The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

"Brother Gao, Brother Lin." Fang Yun greeted the two people with a smile.

"Brother Fang!" Two people came over with several other scholars. Everyone looked at Fang Yun carefully with a kind smile.

When Fang Yun heard Gao Minghong call him this, he knew that he was showing others that the two had a good relationship. In fact, the two had only met once, but Fang Yun would not expose him. After all, this kind of thing was harmless.

"This is Fang Yun, Fang Shuangjia, who is well known to the whole country, so I won't introduce it much. Fang Yun, these are all classmates of Fuwen Academy. You will also come to Fuwen Academy in the future, and we will learn the Holy Way together in the future. Come, I Let me introduce you one by one, this is Wang Shoukui of Ting County, he was also a crime boss. "

Wang Shoukui waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Who doesn't know that Fang Yun is at the head of this case? Minghong, you are slandering me. Hello Fang Yun, I like your "Sui Mu", you are a good man!"

"Brother Wang, you're welcome." Fang Yun said with a smile.

Then, Gao Minghong introduced everyone to Fang Yun one by one.

After the introduction, Gao Minghong said: "You may have heard in Ji County that students from liberal arts colleges in various places can build their own 'social societies'. A few of us are the representatives of 'Lishan Society' in the state liberal arts academy. Lishan Society It is also the largest of the Han clan societies, with a history of hundreds of years. Many of its predecessors already hold high positions. The current Minister of Rites and the magistrate of Huang Ping Mansion were all members of the Lishan Society. "

"I have admired the name of Lishan Society for a long time." Fang Yun had heard of the name Lishan Society a long time ago and knew that the society here was of the same nature as the famous Fushe and Donglin Party in the Ming Dynasty. They were both literary societies, where scholars could study and learn. Groups that discussed politics later gradually had strong political goals, but they were said to be the embryonic form of political parties.

There were many literary societies in various parts of the Ten Kingdoms, and they were generally divided into poor families and noble families. The two were in conflict internally and cooperated externally.

Famous families, wealthy families, sainted families, Confucius families and other families are collectively referred to as noble families. Famous families can be regarded as either noble families or poor families. Those ordinary wealthy families and ordinary families belong to poor families.

Lishan Society is not only the largest literary society from a poor family in Fuwenyuan, but there is also a Lishan Society in Zhouwenyuan. That is the real Lishan Society. Lishanshe outside the Zhouwenyuan is actually a branch.

However, the power of a poor family is limited after all. The largest literary society in Jiangzhou is the "Yingshe", which gathers all the famous students in Jiangzhou and more than half of the students from famous families. In terms of financial resources, influence and literary status, it surpasses the Lishan Society. Many outstanding children from poor families will be invited by Ingsoc.

Gao Minghong said: "We very much hope that you will join Lishan Society, but don't worry, we will not force you, nor will we give you a time limit. It is up to you to decide when and whether to join Lishan Society. As for Yingshe, Some people want to invite you, but because Liu Zicheng strongly opposes it, Yingshe will not invite you, and other literary societies know that they are not qualified to invite you. "

"Thank you very much for Lishan Society's consideration. I will definitely consider it seriously. Although Yingshe is good, I am a member of a poor family after all." Fang Yun said.

Wang Shoukui on the side said in a low voice: "Don't say in front of General Fang Shouye that we are wooing you. You are his nephew, and you are actually half a nobleman. He should want you to join Yingshe."

"Uncle is uncle, I am me." Fang Yun said with a smile.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Fang Shouye had such a bad reputation that he even burned down the Liu family's pawnshop at his request. They didn't dare to provoke him.

Gao Minghong handed over a red invitation and said: "Dayuan Mansion holds two Beginning of Summer literary gatherings at noon and evening every year on the first day of April. Only performers can participate in the noon literary gathering, and occasionally there will be a few cultural gatherings. Famous young students can participate in the evening literary gathering. Only those with a civilized degree or higher can participate. Several scholars will also be invited, but they must be recommended by at least a Jinshi or an official of seventh grade or above. "

Fang Yun took the invitation and said, "Thank you, Brother Gao, and Lishan Society for the invitation. I will definitely attend the noon Beginning of Summer literary meeting in two days."

Fang Yun seemed to want to go on the surface, but in his heart he really didn't want to go because there were too many cultural events in Shengyuan Continent.

There are cultural gatherings during seasons, there are literary gatherings during holidays, there are literary gatherings when it rains or snowing, there are literary gatherings after the imperial examination, there are literary gatherings when a certain merchant promotes his products, there are literary gatherings when literati publish books, and some celebrities hold literary gatherings when they have nothing to do. There are cultural gatherings on the death anniversary of a semi-holy saint, birthdays, and even many people have cultural gatherings on their birthdays. It can be said that there are many kinds of celebrations.

Not many people know Fang Yun's address now, so he is very quiet. Otherwise, based on his reputation, the invitations he received these days would be sold by the pound.

"Okay. You still want to teach here, so we won't disturb you. After the Lixia literary meeting, we can have a drink and discuss poetry together. Of course, it's enough for us to drink when we meet you. We don't dare to discuss anything in front of you."

Everyone smiled kindly and did not refute. They were all sincerely convinced by Fang Luck's talent.

"After all, I'm just a child, and I'm younger than you, so don't try to taint me." Fang Yun finally joked, imitating Wang Shoukui's tone.

Everyone laughed again, feeling that this Fang Yun was neither arrogant nor arrogant, and would become a great asset in the future. Since their positions were not opposed and there was no conflict of interest, they naturally had to increase their efforts to make friends.

Fang escorted the scholars out, and after leaving the gate of the clan school, Gao Minghong coughed lightly and said: "The seniors of the Lishan Club of the Zhouwen Academy asked me to pass on a message to you. Liu Zicheng and his gang members are slandering the Yingshe. You, slandering your character, Lishan Host Several of your seniors also defended you. Unfortunately, the Liu family is powerful and your reputation in the state liberal arts college is very bad. Except for the Fang family who helped you, most people remained silent. Name, you must be careful."

Fang Yun had already known from Master Zhou that Liu Zicheng and Liu Zizhi were making secret moves, so he said, "Thank you, Brother Gao, I will be careful."

After seeing off all the scholars, Fang Yun returned to the teaching room and continued to read scriptures silently. At noon, he went to Sanwei Bookstore.

Liang Yuan had already taken 5,000 copies of "The Romance of the West Chamber" from the warehouse of the printing shop, along with leaflets and bookmarks, and placed them in the warehouse of the bookstore. He also took out some and put them on the bookshelf. However, there was no publicity at the moment and none of them had been sold.

Fang Yun had dinner with everyone at Sanwei Bookstore and then went home.

It was calm for two consecutive days, and soon the first day of April came, the time for the publication of "Holy Journal" and "Wenbao".

At dawn, there were dozens of people pushing pushcarts and standing in the Wenyuan Study Room on the east side of the Wenyuan. Some of these people were sent by bookstores, and some were book sellers who were preparing to buy "Holy Way" and "Wenbao" for sale.

Dayuan Mansion is so big, there are always people living in the surrounding areas who don’t want to travel far. "Holy Way" can be sold for five cents, "Wen Bao" plus one cent, and other books can be sold in January. Earn a lot too.

Compared with the past, those who buy books for bookstores have not changed, but 80% of the book sellers have changed.

More than twenty booksellers were dressed in uniform white clothes, with four powerful black regular script characters on the front and back of the clothes.

Sanwei Bookstore.

Next to Sanwei Bookstore, there is a line of small words: No. 17, Mingli Street, where the best novels in the world are located! At the end of the word, there is an artistic "square" trademark pattern, which is very special and impressive.

In addition to their neatly dressed clothes, these booksellers have a banner propped up on a bamboo pole on each trolley. On the left side of the banner, it says, "The Romance of the West Chamber, the masterpiece of Shengqian Shuangjia and Tonghui Fangyun, is now on sale." On the right side, it says "Master Jian Mei Gong Li invites you to read in advance the sacred text "The Pillow Story" of "The Holy Way" next month."

An advertisement written by Fang Yun hung under the banner.

"Sanwei Bookstore" is written eye-catchingly on both sides of the trolley. Half of the trolley is empty, and the other half contains bound volumes of "The Romance of the West Chamber" and "The Story of the Pillow". Each book has a bookmark.

Other booksellers and bookstore clerks were shocked when they saw this. What kind of trick is this? Advertising at the entrance of the Academy of Arts using the name of Academician Li, the Lord of the Academy? Either he is seeking death or he has a deep background.

A bookseller hurriedly walked up to a bookseller who was dressed up and asked, "Why are you dressed so strangely? Which bookstore is Sanwei Bookstore?"

The man said proudly: "Our Sanwei Bookstore is opened by Mr. Yunfang, the leader of the Shengqian Double-A Case. Behind it is not only the Dayuanfang family, but also the support of a bachelor. We have all signed a document contract with Sanwei Bookstore, The basic salary is one or two silver dollars per month, and the books are sold The more we buy, the higher the profit will be. Regardless of droughts and floods, we will earn more than before. In addition to the three days of sales of "Holy Way" and "Wenbao", how much can we earn in the future? newspaper, and you can also bring books from Sanwei Bookstore.”

"Is such a good thing? Can I go? My books are selling very well. I can earn seven to eight hundred yuan every month. I don't sell them every day."

"I have seen you selling books. If you find two more booksellers to collect three recommendation letters, you can come to our Sanwei Bookstore. Just wait a moment, I will write you a recommendation letter." With that, the man got out of the car. I took out a pen, paper and ink bottle and wrote a simple letter of recommendation.

"Thank you, brother." The man said and handed over a large coin, which was brass-colored and had "Ten Wen" written on it.

"You're welcome."

After a while, all the booksellers who were not wearing Sanwei Bookstore uniforms left, and even the clerks who worked for other bookstores came to inquire.

Just after six o'clock, a group of servants came and lined up behind the booksellers.

These servants were very surprised when they saw the banners and asked about the contents and prices of "The Romance of the West Chamber" and "The Story of the Pillow". The bookseller patiently answered the questions.

Fifty articles for a popular novel with more than 150 pages is not expensive.

"This book of yours is really Fang Shuangjia's? Our young lady likes his poems very much."

"Look at us, we spend so much money on new clothes and dare to sell books in front of the liberal arts college. How can we still be fake? No. 17 Mingli Street is the Sanwei Bookstore. If you don't believe it, you can check it out."

"Oh, that's right. I have the guarantee from University Scholar Li that I will buy a copy. I think our young lady will like it." A middle-aged woman said.

"I'll take a copy too. Our young master has been praising me for his plan."

In a short time, more than 20 copies were sold, and the buyers all bought it because of Fang Yun's literary name and the name of Li University Scholar.

At half past six, the Wenyuan bookstore was lined up with people coming to buy "Wen Dao" and "Wen Bao". More and more people saw the advertisements of those booksellers.

Seeing that Wenyuan Bookstore was about to start selling, ten bullock carts that had just come out of the printing shop were linked together and slowly passed by the door of Wenyuan Bookstore.

Banners and banners were erected on every bullock cart, making them extremely eye-catching.

A man stood on the bullock cart and shouted: "You will learn about love after watching "The West Chamber", and you will become a great scholar after watching "The Pillow"!"

Qidian's reading page often has problems. I have reported readers' feedback, but due to server issues, the technology cannot be improved. I'm sorry.

After reading the penultimate chapter and turning the page, it is often not the last chapter. Sometimes there is no table of contents, so you still need to make good use of the bookshelf. You can read the last chapter directly, or go to the home page of the book and click on the latest chapter under the introduction.

Thank you for your support.
