Chapter four hundred and fortieth small victory(1/2)

 In the next few days, the books distributed to the court to various prefectures and counties every day gradually decreased, and school supplies such as paper, pen, ink and inkstone also dropped significantly. This situation made people from the aristocratic families very happy.

The aristocratic family unanimously agreed that His Majesty Li Er can no longer hold on for long.

As a result, the people of the aristocratic families were even more crazy and paid for some ignorant people to queue up to buy them. Almost all the imperial examination books were taken down by the aristocratic families.

At the beginning, the aristocratic family was very cautious when they asked someone to buy it, for fear that His Majesty Li Er would catch the handle.

However, the aristocratic families soon discovered that it monopolized the purchase of books and various school supplies by poor students.

This makes poor students who cannot buy complain and even cause trouble from time to time.

The court could only spend most of its energy to appease these people, and did not care about the actions of the aristocratic families.

It is almost impossible to turn a blind eye, which makes the aristocratic family even more unscrupulous.

Under the crazy manipulation of the aristocratic families, the books distributed by the imperial court will be sold out every day as soon as they are on sale.

Just when the aristocratic family believed that His Majesty Li Er and Yang Fan could not hold on for long, the court "struggled" for more than ten days.

Soon, people from the aristocratic family made new discoveries.

According to the report from the spy, His Majesty Li Er not only secretly transported the money donated to build the school from the treasury, but even went to the Li family in Shaanxi.

And those who came back together were hundreds of carts of copper coins and brocade.

This money did not enter the treasury, but was sent directly to the royal workshop.

Li Er's slutty action immediately made the aristocratic family very angry, and even secretly scolded the emperor for being shameless.

Damn it, I didn’t expect that the imperial court’s treasury had no money, so His Majesty Li Er actually ran to the Li family in Longxi to borrow money!

The Li family in Longxi belongs to the family of five surnames and Qiwang, and is also the most top wealthy family in the Tang Dynasty.

Due to his kinship with the royal family, the Li family in Longxi was definitely the pioneer in supporting His Majesty Li Er to carry out reforms.

Once you get the strong support of the Li family in Longxi, it is not easy to get Li Er to return it in a short time.

At this time, the major families were a little hesitant and secretly wondered whether to hire people to continue buying.

You know, the Li family in Longxi is not a soft persimmon, and they can knead it at will.

Besides, it also costs them to hire people to buy them, not to mention that each book costs a lot.

Although a book is only five jin of money, the amount is too large.

Nowadays, several major families have successively purchased nearly millions of books, which is nearly five million in terms of cost.

If you add school supplies such as paper, pen, ink and inkstone, several major families have now invested nearly tens of millions of taxes.

Although several major families have attracted many families to operate together, such a large amount of money is not a small amount.

What's more, once Li Er can't force him to surrender to their aristocratic family, the books and school supplies they bought can only be smashed into their hands!

After everyone discussed it again, these families finally decided to continue buying.

Because the aristocratic families unanimously agreed that although the Li family in Longxi supported His Majesty Li Er, the Li family in Longxi would never dare to fight to the end with their families.

After all, it is no worse than the Li family in Longxi.

Besides, even if the Li family in Longxi wants to fight to the end, how can they beat their families by just the Li family in Longxi?

What's more, there are many small aristocratic families behind them. This time, their aristocratic families are bound to win!

In order to get the initiative back, the aristocratic family continued to hire people to buy books, even more crazy.

But a few days later, His Majesty Li Er once again secretly left the palace and rushed to visit the founding fathers.

As a result, hundreds of cars of copper coins were sent directly to the workshop in the imperial city.

This operation almost made the people of the aristocratic family so angry that they almost vomited blood, but they were helpless.

Now that it is difficult to get rid of the tiger, it is time to retreat without any retreat. Only by holding on, these nobles can help you once, and how many times can you help His Majesty Li Er?

Although these nobles belong to His Majesty Li Er's founding fathers,

But the background of these people is still much worse than that of these aristocratic families that have been passed down for thousands of years.

Therefore, after a period of time, His Majesty Li Er directly announced in the court that the salaries of officials will be delayed this month.

Hearing this news, people from aristocratic families were directly autistic, and the emperor was so despicable and shameless!

As an emperor, he even wanted to see his face and directly deducted his ministers' salary. He was extremely shameless.

However, His Majesty Li Er's operation was obviously very effective, and the news officer Kong Yingda even announced it quickly.

In order to meet the enthusiasm of the people of the Tang Dynasty to study, three days later, the court will release 200,000 books at one time to meet the requirements.

As soon as the news department was abnormally increasing its sales, major families were not surprised but happy.

I felt even more certain in my heart, thinking that the court was just struggling to the death and had reached the end of my life!

Therefore, the families of all aristocratic families decided to destroy His Majesty Li Er's last glimmer of hope in one fell swoop, and even if they lost some money, they would be willing to do so.

After all, money is nothing to major families.

Even if you lose money, you will not hurt the muscles and bones of the aristocratic family.

As long as they can control the right to speak in culture and knowledge, they can quickly make the money back and even let the court know the power of their aristocratic family.

What's more, His Majesty Li Er has borrowed everything he can, and it is impossible to borrow money again.

Besides, His Majesty Li Er borrowed so much money, so what would he pay it back in the end? Who would have been willing to give the money to Li Er who has no reason for debt?

Even the emperor, no one would trust him anymore.

The News Department announced the release of 200,000 books three days later, and the whole situation became extremely strange.

Because the News Department decided that the real-name registration will no longer be carried out for this release, and all people from the Tang Dynasty can purchase it.

Such a strange behavior, it is obvious that the aristocratic family is ready to give up!

Such actions made the aristocratic family think that the court could no longer hold on!

Otherwise, the established principles will definitely not be easily changed.

Three days passed by, unlike the scene where the sales were crowded, the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion was extremely quiet at this time.

Apart from the sound of sucking tea from time to time, the people present did not say a word, obviously waiting for something.

Soon, a burst of rapid footsteps came, and the old eunuch Wang Huangui came to His Majesty Li Er panting. Before his breath was even, he quickly reported: "Your Majesty, all the 100,000 books and various school supplies sold in Chang'an City were stolen in just one hour."

"Although the news about the state roads has not yet been heard, according to Lao Nu's estimate, the situation should be similar."

His Majesty Li Er, who was sitting in the upper position, stood up happily and clapped his hands and said, "Okay! That's great!"

After a while, Li Er's mood gradually calmed down and he instructed Wang Huangui:

"You go to the Royal Workshop to watch me. Arrange the personnel in the past few days to print quickly. Remember, you will continue to produce for twelve hours."

"In a few days, I will let every student who wants to study have a set."

"Here!" Wang Huangui answered respectfully, then turned around and left.

But inadvertently, he looked at Yang Fan who was drinking tea leisurely.

During this period, Wang Huangui certainly knew that this was Yang Fan's work.

It was incredible that they played with the major families in the midst of applause!

It's not like a young man, it's simply an old fox.

After Wang Huangui left, His Majesty Li Er laughed and asked loudly: "Son-in-law, why are you only selling 200,000 copies today and still having 100,000 copies in stock? Why don't you sell them all at once?"

"The situation is very good now. Anyway, it is the aristocratic families who pay for it. These aristocratic families are so hateful that they will lose all their money."

"We deliberately stopped real-name registration just to cheat them. Now, as long as we sell, the aristocratic family will buy as much as we buy."

"These aristocratic families have money, and they don't make money without making money. Today I finally got proud. It's so cool. I wish I could empty all of these aristocratic families."

During this period, His Majesty Li Er has been pretending to be timid. Although he had a lot of money to earn, he was really a little depressed.

Since Yang Fan said that he could close the net, His Majesty Li Er finally didn't have to pretend anymore.

But I don’t know why Yang Fan disagreed with selling all the hundreds of thousands of copies in stock.

In his opinion, if selling more, the court can make more money, and will it be better for them to make a fortune?

The most important thing is that there are benefits from the top and bottom, and only the aristocratic families fill in it. Why not take advantage of the victory and sell all the books?

Yang Fan put down the teacup in his hand and smiled slightly, "The aristocratic family can be passed down for hundreds of thousands of years and will never fade, which shows that they are not stupid."

"The reason why we plotted against is that they are too proud and are usually overly high-minded, so they inevitably feel contemptuous."

"If we sell them all together, too much will backfire."

"According to my calculations, although these aristocratic families are as rich as countries, most of them are land deeds, and the working capital they have already consumed almost the same amount."

"If the aristocratic families want to use the fundamentals, these aristocratic families will hesitate."

"What's more, the aristocratic family has been investigating our reality and reality during this period. I believe some of them have begun to doubt it for so long."

"If the court sold it all, the aristocratic families would be more alert. They might not even buy this batch of books and school supplies, but instead sell the books in their hands at a low price..."

"You know, the books and school supplies that are accumulated in the hands of the aristocratic families have not been sold out in just a few years. We have earned so much, so it's OK."
