At the entrance of the bookstore street, Gu Bei and his entourage looked at the bustling street, and at a cursory glance, they were crowded and disorganized, and when they took a closer look, most of them were scholars wearing Confucian robes, as well as the family members and maids who came to buy books for their sons and young ladies.

I saw these people rushing into one bookstore, and then rushing out into another.

Somewhere in a bookstore, the shopkeeper asked the guy with doubts: "It's really strange today, so many people enter the store, and they only look for a book called big... What a demon... What is the biography book, have you heard of this book? ”。 The bewildered guy scratched his head. What is the big demon and what is the legend?

"The shopkeeper, can you have "The Legend of the Great Sage and the Demon"?" At this time, a few scholars came in at the door and asked.

The shopkeeper shook his head blankly.

Several scholars hurried out to another bookstore.

A certain house ran into the bookstore panting and asked, "Shopkeeper, is there any "The Legend of the Great Sage and the Demon"?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his head, curiously pulled the family and asked, "This little brother, may I ask what this is..."

The housekeeper shook his head when he saw the shopkeeper, shook off the shopkeeper's hand, and walked out of the bookstore without paying attention.

After that, the bookstore came to ask several waves of "The Legend of the Great Sage and the Demon", but left disappointed.

The shopkeeper became more and more puzzled, and whispered: "It's strange, what kind of strange book is this, there are so many people who come to ask." I've been running a bookstore for many years, and this is the first time I've met it. ”

The more the shopkeeper thought about it, the more curious he became, and hurriedly sent the guys from the store out to inquire.

This scene took place in the major bookstores on Shufang Street.

When Bai Luoshi and the three of them walked to the door of Yashilin, they saw a long queue outside the bookstore.

There are men and women in the team, and if you look closely, you will find that there are more men than women, and most of the men are dressed as family members, and there are only a few scholars, and the women are all dressed as maids.

"Does anyone know Mu Xiaochen, go to his house to urge him!"

"I don't know how long this Mu Xiaochen's head is, this kind of drama can be written."

"Since the bear child in the family read this book, he has been arguing every day that he wants to learn from the great sage and make a big fuss at home..."

While the crowd was talking, Bai Luoshi and Gu Bei walked towards the store.

"What, didn't you see so many people queuing?"

"Hey, stop, who let you cut in line casually."

"We've been queuing for so long, and we haven't eaten a bite of water, so you guys hurry up and line up behind..."

They had only taken a few steps when voices of discontent could be heard behind them.

Bai Luoshi stood still, glanced at the audience with an indifferent expression, and everyone closed their mouths after seeing Bai Luoshi.

At this time, Chen Dongzhu ran out of the storefront, his face was full of red light, and hurriedly said: "Childe is here, please come in, ah, big... Miss, you're here too, please come in..."

After Bai Luoshi and the three walked into the store, there were bursts of chagrin from the crowd behind.

"Ahh I actually let the eldest lady stop, if my son-in-law knows, I will be miserable..."

"The eldest lady actually came in person..."

"Could it be that the eldest lady next to her is the uncle of the Bai family..."

"Miss, is that great? Don't you have to... Not... Hmm," a scholar from other places said indignantly, and was covered by his friend.

"Miss? Isn't it awesome? Do you dare to beat me in the street? Crowd A said.

"The eldest lady never bullies others, but if other noble children hear it, you will be miserable." Crowd B replied.

"Why is that?" Crowd C asked curiously.

"Because the Bai family is the leader of all the nobles in the Xia Kingdom, and the eldest lady is the first strange woman in Nanjing Yingtianfu." The crowd said triumphantly.

After Bai Luoshi and the three of them walked into the store, Chen Dongzhu respectfully asked the eldest lady to sit on the top seat, ordered people to watch the tea, and worriedly accompanied the last seat. Glancing at Gu Bei's location, Chen Dongzhu suddenly understood that this scholar was afraid that he was the uncle of the Bai family.

"Aunt Bai, the villain should be damned, I knew that it was Aunt Bai in person, the villain was beaten to death and didn't dare to talk to you about what to share, the villain is willing to print it for free, and the profits will be obtained, and the villain will not take a penny, just ask Aunt Bai to be angry with the villain." Chen Dongzhu hurriedly apologized to Gu Bei.

"No need, Proprietor Chen, the good five-five is five-five." Gu Bei saw that the proprietor Chen made amends, and he knew it in his heart, but he didn't expect the Bai family's influence to be so great, Bai Luoshi just came to the bookstore, and scared the proprietor like this.

Before Mr. Chen could say more, Gu Bei interrupted him and asked, "How is it, the sales are not bad, right?" ”

"It's not bad, it's crazy!" Asked about sales, Chen Dongzhu said with a smile on his face: "These people outside are all here to buy "The Legend of the Great Sage and the Demon". ”

Gu Bei nodded and asked, "In the next few volumes, can Yashilin still be printed?" ”

After Chen Dongzhu finished speaking, his smiling face turned into a sad face, and he thought that Gu Bei and Bai Luoshi came together, and it was estimated that they would not be published here by him. Listening to Gu Bei's question, Chen Dongzhu's eyes rolled, and he understood that Gu Bei still authorized them to publish in the bookstore, and his sad face magically turned into a happy smile and said: "Yes!" Absolutely! Just the next few volumes"

In the line of printing books, the picture is a fast, don't look at the fire they sell now, in three or five days, there will be piracy on the market, get the first-hand content, seize the opportunity, and eat meat.

As early as before the printing, Chen Dongzhu has already made a name for himself, the long queue at the door of the bookstore in the past two days has not dispersed until the night, Chen Dongzhu has opened the bookstore for so many years, and he has never sold books like this, counting the money until he is soft, and the first three volumes have increased the number of people, and they are printed day and night, and they are in short supply. It is estimated that only this "The Legend of the Great Sage and the Demon" can make a lot of money, and it can also increase the popularity of the bookstore.

As if he knew what he was thinking, Gu Bei took out seven volumes and handed them to Chen Dongzhu.

There is no copyright consciousness in this world, and if you want to make money by publishing books, you have to seize the opportunity, and once the pirated copies come out, you can't make much money.

Gu Bei didn't think that he would print "The Legend of the Great Sage and the Demon" at one time, and by the time other bookstores printed the first and second volumes, Yashilin had already finished printing the fourth and fifth volumes, and when others got four or five volumes, it would take a few days to typeset, print, and sell, and by that time, six or seven volumes of Yashilin would be freshly baked.

As long as Yashilin can maintain the speed of one or two volumes ahead, it will be able to seize most of the market, and by the time others print it, it will already be a plot that most people have seen.

Chen Dongzhu set the price of a volume at 500 Wen, which is a bit expensive compared to other novels on the market, but it is not much more expensive.

After more than 100 years of development, the printing technology of Xia Kingdom has been very developed, but the cost of printing books is still not low, and books are still not something that ordinary people can afford.

500 Wen is a huge amount of money for the poor people, but most of the people who can read and hyphenate are not poor people, in Nanjing Yingtianfu, a lot of rich people are willing to spend 500 Wen to buy a novel to read.

Therefore, as long as you seize the opportunity and seize the mentality of the rich to compare, you will not worry about sales.

Chen Dongzhu has received a lot of money in the past two days, looked at the other books, as if he saw the rolling wealth, and said with a smile: "Later, I will have people put up a sign at the door, write the sale time of the fourth volume, and then let people hurry up and print it..."

Soon Chen Dongzhu walked back and said, "The profits of these two days, do you want to settle them with Aunt Bai first?" ”

Gu Bei shook his head and said, "In the future, let's settle according to the volume." ”

Chen Dongzhu nodded and said, "Then according to what Aunt Bai said, it will be concluded in five days." ”

Chen Dongzhu sent the three of them out, Gu Bei walked out of Yashilin with a smile on his face, looking at the long queue at the door, he was still very satisfied. It's all money.

The three of them got on the carriage back to the house, Gu Bei was full of confidence, and began to talk: "Lady, be great for your husband, for your husband a flash of inspiration, money is rolling in." ”

“......”

"Qing'er, whatever you want to eat and buy in the future, my uncle will buy it for you."

"Uncle is so amazing!" Qing'er blinked her eyes and adored.

At this time, the carriage happened to stop at the gate of the mansion, Bai Luoshi couldn't look down on someone's villain's ambition, walked out of the carriage, and said lightly, "Qing'er." ”

"The servant is here."

"Remember, in the future, my uncle will have more than one hundred taels of silver, but you ask."

"Ahh Miss,..."Qing'er looked at Bai Luoshi pitifully.

"I don't care if you steal or rob, I just look at the result." After finishing speaking, Shi Shiran walked into the mansion and didn't look at Gu Bei's pleading eyes.

"Yes, miss." Qing'er looked at Gu Bei with a smile, patrolling up and down, and Dayou immediately turned into a little devil and searched Gu Bei's whole body.

"This little devil, little traitor." Looking at Qing'er, who was still worshipping and looking at him just now, her position changed so quickly, Gu Bei wailed in his heart.
