Chapter Eighty-Nine: Selling Crazy

In mid-January, Ivory Island, a magazine published by the Ivory Evening News, like a once-in-a-century storm, swept the entire island in just half a month and became the focus of people's discussion.

The entertainment magazine, called Men's Wear, was unique from the start, not only with eye-catching cover girls, but also with all kinds of entertainment elements, such as first-class novels and essays, such as provocative comics, such as the most popular food, wine, cars, stereos......

All in all, it's a book that any male reader would want to have, it's free of boring preaching, it's not about the principle of a long story, it's all about entertainment from the first page to the last, and it makes a bold claim that entertainment and enjoyment are everyone's rights!

In fact, as someone put it in the inaugural issue: "If you're a man, between the ages of 18 and 80, Menswear is the magazine for you, and if you're looking for a humorous, deep and passionate experience of entertainment, Menswear is the ...... for you."

Therefore, this manifesto is plagiarized at all, but who cares, and it is precisely because of this entertainment proposition that the first issue of "Men's Clothing" was directly announced to be out of stock only half a day after its official release, and 3,000 copies of the magazine were sold cleanly, and even the defective products that were wrong in printing were bought at a high price.

Then, by the time the second issue of "Men's Wear" was released again, there was already a long queue in front of the Ivory Evening News, whether it was the nobles of Ivory Island, the businessmen with a certain economic strength, or even the ordinary commoners, all of them were crazy about this magazine, and some even preferred to save a month's food money. I also have to buy a copy of "Men's Clothing" and go back to see it.

Half a month later, have you ever read this magazine, it has become the highest standard of whether you are fashionable enough, at the banquets of the aristocracy, in the merchants' estates, and even in the roadside taverns, you can see people everywhere talking about the theme of this issue of the magazine, such as the figure of the cover girl in this issue, such as the debate ranking of the dancers, such as the luxurious carriage that is detailed in detail. Which gentleman bought it in the end......

Of course, not everyone is praising this magazine, and there are many decent gentlemen on Ivory Island who strongly condemn it, such as Baron Blaine, who is a Puritans, and immediately slapped the table angrily after seeing "Men's Clothing" for the first time: "How can this be reasonable, this kind of completely entertaining vulgar publication is simply worthless, excessive, excessive." It's too much!"

What can I say, seeing that he was so angry that he almost fainted, the housekeeper who originally planned to curry favor with "Men's Clothes" could only wipe his head in a cold sweat and nod again and again. "It's, it's just that the world is going down, so big. I'm going to burn it now!"

"Burn what?" Baron Blaine held out his hand tremblingly, a divine light shining behind him, "Go." Go ahead, buy me ten more copies, from the first issue to the current one, all of them!"

The butler, who was still ashamed just now, almost hit his head on the table, what did I hear wrong, you just said that this publication is vulgar and worthless, and you turned around and wanted to buy it, and you bought ten copies in one go, do you plan to eat it tonight?

"Of course you have to buy it, if you don't study it carefully, how can you find incriminating evidence?" Baron Blaine's face was full of justice, and his face didn't blush, "As for why I want to buy ten copies, it's because I'm going to mobilize my friends to condemn together, to condemn harshly, to condemn fiercely." ”

Awe-inspiring, the butler was suddenly in awe, he simply didn't say anything, and rushed out directly with the money bag, and Baron Bryan didn't forget to chase after him and remind: "Remember, if the next issue of the magazine comes out, you must buy it early, I will continue to condemn this magazine, and insist on condemning it until it is completely out of publication." ”

Well, like it or condemn it, anyway, the just-published "Men's Wear" is completely crazy, the first issue was sold out, the second issue was sold out, and the third issue was ...... Well, the third issue has not yet been listed, and there are already people lining up at the entrance of the evening newspaper overnight, and they even brought the bedding over.

This was just the beginning, and in late January, when Lin Taiping attended a banquet hosted by Speaker Federer, he suddenly said vaguely that "Men's Clothing" would not only be released on Ivory Island, but would also be developed to other islands to meet the enthusiastic demand of readers.

Do you know what this means? Merchants who smelled the gold coins surrounded the Ivory Evening News that night, including not only the merchants of the island, but also the maritime merchants who had just arrived on Ivory Island, and the moment they arrived at the port to pick up the "Men's Clothes", they immediately realized that the profit of this thing was much higher than that of any red wine.

As a result, Lin Taiping, who was already very busy, now has another happy trouble, that is, he has to receive businessmen from Tiannan and Haibei waving golden tickets, and mechanically repeats the sentence: "Of course, of course, as long as our printing can keep up, I am happy to put the agency ...... Tulu, can you put down your order and come over and help?"

"Lin, eating is also a very important thing. Tulu blinked pitifully and looked at the restaurateur who came to deliver the menu next to him, "What, bring me thirty grilled chicken legs, no, twenty is fine, no way, we have to scrape together money to buy a battleship recently, so we have to save some money." ”

This is the truth, because there is still a shortage of 230,000 gold coins, Christine and the dark creatures have begun to be thrifty, and even the minotaurs have recently reduced their food and clothing, so Tulu can only endure the protest of the four stomachs in the face of the restaurant owner, and sigh with a sad face: "How much is twenty roast chicken legs? What, it actually costs six gold coins, you might as well go and grab it directly, okay, then give me fifteen ......"

"I'll give you a thousand gold coins!" Before the words were finished, among the merchants surrounding Lin Taiping over there, one of them suddenly screamed angrily, "Dear Mr. Lin, please sell me the agency of Swordfish Island, in addition to each magazine, I am willing to give a thousand gold coins as an agency fee!"

With a bang, Christine and Nightsong were coming down the stairs. I was debating whether to buy some skincare products that were about to expire to make do, and when I heard this staggering number, I almost rolled down the stairs.

As for Tulu, who was still ordering food with a sad face, he immediately slapped the table viciously, and his eyes flashed red wildly: "You moo! I don't want fifteen roast chicken legs, I want fifty, no, sixty!"

Well, it's a lot of fun here. But Lin Taiping was really troublesome, a large group of businessmen surrounded him like chickens, and resorted to all kinds of methods, just to be able to get the exclusive agency right of men's clothes, and even a guy actually claimed that his ancestors were also from the far East, just like the so-called fellow countryman sees the old man......

"See you!" Lin Taiping couldn't help but roll his eyes desperately, seeing the businessmen around him gather more and more, and finally couldn't help but shout, "Stop! If you say one more word, I won't even sell him half a piece of paper!"

Very good and powerful, in an instant, all the merchants present immediately covered their mouths with amusement. Dozens of pairs of eyes were full of hope, and they stared at him pitifully and neatly, and even tears could be seen flowing down.

"Auction, let's auction!" Lin Taiping waved his hand. Christine, who was next to her, immediately took a nautical chart detailing the commercial islands of the Horn Sea, "starting with the nearest Swordfish Island." The reserve price of the agency fee starts at 1,000 gold coins, and the one with the highest price will get it, and if you don't quote within ten seconds, it will be regarded as an active waiver, start now!"

"Fifteen hundred gold coins!" Before he could finish saying this, the screaming merchant just now immediately raised his hand, "I will give 1,500 gold coins, which one robbed Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu cursed him to drink soup and couldn't find a spoon!"

I can use my hands directly without a spoon! The merchant next to him ignored the threat, and immediately someone rushed to raise the price: "Two thousand gold coins, I will pay two thousand gold coins, what, if you give two thousand five, then I will pay three thousand, who can be higher than me?"

In less than a few minutes, the agency fee for Flying Fish Island rose to three thousand gold coins, Christine heard her hands and heart tremble together, and she almost threw away the navigation chart, Yege erected two red pointed ears, and a wisp of green smoke was about to come out of the tips of the ears, as for Tulu, who was still ordering food over there......

"No, don't roast the chicken legs, I want to roast the cow, roast the whole beef!" viciously grabbed the restaurateur, Tulu was so rich and extravagant that even his nose was steaming, "Ten roast whole cows, I want the freshest ...... What? The minotaur eats beef or not, you care about me, I say I want it!"

In this way, in the tearful expression of the restaurateur, the auction over there was still in full swing, the first Swordfish Island sold for 3,000 gold coins, the second Blue Bay Island sold for 5,000 gold coins, and the third most famous Beaver Island, which is still in a fierce state of contention, but the price has reached 8,000 gold coins......

Eight thousand gold coins, a full eight thousand glittering gold coins, hearing this astronomical amount, Christine was stunned, Yege and her friends were stunned, and even Lin Taiping couldn't help but shudder, and a rare conscience found and asked, "What, this gentleman, are you sure you can earn back eight thousand gold coins?"

"I can, anything is possible!" The big businessman with a round waist and thick shoulders didn't even think about it, he directly took out eight gold tickets and slapped them on the table, and after thinking about it, he made up two more tickets, and the table trembled, "If the magazine can give priority to my needs, I can even take out another two thousand gold coins to make up a whole number, how auspicious!"

At this moment, Christine and Yege have plans to hug their heads and cry, woo woo, we no longer have to save clothes and diets, no longer have to buy the cheapest skin care products, no longer have to go to the small store on the side of the road to buy discounted clothes, let what thrift see the undead!

So, in the midst of this strange silence, Tulu suddenly roared hysterically, jumped up with a frenzied face, and directly lifted the restaurateur high in the air.

"Moo, roast chicken, roast duck, roast lamb, roast cow, etc., all of them...... Tell me quickly, do you have roasted whole dragons for sale there, money is not a problem, give me a full dozen!"

Of course, this is not the point, the point is that Xiao Che is a very cute soft girl, everyone hurry up and push it down...... No, it's to greet her.
