Liu Chuan stood up from the chair, and hurriedly shouted to the assistant: "What are you still doing? Please invite a few bosses in." The
assistant didn't wait to say anything. The owner of the bookstore outside had already come in because he was too eager. Now, the first request I saw Liu Chuan made was. "Editor-in-chief Liu, you must reprint it! It was our employees who were ignorant before, and I have already taught them. It is true that we are wrong, but as long as you agree to reprint, any request will do."
"Yes. ah, Liu editor, I have four or five stores, but there are so many peers, are a few points less, must be printed, ah, after the small bookstore sold out, it will surely come to you. "
several When the boss heard that the small bookstore was also their competitor, his expression became vigilant. There were not many books left. The four big bookstores were not enough for one person to divide a hundred books. A batch has already been sold, so let's give it to them no matter what.
Maybe it was Cao Cao. Cao Cao was there. After a while, the assistant said that there were other bookstore owners waiting outside.
When the owners of the big bookstore heard this, their faces instantly became anxious, and they wished to let Liu Chuan take the key to the storeroom to grab the book.
"Editor Liu, we came first. This book must be given to us!"
Liu Chuan was worried about how to sell the book a minute ago. Now I didn't expect all the big bosses to grab it. All this feels too unpleasant. It's true, but he reacted immediately and happily promised: "Don't worry, there is a first-come-last-come for everything. The remaining books will give you an average score, and they will be printed later, but you will have to wait a few days."
"Then Liu. Editor-in-chief, you can hurry up. Now this book is very
popular. I'm afraid that customers will wait too long, and nights will be long and dreamy." "Don't worry, I will print it as soon as possible."
Several big bookstore owners hurriedly moved to the warehouse after they said it. The book is out, Liu Chuan can only ask the owners of the small bookstores to go back first, and promised to supply the work within a week.
Although it was very uncomfortable not to get the book, but now there is no way, only to check with Liu Chuan again and then go back.
Liu Chuan entertained the bookstore owners, and found someone to install the book and arrange things. Before the arrangement was over, someone visited the publishing house and asked him for the book. After sending him away with the same reason, he recovered from his busy schedule. Suddenly I suddenly realized that I had never been so busy before.
Moreover, he was urged to ask for books behind his ass. This is the first time that a big girl got on the sedan chair. It has never happened in history. Moreover, the inventory of English books has been completely emptied. In fact, it cannot be called inventory. Did not notice the value of the book. But gold will always shine. The same is true for this book. Liu Chuan calculated it. The number of orders from a dozen bookstore owners totaled more than 2,000 copies, which was enough for the publisher to make a fortune.
This book is very popular now, and it is very likely that his publishing house will be brought back to life on the right track. Liu Chuan had a premonition that this could be done. If the sales volume is still only increasing, one more batch should be printed, and then to discuss with Chen Yuan, the second set of "How to Learn English" will be published.
Just as he was thinking, Liu Chuan saw the editors who had collided with him from the corner of the window, and he didn't know what he was talking about.
Liu Chuan was not angry. Now that the book is sold, he has the confidence to endure these people. He said angrily: "Are you all right to do? Dare to be lazy here? Then compare today's salary with this month. All the subsidies were deducted." When
the few people heard that their faces looked like eggplants that had been beaten by frost, they were angry and angry, and they were very unwilling. Why are the books that could not be sold, but now they are all sold? It's too evil.
After the first 500 copies of "How to Learn English" were released, they were quickly sold out by customers, but they were out of stock for a long time. More and more people know how good and how good this book is. It is suitable for children's learning, but unfortunately, when I want to buy a book, I can't buy it. I can only be anxious and check when the book comes, and then I will buy the first one.
Jiang Lili's "Happy Writing" is also on sale. Because they have more publishing channels, they didn't encounter any difficulties when pushing the book. Several major bookstores have also released the new book.
The big bookstore was thinking about the time when English books were out of stock during this period, so the main editor should take an emergency to see if they can sell, just when there are new customers coming in.
The salesperson actively promoted: "This is a new book in our store. It is called "Happy Writing", which is very helpful for writing. You can take a look." The
customer shook his head and said, "Is there a "How to Learn English"? I'm here to buy I don't want this for this English book." The
salesperson accompanied a smiling face: "How to Learn English" is out of stock. It is estimated that the content of this composition will be good until next week. You can read it before you decide." The
customer listened to this. Said, I really took it and read it carefully, and after reading it, he said: "This book is too difficult, my baby is not suitable." The
salesperson said nothing else, thinking that the recommended group is wrong, and waited until they were older. Of customers are recommending it.
It didn't take long before there were really qualified customers. She came forward to recommend it again, and the other side immediately said after seeing it.
"My kids are all in junior high school. You are obviously elementary school composition. I want "How to Learn English"." The
salesperson muttered to himself, why this English book does not have a big age limit for children, and the audience for that composition book is so small. ?
So there is a hunch in my heart that this book doesn't seem to sell well, and there is no way to compare it with English books, and it's even impossible to do it in an emergency.
After sending away the guests, she was scolded for the English book last time, and this time she quickly reported the situation to her boss.
This situation has been going on for a long time, and the boss also thinks this book is problematic, because there are jewels in the front, this book can't be sold at all, and the price of writing paper is more than one dollar more than English books.
They are expensive and difficult to sell. The bookstore has also bought hundreds of these books. If they lose all of them, it will be very depressing.
So after a few days of observation, I found that this book is really not easy to sell. Not even one out of 100 customers will read this book. In order to find out why the sales are so bad, I also asked the customers what they thought. I feel that the age difference of this book is too rigid, and the school can teach what I learn, and the price is expensive, there is no need to buy it back to waste money.
And Chen Yuan's English book is different. It is something that the school can't learn, and I heard that Wucheng fifth grade students and teachers have started to use this book to teach. Not only the English scores have improved significantly, but the scores of other subjects have also improved. obvious.
Only when I opened the English book did I know that the methods in this book are equally practical if they are replaced by math and language, such as replacing words with numbers and letters with sentences. They are all common things.
And when a child is very smart, he knows that by analogy, it can be said that all subjects can be improved with a single price, which is too cost-effective in terms of price and quality.
Many bookstores have decided to return their writing papers for fear of losing costs and turn to the potential stock of English books.
Inside the office of Wucheng Literature Publishing House.
"Editor Jiang, I'm really sorry, this book is really not easy to sell, and our shop is too small to bear the loss, and there is no way everyone has to eat, so I can only discuss with you and return the book."
Jiang Lili Her face was particularly ugly. She had completely lost the confidence she had before. This book made her never think that her grades would be so bad, and she would have to withdraw the book.
She hurriedly said to the staff of the bookstore: "Could it be that the shelf time is short, and the effect has not been seen, can you tolerate for a while, if it doesn't work, you can return it again."
The staff of the bookstore thought, passed The English books will arrive in a few days, and they will definitely occupy the most conspicuous and spacious part of the bookstore. Now this composition book is too much an obstacle and cannot be sold, and the profit is still low. How can it compare to English? Books are easy to sell, and people with a discerning eye know how to choose.
"Editor Jiang, we told the truth. The English books published by Huayu Culture were sold out within a few days of being published, but we bought hundreds of writing essays and only sold two of them, and they were still sold. , If it is sold normally, we can now recognize the facts and how the sales of this book are." After
these words, Jiang Lili's last confidence was really knocked out. She collapsed on the chair weakly, what strength It's all gone. The cost of this book was originally very high, and a total of 3,000 copies were printed. Can't stand such a loss.
Jiang Lili had no masters for a while, and she didn't know how to deal with it.
Soon the second batch of English books were also on the market, and sales were as good as ever. Customers almost always rushed to buy them. You can often see the counter of "How to Learn English" and many customers are asking.
It can be said that the third printing is a sure thing, and with the increase of time, the number of printings increased, and Liu Chuan also received an order from a bookstore in another place for the first time, not far from Wucheng. Seeing the situation getting better and better in this small town, it is estimated that more and more money will be made.
Liu Chuan now has all the book fees in his hand. He paid Chen Yuan the manuscript fee today. Speaking of his mental journey this month, I feel very ups and downs. Now it is really exciting to think about it.
At first I felt that I was going to lose money, but now I feel that I have to make a profit. The difference is really huge, but this time the hot sale made Liu Chuan especially thank Chen Yuan. It can be said that Chen Yuan used her own efforts to break the embarrassing situation of their publishing house. This month became the most profitable month of the year. Since this month, they have made profits and have made up for some of the past shortfalls. The entire publishing house has begun to rejuvenate. It is the feeling of falling from hell into heaven and coming back to life.
So he has to come to thank Chen Yuan, not only to send the author's fee, but also to be the benefactor of the publishing house.
At Chen Yuan's house, she was teaching Shen Mingyuan to fry melon seeds. Shen Mingyuan finally made a small improvement, knowing not to endure any more, and left the newspaper to concentrate on the melon seeds business.
The jasmine-flavored melon seeds and cream-flavored melon seeds have been sold well before, but after a period of time, they have reached a saturated state, and it is time to introduce new flavors.
What she taught Shen Mingyuan today is the caramel flavor, the plum flavor, and the spiced beef flavor melon seeds. These three flavors require a relatively high level of production technology.
Caramel needs the brown sugar and rock sugar to make the sugar color. The ratio of the sugar to the water and the time are all needed to achieve the final caramel flavor.
And although the taste of caramel is sweet, it should be fragrant in the mouth sooner or later, and the taste of the melon seeds itself is fused in it, so the entrance must be more fragrant than sweet. If it is sweeter than fragrant, the taste will be greasy. .
Shen Mingyuan took the small book and remembered clearly, how to confirm when and how to make caramel, because the price of sugar is very expensive, and it can't stand the waste. waste money.
The plums used in plum flavour are seasonal products. There are vendors selling on the street right now, so this kind of flavour can be introduced. Moreover, the plums at this time are all pure natural fruits, and they are not grown in large quantities, so The taste also has obvious sourness, but it does not affect the cooking of plums. The plums can be used to make melon seeds as long as they are marinated for a period of time. Just remember the time and how to season them.
The flavor of spiced beef is the most special. It is the only salty melon seeds among these kinds of melon seeds. The broth is made from beef bones, and more than ten seasonings such as cinnamon, grass fruit, star anise soy sauce are added. Anyway, if you are used to the sweetness, you will feel particularly delicious if you change this one.
When Liu Chuan came, Chen Yuan was busy frying, and hurriedly poured him a glass of water and served a plate of melon seeds as a treat.
When Liu Chuan came to Chen Yuan's house for the first time, he was a little restrained. Not much later he saw Dabao Erbao and a few make-up class children. They sat on the chairs and didn't know what to paint and write, so they paid attention unknowingly. The force was attracted.
I saw a neat white cardboard on the table, and a very large map was drawn on the cardboard. Look carefully, isn't this a map of a certain district in Wucheng?
And it seems to be near here.
Shops, bookstores, markets, schools, hospitals, bus stations, train stations, various units, factories, and residences are marked on the map. They are all carefully marked with specific information and are 100% similar to reality.
Each of Dabao took a wooden pawn in his hand and walked according to the number of steps marked on the grid. Erbao held the chess in his hand, and it was time for him to shake the dice.
An exquisite dice formed an arc in mid-air and landed on the table at 6 o'clock on the front, which is 6 steps forward.
The children stared enthusiastically where Er Bao would go.
"One step, two steps, three steps...Five steps, six steps, ah, the hospital."
Dabao said, "Erbao is the first time he went to the hospital to see a doctor. This rule shows that he is weak and has to go back three steps. "
"Three steps back on the map is a vegetable market. The story below says that Erbao met an old man buying vegetables in the market. The old man asked him a total of 47 cabbages on the stall. The first customer bought it. 4 pieces, the second customer bought 6 pieces, and the third customer returned 5 pieces. How many pieces of cabbage are there now?"
Erbao thought for a while and replied, "There are 42 pieces of cabbage."
Liu Chuan was next to him. Looked for a while and sighed. Such a small child is so smart, and on the surface, the children are playing games, but they are actually doing arithmetic problems, and the method of learning math games is the same as that in English books. It's amazing. Chen Yuan taught the children too well.
