Chapter 56: Drag the Jin Yiwei into the water
  After identifying the shops, they left the street.

Jiang Wei took them back to the Jinyiwei Yamen of Zhenfusi not far away, and had people bring them tea.

"Master Jiang, how much does it cost to rent that shop?" Zhu Song asked.

"free of charge."

Jiang Wei waved his hand and said: "Instead of renting out a shop to others, it is better to keep it for His Highness and the little emperor's grandson. The things belonging to our Jin Yiwei belong to you, the little emperor's grandson."

There is such a good thing. Zhu Song was about to agree, but Zhu Xuan shook his head and said: "This is not possible. Jin Yiwei's brother is still waiting for rent to subsidize his life. If Mr. Jiang doesn't want the rent, how about we give 10% of the income? Let Jin Yiwei use it as a store rental?"

10% profit, so much!
  Zhu Song definitely disagreed and was about to stop him, but noticed Zhu Xuan's eyes and hesitated for a moment before stopping.

It's not clear yet whether their storybook can sell well. If it can, then 10% of the profit will be a lot. How can Zhu Song not feel sad and regretful if he just gives it to Jin Yiwei like this.

The plot of that book is indeed exciting, and Zhu Song believes it will be a hit.

But the nephew seemed to have some plan, and he finally chose to believe Zhu Xuan.

"10% profit!"

Jiang Wei was shocked when he heard this.

Profit or no gain, these are not important to Jiang Wei.

The important thing is that the imperial guards can be tied together with the little emperor's grandson. When the little emperor's grandson becomes the emperor in the future, they will be the great heroes, and the value behind them is not small.

The 10% profit is not just as simple as cooperation.

It also has special significance.

Jiang Wei thought about it for a long time and felt that he should not be too greedy: "10% is too much, how about half a percent?"

Zhu Xuan said: "It's just 10%. Is it okay for Uncle Twenty? If not, we can sign a contract now and determine how the proceeds will be divided."

"no problem."

Zhu Song finally agreed.

They signed the contract quickly.

Jiang Wei held the contract in his hand and bowed excitedly: "Thank you, little emperor, and thank you, His Highness, King Han."

"Master Jiang, you're welcome!"

Zhu Song said.

Zhu Xuan asked: "Does Mr. Jiang know anyone who can help us print books?"

Jiang Wei said: "There is a printing workshop in the south of the city. It is familiar with our Jinyiwei, and Yan Guan also knows it. I will ask him to take the two highnesses down later."

Zhu Xuan finally warned: "Master Jiang, please remember not to let Grandpa Huang know."

Jiang Wei said: "I understand!"

Next, they left the Zhenfu Division.

Jiang Wei held the contract in his hand, his hands trembling with excitement. This was his opportunity, and it was also the opportunity for their Jin Yiwei in the future.

"We must help the little emperor grandson!"

he was thinking.

Next, Jiang Wei also thought that he had to find some ginseng, velvet antler and other things that could replenish the body and send them to Xu Xingzu in the imperial kitchen to help Lao Zhu replenish himself.

As long as Lao Zhu can live a few more years, his chances will be greater.

Certainly possible!

-

Yan Guan led the way, first looking for the printing workshop.

"Xiao Yunxuan, why did you give away 10% of your income?"

Zhu Song was puzzled and said: "They, Jinyiwei, should serve us. The shops are also owned by our Zhu family. It is up to us to decide whether to rent or not. There is no need to give up 10% of the profits."

Zhu Xuan explained: "Twenty Uncle's structure has become smaller. If we give the profits to Jin Yiwei, we can tie it up with Jin Yiwei. If there is any need, we can let Jin Yiwei do it. The most important thing is that with the support of Jin Yiwei, besides the emperor, Grandpa, who dares to embarrass us?" Hearing this, Zhu Song suddenly realized.

Although 10% of the income is a lot, it seems that Jin Yiwei can help them do things, which is not bad and can bring out its value.

Zhu Song said: "Xiao Yunxuan, how do you know so much? You know more than me."

Zhu Xuan thought about the explanation: "Because I have read "The Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Grandpa Huang told me that as long as you read this book thoroughly, you can understand many things. I often read it, but I don't know if I have understood it thoroughly."

After hearing this, Hou Xian felt that his master was a bit evil.

Not only did he become a tool, but even this storybook became a shield and the source of Zhu Xuan's various reasons.

"It seems that I haven't read the book thoroughly yet. I'll have to think more about it when I go back tonight."

Zhu Song didn't think too much. After all, the book Three Kingdoms did contain a lot of wisdom and the like.

They soon came to the printing house.

Seeing that it was Yan Guan who brought the people here, the boss here understood that they were related to Jin Yiwei and hurriedly welcomed them in.

Zhu Song put forward various printing requirements.

Because they no longer had the cost of renting a store, they had plenty of money on hand, and the first batch of printed books was much more. In addition, the boss here also wanted to please Jin Yiwei, so the price he gave would not be too high.

As for "The Eight Parts of the Dragon", it has not been written yet. This will be printed later. The classics of saints will be printed first as the first batch of books to be sold, and story books will be printed later.

In addition to writing it himself, Zhu Xuan also wants to find a group of signed authors.

He provides materials and outlines, and lets the contracted authors write the customized articles he wants. He can also publish newspapers and serialize them in newspapers. When the number of serials is almost the same, he will organize them and print them into books, which can be sold a second time.

These are Zhu Xuan's follow-up plans. At present, he has to finalize the storybook and make money before he can find a group of contract authors.

After arranging the printed content, Zhu Song took Zhu Xuan back.

On the way, Zhu Xuan said again: "Second brother, our bookstore can't just sell books."

“What else can I sell?”

"Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc. are all fine."

Zhu Xuan analyzed: "Our bookstore is located near the Imperial College. Those Imperial College students usually like to write. We sell books and things related to reading and writing at the same time, killing two birds with one stone."

"Makes sense."

Zhu Song rubbed Zhu Xuan's little head and asked with a smile: "There is no business content in "The Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms". How do you understand this, little Yunxuan?"

"Hou Xian told me this," Zhu Xuan said.

"Yes, it's all me." Hou Xian, a tool man, was very conscious.

Zhu Song is not stupid, how could he believe them.

The little nephew is indeed different from ordinary people, smart and full of ideas, and he gradually got used to it.

Return to the palace.

Zhu Xuan was not idle and quickly started writing a book again.

When I've almost finished writing, I ask Hou Xian to copy it again, and he usually has to work until late at night before finishing the work.

The next day, Zhu Xuan went to the main hall as usual, read it to Zhu Song first, and then sorted and collected it together.

Time passed quickly, and several days passed.

Zhu Xuan finally wrote down the contents of the first two volumes and prepared them for distribution.

They asked for leave again, went to the printing shop, and handed the manuscript to the boss Zhang Wu for printing.

Zhang Wu did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent the manuscript to the workers, who started typesetting it directly.

At the same time, Zhu Xuan found someone to illustrate the calligraphy and painting and make engravings. When the time comes, they will be printed and published together to add some interest to the books.
