164.Chapter 164
"Which of these two is the most likely, and how to deal with it?"
Princess Danyang was a little anxious, Tang Zhou smiled lightly, and said: "Both are possible, but the probability of the second one is greater, although those poor children cherish books, but they will not let themselves suffer compensation for a book, of course, except for some paranoid people; As for how to deal with it, it needs to be treated separately according to different situations.

Princess Danyang bowed her head and said, "Then how should we treat them separately?" ”
"Do not tolerate the self-thieves, but make them repay twice the price of the books and never lend them any more books."
"This ...... They don't have much money in the first place, and isn't it too harsh to ask them to pay back twice the price? ”
Tang Zhou smiled: "It's just to be harsh, the reason why they guard and steal is because they feel that the cost of guarding and stealing is not high enough, but if they feel that the cost of guarding and stealing is very high, if they want to guard and steal again, should they think about it?" ”
As soon as Tang Zhou said this, Princess Danyang already understood, originally she just asked those who lost books to repay the original price, so those poor disciples felt that even if they repaid, they would not suffer a loss, so they all paid for the books themselves, but now they have to repay twice, then they will lose a lot, and they dare to guard and steal again.
It's just that after Princess Danyang understood, she also had some doubts: "It's indeed good to be harsh, but how can we distinguish whether they are guarding and stealing or being framed?" ”
"There is no need to distinguish, whether it is a prison guard stealing or being framed, it must be punished in this way, and as long as it is punished in this way, those people will not dare to guard and steal, as for being framed, when they find that the consequences of losing books are very serious, they will naturally regard books as more important than life, and at that time, it is not easy for others to steal their books."
"As for those who were really framed, Her Royal Highness the princess might as well send someone to investigate and find out the culprit, and the person who lost the book can also arrange for him to copy a copy of the lost book, when those who want to frame the children of the poor family find that stealing their books has given those children of the poor a better chance to read, then will they still do the thing of framing people?"
After Tang Zhou finished saying these things in a row, Princess Danyang was a little confused for a while, because she felt that Tang Zhou said too much, and the aggravated punishment could make the children of the poor family cherish the books more, but it also made the people who wanted to stop the children of the poor from reading more motivated to steal books, because it would prevent the children of the poor from borrowing books, but let the children of the poor families copy the books, but it broke the plan of those who stole books.
This is interlocking, as long as the measures are appropriate, whether it is to increase the punishment or let the children of the poor families copy the books, they can effectively stop the occurrence of lost books.
Princess Danyang thought about what Tang Zhou said for about half a pillar of incense, and when she finally understood what Tang Zhou really wanted to express, she realized how useful Tang Zhou's two suggestions were, increasing the punishment and copying the book are both punishments for the children of the poor family, and at the same time, it also makes it more difficult for those who want to steal books to steal the books, and even makes their behavior of stealing books meaningless.
After thinking about this, Princess Danyang nodded slightly and said, "Yes, what about the third question, the Royal Bookstore is not well managed, and the big customers of the powerful and the family do not come to the Royal Bookstore to buy books, what should I do, do you have a way to let them buy them?" ”
Tang Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, this is the scope of doing business, if Your Highness is willing, you can hire a business wizard and let him help Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Princess Danyang glanced at Tang Zhou, and said a little unreasonably: "I like to look for you, how about it." ”
Tang Zhou shrugged, a little speechless, and said: "Okay, I'll give you a few ideas for Her Royal Highness Princess, a big reason why those powerful people and families don't come to the Royal Bookstore to buy books is that the books sold in the Royal Bookstore can be bought from other bookstores, and those bookstores may be cheaper in order to appease these powerful people and families, and those powerful people and families have resistance to the Royal Bookstore, so do you say they will still come to buy them?" ”
Saying that, Tang Zhou picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea with some pride, in his opinion, he was a business wizard, and he was indeed qualified to be proud if he could see these things clearly.
But Princess Danyang rolled her eyes at him: "I and the saint have thought of what you said, but what should I do, what should I do, is it possible to ask the saint to decree that some books are not allowed to be sold in those bookstores?" ”
I have to say that Princess Danyang rolled her eyes and looked very good, so much so that Tang Zhou, who was drinking tea, suddenly looked a little stupid, hiring a woman, wonderful!
And just when Tang Zhou was crazy, Princess Danyang slapped him on the back of his hand: "Look at what, answer the question quickly." ”
"Oh...... In fact, Her Royal Highness the princess said that it is not bad, stipulating that other bookstores are not allowed to sell books related to the imperial examination, so that the royal bookstore will become a monopoly, and those families and powerful people who want to buy these books have to come to the royal bookstore. When Tang Zhou spoke, he showed a wicked smile.
But after Princess Danyang heard this, she was a little angry: "Okay, tell you the right thing, you know that this will not work, I have been founding the Tang Dynasty for so many years, and the court has never competed with the people for profit, not to mention that this also involves the freedom and power of the powerful and the family to buy books, if you really do it as you said, Chang'an City has to be chaotic, and the businessmen see that the court is competing with them for profit, and they must not make trouble, plus the secret manipulation of the powerful and the family, the consequences are not what you can imagine." ”
Danyang was really a little angry, Tang Zhou saw this, and hurriedly surrendered, and said: "Since Her Royal Highness the princess and the saint are not allowed to do this suggestion, then we can only find another way to find some books that are of interest to the powerful and the family and have no other bookstores to sell." ”
"My Datang has strict requirements for the distribution of books, but even so, as long as it does not violate the regulations, any bookstore can sell any book, the Royal Bookstore has a full range of books, but there is no shortage of these in other bookstores, and now we can find books that other bookstores don't have."
After thinking about it for a while, what Princess Danyang said also makes sense, since the exclusive respect for Confucianism, the imperial court only needs the content of a few books, these books are the mainstream, and although other books are also available, but there are not many real books to buy, the books under the mainstream are available in the Royal Bookstore, and other bookstores also have them, and the mainstream ones are not even if the Royal Bookstore has them, and other bookstores do not, but they also need those powerful and families to like to read it.
After figuring out the situation, Tang Zhou pondered for a moment, and after a while, he held his chin and said, "Why don't you ...... Do we compile our own new books that are popular with the powerful and the family, and publish them for sale? ”
