The carriage carried Baicaoshi and her mother towards Qinghuafang in Xishi.
Passing the "Ink Color Bookstore" on the way, the carriage was forced to stop because of a traffic jam ahead.
I saw a long queue outside the store, all of them were women.
"What, the book is sold out? There were still some left a few days ago."
"Tell me, are you going to raise the price again? I heard that there was a price increase before. Your bookstore is called Mo Se. Could it be that your hearts are all black?" It was Da Yan who said this sentence. The only king with a different surname is Xu Ruoran, the daughter of Zhenbei Wang Xu Zhenbei.
The manager made a bitter face, and apologized to these people, "No, the books are indeed sold out. The previous wave of price increases was not to take advantage of the fire, but to see the profit. It is really the price of paper. up."
Zhe Yu's prophecy, "Yanjing Zhigui" really happened. Baicao Poetry can guess that many women actually want to grasp the husband's heart more firmly.
Bai Li opened the curtain, looked at it for a while, and said: "This Yanjing is so big, there are really many wonders. Who would have thought that women would rush to the streets for a book. But fortunately, I made an early move." , bought a copy."
Baicaoshi was stunned for a moment, and coughed in embarrassment. This ink color bookstore is the one she bought earlier, and what the customers want to buy is "Four Seasons Healthy Medicine". "Mom, tell me in advance what you want to buy next time."
Bai Li smiled, remembering the embarrassment of breaking eight-petaled flowers for a penny in the past in Baishui Village, "It doesn't take a lot of money to buy a book, mother is not bad."
Baicaoshi knew that her mother was thinking wrongly, so she covered her mouth and smiled, "Mother, I opened this bookstore. If you like it, I will give you a hardcover copy, which is more comfortable to read."
Bai Li was stunned for a moment, thinking about the things her daughter did, which one was not earth-shattering, and she was relieved. "You, don't push yourself too hard, you're too tired."
"Never tired, not tired, just do it smoothly."
Baicaoshi got out of the carriage, went around the side door and entered the bookstore. Seeing her coming, the shopkeeper immediately poured out his bitterness. "The printing of this book can't keep up with what everyone bought, and it is true that the price of paper has increased once before."
The price increase of paper may not be the real law of the market, and some people may take the opportunity to make trouble. Baicaoshi said: "In this way, you tell everyone that if you are willing to wait seven more days, the first thousand customers who place an order can upgrade to the hardcover version signed by the author at the original price."
The shopkeeper has been defeated, can the business still do this? It really refreshed my cognition. "Then, our cost will rise."
Baicaoshi waved her index finger up and said, "Do you know what the biggest competition we are about to face is?"
The shopkeeper didn't think about it carefully. If he could think of this level, he wouldn't be forced to be cornered and unable to continue his business. "Madam please advise."
"Piracy. Your book is so popular that other people take it and print it, which is cheaper than yours. What do you do?" Baicaoshi remembered that the problem of piracy cannot be solved even in modern times, let alone in ancient times when there was no sense of copyright. .
The shopkeeper suddenly realized, and slapped his forehead, "Madam is brilliant. Our hardcover is a good strategy against piracy. The quality upgrade price remains the same, and everyone will only feel that they have made a profit. Then the attractiveness of piracy will be reduced."
Baicaoshi pondered for a moment, and made another move, "Plan it up. In the future, Mose Bookstore will launch a 'Madam's Living Room' themed event every half a month for member customers who have reached a certain level of consumption. During the period, the bookstore will organize medicinal and cooking exchanges. , each issue has a medicinal diet that is not in the book; in addition, there are speeches on how to get along with husband and wife, helping customers maintain the freshness of marriage."
The shopkeeper listened attentively. Every time Baicao uttered a sentence, he blinked his eyes, obviously he could hear every word clearly, it was so fresh together. How could there be so many wonderful ideas in Madam's head.
"Got it, we made a note."
When going out, Baicaoshi deliberately brought a mu fence to keep quiet, and still went out through the side door.
On the side of the bookstore is a mutton restaurant, which is also a time-honored restaurant in Yanjing. It's not a big sign like the first floor in the world, but the taste is authentic, and there are many people on weekdays.
It's not time for lunch, but unfortunately, when Baicaoshi raised her eyes, she saw a figure at the window on the second floor. The man was dressed in red, and he was very enthusiastic. He was leaning against the window, playing with a small slingshot in his hand, lazily.
It is Feng Wang Ying Zhefeng.
Seeing Ying Zhefeng here, is it a coincidence or someone did it on purpose?
Baicaoshi was surprised, and then she thought of the rumors in the market.
Zhenbei King's daughter, Xu Ruoran, has already reached the age of marriage. Because of the special relationship with Wang with a different surname, Xu Ruoran's marriage can be said to be second only to Shen Liqing, the destined phoenix girl.
Marriage with a courtier is a huge threat to the imperial power, but if you marry the prince, it will greatly affect the direction of the prince.
Among the grown-up princes, the eldest son King Ming was imprisoned, and the seventh son died. Among the more outstanding ones, only the eldest son King Li and the old King Jiufeng remained. King Li already has a concubine, but King Weifeng has not yet married a concubine.
It stands to reason that King Feng is the most suitable candidate.
Could it be that King Feng is here to block Xu Ruoran?
Baicaoshi's mind was tactful, and as he was thinking, a white-faced and beardless man entered the restaurant.
This is also what Baicaoshi has seen, the father-in-law in Fusi Palace.
Ying Zhefeng didn't come here for Xu Ruoran, but for Concubine Si?
Thinking that her mother was still waiting outside, Baicaoshi couldn't hang around, so she ordered the temporary coachman Xiao Chonglou to observe secretly. Then she went to Qinghuafang with her mother.
Today, Jiuniang and Duan Shaoyi are both here.
Six girls stood in a row, each with a gentle and pleasant temperament, all wearing a blue and white porcelain dress.
This opinion was put forward by Duan Shaoyi. Clothes can only show their beauty when they are worn on the body. Baicaoshi agreed to this suggestion.
The two-in-one identity of a salesperson and a model, wearing a custom-made fashion jersey to sell clothes, caused quite a stir in Yanjing.
Jiuniang made a statement to Baicaoshi. "Shaoyi said before that the red song girl is good at dancing, and she can dance to the city. So the result of our discussion is that the wedding dress plus some related designs, as you can see, this kind of water sleeves, this kind of Cantonese embroidered fairy dress, and more There are these. Pick one."
The girls were full of energy and made a good first impression in front of the shopkeeper. Baicaoshi turned to Baili, "Mother, which one do you think is better?"
Bai Li was very excited, touched these blue and white porcelains full of texture, "They are all so beautiful, I can't tell them apart, what do you say, Shishi."
Baicaoshi also chooses obstacles.
Seeing this, Duan Shaoyi said, "Let me choose all of them. Shopkeeper, Hongqu is not only your sibling, but also your partner and my best friend. How about these few dresses, three for me, three for you, and one for you?" And give it to Hongqu."
