The eyes of Liu Hanchang's four siblings were firmly attracted by Shen Qi who was wearing the golden words of Xuanqi, followed by a fierce momentum that spread from Shen Qi's body, and four balls of golden light shot out from inside, and instantly landed on the door of the prison where the four of them were held.

With a bang, the golden light was only the size of a fist, and no flames rose when it landed on the door, but it turned the door to ashes.

After a few seconds, Shen Qi felt that he had some control over the Jin Wen flying out of his body, and tried to think together, and all the Jin Wen automatically drilled into his body, without feeling a trace of abnormality.

"You're free. ”

When all the golden light completely disappeared from the cell, Shen Qi raised his eyes and swept away, and the four brothers and sisters of the Liu family had already knelt down at the door of the broken cell, lined up in a row.

Seeing Shen Qi's sudden change in breath, Liu Hanchang, the boss, regained his calmness, raised his head and said respectfully:

"Dacai was born, and the Liu brothers and sisters are willing to surrender!"

Seeing this, Shen Qi called them aloud:

"The four of you, please start, we need to work together in the future to run Shengda Bookstore well. ”

In this way, Shen Qi paid one hundred taels of silver for each of them and successfully bailed them out, of course, Shen Qi needs to discipline them more, otherwise they will have to take responsibility for any more trouble.

After returning to the store, Shen Qi gave them some silver taels and instructed the four of them to buy all kinds of items needed to set up the bookstore. Among them, there is a plaque, a number of bookshelves, all kinds of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, as well as wooden boards, carving knives and other things needed for engraving. In addition, to open a bookstore, you also need to go to the government to register, Shen Qi has communicated with Zhang Yaowen, this matter is easy to say.

The purchase of such things is very convenient, and you can buy them in some shops in the county, but there is still an urgent matter for Shen Qi to worry about at the moment, that is, there must be a general idea of what Shengda Bookstore operates, otherwise there will be problems in the chaos.

"The shopkeeper, all the things necessary for the engraving have been bought, and here are the accounts of all kinds of expenses and the remaining money. ”

In the store, the four brothers and sisters of Liu Hanchang, who had come back one after another, gathered in a house in the backyard, Shen Qi sat at the desk, and after going through the accounts, he found a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone to write another notice.

"Shopkeeper, what are you writing here?"

Shen Qi picked up the pen, and before he started, Liu Yichuan, who was good at calligraphy, approached and asked, Shen Qi came back from his thoughts and reached out to hand over the brush in his hand.

"The second brother of Yichuan is proficient in calligraphy, so you should write this notice. ”

Shen Qi thought that if they took a fancy to this handwriting again, it would add trouble for no reason, and he also knew that scarcity was expensive.

"Okay, the shopkeeper can afford me, then I'll be ugly. ”

Liu Yichuan was shocked by Shen Qi's second brother, and then happily took the brush and learned the content of this notice from Shen Qi's mouth.

It turned out that Shen Qi planned not to take the path of other bookstores, and wanted to set up a publication that published popular novels to avoid its edge, the length is generally about 1,000 words, and the excellent ones can be extended as appropriate.

Liu Yichuan understood the situation of this collection of short stories and publications, started with a book, and quickly wrote this call for papers.

I saw that the content is: Shengda Bookstore is preparing to open, and will launch a short story collection publication "Kyushu Qi Journal" on the first day of next month, and one issue will be issued on the first day of each month in the future, every month, every year. For this reason, we specially issued an essay call for all reading talents, mainly collecting strange novels within 1,000 words, and the special ones can be extended as appropriate, and a small number of world novels are also included. Once the manuscript is sent to the desert, it will not be spent, and once accepted, the manuscript must be paid.

After writing, Shen Qi praised Liu Yichuan a lot, and it was expected that he should be able to practice his pen skills in less than a year. In addition, because there was no remuneration system in ancient times, it was impossible for most scholars to write novels to support their families, but some literati erected monuments for others and could earn a certain amount of pen polishing fees. Like Shen Qi's "Kyushu Qi Magazine", if he hires a thousand-word essay, he plans to pay a few pennies, and others will be satisfied.

This call for papers was posted at the door, which immediately attracted the attention of many pedestrians, and the news of the call for papers soon spread to the nearby school, and many scholars planned to give it a try.

Shen Qi left Shengda Bookstore at this time and appeared at Chen Tianbao's house, and now he has begun to solicit essays for "Kyushu Qi Magazine", so Chen Tianbao's Shengda Money Village must help with this part of sales, they have a wide range of contacts, and this resource must be used.

In addition to in-store sales, there are many other sales channels for novels in general bookstores, such as book market bookstall sales, long-distance sales and door-to-door delivery and other sales methods, in this process, it is booksellers around the country who play a great role, they purchase genuine books from bookstores and resell them to all parts of the country through various channels.

"Young Master Shen Qi, wait a minute, the master is talking to Chen Xiangru from the Quanzhou headquarters of Shengda Qianzhuang, and I will come to see you later. ”

This Chen Xiangru is Chen Tianbao's nephew, because he only has three daughters, so the business of Qian Zhuang mainly depends on Chen Xiangru to run, and he also does a very good job.

Shen Qi heard that he was drinking tea in the hall with peace of mind, and just happened to see the Chen family's three thousand gold hurriedly walking outside, all talking about Shen Qi's call for papers. The eldest sister Chen Lin saw Shen Qi but didn't say anything, the second sister Chen Rong greeted Shen Qi happily, and the youngest Chen Wan held a hydrangea, staring at Shen Qi all the time, and didn't know what she was thinking.

Shen Qi treated them politely, and the three eldest ladies finally ran away and went to play separately.

Not long after, Chen Tianbao sent away his nephew Chen Xiangru and hurriedly walked in front of Shen Qi, he already knew Shen Qi's intention.

"Shen Qi Xiaoyou, don't worry, I have ordered all branches to inform the booksellers in various places, you only need to prepare the "Kyushu Qi Journal". ”

Chen Tianbao got straight to the point, and then sent a few servants from the mansion to Shengda Bookstore, which happened to help a lot.

Shen Qi was a little relieved when he saw this, and after introducing the preparations of Shengda Bookstore to Chen Tianbao, he returned to the bookstore with a few servants.

Originally, Shen Qi was famous in Anxi County, and now the "Kyushu Qi Journal" founded by him is soliciting manuscripts, and many scholars are gearing up and brewing ideas, and it is estimated that there will be manuscripts sent tomorrow.

In this way, at night, Shen Qi and Liu Hanchang, who had been busy all day, ate dinner made by the servants together, and after falling asleep one after another, Shen Qi was inspecting the many bookshelves placed in the hall. He was thinking that he had to engrave and sell books needed by various agricultural, industrial, commercial and military groups like other bookstores, and of course, the main business in the future would be on the "Kyushu Qi Journal", and he wanted to make this publication a heavyweight publication that was famous on the southeast coast and well-known in Kyushu.

At this time, in the Jinling Bookstore, not far from Shengda Bookstore, a middle-aged man in a gorgeous black shirt stood with his hands in his hands, and a rather thin old man next to him was reporting to him.

This middle-aged man is Jin Quanguo, the owner of Jinling Bookstore, and the old man is Hong Jipu, the shopkeeper of Jinling Bookstore.

After listening to Hong Jipu's report, Jin Quanguo's face was ugly and said:

"Shengda Bookstore is already soliciting manuscripts, if their "Kyushu Qi Magazine" becomes an instant hit next month, our life will not be easy in the future. ”
