Chapter two hundred and eighty fourth not sold advertising first
The strong ink fragrance and the strong but slightly yellowed paper make a quaint feeling vividly appear on the paper. The cover of the book is not as monochrome as before, but is sealed with the famous scene of burning Red Cliffs. The four large characters of Romance of the Three Kingdoms are written very vigorously. It is very good to see Uncle Li's calligraphy practice.
Opening the cover, it is the preface written by Uncle Li's Uncle Li's body: "Recently, I read it in "The Three Kingdoms" and see that it is actually pointed out, which is not a fabrication. From this, it is strange and not surprising than the Three Kingdoms! Some say: Anyone who comes from Zhou Tai, from Han and Tang dynasties, and according to the historical legends is similar to the Three Kingdoms. Why are they strange but strange to the Three Kingdoms? It says: The Three Kingdoms are a great wonder of the ancient and modern battles against the sky... I often read the situation of the Three Kingdoms fighting for the world, and sigh that the changes in the fortunes of heaven are really unpredictable! I have a failed Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo abolished power, and the heroes rose up together, and the world is full of thriving... and in the Jianduan, I can read the people who come to the future..."
Uncle Li's preface is very accurate, and it seems that his literary talent is also good. I think even if he doesn't become an emperor and becomes a literary critic, he can still make a place.
This book is printed twice in many places, such as this cover, which is to first print the picture of the burning Red Cliff, and then transfer the words of Uncle Li again.
On the Yixiang Pavilion, Li Ke was still wearing a white silk shirt, Li Shu was wearing a light gauze floral skirt, and they were sitting cross-legged on the couch with me. Li Zhi and Li Shen were now continuing their homework in the palace and had no way to follow.
The wine and food have not yet been brought, and there is only a small fragrance of tea on the table. Li Ke is holding the newly printed "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Such an exquisite booklet made Li Ke, who had seen the book for the first time, amazed: "Brother Jun, your thoughts are hard to reach for ordinary people. Just this cover makes me love my brother. Yan Langzhong's paintings are worthy of being a masterpiece in the world."
"Ho ho, I don't know how much verbal effort I have flown to make Brother Yan surrender." He was very complacent, but he still maintained the necessary modesty.
Li Shu smiled and looked at the brand new book in his hand. Anyone could see the joy between his eyebrows. It was really a beautiful thing to occasionally look across his eyes and hook him up with his eyes.
Li Ke was busy appreciating the booklets, but he didn't have time to pay attention to us. After a while, Li Ke rummaged over and put the booklets on the table, and said, "Yes, Yan Liben and Yan Lide brothers are all famous painters in our dynasty. They can draw more than 200 inserts for Jun Ge'er's booklets. Now the whole of Chang'an has been circulated in the name of the Three Kingdoms, and they all regret not being able to witness them."—
I smiled faintly and felt even more proud. Nonsense. This rumor was released. Now, let alone Chang'an, even the surrounding prefectures have heard of the name of this book. Think about it, Fang Jun, a famous Tang Dynasty scholar who was able to be ranked fourth in the rank of the Tang Dynasty at a young age, wrote it. His Majesty the Emperor personally wrote the preface, Yan Dahua made the insert, and then there was a comment from the Prime Minister Fang. It was difficult to not be popular. Besides, hype, this is the way to hype. It is advertising first and make people angry first. Anyway, only hearing the sound but not seeing the person can add suspense. One inquiry once, and it is spread more and more widely. Therefore, after I printed the book, I kept pressing it without moving, because it is not the best time for the new book to be released.
At this moment, the wine and food have been put on the table, so I drank a few drinks first. "Brother Jun, I ask you why you always smile without saying anything. Don't forget, I have shares in this press library. As the owner, I have to ask, what do you want to do?"
"Actually, I really have the intention of waiting for a price. Of course, it is not for money." I put this out with a righteous heart. Now, just talking about the papermaking workshop, not to mention the paper used in Chang'an City, those Hu merchants alone have swallowed up nearly 30% of the papermaking workshops, and specially sold them to Tubo, the Western Regions and even further away foreign countries. Now, under the operation of Li Ke and these prominent shareholders, several nearby governments have built papermaking workshops with the same craftsmanship. The dividends of the papermaking workshop alone have made those wealthy families in Chang'an jealous.
"Oh? Since it's not for money, what do you mean?" Li Ke poured another glass of wine and stared at me intently.
"Don't worry, brother, I have something to ask for my elder brother now, and I hope my elder brother will agree first." There must be a purpose for treating someone to dinner, and my purpose is really for "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
"Oh? It's amazing. With your name as Fang Yiai, who doesn't sell you a little bit of thin air in Chang'an City, I found you brother today. Hoho ho, it must be a difficult task!" Li Ke raised his finger and pointed at me with a smirk.
I laughed strangely and approached: "It's actually not difficult, but you must take action by brother."
"Oh? Why?" Li Ke said with his eyes blinking, and Li Shu stopped raising the chopsticks and listened intently.
"Common sayings?!" Li Ke was stunned.
"That's right, I know that this is a bit difficult, so I'd like to help Brother De." He raised his glass to Li Ke and took a sip.
"What I said is different from others. It is a special talk about the folk things in the folk novels, not involved in Buddhism, and not sing the music of drums and music. Just a long case is all based on the ability of a mouth, so it is different from those common sayings, also called storytelling. For example, in my "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", each chapter is a lecture, one or two hours, dedicated to taverns and teahouses, which can be enjoyed and allowed..."
Brother Li Ke, a romantic playboy prince, has a wide range of interactions in Chang'an, and almost all the well-known pavilions in Chang'an are familiar with each other. I just want to use this method to spread our "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" more widely. It is not only preserved in the book, but also familiar to people, but also laying a solid foundation for the future publication and circulation of my works.
"Hahaha, I knew that Brother Jun had indeed left behind. I didn't expect that there would be a wonderful plan every time, tea and wine, listen to the Three Kingdoms, and gather people to enjoy it. This method is wonderful, good! I will help you with this busy brother!" Li Ke laughed loudly.
"So, I'm grateful. Come on, I'll have a drink in my position!"
"Dry!" Bang, I drank the white wine at more than 40 degrees in one sip. It was so refreshing that my whole body was slanted. I whispered my eyebrows for a long time before I came back.
Li Shu clapped his hands happily when he heard this: "Brother Jun is right, no wonder. When I talked about "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in the past, I felt that it was more interesting than reading books by myself. If I could help me with tea and listen to books, it would be a beautiful thing."
"Hehe, that's natural. This is because I've been living for a long time and thought about the way I get. If I can't stand the table, how can I tell you clearly?" He raised his eyebrows proudly, threw a piece of braised mutton into his mouth, and chewed it beautifully.
Li Ke shook his head and said, "That's natural, ordinary things, how can I catch my eyes? Hahaha..."
"Brother Wei De is a famous scholar of the Tang Dynasty. He has an independent vision. Except for brothers, he should not think of others..." When he was drunk, flattery came out like a tide. Li Ke smiled and was humble. By the way, he also praised me for being a good comrade who is very wise. Li Shu could endure it at first, but in the end he simply laughed so hard that he fell.
I didn't have time to pay attention to this girl, and continued to brag, bragging whatever she caught, and the warm atmosphere was also very harmonious. At the back, it was all Li Ke who was bragging alone. I responded silently, and slapped her hands together under the desk table. I said a few words of teasing from time to time, which made the little girl angry. Anyway, Li Ke had already started to drink and get sick, so I just pretended that this guy didn't exist.
Before leaving, he stuffed more than ten hardcover versions of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to Li Ke who threw the horse on his back, and asked him to give it to him as a gift when the prince woke up. Li Shu got a book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" signed by this young master. Hehe, look at the joyful look of this beautiful girl, and I wish I could bite it on it at once.
Sure enough, Brother Li Ke did not make any mistakes. Ten days later, there were more than ten famous wine halls in Chang'an City. Most of them were famous speakers who were originally famous to the temples. They opened their mouths but said a strange book. First, they beat the auspicious wood and folding fans. Yes, you read that right. How could this folding fan be missing as a storyteller? Then the storyteller opened his mouth and said, "When talking about the general trend of the world, it will be together for a long time, and it will be together for a long time. The disputes between the seven kingdoms over the weekend were merged into Qin. After the Qin destruction, Chu and Han divided the disputes... led to chaos.
