Since I have nothing else to do, I might as well make some friends among talented people; having more friends means having more opportunities.
These are not hard to guess.
I only saw these countless students in Kyoto.
Su Yu sometimes felt a pang of regret.
Su Yu knew this, as far as the students were concerned.
The imperial examinations in spring are the most crucial moment in one's life.
If you can pass through successfully, then you have leaped over the dragon gate.
If that doesn't work, then they can only return to their hometown in disappointment.
Preparing for next year's provincial examination.
But this cycle of turning back and forth continued for one year and then three.
It will consume the youth of countless people.
There are also those stubborn and unruly individuals who, once they land...
He lingered in Kyoto and refused to return to his hometown.
From then on, some became decadent, while others became dissolute.
More often than not, they vanish without a trace.
However, after a short while, Su Yu stopped taking it to heart.
Ultimately, everyone has their own destiny.
His main concern was still the sale of books by his own bookstore.
With so many successful candidates in the imperial examinations in the capital, it will certainly benefit the sales of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
This is a sizable group, and it just so happens to be the target audience.
The melon seed aunties clearly can't rely on these people's propaganda.
If they were to publicly discuss the title page of this book...
Most intellectuals would probably look down on it.
Although, I may not actually dislike that book that much.
Wang Qinian came up with a brilliant idea in response.
He gave several students extra chapters to read for free.
Then, these students stayed in inns and taverns.
I often mentioned this book when talking with friends.
They were full of praise and wonder.
He praised its exceptionally beautiful writing style, which deeply resonated with him.
These are words of excessive praise.
This naturally attracted the keen interest of many talented men and beautiful women.
They agreed that they would definitely go and see the Danbo Bookstore on its opening day.
Su Yu smiled and once again praised Wang Qinian's clear mind.
They even came up with the idea of differentiating target audiences and marketing accordingly.
As for those talented scholars, a single glance was enough to call it a remarkable book.
Su Yu, however, was not surprised at all.
After all, he had great confidence in Cao Xueqin's masterpiece.
A cow, whether from Danzhou or somewhere else, was brought to Kyoto.
It will still be a cow.
As for Dream of the Red Chamber, it was already considered a masterpiece in the previous life.
Even after entering this world, he will still be a top expert!
In addition, there were some talented women who lived secluded in their chambers.
Those are unlikely to come out and see for themselves.
It would depend on the reputation of the book "Dream of the Red Chamber" to entice people to read it.
Two days later.
Danbo Bookstore officially opened.
As expected, Luodong Road was packed with people.
Even the nearby Imperial Academy experienced an unprecedented wave of truancy.
This angered the old teachers so much that they turned red in the face and threatened to call their parents.
Su Yu left the mansion with Ruoruo and Fan Sizhe.
The Fan family's carriage clattered along the road towards Luodong Road.
The morning sunlight cast long shadows on the carriage.
Glide forward between the stone slabs on the street.
It bounces up from time to time as the stone slab undulates slightly.
Su Yu leaned against the carriage, looking quite content.
Enjoy the warm sunlight and comfortable breeze that comes with each gust of wind that blows open the curtains.
He slightly opened his eyes and smiled.
It turned out that it was the chubby Versace who lifted the carriage curtain.
It would occasionally peek its head out.
The streets of Luodong were bustling with sedan chairs and people.
The chubby boy had a constant smile on his face, showing off his big white teeth.
He looked incredibly happy.
Versace pointed excitedly outside and laughed.
"Sir, look!"
"So many people!"
"That book, and our Danbo Bookstore, are going to be a hit!"
As he spoke, his eyes were seeing stars.
Looking out of the carriage, I saw heads everywhere on the road.
They all look like individual silver ingots.
Money, it's all money!
Looking at the chubby boy's appearance.
Su Yu shook her head, unable to suppress a smile.
He glanced again at the little girl beside him.
While Ruoruo is not as exaggerated as Versace.
But she had a beaming smile on her face.
As the carriage approached the bookstore, the sounds of chanting ceremonies could be heard from all sides.
Ruoruo hummed along softly, gently swaying her little head.
Mr. [Name]'s bookstore had so many people on its first day of opening.
She was extremely happy.
Finally, we arrived at our destination and got off the carriage.
Su Yu took Ruoruo and Fan Sizhe to her own bookstore.
Wang Qinian, with a smile on his face, immediately came over to greet him.
There were just too many people today, and his face was already dripping with sweat from the heat.
Wang Qinian wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled happily, and sighed.
"Ah, Brother Su."
"Today is our first day of business."
"This business is just too good."
"With so many people coming in, it's actually quite hot."
Su Yu smiled and went along with him.
"That's because..."
"Brother Wang, your preparations for the opening are excellent."
Wang Qinian was pleased with the praise.
The wrinkles around her eyes have increased even more.
Some nearby residents, for some reason, have not yet been affected by Wang Qinian's propaganda.
Those watching were also marveling at the sight.
I thought to myself, this is just a bookstore, how did it cause such a commotion?
Thinking this way, they also felt a sense of curiosity.
At that moment, they only exchanged a glance from afar, separated by the crowd.
The square facade is entirely covered with high-quality wood.
