With the delivery of ten high-quality books, including eight general texts, one "Prajna Sutra", and one "Tao Te Ching", there were many exclamations and admiration in the house, and the whole dinner party fell into a joyful mood and reached a climax.

The sound inside the door can be heard even from afar.

"I don't know what's going on inside."

Outside the Tang Mansion, next to the lights of the long street, figures are copying and recording the pen and ink sentences on the lanterns, but they are also paying attention to the movements in the house at any time, and many people can see envy on their faces.

"I heard just now that there was an assassination inside, or the Huns did it, I thought it was going to be three, but it is still going on, this is the real celebrity demeanor, which is enviable."

"Isn't it? If only we could be inside. ”

"This is still second, I heard that there are hundreds of engraved books distributed in it, everyone who attends the meeting, can get a free copy, you say this kind of good thing, why can't we take our turn? Those family members do not lack classics and books, but what they really lack is actually us, and as a result, those who need it can't get it, and those who don't need it are so many that there is nowhere to put them. ”

……

A discussion sounded in the ears, the people outside, relying on their own connections, can also get the news of the hospital, plus Chen Zhi's intentional acquiescence, many participants, servants, errand servants, etc., in the courtyard, can pass the news through various channels, but after all, it is not the people outside who have seen it with their own eyes, and when these news are circulating, it is inevitable that there will be some exaggeration, deviation, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Listening to these discussions, he was looking down and copying the words on the lantern, but he didn't seem to be affected at all, and he was still meticulously copying.

However, compared with the beginning, at this time, the piece of paper in Gao Zhi's hand was already densely filled with small characters, and not only one side, but also the back was about to be filled by him.

Because there is a relationship between the front and back of the words, the handwriting penetrates each other, and the whole paper is not so neat, and some places even appear to be a little defaced.

It's just that for Gao He, if he can buy one less piece of paper, he can save a lot of money, otherwise he won't even have enough money to go back to Goguryeo, after all, at this time, as more and more people buy paper, the people who sell paper do not increase the amount, but continue to increase the price.

The person who gave Gao and the deepest impression was a man named Han Sanxing, who was obviously a paper seller in Dai County, and it was said that he had mastered seventy percent of the hemp paper channels in the city, and he was a businessman who sold for several Dai County clans, in addition to him, there was also a man named Han Lishi, who was a relative of him, and mastered about one percent of the paper business, plus a Chen family named Chen Meiguang, the three of them combined, fully controlled more than ninety percent of the share, so under their promotion, the price of paper increased nearly tenfold!

This price can only be scoffed at in normal times, but for the people on the current long street, it is really just needed, and they can only pinch their noses and admit it.

Based on this situation, such as Gao and this, they can only write as small as possible, in the hope of being able to thank Braille more.

While it was being written, someone suddenly rumored: "I heard that those people from the family are very dissatisfied with the amount of books printed by Taishou with the engraving method, but instead pursue ten high-grade and discarded engraving books, and no one seems to have the essentials!" ”

"It's really fake, a good book, because it's made of engraving, so you want it?"

"They don't want it, we want it, I don't know how to get ......"

……

The discussion started again, but this time it affected the transcription of those people, and many people couldn't settle down at all, and asked repeatedly, even Gao and also paid attention, but he still didn't stop writing.

It's just that my mind is turning to think about how to get in touch with those engraved and rubbed books.

"Since those family scholars don't look down on it, they probably won't value it much, maybe they can gain something by contacting the relationship, but I don't have much money left......

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and immediately continued to transcribe.

At this moment, the night is already dark.

In the courtyard, as ten well-made books were taken out and circulated among the crowd, the paper was opened, and there was even a fragrance in the nose, accompanied by a faint scent of ink.

When looking at the crystal clear paper, not to mention the people of the family who are interested in literature and Taoism, even the Taoist priests and monks who have no intention of doing this, they can't help but exclaim.

Then, there was a succession of compliments and compliments.

After a long while, Zhang Jingsheng asked Chen Zhi: "Fu Jun, such a precious thing, and there are only ten copies, should it be given away?" Even if the government is willing to send it, let's watch others get it, and we must feel uncomfortable, and we don't know how to deal with it. ”

"It's easy to say," Chen Zhi smiled slightly, feeling that this Zhang Jingsheng was really good at cooperating, and invisibly set up a stage for himself, "These ten books are all clearly priced, ten taels of silver each." ”

Ten taels of silver?

Many of the servants in the courtyard couldn't help but gasp when they heard this, for them, this was really a huge amount of money, and many people's ransom price was only a fraction of this price at most.

In their minds, it was a little hard to understand how to spend this money on a book.

Unexpectedly, the people of the family here, especially the scholars from Luoyang and Jiangzuo, said happily after passing through: "It's too cheap!" It was simply unexpected! ”

Then, Na Luoyang was the first to speak up: "I'll sell each book for twenty taels of silver!" ”

"Where is there such a cheap thing?" Immediately, another person shouted loudly, "That "Treatise on the Law, I will give thirty taels, I only need this tael, and I will study under the Legalist, and I hope you can give a face, don't compete with me?" ”

"Is this something that your family can swallow? This "Law Theory" is thirty-five taels out of my family! ”

"I don't want to ask for the "Treatise on the Law", I hope that the "Treatise on the Scriptures" can be handed over to us and bid...... Thirty-six taels! ”

……

Without waiting for Chen Zhi to say anything more, everyone had already begun to take the initiative to increase the price, directly making Chen Wu and other servants dizzy to hear, you must know that in today's world, silver is actually not the equivalent of general circulation, most of them are used for storage by the families of the big clans, so it is very rare to directly take it out and compare the price.

They were still surprised here, but over there, the old monk Zhu Fawei consulted a monk beside him, frowned, and finally said with some reluctance: "That book of "Buddha's Treatise" poor monks are willing to give forty taels! There are also many Buddhist scriptures that are carved and engraved, and they are also collected. ”
