At night, Zhang San was lying on the bed, and the scene of meeting Fang Keying flashed through his mind like a movie.
"I don't like long-distance relationships at all!" Zhang San shouted in his heart.
According to the secular concept, being well matched is like two mountains that force Zhang San and Fang Keying to "separate the two places". The high wall and deep courtyard of the house also prevents Zhang San from meeting Fang Keying at will.
"It's not easy to fall in love, but in this era, we can't date normally." Zhang San said helplessly.
Zhang San didn't know how he fell asleep that night. When he woke up in the morning, his head felt dizzy. He washed it with cold water twice before he felt better.
"Zhang Fu, drive to Sanwei Bookstore." Zhang San called Zhang Fu and prepared to go to the bookstore to see how the last plan was implemented.
Changsun Chong and the others stopped going to the bookstore after the initial freshness. In addition, they all had public offices. Elders like Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others did not want their sons to be obsessed with the way of merchants.
Zhang San hasn't seen them for a while. After going to the bookshop today, he invited a few people to come out and get together.
When Zhang San came to the bookstore, shopkeeper Sun quickly saluted Zhang San and said hello: "Hello, Sir!"
"Shopkeeper Sun, let's talk inside. How did my last activity plan go?" Zhang San asked as he walked.
"Sir, you really have a clever plan. When Laishun Bookstore and Hexing Bookstore saw that the books we bought from them were released again, they asked people to come over to buy them. The books we originally brought in, including our own collection, were all
It also sold a lot of them.”
Speaking of this, shopkeeper Sun had to admire Zhang San's methods. Although the books he originally purchased did not make any money, he also sold a lot of his own books. In this way, Sanwei Bookstore became a success.
Profit was achieved immediately.
"Sir, this is the account book. Please take a look at it."
Shopkeeper Sun brought the account book to Zhang San. The accounting method used by Sanwei Bookstore is still the method used in the Tang Dynasty. Since this bookstore is a joint venture between Zhang San, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and Fang Yiai, Zhang San
They didn't bring out the same things as in the commune.
"The income is much less than I expected. After excluding the expenses, I only have a balance of thirty dollars." Zhang San closed the ledger and was not very satisfied with the result.
"My lord, our profit this time is at the level of other bookstores in one or two months. Isn't that still less?" Shopkeeper Sun said with a wry smile.
Sir, this appetite is too big. Bookstores are not like other businesses and have a limited audience. Being able to sell so many at once this time really exceeded shopkeeper Sun's expectations.
Fortunately, Sanwei Bookstore's paper supply and printing are extremely efficient. Zhang San also made inventory preparations and sales requirements in advance, otherwise Sanwei Bookstore would have encountered the same situation as He Xing Bookstore last time.
"Those are other bookstores. Our bookstore is different and cannot be generalized." Zhang San said after drinking water.
The paper of Sanwei Bookstore is directly supplied by the paper mill, and the price is 300 cash per ream, while the price in the market often starts at 600 cash per ream, and it needs to be booked in advance.
At the same time, Sanwei Bookstore uses movable type printing technology to publish books, which is several times more advanced than the current woodblock printing. The quality and cost of publishing books are also 30 to 40% cheaper than the current technology.
According to the Tao Te Ching, the cost of Sanwei Bookshop is only about ten cents, while the cost of other bookshops is at least thirty cents.
That's why Zhang Sancai said that those bookstores that had big sales were really stupid and they really did "sale with tears".
"Shopkeeper Sun, since our books have been thrown out, why haven't we followed up on the subsequent activities?" Zhang San was very dissatisfied when he saw that the activities were still in the first stage.
"Sir, I think it's good now. Our books have been constantly being sold out, so there's no need to lower the price anymore, right?" Shopkeeper Sun asked tentatively.
"You have to know that the purpose of my doing this activity is not just to sell books, but to retaliate in kind." Zhang San said coldly.
When Shopkeeper Sun saw that Zhang San was angry, he was very frightened and quickly replied: "Master Sir, I know my mistake. I will arrange the second phase of the activities immediately."
"Well, this time you are going to publicize it to the outside world and say that Sanwei Bookstore has difficulty in capital turnover due to poor management, and now it will sell all the books at a low price, thirteen cents a book, and sell them in tears." Zhang San saw shopkeeper Sun's attitude of admitting his mistake.
If he is good, there will be no difficulties for him. Talents are cultivated slowly.
"Thirteen cents?" Shopkeeper Sun said in surprise after hearing the price.
"Yes, the price will be reduced in stages according to the quality of the books. The minimum price is thirteen cents per book." Zhang San said with certainty.
"In this way, our bookstore will become the target of public criticism." Shopkeeper Sun knew how much repercussions this price would cause after being sold.
"Didn't you listen to what I said before? We are having a tearful sale. We have poor management and no money. We are selling books for money." Zhang San thought of the brainwashing advertisement of Jiangnan Leather Factory in his previous life, and almost laughed, and quickly drank water to cover it up.
Now that Zhang San has made his decision, shopkeeper Sun dare not say more for fear of causing Zhang San's dissatisfaction again.
"Those bookshops are finished!" Shopkeeper Sun said in his heart.
"By the way, I asked you to find those private schools. How is the matter with the little bookstore owner going?" Zhang San asked.
"Sire, this matter is difficult to handle. I visited various private schools and some bookstores in Chang'an City, and publicized our wholesale price policy for selling books as you said, but no one is willing to buy books from us.
." Shopkeeper Sun said with a bitter smile.
"Oh, is it because those families are behind the scenes?"
Last time Zhang San asked shopkeeper Sun to find more big book buyers and supply them in bulk at wholesale prices, hoping to find a few stable customers for the bookstore.
"Yes, the famous bookstores in Chang'an City have the support of big forces. People in our newly opened bookstore don't really believe it. And I heard from a friend that someone gave them an order. If they dare to enter from our place,
Book at your own risk." Shopkeeper Sun said in a low voice.
"I see. I said that the price of our books is so low, why don't we have any big customers? Huh, if you want to ban me, let's wait and see."
Zhang San snorted coldly. He already knew in his heart who was working against him behind his back. After Chang Sun Chong, Fang Yiai and others stood up to the public, who dared to issue a banning order on him? Apart from the aristocratic families of the Zheng family, who could still
Anyone.
"If you do as I say, I won't believe you. I've ruined several of your bookshops, so why are you trying to ban me?" Zhang Sanhan said in a cold voice.
Zhang San discussed the implementation details with Shopkeeper Sun, and then asked Shopkeeper Sun to print the advertising leaflets, and then distribute the leaflets in several counties around Chang'an to expand the scope of the event and give them more firepower.
"Uncle, the Zheng family, we are not done yet. That old boy Li Shimin doesn't know what he is doing. Hey, the Zheng family is really troublesome." Zhang San sat on the chair and closed his eyes in deep thought, thinking about the next step in the bookstore.
