Sanwei Bookstore has become famous.

Before closing time that day, one thousand copies of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" were almost sold out, setting a new book sales record.

"The second part of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", do you want to know what the story is about?"

“New store opened, great price!”

"The first 100 buyers of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" will receive a pound of high-quality white paper!"

“If you’re passing by, don’t miss it!”

…

Xinhua Bookstore has been silent in Chang'an City for more than a month, and finally showed its sharp teeth.

"This...these are all "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?"

Inside the Xinhua Bookstore, two hills of books are placed in the most conspicuous position. Next to it is a huge signboard that reads "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", with the usual big characters of Qian Yiben.

"Is it really true that money is always the same?"

The first person to enter Xinhua Bookstore was a somewhat downtrodden-looking scholar named Dongfang Ping. This man spent the whole day at Sanwei Bookstore, but he was obviously short of money...

He had no choice but to stand and read in Sanwei Bookstore with a book for a whole day, until the waiter took the first part of the Three Kingdoms, which he had just finished reading, from his hands.

Dongfang Ping left the bookstore in despair, but he didn't expect to see that the Xinhua Bookstore opposite also sold it.

"Our store's rules have always been to be honest with everyone."

"Give...give me a copy!" Dongfang Ping picked up a copy of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" with excitement on his face.

As a down-and-out scholar, Dongfang Ping's family had better living conditions than ordinary people, but he couldn't resist his love of books. Basically, he sold the houses and fields left by his ancestors, and what he got in exchange was just a book that he couldn't

Books used as food can only be rented in a courtyard now.

"Sir, if you buy the first and second parts together, you can get a 20% discount, only for the first 100 customers."

"The second volume is also available? And it's 20% off?" Dongfang Ping's face suddenly turned red, "You... you wait a moment, I will go home to get the money right away, I... I want two copies!"

After saying that, without waiting for the waiter's reply, Dongfang Ping rushed out of Xinhua Bookstore like the wind.

For the same book, Xinhua Bookstore's paper is better, the handwriting is clearer, and the price is only one-twelfth of that of Sanwei Bookstore. Dongfang Ping knows the price trend of books best.

If you don’t buy this book today, you will definitely regret it!

Although it is close to closing time, Xinhua Bookstore's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is always available for one copy, and the news of the latest second volume immediately spread among readers as quickly as possible.

However, the people who reacted fastest were not these scholars, but businessmen who had been doing business in the West Market all year round, especially those who came to Chang'an from other places and had to go back soon after purchasing goods.

"Brother Chen, can you lend me a hundred dollars urgently and return it to you tomorrow?"

Near Xinhua Bookstore, a businessman named Liu Wenfei suddenly borrowed money from a friend he had known for many years.

"Huh? Brother Liu Xian, isn't the business in your shop very good? Lingnan inkstones are still sold very well in Chang'an City? Could it be that something happened at home?"

The person who spoke was the shopkeeper of a silk shop, his name was Chen Jin. He had been working in the West Market for more than ten years and was quite wealthy.

"No, my family is fine and my business is fine. I just need something urgently."

"Okay, just wait a moment and I'll call the cashier to get it to you right away!"

One hundred guan is not a lot of money, and based on Chen Jin's understanding of Liu Wenfei, he is not worried that the money will be wasted.

When doing business, it is normal to ask for help from others from time to time. If you don't borrow money yourself, you will get a bad reputation.

Soon, Liu Wenfei, who had borrowed the money, trotted into Xinhua Bookstore.

"Shopkeeper, give me a hundred copies of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!"

…

In the backyard of Sanwei Bookstore, shopkeeper Zheng was calculating today's sales with a smile on his face. However, this good mood did not last long, and was ruined by Ah San who rushed in without even knocking on the door.

"Shopkeeper, it's not good! It's not good!"

Ah San's face turned pale and he ran to Shopkeeper Zheng in a panic.

"Ah San, since you have been with me for many years, I will give you a chance to explain. If you do this again next time, don't blame me."

Shopkeeper Zheng was flipping through the account book with one hand, and the other hand was still wandering around the concubine's body. But Ah San barged in so recklessly, it was strange that he couldn't be angry.

"Shopkeeper Zheng, something big happened!"

At this time, Ah San could no longer care about Shopkeeper Zheng's unkind expression.

"What happened?"

"Then Xinhua Bookstore, they... they also sell "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!"

Shopkeeper Zheng's heart, which had just been raised by Ah San, finally dropped again. After taking a breath, he said, "Ah San, our Sanwei Bookstore is the first to sell the Three Kingdoms. Even if Xinhua Bookstore follows suit, it is nothing more than picking on others. They

If you want to be famous but not famous, if you want to be famous but not knowledgeable, what is there to be afraid of?"

"No, shopkeeper, that's not the case. Xinhua Bookstore, they not only sell the first volume of the Three Kingdoms, but also the second volume!" Ah San said with a sad face.

"Part 2?"

Shopkeeper Zheng felt a thump in his heart. He had always felt a little uneasy about Xinhua Bookstore.

No one with a sound mind would open a bookstore opposite Sanwei Bookstore, but Xinhua Bookstore is not only located opposite, but the bookstore covers an area even larger than Sanwei Bookstore.

This is hard to understand.

After so many years in business, Shopkeeper Zheng has discovered that whenever he encounters something he cannot understand, there is often a story behind it.

From the time Xinhua Bookstore opened until now, shopkeeper Zheng has been paying attention to it. Seeing that there is really no problem, his worried heart is finally relieved.

But I didn't expect...

"How come they have a second part of Three Kingdoms?"

"I don't know. Shopkeeper, the most troublesome thing is not this, the most troublesome thing is... is..."

Ah San was so sad that she almost burst into tears.

"If you continue to act like a mother-in-law, I'm going to get really angry! Even if Sanwei Bookstore really has a second part of the Three Kingdoms, it doesn't matter. We have made thousands of dollars today just from this first part. We will be demolished in the future.

Just recruit. Ah San, I'm not telling you, when you come out to learn to do business, you must have a long-term vision. You can't be blinded by the things in front of you, and you can't mess up your sense of proportion because of trivial things. This is to make a difference.

It’s a big deal.”

Shopkeeper Zheng felt relieved when he heard that Asan said that Xinhua Bookstore had the second volume of Three Kingdoms for sale.

In its opinion, this is probably the trump card of Xinhua Bookstore.

Although it is very powerful and very lethal, it is not to the extent that I cannot accept it.

"No, the shopkeeper, Xinhua Bookstore, they... they only sell one copy of Three Kingdoms for the same price!"
