Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 2150: Business

  Chapter 2150 Business

  The busiest place is the newspaper kiosk outside the official newspaper office, where many people are waiting to buy newspapers.

  The other one is outside Yonghe Bookstore.

  The shopkeeper last night, in order to read the re-printed script to avoid mistakes, kept watching, went to bed very late, and was still yawning when he woke up in the morning.

  As soon as he asked the bookstore waiter to open the door, he was startled by a group of guests outside.

   "Second brother, do you sell the book "Road to the Imperial Examination" here? Where is it? I want to buy two copies."

   "Xiao Er, I want to buy this book too, I want three copies..."

   "Hey, I came here yesterday. I waited in line for half a day and still haven't bought one. I promised to have it today. Don't make me wait another day."

  Xiao Er was so crowded that he was almost drowned in the crowd. He quickly stretched out his hand and said loudly, "Everyone, don't worry, there are new ones today. There are a lot of them. There are a total of 2,000 copies. Don't squeeze, everyone has them."

   "Really? So many? Hurry up and line up." The eyes of the guests lit up when they heard the news.

Xiao Er managed to squeeze out of the crowd, and called other workers in the shop to help move the books out, and simply sold them at the door. After all, the book shop is not big, and there are so many books in it, people squeezed in and destroyed them. Nothing is worth it.

  The shopkeeper yawned and made a quick decision: "Just sell here, and open the door after selling."

  The shopkeeper can be regarded as seeing it. Those who come so early are basically buying the script of "Road to the Imperial Examination".

  He can also open the door later without delaying business.

  Xiao Er was so busy that he was sweating profusely: "Everyone, right here, come one by one..."

   "Give me money, I want two copies."

   "Here I am, a book."

   "I have three books..."

  Xiao Er was in charge of handing over the books, and the cashier next to him quickly collected the money, and two handymen helped move the notebooks.

  Two thousand copies may not sound like a lot, but there are still several big stacks, a thick stack, which is quite heavy.

  After dealing with most of the customers who bought books, 80% of the books have been sold, and Xiaoer can finally rest and drink.

   "Second brother, I have some business to discuss with you, can you recommend the shopkeeper?" A middle-aged man in a long gown said kindly.

  Hearing Xiaoer's words, he looked at him a few more times.

  The middle-aged man saw this, and quickly reported his identity: "Little brother, my surname is Zhong, and I specialize in running a business. There is a Zhong's Escort Agency under my name. I hope you can inform me."

   "Okay, just wait a moment." Xiaoer happened to be replaced.

   Seeing that the visitor had a good attitude, I went to report to the shopkeeper.

   After a while, Xiaoer came out from the inside and waved to Zhong Shan: "Come in."

   "Thank you." Zhong Shan bowed his hands politely, not despising at all because of his status as the second child.

   This made Xiao Er feel more at ease.

  Here, the shopkeeper of the bookstore entertained Zhong Shan in the inner room.

"What business is Mr. Zhong talking about?" The shopkeeper actually already knew it in his heart. At this time, those who come to the bookstore to discuss business are basically related to "Road to the Imperial Examination". After all, Zhong Shan is not the first to come, nor will he be the last one.

  But he has his wife's order that when choosing a partner, he must first look at his character, and exclude those businessmen who deliberately come to inquire about the news before he can determine the partner.

   As a result, he hasn't made a decision yet.

  Zhong Shan is also a frank person, telling the truth: "The shopkeeper, Zhong wants to come over and ask if he can sell Zhong 5,000 copies of the book "Road to the Imperial Examination"."
