Chapter 171 A Revolution About Scholars Five (First update on New Year's Day)
Zhongping for six years.

The third day of the first month.

Luoyang is still in a new year celebration and congratulations day, the court has not resumed the court, the court is comfortable, and the people are at ease, but at this time, there are bursts of storms in the city suddenly.

And the source of this storm is a study, a study named Jingping.

"Pass by, don't miss it, Jingping Study, today's grand opening, all books, [-]% off for sale, and all books, buy one get one free!"

"Our Jingping Study Room has everything you need for books!"

"Jingping Study, in response to the imperial court, received the order of the emperor. All books must be patronized by students all over the world. If you can buy more than three books and leave your pen and ink in public, you can draw a lottery. The prize is a set of Xiping Qijing!"

"Students should not miss this great opportunity. Ordinary people can also buy books to enlighten their children. The purpose of our Jingping Study is to enable people all over the world to read!"

"Everyone, come and take a look, don't buy relationships, just read and give away books!"

"..."

Mujing paid a lot of money, sealing Luoyang City into four districts, southeast and northwest, each district hired some local long-term workers and beggar farmers, etc., dozens of people came to distribute leaflets to him, this kind of pass-through sales method bloomed everywhere Airborne Jingping Study into every household in Luoyang City.

The leaflet sales model in the 21st century, in this era, will naturally erupt the effect of "the first warrior to eat crabs". In less than one morning, the entire Luoyang city was turned upside down.

"Jingping Study, what kind of study is this? There is no such study in Luoyang City!"

"Anyway, it's okay, why don't you go and have a look!"

"It's too wasteful. It's a pity to let them waste such fine paper!"

"This Jingping study is rich and powerful, but it uses such good paper to fill in these merchant languages!"

"It's okay to go and have a look. Books have been hard to buy since ancient times. If you can buy a few, it's a good thing!"

"It's not so easy. All the books in the world are copied for personal use. It takes too long to copy a book. How can anyone be willing to buy and sell books. This Jingping Study is just a sensationalist!"

"Now Taixue hasn't opened for classes yet, so it's okay for us to go and have a look!"

"Then I'll go together!"

"..."

"How about I go celebrate the New Year with my uncle and the others today?"

"Forget it, uncle and the others are court officials, so there must be many people going to celebrate the new year. If I wait to go, it is not appropriate to cling to the officials in the court!"

"Then where are we going, how about going to the countryside to enjoy the snow!"

"I have a piece of paper here, and the things written on it are quite interesting, why don't we go and have a look!"

"what?"

"It says that Jingping Study will give away books for free!"

"How can there be such a good thing!"

"Anyway, it's okay, let's go and have a look!"

"..."

"Come on, let's raise our glasses to celebrate the New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

"Brother Li, why are you toasting? What are you looking at?"

"Brother Chen, when I came to the banquet just now, I got a piece of paper on the way. There are some interesting things on it. Let's all look at it together!"

"what is this?"

"Jingping Study, is there such a study in Luoyang City?"

"Most of the books in the study are just borrowing books, and there are very few who sell books!"

"Since we gathered together today, I just went to have a look, how about it!"

"Okay, let's go and have a look!"

"..."

Luoyang City is the capital city of the Han Dynasty under the foot of the emperor. There are countless high-ranking officials and nobles in the city. If any one of them is an official's son, countless scholars will naturally gather.

There is a Jingping study in the east of the city. In front of the study, countless scholars have gathered.

"Why hasn't it opened yet?"

"Didn't you say to send books?"

"It's not a lie!"

"I've said it all, there is nothing so good in the world!"

Not only book scholars, but in front of the study, there are many people who join in the fun and are booing.

"Everyone be quiet!"

The shopkeeper is a soldier of the Jingping camp. He is tall, burly and quite fierce, and he quickly calmed down the chaotic scene: "Today is the opening of our Jingping study, in response to His Majesty's order, to patronize scholars all over the world, everyone can go in and buy. !"

"Go in and see!"

"I'm always looking to see what's so good about it!"

Many people rushed in directly.

The layout of the study is very elegant. There are some calligraphy and paintings hanging around, the middle is open, and there are rows of large bookshelves on the left and right. There are books one by one on the bookshelves, and each book exudes this thick bamboo paper and ink. the taste of.

"A lot of books!"

"There are at least a thousand books here!"

"Naturally, I have been studying for many years, and I have also seen some elders' study rooms. I have never seen so many books!"

"This is "The Analects of Confucius", the transcription is so neat!"

"Although the characters on this "Gongyang" are written in Han Li, how could it be so formally transcribed, with no gaps in the intervals? This is simply impossible!"

"Could it be that these books are rubbings!"

"What is Rubbing?"

"It is rumored that it was too difficult to transcribe the texts on the Xiping Stone Classics in the past, and someone dyed ink and rubbed them down!"

"But this thick book, how to print it!"

"It doesn't matter, buy first and talk!"

"..."

The scholars who entered the study were suddenly shocked, and countless people became very excited with books in their hands.

"How much is this book?" A scholar asked the shopkeeper with the book in his hand.

"Every book has a price in the left corner at the end!"

"Three thousand dollars!"

The scholar looked at it and his eyes lit up: "It's so cheap!"

You must know that many books cost five or six thousand yuan a copy, and there is no market for them. Copying books is a very difficult task. Only poor scholars can make a living by doing this. , won't waste time on this.

"Wrong, today is the grand opening offer, only [-]% off!"

"[-]% off, that's fifteen hundred dollars!"

"Besides, when we are paid scholars now, the study can lose money. If we buy one, we will give another one away. However, we have a rule, because we want to benefit scholars all over the world, so the rule is that within today, each person can only buy five books at most! "

"Okay, here's the eight guan coins, give me five books, I want the ram, the Analects of Confucius, the university, the mean...!"

"Man, go get the book for this scholar!"

"promise!"

A clerk quickly brought up the books he had selected. If you buy five books, you will naturally get five free. There are ten books in total, which is a thick stack.

"I want to sell too!"

"Such a good opportunity, why don't you buy it!"

"..."

Countless scholars began to swarm up.

The twelve Jingping studies in the city have all become crazy at this moment, not only the scholars are crazy, but the people in Luoyang City have become abnormally crazy.

"Mother, how much money is left in our family!"

"The harvest in the field was good last year. I also wove some cloth and bought some money. There should be four or five thousand dollars!"

"Take them all out?"

"doing what!"

"Go buy a book!"

"Buy books!"

"Damn it, our child is five years old. We don't have the money to give him a bachelor's degree, but we have to buy a few books for him to read. If we can become a scholar in the future, then we will die and rest in peace!"

"But books are very expensive now, and we don't have enough money to buy a book. Besides, those study rooms may not be willing to sell them to farmers like us!"

"That was before, but it's different now. I heard that there is a Jingping Study in the next street. The books in it are very cheap. You can buy a book for just over 1000 yuan, and you can buy one for free!"

"I'm going to get the money for such a good thing. Let's go and have a look. If it's too late, it will be a pity if we can't buy it!"

"..."

"Master, we have a lot of surplus this year, why don't I buy a piece of cloth and make you a new set of clothes!"

"No, I want to buy a book, I want to let Xi Yazi!"

"But we don't have enough money to buy books."

"The books in Jingping's study seem to be very cheap. Everyone bought them, even the butcher who sells meat on the street bought several. If his son becomes a scholar, then we will be looked down upon for the rest of our lives!"

"..."

Many people who could not afford a single book in the past have now started to pour into Jingping's study.

"My lord, you have already purchased three books, would you like to leave your name behind, we have a lottery here, as long as the lottery is successful, you can get a set of the Xiping Seven Classics!"

"OK then!"

"I won, hahaha, I, Luo Su, won the lottery!"

"Here's your prize!"

"Jingping Study is indeed a trustworthy person!"

"..."

"Can I draw a lottery?"

"Guest officials who purchase more than three books can participate in the lucky draw!"

"You need three copies to draw a lottery? Buying two copies has already used up the remaining money. If you buy three copies, this month's food will inevitably be miserable, and you will die. If you buy another book, I will also draw a lottery!"

"..."

The new lottery draw has made countless people feel novelty. This is something that does not exist in this era, and it has made many people feel that there seems to be a huge bargain in it, so they bought it one after another.

……

Printing supervisor.

Mu Jing sat firmly on Mount Tai, waiting with peace of mind.

"Jian Ling, the two study rooms in West City are out of stock!"

"Send another five hundred copies each!"

"promise!"

"Eunuch Zhao, how much do we have in stock?"

"Master Supervisor, our inventory is only around [-]!"

"Tell Supervisor Zuo and Supervisor Zhai that the two workshops will work overtime, continue to make paper and print, work in three shifts, and start working day and night without listening. The study cannot be without books!"

"promise!"

"Jianling, there are a few scholars in the books next to Luoshui who are making trouble. They seem to be the people of the gentry. They want to rely on their literary talents to be white wolves. The shopkeeper of the study can't suppress them, and Shilin respects talented people. , They do this, there is nothing wrong with it!" A Jingping personal guard came up to report.

"Brother Zhicai, would you like to meet them for a while!" Hearing this, Mu Jing smiled and looked at Xi Zhicai who was kneeling beside him.

Xi Zhicai was purely curious. He wanted to see what Mujing wanted his three classmates to do, so he stayed to take a look. In the end, he got on a thief ship. If Mujing didn't use his value, That's not the genius businessman Mu Longtu.

"Brother Longtu is trying to drag me into the water!"

Xi Zhicai smiled wryly: "If I go in this line of business, will I become the target of the gentry's resentment in the future!"

"Brother Zhicai is really quick-witted, my little scheme really can't hide from Brother Zhicai's eyes!"

Mu Jing's eyes were clear, and he admitted calmly: "Of course I will not force Brother Zhicai. Brother Zhicai is very clear about what I am about to face in this Jingping study, but Brother Zhicai doesn't want to be in this thick historical record. Among them, do you want to leave your name?"

"I think!"

Xi Zhicai got up, walked away, and said lightly: "It is a grand event that can make everyone in the world have books to read, and only my Xi Zhi can leave a mark in it, leave a name in history, and it will live up to my hard work for many years. Difficult, so what about the gentry, today I will go meet them for a while!"
