Chapter 576 Banquet of Hundred Officials

Publishing and sales are in the charge of other colleagues.

When Shen Chenlan got the sample booklet, she realized that the book had already been sold out in Beijing.

Many people bought this book back with the idea of ​​flattering the Holy Father.

But when I went back and read it, I realized that this book is rich in content and clear in structure, and it is a rare good book.

Moreover, the price of this book is only [-] cash, which corresponds to the original intention of doing welfare for the children of poor families.

It's a pity that the first batch of circulation was too small, and many people sold out in one go.

Some of them held it in their hands and wanted to resell it, and they also drove up the price to five taels a book.

Even if it doubles several times, some people are willing to buy it.

Of course, the proceeds from the books published by the Imperial Academy belong to the state treasury.

Moreover, it is still sold at the price of [-] Wen when it is printed and distributed by the government.

Those that are dumped second-hand and sold expensively will naturally not be included in the government's income.

Before New Year's Eve, Jiang Ning found a caravan that was going to Changping Prefecture, discussed with the manager, and gave them some money to bring some letters back.

If you are in business, if you want to do it for a long time, you naturally need to build a good relationship with the government.

Naturally, there is absolutely no way I cannot resist the orders of the Beijing official.

After finding someone, Jiang Ning said to his family: "Father, mother, husband, do you have anything to write and bring, I just let the caravan take it back together."

Lin Ru said, "Then write a letter to your grandmother to see if she is still in good health. If she can bring some money, I will bring some money back."

Jiang Shi has no one in his hometown anymore, and he has no one to contact.

Shen Chenlan said: "That's just right, let the caravan go to Lianxi Academy, send a few books to Mr. Zou, and ask him to send another copy to Boss Yao of the Zhaohe Town Bookstore. In the future, the students in the town can also read books. See these books."

Now this book is hard to find in Beijing, and if it spreads to Changping Prefecture, I don't know when it will be.

"Okay." Jiang Ning replied.

So Jiang Ning sorted out two parcels in person, one was for the grandmother's house in Caihua Village, and the other was for Mr. Zou of Lianxi Academy, both of which contained letters.

After the caravan left, the official feast on New Year's Eve began.

Usually, small officials like Shen Chenlan who don't have to go to court will be called into the palace to participate in the official banquet.

It was the first time for Shen Chenlan to participate. The head of the Hanlin Academy, Mr. Tan Xinji, brought all the adults of the Imperial Academy to sit at the table.

Among the hundreds of officials, if they want to take the opportunity to make friends with each other, it is basically at this time.

After Shen Chenlan took the seat, she saw that everyone present was complimenting and entertaining each other when they came and went.

At this time, he found an empty seat and planned to deal with it in a low-key manner.

But it seemed that things were contrary to his wishes. As soon as he took his seat, an official he didn't know cupped his hands and chatted to him: "I have admired Mr. Shen's name for a long time, and the "Court Test Policy" edited by Mr. Shen a few days ago is indeed a good book. Mr. Shen is still compiling "Country Examination Policy" and the remaining few volumes. If Mr. Shen can use it by then, I will try my best to do my part. I don’t know if there are enough articles now?"

Shen Chenlan had no choice but to stand up again, cupped his hands with him, and said: "Welcome, welcome, the more the better."

"That's good." The adult chatted with Shen Chenlan for a few more words before being pushed down by others.

Although this year's new champion has not appeared in the court, his name has appeared several times.

Therefore, many people made friends with him with the idea of ​​a banquet for hundreds of officials.
