Ying Wuji was completely speechless: "Can you learn a few more words? They are just helping us in our time of need. What kind of damage have they caused us? Can you call this dealing with someone?"
Wu Dan's expression froze. He thought for a long time, and suddenly a gleam of wisdom flashed in his eyes: "Maybe they want to starve us to death!"
Ying Wuji: “…”
etc!
Something doesn't seem right.
He narrowed his eyes and waved at Aqiang: "Aqiang! Go to other bookstores and have a look. If they buy our books and then destroy them, it will affect our reputation."
To be honest, he was a little confused. If that was true, he was not afraid because it was impossible for those bookstores to keep losing money buying his books and then destroying them, because he would definitely make a profit, but the time for him to become famous would be delayed.
Then there is only one explanation: they want to use a large amount of money to create a vacuum period and let me miss the grand event. If so, I can only develop a few more sets of movable type printing and increase production capacity in advance to break through their blockade.
Very courageous!
What a terrible opponent!
Wu Dan waved his hand and said, "No need, I have already sent someone out... Look! He is back."
Looking outside the door, I saw Wu Dan's followers trotting over: "Sir! I found out that all the major bookstores in Jiangcheng are displaying our "Strange Tales of Mountains and Seas" now."
Wu Dan slammed his thigh hard, his face full of emotion: "There are still many good people in Li Country. They are worried that our newly opened bookstore will not be famous, so they rush to help us in times of need! We want to kill them, but they...really! I am crying! Brother Wuji...are we too evil-hearted?"
Ying Wuji: “…”
To be honest, he was a little confused. He didn't expect that the dream he had last night would all come true, but... why?
He subconsciously looked at the little maid.
Bai Zhi subconsciously shrank her neck, her pretty face turned red, and she was also confused. What, this, this, what is going on?
Although she was sent here and was supposed to help Ying Wuji undress, and even... but the master and servant didn't like each other, and she would be happy to skip this step and have some free time. Now, now... what should she do?
Ying Wuji shook his head, thought of another possibility, and asked, "What is the price they put up?"
The follower held up two fingers: "Two hundred and fifty coins!"
"I see!"
Ying Wuji understood instantly that these people were not trying to delay a vacuum period, but they thought they were losing money to gain publicity.
He bought all of them, reduced the price by fifty cents, and then sold them in his own bookstore.
If you really want to make a profit at a loss, you will definitely lose everything.
Although the results may be magical.
But I have to say that this move is really cruel!
What a terrible opponent...
Ying Wuji's facial muscles twitched and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Wu Dan asked: "Brother Wuji, what should we do now? At first I thought we would be suppressed like crazy, and I was ready to withstand the pressure, but in the end these people just gave me no way out."
Ying Wuji rubbed his head and said, "What can we do? Just keep going! Ah Qiang, the few of you who are responsible for selling books, remember to act miserable tomorrow morning. What kind of feeling is that? Do you understand? Let them feel that you don't want to sell the books to them, but because of their power, you have to sell it to them. It's time to test your acting skills."
A Qiang said with a bitter face: "This, this, this, I don't know how to do this!"
Hua Chao covered her mouth and chuckled: "Don't worry about that, I will teach you!"
"call……"
Ying Wuji let out a long breath, and for a moment he actually felt as if he was floating in the air.
Sure enough, boys with foul mouths usually don’t have bad luck.
I don’t know when these people will be able to react. By then, their defense will definitely be broken collectively, and I’m afraid we’ll suffer another big score.
…
A major event occurred in Jiangcheng, causing a sensation among scholars.
A copy of "Strange Stories from Mountains and Seas" costs two hundred and fifty coins. Would you like it?
And it wasn't just one or two books, but more than 3,000 copies of "Strange Tales from Mountains and Seas" were moved to the shelves of major bookstores overnight, causing a scramble among men and women from powerful and wealthy families. After all, the newest volume of "Strange Tales from Mountains and Seas" had just been published not long ago, and the copyists in various bookstores were exhausted but had not copied a few copies, so many people were waiting.
Who would have thought that suddenly more than 3,000 copies would be circulated, and all of them were sold at a bargain price of 250 wen.
What's going on?
While the scramble was going on, many people discovered one thing.
"Shangmo Bookstore? I've never heard of this bookstore's name!"
"How many copyists does this bookstore have to stock so many copies of "Strange Tales from the Mountains and Seas"?"
"Fools are still thinking about the copyist, while smart people are already guessing about the background of the bookstore owner."
"Oh? How do you mean?"
"Just think about it! Overnight, all the major bookstores started selling books for Shangmo Bookstore. How many connections are there behind this?"
"And more! Look at the price tag on the back of this book. Each copy is clearly 300 wen, but in major bookstores, it's only sold for 250 wen. They are losing money to promote the reputation of Shangmo Bookstore. Can you imagine how powerful this is?"
"That makes sense! But isn't this three hundred coins too much of a show?"
"Why do I seem to have heard another version, saying that Shangmo Bookstore went bankrupt, the bastard boss Wuji ran away with his concubine, and their employees sold the books at such a low price in order to pay their wages..."
