The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son

So soon, the bookseller played a sign.

Hearing about the publication of Qi Guogong's new book, the capital was sensational again.

The next morning.

A group of scholars at Xishan Academy appeared at the door of major bookstores when Tian Gang was dawning.

Not only the students of Xishan Academy, but also other readers ... I am also curious about this.

Of course, they have a critical eye, they just want to see it.

Everything is like a storm.

However, everything related to Qi Guogong is always extremely quick, so the bookstore opened its door to sell.

A huge book, only 35 yuan.

Thirty-five dollars ... It ’s almost impossible to buy books in this era.

And it is still so thick, it can be said that the price is sufficient and sufficient.

After all, in this era, it is still in a semi-mechanical and manual state. The labor required for printing workshops is amazing. Not only that, ink, paper, and proofreading are all not small.

But when people picked up this heavy book, they suddenly understood why this book is so cheap.

Shen Ao took the leave with Flyball Camp last night, and then spent a night outside the bookstore. The door opened and the first one rushed into the bookstore.

He is the apprentice of Qi Guogong and the most determined follower of Fang Jifan.

After taking the book, he felt that the book had a sense of cheapness.

This made him murmur quite a bit.

Who is his teacher, this is Wushuang Guoshi, a great talent waiting for the world, his books, actually use such poor paper, this ...

It was just too late to think at this time. There were already many people behind him, so Shen Ao held the book and hurriedly squeezed out the crowd. There were many students around him, and Shen Ao was excited. … Immediately after ... a completely strange text appeared in front of him.

He didn't recognize these words, he just grouped them together, but made him feel ... extremely strange.

This is the person at ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ ... that's a lot.

Many people's complexions suddenly became gloomy. Their first thought was that this must not have been written by Qi Guogong, and there must be some misunderstanding.

Could it be that the bookseller wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to accumulate money in the name of Qi Guogong?

But ... such a thought is really magical.

Who has the courage to dare to play the title of Qi Guogong to sell books?

But more people, holding this book every day, began to read hard.

They always feel that the intention of their teacher or teacher is hidden in this book.

Although the words here are extremely rough, paper and ink also bring discomfort, but people still believe that the book written by Qi Guogong must be full of deep meaning.

...

"What are these things!"

The first person who broke the silence was Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Hou shouted the book in annoyance: "I thought it was something amazing. It turned out ... it was such a thing, such superficial knowledge, that he needed to be repaired? The old man was taking the wrong medicine, psychiatry Call people from the psychiatric department and let them tie up the old party to treat the disease. "

Although he lost his temper, Zhu Houzhao picked up the book again and muttered in his mouth: "This guy ... what the **** is he doing, but such a book ... no one should read it."

…………

Xiao Jing quickly entered the Fengtian Temple.

Emperor Hongzhi was uneasy for these two days, so Xiao Jing always accompanied him carefully.

He carefully saluted, and then said: "Your Majesty ..."

"Huh?" Emperor Hongzhi didn't raise his head, frowned, and looked at the book named "Ming Song" before him.

This book is named "Ming Song", which has a somewhat festive meaning, Daming Song.

The problem is that this guy Fang Jifan ...

"Hey ..." Emperor Hongzhi sighed dejectedly and shook his head.

Then he looked up and looked at Xiao Jing before he said, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Jing said: "Your Majesty, I heard ... Jingli's booksellers began to sell Qi Guogong's books. I heard that Qi Guogong printed a lot of books and shouted at bookstores everywhere.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly blushed old: "Whereafter?"

"It was hot for a while at first. It is said that thousands of copies were sold in a few hours ..."

Thousands ...

This is definitely extremely high sales.

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to think that thousands of people would soon mock him.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned, and his brows seemed to be knotted, and wondered: "These booksellers are really afraid that the world will not be messed up. Shouldn't they read the books first?"

"After all, this is written by Qi Guogong, and booksellers are still very welcome." Xiao Jing gave the emperor Hongzhi a careful look, barely smiling, and said: "However, Your Majesty ... there is also good news ... that is ... After a few hours, the sales volume of this book began to plummet. Obviously, some people already know the contents of it, so many people began to disperse. That is to say ... this book sells at least a thousand more copies, There should be no more concern, Your Majesty ... no worries. "

Emperor Hongzhi's face softened a lot when he heard this. Although he had already felt that the person who saw the book was whispering behind his back, and there were even people making fun, but if the influence of this book is within a controllable range, It is a gratifying thing.

Emperor Hongzhi coughed: "Oh, I know, Ji Fan is not very serious about this book revision, and the sales of these Xu are quite good. Today, this is a great drink. It is to let him eat a lesson. He is not a stupid person. On the contrary, it is Very clever, but sometimes this cleverness is used ... "

Emperor Hongzhi said, the afterglow of his eyes swept to one of the little knowledge about sow postpartum care in Mingsong. Emperor Hongzhi suddenly felt spicy and became blind, and then the tone increased: "Use In the mess of things. "

Xiao Jing whispered: "Yes, yes, yes, what His Majesty said so much."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed again: "I will never mention this book again in the future."

Xiao Jing said with a low eyebrow: "Yes, the slave-servant obeyed."

…………

Chen Xian went to Beijing for the first time.

Although I went to Beijing to just look at the excitement, entering Beijing is a matter of bragging for a lifetime like him.

Although he hired a short-term worker for Shang Jia, he rushed the car for him and sent a truckload of goods, but after the goods were delivered, he had to spend a few hours wandering in Beijing to add something to his mother-in-law.

He is from Luanzhou, Yongzhi Prefecture, Beizhili.

There is a remote place. Although it belongs to Beizhili, it is extremely difficult to enter Beijing.

He wandered all the way, such as Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, at this time feeling the prosperity and wealth of the capital, could not help but envy.

Can't help but sigh: How good it would be if I were born here.

at this time……

A familiar voice sounded on the street corner.

It was a bookstore, and there were guys shouting hard in front of it.

Of course, as far as Chen XIII is concerned, this scholar's business has nothing to do with himself.

But the man said: "Qi Gong Gong's masterpiece" Ming Song ", come and see, come and buy ..."

Qi Guogong ...

Chen Thirteen suddenly ... can't move anymore.

Yeah, it's Qi Guogong.

Chen Shisan had long heard of the name of Qi Guogong in Luanzhou. A relative came back from the capital and talked about Qi Guogong vividly. Since then ... The captain of Tun Tianwei was stationed in the state, and even some merchants came in. They are also talking about Qi Guogong.

Of course ... The three characters of Qi Guogong, which recalled the memory in Chen XIII's heart, were the rent-free recruitment of tenant farmers in Xishan Qianzhuang.

This recruitment of tenant farmers is rent-free, and there are rules. This first-class is someone in the family who is in the army, and the second is that there is no family in the family. These two types of people take care of others first. Rear.

Chen Shisan belongs to the second category. He doesn't believe in the pie in the sky, but ... when he applied with the mentality to give it a try, he actually gave him a piece of land.

The land is not large. The Chen family consists of seven people, 20 acres, and the land is not fertile, but ... With this rent-free land, young people will find some errands and do short-term work in their spare time. The days of Chen Xian, who was a tenant in the past, were as happy as a fairy.

Now taking advantage of the farming slack, he came to work short-term and heard the familiar three words of Qi Guogong. Chen Xian suddenly felt that his nose was a bit sour. His eyes seemed to be in the sand. He rubbed and his eyes became red.

Involuntarily, he moved his steps and walked to the bookstore, curiously looking at the book in front of him.

This bookstore is obviously no longer interested.

Perhaps it is because the bookstore has accumulated a lot of Mingsong, so that in order to quickly sell these books and reduce some losses, the merchants let the boys sell along the street.

"how much is it?"

For the book, Chen Shisan was in awe.

He felt that since it was Qi Guogong's book, he would be able to avoid evil and take advantage of it, and he could be used as a door god.

It's just ... he's a little bit shy, fearing the high price.

"It used to be thirty-five dollars, but now twenty-five dollars are sold."

call……

Twenty-five renminbi, for people like Chen Shisan ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ can also grind his teeth to buy a copy, at least it is much cheaper than he expected.

This seems to be his first such arrogance: "Buy!"

then……

The mother-in-law ’s cloth was not torn anymore. She only bought some bits and pieces of food that the child ate, wrapped it up, holding the book, and Chen Shisan returned.

Back in the village, Chen Shisan carefully put the baby book up.

I bought the book ... always have a look.

In fact, Chen Shisan barely recognizes some characters, which is not a big word. After all ... People need to use money, there are words on the money, and there are some very commonly used words.

Although in the eyes of the scholar, he is still a savage illiterate.

But he opened the "Ming Song" and took a deep breath, because in front of him, it seemed to open a new door.

These words ... although many don't know much, but some ... are recognized.
