Chapter 239 Adding a fire in time

Knowing that today is the day when Zhao Chen's Wangyou Bookstore opened, the several shopkeepers of the aristocratic family were filled with joy.
Of course, they were not happy for Zhao Chen.
But because they can make Zhao Chen look dirty today.
They received an order from their respective owners two days ago, and they must make Zhao Chen’s reputation lose his reputation on the day the bookstore opens.
Although these shopkeepers have some status in their respective families, in the eyes of their respective heads, they are just high-level servants.
But it was the first time I was suddenly summoned by my respective heads.
Several people were waiting happily to make Zhao Chen look ugly.
"I heard it was a book called "Stone Book" which made many ladies from the officials' families love it. Most of the sedan chairs were the ladies from the officials' families." Manager Wang explained.
In fact, they had known about this before.
He even knew that Zhao Chen recommended this book to all officials in front of the emperor at the Tai Chi Palace Super Conference.
But no one expected that so many ladies from officials came here today.
"Just just attract attention. They haven't bought a piece of paper these days, let alone printed it."
"I'll see how they can get the book out later." The shopkeeper Cui sneered.
Several people were hiding in the crowd, looking indifferently at the door of Wangyou Bookstore in front of them.
At the door of Wangyou Bookstore, Zhao Chen stood behind a stack of books.
Beside him were Li Ruoshuang, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu.
On both sides of the bookstore, there were some strong men standing.
There are also two old shopkeepers.
These people were found by Li Ruoshuang and the others.
For future bookstore management.
"Is that Zhao Chen, the Marquis of Wannian County? He looks so beautiful!"
"I heard that the Stone Record was written by him. I didn't expect that Zhaoxian Hou was so young and had such ability."
"It's really a rare husband."
"It's enough to think about it. Next to him was Li Ruoshuang, the only daughter of Duke Wei, who was standing there. Li Ruoshuang was pursuing the Marquis of Zhao County."
"The Marquis of Zhao County is both talented and beautiful, so it is OK to be his concubine."
"You are crazy, you are the princess, are you a concubine?"
At the door of Wangyou Bookstore, a group of ladies from officials' homes whispered.
The eyes that looked at Zhao Chen were filled with stars.
Some princesses even threatened to be a concubine for Zhao Chen, but they were shocked by their friends.
"Zhao Chen, have you heard that anyone is willing to be a concubine for you?" Cheng Chumo leaned into Zhao Chen's ears, his eyes full of envy.
No matter how small the voice was, Li Ruoshuang could hear it clearly and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
Cheng Chumo felt the chill around him, and his head suddenly shrank and he took several steps away from Zhao Chen.
"Zhao Chen, it's almost time, it's time to announce the opening of the business." Li Ruoshuang was a little afraid of the hot gazes looking at Zhao Chen in front of him, so he quickly urged Zhao Chen.
Looking at the sun above my head, it was almost noon.
And the street in front is even more crowded.
"Okay, let someone open the door." Zhao Chen nodded.
Behind him, there was a strong man who opened the six doors of the bookstore.
But at this glance, I didn’t see many books.
It even looks a bit shabby.
"this……"
"Didn't you agree to release the follow-up to the Stone Book today? Why are there only a few books?"
"It's not a lie, right? I got up early, but I just wanted to buy a follow-up to the Stone Book. If not..."
"If not, I must have a fire from this bookstore."
Seeing that there were not many books in the bookstore, everyone who had been waiting on the street for a long time frowned.
They all came to buy books, but the things in front of them were not enough for them as adults.
Many people were a little annoyed immediately.
"Haha, Zhao Chen is indeed seeking death. He dares to sell his books without books." Cui's shopkeeper showed a joke on his face.
He thought that Zhao Chen was indeed defeated by his own means.
"I feel that when Zhao Chen starts selling the storybooks later, we can add another fire." Manager Wang sneered.
"Oh? What's the solution?" The rest of the people looked curious.
"So..." Manager Wang said slowly.
"Haha, a good idea. In this way, Zhao Chen will definitely lose his reputation."
"I will do what you do. Today I will make Zhao Chen go back in shame."
"Dare to fight with us, just a county marquis, do you really think that you can make a big splash?"
Several people sneered, squeezed through the crowd, and walked forward.
...
"Today, Wangyou Bookstore opened. Thank you for your kindness, I will come here to celebrate the bookstore."
"As a thank you, all the books are sold for 20% off today."
"Wangyou Bookstore, opens!"
Zhao Chen stood in the center. After saying that he had opened his business, he saw firecrackers exploded beside him.
The sound exploded, it was very lively.
"I want to read the Stone Book, sell me one!"
"I want it too, I want it too. This is twenty-month, I will get one myself."
"Hey, don't rob, can you line up?"
"Line? What line? Whoever grabs it first is who it is!"
Before the firecrackers stopped, a group of ladies from officials' houses and students who were moved by the news came straight to the books at the door.
Those who rushed to the front directly grabbed a storybook, threw the money aside, turned around and left.
There were even more crowds of people behind me, and there were constant scolding.
I just didn't fight.
In a moment, all the books piled up outside were snatched away.
The person who grabbed the storybook happily walked over to read it. The person who didn't catch the storybook was now even more focused on the books in the bookstore.
However, there are actually fewer books there than outside.
"Zhaoxianhou, what's going on with your bookstore? Are there only a few books?"
"I think you should not open your bookstore."
Someone failed to grab the book and was stopped by the strong man in front of him.
I stopped doing it immediately.
"Do you still sell this book? Let's go in and buy it. I've been waiting all morning. Did you tell me that there is no book?"
"Take the book out quickly, otherwise I will order your shop with a torch."
There were another noise after another.
There was a sense of excitement on the whole street.
"Everyone, there are still books. Don't worry, line up one by one, come one by one..."
"You fart, where do you have any books here?" Manager Wang walked out of the crowd at the gesture of Manager Cui's shopkeeper, pointed at Zhao Chen's nose and scolded.
This is the time for the crowd to be excited, and it is a good time for them to add fuel to the fire.
"You are right. Where can you have books here? If you don't take out the books today, I will definitely burn your shop."
"Take out the book, otherwise you won't be able to leave today." The other shopkeepers also urged them.
"Everyone, the bookstore really has books, please line up." Zhao Chen said to everyone with a bitter face, as if he was begging.
"There is a book? There's a lot, Zhao Chen, if you have books here, we want as much as we want, and we buy them for thirty ceremonies, how about?" The shopkeeper of Cui smiled grimly and walked out of the crowd.
Chapter completed!
