Ye Ji Bookstore Opening, Rising to Fame!
The bookstore was ready, and there was still some time before it opened.
Tidas called the servant over.
He handed a thick stack of papers to the other party.
"Master, this is?"
The servant was puzzled.
Wasn't this the " paper " that Master had developed some time ago?
What did Master mean by this?
"Send some people to put up these flyers on the streets and alleys, and send some people to pass them to passers-by.”
Tidas instructed.
The servant widened his eyes.
Such a good item that could replace bamboo slips and wooden slips to copy and record words actually had to be posted on the streets and alleys?
Wasn't it too wasteful?
He even had to give them to passersby?
The servant's heart ached.
"Master, isn't this too wasteful?”
"A waste?"
Tidas looked at him in confusion.
What waste?
When the bookstore opened, they had to use flyers to publicize it.
Otherwise, no one would know that his bookstore had opened.
These papers were used appropriately.
Moreover, these papers were currently produced by their workshop. Although the price was not low, it was not too expensive. It was just a few flyers, and he could still afford it.
"I have my own arrangements.”
Tidas instructed.
The servant nodded and was about to leave with the stack of flyers.
"Wait a minute."
"Get some people to give some food to the beggars and children and let them publicize the opening of the bookstore.”
"Also, gather some scholars and let them publicize it in restaurants and taverns.”
Tidas's words made the servant dizzy.
Then, the servant reacted and went to make arrangements.
Several days later.
"Ye Ji Bookstore is about to open!"
"Ye Ji Bookstore is about to open!!”
On the street, beggars were shouting loudly.
The children at the side also joined in the commotion and shouted together.
The atmosphere was lively.
The passersby looked at them.
Surprise appeared on his face.
Ye Ji Bookstore?
What was a bookstore?
The term Shusi originated from the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, the people of the Qin Dynasty naturally did not know what a bookstore was.
In restaurants and taverns.
The scholars arranged by Tidas helped to introduce and promote the Ye's Bookstore.
"A bookshop is a place where books are engraved and sold. It's similar to a restaurant that sells food and wine, but a bookshop only sells books.”
"I heard that Ye Ji Bookstore can read books and sell books, but if you want to read books, you have to pay a small fee.”
Everyone was enlightened.
So this was the bookstore.
Suddenly, one of them reacted and revealed a shocked expression.
"Books are so precious, yet someone is willing to let the world read them and even sell them?”
"Who is so generous!"
"The person who opened the bookstore must be a Saint!”
"When the bookstore opens in the future, we can buy and read books.”
"This is the blessing of us scholars, the blessing of the world!”
The scholars present were ecstatic and extremely excited.
"What does a bookstore do?"
"What does it have to do with us commoners?”
The commoners were also discussing Ye Ji Bookstore.
Unlike the scholars who were surprised, the commoners looked like they were watching a show.
Compared to the newly opened bookshop, the price of daily necessities was what they paid attention to.
A white-haired old man sitting in the market looked at this group of ignorant people and shook his head." How ignorant! When the bookstore opened, it wasn't just scholars who could read it. We could read it too. It was reported that although the books in Ye Ji Bookstore were expensive, the cost of entering the bookstore wasn't high, so we could read it too.”
The vegetable seller did not think much of it.
"We can't read, so what's the use of reading?”
"Sigh! You are illiterate, but are your descendants also illiterate? With the opening of Ye Ji Bookstore, the number of people who can read and write will definitely increase. Your descendants might also be able to benefit from it.”
The surrounding commoners came to a realization.
That's right.
If Ye Ji Bookstore opened, they could also come into contact with books.
Their children and grandchildren also had the opportunity to read books.
Perhaps there would be scholars among them, and there might even be a possibility of them stepping on an official career.
The commoners 'faces instantly revealed excitement and excitement.
The appearance of the Ye Ji Bookstore made the people and scholars of the Qin Dynasty relish in it.
They were in a heated discussion.
They were looking forward to the opening of Ye Ji Bookstore.
On the day Ye's Bookstore opened, the door was blocked three layers inside and three layers outside, densely packed with people.
Among them were scholars who were thirsty for knowledge, and ordinary people who were watching the show.
"After waiting for so long, it's finally open!”
"I wonder what sage books there are in the Book of Leaves.”
"There are too many people. I can't even see the front. Please make way, please make way!”
"Don't push forward, there's no more space!”
Tidas stood on the temporary platform at the entrance of the bookstore and looked down at the densely packed heads below. It seemed that the publicity was quite effective.
The servants stood below, holding hands as a warning line to stop the scholars and commoners from rushing over.
Cold sweat kept dripping down their faces.
Wasn't there too many people?
This was too exaggerated!
"Cough!"
Tidas coughed. The sound was neither light nor heavy, but it fell into everyone's hearts. Everyone subconsciously looked at Tidas on the stage.
He was wearing a white robe and his body was slender and straight like a pine tree.
His face was like white jade, his eyebrows were soft and exquisite, he was extraordinarily handsome, and he had a noble aura.
"Where did this young master come from? So handsome."
"Isn't he the newly appointed Assistant Minister Chang?”
The crowd below the stage discussed in low voices.
"I'm Ye Xuan, the owner of Ye's Bookstore. Today is the opening day of Ye's Bookstore. There's a discount for all books that come to buy. The first 50 to enter the bookstore will be able to read for free in the bookstore for a week. Everyone is welcome to come and purchase books!”
Tidas's words were like a huge rock smashing into the still water, causing a storm.
Free reading for a week?
The eyes of the Humble Class students instantly turned red.
How much silver would he save in a week? How many books could he copy?
Tidas looked down at the scholar whose face was flushed with excitement. He clenched his fists and was about to rush into the bookstore with his body tensed up. He thought to himself that the effect was here.
He walked down the stage and the servants quickly carried the temporary platform away. Then, they opened the door of Ye's Bookstore.
This group of people swarmed in, and the servants who maintained order were almost knocked over.
"You can pay for reading the books here.”
The cashier shouted at the crowd.
Everyone was extremely curious.
This was a very common pattern in the later generations, but at this moment, it was particularly different.
They obediently paid for the books according to the rules.
The bookstore was filled with people.
Most people looked at the bookstore curiously.
Humble students were thirsty for knowledge, so they were racing against time to read books.
For several days, the bookstore was packed with people.
Especially those poor students.
The cost of reading books was not high. For those poor students, it was still barely affordable.
Now that they had such a good opportunity to read all the books in the world, they wished they could stay in the bookstore all day.
On the other side, Tidas went on stage to give a speech, allowing a portion of the onlookers to recognize Tidas.
He knew that this bookstore was opened by the newly appointed Assistant Minister Chang.
The news quickly spread.
Tidas's influence also spread out at once.
