Chapter 116: Ancestor Fang Yingwu

Fang Yingwu waited for Zhang Zhu to continue, but Zhang Zhu stopped talking. The two glared at each other for a long time, and Fang Yingwu asked suspiciously, "Are you done talking?" ”

"That's all that Lord Yuan explained, and I've already said it all in the next section."

Fang Yingwu was still waiting to explain what he should do, or promise himself some benefits, but he didn't expect it to stop abruptly.

After reminiscing, Fang Yingwu found that this Commander Yuan was just showing off his muscles implicitly, and used this to warn himself.

The specific situation is ever-changing, and all kinds of details are also disorganized, and it is impossible for Lord Yuan to count the hearts of the people, even for a shallow person like Wantong.

So he only grasps one point, no matter what the hell others do, just focus on the key people - you should weigh the weight yourself, and watch it.

I have to say that Commander Yuan's methods of doing things are much more sophisticated than Wantong's. zuihou, Fang Yingwu said to Zhang Zhu meaningfully: "I bother you to reply to Lord Yuan, just say that I want to visit my father, and I hope he will raise his noble hand." ”

Zhang Zhu couldn't understand the meaning of Fang Yingwu's words, but he was a person who passed back and forth, and it didn't matter if he understood it or not.

The next day, Fang Yingwu went out. When I arrived in the front hall, I saw a man in a satin robe, talking to the shopkeeper Huang. Standing next to her was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old lady, dressed in a pale green dress, with white teeth and red lips, and a bright water.

Seeing Fang Yingwu, the man stepped forward and arched his hand: "This is Fang Gongzi?" In the next surname of a Jiang, open a restaurant in Chongwenmen. I heard that Fang Gongzi was high-minded, and he was willing to give a concubine to serve around. I hope to laugh at it. ”

Fang Yingwu knew very well in his heart that this was definitely sent by Wantong. Because it is not convenient for Vantone to appear in person now. That's why I entrusted someone else to give it away.

But in any case, he could not take it. If you accept it, you owe favors, and it is equivalent to recruiting a spy by your side, and maybe it will cause some unexpected trouble.

At this time, the woman was also blessed, and said coquettishly: "I've seen the son." ”

Listening to Fang Yingwu's ears, he found that she had a bit of a Jingshi accent, so he asked, "Are you a native of Jingshi?" ”

Jiang Yuan, who sent the woman here, replied beside him: "This is also a good daughter from a poor family, but she can't afford to raise it, so she will accept it and give it to Fang Gongzi." ”

Fang Yingwu pretended to be helpless and said: "If it is a Jingshi person, I don't dare to ask for it." ”

Jiang Yuanwai asked, "Why is this?" ”

Fang Yingwu talked eloquently: "When I was in my hometown. I have heard the introduction of my predecessors, and I must not accept the locals of the capital in Beijing. There are two reasons, one is that the locals in the capital have many relatives and still like to climb the knot. If a woman is accepted, her parents, brothers, sisters, seven aunts and eight aunts come to fight the autumn breeze at every turn, and it is really unbearable.

The second is that the people of Beijing do not like to leave the capital, and after accepting a local woman from Beijing, if they want to leave Beijing one day, the woman's family will cry every day. There are many relatives who come into battle to force you to let her go, and the zuihou bamboo basket is empty.

There are these two as warnings, so I am absolutely unwilling to accept the Jingshi woman, please go back! ”

Jiang Yuanwai was stunned. I didn't expect Fang Yingwu to make such a big discussion, it seemed to be very reasonable, and it was really difficult for him to continue.

I had to say haha: "Fang Gongzi is really a caring person." But the rumors are exaggerated and should not be believed. It is not possible to generalize. So Fang Gongzi can accept it with confidence for the time being. ”

It's really like kraft candy that can't be shaken off, and it's not good to refuse strictly. Fang Ying accidentally caught a glimpse of Fang Yingshi beside him, and suddenly had an idea.

He said to Fang Yingshi: "Last time you fought off the bandits and saved my life, but I haven't rewarded you with anything yet." It's a coincidence today, take this opportunity to award this woman to you! ”

Fang Yingshi showed a little joy when he heard this, this woman seemed to look good.

Jiang Yuanwai's face changed slightly, even the woman's face changed greatly, and she was committed to Fang Yingwu, but she didn't want to commit herself to her entourage!

"Since Fang Gongzi really doesn't care, he will leave now." Without waiting for Fang Yingshi to express his position, Jiang Yuanwai and the young woman all got up and hurriedly said goodbye.

They were really afraid that if Fang Yingwu rose up and wanted to transfer the woman to his servants, it would be a waste.

can be regarded as sending them away, Fang Yingwu breathed a sigh of relief, others came to give gifts, it was difficult to accept, it was even more difficult to refuse, and it was even more difficult to refuse without hurting face.

However, he found that Fang Yingshi looked at the woman's back with resentment, looking very hurt, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, this is because they have eyes and don't know gold and jade, there are thousands of good women in the world, I will definitely find a good family for you in the future!" ”

Then Fang Yingwu wanted to go to Beicheng, because the "Zhongyi Bookstore" was opened, and he was invited to join the party, and the location was in Beicheng.

The so-called West Guidong is rich in North Sour and South Craftsman, of which North Sour refers to the many scholars in Beicheng. The Guozijian that accommodates thousands of prisoners is here, and the Shuntianfu School and the Jingxian County School are all in Beicheng, so it is called Beisour.

It is also very reasonable for this Zhongyi bookstore to be opened in the west of Beicheng. But if Fang Yingwu wants to pass, the road is really far away, Zhejiang Hall is in the southeast of the capital, go to the north of the city, I am afraid that I will not be able to travel twenty miles back and forth.

So Fang Yingwu gritted his teeth, hired a sedan chair at the door of the hall, and then took the sedan chair to Beicheng.

I touched the place according to the address, and sure enough, I saw a lively place, the lights were colorful and did not mention, and I heard the red firecrackers from a distance.

This is the front door of the five-bay room, which is very magnificent, and there are many people gathered in front of the door. Fang Yingshi went forward, found someone who seemed to be in charge, and reported the name of the object.

A literati in his thirties came out of the faΓ§ade and greeted the object: "Yao Qian is below, and Fang friends are here, and we are full of brilliance!" ”

It turns out that this is today's main owner, not like a businessman, but more like a scholar Fang Yingwu thought.

However, what he said was polite, and Fang Yingwu returned the courtesy: "It is also a fellow villager, why should Mr. Yao be polite." ”

It turns out that this Yao Qian is a native of Longyou, Quzhou Prefecture, Zhejiang, very close to Chun'an County, Yanzhou Prefecture, Quzhou and Yanzhou are neighbors, in such a far place in the capital. It is not an exaggeration for people from both places to think that they are fellow villagers.

This is also an important factor for Fang Yingwu to come out and cheer up, going out. It is natural for fellow villagers to help each other.

But unlike Chun'an, Longyou's habits are similar to those of the neighboring province of Huizhou. There are a lot of business trips, and Yao Qian is an example.

At this time, the printing industry in Beijing was far inferior to Nanjing, Suzhou, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places in the south, Yao Qian saw the business opportunity, carried a large number of exquisite engravings and a group of skilled craftsmen, and was ready to show his strength in Beijing and opened this Zhongyi bookstore.

Fang Yingwu and Yao Qian greeted each other, and they knew each other, so they walked towards the door together. From the outside, you can see the large door of the five-bay room, and the size of the space inside the door can be imagined.

Fang Yingwu stood in the atrium. Looking around, he exclaimed, "I have never seen such a magnificent bookstore!" Mr. Yao is really generous. Yao Qian was proud in his heart, but he was humble again and again, which was in line with his name.

Saying that, after receiving Fang Yingwu here, Yao Qian was about to leave temporarily and go to receive others, but he heard Fang Yingwu say: "The eyes are full of subsets of scriptures and histories, and it is so complete, it is really rare." But in business. Mr. Yao must have spent a lot of money on this, don't you want to sell something else? ”

Yao Qian was stunned, he didn't expect that this party should be quite active, so he said in a low voice: "I can't hide it." There are also all kinds of beautiful women's novels, but they are not put out today. Later, they were placed behind the pillars inside. ”

Fang Yingwu looked at it, and sure enough, he saw that there was an empty corner. It's just that the view is blocked by the pillar, so I didn't notice it.

However, Fang Yingwu still smiled dumbly. "Mr. Yao, you misunderstood, I don't mean this. It's just a chance to feel something, and tell you a way to make money. ”

Yao Qian didn't believe in this, he had three generations of family engraving and printing business, what did he not know in this regard? Even the books of the indecent teachers were secretly printed.

Fang Yingwu said with a smile: "It's only been a few months since the trial this year, why doesn't Mr. Yao collect the test volume, engrave it into a book, and distribute it to the world?" ”

Yao Qian's eyes lit up when he heard this, which seemed to be very interesting. Fang Yingwu glanced at him, and knew in his heart, it seemed that this surnamed Yao was not a person who was not smart, and he was worthy of being a Longyou who was good at business, so he continued:

"As the days of peace go by, there are more and more readers. What is the school? Isn't it just going to school, taking the imperial examination, and being an official? Mr. Yao printed the latest test papers, and the students definitely wanted to buy them back and figure it out. Being in Beijing is the convenience of this location.

It's best to add the comments of the examiner, or everyone's comments, so that the scholars have to look at it, otherwise how to figure out the popular style?

The price can be set more expensive, the reader is richer than the people, and the exclusive things that must be seen must be bought with money.

If it sells well, you can also renovate it in the future, publish a variety of different types of anthologies of current literature, and combine the articles into a book to sell. ”

It turned out that there was such a world Yao Qian seemed to see the new shijie, and he was thrilled to hear it, and the other party said: "I have been taught!" When he straightened up, he said distressedly: "At the beginning of the next year, how can you have a doorway to the heavens to get the test paper?" ”

Fang Yingwu waited for this sentence and said, "You can try it in the future, but I don't dare to be sure." ”

Yao Qian was overjoyed, "As long as friends are willing to help, they will not be treated badly!" ”

After Jiajing Wanli, the Bagu anthology flooded and became a major source of profit for the printing industry. But in the Chenghua Dynasty, when the Ming Imperial Examination had just passed its youth, this kind of anthology was still a novelty, and it was a pioneering thing to be able to put it forward.

Fang Yingwu said lightly: "It is nothing if you are not treated badly, and you are not here." When Zuihou writes a book, please write a preface below, or name it, and that's it. ”

Of course, Yao Qian wouldn't really think so, "It can't be just that, it can't be just that, with the talent of Fang's friends, it should be fame and fortune." He had already made up his mind in his heart, and Fang Yingwu's pen today had skyrocketed from three taels to ten taels.

Fang Yingwu is fighting the idea of making a name for himself. At least in the early days of the industry, this is an exclusive book, and when readers take the anthology to learn the Bagu text, they must first see his preface, which invisibly enhances the status of the rivers and lakes.

When it came to the scientific examination, the examiners were embarrassed not to admit him, but I hope he would not be as unlucky as Ai Nanying, a famous Bagu master in later generations.

However, in this time and space, Fang Yingwu has inadvertently become the ancestor of the teaching and auxiliary materials industry, and has discovered a sunrise industry that can flourish for at least a thousand years without sinking.

But Yao Qian and Fang Yingwu's investment in talking here forgot to greet others for a while, which made a noble son dissatisfied. This noble son is known as Liu Ergongzi, and he is the son of the prime minister and is very famous. (To be continued.) )
