"How can this happen!" Zhao Er was shocked. He didn't expect Jiang Fan to give him such a great benefit and refused to agree to anything.
"Any library that gives this book to will give you at least 60% or more of the profit. The villain will not dare to take advantage of the master. Everything will belong to the master. The villain's library will have a name."
Jiang Fan said: "Zhao Er, there is no need to argue. I don't like pushing and shoving. In this way, June 4th, if it works, just do it. If it doesn't, forget it."
He also knows that with the current popularity of the Three Kingdoms, he will indeed make a lot of money. As for 50-50, Zhao Er would never dare to accept it, so he simply settled the decision.
Zhao Er wanted to say something else, but when he saw that Jiang Fan looked unhappy, he nodded quickly: "Thank you so much, young master!" After saying that, he clapped his hands, and two servants walked into the courtyard, carrying a box in their hands.
Zhao Er narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "Sir, this is the silver to purchase the right to write a book. It's ten thousand taels. Please accept it."
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment. Is this buying copyright? Zhao Er can do it. With this, he is really justified. This person's vision and mind are really extraordinary.
"Since it's divided, why do we still do this?" Jiang Fan pretended to be puzzled.
Zhao Erdao: "There are rules in the industry. The young master will give the villain the exclusive right to write a book. It is a benefit for the villain in itself. Naturally, it cannot be given in vain. Master, please don't refuse."
Jiang Fan thought about it and stopped caring: "Well, it just so happened that I wanted to decorate it, so I accepted it."
Zhao Erdao: "Whatever you said, young master, it was not the villain's intention. The masterpiece "Three Kingdoms" will definitely become popular all over the world, and the villain will make a lot of money."
"You do have some brains. You are the first to see a business opportunity, and you are quick and accurate in your actions. I think you are no different at all. You are quite tall and smart. Why don't you call me two, call me Gao." Jiang Fan smiled. road.
Zhao Er's expression changed, and he quickly picked up the wine glass: "I would like to give you a drink, thank you for your support."
——
The next day, Mr. Jiang did not start handing out cards and telling stories. Instead, he hung a sign at the door of Mortal Residence, decorated his home, and started teaching again two months later.
Everyone was disappointed, but fortunately, a bookstore in the west of the city claimed to have the authorization of Mr. Jiang to publish a physical book of "Three Kingdoms", with five more chapters than the existing forty-five. Everyone can enjoy it first.
In fact, this was also under the guidance of Jiang Fan to build momentum for Zhao Er's publication. Of course, this time can be used to decorate.
However, the empress was not used to it and asked Zhao Er to copy the first fifty chapters of the manuscript the next day. And it is required to do it once a day without any mistakes.
This is using power to suppress others. Jiang Fan could only roll his eyes. He couldn't offend the empress, and he couldn't offend his wife even more. With their two identities combined, they absolutely couldn't offend her.
Is that up to you? However, he told Zhao Er that he must not publish more than fifty chapters. Zhao Er is very shrewd and understands everything.
The decoration plan will start after a banquet for all officials is held in three days. The craftsmen were all introduced by Zhao Er, and all of them are good hands.
Jiang Fan has saved more than 30,000 taels of silver these days. Although it is enough to decorate a mortal residence, adding the Qinglian Garden will make it a bit compact. However, if it is simpler, it will not be a big problem.
In order to be more comfortable, he asked Gu Beiyan to sell the pill given by Xu Fu. Surprisingly, the poisonous pill in Jiang Fan's eyes was sold for five thousand taels of silver. Jiang Fan was particularly emotional, it was really expensive to buy drugs.
But as a result, there are already thirty-five thousand taels.
Not only that, Xu Fu heard that Jiang Fan was going to renovate, so he sent someone to bring a lot of materials, saying that he had a lot of materials that he couldn't use and would break if he put them away.
Jiang Fan resolutely refused to take it, but Xu Fu did not let his men take it back. He just sent someone over and said that these were gifts from the empress and did not belong to him.
Xu Fu seemed to know that he was a little unhappy with him?
Jiang Fan was surprised. In fact, Jiang Fan felt that he was a little worried. This Xu Fu may not be that Xu Fu. He may have preconceived ideas. However, when he said this, Jiang Fan did not refuse anymore and ordered Long Er to give Xu Fu a copy of Niannujiao and Chibi Nostalgia written by himself as a thank you.
It is said that the latter was greatly comforted by this thing, and even said that his name would be remembered by future generations.
Jiang Fan couldn't help but curse, most likely this is not how you, an old man, will stay famous...
After hearing about this, Mr. Meng Ao also sent a large number of precious antiques, calligraphy and paintings. He said that he was a martial artist and did not like these elegant things, so he gave them to Jiang Fan for decoration.
This made Jiang Fan very embarrassed. Until now, he had no other personal relationship with this old coach except for meeting him when he was storytelling in Penglai. After getting such a great benefit, he had to find a time to visit. So now he had to hand-write a piece of "Linjiang". Immortal" reward.
With free craftsmen, a large amount of materials, and those antique calligraphy and paintings, Jiang Fan's decoration is finally not so stretched.
What happened next made Jiang Fan even more baffled. Countless officials sent people to deliver all kinds of supplies on the grounds that they couldn't eat for free, and the mortals were piled into a hill.
Gu Beiyan was confused when he looked at the materials in front of him. Could it be that the charm of "Three Kingdoms" was so great that all the officials were attracted by it?
But when Jiang Fan looked at those things, a strange smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Sir...these..."
Jiang Fan smiled: "Take it, take it all. You can't... let down other people's good intentions..."
Seeing him like this, Gu Beiyan knew that Jiang Fan was already scheming, so he stopped saying anything and arranged for Long Yi and the others to make an inventory and register them.
While busy packing, Long Si came to report that someone was visiting Linjiang Pavilion.
Jiang Fan was greatly surprised that it was Uncle Ma who came again.
Jiang Fan exchanged greetings for a while and asked in confusion: "Uncle Ma, why did you come back suddenly?"
Uncle Ma smiled honestly: "I didn't know that I was cooking for Xiao Langjun last time. After the pavilion master found out, he guessed that Lang Jun might have to live in Yangdu for a while. The pavilion master said that living in Yangdu would be difficult. I was afraid that Xiaolang would have too much money. If you don’t have enough money, let me send you some expenses.”
Pointing to the carriage behind him: "This is ten thousand taels of gold. They are all profits that the young man deserves. You can use them first."
Jiang Fan couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect there to be so many. However, Uncle Ma said, this is only part of it.
"Little Lang doesn't know that Linjiang Pavilion has been promoted to eighth in the world. According to Xiao Lang's instructions, two months ago, the output of burning knives was increased tenfold, but the supply is still in short supply and the price remains high. Now Linjiang Pavilion said It’s not an exaggeration to make money every day.”
Jiang Fan was speechless. Is Linjiang Pavilion so profitable?
Uncle Ma also brought Jiang Fan the Spring and Autumn Brush and Black and White Inkstone left by Zhang Zaifu.
"Xiao Lang, the Pavilion Master said that this thing is very important, so it's better for you to keep it yourself. This time, I also asked me to bring it."
Jiang Fan looked at these two things and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He said goodbye to Zhang Zaifu in Linjiang Pavilion that day, and he didn't know where the old man was now.
Uncle Ma didn't stay long, saying that Linjiang Pavilion's business was so good now that it couldn't do without manpower. He just had a meal and rested for a while before hurried back.
The day after he left, Jiang Fan saw an acquaintance again. It was the vanguard of the public losers who arrived quietly. There are a total of twenty Gongshu family elites, headed by Little Beibei's father and the most proud successor of the old patriarch Gongshu Ban - Gongshu Yu.
Jiang Fan was overjoyed. With the money and the help from the public loser, not only the decoration of ordinary people's residences was easy, but also the Qinglian Garden. It was decided that all the craftsmen would be led by Gong Shuyu, and construction would begin the next day.
Jiang Fan also handed over his requirements and drawings to Gong Shuyu, and explained his requirements to him in detail. Gong Shuyu, who has lived with Jiang Fan for many years, can easily understand.
In this way, decoration, which was originally a troublesome matter, has now become a trivial matter.
