Pirated novels, chess and card tournaments, these two things have caused an uproar in the entire empire, and almost all the major territories are talking about these two things.

The lords of the major territories, as well as the imperial royal family, also secretly began to prepare for the monthly magazine, and if they took advantage of this trend to run the monthly magazine, they would have it. The star leader lacks people, we don't lack it, and the ability to copy the monthly magazine is definitely several times stronger than the star leader, dozens of times.

Although it was a busy farming season, this year's high-quality grain crops are growing very well, and it is much easier to take care of than in previous years. The manpower is relatively rich. In particular, those who can read and write are even less likely to do farm work.

The forces of all parties moved in unison, as if the clouds were covering the top, and they all pressed violently towards the star leader. Many people saw the doorway, and secretly sighed that Jiang Xingchen was bound to lose this time. This qiē was all because of one of his own bad decisions.

The same is true of chess and card competitions, as the piracy turmoil intensifies, all kinds of chess and card competitions have also emerged.

The people who have been holding back to participate in the Xingchen Chess and Card Contest are a little puzzled at this time, the competition is going to be in June, why there is no movement in Xingchen Ling in late May. Are they really stunned by piracy......

In Hongyuan City, several big pharmacies that did not deal with Jiang Xingchen and Zhaojia Pharmaceutical were happy. You Xingchenling and Zhao Family Pharmaceutical are finally going to be unlucky.

When the sheep intestine came out, they were excited when the price plummeted. It is no secret that Zhaojia Pharmaceutical supplies sheep intestines to the military department.

But at that time, they didn't dare to make any moves, after all, Jiang Xingchen's great reputation was there. Xingchen led them and couldn't afford to provoke them, and Qian Liang, the previous lord of Hongyuan City, had to give up his territory because he was squeezed. How dare they be presumptuous in a pharmacy.

But now it's different, anyone with a discerning eye can see that many territories are now suppressing the Star Territory. Even the imperial capital has a non-caring attitude. This gave them a booster.

How did you Jiang Xingchen have today, it is not because of the emperor's favor, now that the emperor doesn't care about you, and there are so many lords suppressing you, your star leader is over.

Among these people, Dr. Cui danced the most, don't you Zhaojia Pharmaceutical want to buy more. I just won't give it to you. Therefore, he saw the people of Zhaojia Pharmaceutical appear in the medicinal materials market. I contacted several pharmacies such as Baicao Hall and joined forces to collect all the medicines in the medicinal material market.

In Hongyuan City, of course, there are some pharmacies that have a good relationship with the Zhao family. secretly passed the news to the Zhao family.

Zhao Danqing laughed angrily when he found out. If only you had done it earlier. Maybe I'll still be in a hurry, but for now...... Hehe, it seems that the lesson you learned two years ago was not enough!

After Grandpa Fu learned about the situation in the outside world, he was also a little anxious. Although he has always opposed Jiang Xingchen's monthly magazine. But I didn't expect the novel to sell for money.

Monthly magazines don't make much money. But the novel is different, there are hundreds or thousands of white silk used in a book, and the selling price must be super high.

"Sir, novels are our stuff, why should they sell them for money!" Grandpa Fu found Jiang Xingchen and said angrily.

"Why, just because there is no intellectual property right now!" Jiang Xingchen secretly sneered, and then smiled: "It's okay." Let them do it, and then they should cry!"

"Oh?" Grandpa Fu's eyes lit up. He asked, "Sir, is there anything you can do?"

"Of course, we also have a novel, compete with them!" Jiang Xingchen said calmly.

"Uh! What kind of solution is this?" Grandpa Fu was stunned, direct competition, how to fight, those more than 100 people copying novels are really not enough, you still give so much salary, plus freight, our cost is higher than others.

Thinking so in his heart, Grandpa Fu didn't say it, but asked: "Now the competition, it's a little late, a lot of pirated copies of ours have already been issued!"

"Don't worry! If you write down the whole novel, you will need to use at least a thousand pieces of white silk, and the cost alone will be 300 citrine coins, plus labor freight, it is estimated that each book can be sold for more than 1,000 citrine coins...... At such a price, how big can the consumer group be!"

Jiang Xingchen smiled and explained, "They must have also split the story into several volumes and divided them out. If there are only about 100 citrine coins per book, then there are more people who can afford it...... In other words, although they have released a lot, they can't finish the story at all!"

"So what, don't we do the same, and the cost is higher than others!" Grandpa Fu shook his head.

Jiang Xingchen said: "Who said that our cost is higher than theirs, we have a secret weapon......

With that, Jiang Xingchen turned around and left, leaving a stunned Grandpa Fu behind, muttering there, "Secret weapon ......"

The time passed the end of May, and at the beginning of June, during this half month, Xingchen Ling didn't move at all!

"Why didn't Jiang Xingchen move this time, don't hold back any powerful tricks, right?"

"It's hard to say. This time is not the last time, the interests of monthly magazines and novels are too great, I heard that even some territories that are good friends with Jiang Xingchen have moved...... There are so many people, and they are all upper-class nobles, what other tricks do you say Jiang Xingchen can have!"

"yes, if you look at it this way, he really hangs ...... this time"

At the same time that various forces stepped up the operation of the monthly magazine, the Anyang Commercial Bank also popped up again, releasing rumors that it had a large inventory of novels in its hands, attracting many shops to contact them.

The piracy continues to spread, with some people gloating and others anxious. This is the case with Bauhinia fans, who, although equally attracted by the story, are determined not to sell pirated copies and are all waiting for the third issue of Xingchen Monthly.

Those who are gloating are also waiting for the third issue of Xingchen Monthly, when the final result will be fully reflected. Of course, they all thought that Jiang Xingchen would never be able to return to heaven this time!

Everyone's anticipation didn't last long, and on June 3rd, Xingchen Ling finally made a move.

As soon as this action came out, it immediately exploded everyone's eyes. Xingchenling is not the third issue of Xingchen Monthly, which everyone is looking forward to, but a novel.

This time, the Xingchen Monthly was no longer issued in just three locations, but covered forty territories at once, with a circulation of up to 200,000 copies, 100,000 copies each of Tianlong Babu and Water Margin.

"Is Jiang Xingchen crazy, he was about to be impacted, and he still issued so many ......"

"200,000 copies, Xingchen Ling is already short of people, he has to make so many in such a short time, how much investment he has to make!"

"Xingchen Territory is in a remote location, and the freight alone is huge, and he actually covers forty territories, so the freight is even higher!"

"Could it be that he was really stunned by this incident! He made wrong decisions one after another! Even if Xingchen Ling has money, he can't afford to make such a thing, right?"

This time, even Bauhinia fans are not optimistic about Xingchen Ling: "The cost of distributing 200,000 copies at once is still higher than others, and it can't compete with others at all!" Jiang Xingchen's decision was too hasty. Even if we fully support it, we can't buy more than 10 copies per person......

"Should we concentrate on the monthly magazine, or use the stars to attract all kinds of new news to attract talents. Even if other territories also run monthly magazines, it won't affect the sales of many Star Monthly......"

Those who pirated the copy all laughed, didn't Jiang Xingchen die by himself. The cost is higher than ours, 200,000 copies, and it is not in our own hands.

Although Bauhinia's fans were not optimistic about Jiang Xingchen's actions, they still gave support, and on the day the novel was released, they rushed to the sales location.

However, when they saw the book and heard the price, they were all dumbfounded.

"What is this, it doesn't seem to be white silk!"

"Definitely not, the white silk stacks are several times thicker than this!"

"What, you said this is the whole story, not a booklet! Actually, actually...... Just a hundred citrine coins!"

"How can such a thin volume be the ...... of the whole story"

The sales point was messed up in front of it, and this situation was completely unexpected by fans, and all kinds of questions came up, and it was noisy.

The owner of the shop had a smile on his face, and he had asked questions from fans before. At that time, the people of the star collar came to him and took out this kind of thing called a book, and he was stunned. What is this, such a thin few books, actually wrote the whole story.

When he opened the book, he was even more shocked. Oh my God, the shape of the font here is almost the same, not only clear, but also good-looking, easy to recognize, much stronger than those copied stories.

Flipping a few pages casually, the sound is crisp, tough and soft, and the feel is also very comfortable, which is much more convenient than turning white silk.

"This ...... Books, only selling a hundred citrine coins?" After the shock, the owner of the shop asked the person from Xingchen Collar in a suspicious tone.

Now the pirated fascicles outside cost hundreds of citrine coins, which is the whole book. And it is lightweight, and it looks comfortable, even if it sells for 300 or 500 citrine coins, someone will buy it.

"Yes, just sell a hundred citrine coins!" the man from the star leader nodded in confirmation. The lord said that what he wanted was not for someone to buy, he wanted to rush to buy, and all of them came to snap up books and occupy the entire market.

The proprietor of the shop nodded, his hands trembling a little with excitement, he could fully imagine the look of people when they saw this kind of book. And it can be guaranteed that once the news spreads, a rush to buy will immediately form.

The truth was exactly as he imagined, and when Bauhinia fans saw the books here, they were all stunned. The whole story only costs one hundred citrine coins. Pick up a book and flip it, it is light and convenient, and the handwriting inside is neat and uniform, far from being comparable to the white silk copied.

Gradually, Bauhinia's fans smiled, and all their previous worries were gone, only to feel that the sound of the paper turning was so pleasant.

"Didn't you beat us Jiang Xingchen! This time it's up to you how you die!"

"We need to let more people know about this news as soon as possible!"

"Hahahaha...... It's so comforting!"

Every Bauhinia fan is just like the owner of the shop, all of them are excited after the shock, and some can't help but laugh.

"I'll have two copies, Tianlong Babu and Water Margin, the same one!"

"I'll have two ....... too" (to be continued......)
