Zhang Tingyu informed Qiu Yun in advance mainly to prevent her from being disgusting, since what she did was indeed unethical.
Furthermore, the fact that her bookstore was open was really affecting Qiu Wen's business. Although he didn't lack money, he felt uneasy about the fact that it was Qiu Wen's money.
I'd rather suffer a loss than let my beloved suffer a loss!
Since Qiu Yun doesn't believe it, then don't blame him for using her as a scapegoat later. After all, in an era when storytelling wasn't very popular, Qiu Yun was indeed a typical example.
Even if Qiu Yun cannot be convicted, it's hard to say what kind of reputation she will gain in the end. At the very least, we should fight for Qiu Wen's interests and freedom within the Qiu family.
Qiu Wen is busy with her breeding business, and Wensi Bookstore has gradually started to release a batch of high-quality, high-grade paper stories with illustrations. These stories are also specially printed with the words "Wensi", making them stand out from the crowd.
In addition, Manager Yu, following Qiu Wen's instructions, specially arranged for a publicity campaign to let everyone know that Wensi Bookstore's publications were the only legitimate ones. As a result, unless they were well-off but not wealthy, most people with some money were willing to buy the genuine stories published by Wensi Bookstore.
For a time, Wensi Bookstore became popular again. Because of its excellent production, the price naturally went up. After calculating, compared with before, it not only did not lose money, but also made a lot of money. This made Manager Yu admire the methods of their young lady.
Wensi Bookstore made money, so Qiu Yun's bookstore naturally made less money. Although it didn't lose money, it was much worse than before, which made Qiu Yun very angry.
She felt that Qiu Wen was deliberately going against her.
At this point, Qiu Yun could no longer clearly define her feelings for Qiu Wen. Even if pushing her into the water was a mistake made in the moment, her attitude of not helping her in her time of need showed that she was not a kind person at heart.
When Wensi Bookstore opened, she casually helped Qiu Wen, but the bookstore wouldn't have been any different without her. This favor was also due to her inner unease.
Because she watched her get better and better, she became increasingly resentful, which led to the engagement party design. When Qiu Wen found out about it, she thought Qiu Wen was lucky, but at the same time, she felt even more indignant.
His mindset became increasingly unbalanced, and he regretted not leaving her before she died in the water, otherwise she wouldn't have suffered so much.
Now she has forgotten that Qiu Wen doesn't owe her anything. There was no need for them to be apart. It was her mindset and jealousy that made her find everything about Qiu Wen unpleasant.
She and Qiu Wen were twin sisters. She received all of her mother's love from childhood to adulthood, while Qiu Wen, as long as she didn't die, she didn't feel any guilt. As a result, when she grew up, Qiu Wen left the Qiu family, became good at making money, and became even better. She couldn't even match Qiu Wen's appearance. Wasn't her mentality becoming more and more unbalanced?
Qiu Yun's mindset is that she can't stand someone she's looked down on since childhood, even if that person is slightly better than her.
"What's going on? Since you asked them and they said to use better quality paper to print the storybooks, why don't you just follow suit and print them too!"
The manager of the bookstore felt something was wrong when he heard this. He wasn't stupid. He had thought about it at first, but those who could afford the finest storybooks naturally wouldn't think of buying their illegitimate stuff. Recently, the whole of Cangzhou had spread the word that anyone who could afford storybooks was willing to spend a little money!
Their bookstores relied on price as their main selling point. They had something to hide before, but now that's gone, their price advantage is negligible.
Although there are still people who are looking for a bargain, it's not as good as it used to be. Besides, the cost of paper and printing is much higher now than it is now, so the cost is not low.
Then the manager explained things to Qiu Yun, but Qiu Yun didn't seem to understand, and directly asked, "Then tell me, what should we do now?"
The manager was also anxious. He was just a manager, and he was indeed quite clever to get the job, but he wasn't particularly talented in business.
He thought for a moment and said, "How about this, Wensi Bookstore is the young lady's bookstore, why don't you have the young lady give you the original map, then the books will be exactly the same, no one will know if they are the same, and then lower the price a bit, most people buy books through the servants in the mansion, and if they want to save some money, they will naturally choose our bookstore."
Qiu Yun immediately refused: "That won't do."
Her relationship with Qiu Wen isn't good these days. Even when she's not fully conscious, she knows Qiu Wen must be unhappy with what she did. She can't bear to beg her for help, and besides, she doesn't think Qiu Wen would agree.
Qiu Yun said, "Why don't you send someone to buy their books, and then find a group of people who are good at imitation to make the same ones as them?"
The manager thought to himself, "Wouldn't this be even more troublesome and costly?"
He realized that the second young lady and the eldest young lady didn't get along.
"That works too. I'll get on it right away."
Qiu Yun has now become dependent on Qiu Wen's bookstore; she wants to see if Qiu Wen can maintain this stubbornness.
Actually, Qiu Yun had another idea, which she hadn't brought up yet. When Qiu Yun was little, she noticed that Qiu Wen really craved her mother's care. As long as her mother was on her side, or if all else failed, her mother could step in.
Qiu Yun was delighted to see Qiu Wen so heartbroken.
She even fantasized that it would be great if her mother could take Qiu Wen's bookstore as part of her dowry.
She fantasized that it wasn't impossible, after all, her mother was on her side.
It's impossible for a person to start anything, especially when it comes to being a bad person or doing bad things. Once you start, there's no end to it.
