Fan Leopard didn't smile, and said lightly: "Boss Li, please speak, I'll listen to you." ”

The air was suddenly tense, Dong Biao and Bi Kun stared at Fan Bao, their hands reached into their suits to hold the electric baton, and Duan Lei went out to guard at the door.

Li Lin opened the modern Chinese dictionary, pointed to the slightly blue page of the book, and said: "After bleaching, the paper pulp has a light yellow, and the paper factory adds dye to cover it, and the paper will turn yellow after the dye fades." ”

Fan Bao immediately retorted: "It is impossible to remove lignin from plants when making paper, and when lignin is oxidized in the air, the pages will turn yellow, and all books will turn yellow." ”

Li Lin said: "The dictionary should accompany students through middle school and college, and if it turns yellow after 10 years, it is a good book, and after 1 year, it is garbage." ”

Fan Bao got up to make tea and said with a smile: "Boss Li, take a sip of tea and speak slowly." ”

"Thank you." Li Lin took out scotch tape from his leather bag, bit off a section with his teeth and stuck it to the words, and pressed it tightly with his fingers.

Slowly lift half of the tape, and then quickly lift the other half, and there is clear handwriting on the tape.

Take a cigarette from the cigarette case, dip the filter in tea and smear it on the dictionary text, and gently poke it with your finger, and soon a line of text turns into a cloud of ink.

Throw the cigarette in the trash, put the tape and dictionary in front of Fan Bao, "Boss Fan, I plan to purchase 5,000 to 10,000 dictionaries this time." ”

Fan Bao didn't look at the tape and the dictionary, and said, "Boss Li, please continue." ”

Li Lin said: "If a student buys a dictionary from me, and it is less than half a year old, and it becomes a wordless book in seconds, what will I do in my business?" ”

Fan Bao laughed and said, "Your words are too exaggerated, this is impossible." ”

"It's not an exaggeration at all." Li Lin's face was full of seriousness, and he said: "Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and when the students don't take care of my business, I can only pay for it and jump into the river." ”

Li Lin lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "Boss Fan, if you pit me to death, won't your conscience hurt?" ”

Fan Bao spread his hands and said indifferently: "Conscience? How much is a pound? ”

The two of them stared at each other, and suddenly they both laughed, and the tense atmosphere quickly eased.

"Boss Li, your words are too exaggerated." Fan Bao put the book in the left drawer and took out two samples from the right drawer.

Li Lin was too lazy to talk nonsense, carefully checked the Xinhua dictionary and the modern Chinese dictionary, first looked at the quality of the paper, then the quality of the ink, and finally looked at the overall workmanship.

Half an hour later, he shook his head and said, "The paper and ink are okay, but I am not satisfied with the spine here." ”

Remove the plastic cover and open the dictionary from the middle, place the spine up on the table, and pick the coagulated glue on the spine with your fingernails.

Stretched out his finger and said: "This is EVA hot melt adhesive, the pages will fall apart after reading for a long time, why don't you use polyurethane hot melt adhesive, the price is not much expensive." ”

Fan Bao said: "Ten books and hundreds of books are not bad money, and thousands of books are bad money." Boss Li is very knowledgeable, I feel that you are more professional than me? ”

Li Lin said: "I don't do business that I don't know how to do." ”

As the saying goes, interlacing is like separating mountains, and a pirated book has so many traps that will be ruined by other guilds.

"I don't lift the bar when you say this." Fan Bao took the two copies again and said, "Look at it again, if you are not satisfied, you don't have to talk about it." ”

Half an hour later, Li Lin nodded and said, "You can negotiate the price." ”

At this time, a female voice came from the door, "Who are you?" This is my home! ”

Fan Bao quickly stood up and said to the girl in denim outside the door, "Huimin, you go to the East House first, and I will discuss business with customers." ”

"Got it." Fan Huimin was very angry, glared at Duan Lei and asked in a low voice: "This is my house, why don't you let me in?" ”

Duan Lei took out his sunglasses and buckled them on his face, and said nothing in place.

The meaning of this action is, you are so ugly that I can't bear to look at it directly with sunglasses.

Fan Huimin pinched her waist with both hands and whispered: "Wearing a suit, tie and sunglasses, you pretend to be the underworld with me?" ”

Bu Qiuju hurriedly ran over to play a round game, and said with a smile: "Tingting said that you can cut paper, teach me how to cut big red happy characters." ”

Fan Huimin glared at Duan Lei fiercely, and talked to Bu Qiuju with a smile, "Sister Tingting said nonsense, I don't look good." ”

Fan Bao smiled embarrassedly in the room and said, "This girl is spoiled by me, don't worry about Boss Li." ”

"I feel pretty good, neither hard nor noisy, I know how to advance and retreat." Li Lin lit a cigarette and said, "Boss Fan, can you talk about money?" ”

Fan Bao asked rhetorically: "How many goods does Boss Li plan to pick up, the price of 1,000 and 10,000 is definitely different." ”

Li Lin said: "You talk about it, I'll listen to it." ”

Fan Bao stretched out 3 fingers, "16 yuan below 1,000 books, 15 yuan below 10,000 books, and 14 yuan above 10,000 books." ”

Li Lin opened the dictionary to read the last page, took out the calculator from his bag and put it on the table.

"Boss Fan, there are 1651 pages with a total of 828 sheets, and the cost of each sheet plus labor is less than 1 cent, and I will give you 1 cent, and the cost is 8.28 yuan.

The title page of the cardboard and plastic cover is at most 5 cents and 2 cents, so the cost of the book is 8.8 yuan.

You can earn me 1 dollar per book, so don't talk to me about 15, 16, I'll give up to 9 dollars and 8 cents. ”

Fan Bao Huo Ran got up, gritted his teeth and said: "You are not right, the cost of a page of books is at least one and a half minutes, if you don't believe it, you can inquire, who dares to say that it is not one and a half minutes, I will give you a car of books for free." ”

Li Lin pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Boss Fan, they are all thousand-year-old foxes, don't talk to me about fasting." ”

Fan Bao sat down again and said, "Let's open the skylight and say something bright, you give 13 yuan for 10,000 books, don't say anything less." ”

Li Lin picked up the Xinhua dictionary with a crimson plastic cover, which was the eighth edition published by the Commercial Press.

The price of Xinhua Dictionary has always been very close to the people, whether it is now or in the future, it is about equal to the price of a pound of pork, and now it is 4 yuan for 1 copy.

Because of its affordability, elementary school students basically have one copy, so it is the best-selling book of all time.

Li Lin looked at the list of areas, populations, and capitals of countries in the world on the appendix, and asked, "What is the price of the dictionary?" ”

Fan Bao said: "More than 5,000 copies are 9 cents each. ”

"Okay." Li Lin took out his business card and gave it to him and said, "I will stay in Dongming for 5 days, and my mobile phone will be turned on for you 24 hours a day." ”

Fan Bao also knew that business was not negotiated in a day, so he took Li Lin's hand and said, "You can't go, let's have a few drinks." ”

Li Lin politely shirked: "I'll invite you to drink another day, I just arrived in Dongming today, and I have to go to my uncle's house to recognize my relatives." ”

"This is easy to do, I will let Brother Kui and Sister-in-law stay." Fan Bao enthusiastically stayed for dinner, and said why not let Li Lin go.

The two sides quarreled with each other, and Li Lin simply stayed and waited for Zhang Kui to get off work, chatting with Fan Bao about mobile phones and cars in the yard.

Bu Qiuju and Fan Huimin were cutting paper in the courtyard, Fan Huimin kept peeking at Duan Lei, and snorted softly from time to time.

Bu Qiuju, who is old and sophisticated, whispered: "Hui Min Nier, my nephew has not ordered a matchmaker, he has a mobile phone and a car, and the family is building a building, let me tell him about you at night?" ”

Fan Huimin rolled her eyes and whispered, "Auntie, don't say it, he is not good-looking, and he will definitely not look down on me." ”

Bu Qiuju was very puzzled, and suddenly leaned on Fan Huimin's ear and said, "The person you like who won't let you enter the hall?" ”

"I didn't!" Fan Huimin cut the Xizi in two with a pair of scissors, gritted her teeth and said, "That's a piece of wood, it's even more stupid than Guo Jing." ”

When Zhang Kui got off work after dark, Li Lin drove home with him, and just out of the alley, he found a man and a woman in front of him.

Zhang Kui pushed the bicycle over to talk, and half a minute later returned to the car and said: "They are also engaged in printing, and they live in an alley with Fan Bao, and they want you to go to his house to have a look." ”

Li Lin looked at his watch and said, "Zhong, go and have a look." ”

Zhang Kui asked Bu Qiuju to ride home to cook, Li Lin asked Duan Lei and Duan Daqing to stay and watch the car, and took Dong Biao and Bi Kun to say hello.
