Zhuo Lei said skeptically: "Is that alright?"

Fei Yan said: "Why not give it a try!"

"Good!" Since little sister said it was alright, then let's give it a try! In any case, we've already lost them all, so the cost is only four to five hundred liang! "

An auspicious time two days later.

Journey to the West was officially launched!

Zhuo Lei's new shop was also opened, and it was called Fourth Brother's Book Shop. Simple and easy to remember, this allowed many people to identify this trademark in the future!

At a certain teahouse.

Fei Yan put on her men's clothes, dressed up as a young master and walked into the teahouse with a cage of Octadic Bird.

It was a hot summer day.

The weather is hot and dry...

Many people had gathered at the teahouse to drink tea and cool the summer heat. They gathered in groups of three to five, peeled several plates of peanuts, and discussed some gossip …

"Have you heard? "The third concubine of Steward Guo from the east of the city went out on a rampage. She was caught red-handed last night and was so angry that Steward Guo beat the adulterers to death on the spot!"

There were four or five young masters gathered together to gossip.

Fei Yan moved closer: "Brothers, can we talk after taking a seat?"

The fat man said, "It's just an ugly matter of an aunt or a whore stepping out of the wall. It happens every day, so there's nothing new to it anymore! "Oh right, brother, you came from the north of the city, tell us a few interesting things about the north of the city!"

Seeing that the time was right, Fei Yan suddenly whispered in a mysterious tone, "Have you all not heard of the story of Journey to the West?"

Seeing that she was so mysterious, the fat man and the other young masters curiously asked, "Journey to the West? What was it? Why haven't I heard of it! "

Fei Yan made a silent gesture, intentionally looked around mysteriously, and then said: "I have a good thing!"

The others were curious. "Since you have something good, take it out and have a look. It's such a hot day. Everyone is bored!"

Fei Yan took out a booklet from her pocket.

When the fat man saw it, he said in disappointment, "Isn't it just a novel? There are more than 100 books in my family's bookshelf! I'm tired of reading all these old and boring stories. "

Fei Yan laughed: This is not a boring story! Do you know how expensive this book is? "

The fat man said, "How expensive can it be? 1 tael of silver? "

Fei Yan asked: One tael of silver? One tael of gold isn't enough! Twenty silver! "

"What?"

"Twenty taels of silver?"

"What lousy book is this?"

"Is it made of gold?"

"Twenty taels of silver for a little book?" Is the story inside really that good? "

Everyone was so shocked by this price that their faces turned pale.

Fei Yan continued to speak: "Twenty silver is still a market price! Do you know? The number of books on Journey to the West in the north of the city had already increased to 22 copies! Moreover, it wasn't something that an ordinary person could buy! In the entire capital, only the Fourth Brother's library could sell it! This was truly the most amazing book in the world! Anyone who took a look would be attracted! If you don't believe me, just take a look! "

"Is it really that magical?"

"I've never seen anyone dare to sell a little book for twenty taels of silver!"

"Come! Let me take a look as well! If it's really that good, I'll buy a book too. "

The young masters continued browsing among themselves. At the beginning, they were just looking through the pages in a new and interesting mood. However, after flipping through a few pages, they were immediately attracted by the story inside!

"A demon monkey popping out of the rock?"

"He wants to pay a visit to the famous mountains and visit the immortal masters?"

"A comeback of a hundred thousand miles?"

"72 types of changes that are mystical and fun?"

"Tang Dynasty's Monk is handsome and wordy?"

"He was assigned to retrieve Buddhist scriptures from the Sacred Land?"

"Do we encounter demons along the way?"

Everyone was engrossed in reading. There was only one book, but there were five people, and everyone gradually started to fight over it …

Fei Yan snatched the book away and kept it in her very precious pocket.

The fat man said, "I haven't finished reading it yet! I just saw that the demon monkey is about to become a demon king! "

The other Young Master also strongly protested, "I didn't finish either! I really want to know how such a powerful demon monkey could turn into the wordy monk's disciple? "

Another person said, "I've read over a hundred little books, but I've never read such a novel and interesting story before!"

Fei Yan said very seriously: "This book is not for sale everywhere! I only got two copies from an acquaintance. "

The fat man immediately said, "You have two, how about you give me one? I'll give you twenty silver! "

Another person immediately said, "Sell it to me! I'll give you twenty silver as well! "

Another person came out to snatch it, "I bid 22 taels! "Sell it to me!"

"I bid 25 taels!"

Fei Yan said: "Thirty twenty percent! I have two! I'm done reading it anyway! "

When the fat man thought that she could sell it to someone else after reading it, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll take thirty taels! "Immediately give me silver!"

After saying that, he quickly took out the taoyin, afraid that others would buy it first.

There were five people here, but there were only two books in total!

The other person also took out their money to buy the other one.

Fei Yan's two books were sold for sixty silver.

The book was sold out!

However, the problem had arisen!

Originally, there were only five people at this table. However, when the guests at the other tables saw that something 'good' had happened, they all gathered around!

Everyone knew that there was actually such a beautiful book!

Everyone wants to buy it!

But he couldn't buy it.

Everyone was very disappointed, and those who bought the book were very pleased with themselves.

Fei Yan said, "Everyone does not need to be too disappointed! A person who hasn't bought a book can borrow from a person who has bought a book! Moreover, I heard that there are a few children who are peddling on the streets of the northern part of the city! However, luck was the only way. "I heard that the books published by the Fourth Brother Book Association on XX Street should have a lot of stock. According to my relative, he said that they could be bought at wholesale prices …"

"North Street?"

"Fourth Brother Book Association?"

"Hurry up and fight for it!"

"Or else someone will buy it all!"

"Everyone, quickly go!"

Just then, a young master who had just entered the teahouse saw the commotion and asked curiously, "What happened to everyone here? Where are you going in such a hurry? "

"She went to the Fourth Brother Book Association to snatch the books! If I go too late, I won't be able to get it! "

"Grab the book? Count me in! "

Seeing the crowd so agitated, the young master did not know why but he followed the big guy!

Fei Yan then quietly retreated, and continued to the west side of the city at the teahouse.

A few hours later, when she returned to the library, she saw a large group of people clamoring outside the shop!

By this time she had changed into a woman's outfit, and no one knew her.

Fei Yan entered the shop from the back, and saw Zhuo Lei, Song Qing and the rest looking worried.

Fei Yan asked: "Fourth Brother. With so many people here, he should have sold quite a few books, right? "Why do you look so bitter?"

Zhuo Lei said: "What a pity, what a pity! There were four hundred books in the store, and Song Qing and the rest had brought about nearly a hundred books to sell on the streets. In less than two hours, all of them had been snatched away! Right now, there were over a hundred people surrounding the store, clamoring to buy books! Moreover, there are more and more people. In a short while, even the door will explode from the pressure! "

Song Min said: "If we knew that this book would be so easy to sell, we would have published more!"

Song Qing said: "Why don't we rush through the night to print a few hundred more books? If we start now, we should be able to print two to three hundred copies tomorrow morning! "

"No way!"

Fei Yan rejected it very seriously!

Zhuo Lei said: "Fei Yan, why not? We're worried about having more hands to reproduce a batch of books! "

Fei Yan said: "No need! We've already made a lot of money from printing this batch of books! "

Zhuo Lei nodded: "About 6000 gold! After deducting the cost, we have earned a net profit of at least five thousand silver taels! "

Song Min was shocked when he heard it, "Wa! So much money? In the past, when we sold books on the streets, we only earned a couple of taels of silver from selling them for a whole day. Now, we earned five thousand taels of silver in less than half a day! It was too powerful! Fei Yan, how did you do it? "

Zhuo Lei also looked at Fei Yan with surprise: "Little sister! You said you had a way to sell all these books in one day! Sure enough, not long after you left, a large number of customers rushed into the store to buy books! He really couldn't meet the demand! I offer a price of ten silvers for one book, and many of them offer fifteen, twenty silvers straight away! "

Song Qing also curiously said: "When Luo Xiaohu and the others and I went to the streets to peddle, they were quickly snatched away! Before I could raise the price, all the books were taken away! In the chaos, there were two or three people who ran away without paying.

Zhuo Lei asked: "Fei Yan, how exactly did you do that?"

Fei Yan laughed faintly: "This is just an ordinary marketing method! In short, the current result was already very satisfactory! Let's not print anymore! I won't be able to earn money by reprinting it! "

Zhuo Lei asked: Why? Why can't you print it again? "

Fei Yan said: "The printing of these books is a moment of novelty, our technology is low, if we can quickly print them in one night, then others can too! I estimate that in the morning, tens of thousands of such Little People's Books will be completely copied and published in our Journey to the West! Therefore, since you've rushed to print it, you won't be able to earn money by selling it tomorrow! "

Zhuo Lei suddenly woke up from his stupor. "That's right! Why didn't I think of it! Journey to the West is such a sensation right now that other booksellers will definitely take our books and print them. Tomorrow morning, there will be a large number of copies on the market! "This way, the price won't be able to be sold!"

Song Min sighed, "What a pity! Such a good book can only be sold for half a day. "

Fei Yan said in a relaxed manner, "This is something that I had long anticipated! "The technology is low and there are no copyright restrictions. Only by walking in front of others can you earn money!"

Zhuo Lei said: "Then what do we do now?"

Song Min said: "Didn't little sister say that this would be the first episode? When will the second story come out? "

Zhuo Lei said: "Yes! Right! We need to get out of the second episode as soon as possible, and take advantage of the fact that everyone in the city is in an uproar, we have an advantage that no one else has! As long as the second issue came out, it would immediately be sold! This time, I think even if I print a thousand copies, I can quickly sell them all! It might even sell us two thousand copies! "

Fei Yan said: "No! Too many! Can't print that much! There are at least forty episodes of this story! If you sell it well, I can extend it to 80 or even 100 episodes! "We can't increase our sales right now, or else after selling a few episodes, we won't be able to sell them at this price!"
