Datang: Let you supervise the country and become an emperor through the ages

Chapter 93

[Hey, something’s wrong. What did old guy Li Er ask just now? How does he know about paper mills and printing plants?Oh, yes, Baiqi! 】

【Why did I forget this? No wonder Li Junxian didn’t follow, I dared to inquire about it. It seems that I have already found out all about my property. 】

[Oh, forget it, there is nothing we can do about it. Who made him the emperor?Nothing in this world can be hidden from his eyes! 】

[However, when will Li Er, this old bastard, get out of here? Let's talk about it after earning it! 】

Treason!Li Shimin was speechless and cursed in his heart.

This Nizi never thought that he is already the prince, and he has a few more years to live. When he is gone, isn't everything in the Tang Dynasty still his own?

But seeing how hard he worked to explain punctuation marks to himself, Li Shimin didn't plan to argue with him.

"Well, the punctuation mark is very good, I have to think about it!" Li Shimin nodded at Li Fu after a rough study, "It seems that Fuer, you are lazy, and you are not always idle on weekdays. , keep up the good work!"

Li Fu's eyes froze, and the look he looked at Li Shimin suddenly became strange.

[What does Li Er, an old man, mean?What exactly is this going to do?It doesn't sound like you're praising me! 】

[Why keep up the good work?Do I need to keep up my efforts?If I ask you to abdicate to me now, you're afraid that you won't be able to do so! 】

Li Shimin clenched his fists hard, he was already powerless to complain about this rebellious son.

But when he thought that he could use punctuation marks to show off in front of the officials next time, Li Shimin's mood instantly became more comfortable.

Nizi, let me remember, I will settle the score for you in the future!Li Shimin thought bitterly in his heart, and stood up, "Well, it's getting late, I have something to do, so I won't stay."

Li Shimin didn't want to stay any longer, he had rubbed against Li Fu with more than a dozen watermelons just now, and this guy had already scolded himself in his heart, if he rubbed against him for dinner again, maybe he would scold him again!

On the other hand, Shen Wansan was encouraged by Li Shimin to work harder.

When night fell, the first copy of A Dream of Red Mansions had already been printed and bound, and Shen Wansan hurriedly brought it to Li Fu for review.

Li Fu looked carefully at the newly released "Dream of Red Mansions", and they were all formulated in strict accordance with his requirements. The cover of kraft paper, embedded printing and big gold-stamped characters made him feel awesome at first glance.

When this thing is on the market, it will absolutely kill all the books on the market instantly.

"Good job. When can we start selling? What's the situation at the store?" Li Fu asked casually.

"Work overtime tonight, and there should be [-] volumes of finished products tomorrow morning." Shen Wansan replied cautiously, "The store is ready-made, and according to His Royal Highness, the lintel has been changed again, and the staff are also in place. They are all slaves. Trained by myself."

Shen Wansan really deserves to be the richest man in Ming Dynasty. When it comes to business matters, Li Fu doesn't need to worry too much. He has already taken care of all the things that should be worried about.

The most important thing is that Shen Wansan is absolutely [-]% loyal to Li Fu, and Li Fu doesn't have to worry about Shen Wansan's betrayal at all.

"Your Highness, this is the expense account for the past few days. Please take a look at it. The current account is all related to expenses, but when our bookstore officially opens tomorrow, there should be a large amount of income!" Shen Wansan handed over the account book with both hands.

Li Fu waved his hand, with a look of disgust on his face, "Take it away, take it away, what the hell are you talking about, what do you want to show Gu to see what you decide? You keep this thing well, don't show it to Gu."

"Since I said I trust you and let you do things for Gu, I absolutely believe that you will not lie to Gu."

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness, for your trust!" Shen Wansan was moved, and immediately fell to his knees.

"Your Highness, please rest assured, tomorrow the servant will definitely find ways to make "Dream of Red Mansions" a big hit..." Shen Wansan's eyes were determined.

"It's sure to sell well, so it's not necessary to find a way." Li Fu heard this, but his face was calm, as if he was full of confidence in "Dream of Red Mansions".

On the second day, a new store called 'Red Mansion Bookstore' opened on the busiest street in Chang'an.

The antique furnishings, the red decoration all over the body, and the prince's seal on the plaque immediately attracted the eyes of countless people.

After Jinyang Princess Li Mingda and eldest grandson Pingting heard the news, they immediately summoned their friends and brought a large group of wealthy daughters to join them.

Therefore, as soon as the bookstore opened, the hundreds of square meters of the bookstore was already full of people.

Seeing so many dignitaries and ladies entering, the nearby common people were also attracted, so more people poured in one after another, making the shop even more crowded.

The interior decoration of the store is strictly in accordance with Li Fu's requirements. There are large ink paintings on the four walls, and there are classic poems from "A Dream of Red Mansions" on them.

When these were discovered by the literati and poets in Chang'an City, the entire Red Chamber Bookstore was completely crowded.

The first batch of literati who poured into the store soon discovered that this book was different from what they had seen before.

The book is not only of good quality and good printing, but after a cursory look at the content marked on the wall, there are also applause, and soon some people can't wait to buy it, so they can see it quickly.

But at the beginning, many people were still hesitant. After all, the books printed on such top-quality paper and the content are so novel, so you don’t need to guess.
But there are always rich people, especially the wealthy daughters brought by Li Mingda and Changsun Pingting. After inquiring about the price, Shen Wansan, who was temporarily acting as the shopkeeper, extended a slap with a smile.

"The shop is open today, and it is a big bargain. Today, only [-] books are sold, and each book is priced at [-] yuan. Each person is limited to five books. Everyone, hurry up. If it is sold out, it will be gone. Tomorrow, the book will return to the original price for one." It's a hundred cents."

What Shen Wansan said shocked everyone who heard it instantly. It was only fifty dollars, even if the original price was one hundred coins, few people present would think it was expensive!
So many people thought that Shen Wansan had said the wrong price.

"Boss, tell me the truth, today I only sell fifty copper coins, you didn't lie to me?"

"Fifty copper coins, this is too cheap, even if it is sold for a hundred copper coins, it is cheap enough!"

"Fuck, why don't you ask a fart, boss, this is money, give me five copies!"

"You, damn it, I want five copies too!"

"I want it too, I want it too..."
