Du Qi had been busy the entire time. It was late at night when he finished writing the proposal for movable type printing. At this time, Du Qi was already extremely tired. After all, it was very tiring to sit for such a long time.
Du Qi stretched lazily before calling Liu Jian over. He let Liu Jian help him wash up before going to sleep. He had been running around during the day and copying manuscripts at night. He was very tired and fell into a deep sleep after lying down.
The next morning, when he woke up, it was already late in the morning.
It was already past nine.
Liu Jian helped Du Qi wash up. After washing up, Du Qi was eating breakfast. He looked at Liu Jian and said, "Is someone looking for me?"
"Yes!"
Liu Jian nodded and said, "Young Master, a person named Qian Zailai came to the residence. He said that you informed him to come. Young Master didn't rest well last night, so I didn't disturb you. I asked him to wait in the residence. "
Du Qi said, "Call him over."
"Yes!"
Liu Jian immediately agreed.
He turned around to inform him. After a while, Qian Zailai had already entered the courtyard. He looked at Du Qi, who was eating porridge, and bowed respectfully. "Young Master!"
"Sit!"
Du Qi instructed.
Immediately, Du Qi said, "Shopkeeper Qian, have you eaten breakfast?"
Qian Zailai said, "I have."
Du Qi said, "Liu Jian, go to my desk. There's a book with the title 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' written on the cover. Bring this book over and let Shopkeeper Qian take a look. "
"Yes!"
Liu Jian immediately went to arrange it.
Du Qi continued to eat his porridge with a happy expression.
After a while, Liu Jian took out the 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' written by Du Qi and handed it to Qian Zailai. Qian Zailai took it and looked at Du Qi with a puzzled expression.
Du Qi said, "Shopkeeper Qian, read the book first."
Qian Zailai nodded and didn't say anything else. He picked up the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and continued reading. When he saw the opening poem, a look of shock appeared on his face.
Even though this poem was different from the folk songs of the current era, such as five-character or seven-character poems, the charm of this poem was extremely majestic.
Qian Zailai was a book lover.
He also liked to read.
When he saw the opening of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he was completely attracted by the content. Qian Zailai didn't like romance books, nor did he like books about infatuated men and resentful women. Therefore, he continued reading with anticipation. After reading it for the first time, Qian Zailai's expression was extremely excited. He was immersed in it and delighted because he had read a good book.
Qian Zailai continued reading, but the more he read, the more he couldn't extricate himself. The expression on his face was filled with excitement. Based on his experience, this was definitely a good book. It might even be a popular book.
It would definitely be a hit.
When he was done, he raised his head and saw Du Qi looking at him with a faint smile.
Du Qi had already finished eating.
However, he didn't disturb Qian Zailai, who was already immersed in it.
Du Qi said with a smile, "Manager Qian, how is the quality of this Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"
Qian Zailai's eyes lit up. He looked excited as he praised, "Good book, this is really a good book! Although there are only four chapters, the content of the book can already be seen. This book is full of majesty. Especially the portrayal of the characters, it's even more vivid. Although I can't see the rest, it's really a good book! "
At this point, Qian Zailai asked, "Was this Romance of the Three Kingdoms written by Young Master?"
Du Qi said with a smile, "Didn't you see the pen name in the book? The person who wrote this book is a person named Luo Guanzhong, not me. "
After Qian Zailai heard that, he sized up Du Qi again.
He didn't believe it.
The so-called Luo Guanzhong was just Du Qi's excuse. It was just that Du Qi didn't want to expose it.
It was definitely Du Qi's doing.
Du Qi didn't care about Qian Zailai's thoughts. He continued, "I will continue to write the rest of the content. When the time comes, you can just come to my residence to get it. Now, take the content of these four chapters back and get someone to quickly copy it, then sell it. "
After a pause, Du Qi continued, "After the first two chapters are sold, I will change the way the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is sold and the way to copy it. In three days at most, the fifth chapter will be updated. When you sell the first four chapters, remember to add a sentence at the end. The fifth chapter will be updated in three days. "
"Yes!"
Qian Zailai immediately agreed.
At this moment, Qian Zailai felt that he had discovered the truth of the matter. This must be Du Qi's doing.
Qian Zailai looked at Du Qi with eyes full of admiration. He felt that Du Qi was really not simple to be able to write such a shocking article at such a young age.
Amazing!
Really amazing!
Qian Zailai had been standing upright, but at this moment, he faintly arched his back. He felt that he was insignificant in front of Du Qi. Du Qi's brilliance was really dazzling.
It was his great honor to be able to follow Du Qi and do things for Du Qi.
Du Qi looked at Qian Zailai's eyes. He already knew that Qian Zailai was probably certain that it was him who wrote it. However, this didn't affect Du Qi much. It wasn't important.
Qian Zailai couldn't wait to get back to work. He said, "Young Master, I'll go back immediately and arrange for the books. I'll get this matter up and running in the shortest time possible. "
After a pause, Qian Zailai continued, "The first batch of 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' will be released in the shortest time possible. All the channels that I've been running all these years will be opened. Even if I have to sacrifice my old face, I'll get it done. "
Du Qi said, "Alright, go get busy."
"Yes!"
Qian Zailai turned and left.
At this moment, Qian Zailai only felt endless excitement in his heart. It was as if endless joy was about to burst out of his chest. He was looking forward to such a situation.
After Qian Zailai left, Du Qi went to the study and took out the movable type printing technique that he had written. Then, he went to the courtyard of the Jeong Clan. The movable type printing technique that he was about to talk about was a real secret.
It was a secret technique that couldn't be leaked.
Therefore, Du Qi had to find the Jeong Clan and get them to transfer craftsmen from the clan to participate in the production. If such a secret was leaked, then the trick of the movable type printing technique would no longer be a trick.
This was something that needed to be taken note of.
Du Qi entered the courtyard of the Jeong Clan. Currently, the Jeong Clan was counting the harvest of the shop. When he saw Du Qi coming, he waved his hand to dismiss the maidservants, leaving only Du Qi behind. He asked, "Erlang, what are you here for?"
Du Qi said, "Mother, your son came today because there's an important matter that I need your help with. Mother has great foresight. Take a look at the production process of this movable type printing technique. Your son figured it out. Take a look. "
"Alright!"
The Jeong Clan immediately replied.
She took over the production process of the movable type printing technique from Du Qi. The Jeong Clan was an extremely shrewd person. They were literate and knew how to run a business. They were knowledgeable.
When she first saw the movable type printing technique, she didn't think much of it. But later on, the Jeong Clan's face revealed a shocked expression. From time to time, they would look up at Du Qi.
This was done by Du Qi.
This was done by her son.
Her son was too monstrous!
