Lin Wenqing said with a smile: "This is a concubine who has been calculating for a long time before the price is set, and the private printing will be paid according to the word, one word is counted as a copper coin, and a hundred books are printed, half of the deposit will be charged first, and after the whole book is printed, the remaining half will be collected, so there is no reason for making money." ”

When Gao Yuan heard this, he was also shocked, a word is a copper coin, although it is not sky-high, but it is definitely worth a lot. Taking [Sun Tzu's Art of War] as an example, the whole book has a total of more than 5,000 words, if it is counted according to private printing, it is 5,000 copper coins, and 100 books are 500,000 copper coins. Although the exchange rate between copper coins and gold in this era was not fixed and fluctuated to a certain extent, 500,000 copper coins were converted into gold, which was about 40 to 50 Eridium. Excluding printing, paper, and labor, the net profit will be between 20 and 30 eridium gold.

At present, the price of a paper print [The Art of War] is about four or five hundred copper coins if it is in Daijun or Linzi area, and in other remote areas, it is about seven or eight hundred copper coins, and no more than one thousand copper coins at most.

The number of words in [The Art of War] is relatively small, and the general books are usually more than 10,000 words, so the price of private printing is generally around 100 Yi gold. In fact, if you find someone to copy, whether it is with paper or bamboo slips, the cost is easier than printing, but now the supply of paper is still insufficient, and the monthly supply of paper in the entire Qi country is only 500,000 sheets, which is in short supply at all.

There is a sufficient supply of bamboo slips and wooden slips, and although there are few professional copyists, they can still accumulate a lot of copies slowly, and they can copy a hundred copies in a few months. But the biggest problem of the short book is that it is inconvenient to carry, still take the [Art of War] as an example, there are thirteen chapters in the whole book, each can be listed as a single volume, a total of thirteen volumes, and one hundred [Sun Tzu's Art of War] is 1,300 volumes of simple books, if you want to take it away, you must use an ox cart to pull it, and it is not easy for a person to carry a set, and other books with more than 10,000 words are required to use more volumes.

And a hundred copies of the [Art of War] printed on paper, as long as you bring a servant, you can pick it up. It's not a problem to carry five or six books with you. In addition, after all, the printed books are neat and clear, and you can see that they are printed materials at a glance, and it is also face-saving to give them away.

Moreover, the number of books in this era is very small, and the average private family can have dozens of books, even if it is a scholarly family, if it exceeds a hundred, it is definitely a book collector, that is, the royal family, and the collection of books is only thousands. It's not as much as a college student's collection of books in today's society. In this era, it is not a writer flying all over the sky, as long as it is a person, you can write a book if you know a few words, because the books of this era are written in very concise Chinese, and the words and sentences are very particular, often a simple sentence, it contains a lot of information, without more than ten years of academic skills, it is impossible to write a book, and as long as it is a written book, almost all of them are high-quality products, and someone is definitely willing to collect.

Therefore, as long as people can write books, they will not be ordinary people, and although Baiyi gold is worth a lot of money, these people can still take it. In their opinion, money is not a problem, if you spend more than 100 eridium gold, print your own book, and pass it on to future generations, it is absolutely cost-effective. Of course, the business itself is also aimed at these high-end people who can afford it.

As a result, after Daijun launched a private book printing business, it immediately attracted the attention of many people in the Qi country, because the Qi country is a gathering place for scholars from all over the world, and only in the Jixia School Palace, there are more than 30 scholars who have taken the doctor's salary, and the consumption power is sufficient, and as a result, in the first month, he received an order for eleven books. The deposit alone collected more than 100 eridium gold.

In the following months, there were also many people who asked for private printing, if it wasn't for Lin Wenqing's decision, only accept orders for printing fifteen books per month, and could only book one month in advance, it is estimated that the orders received now can be scheduled until the end of the year, and the income will naturally rise in a straight line.

This month, the first batch of private prints has been sent to Qi State, and the full cost can be recovered, so Lin Wenqing is sure that the income of this month will be more than 300 Eridium gold. Moreover, Lin Wenqing had already set up a piece of land in Lingshou, moved the printing house to Lingshou, and left only the paper factory in Daijun, so that the scale of these two industries could be nearly doubled, and the income of each month was estimated to reach 500 eridium gold.

Although it is said that there is such an income, mainly because of the application of papermaking and printing, Lin Wenqing's business acumen is also indispensable, and Gao Yuan has no doubt that if Lin Wenqing was born in modern society, he can definitely become a successful female entrepreneur. In fact, Lin Wenqing is talking about the business of papermaking and printing in front of the plateau, and he also has a bit of a strong woman who scolds Fang Xuan.

After Lin Wenqing finished speaking, Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Wenqing, you have done a great job, I am not in Daijun during this time, I have worked hard in Daijun, and it is really my luck to be able to marry you." Listening to the praise of the plateau, Lin Wenqing's heart is like drinking nectar, she is so dedicated to management, in addition to because she likes to do business, but more importantly, it is to help the plateau, and at the same time prove that she is useful to the plateau, not to rely on beauty to get the favor of the plateau, so she smiled: "These are what the concubine should do, and the husband goes out to fight, but also for the peace of the county, the concubine does not have the ability of Yinghong and Ayao, so she can only help the husband in this way, if it is not for the husband to contain the concubine and Huan'er, our mother and son still don't know what will happen, Therefore, it is the luck of a concubine to be able to marry a husband. ”

Gao Yuan hugged Lin Wenqing in his arms again, and said with a smile: "There is no need to say these polite words, there should be nothing to do during this time, I will accompany you more in Daijun, and then move to Lingshou together." ”

Lin Wenqing said: "After talking about it for a long time, it's not too early, so the concubine will wait for her husband to rest." ”

Gao Yuan put his hands together, hugged Lin Wenqing, and said with a smile: "Let me serve Wenqing tonight." He lowered his head, kissed Lin Wenqing's face, and said, "I can guarantee that I will definitely serve Wenqing comfortably tonight, and I won't want to get up tomorrow morning." ”

Although she has been married to Gao Yuan for several years, and there are many times of intimacy between husband and wife, Lin Wenqing still can't stand Gao Yuan's explicit words, just like a little girl, her face is full of shame, she puts her head in Gao Yuan's arms, and said coquettishly: "What are you waiting for, take the concubine to the room." ”

Gao Yuan walked into Lin Wenqing's bedroom in a few steps, hugged Lin Wenqing and fell directly on the bed, immediately found Lin Wenqing's small mouth, and kissed him passionately. After a while, the bedroom was filled with the sound of coquettishness and wheezing.

―――――――― the dividing line――――――――― dividing line―――――――― the next morning, after Gao Yuan finished handling government affairs and had lunch, he and Lin Wenqing took Luo Huan together, and prepared a bride price, came to Jiang Huanwu's house, and officially proposed to Jiang Huanwu and Han Xiuwan.

If it is really calculated, Gao Yuan and Jiang Huanwu are actually the key of the monarch and minister, so Gao Yuan's adopted son wants to marry Jiang Huanwu's daughter, and there is no need for Gao Yuan to go to Jiang Huanwu's house in person to propose marriage, as long as he entrusts a powerful minister to mention it. However, now Gao Yuan is not officially called the king, or in the name of Wu Anjun, he proposed to Jiang Huanwu, although the etiquette is a little heavier, but it is not excessive, and the relationship between Gao Yuan and Jiang Huanwu is also different from that of ordinary monarchs and ministers, because both of them can be regarded as disciples of Guigu Xiao, and they can be regarded as brothers of the same sect. Therefore, of course, the plateau should be visited in person.

When the plateau is called the king, then he can't come forward in person, which is not to say that after the plateau is the king, he will have to show off the king's shelf, but the king must have the rules of the king, and treat his subordinates equally. Gao Yuan was reluctant to be the king before, and a large part of the reason was that there were too many rules and too troublesome after becoming the king, and he was far less comfortable than Wu Anjun.

Of course, the proposal was just a passing scene, and in the morning, Gao Yuan had already sent someone to inform Jiang Huanwu first, so at this time, Jiang Huanwu's family was waiting for them at home.

However, when Jiang Mingxia opened the door to Gao Yuan and his party, she didn't say anything unusually, just shouted: Uncle Gao, Aunt Lin. Then he retreated to Jiang Huanwu's side, lowering his head and not daring to look at the plateau.

And Jiang Huanwu and his wife welcomed Gao Yuan and Lin Wenqing into the house with a smile, and Luo Huan also followed Gao Yuan and Lin Wenqing, his head so low that he almost touched the ground. Although the two are usually intimate, and they are also childhood sweethearts, as long as they meet, they will get together, and there are endless words, but today the two are far away, for fear of approaching, and they don't even dare to touch each other.

The reason is that today I finally pierced that layer of paper, and the two became friendly and intimate again, but when it came to officially talking about marriage, they were still like all young people, and they were timid. made Gao Yuan, Jiang Huanwu and others very funny.

In fact, the marriage between Luo Huan and Jiang Mingxia, in the eyes of other people in Daijun, has long been an ironclad matter, just to see when it will be carried out, and the elders on both sides are also supportive, so today's proposal does not need to be polite, just go through the process. Gao Yuan and Lin Wenqing sent the dowry of the marriage, and the two sides exchanged the tokens of the marriage, and the family affair was decided.

However, the time of marriage is set to choose a good day to hold a wedding after moving to Lingshou, which has also been agreed by the parents of both sides, and Luo Huan went out with Jiang Huanwu to participate in the battle to collect Liaodong, which has not changed, and it is still carried out as usual. Lin Wenqing said something to ask Jiang Huanwu and Han Xiuwan to take care of Luo Huan, and Jiang Huanwu naturally agreed.

Finally, the two young people thanked the parents of both sides respectively, and the two of them changed their previous names and thanked the parents on both sides.
