In the past, the fighting between the various battalions of the Dragon Guard was usually fought over the kiln sister in the kiln, but this time it was during training. This made Li Qi very happy. He hoped that this atmosphere could be maintained forever.
.
Standing in the distance and seeing the cheering soldiers in the camp, Zhong Shidao smiled happily, turned to Zhao Jingyan and said: "Yan'er, it's a good thing you invited me to come to the capital, otherwise I wouldn't have met this interesting boy.
"
Zhao Jingyan smiled and said nothing.
Master Zhong took a deep breath and said, "Let's go."
The two rode away on horseback.
...
After the drill, the soldiers returned to camp. Li Qi did not go back with them. He explained some things and went back to Qin Mansion with Ma Qiao.
On the way, Li Qi became more and more aware of the importance of riding a horse, so he asked Ma Qiao about the skills of riding a horse, but the guy didn't understand.
.
But it's no wonder, Ma Qiao is a self-taught person. With his incredible agility, strength, and the violent blood hidden in his bones, let alone horses, even tigers can only be ridden by him.
As for asking him to teach others to ride horses, that is really difficult. His only advantage is that he can give people a sense of security.
Back at the Qin Mansion, as soon as Li Qi entered the door, Aunt Chen, who opened the door for him, said, "Master Li, you are finally back. Bachelor Zhang, Mrs. Bai, and Yuanwai Zhou are all here, and they are all waiting for you in the front hall now."
"Yeah?"
Li Qi frowned and said to himself: "It seems that today is destined to be a busy day, oh no. It should be a month." When he said this, he looked slightly tired.
When they came to the front hall, they saw Mrs. Qin, Zhang Zeduan, White Snake, and Zhou Qing sitting in their seats chatting. When they saw Li Qi coming in, they hurriedly stood up to say hello.
Li Qi returned the greetings one by one and said with a smile: "You guys come together, I wonder if there is any happy event?"
Zhou Qing said hurriedly: "Actually, I met Academician Zhang, we didn't make an appointment to come together." He felt like sitting on pins and needles sitting here. A businessman was sitting with Zhang Zeduan, White Snake, Mrs. Qin and other famous families.
I have to say, this is really a kind of torture, because you know, they don’t understand, they understand. You don’t understand. He sat there all afternoon, barely opening his mouth, just listening to the three of them talking about poetry.
Songs.
Mrs. Qin reached out to Zhang Zeduan and said with a smile: "Li Qi, Bachelor Zhang is here to deliver books to you."
"Oh? Really." Li Qi looked happy and said to Zhang Zeduan: "Scholar Zhang, just finish the painting?"
Zhang Zeduan smiled and nodded and said: "I don't dare to neglect what the official Yan envoy told me, and I just painted some colors on it. It won't take long." After saying that, he picked up the ten books on the coffee table next to him and gave them to Li Qi.
Sent it over.
But I saw that the covers of the more than ten books were made of hard material and were bright red, with the four characters Romance of the Three Kingdoms written on them.
This is the gold version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Zhang Zeduan said with a hint of uneasiness: "Shi Guanyan, please take a quick look and see if it works."
Li Qi chuckled and said: "This product is produced by Bachelor Zhang. It must be a high-quality product. You don't need to read it to know it." After all, he opened the top book and saw that the picture on the first page was exactly the third chapter of the Three Kingdoms.
A military commander. Lu Bu.
Holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, with a red rabbit on his crotch, he is full of heroic spirit. There is also written on the side: "Lu Bu among men, red rabbit among horses."
This painting was painted by Li Qi imitating the pictures in the Three Kingdoms game of later generations. Every stroke has a strong comic style. However, since he did not know how to use a brush, he could only ask Zhang Zeduan to help him color it.
Li Qi nodded with satisfaction and looked through the others. Each book had an illustration. In addition to Lu Bu, there were also the Five Tiger Generals of Shu, Zhuge, Guo Jia, Zhou Yu, Xiao Qiao, Diao Chan, etc.
Portraits of characters that readers like.
Zhang Zeduan asked: "Shi Guanyan, what do you think?"
Li Qi was slightly startled and said: "Very good, very good. Thank you for your hard work, Bachelor Zhang."
"Where, where." Zhang Zeduan rubbed his hands and said shyly: "Actually--actually, I have one more thing to ask for this time."
Li Qi asked in astonishment: "What's the matter?"
Bai Qiannuo chuckled and said, "Brother, there's no need to ask, I already know it. Uncle Zhang definitely wants you to teach him how to draw this comic."
Zhang Zeduan nodded and smiled: "Qiniang, I really can't hide anything from you."
Li Qi's face was stunned, slightly confused: "This---."
Zhang Zeduan said hurriedly: "Did I cause you any trouble?"
"Of course not." Li Qi scratched his head and thought to himself, I'm afraid you don't even dare to draw cleavage, how can you learn such exaggerated comics. He said: "Bachelor Zhang, sketching can be said to be the basis of comics. I think you
The first priority is to practice sketching well, and then I will teach you comics."
When Zhang Zeduan saw that Li Qi did not reject him, he immediately became happy and nodded: "What Guan Yan said is that I am too ambitious. I will work hard to learn sketching."
Don't, you have worked hard enough and your talent is so high. I believe that I won't be able to teach you for a while. Then what will I use to fool you? Li Qi smiled, nodded slightly, and said to Zhou Qing
: "Executive member Zhou, why are you here this time?"
Zhou Qing was slightly startled and said hurriedly: "Master Li, I came here to tell you that everything is ready at my silk and satin shop, and those few clothes will be finished tonight."
Li Qi nodded and said, "I understand. As for sales, you can just leave it to us."
Zhou Qing nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you so much, Master Li."
"We are partners, so these polite words are unnecessary." Li Qi waved his hand and said with a smile.
Bai Qiannuo asked: "Brother, do you plan to launch the Romance of the Three Kingdoms first, or this new style of clothing?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Of course we will launch it together. I plan to hold a poker buying conference."
"Buying poker conference?"
The other four people shouted in unison.
The more Mrs. Qin listened, the more confused she became, and she wondered: "Li Qi, are you planning to hold a poker-buying convention?"
This buying and selling conference is similar to the auction in later generations.
Li Qi smiled and said: "Exactly, I almost forgot to tell you. I plan to hold a shopping convention in Zuixianju in two days to promote the gold version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the new clothes of the Zhou Family Silk and Satin Shop.
"
Bai Qiannuo first muttered: "Buying tournament? Romance of the Three Kingdoms? New clothes?" Then he asked Li Qi: "Brother, what is the connection between these three? And, brother, what momentum are you planning to create?"
Li Qi chuckled and explained: "First of all, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is now famous. Everyone in the capital knows about it. And everyone is waiting for the second volume of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Why don't we borrow this point to help the Zhou family
Promote the new clothes---.”
Bai Qiannuo frowned and said, "That's true, but how can books and clothes be connected? And what's the point of this shopping conference?"
Qin, Zhang, and Zhou Zhou all nodded, agreeing with Bai Qiannuo's words, and at the same time gave Li Qi two questioning looks.
Li Qi smiled slightly, picked up a book of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and said: "Everyone, there are very few Romance of the Three Kingdoms nowadays, but these few Romance of the Three Kingdoms all have the calligraphy of Zhang Dajun, so they are very few, and can even be said to be
Unique---."
Zhang Zeduan interjected: "The official Yan Envoy must not say that, I just contributed a little bit."
Li Qi raised his hand and said: "Master Zhang, please don't say that from now on. This is what you drew. It has nothing to do with me."
Zhang Zeduan groaned and said, "But---?"
Li Qi interrupted him and said, "It's nothing but. I said you drew it, so you drew it. I also asked Bachelor Zhang to help me."
Zhang Zeduan could not help but be stunned when he saw that Li Qi said so confidently, but he did not dare to offend him in case he would not teach him how to draw. He nodded, but his eyes were full of confusion.
Bai Qiannuo suddenly asked: "Brother, do you mean to take these Romance of the Three Kingdoms and sell them at a shopping mall?"
"Clever." Li Qi snapped his fingers and said: "Every painting here is unique in terms of conception and style. No one in the world has ever seen it, and it is also the calligraphy of Bachelor Zhang.
, then everyone will definitely rush to buy it, and the one with the highest price will get it, so it can be fair and just."
What is fairness and justice? You just want to make more money.
The three of them frowned and glanced at Li Qi. Mrs. Qin said slightly dissatisfied: "Li Qi, I heard Qiniang say that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not profitable at all, but we have already made enough, so why do you have to be so mysterious?
What kind of gambling convention are we going to hold?”
Sweating! I was misunderstood again. Li Qi shook his head and said: "Madam is surprised by what she said. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is just a cover. With the reputation of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there is no need to do any publicity at all. As soon as the book is released, it can be done in one day.
Sold out, in fact, my real purpose is the new clothes." After a pause, he turned to Zhou Qing and said: "Zhou Yuanwai, you can tell me about this."
Zhou Qing nodded and said: "Mrs. Qin, in fact, a few days ago, Master Li asked me to make special clothes for a few days. The embroidery on these clothes is just like the paintings in this book. They are all
Characters in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms." At this point, he turned to Li Qi and said: "Master Li, I only know so much, it's up to you to tell me."
Li Qi hummed, and then said: "I combined the Romance of the Three Kingdoms with those new clothes, and used the Romance of the Three Kingdoms to build momentum for the new clothes. The clothes Zhou Yuanwai brought are also unique in the world. I plan to do it then
First auction those copies of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and then auction those pieces of clothing embroidered with characters from the Three Kingdoms. Customers will definitely be vying to buy them, and those who buy will definitely advertise that they have a piece of clothing from Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In less than two days
, this new style of clothing will be spread throughout the city, and by then we will launch this new style of clothing, and the effect will naturally be self-evident. Oh, and one more thing, I also plan to cooperate with Qiniang’s foundation
, all the money from this auction will be donated to the charity foundation.”
Bai Qiannuo said hurriedly: "Brother, you are so kind."
Mrs. Qin finally understood now and said with a smile: "Qiniang, don't let him deceive you. He is just doing this to gain a good reputation."
Bai Qiannuo said with a smile: "Sister Wang, my eldest brother will not lie to me. By doing this, he can not only do good deeds, but also gain fame, and he can also promote new clothes to create momentum. This kills three birds with one stone, why not do it."
"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Qiniang understands justice well, I really admire you, I admire you."
Mrs. Qin rolled her eyes at him and said, "She should understand the interests."
Li Qi laughed and said: "This is the best, this is the best, since righteousness cannot be eaten as food anyway."
