The bookstore was very lively, and every clerk was selling books to customers, including "Strange Tales from the Mountains and Seas". Ah Qiang was more observant, and quickly asked another clerk to entertain the customers, while he came forward and said, "Master Xun!"
Xun Zhiyin nodded with satisfaction: "How is business lately?"
Ah Qiang smiled and said, "Very good! Lord Xun, you don't know, since following the young master, our paper shop and bookstore have come back to life."
Xun Zhiyin nodded with satisfaction: "Well done! Hurry up and bring the account book over to me."
"ah?"
A Qiang hesitated: "This... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. The master said that only he and Miss Hua Chao can access the account book."
Xun Zhiyin frowned: "What? You can't even look at me? Do you listen to the young master or Shang Yin?"
"Definitely listen to Shang Yin!"
Ah Qiang sighed, "Sir! Please don't embarrass me. It is true that the young master has the final say in this bookstore, but after all, Miss Hua Chao is here too..."
"Okay! I don't blame you."
Xun Zhiyin gave up the idea. He could use the commercial seal to pressure his clerks, but he didn't dare to be impolite to Hua Chao. Moreover, he felt more at ease when he heard him say that Ying Wuji had the final say in the bookstore.
And he said he would listen to Shang Yin, which made his guess correct.
But he still looked at Aqiang: "You have been working here for quite a while, tell me how much you have earned!"
Ah Qiang glanced around, pulled Xun Zhiyin into a corner, held out a finger, and said in a low voice: "To be honest, sir, at least three hundred taels a day!"
Three hundred taels, a day!
Wouldn’t that be nine thousand taels a month?
This, this, this!
With a monthly income of nearly ten thousand taels, what other industry in the country can reach this level?
"Good! Good! Good!"
Xun Zhi and Yin Xi were overwhelmed.
A Qiang became more and more excited as he spoke: "Not only that! I overheard the young master say last time that we haven't opened up the production line yet. Once we become famous, countries all over the world will come to us to wholesale books. By then, it won't be impossible for us to make ten times the profit!"
ten times!
Wouldn’t that be 100,000 taels per month?
Xun Zhiyin's breathing became rapid.
"only……"
Aqiang was a little hesitant.
Xun Zhiyin frowned and urged, "Just what?"
"I said, please don't be angry, sir!"
"Hurry up and tell me!"
Ah Qiang sighed softly, "It's a pity for the young master. I often see him drowning his sorrows in alcohol, saying that it's a pity that he has so much talent but can only stay here as a lowly merchant, and all the credit goes to Lord Xun. He is dissatisfied and wants to snatch the merchant seal, but he has no way to go up to heaven or down to earth."
Xun Zhiyin only felt as if something was pulling the corner of his mouth, making it rise wildly.
But he felt that he should not act too mean, after all, he was not a mean person.
He put on an indifferent look and said, "Young Master is of noble birth, how can you engage in such a lowly business? It will make people laugh at you when you return to Gan State. Young Master is the pillar of Gan-Li's diplomatic relations. I will take care of this business for you!"
Xun Zhiyin walked around the bookstore with his hands behind his back, looking fearless, and greeted the employees cordially before leaving humming a little tune. The more talented Ying Wuji was, the greater the credit he had for suppressing him.
He has already transmitted the situation here back to Gan Country through secret methods.
During the grand gathering of hundreds of families, the Ying Wuque lineage will send an important figure to take over the paper shop and the bookstore, and then he will have made a great contribution.
Ah Qiang watched him leave and hurried to the accounting office: "Boss! Xun Zhiyin is gone."
"Um……"
Hua Chao responded calmly.
A Qiang didn't understand: "Why did you ask me to tell him how much money we made?"
Am I flattering?
I was pretending!
After the last training in various major bookstores, Aqiang felt that his acting skills were already very stable.
But he didn't understand why he should tell the truth to Xun Zhiyin.
He was not an ungrateful person. He knew clearly who treated him well and who treated him badly, who treated him like a dog and who took him to make money. If Hua Chao had not told him to do so, he would at most nod to Xun Zhiyin for Shang Yin's sake.
Hua Chao smiled and said, "Don't worry about it, just do it!"
How can I make Xun Zhiyin feel the gap if I don't bring him back to his senses?
Now, she really wanted to vent her anger for Ying Wuji.
My good brother is handsome and kind-hearted. He is able to put aside our prejudices and even take me to make money. How can such a good person be bullied by a fence-sitter like you?
She waved her hand: "Okay! Go and entertain the guests!"
Ah Qiang could only nod: "Okay! Shopkeeper!"
"etc!"
"Boss, do you have any other instructions?"
"The shopkeeper is the shopkeeper, and the boss is the boss. Remember not to call him by the wrong name next time!"
“…Okay, Boss!”
“The boss is so rude.”
"Then I'll call you..."
"Call me the boss lady, and tell the other guys too."
"Okay, boss lady!"
Hua Chao pursed her lips and finally revealed a satisfied smile.
She sat down, looked at the account book filled with notes, and felt unprecedented peace of mind.
These days, although I’m not being courted by so-called talented and romantic men, I feel extremely fulfilled inside.
There is a person who can give you an unparalleled sense of security just by standing next to you.
And I am not completely useless to him.
"If I could be with him..."
Hua Chao paused and spat softly: "Shame on you! You even want to target your good brother."
She smiled and shook her head, then took out a bronze mirror from her arms. The woman in the mirror was still gentle and charming, like the peach blossoms in March, which were in full bloom.
