The situation of the store was fed back to Huang Chong, and he was not worried that his books would not sell at all.

The clever Huang Chong immediately thought of a trick.

By the next day, some people still came to the store to see this rare treasure.

Especially those who are relatively poor readers, they sometimes borrow books like others to read, and it is the first time they have seen books made of paper like this. Readers love books and want to know their contents. In particular, that set of "Analects", which adds up to a few thin copies, is really precious.

These scholars are okay at home, at least a little better than ordinary people.

Everyone watched and watched, and yesterday the sky-high price of twenty gold was opened, so that no one bought it. They all wonder if these books will be sold at a reduced price.

They just want to wait and see.

Some readers want the shopkeepers to open the book and take a look. This resonated with many people, and the scene instantly burst into laughter.

Huang Chong's shopkeepers know the importance of mystery, and they won't open it at all. If you want to read a book, you can just pay for it. As long as you buy it, the contents of this book are as you see it. You can do whatever you want with your own stuff. Don't worry about the wrong version, on the ground of Dahan, Huang Chong's credit is the best.

It creates a sense of mystery, which makes the reader's heart as uncomfortable as a cat's paw tickling.

Just when a large number of scholars gathered, a big fat man who pretended to be very rich came outside the store.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please take a step down the lord." The big fat man said with a smile.

Everyone looked sideways, but when they looked closely, they didn't dare to speak out.

This dead fat man is a famous character in Luoyang, and he is a relative of the Dian Wei family. Speaking of which, this dead fat man is still Dian Wei's grandchild, and he wants to call Dian Wei his uncle.

Almost all of Dian Wei's family have the same gene, all of them are five big and three thick, or they are big fat, which is very easy to recognize. For example, all of Dian Wei's sons are the same as Dian Wei's one mold.

The men of the Dian Wei family are all warlike, but they are out of the ordinary of Dian Kuan. Dian Kuan has grown tall since he was a child, but he has a quiet personality, is not good at martial arts, likes to read and write the most, and has a good hand of calligraphy and good writing.

Because of his quiet personality, he is very different among the irascible pawn boys.

Dian Wei also broke his heart for his unscrupulous nephew. Dian Wei was born in the army, and he naturally hoped that the descendants of the Dian family would join the army. But Diankuan is not interested in martial arts at all, and he usually sweats profusely even when he moves. Martial arts are not good, but fortunately, this literary style is still okay.

Dian Wei pondered and waited for an opportunity to recommend Dian Kuan, and he would not avoid his relatives.

Dian Kuan is wide and fat, looks pleasing, and is often bullied by some green-skinned hooligans. However, in the end, the fate of these green-skinned hooligans was very sad. One by one, they were all hung up and beaten half to death by the pawn's boys.

Almost all the scholars in Luoyang knew the pawns, and because of the fierce reputation of the pawns, they did not dare to offend the pawns. Besides, Diankuan is actually a good person.

The people present gave way to Dian Kuan, and Dian Kuan constantly thanked him and was thoughtful in etiquette.

When the shopkeeper saw that it was a pawn, he hurriedly trotted over, nodded and said, "Pawn boy, why are you here, come here, serve tea!" on the best tea. ”

Dian Kuan likes calligraphy, but he is a high roller of this shop, and as the shopkeeper, he can't offend such a person.

Dian Kuan smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Lou, you don't have to be polite." I heard that you have a strange kind of book here, so I came. I wonder if the shopkeeper Lou can let him watch at the next time? ”

"This....pawn boy, this book is a rare thing, expensive, there are any mistakes, and the small ones can't be explained to the owner." Shopkeeper Lou said apologetically. "However, the pawn boy is a well-known figure, and the small one risks being scolded by the owner and giving the pawn a list privately!"

I can't sell a copy from yesterday to now, and the shopkeeper Lou is also anxious, and now that someone has taken the initiative to come, he has to take it out and take a risk. Shopkeeper Lou respectfully handed a copy of [Zuo Biography] to Dian Kuan.

Everyone else watched with a blank eye, and they also wanted to be treated like this, but unfortunately the saying that people are more popular than people is true.

Diankuan took it very lovingly, and carefully opened the book page by page.

After reading a few pages, Dian Kuan said sincerely: "This thing is really rare. I don't know the price? ”

"The pawn knows the goods, this book is very precious, and now there are less than two hundred. One book costs twenty gold. Shopkeeper Lou's eyebrows smiled, this high-roller seemed to be about to buy.

When Dian Kuan heard this, his brows furrowed. It seems that this twenty gold is a big expense for him.

One of the people watching around said, "Dian Gongzi, this book is too expensive, it's really not worth twenty gold." ”

"Yes! Don't be fooled. Everyone else chimed in.

Shopkeeper Lou was in a hurry, but his voice did not change at all. At the same time, the shopkeeper Lou also hated these scholars to death, and finally came to a gold master, if you were stirred up, he wouldn't be angry.

"Twenty gold, not expensive! My son wants it! Diankuan said without thinking.

"Ahh The people around them let out an amazement.

Shopkeeper Lou said with a smile: "Dian Gongzi really knows the goods, this [Zuo Chuan] is yours of Dian Gongzi." Come on, pack it for the pawn boy. ”

Dian Kuan arched his hand and said: "Thank you Lou shopkeeper, twenty gold will go to the house below to get it." ”

Shopkeeper Lou naturally believes in Dian Kuan, after all, no one will swagger through the market with twenty gold. Shopkeeper Lou will not suspect that Dian Kuan is repaying his debts. The pawn is a little sideways, but they are all reasonable, and they have never heard of bad debts.

The shopkeeper Lou was very intimate and packed the left pass with the best cloth.

After Dian Kuan got his hands on it, he was ready to leave.

Shopkeeper Lou laughed again and again, and this first transaction was sold.

The onlookers hurriedly followed Diankuan. Some scholars who knew Dian Kuan rushed to Dian Kuan's side and said, "Dian Gongzi, why are you doing this. A copy of [Zuo Biography] costs 20 gold, which is too expensive. I advise you to go back and return the goods. ”

"Yes! Pawn boy, you have been fooled. The people around him were all persuading Diankuan.

Dian Kuan smiled: "Everyone, don't worry. The book should be worth the price. I have always liked to read, how can such a rare thing be in my pocket? ”

Everyone scolded in their hearts: You are rich and capricious, and you have raised the price!

Diankuan didn't talk to everyone much, and after bowing his hand, he strode away.

Everyone can only say that the people are stupid and have a lot of money.

A scholar suddenly came to his senses, clapped his hands and said, "I understand, why Dian Zhengxi bought this book." ”

"Do you know the deep meaning of Brother Nian?" A reader asked.

The rest of the readers pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

"I heard that Lord Chen, the great Si Nong, is approaching his birthday recently. And Dian Zhengxi is now white, maybe he wants to use this as a qualification! The reader who had just spoken said.

The others understood in an instant.

It turns out that there is such a deep meaning, Dian Kuan's guy looks loyal and honest, I didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns in my heart, and I don't want to be a son of man.

If you can get the favor of Da Si Nong, the twenty gold is worth it.

It's just that they can't take out so much gold, so they can only watch others rise to prominence because of this.

No matter how unwilling they are in their hearts, they can only accept their fate.

But it also illustrates a point. It's a bit expensive to use such an expensive book for your own use. But if it's a gift, it's a proper gift.

The news soon spread throughout the city of Luoyang.

All the dignitaries, wealthy businessmen and wealthy families were pleasantly surprised in an instant.

In the Shenwu Imperial Court, officials are all about strength. And unless you have extraordinary talent and can be self-taught. The rest are in need of a good teacher. And in today's world, there are only a few great Confucians who can become good teachers.

For example, Lu Zhi, the aristocratic school teacher of the Shenwu Imperial Court, is a proper Confucian, and there are many talents under him, and even Liu Bei, a disciple who is not very competitive, is now divided into one side.

These great Confucians don't like gold and silver treasures, and they don't like wine, but they like to read and write, and play high.

If you give these books as a welcome gift, wouldn't it give your children a chance to learn? Even if your own children are not so good and can't be a formal disciple, for the sake of these precious books, it's okay to be a registered disciple.

became a disciple of the Great Confucian, and the future of the whole person became different. The Confucianists are all talents, and most of them will be officials in the future, with this level of relationship, how can there be less care for each other? As long as your children work hard, even if they can't become ministers of the DPRK and China, they can become local officials on the pastoral side in the future.

Compared with the future of the children, a mere twenty gold is nothing.

Even if there are more people who give it to Confucianism, it doesn't matter, you can keep it yourself and use it as a gift in the future. Whoever gives a book of twenty gold as a gift, the one who receives it will be glad.

Many families have begun to move, and their purpose is very clear, which is to buy such a good book before everyone else. Originally, they thought it was a bit more expensive, but when they finally found out what was at stake, they started to do it.

However, it is not what these people think, some relatively wealthy people move even faster.

In a short period of time, all the shops under Huang Chong's command were crowded with people buying precious books, and one was very generous, and twenty gold was a little frowned.

Some people are worried that they won't be able to buy it, so they even bring cash directly, just to pay the money with one hand and the book with the other.

The shopkeepers under Huang Chong's hands smiled from ear to ear and accepted money for the book one after another.

Five hundred high-end books were sold out.

Twenty gold for one book, and five hundred books add up to 100,000 gold.

That's an astronomical amount of money.

Those who didn't buy it were annoyed one by one, and they missed the opportunity. And the people who bought it were happy, and these things will definitely be of great use in the future.

All the shopkeepers admired their owners, and they could sell books for twenty gold, and they were really the richest businessmen in the world, and this kind of earning power was really terrifying.

Huang Chong, who was praised by his subordinates, was drinking tea with a big fat man at this time. That's right, this fat man is Diankuan.

Huang Chong is already very good at business, knowing that such an expensive book has not been sold, then the consequences will definitely be serious. If you want to sell the goods, you need a very important role, that is, dragging.

Those who sell wine have wine trays, those who sell shoes have shoe trays, and those who sell cloth have bouts, and Diankuan is a book holder.

"Pawn boy, thank you very much for your help." Huang Chong picked up the teacup and drank with Dian Kuan.

Dian Kuan said modestly: "It is an honor to be able to help Master Hou. ”

"How dare you. If it weren't for the fame of the pawn boy, Ben Hou would not have been able to sell these books. Huang Chong said.

Dian Kuan took a sip of tea and said quietly: "It's still the Hou Ye who is so powerful that he can get these books." If I hadn't been shy in my pocket, I'm afraid I would have bought a few copies. ”

"This dead fat man is really greedy. As soon as you open your mouth, you want a few copies! Fortunately, these books can be made, otherwise Ben Hou wouldn't know where to give him a few. Huang Chong kept complaining in his heart.

Huang Chong's heart complained, Dian Kuan didn't know. To be honest, Dian Kuan is really this kind of light book, he is a person who likes to read, the bamboo slips are so heavy, it is very difficult to hold. This kind of thin and light book makes him love it.

Huang Chong thought for a moment and said, "If you like these books, please stay for a few days, Benhou will find a few more copies and give them to Dian Gongzi, how about it?" ”

"Really? That's just great. Dian Kuan said happily.

From this point, it can be seen that Dian Kuan is a straightforward person, and Huang Chong is also willing to give him such a big gift.

After sending Dian Kuan away, Huang Chong came to the palace to ask to see Liu Yu and return to Liu Yu.

Hearing that 500 books had been sold, Liu Yu was overjoyed and said, "I didn't expect that 500 books would be sold out in just two days, which really impressed me." ”

"Your Majesty, there are hundreds of thousands of gold, and the minister has already let people quietly transport them to Shaofu." Huang Chong said.

These books were given by Liu Yu, and Huang Chong was only responsible for selling them. What is the profit in this, Huang Chong doesn't ask, and he doesn't want the money he earns. Anyway, Liu Yu just needs to remember his goodness. Kill Huang Chong and don't dare to talk to Liu Yu about money! Talking about money hurts a lot of feelings. Huang Chong is not short of money.

100,000 gold! It's enough for Liu Yu to fight another big war. The cost of the book is a little, but the profit is not worth mentioning at all.

Liu Yu also hated the rich people in Luoyang, when the court was fighting, they all cried poor and refused to take out the money, but now it's good, and they can buy books for twenty gold, which is really wolf-hearted.

But when it comes to this, Liu Yu doesn't care anymore, just collect the money if you have it.

"Uncle Guo, in the future, all the business of this book will be handed over to you." Liu Yuke has not forgotten Huang Chong's contributions.

"Thank you, Lord Long." With such a big business handed over to him, Huang Chong said that it was fake to be unhappy.

"Uncle Guo. I think the pattern of these two days is good. I hope that such a situation will happen in Yizhou and Jiangdong, but I don't know if Uncle Guo can realize it. Liu Yu turned a corner and said the plan in his heart.

Huang Chong instantly understood, and arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the minister needs Lord Li's help!" ”

It is easy to talk to smart people, and Liu Yu knew from Huang Chong's words that Huang Chong was confident.

"Accurate!" Liu Yu had no reason to refuse.
