Chapter 71 - 71 69 The bitterness ends and the sweetness
?Chapter 71: Chapter 69 The bitterness ends and the sweetness begins Chapter 71: Chapter 69 The bitterness ends and the sweetness begins “It’s not that many! But since you have a Magic Artifact, you should be able to complete it, right? From now on, our bookstore will pay sixty wen per book for the copies you make, and there are some scholars who want to buy books with your annotations, saying the price is negotiable. What do you think?”
“Forget about the annotated books. I am but a novice in learning; I wouldn’t want to lead the youngsters astray,” Ruo Shui waved a hand, declining to sell books with her annotations.
The Shopkeeper looked disappointed, “Then what about the other books? Some scholars have specified titles they want, and of course, they’ve also indicated that if you don’t have the ones they’re looking for, to reserve a copy of another book for them.”
Xuanbao glanced at the list, which had about a hundred or more names. She pondered about the speed of copying for a moment before saying, “Dad, let’s take five different books back home to copy today and deliver them in three days. We’ll copy a hundred of each book to start, how about that?”
Upon hearing this, the Shopkeeper’s eyes lit up, and he became even more curious about the “Magic Artifact”. Three days to copy five hundred books was incredibly efficient!
Such remarkable skill from this master!
He must firmly tie him to the Academy!
The Shopkeeper seized the opportunity to ask, “Mr. Ruo, can you deliver five hundred books to our bookstore every three days from now on? Any book will do, and we can raise the price to sixty wen a piece. Naturally, thicker books will net a higher price.”
Boxue Bookstore wasn’t only in the county town; they had branches throughout Xuanyuan Country, so the Shopkeeper was not worried about selling the books.
Three days could net thirty taels of silver; ten taels a day. How could Ruo Shui refuse? “I can!”
Ruo Shui felt her daughter had thought things through carefully. Printing five hundred books in three days left plenty of time to spare, which could be used for other tasks.
