Chapter 2005 One bite
The big man with yellow horns and Chi Jiao sat looking at each other. The second volume of Travels to Nanming was placed on the table in front of them. There were several aliens standing beside them, making no sound of nibbling.
Huang Jiao asked: "Sir, only fifteen?"
Chek Kok shook his head and said: "It should be said that it is half. It is thirty-eight now, and this half is nineteen!"
A foreigner on the side said: "Since he said thirty, then just give him fifteen, why lose four coins."
"Stupid." Huang Jiao and Red Jiao glared at the guy at the same time.
Huang Jiao said: "From now on, do you understand, sir? He doesn't care about other things, he, he, he. We must not take it seriously. Like Brother Jianshi, everyone in front of us and everyone behind us calls him Master Tai Ling. For
What, the gift of reinvention, this is a rare opportunity, if I don’t seize it, I will have to live in the Yinshan Mountains for the rest of my life.”
Chek Kok said: "My lord brought a friend here today. Although I can't tell the difference, I still think it's extraordinary."
"Oh! What do you say?" Huang Jiao asked hurriedly.
"I can't even explain it, it just makes me feel very dangerous, more dangerous than adults!"
Huang Jiao nodded and said: "Well, your Louguan clan's sense of crisis has always been very effective, you can't go wrong!"
"Oh, but I can't judge the depth of your master!" Chek Kok said depressedly.
His talent can indeed judge the danger level of others. Especially when the other person wants to kill him, he will feel a chill in his heart. This is why he went to contact Xiaobai and summoned everyone after he couldn't sense it.
.
I never thought that the sensor would fail.
But it doesn’t really matter. When Xiaobai showed off his power, his heartbeat almost stopped!
Chijiao thought for a while and said: "However, the new Mr. Fei Yuzhe should not be as good as Mr. Beibaifa. It can only be said that Mr. Beibaifa can hide the murderous aura perfectly. Master Feiyuzhe should not be able to remove it from his body.
He must be angry."
"Hey, let's not worry too much about adults. I can't let this book go out easily."
"But we can't sell it directly." Red Kok frowned.
In Weiyangmen, each area has its own rules. They can sell at will on Yinshan Street, but they can't if they leave Yinshan Street. And nine out of ten people in Yinshan Street are illiterate, so Nanming Travels has no sales at all.
It's very popular outside, but you can only go through bookstores, and people are pinching your life!
"If they sell too much at one time, they will definitely not want it. They will probably join together to lower the price, or one family will buy it and others will copy it. They will still make money in vain."
After Huang Jiao finished speaking, Chi Jiao thought about it: "Actually, I have considered a way, which is to let them know and let them come to Yinshan Street to buy it, and at the same time monitor the flow of people in major bookstores to avoid falling into their hands!"
"No, it's just a question of how many hands to sell, and you have to sell it to them in batches at once, or... why not inform them to get together, and the one with the highest price will get it!"
"But what is the appropriate price?"
After Chi Jiao asked, all the foreigners sighed.
I feel like this book is more difficult than selling it to people!
That's just a one-time deal, this book is a long-term benefit.
Suddenly a foreigner said: "Why don't we just buy and sell at once, let the news out in advance, and start selling in three days or something, then they will naturally swarm in, and they will sell whatever they want that day, and they won't care about it after that."
Huang Kok and Chek Kok both want to do long-term business, but they really don't have the foundation.
After thinking for a while, Huang Jiao said: "It seems that this is the only way! Otherwise, when your Excellency comes out with the third volume, those bookstores must have had some tricks and lowered the price. By then, we will earn even less. In turn, Your Majesty
The book's reputation has become so great that every time we put it on sale, it will be extremely popular, and we set the price!"
Chek Kok nodded and said, "I'd like to see fifty coins."
This is already 12 coins more than the first one on the market. He thinks it is a lot. If it is higher, he thinks it will affect sales.
Huang Jiao didn't know much about this business, so he thought fifty was not bad, so he agreed.
The other alien races naturally didn't say anything.
So everyone started printing and spreading the news everywhere.
They did not beat gongs and drums to promote it, but stood outside the bookstore to see who would ask about the second part of Nanming Travels, and followed him to promote it when he left.
They also have no experience, so no one would believe them if they did this.
If you want it, why don't you just sell it to the bookstore? Or just sell it to me on the spot.
Fortunately, Huang Jiao responded quickly and immediately asked someone to print a few extra pages of the second volume as evidence to show to those book friends, thus gaining everyone's trust.
Suddenly, all parties became excited!
The young master who was the first to read Nanming's Travel Notes also received the news. When he heard that it was going to be sold on Yinshan Street, he hurried over without saying a word.
He didn't have the slightest doubt, because after all, it was written about Nan Ming. It is easy for illegal places like Yinshan Street to come into contact with such foreign books. If they want to go through formal channels, they are usually sold in the outer city. The outer city is very popular.
will be passed in.
Of course, there are not many people who can read in outer cities, and there are not many good articles that people can understand. They are not as popular as some craftsmen's books.
At first he thought there was one in the outer city, so he made a special trip to it. As a result, he visited dozens of bookstores, but all failed.
Only Yinshan Street was not visited.
It's really stupid now that I think about it.
He was not afraid of how dark Yinshan Street was, so he led a team of people and went there.
As a result, I arrived at Yinshan Street and found a bookstore that was obviously newly built. There were very few books in it, but this was not important. What was important was that a sign at the door said: "The second volume of Travels to the South Ming will be sold in five days."
"What? Five days?" The young man wanted to order the bookstore to be destroyed.
"As a store owner, can't the second volume of Nanming Travels be sold in advance?" the young master asked patiently.
I don’t know how many people have come here, but the store owner casually said, “It’s still being printed.”
"Then there should be several copies printed, right?" the young master asked unwillingly.
"The printing is quite good, but the pages are still scattered and haven't been sewn yet."
"It doesn't matter if there are loose pages. As long as there is a lot of pages, the money is a lot. But if it is a real second volume, I will pay ten times the price."
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Everyone you asked before has paid one hundred and eighty times. We, the shopkeepers, don't sell. We are honest. We won't charge you more for fifty yuan a piece. You should wait for five."
Come again, Queen of Heaven."
In fact, they really want to collect the money, but this will offend people!
If those bookstores knew that they were making huge profits from this, they would definitely try their best to target them. Don't think that these bookstores are really ordinary bookstores. In Dongming, no bookstore is simple. They are all powerful people in Wen Tao's family.
Supported by them, and nine out of ten books they sell come from Wen Tao Sect!
They can't do business for a long time, so they can only eat bite by bite in this way. Of course, they hope that adults will give them a few more copies so that they can eat more bites.
The young master tried to say anything to no avail, and in the end he had no choice but to leave.
After calculating the time, the young master went out early in the morning five days later. He thought he had arrived early, but before he reached Yinshan Street, he saw a long queue at the corner leading to Yinshan Street!
"No!" The young master frowned.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Kui Zhao? Are you here to buy books too?"
When the young master heard this, he turned around and saw that he was an acquaintance. He couldn't help but said depressedly: "I thought I came early!"
"Oh, I'm not like that. I heard that for those taking pictures in the front, I sent people to line up last night."
Chapter completed!
