The 291st rush to buy
After drinking a few glasses of wine, Lu Xun got off the boat, and watched the boat that Lu Ren was riding gradually moving away from the edge of the dock with full of heart. Go tell Sun Quan that Lu Ren arrived at Lu's wharf in Wu County? Lu Xun is not so stupid, so I won't say much else, according to the current situation, I want to catch Lu Ren? Forget it! When your Sun Quan's men and horses come, Lu Ren's ship doesn't know how many miles out of the sea it has drifted out of. To put it mildly, Lu Ren dared to come to Wujun Wharf, why didn't he make the corresponding preparations?
Besides, Lu Ren is the suzerain of the Yizhou branch of the Lu clan, and he is neither at fault nor a big benefactor for the Lu clan of Wu County, Lu Xun simply betrayed Lu Ren in order to curry favor with Sun Quan? Not to mention that Lu Xun's own clan concept would not allow him to do this, even if Lu Xun really did this, then how could he stay in the Lu clan of Wu County in the future? Don't look at it, in the hearts of people in that era, the clan was a much more important existence than the boss.
There was a few words of gossip, only that Lu Xun watched Lu Ren's boat go away, and he frowned and said secretly in his heart: "Brother's game of chess is really big enough...... Originally, I thought that my brother was just using Shanyue to protect the foundation of Yizhou, but it wasn't until my brother said those words to me that I realized that my brother was actually playing with a snipe and a clam fight. If Shanyue is powerful, my brother's Yizhou is naturally worry-free, and because he has always been good friends with Shanyue, it is easier to get the recognition of the Shanyue people; On the other hand, if Wu Hou gains power, the Shanyue tribes will inevitably go to Yizhou more often after being defeated and fleeing, and the household registration of Yizhou will be enriched, and the strength of the elder brother will still be greatly increased.
"What's even worse is that Cao Gong is about to go south in a few days, even if Wu Hou has defeated many Shanyue tribes, he is really powerless to further conquer and pacify those Shanyue tribes who have fled, so once these Shanyue tribes flee, Wu Hou will not even be able to stop them. By that time, the elder brother's wings were already full, and he had the strength to compete with Wu Hou...... Hehe, this brother of mine always says in front of people that he has no ambition and no wisdom, but who can guess how long-term he actually thinks?
"It's just that in this way, there will inevitably be an earth-shattering battle between Wu Hou and his brother...... No, even if it doesn't come out of these things now, the battle between Wu Hou and his brother is inevitable, it's just a matter of time, because there is still the Cao Guild in the north who will do something between Wu Hou and his brother.
"My brother may have considered these things a long time ago, and he can only do this self-improvement and self-preservation plan as a last resort, right? My brother also told me just now that he actually had no intention of being an enemy of either side, and now that I think about it carefully, what my brother said is not necessarily a lie. After all, in this troubled world, there are too many people who can't help themselves...... I can't help myself, I really can't help myself! It's just that if this continues, our Wujun Lu clan has finally settled down again, and we don't know what kind of predicament we will encounter. ”
Thinking about these things in his mind, Lu Xun was also walking back step by step. Walking to a lively place, Lu Xun saw that it was extremely lively, so he subconsciously stopped to see why it was so lively. After taking a closer look, Lu Xun's heart was immediately dumbfounded, because this is the general warehouse of Lu's industry...... The total warehouse is not as simple as it sounds. If it is to use modern words, then the accurate word should be: General Wholesale Department.
As mentioned earlier, Lu Ren rushed to market a large number of books during the Spring Festival in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, in addition to the prose book "Xiaoyao Sword Immortal Record", of course, a batch of four books and five classics were also printed, but the most important thing is the works of Zheng Xuanzheng and the old man.
Just as everyone has everyone's point of view, after the Four Books and Five Classics were written by the pre-Qin princes, there will be people who will annotate and explain them in every era, such as Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi and others doing this job. Of course, these two guys misinterpret a lot of things, but in a sense, we have to admit that what Dong Zhongshu or Rebuke Xi did was very poor if it was judged by future generations, but it was more in line with the needs of the political atmosphere of the era in which they lived.
Now, of course, I don't want to talk about these cultural concepts, but to say that this kind of work by Zheng Xuan and Zheng was a great treasure for the literati at that time, and its significance is probably similar to that of Christians for the Bible, Buddhists for Buddhist scriptures, and ****** for the Quran...... Originally, Confucianism is actually a very strange school, and some people have said that although Confucianism is not a religion in the true sense, it actually has almost the same nature as a religious sect?
In short, after Lu Ren's "pre-sale advertisement" before, several major general wholesale departments have already gathered a large number of literati waiting for the sale and businessmen with keen business opportunities. Just that scene, in Lu Ren's own words...... It's really Lu Ren's own words, in fact, Lu Ren came to Wu County, didn't he just want to see with his own eyes whether his operation was successful? In Lu Ren's own words, this Nima reminded Lu Ren of the scene when some special goods of his time were about to be sold.
If it's just like this, but Lu Ren wants to make a big move, where can it be as simple as ordinary sales? For example, the lively scene that Lu Xun is encountering now is actually a certain scholar who finally snapped up a set of Zheng Xuan's books and opened one of them, and found Zheng Xuan's autograph behind the cover.
What is the significance of an idol's signature? The little gentleman didn't pay attention at first, but habitually compared the books they had purchased with other friends, and then found that only the one in his hand had Zheng Xuan's autograph, but the books in the hands of others did not. This time the matter is very big, many people surrounded this scholar, shouting that they would buy this book with Zheng Xuan's signature in the hand of this scholar at a high price, but where is this winning scholar willing to sell?
Immediately afterwards, a small number of people found Zheng Xuan's signature, so they were ecstatic, and there were people who pretended to collect it calmly and quietly...... Based on the relationship between Lu Ren and Zheng Xuan, Lu Ren asked Zheng Xuan to sign some names in the books on sale this time, Zheng Xuan was still very happy, a total of 3,000 copies were signed, of which there were probably more than 100 copies of Zheng Xuan in addition to the signature of the inscription such as "Wangjun is diligent" and other words, and then these 3,000 copies were divided into three batches by Lu Ren and sent to the territory of Cao Liu and Sun for sale. And as soon as this hand is played, the literati in the territory of Cao, Liu and Sun are going crazy.
Lu Xun looked at such a scene, and he was also a little nervous, after all, Lu Xun himself was also a person who belonged to the literati class, and these books naturally had a considerable attraction to Lu Xun. Fortunately, Lu Xun is the family, and Lu Xun left a few sets when the goods from Lu Ren's side were transported, so naturally there is no need to rush to buy these books with these current literati. But when I suddenly heard that these books had Zheng Xuan's signature in them......
was thinking about something untouchable, but Lu Xun was suddenly accidentally bumped into by someone in a hurry. Seeing that the man hurriedly apologized to Lu Xun and then wanted to rush over to buy it, but when he looked up and hit Lu Xun in the face, the two of them were stunned together:
"Discipline?" "Bo Yan?"
The public discipline is naturally Lu Xun's clan brother, and he should be Lu Ji, the official sect leader of the Lu clan. After the two of them were stunned together for a while, Lu Ji hurriedly grabbed Lu Xun and said happily: "Bo Yan, you are very good here!" Come with me and stop today's book sale! ”
Lu Xun was stunned again: "Gongji, what are you doing?" ”
Lu Ji looked a little angry: "!" When you and I left some scriptures before, why didn't you find that a small number of books actually had Mr. Zheng's autographed inscriptions? Bo Yan, come with me, after stopping the sale, let people find out all the books with Mr. Zheng's own inscription! ”
It's true that I didn't find it, but Lu Ren wanted to make a big move, and he had already expected several main sellers, such as Lu Xun and Lu Ji, if they had known about this in advance, they would definitely pick it out first and then sell it, so wouldn't Lu Ren's careful thinking be in vain? So what Lu Xun and Lu Ji got was actually the "hardcover version" specially arranged by Lu Ren, and the ones signed by Mr. Zheng were scattered among the "paperback versions" on sale. And the people who got the so-called "hardcover version" are Liu Biao, Liu Qi, Liu Cong, as well as Cao Cao and Xun Yu in Jingzhou. Anyway, you people in charge don't make trouble for Lao Tzu.
At this time, Lu Xun looked at Lu Ji who was angry, and then looked at the crowd over there who had already snapped up some of the people who were starting to be chaotic, so he could only shake his head helplessly and then solidify Lu Ji, and persuaded: "Don't make a mistake with public discipline!" If you really do that, I'm afraid that we will be scolded by the entire Jiangdong scholars! ”
Lu Ji was puzzled: "But ......"
Lu Xun added a little strength and pulled Lu Ji back, and then sighed and said: "If you really want Mr. Zheng's signed books, go to Yizhou when you have time, and ask my brother for help?" ”
Lu Ji then understood, and suddenly patted his head and smiled: "That's right! Haha, I suddenly heard about this, and everyone was confused! ”
Lu Xun shook his head, and said secretly in his heart: "Brother's tricks are really endless, why not be the only one who can make mistakes?" Don't say it's you, Wu Hou and I didn't suffer a big loss from my brother? ”
The same situation happened in Jingzhou and Hebei. In contrast, Jingzhou is better, to be precise, there is nothing to say, many literati grabbed a set of sets, and then went home to flip through the books. And on Cao Cao's side...... (To be continued.) )
