The first day's madness was just the beginning.

On the second day, when the first volume of 5,000 copies of "A Chinese Ghost Story" arrived at the inn, more than 2,000 copies were sold in one morning.

In this era of barren entertainment culture, a story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" that has been interpreted countless times has definitely become the best talking point on the streets.

It's just a 30,000-word story, and I really don't need to read it, and the next day, someone blocked the door of Hongchen Inn and asked to read the next volume, no matter how much money was paid, I had to read the next volume.

"A Chinese Ghost Story, have you seen it?"

"What A Chinese Ghost Story? Ghost? ”

"Hell, you're big, earth hat, you don't even know such a wonderful story, let me tell you, there is a scholar named Ning Caichen, he went to Jinning City to ......"

……

"A Chinese Ghost Story, have you seen it?"

"Nonsense, Lao Tzu has already finished reading it, when will the next volume come out."

"I don't know, I'm anxious."

……

"A Chinese Ghost Story, have you seen it?"

"Look in my eyes."

"Why are your eyes dark?"

"I watched it yesterday, and after reading it, I was itching, and I went to smash the door of the Hongchen inn and was beaten by the fat cook."

"Ouch, thank you for your hard work, but did you hear the next content?"

"I found out, there was a very beautiful maid, and when she saw that I was pitiful, she told me."

"What! Really fake! Oh my God, your punch is worth it, I'm going to take a punch too......"

……

The city is full of wind and rain, and at sunrise, everyone is talking about A Chinese Ghost Story. Those who bought the books. Telling stories to the people around him. And those who didn't buy a book, after listening to the story, some of them were itching, and they bought one by themselves, and more were looking forward to the arrival of the next one, as for this one, they didn't buy it, anyway, everyone else has told it.

At this time, the Hongchen inn was inside. Song Kai frowned at the book "A Chinese Ghost Story" that still had more than a thousand volumes left.

Qingniang also held her chin with both hands, with a sad face.

"Young master, why do you say there are so many left?" Qingniang puffed out her mouth, "Is our story not good?" ”

"Absolutely not, it should be the reason why it is too good-looking," Song Kai sighed, "The key is that there are too many pirates." ”

"Piracy?" Qing Niang's big eyes stared at Song Kai suspiciously.

"Yes, word of mouth, borrowing from each other. Everyone knows the contents of this first volume, so naturally not many people will come to buy it again. In the future, there will definitely be people who will buy it back and collect it, but the sales will definitely not be as hot as yesterday. After Song Kai finished speaking, he sighed, it seems that he has thought simply, relying solely on this book, although he also makes money, if he wants to make a lot of money, it is impossible.

Qing Niang nodded, "That's right." ”

At this time, the inn in front of him called again and shouted.

"The shopkeeper is not there! We wanted to meet Song Lang, so we asked when the next volume would come out! ”

"yes, yes, where is he hiding? It's so damnable that it doesn't have such an appetizing. ”

"I haven't been ...... since last night I didn't eat, so I waited for the content of the next volume, please Song Lang, save me, tell me the content of the next volume. ”

It was noisy and bustling, and if they couldn't see Song Kai, these people stayed at the Hongchen Inn, ate and played in the Hongchen Inn, hoping to be the first to see Song Kai.

In the backyard, Song Kai sighed, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he laughed, and said, "I thought of another way." ”

Qing Niang tilted her head, "Young master, tell me quickly, is there a way to make money and cheat people again." ”

"Go, get rid of that pit man," Song Kai glanced at the young lady, and then said with a smile: "We can take the opportunity to sell the membership card of our inn." ”

Thinking of this, Song Kai jumped up and said, "Yes, just do it, go." ”

With that, Song Kai left the guest room and ran towards the front hall.

As soon as I entered the door of the living room in front of me, a group of people surrounded me.

"When will Song Lang's next volume be published?"

"You wrote the story? Or did you hear it? ”

"You are Song Kai? You're stealing my ideas, this story is what I want. ”

"Song Lang, I haven't eaten for a day, please, let me know the content of the next volume."

"Song Lang! Whining! My grandfather is dying! …… Before he was temporary, he wanted you to finish telling him the story, this is his old man's last wish, you must satisfy him! ”

As soon as this voice came out, sure enough, everyone was silent, and they all looked at a man in a hat who was kneeling on the ground.

"Song Lang, please, fulfill his old man's last wish." The boy in the hat had teary eyes and a plaster on his face.

"Huh? Isn't this person Jiang Gongzi? ”

"Yes, Jiang Gongzi and his grandfather, I still saw him yesterday, eating big chicken legs, carrying a knife on his back, and his health is fine, why can't he do it overnight?"

"It's really Jiang Gongzi, I just met Jiang Lao in the morning, and I ate eight big buns with meat fillings for breakfast."

The man in the hat on the ground stood up suddenly, slammed the plaster off his face, and said hatefully: "It's really bad for people to be famous, and they are recognized when they dress like this." ”

"Damn, it's really fake!"

Everyone laughed.

Song Kai sighed helplessly, jumped on a wooden table, and said, "Everyone be quiet, listen to me, the second volume is already in print, it's just ...... Listen to me, you also know how difficult it is to print a book, so the number is limited, and there will only be more than 100 copies tomorrow, so I'm sorry for this. ”

"There's mine, there's mine, I'll come first!"

"I'm here before you!"

"I'll pay 150 to buy a copy!"

There was another quarrel below.

Song Kai waved his hand and said: "Don't make trouble, we Hongchen Inn do things, we have always been fair, we will definitely not raise the price, everyone don't fight, one hundred is one hundred Wen, even if someone pays ten yuan, I won't sell it." ”

"Good!"

"That's what business has to be."

"But I came first, and I had to buy it."

Song Kai cleared his throat again and said, "That's the case." Due to the fact that there are not many skilled. So we decided at the inn. Priority for members of our inn, early tomorrow morning, anyone who is a member of this inn can come to buy a new volume of A Chinese Ghost Story, oh, there is also a nine-percent discount, that is, ninety dollars on it. ”

"What member?"

"Can you still get a discount?"

"What's going on? Do members ask for money? ”

Cuilan on the side was already shouting with a pig-like throat, "You don't need money to apply for membership!" As long as you pay five taels of gold in advance. You can become a member, if you pay 20 taels of gold at one time, you can become a supreme member, in addition to the priority and discount of buying books, members can enjoy preferential services in Hongchen Inn for dinner, accommodation, and fun! Eating, buying books, entertainment, just need to keep accounts at the counter, and everything is in order! ”

Song Kai nodded at Cuilan with satisfaction.

"Really, and such a good thing?"

"How did I not know before?"

"Five taels of gold, a little too much."

"Hairy. Don't think I don't know, the big red horse you bought last month. It cost eighty taels of gold. ”

"Shhhh That's for life, can it be the same? I don't know if there is a shortage of soldiers now, maybe one day Suzhou City will be in chaos......"

Song Kai saw that there were still many people hesitating, sighed in his heart, looked up, and found that Li Menghan was looking at him with a smile.

Seeing Li Menghan, Song Kai laughed proudly and shouted, "County Lord! Little county lord! Are you going to buy a book tomorrow? ”

"Huh?" Li Menghan blushed, why is Song Kai such a bastard, why does he call himself the county lord in front of so many people?

Song Kai beckoned to Li Menghan, "Your father is Dong Changyun Daru, and your mother is the eldest princess today, yes or no?" ”

"Huh?" Li Menghan is not clear, what kind of nerves does this Song develop.

Song Kai continued to shout: "County Lord, come down, I remember that you and your father are both supreme members of this store, and I will give you two sets of Chinese ghost story books for free." ”

"Yes, yes!" Li Menghan Zhile.

"What? That little lady is the county lord? ”

"I heard that the county lord gave birth to flowers and moons, and sure enough, it is."

"Even the county lord and Mr. Dong are the supreme members of the Hongchen Inn, it seems that this Hongchen Inn really has some background."

"The key is to have a good reputation."

"I went home to get the money and went to ......"

Song Kai's complaint dispelled the last concern of all the people, and immediately more than a dozen people crowded to the counter to apply for membership.

More people ran back and went home to get their money.

Li Menghan first began to be happy, and then became angry, this damn Song Kai, he knew that he was not well-intentioned, and sure enough, he was really using my father's prestige to promote his Hongchen Inn!

Li Menghan pouted angrily, and then ran downstairs with a "puff", "Song Kai, you are so bold." ”

"What does the county lord mean?" Song Kai pretended not to understand.

"You dare to take advantage of my daddy's reputation!" Li Menghan's round little face was full of murderous aura.

"I didn't, was there something wrong with what I just said? That's right. Song Kai continued to be innocent.

"Humph! Don't try to lie to me this time, I don't care, anyway, I'm going to see the future story of A Chinese Ghost Story now, or I'll ...... I'll just ...... I'll bite you to death! After Li Menghan finished speaking, he also laughed.

Song Kai pointed to the backyard and said, "The stories are all in Qingniang's head, you can beg her yourself." ”

Li Menghan glared at Song Kai, and then ran back to find Qingniang.

At this time, in a VIP box upstairs, a middle-aged man with a long beard had a blue face.

"This son is so hateful!" The middle-aged man hated it.

"Haha, Changyun don't want to be angry." It was an old man who spoke, and it was a frequent customer of Hongchen Inn, Xue Weihai.

"Xue Gong, this son used the painting I made as the cover of such a vulgar story, that's all, just now he dared to use my reputation to solicit business for the inn! It's off me! The middle-aged man hated and said, it turned out that this person was Li Menghan's father, today's concubine, Dong Changyun.

Xue Weihai laughed, "But, Dong Lang, don't you think this trick is very good, in this way, not only will the soldiers be paid, but I think, even the money to bribe the palace guards will be available." ”

"I'm afraid this kid won't give it," Dong Changyun sighed.

"Haha, he will give it, because, he is a smart person," Xue Weihai finished speaking, stroked his beard, lowered his head and squinted his eyes to eat vegetables. (To be continued......)
