Chapter 57: Boiled Frogs in Warm Water

Day 2.

Wu Tian's face was even more ugly.

Because, the money for buying books today has almost all of the existing silver of his Wu family.

If tomorrow, there are still so many books in Longhumen Bookstore. Then he would have to throw in the towel.

Fortunately, on the third day, it only cost about 100,000 taels of silver to sweep away the books in the Longhumen bookstore.

Haha, victory is in sight, it seems that there are not many books left in that Longhumen bookstore. As long as they hold on for one day tomorrow, the battle will be won.

However, on the 4th day. Longhumen Bookstore still has four or five hundred thousand books on the shelves.

After another day of sweeping, the four major families couldn't stand it, and the four family heads met again in the Wu family.

Wu Tian: "Ladies and gentlemen, now we are grasshoppers on a rope. I didn't expect this Wang Yujie to have so many books. Now, our Wu family's cash has been emptied, and the next thing is to depend on the courage of the family masters. ”

Hearing this, the brows of the four masters furrowed. Your Wu family has no money, and our family has no money! Lao Tzu has already gone out to borrow money, okay?

Guang Nantian said: "To be honest, my family has no cash. ”

Jiang Yibo and Sun Dong also said that they had no money.

Wu Tian: "Then what should we do? If we don't buy all the books they have left, then how can we sell the books we have? Can we also sell them for a tael of silver?"

Jiang Yibo: "It's impossible, if we also sell one or two pieces of silver, let's not talk about the loss of money, then our four major families will become a joke." ”

There is another sentence that he didn't say, then Wang Yujie can sell books for a tael of silver, can't he reduce the price again?

So no matter what, they had to buy all the books left. There is no way back for them now.

Sun Dong smiled and said, "Everyone, in fact, we don't have to worry about it at all, the reason why Wang Yujie was able to get so many books was entirely because he got the property of the He family." ”

"Although we miscalculated the financial resources of this He family. But I think that no matter how rich his He family is, it is impossible to be richer than our four major families. So, as long as we can withstand it, then the victory will always be ours. ”

Jiang Yibo said: "That's right, have you ever thought about it? From the day we made this decision, we should have thought that there would be such a day." You know, the other party is also trying their best to bet with us. Maybe he's worse off than we are right now. ”

"So, at this moment, we need to unite and do everything we can to win this battle. Everyone should know that we will win this battle, so it is worth it for us to pay. In other words, the more we give today, the greater the return will be in the future. ”

As soon as these two guys said this, the other two family owners suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

They were right, they were going to win this battle. As long as their four major families are united, the possibility of defeat is almost zero.

Wu Tian nodded and said, "Then Brother Sun, what do you say? ”

Jiang Yibo and Guang Nantian also nodded and looked at Sun Dong.

Sun Dong said: "It's true that people have already done everything they have to fight with us, so we can't keep our hands." I decided to go back and sell everything I could. If you can't sell it in a short time, pawn it, get enough cash, and have a good time with the hairy boy. ”

So, on the same day, the four major families released the news that they were going to sell their properties.

Sell any property, real estate, shop, anything that can be exchanged for cash.

As soon as he received the news, Wang Yujie smiled.

Next, it's time to start boiling the frog in warm water. You can't release too many books at once and scare them away.

As a result, the next four families were uncomfortable.

In Longhumen Bookstore, only a hundred thousand books were released on the fifth day.

In this way, each of the four major families only needs to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver.

This made the four masters breathe a long sigh of relief, if the other party still released millions of books a day like before, they really couldn't eat it.

But each family has only tens of thousands of copies, and they still have no problem eating them.

On the sixth day, the four families just sold their own land and other things for tens of thousands of taels of silver, which was just enough to eat all the books.

How do they know? Wang Yujie has already arranged for people to pay attention to them, how much money they sell in a day, and how many books he releases on the second day.

This has to be controlled, if you put too little, it will definitely not be good, people really can't come up with the money, and they will give up if they can't do it.

In fact, Wang Yujie is thinking too much, and when things come to this point, it is impossible for the four masters to turn back.

The four major families raise less and less money every day, and the books released by the Longhumen Bookstore every day are getting fewer and fewer.

This is going to die, and when you look at each other, you can't stand it, and you are left with a breath of hanging. It's even less likely that you'll give up.

The expenditure of tens of thousands of taels of silver every day can't be withstood by any family!

Half a month later, the four major families will have one main house left to belong to them.

And there are only 10,000 or 20,000 books released by Longhumen Bookstore. More than 10,000 books were distributed, and there were only about 100 in each bookstore, which seemed empty on the shelves.

Is it that everyone is uncomfortable, and the last main house is left, will it be sold or not?

It seems that as long as the main house is sold, this battle can be won.

So, they sold the last of the main mansions. Only a few houses were left to hold books.

Then, all 100 bookstores in Longhumen will be sold out.

However, on the second day, more than 100 books were displayed in each bookstore in Longhumen.

Four days later, the four masters looked at the books that filled two or three warehouses, and they didn't know what to say.

At this moment, they have nothing to sell. They knew that if there were still books to sell at Longhumen Bookstore tomorrow, then they would be finished.

At the same time, Wang Yujie was drinking tea with the emperor. The queen accompanies Princess Zixia.

Wang Yujie was depressed when he saw this Zixia princess, such a beautiful beauty, but it was not his own dish.

Although he is a traverser, he can convince himself in his heart not to admit this relationship. However, this is the only daughter of the emperor, and the two of you are doomed to be impossible.

Wang Yujie only cared about looking at the beauty, and didn't see that the emperor seemed unhappy. He said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, the four major families are finished. From then on, the court no longer relied on the family. How are you going to reward me?"

"Alas. ”

The emperor sighed and said: "Wang Qingjia, you are a relatively upright person, I plan to set up a special position for you, how about you go to the Ministry of Rites to be an inspector? I upgraded you to 4 levels all of a sudden, which can be regarded as unprecedented and unprecedented!"

It doesn't matter if you are promoted or not, the most important thing is, what kind of tone are you? It seems as if Lao Tzu is forcing you to give me a promotion.

Wang Yujie said unhappily: "Your Majesty, if you are not willing to promote us, we should not be, why are you so reluctant?"

Princess Zixia interjected and said, "Lord Wang, please don't blame your father, my father is not worried about your affairs, but something has happened to our Yan Kingdom." ”
