Chapter 76 (2/2)
This words from Eunuch Li has dumbfounded both Hong Wenqing and Zuo s.h.i.+xian.
It was such a good business! Why didn’t he hurry up and print a lot? Did he actually just printed 100 more instead?
“Calculate again before you say it.” Hong Wenqing asked again, Eunuch Li never dared to stand. Hong Wenqing asked, “You tell me again that these additional 100, how much money does it sell?”
Although the price was not low, it was a pity that quant.i.ty was quite short.
“It’s sold for 1000 taels of silver.” Eunuch Li wiped away his sweat fiercely and continued, “Head Teacher Fang’s genuine signature high-quality standard collected print has 100 copies. It’s expensive, at present there, came shouts of getting it for three thousand taels of silver per copy.”
“How much?!” Hong Wenqing stared in a big way that he could not believe what he heard.
Like this. O_O
High-quality standard collected print? Three thousand taels of silver?! A newspaper?!
“3 thousand taels of silver.” Eunuch Li trembled while kneeling down, “Your Majesty, this servant has not lied, what I said is the truth. The price is indeed three thousand taels! This servant would never dare to say anything untrue!”
Three thousand taels of silver per copy… 100 copies, that would be 300,000 taels of silver! In addition to that… the amount of the 10,000 copies earlier.
This was just ama.s.sing money radically!
“How could it sell if it is so expensive?!” Hearing this, Zuo s.h.i.+xian held his breath with True Qi and urgently asked, “Did you inquire?”
“I asked,” Eunuch Li didn’t know if he should continue kneeling or if he should stand up, he just simply squatted while saying, “Mainly, Your Highness controlled the quant.i.ty tightly. Big cities will have 10,000 copies, each for five copper coin. Then there is also the 100 high quality standard collected prints for Jiang Hu. Many major pract.i.tioners wanted these, but the quant.i.ty is scarce. There is that «Legend of The Condor Heroes» serialization for collection value. Also, these high quality has Head Teacher Fang’s own handwriting which is signed and sealed. Therefore, due to it being limited and scarce, the price is especially high as a lot of people wanted to have one. Three thousand taels, these copies has also been sold out.”
Wow! This strategy was simply G.o.d-like!
Hong Wenqing and Zuo s.h.i.+xian thought thoroughly as both of them sighed with emotion for a long time. Zuo s.h.i.+xian heaved a deep sigh and said, “It seems that, this time, Thunder Sound Pavilion really has raised a super enormous h.e.l.l for themselves.”
That was true, only several days of time has pa.s.sed, and the money the Ninth Prince had collected was like a berserking water of the Yangtze River. With such development, G.o.d knows what degree this Grand Alliance would reach and develop to three years later!
“Ha Ha Ha Ha, good, good! Bao Er is worthy of being my, Hong Wenqing’s, son!” The Hong Wenqing state treasury only have three 100,000 taels of silver. He smiled and loudly said, “Pa.s.s on my decree, today in the palace, all the people including all ministers will have complete additional three months of salary!”
————-
Hong Xiaobao expected this first issue of Jiang Hu Stories’ high-quality goods standard collected print might rake in more money.
Actually, it must be must be said that this newspaper, regardless of the amount, could be sold for a hundred taels of silver per copy. But who would put up Fang Xinghan’s genuine signature continuously?! Who is Fang Xinghan? That is the Saint Academy Six Great Orthodoxies Head Teacher. In the world of Jiang Hu, he was considered the leaders of all scholars!
If you put it on Earth, Fang Xinghan was equivalent to the head of state.
His genuine signature, who wouldn’t want that?
Especially this world where cultivators have high status, so long as one practiced martial arts, who would not think that they could one day can b.u.mp into a genuine flamboyant character? Even if their good fortune did not allow them to meet a genuine high ranking star expert, it could still be a point to boast around if one has their signature. It surely was a reason, wasn’t it?
Therefore, this high-quality standard collected print that was released, people immediately became wild to s.n.a.t.c.h it for themselves!
From the beginning, the price was only decided to be a thousand tael, but soon afterwards, some people started shouting three times the amount directly! This made it sold out in an instant!
But now that these copies have all been sold out, some issues kept on following.
“Big Brother Xiaobao, these martial artists outside seems to prepare to rush into the front door,” Qingqing worriedly spoke, saying, “If we do not find a way to solve this issue, they might ask us to print again.”
The quality of love they provided was endless, n.o.body could imagine that Jiang Hu Stories would startlingly make people like this.
The Grand Alliance was yet to be officially established, but the front door has already been blocked by people wanting to do business, this was this highly improper.
But the issue this time was Hong Xiaobao really did not have the means to suppress all these martial artists. Who could say that they did not want to buy and sell? Would more copies be significant to these people?
“Uncle Fang, I will inconvenience you once more,” this time Hong Xiaobao can only invite Fang Xinghan over, “Only Uncle can help me explain to them our difficulties. Please advise them that we can only print these many words, and next time they want to buy will be seven days later. The second issue is about your genuine signature…”
“Then leave it to me!” Fang Xinghan also knew that time was urgent, or else these people would definitely rush them for trouble. They couldn’t just hit and tow them.
“Here I go!”
