Chapter 714 - Know how to refuse
As long as the scholar reads it, he will give his opinion, and if the emperor oppresses ordinary people, or is noble, the scholar will judge whether these people have anything to do with them.
If you feel that the incident is related to you and that it is unfavorable, the reader will start to fight back.
Since the beginning of printing, Fan Jingjing's Fan family manor has become popular.
Printing books has become one of Fan Jingjing's important jobs, and it is also a job that can make money.
When she was printing a book, someone else copied a book, and it took three or four manpower to complete a book in one month.
But it takes half a year to engraving, but 5,000 copies can be printed, movable type printing, as long as it is rearranged.
In this case, the cost of books will be greatly reduced, and the cost of books will be reduced, and there will be no need to sell them too expensive.
In the printing department, it is just necessary to find the originals of some books to copy.
After these books are corrected, and then printed out, since Fan Jingjing was able to print a lot of books has been circulated, some people's reaction is to hide the books at home and not lend them to Fan Jingjing, but some people's reaction is that there is only one book they have written, and it would be great if it could be spread through Fan Jingjing.
They don't just ask for money, hoping that their books will be put on the shelves of more people.
So how much money Fan Jingjing makes has nothing to do with them.
Of course, Fan Jingjing will not do this in business, she will still give the author a fee, and even give them a commission.
The commission is only 10 percent, because everything else, including printing paper and store sales, requires money, but even 10 percent can make the author receive a very large profit.
Because this is an exclusive business, if you don't buy it from Fan Jingjing, you won't have to buy it.
What's more, when Fan Jingjing prints books, she doesn't print them casually, she basically lets people pick them, and after reading them and seeing them in person, she thinks that books have the value of dissemination, so that these books will have a chance to see the world.
In addition to books, the newspapers sold by the Fan family manor are also very popular with readers, but it is very difficult for others to imitate them, because others can only copy the newspapers.
Fan Jingjing did not spread the way of book printing, and even the business of the official newspaper took over.
Nor did the new paper be made to spread the word.
Because the paper of books is actually very different from ordinary paper, because in order to make these books durable and durable, they all choose paper with relatively high toughness, and the cost is naturally more expensive.
However, when the labor of copying is saved, the value of books is still very much saved.
People who used to be able to afford books can now afford books even more, not to mention that most books are a kind of property, and when they are sold, they can be sold for a high price.
In this era, it still belongs to the Wenchang Temple, and there is a paper burning building in it, if you want to burn the book, you don't need to worship God.
Unlike later generations, there are so many books that they can be recycled, and even if they are sent to recycling stores, no one wants to buy them, after all, these books are printed in large quantities, and there are not many people who need them.
I don't know how these philatelists collect stamps, maybe it's because there is more stamp circulation and less printing, if the number is printed more, there will be no value for stamping.
Nowadays, many stamps even have individual stamps, and it can be said that each stamp is different, but people who are interested in stamps are still a small circle and can exchange their favorite stamps with each other.
Of course, people who are really willing to spend a lot of money are actually relatively wealthy people, and these money may not be able to be exchanged for real money, but if they can exchange with some valuable people, they can also get some friendship, they are not interested in the money brought by paper, but because of the expansion of interpersonal relationships by like-mindedness and interests.
"Mother, why do you look uncertain, is someone bullying you, let's go find the person who bullied you, and dare to bully my mother."
Erwa said with a wave of her fist.
"You are a villain, even if you look for trouble, you will be killed." Fan Jingjing said with a straight face.
"We're so small, but even if we have the opportunity to beat them, we won't let them see our existence, and we will ask others for help."
The big baby made a voice of wisdom.
"Are you wise? Don't others have wisdom? Three stinkers are better than one Zhuge Liang, and there are often a lot of people around them.
What's more, my mother said, what should we do if they give us orders and we can't do it? ”
"Didn't you tell us, mother? It's good to refuse what can't be done, why think so much, and even if it's refusal, because we really can't do it, so we don't need to feel guilty, they should go to someone else sooner to solve their problem! Wouldn't it be better that way? ”
"But it's not that my mother can't do it, after all, I'm just marrying someone, but my mother doesn't want to!"
"Mother, you have also told us before, if we don't want to do something, we have to be brave enough to say no, even if it hurts people, the person who makes us embarrassed is not necessarily the person who really cares about us.
The people who really care about us must be thinking about us, so why should we take this responsibility for the other party? ”
Empress Changsun and Emperor Li Shimin definitely don't care about Fan Jingjing's development, they care about the development of the entire Tang Dynasty and the entire imperial family, if the Tang Dynasty doesn't develop well, how Fan Jingjing died Emperor Li Shimin doesn't care.
Now the reason why Fan Jingjing has a status is because Fan Jingjing can promote the development of Datang.
If she doesn't have a unique ability to be replaced by others at any time, it's hard to say what kind of fate she will have, after all, she violated the emperor's wishes, and if she didn't have anything to do with the emperor, she wouldn't be tolerated by the emperor.
Maybe it was because they were too close to the emperor, so the emperor smiled, in Fan Jingjing's eyes, if there was no direct contact between the two of them separated by more distance, maybe Fan Jingjing would not get so much pressure.
But on the other hand, he will get pressure from other people or even more people.
In the feudal dynasty, Fan Jingjing would feel that her whole body was full of pressure, as if everyone did not suppress others, there was no way to move forward, Fan Jingjing was also very helpless.
If she wants to do her own thing, but there will be many people to interfere, if she is not attached to the emperor's hands, she will not be able to develop at the beginning, but what the emperor has done, and even the status of the emperor, it is really difficult for Fan Jingjing to sincerely thank the emperor for his existence.
