Chapter 66 Modification of the Scheme
Although the sugar shop shopkeeper despised it in his heart, he always had a flattering smile on his face.
The kid in front of him may not have a high status in the Ye family, but he can continue to provide himself with tribute-level sugar.
You must know that the bag of sugar last time made you gain the favor of many wealthy families.
With this affection, the business of his own sugar shop in the future will not be too easy.
Even if it's for the sake of money, you have to compliment him well.
After all, it's all about making money, and there's no shame in that.
After listening to the answer of the sugar shopkeeper, Yun Yi couldn't help but be curious.
Could it be that there are still people in this Great Zhou Dynasty who, like themselves, have mastered the method of purifying white sugar from black sugar?
Although he had doubts in his heart, Yunyi did not delve into it further.
After all, judging from the current situation, the shopkeeper of the sugar shop should not be suspicious of himself.
The shopkeeper of the sugar shop personally weighed Yunyi the sugar, and still settled the money for him according to the full name.
After the money and goods were cleared, Yun Yi was sent by the shopkeeper of the sugar shop, and Shi Shiran went out of the store.
When Yun Yi came to the door of the Plum Blossom Thatched Cottage with a bookcase on his back, he almost thought that he had gone to the wrong place.
The plum blossom thatched cottage that used to be full of people is now crowded with people.
When Yunyi squeezed into the store with the flow of people, he heard Su Xiaoxiao announce to everyone apologetically:
"Ladies and gentlemen, since Dream of Red Mansions was printed for the first time, the number is not very large."
"It's sold out now, so please come back another day."
Although Su Xiaoxin was polite, the young ladies in the store didn't buy it.
As soon as Su Xiaoxiao's words fell, those customers began to shout.
"Shopkeeper Su, in order to buy the Dream of Red Mansions, I came here early in the morning, why was it out of stock when it was my turn?"
"Yes! If we just go back this time, won't we have to squeeze it again next time? ”
"Shopkeeper Su, since Cao Family's Dream of Red Mansions is so popular, why don't you print more?"
"I don't want to squeeze around anymore, and I ask Shopkeeper Su to give me an explanation."
"Yes! Please also ask the shopkeeper Su to give an explanation, we will give priority to the purchase next time. ”
……
Seeing that there was a trend of group anger, Su Xiaoxiao was about to cry urgently.
I didn't expect there to be so many troubles in hot sales!
"Shopkeeper Su, if I pay the money now, will I be able to receive it directly next time the new book arrives?"
Looking at the gradually turbulent crowd, Yun Yi was also worried in his heart.
In case this group of young ladies squeezes out something in this plum blossom cottage, I'm afraid this shop will come to an end.
Yun Yi saw that Su Xiaoxiao looked like she was about to cry at this time, so she had no choice but to be a nursery in the crowd.
The crowd in the shop was noisy, but no one could come up with any effective solutions.
At this time, everyone listened to Yunyi's proposal, and their eyes lit up instantly.
That's right!
As long as you pay the money yourself, won't you be able to pick up the new book in advance next time it arrives?
In just an instant, the crowd resounded one after another echoing voices.
"Shopkeeper Su, I am willing to pay for the book first, and I also ask you to collect the money and register."
"I want to pre-order a copy, and I will ask Shopkeeper Su to collect the payment."
"I want three."
"I want to ......"
Hearing the voices of everyone's gossip, Su Xiaoxiao instantly became a big head.
Seeing that everyone was crowding towards the counter, she couldn't help but cast a pleading glance at Yunyi.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that the next edition of the book will definitely be more than our number."
"If everyone can buy it, why rush it!"
"In my opinion, everyone might as well line up and pay in turn."
"This is also good for Shopkeeper Su to do a good job of registration, so as not to cause omissions."
Since the idea of pre-booking just now was put forward by Yun Yi, after listening to his proposal at this time, everyone began to consciously line up.
Yunyi seemed to be carrying forward his style and took the initiative to stand at the back of the line.
This makes many people who want to cut the queue blush.
Didn't anyone who didn't look at the suggestions made by others take the opportunity to stand at the front of the line?
Since it was only a payment registration, the speed was much faster than when I sold the book just now.
However, it took Su Xiaoxiao a full hour to collect all the deposits.
"Yun Gongzi, fortunately you are here today, otherwise I really don't know what to do."
After sending off the last customer, Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her sore wrist and said to Yunyi with a scared face.
"It's nothing, I'm just doing it."
Yun Yi came here today just to see if Dream of Red Mansions had been published.
Now that he sees that the sales of Dream of Red Mansions are so good, his heart is relaxed.
At this rate, even if the silver ticket cannot be redeemed, he can build a large brick house before winter comes.
"Judging from the current situation, our first wave of word-of-mouth marketing has done quite well."
"I'll calculate today's income in a moment, and then send it to the bookstore, so that I can start printing the second issue as soon as possible."
After inviting Yunyi to sit down, Su Xiaoxiao first poured him a cup of tea, and then told him about his next step.
"It's just going according to plan."
Listening to Su Xiaoxiao's words, Yun Yi nodded noncommittally, and then took a sip of the teacup.
These were the results of what the two of them had agreed upon, and now they are just going according to plan.
"There shouldn't be any big problem with the printing of books, but it is still a little difficult to transport them smoothly into Linjiang County."
"Childe must have seen it when he entered the city today, and now there are homeless people everywhere outside the city."
"Once these homeless people start to make trouble because they don't have enough to eat, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to enter the city again."
Su Xiaoxiao said to Yunyi with emotion while holding the teacup.
Hearing Su Xiaoxiao say this, Yun Yi's brows couldn't help frowning.
In his previous life, he also saw similar scenes in film and television dramas.
I know that once the homeless people riot, they are likely to become outlaws.
If it can't be appeased at that time, the imperial court may have to send troops to suppress it.
Now these situations are happening vividly in front of him, which makes Yun Yi feel depressed for a while.
He is now just a poor scholar with no reputation, and it can almost be said that he wants to completely change this situation.
But despite this, Yunyi still decided to do something for those homeless people, even if it was just a drop in the bucket, at least he could be worthy of his heart.
After thinking for a while, Yun Yi said to Su Xiaoxiao:
"I'd like to revise the marketing plan for the second phase."
After speaking, he looked at Su Xiaoxiao with anticipation.
You must know that although the income of Dream of Red Mansions is five or five open, Su Xiaoxiao is the owner of the study after all, and he has the most say in how to sell books.
Su Xiaoxiao, who was hurrying to sort out the account books, heard Yun Yi say this, first looked up in surprise, and then asked Yun Yi with a puzzled expression:
"Could it be that Yun Gongzi has a new idea again?"
