Chapter 54: On sale
The boy named Stone nervously waited for the shopkeeper's answer.
"I'll have to ask the owner about this." Although Shopkeeper Hu felt that the problem was not a big problem, he did not make his own opinion, and sent his partner Liu Zhou to ask Xin Yu for advice.
Xin Yu still has an impression of this young man, anyway, he is idle, so he just goes to see him.
As soon as the stone saw Xin Yu, he knelt down and kowtowed: "Thanks to the silver money you bounted, my mother didn't stop the medicine and survived......"
Shopkeeper Hu said on the side: "Dongjia, this kid's name is Shishi, his mother is much better now, he can leave people, he wants to come back to do things." You see—"
"Stone, you get up first."
The stone climbed up very obediently, and looked at Xin Yu's eyes full of longing and apprehension.
"I heard from the shopkeeper, you used to learn rigidity from your master in the bookstore?"
Xin Yu's gossiping tone made the stone relax a little: "Yes." ”
"Do you like stereotypes?"
"Love ......"
Even though the stone answered quickly, Xin Yu still felt the boy's hesitation. She curled her lips: "Actually, we need a guy to greet guests now." ”
The young man Liu Zhou looked at Xin Yu in astonishment, and tears were about to flow.
Owner, are you going to abandon the villain!
The stone couldn't help but glance at Liu Zhou.
Xin Yu smiled: "Liu Zhou can't be busy alone. ”
Hearing this, Liu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and nodded again and again: "That's right, I can't be busy alone!" ”
Shopkeeper Hu: "......" isn't this talking nonsense with his eyes open?
"As long as the owner wants me, let me do anything." The stone immediately took a stand.
"Then you will greet guests with Liu Zhou in the future, and the salary will be compared to Liu Zhou's eighty percent, and if you do well in three months, you will be the same as Liu Zhou."
"Thank you, thank you!"
The stone wanted to kneel down and kowtow again, but Xin Yu waved his hand to stop it: "Shopkeeper, you explain what the stone should pay attention to." ”
As soon as Xin Yu left, the shopkeeper Hu carefully explained, and deliberately emphasized: "Have you seen the "Peony Story" on the shelf, if someone comes to buy it, try to find out the identity of the other party as much as possible, if it is a woman, as long as the owner is in the bookstore, I will report to her as soon as possible." ”
Although Shi felt that this request was very strange, he didn't ask a word: "Don't worry, shopkeeper, I have written it down." ”
Shopkeeper Hu showed a pleased smile: "Don't look at our host's youth, but he is not an ordinary person. Stone, you are a clever person, and you will work hard in the future, and your future will not be bad. ”
On the side, Liu Zhou silently rolled his eyes.
came again and again, saying every day that the owner is not an ordinary person, and he can't tell you if he asks again. Hmph, he also knows that the owner is not an ordinary person, can an ordinary person make a difference of 10,000 taels by buying a bookstore?
Waiting until private, Shi asked Liu Zhou for advice: "Brother Liu, how did you inquire about the identity of the other party when you met a guest who bought "The Story of Peony"?" ”
"Well, this-" Facing the young man's eyes full of curiosity, Liu Zhou patted him on the head, "I didn't see a layer of dust on the top of "The Story of Peony", where did the guests come from." ”
"The Story of the Peony" is a best-selling book, but it is precisely because of this that almost everyone had one copy at the beginning, and now Mr. Ping'an's "The Story of the Spirit Fox" and "The Butterfly Fairy" have come out, who still buys "The Story of the Peony", many people are still tight on hand to buy new books.
Let him see, whether the printed "Peony Story" is going to be smashed in his hands, or he is counting on the new books that the printing workshop is busy with.
For the new book to be published, except for Shopkeeper Hu and Manager Zhao, who have read all the contents of the first half, the rest of the bookstore is bottomless, and the coldness of the bookstore makes them feel anxious about drinking the northwest wind at any time.
On an ordinary morning, an ordinary notice was posted on the wall of the ordinary outside the Qingsong Bookstore, which soon attracted many people to gather.
It's not surprising that whoever asked Qingsong Bookstore to post notices twice had strange news.
"Yo, there's a new script on sale. "Painted Skin"? What does this mean by this strange name? ”
Looking down further, the man couldn't help but read out: "Is the stunning woman a human or a ghost?" Is it a beautiful love affair that the world envies, or is it a destined love catastrophe? The answer is all in "Painted Skin" ......"
"Well, that sounds a little tempting." A young man dressed as a scholar said as his legs involuntarily walked into the Qingsong Bookstore.
"Heh, this Mr. Songling is unknown, can he really write a good story?" The person who questioned the author frowned and muttered, and also walked towards the Green Pine Bookstore.
"Hey, didn't you say that Mr. Writing Books is not famous and unreliable?"
The man coughed lightly: "That's what I said, but what is written on this notice is still a little interesting, anyway, it's only a few hundred words, buy it and flip through it casually." ”
The questioner gave a sour look in his eyes.
Got it, this guy is not bad for money.
There are also some people who especially like to read books but don't have enough money, knowing that the "Butterfly Fairy" in the opposite bookstore will be resold after a while, and they didn't catch up with the first wave of buying, so they decided to pinch the copper plate tightly.
Rao is like this, and the book buyers who walked in one after another were enough to bring tears to the eyes of Shopkeeper Hu.
"Boss, how did you come up with the idea to write that on the notice, and the effect is so good!"
Obviously, there is a difference between what is written on the notice and the feeling after reading it, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is all right, and you don't have to worry about the person who bought the book smashing rotten eggs on the door of the bookstore after reading it.
Xin Yu smiled but said nothing.
I'm really embarrassed to boast, it's all a habit I developed from listening to my mother's stories since I was a child. At first, in order to arouse her curiosity to listen to the story, the mother came up with these words, and over time she would too.
My mother once said that her hometown was far, far away, and she couldn't go back so far. I don't know what kind of place there are so many interesting people and interesting stories.
In Guozi Prison, Duan Yunlang was lobbying his classmates.
"Today, the new book of Qingsong Bookstore is on sale, go and have a look."
"No, I don't think a book writer I've never heard of can write a good story. Not to mention wasting money, but also delaying the lunch break. ”
"Yaxin Bookstore's "Butterfly Fairy" didn't catch up with the purchase at that time, and I heard that it was about to be resold, so let's buy "Butterfly Fairy" at that time."
"Just give my little brother a face and cheer for my cousin." Duan Yunlang rushed to his classmates.
He saw Cousin Qing yesterday, and overheard that a new script would be released today, so why should he support it.
Alas, the cousin who loses money every day is so pitiful.
A young man with phoenix eyes couldn't help but smile when he heard Duan Yunlang say this: "You would have said this earlier." Let's go. ”
No matter whether the new script of Qingsong Bookstore is good or not, the friend's face still has to be given a few points.
Duan Yunlang and a few classmates walked out, and on the way, they met people who were curious to ask, and called people to the team with a thick skin, and when they walked out of the country, there were more than a dozen people.
Looking at the crowded Qingsong Bookstore, the Fengmu boy had a strange expression: "Yun Lang, Ling Mei doesn't seem to need to be specially cheered." ”
Duan Yunlang slowly lifted his chin.
