    After hearing the scolding from the elder, the disciple thought for a while and asked: "How many taels should we sell? If we can sell a volume for one tael of silver, the disciples already feel that something is wrong. If it is any higher, no one will want it  ¡­¡±

    Elder Yu said angrily: "Idiot! Can the "Tourist Manual" be sold like this? It's only about ten pages. Even if you sell it for one tael of silver, I'm afraid you won't be able to sell many copies. You still want to sell two thousand copies.  ? Do you really think that other people¡¯s money is blown by the strong wind?¡±

    The disciple looked frightened: "Please give me some advice, elder."

    Elder Yu said patiently: "It must be sold, but it is not sold like this. I was just thinking about it. With such a big place in front of Wulingyuan, and with tables, chairs and benches arranged, how many people can be accommodated to come in and watch the battle?"

    The disciple counted them on his fingers, frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's only fifteen or six hundred people? Any more will be difficult."

    Elder Yu nodded and said: "That's it. We will send out disciples to block the mountain roads everywhere. Anyone who wants to go into the mountain to watch the battle can buy a book and use the manual to enter the mountain. It will cost you ten taels of silver, no matter the price.  !¡±

    The price of the manual increased tenfold, which immediately made the disciple feel dizzy: "I'm afraid no one will buy it"

    Elder Yu waved his hand and said decisively: "If you don't buy it, you won't be allowed into the mountain. See if anyone buys it!"

    The disciple understood and expressed admiration: "Elder Yu really has a good way of making money, why didn't I think of that?"

    Elder Yu sneered and said, "Learn more!"

    After thinking about it for a while, the disciple asked again: "Where are the people in the various pavilions? Do they also sell like this?"

    Elder Yu said with some heartache: "We are all fellow Taoists, so all the halls and pavilions should distribute the manuals for free Oh, more than four thousand taels"

    "Then, how can you copy more than two thousand manuals?"

    Elder Yu said: "With these ten taels of silver as a foundation, we can now talk to the Zongsheng Hall about the re-engraving."

    Zhao Ran once again received the flying talisman from Elder Yu late at night. After some bargaining, he won the order at the price of five taels of silver per volume. Because Chongde Hall did not have the money to deliver it for the time being, the two parties agreed to try it out.  The sword fight will be followed by the delivery.

    Because of this batch of orders, the editorial department of "Junshan Notes" in the Zongsheng Hall started replicating the altar overnight. Volumes of freshly released "Observation Manuals" were spit out from the opening of the altar, and then packed and tied up, and used as flying talismans.  Directly sent to Chongde Hall.

    At the end of Yin Shi, two thousand copies of the "War Watching Manual" were delivered to Elder Yu.

    Elder Yu stroked the brand new manual and silently calculated the benefits in his heart.  Two thousand copies of the "Observer's Manual", with 400 given out for free, can be sold to 1,600 copies - of course, if all are sold, the scene will be very crowded, but crowding is also a matter of casual cultivators.  Not on the heads of my fellow officials.

    1,600 copies can be sold for 16,000 taels of silver. In this case, a net profit of 6,000 taels can be made.

    He felt very distressed when he thought of having to pay ten thousand taels for engraving, but Zhao Zhiran was right. The cost of paper, the cost of working overnight, the cost of gathering spirit talismans, and the cost of rushing to transport flying talismans all cost money.  Taking ten thousand taels is roughly reasonable.

    Elder Yu is very experienced. He did the math and estimated that the Zongsheng Hall can earn five thousand taels, which is almost equal to half of the Chongde Hall.  When he thought of this, he became a little angry, and turned around and ordered: "Raise the price, a manual will sell for fifteen taels!"

    He then added: "Take out the flying talismans, low-level spiritual materials, etc. that are temporarily unused in our library and sell them on site!"

    Before dawn, all the monks in Chongde Hall went out together to clear the place.

    Many casual cultivators arrived at the Wulingyuan enclosure early. When they heard that Chongde Hall was going to force-sell the "War Watching Manual", they couldn't help but make a fuss.  But the group of monks who came to the enclosure in advance were basically low-level monks. They couldn't twist the big and thick leg of Chongde Hall, so they had to bow their heads and submit. Those who had money paid for it on the spot, and those who had no money or were reluctant to pay for it  , then left Wulingyuan obediently, complaining and cursing.

    After clearing the place, the monks of Chongde Hall immediately got busy according to the division of labor in advance.  Some are responsible for waiting at the scene to receive distinguished guests, some are responsible for arranging and guiding, and some are responsible for maintaining order, while the backbone of the mages and archmage realms are sent out to set up checkpoints on various roads into the mountain.  Use force to ensure the smooth sales of the "War Watching Manual" and prevent young people from fooling around, infiltrating, or even trying to force their way in.

    As expected by the elders, the latest news from all over the place had been reported continuously since 10 o'clock. By daylight, Chongde Hall had captured more than 20 people who had sneaked into the mountain, and more than 50 people who were trying to sneak into the mountain were caught on the spot.  In addition, he also suppressed more than ten incidents of forced entry into the mountain gate, and achieved a major victory of injuring eight enemies and capturing 27 enemies.As a result of the battle, he only suffered minor injuries to three people, and at the same time, he was charged more than a thousand taels of various fines and late fees, thus establishing the prestigious reputation of Chongde Hall!

    After receiving these battle reports, Elder Yu snorted coldly in his nostrils and said to Wu Yunshao, the guardian of Guansheng Pavilion beside him: "A bunch of young men dare to touch my tiger tassel. Do they really think that there is no one in Chongde Pavilion?"

    When we arrived in Dechen, almost all the Xuanmen Zongzong members from all the halls and pavilions had arrived, and more than 400 seats were filled. The elders of the Chongde Hall came forward and greeted their familiar colleagues warmly, showing their Taoist sects.  The passion of a family.

    But that is not what Elder Yu cares about. He walks around the field like a butterfly, chatting with the senior cultivators, but his eyes glance to the outside from time to time, estimating the number of people who spend money to buy the "Observation Manual".

    "Two thousand five hundred taels"

    "Three thousand five hundred taels? Is it three thousand seven hundred?"

    "Five thousand taelseight thousand taels?"

    "Ten thousand taels! Very good, I got my money back!"

    "Fifteen thousand taels"

    While they were counting, the deacon disciple rushed over panting: "Elder, I'm afraid we won't be able to squeeze in anymore"

    Elder Yu nodded and reprimanded: "Calm down!" He walked around, gritted his teeth and pointed to the northeast: "Let them go to the archway! Clear that area! Where are the six archways, what are they doing with them empty?"

    The disciple hesitated and said: "Elder, this is our mountain gate archway. I'm afraid it won't be appropriate to sit on it"

    Elder Yu glared and said: "What's inappropriate? Don't worry about those false names! This is a war that the world is watching, you know? Let people see it as much as possible, otherwise people will travel thousands of miles to come here but not be able to witness the war. We respect morality  The hotel is going to be scolded!"

    Seeing that the disciple was still a little reluctant, Elder Yu flew up and kicked him on the butt: "Hurry up and make arrangements. Remember, the view from the archway is good. If you want to go up, you will get an extra ten taels! This is more than a thousand taels of silver.  You losers, you don¡¯t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are when you¡¯re not a family!¡±
