Chapter 977

It has to be said that Kong Yingda's action was very fast. One by one, the children of the Kong Family attacked all around and went straight to the major Booksellers in Chang'an city. When they saw the published current books, it goes without saying that they went crazy to sweep the goods directly.

"The Kongs are crazy! They bought so many books!" a merchant stared at the Kongs' children who kept carrying books from one side of the bookstore.

"The Confucius family is a scholarly family, so it's understandable to buy books, but most of the books in the Confucius family are single copies. I'm afraid you don't need to buy these common books on the market. You can't use so many." a bookseller was happy, but he couldn't help wondering that the Confucius family doesn't lack books. They just need books, and they don't need to buy 20 copies of each book.

One of the children of the Confucius family shook his head and said, "this is the order of the wine worship Lord, and we are also ordered to do it! As long as there are engraved books in your bookstore, 20 copies of each book will come."

Time is also extremely urgent for Kong Yingda. For the books already on the market, he directly adopts the simplest way, that is, buying and collecting all the books that can be bought on the market, which saves half of his effort. As for the single book in the Kong family's collection, it is the books that need pottery movable type printing.

The bookseller couldn't help breathing. This is a big business! Once their engravings are printed, they are idle. It's nothing to print 20 copies at a time, but they can't stand a large amount!

"Please rest assured that the villain will certainly give the Kong family the most favorable price." the bookseller quickly said in a loud voice. It was the Confucius house after Kong Sheng. If it was spread, it would be good for the reputation of his bookstore.

"And twenty copies of these books!" the children of the Kong Family frowned, pointing to a row of books.

The bookseller immediately wondered, "this is a Mohist book!"

As we all know, Confucianism and Mohism don't deal with each other. He doesn't want to offend the Confucius family.

The children of the Confucius family said boldly, "not only Mohist books, but also books from all schools of thought, the Confucius family wants them!"

"Ah!" the bookseller was stunned and had to do so. He loaded hundreds of books into the carriage of the Kong family.

However, this is only a portrayal of a bookseller in Chang'an city. Then the children of the Kong Family attacked everywhere, almost emptied the inventory of all Booksellers in Chang'an City, leaving a long list of book orders. The Booksellers in Chang'an City were in a carnival. This behavior of the Kong family was spread wildly in Chang'an city.

"Kong sacrificing wine is the wealth of the whole family to buy books." someone quietly calculated an account for Kong Yingda. I'm afraid these books are worth more than half of the wealth of the Confucius family, which is a crazy behavior for anyone.

"What does the Confucius family want?" Zheng Chang frowned as he watched the carts of books pull into the Confucius house.

Now the five surnames and seven hopes focus on the Confucius and Mo houses. Kong Yingda's strange behavior of buying a lot of books naturally attracted his attention.

"It's said that the Kong family is in a hurry to seek medical treatment this time. As long as it is a Book of hundreds of schools, they will not let go. Now the Kong family has bought at least thousands of books." Zheng Bodao, although the price of books has dropped sharply since the birth of block printing, thousands of books, 20 copies each, which is close to tens of thousands, is also an appalling number.

"It's just a few broken books. What big waves can you turn over?" Zheng Chang sneered.

"Young master, it's inevitable, and according to the gossip of villains, the Confucius government also bought a lot of paper and ink. As for the purpose, we still don't know." Zheng Bo worried.

"The scholar rebelled and failed in three years. Relying on a few books and a few pieces of paper is like fighting against five surnames and seven hopes. It's just wishful thinking." Zheng Chang said proudly. He wanted to see what tricks the Kong family played in the end.

After five days, the Kong family finally swept away all the books that could be bought on the market. Looking at the mountains of books in the Confucius house, the whole Confucius house was filled with a strong smell of ink. Kong Yingda couldn't help but show a knowing smile. The Kong family is a family of scholars, but they have special feelings for the smell of books.

"Second uncle, has the site selection of the library been completed?" Kong Yingda looked aside and asked Kong Desheng.

Kong Desheng took a deep breath, showed a look of enjoyment and said, "don't worry, I'll do it myself. I've already prepared the bookshelf."

In addition to keeping the books secret, another reason why Confucius first brought them back to Confucius was that the bookshelves in the library were not completed.

"OK! Now Chang'an City has been bustling, and it's not easy for the Confucius house to keep them waiting." Kong Yingda said proudly.

Kong Desheng nodded and said, "after tomorrow, the world will know that the Confucius house is the best Library in the world."

"Thank you, second uncle!" Kong Yingda said solemnly.

Kong Yingda, as a sacrifice to the Imperial College, is naturally inconvenient to run the library, and Kong Desheng is the most suitable candidate.

With Kong Desheng's order, carts of books were pulled to the prepared shops by night.

The next day, just after daybreak, the major shops on Zhuque Street began to open, but the door of one shop in the center was closed and the plaque was covered with red silk. The surrounding merchants were not surprised. Shops were transferred and opened every year, and it is common for new stores to open.

"This is it?" Zheng Chang frowned as he stood in front of the unopened shop.

Zheng Bo nodded and said, "go back, young master. The books that the Kong family said they bought last night were sent here overnight."

Although the actions of the Confucius house were hidden, they could not be concealed. They had been staring at the Zheng family of the Confucius house. When they learned that there was a change in the Confucius family, they came to investigate at the first time.

At this moment, the door of the shop opened with a squeak. Kong Desheng proudly came out and commanded the servants of the Confucius house to tidy up and down. Through the door, Zheng Chang could clearly see rows of bookshelves.

"Young master, what shall we do?" asked Zheng Bo.

Zheng Changran smiled and said, "the descendants of Kong Sheng are doing business in the street. For such grand things, my younger generation naturally wants to come forward and offer a congratulatory gift."

Zheng Chang was very proud. He didn't expect that the Confucius family would have lost its way and went into business in the street. If it was spread, the millennial reputation of the Confucius family would be destroyed. At that time, if the Confucius family wanted to promote primary school again, countless people would abandon the Confucius family without his help.

"The younger generation Zheng Chang paid a visit to elder Kong. When the elder came to Chang'an, he once stayed at the Zheng's house. The younger generation was lucky to witness the elder's style!" Zheng Chang stepped down from the carriage and walked face-to-face to Kong Desheng.

"It's you, the younger generation!" Kong Desheng raised his eyebrows when he saw Zheng Chang outside the store. Zheng Chang was the legitimate son of the Zheng family. At that time, Kong Desheng had some impressions of Zheng. However, Kong Desheng didn't think it was him who came to Chang'an city. I'm afraid Zheng Chang was the one who attacked the Kong family behind these days.

"The younger generation suddenly heard that elder Kong bought an estate in Zhuque street. How dare he be rude and send a congratulatory gift." Zheng open said respectfully.

Kong Desheng looked at Zheng Chang and couldn't help comparing with Mohist Zi. Although Mohist Zi didn't pay for Confucianism, he acted openly and aboveboard, which made people can't afford any disgust. In front of Zheng open, he acted extremely sinister and disgusting.

"I don't need gifts. The Kong family doesn't charge money for this business!" Kong Desheng said faintly.

"Don't take money? Master Kong laughed again. There is no business without money in this world. Master Kong can make the younger generation open their eyes!" Zheng Chang laughed at his speech.

Kong Desheng said calmly, "in that case, you'll wait and see!"

Zheng Chang sneered and raised his eyebrows slightly. Zheng Bo immediately left. Soon, Kong Sheng's business soon spread all over Zhuque street, and more and more people came.
