Chapter 415 The Dictionary Storm(1/2)
Therefore, Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang and others had just entered the library and had not yet walked around the library.
Outside the library, a huge commotion came.
At the same time, Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the waiter who had just had a very leisurely look, quickly stood up as if he was stolen by the enemy.
Extremely skillful in movement.
As soon as the man arrived at the door, his expression turned cold.
At the same time, everyone had already held a wooden stick with smooth yellow patina in their hands.
In an instant, the people outside the library became quiet.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang were stunned when they saw it.
"Hey, these guys' movements are more skillful than in the military camp."
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and cursed, ignored him and went straight to the counter.
"Cui Wenting, how many dictionaries have you sold now?"
"Back to the emperor, because it has just started selling dictionaries for less than half an hour, many people don't know. Therefore, more than 60 books have been sold!"
Cui Wenting said directly without hesitation.
"That's the point?"
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but frowned slightly, "How could he have sold such a small amount for such a long time? Can you sell all those dictionaries today?"
"Father, don't worry, you can sell more than 60 dictionaries in half an hour because before the dictionary was sold, the eldest brother and Zi'an did not promote or publish advertisements in the city, and many people didn't know.
Even these more than 60 books were sold by some scholars who came to the library every day.
Moreover, dictionaries are a treasure that can be compared with lives for literati all over the world. When the people who bought dictionaries go back, they will definitely call their friends.
For example, there are hundreds of people outside the library now.
And, in the distance, there are still a constant stream of people, and we will rush here again!"
Zhu Ren didn't know anything, but came behind the people and replied respectfully.
"I have met my father and elder brother. The dictionary is very easy to sell. Now those outside who want to come in and buy dictionary have been crowded with the streets for a long time!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly shocked.
He quickly walked to the window and looked around.
All the heads are filled with darkness.
"Hiss, when did these people come?
"When I go back to my father, I've all just arrived!"
Zhu Ceng replied.
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while.
Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao met.
A group of literati wearing Tang scarves, wearing silhouettes or lined clothes, or rich people wearing brocade clothes and long gowns all walked in from the door with a hurricane and orderly faced faces.
In the library, I picked up a dictionary, looked through a few pages carefully and roughly, and my face was full of joy.
Then, before he could take a closer look, he was pushed directly to the counter by the crowds of people rushing in from behind.
Take out ten taels of silver, enough to buy it after you finish it.
Then he was aborted again and crowded out of the door.
The whole process was crowded and smooth, and there was a trace of assembly lines in the workshop.
It is worry-free and pleasing to the eye.
"Father?Father..."
It felt like Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just watched for a while, had not seen enough, was called by Zhu Chuang beside him.
"Um?"
Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and looked at him, a little confused.
"Second, what's wrong?"
"Father, it's already noon now. Do you think you should go to the Zhenyi Restaurant or Yu Mansion opposite for lunch first?"
Zhu Chuang said quickly.
"It's noon?"
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly, and was immediately shocked.
"Father, it's really Li Wu!"
On the side, Zhu Biao also replied with a look of surprise.
"Cui Wenting, how many dictionaries are sold now?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.
"Return to the emperor, two thousand yuan of free books have been sold."
Cui Wenting glanced at the account book and said happily.
"So fast?" Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly surprised.
"Father, I guess these dictionaries will be sold out in more than an hour!"
Cui Wenting replied quickly.
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face became even more happy. Looking at the crowds outside, he asked again: "Is there a backlog of dictionaries in the printing workshop?"
Cui Wenting didn't know about this.
"When I go back to my father, there are only dictionaries printed today in the printing workshop. All the dictionaries printed before have been shipped!"
On the side, Zhu Biao replied quickly.
"It's still a bit slow!"
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed softly.
Is this slow?
Zhu Biao was a little amused and crying, "Father, the printing workshop, can now print more than 1,500 dictionaries a day!"
"So many? Why are there only five thousand..."
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang remembered that it took less than three days to print these dictionaries.
"Biao'er, this dictionary should be printed and sold to those people at a faster pace!"
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang walked outside.
To be honest, more than 1,500 dictionaries were printed a day, but something he never dared to think about before.
However, now that he knew the huge effect of the dictionary, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to print it in one day, which was enough for everyone in the world.
"Yes, Father!"
Behind him, Zhu Biao bowed and replied.
Then, he hurriedly chased after him.
Several people squeezed out of the entrance of the library and came to the fish mansion beside them.
Sitting in front of the large floor-to-ceiling glass in the private room on the fourth floor, looking at the entrance of the library below, those who were queuing up to buy dictionaries, Zhu Yuanzhang was filled with relief.
With so many dictionaries sold, at least a large number of literati can be created next year, right?
At that time, I don’t have to force those literati to become officials!
...
really.
Zhu Ceng's guess is correct.
Zhu Yuanzhang and his friends finished their lunch, but they had not yet gone down.
I saw that the dictionary sign hanging at the entrance of the library below was turned to the opposite side by the waiter in the desperate eyes of those waiting in line.
The dictionary has been sold out today and will be on sale tomorrow!
Seeing this, the crowd slowly dispersed after a moment of stirring.
"The Emperor, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the Second Highness, today's 5,200 dictionaries were sold out in just two hours, and they received 52,000 taels of silver!"
Cui Wenting reported to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao and Zhu Chuang with joy on his face.
"Okay, we're not mistaken for you!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was full of joy.
