Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 350

Even though Zhang Boyue is just a businessman, the literacy rate in Bianliang is very high, and ordinary people have attended private schools for several years.

A rich merchant family like Zhang Boyue pays more attention to articles, and they let Zhang Boyue study Confucianism for two or three years. Although his grades are not very good, Zhang Boyue has also developed some good habits of reading.

He opened the book as he used to read, shaking his head and reading silently, but soon found that this book does not need to be read like this at all.

The content of this book is very simple, the words are like flowing water, it is very easy to read, and you can scan ten lines at a glance.

Zhang Boyue didn't feel anything at first when he watched it, but soon when the crossing section appeared, Zhang Boyue instantly admired it.

"This is really unprecedented. I, a member of the Song Dynasty, can travel back to the Tang Dynasty!"

After thinking for a while, Zhang Boyue also quickly realized the refreshing feeling of yy, and said it was wonderful.

People who read cool texts for the first time couldn’t stop when they saw something cool. Zhang Boyue gradually felt that he had also entered the world of Tang Dynasty where Kawagoe was. I can't help but read from the manuscript:
"...Don't you see it, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning. Don't you see it, the mirror in the high hall is sad and white, and the morning is like blue silk and the evening is snow... Good poetry! You still look at Kawagoe!"

Zhang Boyue's family originally planned to train him to study, but his academic performance was not good, and he failed to pass the exam many times, so he simply came to Bianliang City to study and do business with his father.

It's just that his family taught him strictly since he was a child. Unexpectedly, Zhang Boyue came to Bianliang City from his closed hometown for the first time. Seeing the prosperity of the city, he was soon fascinated by wine and sex, and secretly spent hundreds of dollars at Yingyinger's place. I can hardly keep the money I have kept from my family, but I still don’t feel that there is anything wrong with me, I just feel that I am pursuing a better life, and the love with Yingying’er is the whole of his life, and nothing else in my heart matters. I can't put it in.

However, seeing Kawagoe's struggles in the front line and building up his career step by step in this book, Zhang Boyue felt more excited than when he was infatuated with Yingying when he was a child, as if he was the one who was making great achievements.

Wake up and hold the power of the world, and lie drunk on the lap of beauties, among the beauties in this book, which one is not more attractive than Yingying'er?In this book, Kawagoe's life is even more enviable to Zhang Boyue.

Only halfway through the book, the bustard came to Chuan and said that Yingying'er might not be able to come and drink with him because she was drunk tonight.

But at this time, Zhang Boyue, who was addicted to the book, only begged the bustard to let him take the book back and read it.

The bustard naturally agreed to this small request from the big financial master.

Zhang Boyue went out with the book, and continued reading in the carriage. After returning home, he went into the study to light up the night.

Seeing that the remaining pages of the book in his hands were getting thinner and thinner, until Chuan Yue met Cheng Yaojin and talked about the war in Gao Gouli, the book finally turned to the last page.

"To predict what will happen next, please buy the second volume of Chuan Xiaolang's Resurrection of the Tang Dynasty."

"Is this gone?"

"Did Kawagoe marry the county magistrate's daughter?"

"Why don't you write more?"

"Too short, not enough to see!"

The first book of "The Resurrection of Chuan Xiaolang in the Tang Dynasty" only has [-] words, and the third chapter was broken before it was finished. Zhang Boyue read it like a cat scratching his heart, and couldn't wait to know what happened next.

But this book is already so thick that it can be finished in other books. Zhang Boyue asked himself that it is already amazing that someone can write so many words. endless.

But after reading so many words, his heart is still not at ease, and he doesn't know when the next volume will be released?

When I looked up, I saw that the light of the oil-saving lamp on the table was already dimmed. It turned out that the pot of lamp oil was almost burnt out.The sky outside the window has turned light blue, and he actually just read the book all night!

Fortunately, his father and elder brother were not at home, otherwise he would have to be scolded.

Zhang Boyue found a boy and asked him to go to the street to find out if the second volume of "The Resurrection of Chuan Xiaolang in the Tang Dynasty" had been released. He suddenly realized that he had no intention of meeting Yingying'er anymore than reading novels. Not too much, compared to the two heroines in the novel, Yingying'er is really just a vulgar fan.

Even now, when he thinks back on his behavior of waiting for Yingying'er, he feels a little stupid, and the object of his fantasy has become Chuan Xiaolang's childhood sweetheart.

He began to think about whether he could marry the same steadfast and beautiful wife, preferably born in a farming family like Kawagoe's lady, or a beautiful widow whose husband died just after getting married, so that he could love her as much as Time Traveling, Let her be flattered and then obsessed with herself.

Before leaving Dengzhou, Sun Xin printed more than 1000 volumes of "The Resurrection of the Tang Dynasty" for Xie Zhen in advance. After knowing that Zhao Ji liked this book, Xie Zhen took people to distribute all the more than 1000 volumes for free. go out.

The reason is also very simple. If everyone likes to read this book, then the first volume will be regarded as an advertisement. If everyone does not like to read it, the 1000-plus volumes will not be sold anyway, and it is not a big loss to just give it away.

Facts have proved that his marketing method has indeed played an excellent role.

The next day, someone went directly to Su Yuanjing's house and asked if Xie Zhen still had the next manuscript.

Xie Zhen is working overtime on the production side, and has just completed hundreds of books. Seeing that the book is so popular, she simply sold the first batch of books.

These days, there is no concept of copyright. On the contrary, it is not easy to find books, and anyone who can get the manuscript can print it.

It is almost inevitable that a manuscript with such a large circulation as "Chuan Xiaolang's Resurrection of the Tang Dynasty" will be pirated, but Xie Zhen and the others are not afraid at all.

The price of a book in this era is about [-] yuan, which is as expensive as a sky-high price for the people in Shandong, but for the people in Bianliang, it is only two days' wages for a coolie.

Many people can afford it.

It is precisely because of the high income that many pirated booksellers have room to profit. They use lower-quality printed materials to seize the market, mainly focusing on the book purchase needs of the low-level people and poor literati.

All new books that appear on the market will be collected by these bookstores and pirated at the right time.

The first volume of "Chuan Xiaolang Resurrection of the Tang Dynasty" has only issued a total of more than 1000 copies. For other books, this is already a large number of copies. However, due to the popularity of this book, there are still shortages in the market In this case, the books that were originally given away for free have been fired to a price of more than 100 texts.

However, when the pirated bookseller got the most popular manuscript of "The Resurrection of the Tang Dynasty", he was immediately dumbfounded. Such a small character, such a large amount of content?
The pirated booksellers calculated the price by themselves and found a craftsman who could engrave small characters. The price of this board alone was several times that of printing other large-character books, not to mention using ink to print such small characters. It will be very large. Once it is a little worn out, it will be printed in a messy piece, and the gain outweighs the loss every minute.

And readers are also aware of the rareness of this book, the large volume and full control. Many people are looking forward to the release of the second volume, but at the same time they are a little afraid. The price is likely to be a high price of several hundred Wen.

And when the second volume appeared on the market urgently, everyone was shocked when they heard the price of the book.

Not three hundred, not one hundred, not even ninety, but only eighty.

Eighty cents is not enough to buy a set of the most inferior Analects of Confucius from Fujian Loopring. The Second Volume of Resurrection" has a full 12 words, and the price is only [-] yuan!
This price is not only acceptable to the rich and the middle class, but even some poor ordinary people are willing to buy this book home and read it, because there is almost no reading threshold for this book, as long as you can read and understand this book content.

The story of the second volume continues, and Kawagoe's activity map finally came from the county to the state capital. Because he got rid of his deadly enemy, he took the opportunity to rise up and entered the officialdom, and accepted the county magistrate's daughter, and even helped the old man get promoted.

And as the plot progresses, the charm of "Chuan Xiaolang Resurrection of the Tang Dynasty" is more and more revealed. This book is completely different from the current novel. The world of this book is bigger, with various characters, and the sense of rhythm and The cool point is incomparable to the books of this era, and the readers who read the cool text for the first time are dying of desire.

The monthly sales volume of the second volume of "Chuan Xiaolang Resurrection of the Tang Dynasty" ended at more than 5000 copies. For the population of Bianliang City, which is more than 100 million, this figure is also very amazing. The average book can print a book. A thousand volumes means a large printing volume, and even if a thousand volumes are sold for three to five years, they may not be sold out.

And "The Resurrection of Chuan Xiaolang in the Tang Dynasty" sold more than 5000 copies in a month, and the price of each copy was [-] yuan, which seemed to be no profit to outsiders. Only Xie Bao knew that stencil printing was much cheaper than stereotype printing. That's too much, their profit for each book is [-] ren, and their net income has reached [-] ren in this month alone.
