Yun Duoduo continued.
The first day's books are usually sold to loyal fans or readers who are eager to see the content.
She remembered that when she used to watch TV dramas, she would often buy advance viewing tickets to unlock the finale in advance, and the same principle applied to reading storybooks.
"The quality of the books for the second day can be slightly lower, but the handwriting must be clear. At the same time, we need to ensure that there are enough to sell." "Hmm, I understand. Those who come to buy books on the first day must be eager to read them and are wealthy customers."
Guan Guan nodded to indicate that she understood.
"Those who come to buy it on the third or tenth day are probably just looking at the storybook for fun, and aren't in a hurry to know the plot," Guan Guan said.
"Yes, and even if other bookstores plagiarize, our storybooks and pamphlets will still be sold at extremely low prices, and people will still come to us to buy them."
"Even if they don't buy from us, other bookstores can't set too high a price, so they won't make much money."
Yun Duoduo analyzed, "Since they can't make money, they will gradually stop doing such thankless things."
"Princess, what a brilliant idea!"
Guan Guan's eyes lit up; she knew the princess must have a solution.
"It just occurred to me. We can't let down the trust of customers who come to buy books on the first day. We have to provide the best service."
"I think we could hire a storyteller, and any customer who buys a storybook on the first day of its release can listen to three free storytelling performances every month."
Are there any places in the bookstores where storytelling and storytelling can be performed?
Yun Duoduo recalled the layout of the bookstore she had visited last time, but she hadn't stayed long, so she hadn't seen it very clearly.
Guan Guan nodded: "Yes, it's on the second floor. It was originally a place for customers to have tea and rest."
"Well, then we should make good use of that place."
Yun Duoduo could almost imagine that the bookstore would become even more popular once it had a place for storytelling.
"Customers can also deposit a sum of money at the bookstore. These customers who deposit money will receive the latest and updated storybooks as soon as they are published, and we will deliver them to their door."
As Yun Duoduo shared her thoughts, Guan Guan, unaware of what was happening, brought over a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, and was quickly jotting down Yun Duoduo's words on the paper.
"Alright, I'll go back and do as the princess says."
Guan Guan was very satisfied, looking at Yun Duoduo with admiration and respect.
The princess is so clever!
Unlike other young ladies from wealthy families who only wanted to stay in their boudoirs and raise children, Guan Guan wanted to have her own career. The effort she put into the bookstore made her feel it was all worthwhile, and being busy in the bookstore made her feel fulfilled.
After the two parted, Guan Guan prepared to leave the palace and return to the bookstore to instruct the manager on how to handle the plagiarism.
Yun Duoduo collapsed onto the bed and continued to sleep soundly.
The best thing about being a princess is that you don't have to worry about food or drink, you don't have to earn money, you don't have to work like a corporate slave, and you can just lie in bed and sleep soundly when you're tired.
However, being a princess also meant enduring the tragic fate of being sent to another country for a political marriage, and possibly dying in a foreign land.
Yun Duoduo covered her head with the cup. She didn't want to think about these things right now; she just wanted to have a nice, comfortable sleep.
...
Guan Guan pondered Yun Duoduo's words as she walked, and soon left Fu Shuang Palace, arriving at the palace gate.
"Canned goods!"
Someone behind her called out to her.
Guan Guan, who was already deep in thought, was startled.
"You've come to see Duo'er?" the person behind her continued to ask.
Guan Guan turned around and was momentarily stunned when he saw the young man in front of him.
Is this Sun Huohuo?
She hadn't seen Sun Huohuo for some time, and she hadn't expected him to have changed so much.
When they were children studying together, he would often catch grasshoppers to scare her, and as a prank, he would tie the ribbon around her waist to the table leg and secretly replace her books, making it impossible for her to answer the teacher's questions.
Sun Huohuo would even secretly remove her chair when she stood up to answer a question, causing her to fall to the ground and embarrass herself in front of everyone.
But now...
Sun Huohuo, who used to bully others, has grown into a tall, upright young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, exuding righteousness.
His face no longer held that mischievous look, but instead carried the spirited air unique to a young man.
"Yes, I came to talk to the princess and was just about to leave."
Guan Guan spoke softly, her face slightly flushed, still somewhat unaccustomed to Sun Huohuo's change.
"Are you going back to the manor?"
Sun Huohuo noticed that there was no one else around her and looked at her with some unease.
"Guan Guan, let me take you home!"
After saying this, Sun Huohuo waved and summoned the carriage before Guan Guan could reply.
"Send the jars back to the Guan residence."
After speaking to the coachman, Sun Huohuo waved to Guan Guan and turned to leave, instructing his guards to escort Guan Guan back.
Actually, he originally wanted to take Guan Guan home himself and have a good chat with her on the way.
Since the group of friends who studied together grew up, they have all been busy with their own lives and haven't had time to get together and chat properly.
Sun Huohuo watched the carriage drive away into the distance, feeling a little disappointed.
However, he couldn't chase after her to take her home.
After all, both Guan Guan and he were of marriageable age. If they rode in the same carriage, people would inevitably gossip, and Guan Guan was a woman who was very sensitive about her appearance.
It's best not to put her in a difficult position!
...
Sun Huohuo gritted his teeth, turned around, and walked in another direction.
Let's go see Duoduo first. Something so terrible has happened; her eyes must be swollen from crying!
He rushed to Fushuang Palace, and before even entering the courtyard, he started shouting loudly.
"Duo'er! Duo'er! How have you been lately?!"
"Duo'er, Duo'er, it's been so long! Have you missed me?! I've missed you so much!"
"Duo'er, Duo'er, say something! I know you're in there!"
Yun Duoduo had just lain down in bed, ready to take another nap, when Sun Huohuo woke her up.
She wasn't as good-tempered with Sun Huohuo as she was with Guan Guan.
Lying on the bed, Yun Duoduo opened her mouth and shouted, "You idiot, what are you yelling about so early in the morning?!"
"What kind of incessant calling is this?!" Her voice carried a hint of resentment.
In this era without WeChat or cell phone calls, she never expected to have to endure a barrage of calls from a human.
"You're not going to miss me tomorrow, so why are you calling me that?"
Yun Duoduo angrily yanked the blanket off her head.
