Chapter 230: Who Said I Was Going to Sell?
Lan Bin thought for a while, "Ten taels of silver!"
Ten taels of silver?
Reading glasses seem to be just two pieces of glass, a pair of wooden frames, sold for ten taels of silver, can they be sold?
Lan Wu looked at the reading glasses in the brocade box, and then at Lan Bin, muttering in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said respectfully, "Yes, young master!" Look at the book
"You have someone go to the noon gate, inform His Royal Highness the eldest grandson, and invite him to come to the mansion for a talk! Just say I have something to look for him!" Lan Bin covered the brocade box with reading glasses and commanded.
Lan Wu nodded, just turned around and took a step, stopped again, and hesitated: "By the way, young master, as of today, Daming Daily has printed more than 5,000 copies, do you want to continue printing?"
"Print!"
Lan Bin said without hesitation: "The first issue of Daming Daily must print at least 30,000 copies!"
"Young master, the first issue of 30,000 copies was printed, is it too much? What if I can't sell it?"
Lan Wu was taken aback, originally Daming Daily printed more than 5,000 copies, but Lan Bin didn't say to stop printing, he was worried that he wouldn't be able to sell, so he asked such a sentence, but he didn't expect Lan Bin to print 30,000 copies when he opened his mouth.
Daming Daily is a new thing, and I don't know if the market can accept it. If you can't sell so much at once, you'll lose a lot.
Lan Bin was surprised, "Who said I was going to sell?"
"Not for sale?" Lan Wu's eyes widened.
Lan Bin nodded: "Daming Daily is a new thing, and the market needs to be cultivated. So the first issue, no, the next three to five issues of Daming Daily, don't sell, all of them will be sent!"
"This, this, this—" Lan Wuyi was speechless.
He never thought that Daming Daily printed so much, and in the end it was not for sale, but for delivery.
And as soon as it is delivered, it is several issues of Daming Daily.
According to the calculation of 30,000 copies in the first issue, the total number of Daming Daily in the next three to five issues is as high as 180,000 copies.
Originally, the cost of printing Daming Daily was high, and how much silver would it cost to send so many Daming Daily at once?
Even if the glass business and the soap business are very profitable, they can't afford such a loss!
Lan Bin frowned slightly: "What is this, go and invite His Royal Highness the eldest grandson."
"Young master, you can't do this! Even if you set the Daming Daily a little cheaper and sell it, you can lose less. You give it away for nothing—" Lan Wu came back to his senses and hurriedly said.
Lan Bin waved his hand: "Okay, I have my own measure in this matter, I don't need to say much!"
Just kidding, he made Daming Daily, not to make money, but to influence the influence of public opinion after Daming Daily was built.
What's more, the early delivery of Daming Daily for nothing was not really given away for free, but for the market with silver.
The market has been cultivated, and if you want to make money, it is not a matter of minutes.
Lan Wu looked at Lan Bin, squirmed his lower lips, wanted to say something, but didn't say the last word, turned around and left.
Lan Bin took the brocade box containing reading glasses to his study and put it away, and then went to his laboratory courtyard to continue to study the application of penicillin.
"Young Master, Young Master!"
When he took Thursday to the outside of the small courtyard of the laboratory, a subordinate voice suddenly came from behind him.
Lan Bin stopped, turned around and saw a subordinate hurrying over, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Young Master, His Royal Highness the eldest grandson has come down, and the housekeeper invites you to the main hall!" The subordinate gasped slightly.
Such a coincidence?
At this time, Lan Wu arranged people to be afraid that before they went out, Zhu Xiongying had already come!
Lan Bin raised his eyebrows: "Got it, go down!"
Yinluo, ignoring the people who came to report the news, took Thursday and turned around and came to the main hall of the house.
"Cousin, Lan Wu said that you prepared another birthday gift for me?"
Zhu Xiongying, who had just walked into the main hall and was talking to Lan Wu on the chair, got down from the chair at once, took three steps and two steps in two, and greeted him.
Lan Bin
He nodded and said with a smile, "Your imperial grandfather said that the globe is confidential and must be kept secret. In order not to draw attention to the globe, let me prepare another birthday gift for you!"
"What? Didn't your imperial grandfather tell you?"
"Seems to be something, I forgot!"
Zhu Xiongying thought for a while, and then said, "By the way, cousin, where is the birthday gift? Can you show it to me?"
"The birthday gift is in my study, come with me to the study!"
Lan Bin took Zhu Xiongying all the way to his study and took out the brocade box containing reading glasses that had been placed before. He opened the brocade box again, revealing the reading glasses inside.
He stepped forward and said, "Well, this is the birthday gift I prepared for you, reading glasses!"
Reading glasses?
Zhu Xiongying was poked in the blind spot of knowledge, and reached out to take out the reading glasses in some ignorance, looked at them over and over, and said suspiciously: "Cousin, what are these reading glasses? What's the use?"
"Reading glasses are a type of glasses."
Lan Bin smiled, "Didn't you say that your imperial grandmother has some eyes that can't see clearly? These reading glasses are specially prepared for your imperial grandmother. As long as your imperial grandmother wears these reading glasses, she will be able to see things clearly like a normal person!"
Zhu Xiongying was still wondering what the glasses were, but when she heard the words behind her, her eyes lit up: "Cousin, what you said is true? Didn't lie to me?"
