Chapter 185: Hot

On a new day, early in the morning, it began to drizzle in Shangjing, but fortunately, it was summer, and after the rain, the city became hazy and ethereal.

It's a weekend, so it stands to reason that not too many people will wake up too early.

After all, the dimness of a rainy day makes people want to lie in bed even more.

But today, many people rushed out of their homes early in the morning and rushed to the major bookstores.

Du Yuguang is an employee of the West Street Bookstore in Shangjing City, and his other work may be closed on weekends, but their bookstore still has to work normally on weekends.

After all, when everyone is idle, more people have time to buy books.

As usual, Xiao Du got up at half past six, washed up, and busily went out to have breakfast at the roadside stall.

Xiao Du is a rented house in Shangjing, and he is usually too lazy to cook by himself, and he may tinker at home at night when he has time, thinking about making a few good dishes to attract his little girlfriend.

But breakfast, where to sleep for a while is important.

After eating some fritters and drinking a bowl of millet porridge at the stall, Xiao Du rushed to the bus stop on No. 23 and waited for the bus to the West Street Bookstore.

The subway in Shangjing is too crowded, and although Xiao Duna's bookstore is not far from the exit of a certain subway, he still likes to take the bus.

On this day, Xiao Du sat in the back of the bus, and in front of him sat a young couple.

Xiao Du was also bored, so he leaned forward and listened to what the little couple was muttering.

"Xiaoli, on the big weekend, you bombed me up on the phone so early, just to buy a book with you."

Although the boy likes his girlfriend Xiaoli, he still complains a little.

"Of course. Oops, you don't know. Today is the first day of the book's release, and it is estimated that many people will buy it. If it's too late, you won't be able to grab it. ”

"Look, I originally wanted to leave at six o'clock, but you've been grinding until now, if you can't buy it, I won't pay attention to you next week."

Xiaoli's boyfriend had a helpless expression.

He has been dating Xiaoli for a few months, and in his opinion, Xiaoli's girl is also a well-informed girl, although she is beautiful, she is not pretentious. Usually don't play any petty tempers at all.

What's going on?

What kind of book is this Nima, which makes his girlfriend and himself unhappy.

With a full of questions, he asked Xiaoli many times.

But Xiaoli said that for the sake of unexpected surprises, it is necessary to keep the mystery first.

This made Xiaoli's boyfriend feel that the book was even more hateful.

Nima, it feels like there's a dog out there for your girlfriend.

Xiaoli's boyfriend felt bitter, but Du Yuguang in the back was excited, after all, he was in book sales, and their West Street Bookstore was also a large bookstore in the West District.

So for the first book. You can find it in almost every bookstore on West Street.

After thinking about it in his heart, Du Yuguang roughly guessed which book the girl was going to buy.

"Seeing that this girl is not very old, she is only eighteen or nineteen years old, I didn't expect to have such a high aesthetic taste. I like the deep and obscure text. ”

Xiao Du thought secretly in his heart, however, this made him realize. Xie Yu's "Shi Lin Collection", I'm afraid it's really going to be a big hit.

This book is recommended by the store manager. It is placed in the most conspicuous place on the bookshelf.

But on second thought, today must have been a busy day. Xiao Du felt a little helpless.

All the way forward, it was not long before we arrived at West Street Bookstore Station.

When Du Yuguang got off the bus, he was almost shocked by the scene in front of him and fell to the ground.

This Nima, the bookstore still has half an hour to open, and the people who buy books have a long queue in advance.

Such a magnificent scene, Xiao Du recalled, he hadn't seen it for several years.

That year, I saw a long line of readers, and it was when a top best-selling author in Xuanyuan released a new book.

The book's performance was very good, and in just one day, their West Street Bookstore sold more than 10,000 copies, and this was still on the basis of the bookstore's urgent stocking, and by 8 o'clock in the evening, there were still people who wanted to buy the book, but the supply was gone, so they had to do it.

The sales of that time Xiao Du is still vivid, after all, the results are absolutely terrifying.

No matter how big the West Street Bookstore is, it is only a regional bookstore, and many people who are far away from the West Street cannot come to West Street to buy books.

What's more, more than 10,000 copies are really a day's sales.

After the next day, sales were still booming.

"Wouldn't it, this "Collected Memories of the Historian" be compared to the best-selling writer?"

Du Yuguang still found it hard to believe.

After all, Xie Yu's books are relatively niche, to be honest, Du Yuguang himself doesn't like to read Xie Yu's books, what kind of thing is that, I can't read it.

What's more, in terms of the fame of the writer himself, Xie Yu's fame can't be compared with the previous best-selling author.

But after thinking about it, Xiao Du couldn't think of any other book that could attract so many readers on the day of its debut, which was completely absent.

Looking up at the long queue that had turned around, although Xiao Du could have a hunch that he would be very tired today, he was still quite happy when he thought that the magnificent scene that only appeared once in a few years was about to reappear, and a miracle was about to be born.

Du Yuguang squeezed through the crowd and took out the key to the bookstore from his pocket.

When they saw that the bookstore was about to open, the readers, who were originally just talking in groups of three or five, rushed towards the door of the bookstore.

Du Yuguang turned around while opening the door, and said with a smile to the customers who poured up:

"Don't worry, everyone, I know everyone is here for today's first release of "Shi Lin Relics".

"Don't worry, it's all there, the stock of this book in our bookstore is still very sufficient, besides, we have an agreement with Houde Publishing House, if the supply is insufficient, we can replenish it at any time."

Du Yuguang thinks that in this way, he can stabilize these enthusiastic and restless customers.

But who would have thought that it was okay if he didn't say this, and when Du Yuguang finished saying this, many people in the crowd who were originally just talking softly shouted loudly:

"What, you said we came here for Shi Lin or something, no, no, I'm not anyway, I'm here for "1988".

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, someone chimed in.

"That's right, what kind of "Shi Lin Collection" was written by Xie Yu, I have read this Xie Zhouyu's book, it is simply for the ancients to be dogs, and it is not a bullshit that we modern people criticize, so I will not read such an extreme book."

"Yes, where is the family surnamed Xie, do you know that little brother, I want to hand a kitchen knife to his house."

"Don't rub my little brother, we are all here for "1988", is "1988" ready? Let's go to the bookstore and buy it. ”

Xiaoli's boyfriend, who was standing next to Xiaoli, glanced at his girlfriend:

"You're here to buy 1988 too?"

Xiaoli is full of tsundere posture:

"Of course" (to be continued......
