Chapter 62 Excited Li Shimin
...
"Your Highness, this is not how you settle the score!"
Although he was a little worried about Li Chengqian being so obsessed with money now, Li Gang still patiently told him.
"Teacher, I remember that the money I used to print these books was less than two thousand guan!"
Li Chengqian was a little confused.
"But your Highness, you have not included the wages of the shopkeepers and shopkeepers in the library. In addition, you have not included the cost of opening those shops."
Li Gang said.
"Teacher, I remember that those three libraries used 200 stakes of money. As for the wages of the shopkeepers and shop assistants, they couldn't even use 2 stakes of money in these three days." Li Chengqian said to himself.
"Your Highness is right, the old minister has neglected this matter."
After hearing this, Li Gang sighed slightly.
When people get old, they are actually in the field of arithmetic and cannot be considered His Royal Highness!
Then, hesitated for a moment, and then he refused to say again: "But I hope Your Highness will not blame the old minister for being too much."
"Teacher, what are you saying? As a teacher, if you are smart, you can just scold me!"
Li Chengqian was startled and said quickly.
"Your Highness, you are the crown prince of the current dynasty and the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. In the future, you will definitely manage the country and handle the government. You must not be obsessed with the way of merchants."
Li Gang said.
"Please rest assured by the teacher. Gao Ming was just a little excited to see so much money at once."
Li Chengqian said quickly, and then ordered Li Fu beside him.
"Go to Tonghuafang and Baoningfang quickly and bring back the books from these two libraries. I want to report good news to my father!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Li Fu bowed and walked out quickly.
Seeing this, a trace of worry flashed in Li Gang's eyes, but he did not continue to say more.
As for Li Chengqian, he sat on the sofa in Xiande Hall. After Li Fu brought all the money for selling books in the two libraries, he put them in boxes and carried them by the guards to Tai Chi Palace.
...
At this time, in the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin was receiving Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the Tang Dynasty is short of money.
When everyone heard that Prince Li Chengqian came to Tai Chi Hall with several large boxes with a group of Eastern Palace guards, everyone stopped and looked out of the hall with curiosity.
After all, a child who is only ten years old, although he is the prince, is also a child. He still makes everyone curious about such a high-profile move.
"I have met my father and uncles, and all the dukes!"
"I've seen His Highness the Crown Prince!"
After Li Chengqian came in, he found that everyone in the Tai Chi Hall, including his father, was staring at him.
I couldn't help but touch the back of my head awkwardly.
However, thinking of the 4,000 guan of money contained in the box behind me, I couldn't help but keep my back on my back, and I was also relieving my father's worries.
"Gao Ming, why are you here?"
Li Shimin asked curiously.
"Go back to Father, the child is sending money to Father!"
Li Chengqian said.
"oh?"
When everyone heard this, they were shocked and thought of the big boxes outside the hall at the same time.
"Gao Ming, what money did you give?"
Li Shimin was full of pampering and patience for Li Chengqian at this time.
Therefore, even if I have guessed the answer, I am still ready to continue to talk with Li Chengqian seriously.
"When I go back to my father, the 40,000 copies of "Number Arithmetic" and "Enlightenment Letters" printed by my child have sold out."
Li Chengqian's eyes were full of excitement and said, "A book was sold for 100 yuan, and it was sold for 4,000 guan. The money was being kept outside the hall."
"What, it's sold out?"
"Forty thousand copies were sold out?"
"One book is only one hundred documents?"
Now, everyone in the hall looked surprised.
Especially Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others, although they knew that His Highness was going to open a library to sell "Number Arithmetic" and "Enlightenment Letters".
However, I didn't expect that the Crown Prince would dare to sell only one hundred books in one book.
Moreover, they were moving so quickly that it seemed that they had not received any news yet, that they had sold forty thousand books.
Then, when he thought of something, he couldn't help but look at each other and sighed deeply in his heart.
Li Shimin, on the other hand, looked happy.
"Come here, carry all the boxes brought by the prince outside the hall."
"yes!"
With a reply, a guard soon carried the box brought by Li Chengqian into the hall.
Afterwards, Li Chengqian opened the wooden boxes one by one.
Five large boxes of copper coins were placed in the main hall, and the hall suddenly became quiet.
Although they have seen countless copper coins, now there is still a great impact on the five big boxes of copper coins in front of them.
"Gao Ming, I remember that your library has only been open for less than three days. Why did you buy it so quickly?"
Above, Li Shimin had already stood up and his face was full of excitement.
He couldn't stand up, he was excited.
He knew better than Li Chengqian that he spent more than 1,600 guan to open three libraries and printed 40,000 books.
This means that in less than three days, I earned 2,400 trump cards.
Since the beginning of the throne, it has been almost two years since the Tang Dynasty's treasury was short of money, and the treasury in the palace has been in short supply of finances, so the entire palace has to save money.
If you make this year, you won’t make 30 million pounds?
Although I know it is impossible, what if I can make a profit in the first half of the year?
At least, the Ministry of Revenue and the Imperial Palace Treasury will be rich.
Even the military pay for those troops can be paid at one time!
"Father, the child doesn't know."
However, it is obvious that Li Chengqian cannot understand Li Shimin's excitement.
"It seems that a few books were sold on the first day of the library opening. Therefore, the child thought that many scholars had not realized the benefits of these two books. They prepared these 40,000 books and sold them for one month."
"I didn't expect that today, just after the teacher finished class, the library shopkeeper came to ask for books, saying that they had already sold out, and there were many bookmakers who were booking!"
Li Chengqian told Li Shimin everything.
However, Li Chengqian did not tell Li Shimin what Li Gang advised him.
"This is strange!"
After hearing this, Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others looked at each other. It seemed that this was the first time they had met such a thing.
"Li Wei, go and send someone to investigate. Why is this?"
"yes!"
Hearing this, Li Wei hurriedly walked out.
However, all of them expected that half of this matter would be attributed to the major families.
The Zheng family in Xingyang is in the main house.
Zheng Yuanzhe looked at the pile of exquisite books piled up in front of him, and his face almost wrinkled into a rag.
Although he wanted to send people a few days ago to find out what was written in the mysterious book "The Letters of Enlightenment", he didn't want to have so many books!
"Mingde, who else is sending these books to the main house now?"
He sighed heavily, and Zheng Yuanjing, who was beside him, asked Zheng Mingde below.
"When I go back to my second grandfather, it seems that only Yunde's fifty books are left, and they are on the way!"
Zheng Mingde said quickly.
