"You've made cards that you can sell?" Hearing Xiao Mu talk about making money by selling cards, Lin Yi asked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Wang Chengen told me this morning that a small part has been produced that can be used as a 'hardcover collector's edition'." Xiao Mu replied, "It's just that I haven't thought about how to use this part of the 'hardcover collector' and give full play to their value." ”

"Oh? How many decks are there in this 'Hardcover Collector's Edition'? Ringo asked.

"There are ten pairs in total." Xiao Mu replied, "After all, it is a 'hardcover collector', and it is still very time-consuming and laborious to make, and the patterns on it are not printed, but drawn by the painter one by one, and this kind of 'hardcover collector' does not need to prepare too much." ”

"That's true, ten pairs are completely enough, after all, rare things are expensive." Lin Yi nodded and replied, "So you don't know what to do with these ten decks of 'Hardcover Collector's Edition' cards, so you came to me to discuss?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Mu nodded and replied, taking out a deck of cards from his sleeve and handing it to Lin Yi, "This 'hardcover collector's edition' of cards is like this. ”

Lin Ye took the carefully carved agarwood box of cards, has not yet opened, from this wooden box alone, you can conclude that the price of this deck of cards must be very expensive - in fact, no matter what the box contains, this box alone, is already very valuable, of course, if you think about it this way, there is no doubt that there will be some "buy and return the pearl" meaning in it.

Lin Yi naturally could not make such a low-level mistake, compared to this exquisite box she was still more interested in the contents of the box, after opening the box, she got a stack of cards wrapped in fine silk, it is obvious that this "hardcover collector's edition" of cards is very squeamish and "shy", needs the "double protection" of the wooden box and silk, dare not come out to meet people easily.

But this "double protection" in Lin Ye's eyes is actually just a flashy thing, it is obvious that the cards made of paper are afraid of water, and wood and silk are obviously not waterproof, whether it is a beautiful box or soft silk, in terms of protecting the cards are naturally not as good as an ordinary plastic bag, of course, this is just Lin Ye's cranky thoughts for a moment, she naturally knows very well that in the time and space of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that I will not see such a thing as plastic in my lifetime.

In addition to plastic, the thing that can be waterproof in the time and space of Daming is probably the oilcloth, but using the oilcloth to wrap the cards will undoubtedly be the value of this "hardcover collector's edition" of high-end goods.

Dismantling the soft silk outside, Lin Yi finally saw the true face of Lushan of this "hardcover collector's edition" card, which is indeed the same as what Xiao Mu said, all the patterns are painted by hand, especially those cards with character portraits such as "famous ministers", which are the key to the value of this "hardcover collector's edition" card, whether it is Zhuge Liang or Yue Fei, all of them look vivid and make people love it. Although the original version of this portrait was painted by Qian Qianyi under the inspiration of Xiao Mu and the exaggerated drawing method of later comics, and the painter who made it this time was only copying, in Lin Yi's opinion, the level of the painter who copied it this time was also quite superb.

Hand-drawn by the artist, rather than stereotyped printing, this is naturally the value of the "hardcover collector's edition", because there are no two identical cards, for example, although they are both Zhuge Liang who represents the famous minister's card, there will obviously be a slight difference between the two decks of cards, and the difference itself often represents the value - there is no doubt that what is finely made by hand little by little is more expensive and valuable than the product that is printed in batches, although there is no difference between the two in essence, It's nothing more than dyeing patterns on paper with pigment ink.

After playing with this card on the mobile phone for a while, Lin Yi wrapped it in silk again, put it back in the wooden box, and then handed it back to Xiao Mu, and said, "Since it is a 'hardcover collector's edition', of course, it must be used for this Ming Dynasty whose status is second only to you, the emperor's figure." ”

Xiao Mu refused to take the card handed back by Lin Yi, and said, "That's right, this card was originally used for you to play on weekdays, so you can keep it." ”

Lin Yi realized that what he had just said seemed to have caused Xiao Mu's misunderstanding, so he forcibly stuffed the card back to Xiao Mu, and then said, "Of course I don't mean that, after all, in the time and space of Daming, you and I are considered a family." Besides, no matter how beautiful this thing is, it's just an ordinary card for a traveler like you and me, so you don't have to look at it like a baby, and the characters I just said are second only to you, referring to those princes and nobles, who are the real audience of these 'hardcover collector's'. ”

The misunderstanding just now, as well as Lin Ye's sentence "You and I are a family", made Xiao Mu feel a little nervous and embarrassed for a while, holding the cards that Lin Yi stuffed back to him, and after a long time, he continued, "So, what kind of form should be used to hand over these ten decks of cards to their hands?" ”

"Well." Lin Yi thought about it briefly and then had a plan, "A few days later, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I will use my identity as the queen to invite the wives and ladies of the princes and nobles in the capital to the palace, and play a few games of this card game with them, which will arouse their interest as much as possible." Then in a day or two, you will come forward to distribute these cards and reward them, so that when they return to the mansion, they can hold their heads high in front of their ladies, and they will naturally be grateful to you, the emperor. ”

"When you said that, I remembered that it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival!" Xiao Mu woke up like a dream and realized that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming, "This method is good, and when the wives of those royal workers and nobles get these 'hardcover collector's edition' cards, maybe they will learn from you, and then invite some women who are slightly lower than their social status to show off in front of them. ”

"Yes." Lin Yi nodded in agreement, and then reminded, "But don't print too much." ”

"Oh? Why is that? Xiao Mu was obviously puzzled, "Shouldn't you seize this opportunity to sell for more money?" ”

"It seems that you don't understand what 'hunger marketing' is." Lin Yi commented.
