It can be said that this tea has a great reputation before it comes out.
There's no way. The people in the palace respect it, and the people outside will follow suit. What's more, the tea life is really good.
Some people who get tea want to buy the new tea.
Zhang Yu watched all this quietly in his yard.
Guo Jia came in and said to Zhang Yu with a smile, "my Lord, our plan is successful. Is the book ready for sale?"
Zhang Yu's fingers tapped on the table and said, "well, it will be on sale tomorrow afternoon. In the morning, we will release the news first."
Guo Jia sat at the bottom of Zhang Yu's head, touched his chin moustache and said, "Lord, when our shop begins to sell books, it will surprise those aristocratic families. They are caught off guard. I don't know how much the Lord plans to sell books for?"
Zhang Yu said with a sneer: "three days ago, we paid our guests a thousand dollars for each book."
After the large-scale production of books, the price is very cheap. It takes a year to make a bamboo slip, and it costs tens of thousands of money.
At this time, the price of the paper books sold by Zhang Yu was directly one tenth of that of bamboo slips, and it was easy to carry and keep.
We all know that bamboo slips will soon be replaced by paper books.
Guo Jia asked again, "how much is the master going to sell in three days?"
Zhang Yu said triumphantly: "three days later, one book will sell for 100 yuan."
"Poof."
Guo Jia burst out laughing on the spot.
Three days later, one hundred yuan.
"Lord, you are going to pit those aristocratic families." Guo Jia said with a smile.
"They have money. They don't want to pit anyone." Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Yu's idea is very simple. These aristocratic families have money and want to control knowledge. When cheap books appear, they will surely think of buying them all, so that others can't buy them and monopolize them.
In order to monopolize knowledge, these aristocratic families will go crazy.
So Zhang Yu deliberately sold the price so high.
A thousand dollars is ten times more expensive than a hundred dollars. I don't know how many aristocratic families will vomit blood at that time.
Zhang Yu doesn't care. In the morning, the assistant arranged by Zhang Yu enters the shop and starts to prepare. There are ten soldiers with weapons at the door.
And more than a dozen shops have long been surrounded by people. They are all servants of the aristocratic family, waiting to open the door to go shopping.
By noon, the shop was still not open, but it was full of people outside.
After an hour, the door finally opened, and more than a dozen stores opened together.
Zhang Yu's shop finally shows its true colors.
"Shopkeeper, how do you sell tea?"
"Is there any fairy wine to sell here?"
"Shopkeeper, we want all the tea from the Li family."
"Get out of the way. I'm from Zhangjia."
As soon as they opened the door, the housekeepers, who were afraid they couldn't finish the work, began to rush in and yell for something to buy.
But the men who wanted to rush in were stopped by several soldiers.
"Why don't you let me in? Our master is still waiting."
"Get out of the way. Don't delay our master's tea."
"Hey, is this business done or not?"
The men were stopped and began to grumble.
At this time, the shopkeeper came out from inside and pressed his hands to make the scene quiet.
"Our store is open today. All the books are paper books. We have more than 30 classics, such as the Analects of Confucius, spring and autumn, the book of changes, Mencius, and so on. There will be more books in the future."
"We have just opened our shop. We have paid guests for three days. Each book costs only a thousand dollars. If you want to buy it, you should hurry up. After these three days, it's not the same price."
Almost at the same time, more than a dozen shopkeepers came out at the same time to show you a paper book.
"It's not tea. We only want tea."
"And tea?"
"How can I explain it to the owner when I go back?"
"After that, go to other stores to see if they sell tea."
"Go, go, go."
When the shopkeeper's product turned out to be a book instead of a tea, it suddenly exploded for everyone.
They are all ordered to do things. If they don't do things well, it's hard to explain when they go back.
A group of people were noisy and scolded these stores, but they had to hurry to other stores.
When they ran around and found that all the shops didn't sell tea at all, they found that the matter was very serious.
So a group of people rushed back to report.
Yuan Fu.
"Uncle, uncle." Yuan Shao shouts as he runs.
Yuan Kai was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard making tea and studying the new tea.
Yuan Kai knew that yuan shaosu was stable. Today, he was so flustered that something must have happened. However, Yuan Kai knew that he could not be flustered.
"Don't worry, speak slowly." Yuan Kai still sat and said.
Seeing that Yuan Kai was so calm, Yuan Shao slowed down. Then he said to Yuan Kai, "uncle, Zhang Yu's more than ten shops don't sell tea at all. We are all cheated by his tricks."
After hearing this, Yuan Kai shook his hand. Knowing that Zhang Yu had made such a big detour, he was sure to have a big plan. So he asked, "what are you selling?"
"Books, paper books."
"Bang ~"
Yuan Kai didn't hold the cup firmly and it fell to the ground.
Yuan Kai breathes heavily and knows that Zhang Yu has played a trick on him this time.
"What's the price? What's the quantity? " Yuan Kai tried his best to calm down and asked for something very important.
"Each classic costs 1000 yuan. As for the quantity, it should be quite a lot. If Zhang Yu's team is carrying at least 100000 books this time, his nephew has ordered people to buy them, and he will buy some back soon." Yuan Shao said what he knew.
Yuan Kai closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Damn it, this time he was completely fooled by Zhang Yu. What he sold turned out to be books. This is revenge, revenge." Yuan Kai said angrily.
"Uncle, generally, a volume of books costs more than 10000 yuan. This chapter is so cheap and the quantity is huge. I'm afraid that books will be popular by then." Yuan Shao said.
"Don't worry, the mud legs can't afford to read a book for a thousand dollars. It's just that some small aristocratic families can only rely on us. If they have their own books, they will gradually get rid of our dependence and develop after a generation or two."
Many small families still can't afford to buy books, or they can only buy a small number of books. In this way, they have to rely on the big family to send their children to the private school of the big family to study. But if they have a large number of books, they may not need these big families at that time.
"Uncle, what shall we do?" Yuan Shao asked.
"Mobilize all the great families to buy the books in Zhang Yu's hands, and then try to control or destroy Zhang Yu's technology of making books, so as to prevent the large-scale emergence of books." Yuan Kai said coldly.
