Chapter 127: Li Xiaogong is critically ill

Li Shen became popular again, not because he sold books cheaply, but because of the poem that Li Shen made in the palace, and many readers saw their own shadow in the poem.

Not everyone who reads books can make a fortune. Li Shen's sentence is useless for scholars, and it also pierces the hearts of many readers.

In the end, Li Shen still sold books at the bookstore every day according to his order, but most of them were bought by merchants. Half a month later, someone saw a cart of copper coins being pulled out of the palace.

The queue was almost lined up from the palace gate to King Ji, and it took a whole day. Li Shen was also speechless. The money has always weighed six catties, a car of 600 catties is only 100 catties, and hundreds of thousands of cars have to pull hundreds of thousands of cars.

This is mainly the reason why Li Shen is reluctant to replace goods such as silk silk, Li Shen has always believed that silk spices and other goods may depreciate at some point, and they can't catch up with gold.

Li Shen's method of pulling money is well known to everyone in Chang'an City, especially the officials of the family, who think that Li Shen may have run out of money before pulling money out of the palace.

In the palace of King Wei, Wei Ting, Cui Renzhi and others gathered, and Li Tai sat on the top.

"Lord Wang, now in addition to the three provinces and six ministries, there are basically as many as fifty percent of the officials who support His Highness. We can't do anything about the six books, but we can get in touch with the following squires.

The only thing to see now is whether His Highness can make some achievements to show His Majesty, as long as His Highness has been doing well, we are stumbling on the crown prince, and there is still a chance to eliminate the other. Wei Ting reported to Li Taiyu

"It's difficult, the eldest brother is now stable, not impatient or impatient. Ayajean does whatever he wants, and it's hard to find a handle. "Li Tai is not a fool either. I don't see that?

Wang Wei thought for a while and said: "To tell the truth, even if the prince does a few wrong things, His Majesty will not abolish the prince."

What we have to do is to make the prince change, so that His Majesty will continue to be disappointed in the prince, otherwise how could the country be abolished because of some small things, unless the prince rebelled. ”

"The prince is right, we can't think that the crown prince will be abolished because of a few things, we should find a way to make the prince change." Cui Renzhi answered.

"But how can the prince change? Now the crown prince is in a stable position. Wang Weiqi asked

"In fact, in recent years, His Majesty has been guarding against the crown prince. His Majesty is in the prime of life, and the crown prince is already in his twenties. Do you think the prince really has no other ideas?

Now His Majesty's exclusive favor of His Royal Highness the King of Wei is proof that we only need to find someone to lead the prince's path a little off.

In his twenties, this world of flowers is very wonderful. And we are constantly impeaching the prince and disturbing his mind, and it won't take long for it to be effective.

Beauty, the temptation of wealth is not something that anyone can resist. Wei Ting said with a smile

"Who's going to do it?" Wang Weiqu continued to ask

Lang Zheng Jingsi, the secretary who had not spoken on the side, said: "I have a candidate, this person is called Zhao Jie, who is now a subordinate official of the East Palace, and is deeply trusted by the prince, and his wife is a person next to my Zheng family."

This man is talented but narrow-minded. It's easy to compare. He was the son of Princess Guiyang and Zhao Cijing, and was the Duke of Kaihua County after the ascension.

is also His Majesty's nephew, Chai Zhewei is the Duke of the Kingdom, Duan Yan is also the Duke of the Kingdom, and Dou Xiaoci is also the Duke of the Kingdom. Zhao Jie was dissatisfied, thinking that he was only a county prince after he was a hero, so it was most appropriate to find him, and there would be other uses when appropriate. ”

"I also recognize the person Zheng Gong said is indeed a good candidate. But you have forgotten one person, Hou Junji's east bed quick son-in-law Helan Chushi, Hou Junji is extremely domineering, I heard that he did not hide it from His Majesty because of last year's incident.

He thought that he had destroyed a country, and he just coveted some treasure and sent him to prison. Although he was released later, Hou Junji must have a grudge in his heart, if we find someone to pull him and the prince together. In the future, Hou Junji can involve the prince in anything. Wei Ting named another appropriate person

Cui Renzhi also agreed when he heard it: "Okay, it's easier this way." And we have to see if other subordinate officials in the East Palace can be co-opted. ”

"What should I do on King Ji's side, I heard a few years ago that it was because of King Ji that the crown prince became better. I'm afraid he'll help this time. Wang Weiqi asked

"King Ji let him take care of himself, I let people go to see it today, it really took a day's money, it seems that he has to lose a lot of money this time.

30,000 copies per volume is 540,000 books, and 10 yuan for a book costs 540,000 yuan, how can he have so much money.

Only some could be sold in the next batch, and His Majesty asked for three months, so he pulled out the money from the palace for emergency.

I estimate that even if a book loses 500,000 yuan, not to mention that it may lose more, this time he really lost his wife and soldiers.

He didn't expect that most of those books would end up in our hands, and that he would print them at a lower cost than we bought.

After he sold out of 30,000 copies, we were selling the book at a higher price, and with a profit of several million yuan, King Ji could be regarded as benefiting us. Hahaha...."Lu Chengqing laughed. A few million guan is not a small amount for the Maison. The crowd laughed too.

-------------------------------------

As an international metropolis in this era, Chang'an's daily passenger flow is very large, so unless you are a regular customer, you can't remember who is who.

"Lord Qiqi, in the past half a month, our books have sold 5,000 copies per volume." Wang Xuance reported

"Well, no matter what, we have to fulfill the holy decree, everything goes according to the plan, it's all money. Also, I asked you to investigate the Wei family's main source of income. Li Shen said as he drank his tea.

The tea Li Shen drinks now is roasted tea, but more than a year of experiments still haven't achieved the effect Li Shen wants. However, it was already very close to the taste of medium tea in later generations, so Li Shen began to drink tea.

"Back to the prince, I have found it. The Wei family's main products were salt, iron, tea, and silk cloth. The rest are not as much as these inputs. Wang Xuance replied

Li Shen thought for a while and said, "Good job, we want this year's autumn tea, use our roasted tea to deal with their boiled tea." cut off their tea business,

I heard my mother say that the person named Wei Ting also went to him to inquire about our book sales, but my mother didn't see him, since their Wei family doesn't talk about family affection, then I don't have to be polite to them. ”

"Lord Wang, this is about to harvest autumn tea. If the prince wants it, he has to hurry up. There are several large tea plantations near Chang'an, and there are also many in Luoyang. Wang Xuance reminded

"Well, I will arrange for Wang Hongfu to leave tomorrow. Give him a high price to pack, and I will send someone to collect it elsewhere. However, the candidate is not easy to choose, this must be fried locally, otherwise it will not be fresh when it is shipped back to Chang'an. ”

When Li Shen was thinking about who to send, Wei Fugui ran in, "Lord Wang, Lord Wang, Manager Wang De is here." It's in a hurry, saying that you should hurry up and go to the Hejian Palace, and now I'm waiting outside. ”

"What. The Hejian Palace? "Could it be that the King of the River is getting sicker? Didn't you say some time ago that it had stabilized?

"Xuan Ce, you are now in charge of the sales of the book, and you can complete the holy decree first." Saying that, Li Shen went directly to the gate and saw Wang De circling there.

"Lao Wang, what's so urgent?"

"His Royal Highness King Ji, King Hejian is seriously ill, Your Majesty asked you to hurry up."
