Great Tang's Talented Little Landlord

Chapter 263



Ma Zhou\'s eyes to Li forget worry are more burning. Now he doesn\'t care that the romance of the Three Kingdoms is just a vernacular novel.

When Datang was praised by his teacher, Yan Liben nodded immediately, ran back to several cases, sat down at the table again and painted seriously.

Because only the line drawing and the small size of the illustrations were needed, Yan Liben drew the illustrations of the five chapters without much effort.

Li Qieyou also wrote the cover of the romance of the Three Kingdoms, and with the expectation of Yan Liben, he wrote a line of small characters: "illustration drawing Yan Liben"

These seven words made Ma Zhou\'s eyes hot. He wished he could transcribe the first five times now, so that Li forgot to worry and wrote on the cover: "transcribe Ma Bin Wang".

The romance of the Three Kingdoms has 100 words at a time. Master Sun Fang needs to pay the craftsman 200 Wen copper coins. The engraving of a page of manuscript is almost 400 Wen.

This thick stack of more than 100 pages of manuscripts, all carved, only the manual cost of the carving craftsman, will need 40000 copper coins, equivalent to 40 yuan.

For others, such as paper, ink and printing labor, sun Fang doesn\'t know how much it needs.

Although he got the engraving printing technology, he had never printed books. He could only roughly estimate the cost.

But Lord Sun Fang estimated silently in his heart, and the figures startled him.

According to his estimation, not counting the cost of engraving, but just the printing cost of paper and ink, the cost of the book Li forgets you wants to print will not be less than 100 Wen.

In other words, if Li Qieyou wants to print 1000 copies of the romance of the Three Kingdoms, the cost of the bookstore is almost 140 yuan, with an average of 140 copper coins per copy.

It\'s impossible for sun Fang to be careless about such a large expenditure.
