"Have you heard? Xue Zixuan was arrested for writing anti-poetry."
"Really or not, is he so stupid?"
"I don't think he is stupid, but he is crazy. He thinks that because he has an uncle who is the county magistrate, he dares to do whatever he wants."
"I'm afraid County Magistrate Xue will suffer a disaster this time. In order to help Xue Zixuan escape the crime, he burned down all the bookstores."
"Now the Xue family will shed their skin even if they don't die."
"..."
The streets, alleys, teahouses and restaurants throughout Qingzhou were talking about this matter, and in a short period of time, the news spread throughout Qingzhou.
Some people feel sorry for Xue Zixuan. After all, he wrote such a fire book as "Three Lives", but ended up committing suicide and writing anti-poetry.
Some are gloating about their misfortune, especially those literati who have published books. Xue Zixuan is domineering when he has some achievements, and he has long been disliked.
More people treat it as gossip. After all, Xue Zixuan is still very famous in Qingzhou.
When talking about Xue Zixuan, it is inevitable to talk about Xu Ning. After all, the cause of this incident was the collision of their new books. Now that Xue Zixuan has been arrested and the book has been burned, the only way to read books is to go to Xinhua Bookstore.
Those who had read the book Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai also began to treat it like a faucet, praising how good the book was when meeting everyone.
As a result, more and more people went to buy books, and it completely became popular in Gyeongju.
Every day, the front door of Xinhua Bookstore is crowded with people. Those who have bought books do not leave, but stay here to listen to "Butterfly Lovers". I feel like I can't get enough of the music.
Xu Ning piled all the printed books in the library, then returned to modern times and asked the printing factory to print another million copies.
According to the current sales trend, I am afraid that this book will be sold to other states before long, so I need to prepare more to avoid running out of stock.
Because we already had the template and cover, the printing speed was a little faster this time, and another 10 million was spent.
He now only has more than 30 million left in his hands.
It cost 20 million to print the book twice. Xu Ning felt that it was quite expensive. Of course, if all 2 million copies of the book were sold, the profit would be extremely considerable.
A copy of 200 Wen, two million copies would be 200 million Wen, which would be 200,000 taels if converted into silver.
According to the silver price of 6 yuan per gram, 200,000 taels is 60 million.
If two hundred thousand taels of silver were exchanged for twenty thousand taels of gold, it would be even more valuable.
Even if the lowest gold price is 450 yuan per gram, 20,000 taels of gold is 450 million.
This is totally huge profit, okay?
Of course, this is the most ideal situation. Two million books cannot be sold out at once. It is a long-term thing, and it is not easy to exchange it for so much gold and bring it back to the modern era.
It would be best if there was a gold mine in modern times, then the gold you brought back from another world would have a legal source, and no one would be afraid of checking it.
But there is no rush, we will wait until all the books are sold out.
This is just one book, and you can earn so much if you sell them all.
Xu Ning is going to get all the books like "Journey to the West", "A Dream of Red Mansions", "Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin", "Jin Ping Mei", "Feng Shen Bang", "Liao Zhai" and "White Snake".
Of course, there are also those Shuangwen. People in other worlds may be slower to accept Shuangwen. After all, people in this world are not as impetuous as people in modern society.
Let them read the classics first, then slowly transition to the works of martial arts novel masters such as Jin Yong and Gu Long, and finally work on cool novels.
The only problem with getting all these books is that it takes too much time. Only Xu Ning knows simplified Chinese. When writing Butterfly Lovers, he read it to Liang Cong and Liang Cong wrote it.
Xu Ning thought he would go crazy if he had to read so many books. Liang Cong couldn't read simplified Chinese characters or understand Mandarin, which was a bit troublesome.
Xu Ning thought about the magical skill of creating a translator out of thin air, so that Liang Cong could read simplified Chinese characters or understand Mandarin, so that he would not have to read to Liang Cong himself.
With a thought, the bronze door appeared in Xu Ning's mind.
After taking a look at the skill of creating something out of nothing, the result showed gray, which made Xu Ning a little disappointed. It seemed that there was a cooling time, but I didn't know how long the cooling time was, and the bronze door didn't explain it.
It seems that I can only read to Liang Cong for the time being.
After spending more than half a month in Gyeongju, the New Year's Eve is approaching.
After leaving the bookstore to Yu Qing, Xu Ning took Liang Cong and Zhao Lingshuang back to Yongping County. When they came back, Liang Cong said he would never ride a motorcycle again. The high speed scared him.
There was no other way, Xu Ning could only hire a carriage, and the three of them sat in the carriage and returned to Yongping.
As soon as he arrived in Yongping County, the court decided the case against Xue Zixuan for writing anti-poems.
Xue Zixuan's family was sent to the army as a warning to others.
Li Kun and the three losers were exiled to a bitter cold place to work as coolies, and they will probably never come back in this life.
Xue Hai was dismissed from office, and the leader of the Xue family in the capital was also reprimanded and fined three years' salary.
…
Xue Mansion in the capital.
Boom!
Xue Zuhe smashed a delicate tea cup on the ground, causing pieces to fly everywhere.
"Dad, don't get so angry." Next to him, a 17-18-year-old woman in red with a delicate appearance and a proud figure spoke.
"They are all a bunch of idiots. They actually wrote anti-poetry in a book. How could there be such stupid beasts in my Xue family!" Xue Zuhe cursed angrily.
Xue Qianqian, a woman in red, said: "Dad, Xue Zixuan is just a branch and has been sent to the army. There is no need to be angry. The empress only fined us three years of salary. It's no big deal."
"Three years of salary is a minor matter, but the empress was already dissatisfied with my Xue family, and now she has taken advantage of it. If my Xue family and the Qin family hadn't married, which made the empress have some scruples, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as simple as a fine of salary. "
"Dad, doesn't the empress just want to take back the rights in our hands? Why don't we give it to her?" Xue Qianqian was a little confused. The empress wanted to take back the fiefdoms and military power of the nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but she would still retain the nobles for them. privileges.
Xue Qianqian thought it was nothing, and couldn't understand why his father kept holding on to it.
Xue Zuhe sighed, "You don't understand. If we didn't marry the Qin family, it would be okay to hand over the fiefdom and military power, but it's no longer possible. Once we become friends, we will betray other nobles and life will not be easy."
Xue Qianqian snorted, "Is it possible that these nobles still dare to unite to fight against the empress?"
Xue Zuhe said hurriedly: "You must not say this nonsense. Okay, you can go out first. By the way, let your second brother go find out where this Xu Ning is. There is something fishy about Xue Zixuan. Xue Haixin said it , it should be Xu Ning’s fault, if he dares to ruin our Xue family, then he won’t even think about having a good life.”
"Okay, I get it."
Xue Qianqian came out of the room and rolled her eyes. Her father asked her second brother to investigate Xu Ning. She could follow him. She hadn't played outside for a long time, so she could take this opportunity to go out.
The second brother is a top killer. Dad must want the second brother to kill Xu Ning.
The book written by Xue Zixuan is actually good. Now that he is dead, I will help him avenge himself.
