264、Attracting investment
Liu Yi came here to pay a deposit to pay money this time. Although the Three Character Classic is not very written, it is a popular textbook, so the printing volume is very large. His family still can't handle it, so naturally he has to work with the other three companies.
What surprised the four booksellers was that Liang Feng not only put a few illustrations in the book, but also invited two husbands of the dynasty to write prefaces and inscriptions from the official pens. What a glory this is? When they received the inscription from Zhao Zhen sent by Liang Feng, they were so excited that they didn't know why they were fine. They quickly invited the incense table ceremony and worshipped in a high-profile place. On the day of the Goumo Tube, the four husbands launched the two best craftsmen, using the best jujube wood boards to make. The bosses of the four families came to the scene together, for fear of damaging the emperor's imperial pen a little bit. The two masters and craftsmen were trembling. The things that could be done in one stick of incense were completed in a whole hour, and they were sweating profusely.
Liang Feng was afraid that the four major booksellers would only have silver in their eyes, so he only wanted to make profits, so he specially attached a letter. He suggested that this book be divided into three levels: ordinary, collection and gift gifts. Ordinary books are only made of ordinary books and blue covers, which are priced at 30 cents per book, which is easy to popularize; those collected are made of fine and clean skin, which is priced at 100 cents per book; the best gift packaging is printed in a very small amount, leaving only gifts, and no takeout.
This suggestion is exactly what the four companies mean. He immediately started working hard and started working. He made a ruthless effort to print 100,000 copies, and 20,000 copies of the collection. Only 300 copies were printed. This time, Liu Yi came and escorted 3,000 copies of the collection, 500 copies of the collection, and 100 copies of the collection. In fact, he didn't have to go there personally, but now Liang Feng's market has soared. The four major operations have seen Liang Feng's infinite business opportunities in the future, and he must have to flatter him. He did not give up on the autumn and winter, and the climate was harsh. Liu Yi came here in person. At the same time, he also gave me a reward of 10,000 yuan.
Liang Feng originally agreed to not want it, but Liu Yi was reluctant to accept it and wanted to give it to him. Liang Feng thought about it and said with a smile, then I will accept it first, stay for a few more days, and there is something to bother you.
When Liu Yi heard this, he guessed that the magistrate of Liang had another hair growth. He happily agreed and stayed there for more than ten days. At this time, he happened to have a drink with him. He caught up with his official documents and edicts for promotion. He hurriedly stood up and raised his glass and said, "The Caomin congratulated the Lord on his promotion, and he had a bright future!"
Liang Feng smiled and took a glass of wine. He said, "Today, the double happiness is coming. The county comes in and thinks about something. He is about to ask your experts to take a look." After saying that, he stretched out his hand to Li Da, and Li Da quickly went out to get a small box for a while. Liang Feng signaled him to hand it to Liu Yi.
Liu Yi quickly got up and took it with his hands. The small box contained a set of small boxes, hollow and divided into four grids, each grid had an inscription of mud, which was hard and hard. Take it out and looked carefully. It turned out that the mud was engraved with the four words "Tianxia Ping". The grid was loose and the four characters were also uneven and ugly, but the characters were engraved well. Neat and beautiful.
Liu Yi looked at this broken mold and a few words and turned around, but he couldn't guess what the mystery was. In his family, he didn't even look down on children. Why did the county magistrate want to see it by himself like a treasure?
Seeing that he didn't agree with this thing, Liang Feng knew that he was thinking that his craft was ugly, he couldn't help but blushed. He took it with a smile, flipped the small grid and shook it hard. The four-character model fell on the table, and arranged the four-character model randomly, "The world is peaceful", "The world is peaceful", "The world is peaceful", and "Ping Taixia Tian" constantly combined. Liu Yi followed his hands and moved. He just didn't know what this guy was going to do.
After fiddling with him for a few times, Liang Feng looked at Liu Yi and waited for him to ask questions.
"Sir, forgive me for being stupid. What should I do with this thing?"
"How do you print on weekdays?"
"It's so that the adults learned that when we print, we first write the contents of the book on transparent thin paper and cover it with wooden boards. The craftsman uses a carving knife to cut off the words without the handwriting, and then put it into the carving board, and then put it on the printing." Liu Yi replied simply.
"Will a new plate be carved for every new book printed?"
“This is natural.”
"Okay, let you look at this, just ask you, if you carve different characters into fonts and arrange them at will according to the content of the engraving, wouldn't it save labor, time and time?"
"Yes! Why didn't we expect it?" Liu Yi slapped his thigh and said in surprise. At this time, the four extremely ugly things immediately became treasures. He picked them up and turned them up and down, his face full of excitement.
"But I still have some things to think about in this county, so I left you to take it out after so many geniuses. Let's take a look at it together. I originally planned to use mud to burn a hard mold to use it. The sealing hill is close to the Yellow River, so I took some to try it out. It's easy to engrave it tightly. It's the weather changes, and the font mold is likely to be deformed due to hot and cold. It probably won't work if you use wood or the same. It's fine if you print three or five characters. But if you use it to print books, it won't work. It's inevitable that the size is uneven, the size is not staggered, and there are also dryness and cracks. Look, what method is better?"
Liu Yi had just come into contact with this thing, and he had already fully understood Liang Feng's creativity, but he had no idea about the material of the font. In the past, he used to carve wooden boards, and there was also this problem. The font size of each board was the same. However, a book had at least hundreds of boards. Over time, the printed pages would also have different sizes. They are big publishers, rich, and can afford good boards, which can basically be overcome. Therefore, they didn't care much, and immediately replied: "If you use good date and pear wood, you will definitely succeed."
Liang Feng was skeptical. He thought it was not that simple. He seemed to have succeeded after repeated experiments. However, he didn't care about these things, he only made creativity and made requests, and just left the rest to others.
So Liang Feng nodded and said, "I don't understand this, so you can do it. Go and experiment, and show it to me if you have done it. Then I have a lot of things to ask you to do. Haha, but don't worry, I won't let you lose money."
Liu Yi smiled and said, "What are you talking about? After years of interaction, how can the common people and others not be assured of the adults? Sooner or later, the adults will become successful. We just follow the adults and do some business. But Ruyang is not far away from this, and it is really a bit troublesome to make a comeback and go for these molds." Liu Yi pondered.
"Let's do this, anyway, the crossroads of the mountains and rivers are smooth and convenient. If you are interested, you might as well bring some furniture and open a semicolon here. If this matter is done, I will guarantee that you will never lose money." Liang Feng said with a smile.
