Before Ruan Suhe chose the next book, Zhou Aixue hurriedly took two steps forward and corrected her in a hoarse voice, as if what she said was the most correct.
"Oh! Doctor Zhou, you know the situation in our family."
"Zhengxiang is the only one in our family who can read. The two children are still young and can't even recognize all the pinyin. We can only ask Zhengxiang to read it to us~"
Ruan Suhe didn't say that she was wrong. She deliberately showed her little woman's attitude and emphasized the importance of Lu Zhengxiang in the family in both explicit and implicit ways.
"You guys? I bought this book for two kids, so why did it become you guys?"
Now it was Zhou Aixue's turn to be dumbfounded. What kind of expression was this? She couldn't understand Chinese...
"Yes, why not us? After we buy these books, we can only read them at night when Zhengxiang has time. Isn't it that he tells bedtime stories to the three of us when he reads at night?"
Ruan Suhe was really good at picking out the key points when she spoke, and they were all the key points that Zhou Aixue didn't want to hear at all.
"You! How can you be so filthy? You are a country bumpkin, and you still need Brother Zhengxiang to tell you a story. Do you understand?"
...
...
"Doctor Zhou doesn't need to worry about this. Even if I don't understand and my two children don't understand, he will patiently explain it to us."
"Or sometimes, when the child falls asleep, Zhengxiang will whisper in my ear until I understand~"
Ruan Suhe was ready to make matters worse, so when she was explaining, they were originally two steps apart.
She deliberately took a step forward, put her head close to Zhou Aixu's ear, half-covered her mouth with one hand, and whispered the last sentence.
After saying this, she acted shyly.
"You! You country bumpkin! You have no shame!"
After hearing what was said, Zhou Aixue didn't know what was going on in her mind. Her cheeks turned red and she complained angrily, but she didn't have any more words to vent her inner unhappiness.
"Just wait for me. I will make sure Brother Zhengxiang sees your true colors!"
"Ah! Then I have to thank Dr. Zhou in advance. Hehe, I think Zhengxiang will like me more when I am bolder~"
Ruan Suhe was not afraid. As a new type of woman in the 21st century, she was not shy at all about such things.
In Zhou Aixue's eyes, her appearance seemed like a stain on Lu Zhengxiang.
"Okay, just wait for me!"
Zhou Aixue held the medical book she needed in her hand, stomped her feet angrily, turned around and walked to the cashier to pay.
"Okay, Dr. Zhou. Take care. I won't see you off."
Ruan Suhe's ability to irritate people was no exaggeration. Just as Zhou Aixue paid the bill and was about to leave the bookstore, she added another greeting.
Zhou Aixue's foot, which was about to step over the threshold, paused and she almost tripped.
When Zhou Aixue was about to fall, she quickly grabbed the door frame next to her and avoided falling.
Then, he turned around unhappily and glared at her fiercely.
Ruan Suhe showed no sign of being angry when she received the cold stare. Instead, she hummed a song happily.
This is clearly a self-congratulatory victory.
Now that no one was disturbing her, she chose books much faster.
Simple and straightforward, if you like a book, just put it in your arms without even looking at the price on the back of the cover.
It took her more than half an hour to finish picking out the books, but fortunately she controlled the number and picked only a few that she could carry.
"No, can you use all of these?"
The bookstore owner asked uncertainly as he looked at the pile of books in her arms that was higher than her head.
"Don't worry, boss. Even if I don't need these books, I'll still read them to kill time when I'm bored."
The only reason Ruan Suhe bought so many books was not to read to the two little kids.
But, mobile phones and televisions were not yet widely available, so she could only pass the time by reading.
"Are you sure you want to buy all these books? My bookstore hasn't had such high sales in a long time. Once the books in my bookstore are sold, they cannot be returned or exchanged. You should think carefully about this."
The bookstore owner calculated the total price of all the books and told her the rules of the bookstore.
"Boss, don't worry, I won't return the books I bought. I can't get enough of them."
Ruan Suhe made this assurance while looking around the entire bookstore.
"Boss, I think your bookstore has a good atmosphere, but why do you say that the sales volume is not high?"
She really likes this bookstore. It is antique and any normal person would come in to take a walk and have a look.
"Oh, you don't know, recently there are vendors coming from nowhere, specializing in selling second-hand books, the prices are incredibly cheap."
"My old customers have all gone to the stalls to buy second-hand books. Sometimes my store's daily revenue is no more than the price of a book."
It would have been better if Ruan Suhe didn't mention this. Once she did, the bookstore owner started to complain.
"I see. Although you will lose some customers, your bookstore still has advantages."
"Boss, look, the corner at the back of your bookstore can actually be set up as a reading corner."
"The books in this reading corner are all books that customers have read too many times or have damaged covers and cannot be sold. We can reuse them."
“This way, you can not only win over your old customers, but also attract some new customers.”
"If this person spends a whole day reading books at your place, he will feel that he has gotten a great deal, so he will feel a little sympathetic and feel embarrassed to read books. In the end, he will buy a book of similar or lower price."
"Besides, some people get used to reading books from you, and over time it will cause a butterfly effect."
"That is to say, people who read books will actively promote your reading corner. More and more people come to read books, which means there will be more and more consumers."
After Ruan Suhe learned the reason for the bookstore's low income, he immediately used the future 21st Century Bookstore's operating model to give advice to the boss.
"You, is this idea feasible? I have a lot of unsold books. It's not difficult to set up a book corner, but I don't know if it will be as exaggerated as you say."
The bookstore owner had never done such a thing before, so he remained skeptical.
"Boss, is it possible? This is just a last-ditch effort. You know that a lean camel is bigger than a horse."
"No matter what you do, the bookstore's turnover will only go up, not down, don't you think?"
Ruan Suhe did not specifically explain why the success rate of this matter would reach more than 80%. She just simply stated the basic principles.
"That's true, but..."
"Whatever. Just like you said, we can try our best. Anyway, the situation can't be worse than it is now."
"Oh, thanks to your advice, I'll give you a discount on these books today. The total is one hundred and twelve. I'll round off the price and charge you one hundred. Is that okay with you?"
The bookstore owner hesitated for a few seconds, but suddenly he came to his senses and decided not only to give her a discount, but also to give her a discount.
