Chapter 750 The article in 'Chang'an Collected Works' Even His Royal Highness
Chapter 750 Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cannot stand the articles in "Chang'an Collected Works" (please subscribe and vote)
"Chang'an Xunbao" once again sold for three consecutive days, with 100,000 copies on the first day, 60,000 copies on the second and third days.
This time, the Wei Palace consumed more than 35,000 portions, and almost 100,000 portions fell into the hands of money-minded traders.
Chang'an City digested and absorbed the rest, and what's more, some storytellers who had previously given secular lectures to the Buddhist temple.
I picked up the Chang'an Xunbao and started to talk about "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in a restaurant.
"Chang'an Collected Works" finally made its grand debut under the expectation of Wei King Li Tai and a group of aristocratic families.
In order to encourage Wei Wang Li Tai, the main creator of "Chang'an Collected Works", the wealthy families in Chang'an extended their hands.
Three to five copies and eight to ten copies were purchased, but it was also in Chang'an City. After the "Chang'an Xun Bao" was published, there was also a rush to buy.
However, except for some scholars who like to study hard and specialize in knowledge, most of the literate merchants and ordinary people in Chang'an are ordinary people.
I am very lacking in enthusiasm for this "Chang'an Collected Works", especially when I read through the entire article, it seems that it is all about esoteric articles specializing in knowledge.
After touching the coins in their pockets, most people chose to give up instead of spending five cents to buy "Chang'an Collected Works" that they couldn't read.
It's better to keep the money and look forward to the next issue of the wonderful "Chang'an Xunbao". Reading that thing can satisfy your eyes at least, which is much better than this dizzying "Chang'an Collected Works".

Cheng Chubi, who was bragging and spanking with a group of brothers, heard the message from the eunuch who came to look for him.
I could only say hello to a group of Zuo Nei rate elites and then go to the side hall of Li Zheng Hall.
When they entered the side hall, they saw Li Chengqian sitting there bored. After looking at Cheng Chubi, he waved and smiled.
"Brother Chu Bi, you can make it easy for me to find you."
"Your Highness has something to do, please give me your instructions."
"Gu Ke heard that today is the day when "Chang'an Collected Works" will be released on the market, so he specially sent someone to buy a few copies of "Chang'an Collected Works". Let's take a good look at it later."
After hearing this, Cheng Chubi, who had completely forgotten about this matter, burst into laughter and praised His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Your Highness did the right thing. As the saying goes, if you know the enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. Your Highness has thought this through more than I do."
"That's not because you, Brother Chubi, don't regard my fourth brother as an opponent at all." Li Chengqian laughed and shook his head.
Not long after the meeting, Ning Zhong hurried back to the side hall of Lizheng Hall holding several copies of "Chang'an Collected Works".
It was just that after Cheng Chubi copied the "Chang'an Collected Works" and glanced at it for a few times, he felt that his whole body was not good.
What the hell is this thing about? It feels like those people created articles specifically for this after reading the Four Books and Five Classics.
The article quoted scriptures from time to time, which made Cheng Chubi more and more confused. Finally, after scribbling for a long time, Cheng Chubi read it.
As a heirloom of poetry and calligraphy, Cheng Chubi, the cultural director of the old Cheng family, had to give up trying because his classical Chinese skills were too shallow.
Well, this is just like testing the poison of a new book. It poisoned Cheng Chubi so much that his eyes almost turned green.
Cheng Chubi then threw down the newspaper, turned to look at Li Chengqian, and saw this undressed and fleshy pork rib prince sweating all over.
He couldn't help but crane his neck to look over, and then looked at Li Chengqian's expression. Well... Cheng Chubi's mouth almost reached his back molars.
Apparently, it was not just me, the cultural leader of the Cheng family, who had such dyslexia, but even His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty couldn't stand it.
This immediately made Cheng Chubi feel a lot better. It was not his own problem, it was the problem of "Chang'an Collected Works".
"Ah, this... the articles in "Chang'an Collected Works" are indeed extremely sophisticated and profound. In fact, well, there are some..."
Li Chengqian bit the bullet and tried hard to understand the profound meaning contained in those words, but the more he read, the more difficult it became. Li Chengqian couldn't help but frown and stammered at a loss for words.
I have completely given up on the trial reading, and my whole mind is as peaceful as if Cheng Chubi, who always comes in last place, is just happy.
"Whether it's subtle or not, I can't understand it anyway, but if I'm bored one day.
But when you want to sleep but can't, you can use it to help you sleep."
"...Brother Chu Bi is really honest." Li Chengqian laughed and laughed and threw aside the "Chang'an Collected Works" in his hand.
The articles in the "Chang'an Collected Works" are so taxing to read that it makes Li Chengqian, who considers himself a man of culture, doubtful about his life.
To see this thing, you need to not only read the Four Books and Five Classics thoroughly, but you also need to be able to study the Four Books and Five Classics to a certain height.
Cheng Chubi looked at these articles that were too profound with some disgust, and felt extremely relaxed inside.
"Such highbrow stuff poses no threat to our "Chang'an Xun Bao"."
Li Chengqian nodded, but still gave his own evaluation.
"But articles like this will definitely be sought after and read by knowledgeable people."
"Your Highness is right. After all, the audiences are different. The audience of our "Chang'an Xun Bao" is a broad range of people.
And this "Chang'an Collected Works" is more aimed at those erudite scholars who work hard and specialize in academic studies."
"It is for this reason that, in Yi Gu's opinion, if this collection of essays can sell ten thousand copies in Chang'an, I am afraid it will be a blessing."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, there will still be people who will support King Wei's "Chang'an Collected Works", especially those people. Even if one copy cannot be sold, there will be people who will put their hands on it..."
After hearing Cheng Chubi's pointed words, Li Chengqian's face darkened slightly, and he nodded slightly and remained silent.

Time passed bit by bit, but Wei King Li Tai felt anxious in his heart. Even the lard cake that he usually found most tempting no longer tasted good at this moment.
The sales volume of "Chang'an Collected Works" involves not only the issue of money, but also the face of His Highness, the King of Wei, who is famous for his talent in the world.
There is also the face of the learned men and scholars who serve under his command.
After all, for this second issue of "Chang'an Collected Works", these talented and learned scholars have spent a lot of money and worked hard to write good articles.
If you can't even sell 60,000 copies, then you're not blushing, but feeling hurt.
Not only Li Tai, King of Wei, was anxious, but the learned men and scholars whose articles were printed in the "Chang'an Collected Works" were also uneasy.
Today they all found various excuses to be late or leave early after leaving the government office. Or they even took Yi Guan's clothes and dressed up as ordinary people to enter restaurants and tea shops.
Or he rode away on horseback, hiding in the car, and furtively observing the sales of "Chang'an Collected Works".
