Chapter 137: International Comics (I)

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Is it a publishing house under two years old? ”

Despite knowing that the publishing house was too fresh, Keiko, the proprietress of the Kawakaku Bookstore, ordered 600 new books from the wholesaler. Don't look at the fact that there are only 600 copies, but the total market value is 400,000 yen, and the wholesale price is 280,000 yen.

It's unbelievable to think that the two girls who came to the store to sell new books were actually members of that publishing house. At the beginning of the business, their company was only seven or eight million yen, but now they want to distribute 12 million copies of comics to the world, and the printing cost is at least 1.5 billion yuan...... That's almost all the profit from the sale of "Steel".

All the assets were invested in the surname to issue 6 single books at a time, although it is only the rarest number of pages of the new book, but it is not a new company that has been developing for two years can afford. Judging from the sales of magazines, this may be a decent amount, but if someone does something in the back, Shangguo Publishing House will be completely overturned.

But it's because of their bold and bold advances that they have suddenly developed to this extent, isn't it?

Century year, the first day after New Year's Day.

In 1999, the Great Demon King did not come, and in 2000, the Millennium Worm did not appear, just as the "Mail Prophet" predicted that the earthlings had safely crossed the new century.

January 2 is the week of the week, early morning, Mimecho, corner shop.

Because it is located on the corner of the street, the view is particularly wide. It's still early, and the street entrance that should be busy with traffic is still deserted, and people passing by the shop windows are people who come out for morning exercises.

Not far from the window is the [β–³] shaped sidewalk, where there are flashing warnings and traffic lights, and few people will be hit by a car when crossing the road, and even if they are knocked down, they will be safe and sound due to the extremely slow speed.

Place new books on display and merchandise shelves at the same time.

Every time she sees that "Golden Strings", Keiko's heart always springs up inexplicably, even though she has long passed the age of a lively girl...... She regretted it.

From a professional point of view, it's just a girl's ** comic, and the plot is temporary: it's just that the girl gets a magic violin and plays a beautiful music that attracts various music princes who are obsessed with music.

That's what the story is like this up to now.

That's all...... But the images of the princes of music are so beautiful, their smiles and smiles are deeply rooted in their own minds. For that ordinary and lucky Chinese girl who got the magic violin - Xianghui. Keiko always thinks unconsciously, "It would be nice if a car suddenly flew up and killed it."

I know that the comics are not real, but I am attracted to the characters I have never met, and then I have a jealousy like a girl's generation - this inexplicable cuteness is entrenched in my heart, and I feel much younger when I come back to my senses.

Close your eyes and the impression of the princes of music has long been etched in my mind. A musical family, a violinist, and a ruthless prince - Zhiwei; musical genius, Wen Jing's younger brother, cellist - Liu An; A famous Taoist family, a heartthrob with noble temperament, elegant manners, and a gentle surname - Jing Tang ......

(Will there be a new handsome guy in the next episode?) οΌ‰

Although I am a little sorry for the author who carefully compiled the plot of the comic, sometimes I just forgot the plot in my mind, and only the faces of the handsome princes appeared. Their slender bodies, flat and smooth chests and abdomen, imagining their stripped Miaoman figure really makes Keiko want to stop.

Keiko looks like a girl with a spring and is seen by Mr. Kawakaku, but he is unexpectedly surprised by the suspicion that he is fascinated by the young people who often come to the store. It's quite interesting that my husband occasionally stalks, and there is a sense of sweet joy and a sense of guilt.

(But I just can't forget those handsome guys...... οΌ‰

Keiko nervously picked up the new book on the display case, took a breath, and decided to take one last look, before pushing out the door to open the store.

The cover of the new book glows with a round sheen under the light of the store, Keiko gently caresses the face of the cover character to feel the smooth touch, and the smiling faces of the princes like the summer sun seem to warm the cold air. They looked at themselves, revealing the skin of their necks that Keiko couldn't bear to look at. Before the book could be opened, the cover character radiated a radiant heat look at the person reading it, steaming so hot that Keiko's face, which was secretly aimed at them, was flushed.

"Hasn't the store manager opened yet?"

Still preparing, the door of the store that has not yet opened is ajar, and a beautiful young man leans into the store with a half-close body and waves his hand at Keiko in front of the booth. Keiko's sudden questioning lifted her spirits, and she quietly put down the comic book and smiled a friendly smile at the beautiful boy.

"I'll have to wait another two minutes."

Ryoko smiled awkwardly as she pushed the booth out of the store and quickly dusted the carpet. After cleaning up the broom, she unfastened the apron from her waist.

"It's time to open a store, what's going on there? What do you want to buy today? Keiko asked softly when she saw that he was still standing there after cleaning up.

Of course, this beautiful boy is not an employee of the store, in order to save the daily employment money, she is alone in the morning when there are few people, but this beautiful boy is a frequent customer in the store.

"Ahh The beautiful boy casually agreed twice, and turned his gaze to Keiko, I don't know if it's an illusion, the manager of the Kawakaku store seems to be much more beautiful than before. As soon as he opened his mouth, he said sincerely: "Miss store manager, you seem to have been a lot younger recently, are you in love?" ”

"Really? Eh, you, you think too much, Auntie has been married a long time ago. Even if you compliment me, I won't give you a discount. Having said that, Keiko actually had a happy heart for a long time.

The beautiful boy nodded, although Keiko never told her about her age, she definitely couldn't run in her thirties and forty. It's justβ€”

"I mean really, you're a lot younger, and your whole style has changed."

"Painting style?" Although she has been praised lately, this is the first time she has heard of such a statement.

"That's right, it's like a combination of hard-core painting style and realistic painting style, and suddenly changed to Q version and aesthetic painting style." It's like the aunt has become a girl, and the square body has become a young round body.

"Is that an exaggeration?" Keiko covered her mouth and smiled.

"That's pretty much it, in simple terms, you're smiling more than usual right now. The brow was no longer furrowed, the elongated face was retracted, and the cheeks suddenly became very elastic. Walk like a virgin and take small steps instead of big strides like before, and this kind of three-finger mouth covering your mouth with these three fingers you would never have done before......"

Click!

Keiko tapped his forehead lightly and said in the tone of an elder teaching a child, "People are small and big! ”

But looking at her like that, how can she be a little angry, how many years have the child been born, and now she is still regarded as a virgin or a virgin...... What's the matter~ The girl's rejuvenation is really happy.

As a result, Keiko, who fell into happiness, seemed to be a little younger at this moment.

"Were you reading this book just now?" The beautiful boy picked up the "Golden Strings" on the booth, "Anyway, I should be surprised that the store manager is the age to read this kind of comic." ”

"Can't you?" Keiko smiled softly. After being reminded by the beautiful boy, she suddenly realized that the secret to staying young and beautiful is not to get angry and not to frown at the account books and guests.

"Not really, but this manga should be the secret of the store manager's youth, right?" The beautiful boy was in the middle of his words, and when he saw Keiko reading comics outside the window just now, he vaguely found that she had a feeling of first love.

"Do you like it too? Like this comic work, when did you like it, and what do you like about it? Keiko continued to ask as if it was rare to find a soulmate.

The beautiful boy raised the manga in his hand and looked at it against the background of the sky.

Because when I first started reading the magazine, I made a conclusion because of my hard mouth.,It's not an exaggeration to say it's slander.,I didn't expect to sneak to buy comics from the vulgar.。 However, when I first saw this comic, I didn't think it was very good, so the boy felt a little ashamed of himself for jumping to conclusions because of his surname.

After a long time, he sighed and replied to the store manager's question-"I first saw it from a magazine that my classmates lent me, to be honest, I didn't think the comic "Strings" was very good at first, the character painting style was too slender to the limbs, abstract curly hair, flowing clothes, gorgeous patterns in the background, complex dots, at first glance, I thought, 'Ah, I absolutely can't accept this style, are you doing art or comics!'" ’

"I wanted to stop watching it, but after being recommended by my classmates several times in a row, the story slowly tasted it, and it wasn't until the end of the first volume of the story that I let out a sigh, 'There is no painting style in this world that is more commensurate with the story of Teacher Yueji-'Everything is interpreted by her with gorgeous lines in the air. Now that I think about it, how could the author of a manga who took such great pains to draw complex lines be worse than those who only drew simple lines? ”

"Under the guidance of the magic violin, the girl gradually fell in love with music, and changed from a person who had no pursuit to a ...... who had pursuits"

On sale, there was no long queue, there was only an aunt in front of the store, and a beautiful boy who talked about the new comics.

Keiko thought that the beautiful boy was just an ordinary favorite.,I wanted to take the opportunity of asking questions and talking to recommend this comic from the Shangguo Society to him.,I didn't expect his appreciation of the comics to be more thorough than that of himself, the comic store manager.。
