Chapter 847

At this time.

Li Ke returned from Jiangnan.

"Your Majesty, the results of selling the books this time are very fruitful. During my stay in Jin Ling, I contacted ten major book agents.

Because the quality of the books is high and many Tang people have never seen such good books, the sales have been exceptionally hot.

Unsurprisingly, your novels, Your Majesty, sold the best!

As soon as they were put out, they were snatched up!"

Qin Mu smiled slightly.

His books are likely to set off another fanatical trend in the Tang Dynasty.

What was an unintentional creation at the time has now become the sharp arrowhead of Great Qin's cultural output.

"I will take some time to write a few more. The world of the overbearing CEO is just a very ordinary world.

There are more wondrous worlds stored in my mind."

Li Ke's admiration for Qin Mu grew even deeper.

What kind of person is the Emperor, really?

How could he think of so many strange and peculiar things?

Now, the more he is in contact, the more he finds he cannot see through him.

"Your Majesty, before your subject returned, a strange thing happened.

Zhangsun Wuji suddenly found your subject and wanted to buy a large batch of books from me at a low price, in a very huge quantity!

But your subject did not agree to lower the price for him."

Hmm?

Qin Mu keenly sensed that there must be something going on here.

Li Ke had already gone to Jiangnan to find book agents.

And with a stable business, the order quantity for one time should not be that large.

Suddenly such a large amount, could there be a conspiracy?

A pile of books, what kind of conspiracy could there be?

And it was Zhangsun Wuji who came to order the books personally, which seems somewhat unusual.

"Go back and notify the bookstore to print a batch of books with marks and sell them to Zhangsun Wuji."

"As you command!"

Li Ke bowed and said.

"Your Majesty is wise! How did your subject not think of a method like making marks?

In this way, no matter what conspiracy Zhangsun Wuji wants to play, he will have nowhere to hide! Haha!"

At this moment.

Yu Huatian returned.

"Your Majesty, your servant has news of Bianji."

"Let's see where he wants to sell the books?"

The appearance of Bianji means that something will happen soon.

At least in terms of being an enemy of Great Qin, he is very diligent.

"Your servant sent people to inquire in many ways, and finally heard a little news from Wang Xuance.

It turns out that after Bianji was defeated, he was captured by Wang Xuance. Originally, they intended to escort him back to Chang'an, but later, I don't know how Bianji deceived Xuanzang, causing Xuanzang to secretly let him go!"

Xuanzang!

Even if this guy became a Daoist priest, he still retained his saintly personality.

It can be considered that Bianji was not destined to die!

Qin Mu thought for a moment.

Bianji's defeat this time led to the loss of 100,000 troops for the Harsha Empire!

Handed over to the Emperor for disposal.

This charge is probably enough to get his head cut off.

It is very likely that he dare not return to the Harsha Empire.

Where will his next stop be?

The Indian subcontinent is so large, and there is no longer any place for him there.

Actually, thinking about it, Bianji is quite pitiful, being hunted wherever he goes. Now he is forced to leave the country again and head toward the world.

"Yu Huatian, there is no need to track Bianji's whereabouts anymore.

This time, I'm afraid he will run very far, not worth the effort."

Qin Mu guessed that Bianji would probably have to continue heading west.

Currently, Great Qin's reach has not yet extended into the Arabian Empire.

The Arabian Empire does not believe in Buddhism; if Bianji really goes there, he will have to change his faith first before he can possibly be accepted.

In short, it will not be as smooth as before.

"There is one thing, go and check it. See what conspiracy Zhangsun Wuji has been up to lately?"

"Your servant obeys the decree!"

Yu Huatian turned and went out again.

Coming and going in a hurry, showing his clean and decisive style of handling things.

Li Ke saw this and admired him greatly.

"Your Majesty, your subject now realizes that Great Qin is truly full of talent. Even a eunuch has such a steady demeanor of a great general!"

That is because Li Ke has not seen Yu Huatian take action; if he had, he would not have such a sigh.

Yu Huatian is a great general!

It's just that his area of expertise is not in military formations, but in investigation and assassination!

"Li Ke."

"Your subject is here!"

Li Ke quickly bowed and stood straight.

He could tell from the Emperor's tone that there was another important matter to be entrusted to him.

The Emperor's thinking is unique, and every task he entrusts can give him great inspiration...

Qin Mu looked down at Li Ke from above.

Li Ke's performance made Qin Mu very satisfied.

Originally, he just wanted him to sell books and help the Great Qin treasury earn some silver.

Now it seems that he can be entrusted with a more important task.

"Great Qin values the technology of ordinary artisans. However, the training of artisans is still the master-apprentice method, which is somewhat backward.

I order you to find the best artisans in every trade and compile their techniques into books!"

This is an extremely massive project.

Three hundred and sixty trades, each major industry needs to be subdivided. There are also many different technical schools.

If all these things are compiled into books, it is worth Li Ke's lifetime of struggle.

Li Ke was originally a Tang prince, and he had become indifferent to official positions and the like.

His goal was not to get promoted, nor to get rich.

He just wanted to use Great Qin's platform to prove that he is a capable person.

The Emperor entrusted such a huge project to him.

This is a very deep trust!

It moved Li Ke deeply.

"Your Majesty, your subject will definitely exhaust his efforts in this lifetime to handle the matter you entrusted well!

It's just... artisans like to keep their secrets, and wanting them to tell all their techniques will probably not be easy."

The bad habit of artisans keeping secrets has led to the loss of many technologies in history.

Speaking of it makes one sigh, and in the end, it can only be attributed to the selfishness of artisans.

In reality, it is not entirely like that.

Qin Mu enlightened Li Ke.
