The news that Yan Shigu transported the ancient books to the Shengtang Group and printed them soon spread throughout Chang'an.
Everyone praised it endlessly!
No one can do it like Li Min. Some people have pre-ordered it directly. Once those books come out, the sales will definitely be good!
Wang family
Changsun Wuji was drinking tea leisurely.
Wang Yang was extremely anxious.
He kept cursing in his mouth.
"Changsun Wuji, what are you doing? It's been five days now and not a single book has been printed! I'm not taking you in as a freeloader! You want to do something! You can't print a single book. What are you doing?
food?"
Then he couldn't say enough, and said: "Look at the Shengtang Group. It has been out of the Three Kingdoms for twenty times, and the money it makes is just like running water, and we have spent millions just on investment."
two!"
The envy in his eyes! In the past, printing books was in the hands of aristocratic families! Now everything has changed, making them anxious.
It cost a lot of money just to recruit the masters.
There are also some people who have been recruited, and they want to make engravings and so on.
But now many days have passed, and the Wang family has not made anything.
How could they not be anxious?
Changsun Wuji was still not in a hurry.
Under pressure from Wang Yang, he was not anxious at all.
"I heard that Li Shimin wanted to hand over the ancient books to that guy for printing! He also guaranteed that the first batch of books would be printed within ten days!"
"So what? That has nothing to do with us!"
"It has nothing to do with it? No, no, no, it matters a lot!"
Wang Yang walked to Changsun Wuji.
"What's the big deal?"
"Think about it, how many can he print in one day? And I also heard that he will sell this book at a low price. Then, we will eat as much as he can print! I think he still has free time.
Why are we going to print more Three Kingdoms? Besides, Li Shimin values this batch of books very much. If we buy out the books, won’t the imperial court get a large amount of books? Will Li Shimin blame him?"
Changsun Wuji said this, and Wang Yang felt the same.
"But we haven't been able to pick up the speed. That's a big deal. You have to find a way, right? Seeing you drinking tea here every day makes me very anxious."
"What's the rush! No rush, no rush!"
Changsun Wuji expressed.
Wang Yang didn't take it seriously.
This is not urgent, so why is it urgent?
"I don't care, the first edition must be published tomorrow, otherwise we will all lose money!"
Wang Yang was a little eager for success.
"Well, that thing is almost here. Let's proofread it and print some out the day after tomorrow."
"What?"
"Typography!"
As soon as Changsun Wuji said this, Wang Yang was immediately shocked.
"Did you really get this printing press?"
"That's not easy. There is nothing in this world that I can't do! Just wait and see the good show!"
"Okay, I hope you won't disappoint me this time!"
…
As for the Shengtang Group at this time.
Everyone performed their duties. Su Mei wrote a book and taught the girls in the group to follow suit.
Yan Shigu was in charge of the printing plant and also the control over the writing of male videos.
And the printing of ancient books also started.
In the front hall.
Ji Ruxue said from the side: "Mr. Zili, according to our calculations, in the entire Chang'an City, our Shengtang Group's paper has occupied more than 99% of the market. Except for some special papers, we basically occupy
It’s the market here and radiating to the surrounding areas!”
Recently, good news has also come from paper mills.
A large amount of paper was produced, part of it was bought by Li Shimin, another part was kept by himself, and the last part was supplied to the market.
These cheap papers bring many conveniences to the people.
Li Min was not idle either, and invented toilet paper, dinner paper and other types of paper.
Enriching the categories of people’s daily necessities.
The price was not high, but the sales volume was very high. These daily sales products later became necessities and played a great role.
Next, he will make cartons, cardboard and other things. He will be involved in all paper-related industries. He will carry forward this industry.
In addition, the tenement buildings were slowly put into use from bottom to top, and more and more people moved inside.
"Over the Cui family, you have to take deep control. If necessary, directly merge them into the Shengtang Group! From now on, there will be no Cui family in Chang'an! If possible, you can even extend to places outside Chang'an to give them some sweetness, and
Take over their business! As for the Zheng family and the Lu family, we can slowly assimilate them!"
Now among the five major families in Chang'an City, only the Li and Wang families are left.
As for the aristocratic families in the entire Tang Dynasty, the five major aristocratic families are still king.
However, it won't be long before the Shengtang Group will definitely annex them.
"clear!"
In Li Min's opinion, the world will belong to one family, and that can only be the Shengtang Group.
"One more thing, is there any news about Wang Jiayin's novel?"
"By the way, speaking of this, Yuan Tiangang just caught a person and asked me to talk to you. Do you want to take a look?"
"What? Let me think about it!"
Li Min immediately started searching in the browser.
This search made him laugh.
Because that person is the one who spread his movable type printing.
It was passed down to Changsun Wuji.
This Changsun Wuji really has no end.
"No need to meet, let Yuan Tiangang handle it by himself!"
"yes!"
"One more thing, regarding the reduction of floor paper, we can control the production in the past few days and tighten the market supply! If you encounter large purchases, tell the people below that they will not be sold!"
Ji Ruxue didn't understand what it meant.
"Mr. Zili, if this happens, won't we make no money?"
“How much money can you make from paper?”
Ji Ruxue was puzzled.
Li Min could only say: "It is a weapon!"
"arms?"
"Yes, you will know later!"
Ji Ruxue was still puzzled. Li Min didn't say anything, so she stopped asking.
Two days later, a large number of ancient books appeared outside the Shengtang Group.
Li Shimin expressed great shock. He thought it was impossible for Li Min to do it so quickly, but he was wrong, he was just that fast.
Not only that, the price of the ancient book was only one-tenth of the current price. It was like a bomb that exploded, causing huge waves.
Take "The Analects of Confucius" as an example. The full text is 15,900 words. A block-printed version of the Analects costs one tael. At this time, the price of rice was only six cents per catty. How could children from poor families afford to read?
What Li Min and the others did completely subverted traditional printing, and of course, lowered the price of paper.
He greatly reduced the price of books. The price of a copy of "The Analects of Confucius" was only 100 liters, which was a full 900 liters cheaper than the current price.
Such low prices caused a frantic buying spree among the people in Chang'an City, and some books were directly sold into the market for free, allowing some scholars without money to afford books.
The aristocratic families who monopolized education fell into panic.
Especially the Wang family is worried now.
A huge storm is brewing in the peaceful city of Chang'an...
