't look at it more?" His good temper made Ma Wudu dare to complain from time to time, but that could only be in inconsequential matters.
When he came to the bookstore, Ma Wu didn't dare to say a word, and went to Qianzhuang, because he had to go once a day, and he would leave after a turn, and even Ma Wu knew what every place in Qianzhuang was used for.
But even so, Li Yuanji still took the trouble to repeat it over and over again.
The money village is very large, divided into the front yard and the back yard, the whole yard adopts concrete structure, the thickest place reaches half a meter, the thinnest is about 30 centimeters, the bottom of the money village is a huge money vault, only in the backyard there is an entrance, according to the assumption, the backyard is to garrison.
"Your Highness...... You wait......" Zheng Shanqi's frozen hands were red, and he chased after Li Yuanji with a quick pace under his feet, and hurriedly called out Li Yuanji, who was going to enter a construction site.
"Isn't Zheng Gong unwell? How did you run out? Looking at Zheng Shanqi, Li Yuanji secretly inquired with some curiosity.
I had already invited this product to come out and take a look at the changes in Zhenbei City, but this product would rather stay in the hotel than come out on the grounds that he was ill.
Now he's out, and he's got a book in his hand.
"Your Highness, the old man just wants to ask, what's going on?" Shaking the hundred family names in his hand, Zheng Shanqi asked angrily.
"Is there anything wrong with this king selling books?" Li Yuanji was stunned, didn't this product take a fancy to this business? Immediately said: "If you want to return it, go to the bookstore, as long as it is not dirty and rotten, it can be refunded at the original price if it does not affect the sales, if you want to print or go to the bookstore, there is a full-time person in charge of printing, of course, if you want to buy tens of thousands of copies, or print tens of thousands of copies, you can also talk to this king." β
"Let's talk about this later, doesn't His Highness think that he should give an explanation to the old man?" Li Yuanji's pretending not to know attitude made Zheng Shanqi a little annoyed, and he waved the surname of the hundred families in his hand again and again, and asked.
"Confess? What do you want to account? "Li Yuanji is a little dizzy, he made up this book by himself, why should he explain it to you? Give a hairy explanation?
The more calm and calm Li Yuanji's expression was, the more impatient Zheng Shanqi became: "In terms of financial resources and fame, the Zheng family is not weaker than other families, why can it only rank seventh in this book?" How can Zhao Qian and Sun be the three families? Can it be in the top three? I am afraid that it is difficult for people in the world to agree with this arrangement. β
Li Yuanji desperately snatched the book of 100 family names from Zheng Shanqi's hand, and then turned directly to the last page and threw it to Zheng Shanqi again: "The explanation you want is here, please come to trouble someone after reading the book next time, you look like this, it's easy to be beaten to death, don't you know?" β
By...... Beaten to death?
Zheng Shanqi's face was full of iron, you actually said that the old man would be beaten to death? Who in the world dares to have the guts?
Well, look down at the book!
Mowing the grass in the nest......
The ranking order of this book is based on the number of surnames of the population in the country, and individual surnames are not ranked in any particular order because they are not fully statistical. β
"This ...... This is not appropriate, how can there be a ranking by the number of people, and the ranking should take into account all factors to be more convincing. Rao gave an explanation later, and Zheng Shanqi didn't see it because he was anxious, but he still didn't feel satisfied with this ranking.
As soon as this book comes out, it will inevitably increase the prestige of the three surnames of Zhao Qian and Sun, and for several major families, the impact will definitely be there.
Li Yuanji glanced at Zheng Shanqi with disdain and said, "What's wrong?" This king's Li family is also ranked fourth, and your Zheng family is ranked seventh, what's wrong? If you dare to BB this king to give you the last row, do you believe it? β
