Mingshi

Chapter 928
Three more days passed.

The books printed in the second round were also sold out, and Xu Jie only recovered a few thousand taels of 5 taels of silver.The most important thing is that Luo Xin's Juxian Bookstore still has a steady stream of books for sale.

By this time, many people could no longer sit still.

The first wave of people was Xu Jie, who invested real money in it, and saw that it was in vain, without even hearing a sound.

The second wave of people are the bosses of major bookstores in the capital. Although Xu Jie’s money is paid these days, these people are all businessmen. up.Obviously, after this fight, the bookstore's business has completely slumped.They didn't expect Luo Xin to be so capable, no matter how Luo Xin and Xu Jie win or lose, these bookstore owners are the real losers.At that time, Xu Jie let go of his hands, and their bookstore should also go bankrupt.Even if Xu Jie buys a batch of books in the future, he will make up for the money they lost these days.But then what?

They are sure that in the next three to five years, the bookstore may not be able to sell a book every day.The rent and labor are losing money every day, and it will take three to five years. This is the rhythm of bankruptcy.

The third wave of people are Zhan Shifu Luo Xin's subordinates. Seeing Juxian Bookstore sell books like this, they are all terrified.Can't sleep all night.

This can't sleep, the bookstore has the money they invested, the bookstore has such a compensation, let them go to the wind in the future!
this day.

A piece of news suddenly came out of the capital, and the news spread to every corner of the capital in just one morning.It made it known to all women and children, and teahouses and restaurants gathered to discuss it.

"You all know Juxian Bookstore, right?"

"I know, who doesn't know about Juxian Bookstore nowadays? That's a fight with all the old bookstores in the capital! And they beat the old bookstores to shame."

"Then do you know who is behind Juxian Bookstore?"

"Who doesn't know this? You don't know? Your news is too outdated. Lord Luo Xinluo! Lord Luo smashed the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion for the sake of the bookstore. Who doesn't know this!"

"Then do you know that Juxian Bookstore and major bookstores in Beijing have reduced their prices to [-]% off?"

"I know, what's wrong?"

"What's the matter? The 10% discount is losing money. You have also seen how many books Juxian Bookstore sells every day. You can also calculate how much money Juxian Bookstore spends every day. Let me tell you, after these days, Juxian Bookstore paid at least [-] taels of silver."

"10 taels, that much?"

"Think about it with your head, how much will you lose if you reduce the price of the original thing to [-]% off, and sell it in such a large amount every day?"

"Lord Luo is so rich!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect Mr. Luo to be so rich. I don't understand now. Mr. Luo also came from a poor family. He is a person with no family background. He has only been an official for a few years, and he dares to pay 10 taels of silver. Where did it come from?"

"I have to ask again? When Lord Luo was in the southeast, he served as the commissioner of the city, and he had a lot of money to earn. I think that the embezzlement of Lord Luo is more than 10 taels. Otherwise, he would not dare to pay such a compensation. It is estimated that at least a hundred Ten thousand taels."

"So Luo Xin is a big corrupt official!"

Xu Jie sat by eating sugar in the back garden of the mansion, holding fish food in his hand, throwing it into the pond bit by bit, watching the fish in the pond swarming for food, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Luo Xin, is your reputation bad this time? Tomorrow I will present it to His Majesty to see how you respond."

Taibai restaurant.

The bosses of eighteen bookstores in the capital gathered together, all of them frowning.An old man said:

"It is estimated that this matter is about to pass. The rumors of Luo Xin's corruption are getting more and more intense. His Majesty will not let him go. Once he is dismissed from office, Juxian Bookstore will be a piece of meat. At that time, we have to grab it to make up for the shortfall these days. .”

"Alas..." Another boss sighed and said, "It doesn't matter if the shortfall in front of us is filled. In the next three to five years... Sigh, I don't know how many of us eighteen people will be able to sit in five years from now." it's here."

Everyone was silent. They were almost certain that there would not be [-] people sitting here next time, maybe half of them would be absent because their bookstore had closed down.

"I really regret it!"

"Ugh……"

James House.

Dozens of officials were all in a panic, looking at each other in blank dismay.Now that they have lost money, if Luo Xinzai is dismissed because of corruption, their money will really be wasted.

What does this tell them about the future?
They even have the heart to die.

"Master Ma, we..."

Ma Chunshan sat there silently without speaking.

"Master Ma, why don't we go to Lord Luo's place after we leave duty today?"

"I want to go to you guys." Ma Chunshan said in a muffled voice, "Go to Master Luo at this time, you can really do it."

Embarrassment appeared on everyone's face, and they argued, "We... we just went to see..."

"What are you going to see? To see if you have lost all your money? Are you going to make trouble once you have lost all your money?"

"No, how could we?"

"No? If not, just wait obediently."

"This……"

The deadly silence returned to the lobby.

Luofu.

Lu Daqing stood in front of Luo Xin, his face beaming with joy and said: "Master Hou, Xu Jie even did the thing of framing you for corruption, it seems that they can't hold on any longer."

Luo Xin shook his head, sighed thoughtfully, seeing Luo Xin frowned, Lu Daqing also showed worry, just looked at Luo Xin, not daring to speak.

"Daqing! Xu Jie can't hold on anymore, and I'm afraid my gang can't hold on either."

"They? Why can't they hold on? We make money."

"But they don't know!"

"Then... don't they dare to make trouble?"

"Why not? They invested real money and are shareholders. We can't be unreasonable."

"Hmph, they're just a bunch of white-eyed wolves. I think it's better not to tell them, but to test them. Those who can't share the hardships with Lord Hou, kick them out."

"Let's not test, sometimes it's a sad thing. How much money are we making now?"

Lu Daqing immediately beamed with joy and said, "My lord, I didn't expect that we would sell so many of them. In just a dozen days, we made more than [-] taels of silver."

"In the next three to five years, you won't be able to make money by buying books. You go to Zhan Shifu and ask my subordinates to come to me after they are on duty. When you come back, prepare a set of typefaces for me. In the box."

"Yes, Lord Hou."
