Chapter 223: Buying is Earning

After the official opening of the papermaking workshop, the study can officially start selling paper.

After sending Liu Fuzi back to the academy, she followed her father and second uncle to the study.

She wanted to see what the new paper was like.

In the afternoon, the slanting sun leaked into the window, and she sat on the high chair specially built for her by the weak river, her head lying on the counter, squinting and cultivating in the sun, while waiting for the guests to come to the door.

At the moment, there is no guest in the study, and it is very quiet. Only Shopkeeper Liu carefully sorted out the books on the shelves, and by the way, he saw if any of them were misplaced by the guests.

It wasn't until the sun went down and the light in the study began to dim, and it was time for the academy to get out of school, that a scholar hurriedly walked in.

He walked in, didn't see the shopkeeper, and said to Weak Xuan: "Little girl, I'll come to read the book, is it okay?" ”

Weak Xuan stretched a little lazy waist and said sweetly: "Okay, brother can watch it casually." ”

The scholar was very grateful, and weak Xuan bowed.

Some poor scholars can't afford to buy books, so they will come to read books for a while every day after school and don't leave until the study closes.

Other scholars are not welcome in other study rooms, and after reading the books in the study, what books do you buy?

Is the study business still done?

However, Wenyuan Study will not do this, they will read it casually to scholars, because people who really love books, as long as they really like that book, they will always find a way to buy it back.

And the books in Wenyuan's study are deep once I read them, and I read them for a while every day, and I didn't directly buy the books back and read them in one go, and then read them again and again.

Weak Xuan is not worried at all that the book cannot be sold.

At this time, another scholar came in, and this scholar took a book from the bookshelf that he had finished reading in the study, but was still thinking about when he went home, and went directly to the counter to settle the bill.

Weak Xuan pointed to the paper next to her and asked sweetly, "Brother, do you want to buy some paper by the way?" ”

When the scholar heard this, he glanced at the paper next to him as white as snow, delicate as silk, he picked it up and touched it, and felt that it was very good, just when he was going to buy it back and copy the Buddhist scriptures to celebrate his grandmother's birthday, he said: "This paper is good, come to a hundred three-foot pieces." ”

"Okay!"

Weak Xuan slowly tied the book and paper that the scholar asked for with hemp rope, handed it to the scholar, and said with a sweet smile: "This book is ten taels of silver, and the paper of one knife and three feet is seventy wen, a total of ten taels and seventy wen." ”

Hearing this, the scholar glanced at Xuanbao, thinking that Xuanbao was too small and had misremembered the price, so he reminded with a smile: "Little girl, has this paper miscalculated the price?" It's 700 wen and 50 sheets, not 70 wen a knife, right? ”

Even if it's 700 Wen, it's cheap, and such a high-quality Lianshi paper can't be bought without more than two taels in other studies.

"That's right! The paper in my study is 70 pieces of paper, 100 pieces of paper. Seventy pieces of three-foot high-grade paper, one hundred pieces of four-foot paper, one hundred and thirty pieces of five-foot papers, and one hundred and seventy pieces of six-foot papers."

Weak Xuan quoted each size of paper.

The larger the size of the paper, the more difficult it is to make paper, and the loss is also large when it is removed from the drying wall, and the cost is high, so the price jump of the later size is larger.

The scholar only felt that Weak Xuan was mistaken, the price of paper was nonsense from her, how could there be such cheap paper?

If the paper is sold so cheaply, he can use it to wipe his buttocks, so why use bamboo strips to solve it?

Although his family is not very rich, he is a gentleman and will not deliberately take advantage of this, "Little girl, what about the shopkeeper?" Ask your lord how much money is on this paper. Otherwise, just sell it, my brother is afraid that you will be beaten by your father and mother when you turn around. ”

Weak Xuan waved her hand angrily: "No, don't worry, brother!" The price of this paper is what I set. I said that I would sell as much silver as I could. My mom and dad listen to me, so they won't spank me. ”

The scholar was fascinated by Xuanbao's cute and beautiful little adult appearance, and was almost so cute that her heart melted, and deliberately teased her: "I don't believe it, unless you call an adult." ”

Shopkeeper Liu just went to the backyard to get some books to fill the bookshelf, and he happened to come out at this moment, and after listening to the words of the two, he knew what was going on.

The scholar saw the shopkeeper come out, and hurriedly pointed to the wrapped Lianshi paper on the counter and said, "Shopkeeper, how much silver is this high-quality Lianshi paper?" ”

"Three-foot high-grade even history paper seventy wen a knife."

Scholar: "."

He looked at the white hair on the shopkeeper's head and wondered if he was old and confused, or if there was something wrong with his ears?

Shopkeeper Liu knew what he was thinking when he saw the scholar's expression, and he smiled and said the reason why the paper was sold so cheaply: "The paper in our study is made by our own workshop, so we can sell it without much money." The purpose is to make more scholars more affordable to buy paper and read books. ”

"However, because the papermaking workshop is newly opened, there is not much paper produced, so now each person can only buy one knife, which is limited per day, while stocks last."

It is not only paper but also books, and the books in their study will be cheaper in the future. Now the books on the shelves are expensive because they are copied out of the paper they bought, and they will be cheaper in the future, but the shopkeeper didn't say this for the time being.

Weak Xuan nodded her little head: "Grandpa Liu is right, brother, do you believe it now?" ”

The scholar didn't really believe it until he paid the money and looked at the thirty wen that the shopkeeper retrieved for him!

"Wenyuan study is benevolent and righteous, seventy texts and one knife are first-class even history paper, why should students in the world worry about the uselessness of paper." He bowed deeply to the shopkeeper and the weak Xuan.

It was the time when the academy was dismissed, and at this time, a few scholars rushed in, and they hurriedly asked, "What is the first-grade Lianshi paper with seventy texts and one sword?" ”

This time, there was no need for the shopkeeper to say anything to the weak Xuan, the scholar just said what the shopkeeper had just said.

When those scholars heard this, they immediately went to look at the paper on the table, and when they saw the quality of the paper, even if they were poor students, they bought it without saying a word!

When every scholar needs to use good paper, such a cheap and high-grade Lianshi paper is unprecedented.

When you buy, you earn.

It's a pity that each person can only buy one knife.

The people who came in later saw that everyone was buying paper, and when they asked, they heard that the high-grade even the history paper was seventy dollars, and they all paid money without saying a word.

Those who don't buy it are fools!

As a result, before the store closes, the daily limited edition of paper is sold out.

Those who come from behind can't buy it, so they can only wait for tomorrow.

So from the second day, every day just after dawn, people in the study room came to line up to buy paper.

And the reputation of Wenyuan Shuzhai's benevolence and righteousness has also spread in the major academies.

Now many students say that they will buy books in the future, buy the four treasures of the study, and only recognize Wenyuan's study.

~

The news that Wenyuan Shuzhai was superior to the history paper and was only seventy wen soon spread to the ears of the heads of the two major papermaking families.

The two heads of the family held a piece of paper in their hands, and they were furious!

This Lian Shi paper is a few points better than the high-grade Lian Shi paper from their paper workshop, and Wenyuan Shu sells seventy wen a knife?

This is not to make money, but also to suppress their two major papermaking workshops!

It just doesn't make sense!
