Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 99
Seeing Ying Zheng's appearance as a good student, Zhao Yi couldn't help but slander him in his heart.

[Wow, the old stuff is really easy to learn, do you really understand it, or just pretend? 】

[But having said that, what did the old guy just say to Wang Chi, the printing shop?How did he know about the printing shop?Is there someone old around me? 】

[Yes, this world belongs to him. Whoever wants to do something can't escape his surveillance. 】

[Just let him defecate, if he has the ability to take away the printing workshop and the paper workshop, I am not rare, then he is a gold-swallowing beast. After a few days of hard work, I have used up a thousand gold, and I don’t know when cover the cost……】

Treason!evil creature!Ying Zheng couldn't help but curse in his heart!
In addition to mine, doesn't this world also belong to your prince sooner or later?The world is yours, and you are still thinking about that little money!
Ying Zheng really didn't know what Zhao Yi was thinking, but seeing how shocking he was today, he didn't bother to argue with him.

"Well, things like punctuation marks are very good and worth promoting. In the future, you will be solely responsible for the promotion of punctuation marks!" Ying Zheng looked happy.

After hearing this, Zhao Yi was speechless, and his heart was about to explode.

[I have to take care of the promotion of punctuation marks. Are you kidding? I am a prince, so I have to take care of this trivial matter! 】

Rebel!The fists in Ying Zheng's sleeves were clenched white, and he really wanted to punch Zhao Yi.

But then I thought about it, if I let this traitor promote punctuation marks, he might make a mess for me. I might as well use it to show off, and then let those guys in the court do it!
When he thought of the scene where he had succeeded in showing off in front of the ministers and the ministers were dumbfounded, Ying Zheng's fists loosened again.

When Yingzheng left the Prince's Mansion, Zhao Yi couldn't wait to go to Houkuanyuan, where the printing workshop had already printed more than a hundred copies of "The Story of the Stone".

Wang Chi handed a copy to Zhao Yi himself, and Zhao Yi read it carefully and nodded slightly.

The book in his hand was exactly the same as the one Ying Zheng took away. Looking at the other printed products, Zhao Yi nodded repeatedly.

Regardless of whether there will be unqualified printing in the future, even if it is unqualified, it will definitely be countless times better than those bamboo slip books currently sold in the Daqin market!
"Very good, well done. At this speed, when can we start selling?" Zhao Yi began to care about follow-up questions.

"In reply to the prince, according to the current speed, [-] books will be completed tomorrow." Wang Chi replied seriously: "The shop selling books has been prepared. The shop is fully equipped and staffed. We just wait. His Highness gave the order to open the business!”

"In addition, this is the detailed list of purchased items and the balance of money in the past few days. Please look over it, Your Highness!"

As expected, Wang Chi is a poinsettia top businessman. He has considered everything he does and does not need Zhao Yi to bother at all. He perfectly meets Zhao Yi's requirements for being a shopkeeper.

Zhao Yi got up straight away, and patted Wang Chi on the shoulder, "I said before, the money is entrusted to you, and I don't care how you spend it. Since I believe in you, I will support you in whatever you do. You are in charge of the details." , only look at the result!"

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Wang Chi was immediately moved. Being able to gain such trust from a country's crown prince is enough in this life!
"Your Highness, please rest assured, this subordinate will definitely live up to what you entrust. If there is any mistake, please come and see me!" Wang Chi became ruthless.

Zhao Yi sneered when he heard the words, "Of course you can rest assured, do your best, and don't want your head!"

On the second day, at the most prosperous crossroads in Xianyang City, a new shop named "Daqin Bookstore" opened.

On the black lacquered plaque, the four gold-plated characters attracted countless people's attention on the spot.

Ying Liman and Feng Shuyi had known the news a long time ago and immediately arranged for their servants to call all the rich and wealthy ladies they knew and go to the Daqin Bookstore to support them.

As a result, the newly opened bookstore was immediately crowded with people, and when the guests entered the bookstore, they were all dumbfounded when they saw the "Story of the Stone" printed on paper.

Just looking at the cover from a distance, everyone can see that this is a rare item and definitely not cheap.

After all, in the entire Daqin, only this bookstore can see such scrolls. According to everyone's psychological expectations, the books in this bookstore are at least worth a tael of gold.

But when the No. 1 customer plucked up the courage and asked Wang Chi, the temporary shopkeeper, about the price of the book, he was stunned.

"Fifty bucks? Are you sure the shopkeeper is right? The price of that book is only fifty bucks?"

"It's just fifty bucks, no bully. Anyone who can afford fifty bucks will get the book." Wang Chi waved his hand grandly, and all the customers present exploded.

"Fifty bucks, it's so cheap, I thought it cost at least one gold, so I want a copy, it's fifty bucks!"

"Holy crap, it's really for sale, so I want it too. I'll buy ten copies!"

"I want it too, I want it too. It's definitely a good thing to give something like this to someone else. Give me ten copies..."

After learning that such a beautifully printed and bound book only cost [-] bucks, all the customers present went crazy, and it was immediately obvious that there was a panic buying frenzy.

Ying Liman and Feng Shuyi each held a copy of "The Story of the Stone" in their hands, looking at the hot shopping scene in front of them, laughing so hard that their eyes narrowed into thin lines.

"Let me just say, this Wang Chi has the brains to raise the price of a book to fifty dollars!"

"If you follow Brother Yi's [-] big money, not to mention how much less you earn, I'm afraid the inventory here won't be enough to sell!"

"That's right. I feel like I'm losing money if I sell such a good book for only fifty yuan. Look at these guys, are they short of money?"

"Hey, look at this page, it really puts my name at the front, Sister Shuyi, your name and the crown prince are behind me, take a quick look..."

Ying Liman excitedly looked at the small gilt characters with her name on the cover, with a look of excitement.

As Zhao Yi and Ying Zheng originally envisioned, once the completed book "Story of the Stone" came out, it resounded throughout Xianyang City together with the reputation of "Daqin Bookstore".

Within half an hour, more than 3000 copies of "Story of the Stone" were sold out, but there was still an endless stream of customers who came to buy it.

But according to Zhao Yi's request, after Daqin Bookstore sells [-] copies, it will only accept reservations and no longer sell them.

Zhao Yi, who is well aware of the psychology of hunger sales, also opened Wang Chi's eyes. In just half a day, the number of reservations exceeded [-] copies, and this number continued to increase as time went by.
