Chapter 61 The shopkeeper, there are no more books!(1/2)

"So many officials went to that library, how could I not get any news?"

An older shopkeeper muttered to himself with confusion.

Although they are just small shopkeepers of a bookstore, they have close contact with the officials in Chang'an City, no matter how big or small, they are.

Moreover, not to mention anything else, at least half of the officials in Chang'an City are from the family behind them.

"No, I have to go over and take a look!"

Suddenly, the old shopkeeper slapped the table and stood up.

"Shopkeeper Cui?"

On the side, everyone looked at Manager Cui in surprise.

"Shopkeeper Cui, why is this? In Chang'an City, what is the status of several bookstores we wait for? Do you still have to be afraid of a small library that is ignorant of its height?"

"That is, no matter how popular the business of the opposite library is, it is just because the two books that sell 100 essays are bought by the officials, and they will definitely not go to this library again."

"At that time, I just need to wait for the shopkeeper of the library opposite and come here to make tea and apologize for me!"

"Oh, you are not curious about what books those two books are? Who wrote them?"

Manager Cui asked slowly.

"this?"

Suddenly, all the shopkeepers looked stunned.

Although they are arrogant, they are still a shopkeeper and are still very curious about the books they have made.

"Shopkeeper Cui, then I can't go there myself, call me a guy and just go there and buy a few copies!"

“That’s right!”

"That's good!"

After thinking for a while, Manager Cui slowly sat down.

soon.

Several new books with a strong ink smell were placed in front of everyone.

“Such binding!”

Everyone was a shopkeeper for many years. Just a glance, his face couldn't help but look gloomy.

"Everyone, is it really not produced in your bookstore at home?"

"How is this possible? How could our family sell such books at a low price and open a new library?"

"Are they the ones in Jiangnan?"

"Um?"

When everyone heard this, they looked surprised and then they were full of doubts.

"Do you think this book is more familiar?"

Suddenly, a shopkeeper muttered in a low voice in a little hesitant manner, then took a copy of "Number Arithmetic" and started reading it.

At the same time, when some shopkeepers heard this, they couldn't help but think of something.

He quickly lowered his head and started looking.

"Number arithmetic..."

"Everyone, my Wang Family Bookstore has some things to deal with, so Wang said goodbye first!"

"It seems that there is something wrong with my Zheng Family Bookstore, so I'll take it first!"

"My Lu family..."

"Oh, why do you guys have to leave suddenly?"

After a while, the shopkeepers suddenly left, which made the shopkeeper confused.

"Shopkeeper, what's wrong?"

The shopkeeper next to him also looked at him at a loss.

"Go, go to the opposite Tianxia Library and buy ten books... No, these two books are twenty books!"

But unexpectedly, as soon as he came into the book shop, he found that his shopkeeper suddenly changed his face and directly gave him four jin of money.

"yes"

After hearing this, the shop clerk hurriedly ran out.

In a short while, he ran over with forty books from the Tianxia Library opposite.

At the same time.

The shopkeepers who returned to the book shops quickly withdraw a few stakes from the cabinets and hand them over to the shop shops, asking their guys to hurry to buy books.

...

In the Tianxia Library.

"Shopkeeper, there is no book anymore!"

A shop clerk found Li Hou, who was busy collecting money, with a sweat on his face.

"If you don't have any books, go to the bookstore to move!"

Li Hou didn't raise her head, and said directly.

"The shopkeeper has moved twice, and now there is no bookstore!" the shopkeeper shouted.

"Impossible, the warehouse has accumulated 40,000 books, how could it be gone!"

"The shopkeeper, it's sold out!"

“Sold all?”

"It's really sold, the shopkeeper, and there are still many book customers who have paid the money and are waiting outside!"

"Wait, register these book customers first, and at the same time, no deposit will be charged. I will go find the book now!"

After saying that, Li Hou hurriedly ran out.

...

A quarter of an hour later.

Li Hou was already standing in Xiande Hall.

"You said all the books have been sold out?"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian and Li Gang couldn't help but look surprised.

"When you go back to Your Highness, you have sold out 20,000 copies. Now, many people still have paid the money but can't get the books, so they are guarding outside the library!"

Li Hou replied quickly.

"Go and find some books from Yu Gui and Xie Siyun!"

Li Chengqian said quickly.

"When you go back to Your Highness, when the villain passed, there were not a few books left in the library of Yu Gui and Xie Si. Now it is probably all sold out!" Li Hou looked helpless.

"A total of 20,000 books, which add up to 40,000 books, how could it be sold so quickly?"

Li Chengqian looked disbelief.

"Your Highness, it's only been less than three days. If you follow the enthusiasm of these people, you can still sell at least 60,000!"

Li Hou said excitedly with her face.

"Print, be sure to print as soon as possible!"

Li Chengqian's face was happy and said quickly.

At the same time, a hint of joy appeared on Li Gang's face next to him.

These two books were sold so quickly that although he couldn't get a penny, he also participated in the layout and binding of these books throughout the process, and he still felt very accomplished.

"Your Highness is wise!"

Li Hou said quickly.

"Li Hou, please explain first and let those people come tomorrow. Now, even if the bookstore speeds up printing, they can only print out five thousand copies tomorrow. We must explain it to those people clearly. You three companies can sell up to five thousand copies every day, so that they don't worry!"

After thinking about it, Li Chengqian said again.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Li Hou nodded and said again: "Your Highness, there are more than 2,000 guan in the library now. You have to send someone as soon as possible to take all the money away! Put it in the library, the villain dares not go back at night, and stays in the library all night, for fear that someone will steal the money!"

"Don't worry about this matter, someone will be going to get the money later!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

After saluting and thanking Li Chengqian, Li Hou said goodbye.
