Sun Zengde, the chief envoy of Zhejiang Province, took office in the eighth year of Chenghua.
The Zhejiang Publishing House was established in the sixth year of Chenghua. At the beginning, it only printed The Analects. But there were so many bookstores printing the Analects that they didn't make any money at all, and they added money to it every year.
Then, in the ninth year of his stay in Chenghua, the new chief envoy changed the printing office for the first time. He personally wrote a preface to the excerpt. Although it did not create much profit for the printing office, the sales volume was better than that of The Analects of Confucius.
Their typesetting and printing technology are even inferior to those of the well-established printing houses in Beijing, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Xi'an and other places.
I can only overtake in curves.
He began printing other books.
Slowly things are improving.
At the beginning, the local finance department did not need to put money into it.
It is the first book about Xu Youzhen to truly achieve overtaking in corners and even make large-scale profits.
Selling like crazy.
It was also the first time that a printing office paid more money to the court in one year than the entire county.
A total of 150,000 taels of silver.
Within a year, they worked overtime without stopping. During the busiest period, more than 6,000 people worked together for half a year. The printing office earned 230,000 taels of silver and sold 890,000 books, totaling 450,000 taels.
This also sets a precedent.
Then Zhejiang got a taste of the sweetness and began to frantically look for storybooks to be printed in the market. The next year, Hua Qian Xia was officially released, bringing a tax revenue of 230,000 taels of silver to the court, and sales of 930,000 copies, totaling 6 One hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver.
Then there is the masterpiece Where to Find the Emperor, which opens the fifteenth year of Chenghua.
In fact, Sun Zengde hesitated about this story.
But after hesitating, he decided to go ahead.
In fact, this was also a surprise for Zhu Jianshen.
Making money is not the purpose, the purpose is to make money circulate...
After Zhu Jianshen read the book for a while, he looked at Zhao Huanong who had been waiting aside.
"How are things going in Jiangnan?"
"Your Majesty, Wang Guo and others have arrived in Nanjing, and all the senior ministers have also been notified. Once the matter at the Wei Guogong Mansion is over, Your Majesty will receive letters from Nanjing's hundreds of officials, as well as petitions from the senior ministers at home. At that time, the court will It's ready." Zhao Huanong said quickly and respectfully.
Zhu Jianshen nodded after listening.
"Move quickly, I can't wait."
The squires in the south are like a group of weaklings who cannot be killed. Zhu Jianshen went there, saying that he wanted to pay homage to Taizu's mausoleum, but in fact he just gave these people a blow on the head.
"Yes, Your Majesty, after I go down, I will write a letter to Wang Guo."
"Where is that Wang Miao..."
"Your Majesty, the convoy escorting Wang Miao arrived in Hangzhou three days ago. It should be able to reach the capital before the Lantern Festival."
After Zhu Jianshen listened to Zhao Huanong's words, he didn't say anything more.
He stood up and went to Kunning Palace like every year to have New Year's Eve dinner with his queen, the beauties and children in the harem.
In the fifteenth year of Chenghua's reign, Zhu Jianshen had a son and a daughter.
They are the second daughter born to Han family of North Korea, and the fourth son born to him by a chosen servant.
The princess was named Zhu Mingxiu, and the fourth son Zhu Jianshen named him Zhu Youyu...
The emperor's life was boring. In addition to giving birth to children, he also trained people. Going to Nanjing early would also allow Zhu Jianshen to change his life and adjust his mood.
During the Chinese New Year, ordinary people wear new clothes, eat meat and drink wine.
Officials, on the other hand, are not so comfortable.
On the day of the New Year seal, it is also the power field where all the officials in the capital express their opinions on the team to each other.
Li Xian and Xu Youzhen held banquets one after another.
However, because the two of them were scolded by the emperor last time when they were fighting in the ring, they had a tacit agreement to stagger the time.
One is the fourth day after the New Year, which is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and the other is the sixth day after the New Year, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.
More than 60 officials, large and small, came to Li Xian's mansion, covering a wide range of areas.
When Xu Youzhen held a banquet on the sixth day of the lunar month, more than 40 officials came. Before Wang Miao's incident happened, Xu Youzhen's reputation was much higher than that of Li Xian. But after Wang Miao's fall, Xu Youzhen also took time to After checking his team, he took a group of black sheep out of his team, and several people were investigated and dismissed from office because of their close personal relationship with Wang Miao...
The two of them sang each other's opera, and Han Yong was watching from under the stage. He didn't even go to anyone who invited him to dinner... M.biQuge.biZ
Of course, there are no longer a few officials like Han Yong.
………………
In Nanjing, the Duke of Wei's mansion was decorated with lanterns, played and played, and it was very lively.
The old Duke of Wei, Xu Chengzong, was in a very good mood. He got up early and watched his servants clean the garden. He also went to his son's room and told the maid to clean it well.
Xu Chengzong was only so happy.
Because his son is back.
Xu Pu was away from Annan for four years and finally returned home.
When he came back this time, Xu Chengzong made up his mind to let his son get married and have children as soon as possible.
In fact, Xu Chengzong knew one thing clearly. Although his son wanted to restore the glory of his ancestors and catch up in the footsteps of his ancestor Xu Da, this matter was too difficult and there was no chance that he could do it.
But he couldn't attack Xu Pu, he could only silently support him from behind.
This time not only Xu Pu came back, but also Sun Lian's disciples of Wu Xun returned to the capital. When they all participated in the New Year's Huagai Hall banquet, they were praised by the emperor and received rewards.
After the banquet, everyone went back to their homes. Most of the Wuxun disciples who went out to Annan were from the capital. Only Xu Pu was from Nanjing. When others went home to celebrate the New Year, he also went home to celebrate the New Year, but it was Xu Youzhen's who went there. Home.
When Xu Chengzong learned this news, he almost lost his temper and immediately wrote a letter urging him to come back as soon as possible.
Xu Pu had no choice but to pack his bags, bid farewell to his adoptive father Xu Youzhen, and embark on the road back home to meet his biological father.
Here Xu Chengzong was happily waiting for his son to come home, but he didn't know that someone had already targeted him and wanted to drag him into a big incident.
Here, while Xu Chengzong was watching his servants work, a servant informed him that someone outside was asking for a meeting.
His son came back today. Xu Chengzong didn't want to see anyone, so he immediately arranged for his servants to send them away.
But when the servants took out the palace badges, Xu Chengzong's expression changed drastically. At that moment, he could only calm down and invite the people who wanted to see him.
He also went to the nave to wait.
Outside the Duke of Wei's mansion, there were five people standing, led by Wang Guo.
His Majesty the Emperor is preparing for a southern tour.
Officials with high status in Jiangnan need to take the lead in writing a letter to invite His Majesty to tour the south.
During the Chinese New Year, it was the time when wives and children were having a hot day, but Wang Yao and other errand workers from the East Factory rushed to Nanjing at high speed.
After entering the city, they did not dare to delay at all and went directly to the Wei Guogong Mansion...
