Yang Rui had breakfast at school and deliberately calmed down before riding a bicycle down the mountain.

The mountain breeze is cool, but the air is fresh and moist, and between the exhalation and the inhalation, it is as if the lungs have been immersed in the cold water, which is unusually comfortable.

The slope down the mountain is very long, but it is very wide, and it is said that President Zhao tried his best to persuade everyone to go from village to village in the past, and then applied to the commune to build a super-sized project. In the era when there were no construction vehicles, the scale of the turn was equivalent to six lanes, which could not be done overnight.

Whenever they arrived, many students would excitedly let go of their handlebars and rush all the way down at a speed like a wind.

This is about the early flying car.

Yang Rui's head was empty, and he unconsciously let go of the handlebars, ran for a while, and subconsciously posed again.

He is about 30 years old mentally and subconsciously refuses to do such dangerous activities.

A normal thirty-year-old man has stiff muscles and bones, and a fall may not be humane, but he does have to be careful, and the kind that is not careful enough will most likely be eliminated in the process of evolution.

Wang Guohua followed, and he rode a weighted permanent, which was only faster than Yang Rui's.

Many students in the furnace class have bought bicycles, but the price is different, as a famous brand of permanent phoenix to more than 40 yuan, red flag and the like of more than 30 yuan, the province of pandas, Lehua and so on not even 30 yuan, than a pair of genuine big pull back is not expensive.

Wang Guohua bought permanent parts, which are cheaper than installed permanent cars, and it is a way to increase production thought of by factories with insufficient production capacity, which is a bit stupid from the perspective of the 21st century, but under various administrative pressures, there is no way to do it.

Riding all the way to the door of the post office, Yang Rui's footsteps hesitated slightly, and then pushed the door in.

"Is there a telegram?" Yang Rui was full of speed, and came to the counter at a very slow pace.

It was Wu Qian who was on duty. When she saw Yang Rui, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said, "I'm in such a hurry, the morning telegram is about to be delivered, I'll take a look." ”

"I'm not in a hurry. Yang Rui muttered.

Wu Qian pursed her lips and lowered her head to find the telegram.

Wang Guohua parked the car and came in, just when he heard Yang Rui's words, he said with a smile: "Early in the morning, I arrived at the post office in person, no matter how I look at it, I look like a person in a hurry." ”

"Don't talk nonsense. Yang Rui glared at him, his fingers tapping on the wooden countertop, making a whining sound, like an early woodpecker with tooth decay.

A few minutes later, or in Yang Rui's feelings, it was a long, long time later, Wu Qian turned around with a telegram and said softly: "There really is." ”

"What do you say? Yang Rui leaned over the counter and half-snatched the telegram.

The message was concise: 87 copies were sold.

"87 copies? Wang Guohua's head leaned over and exclaimed.

Yang Rui sighed: "87 books, this is the rhythm of death." ”

"What rhythm?"

"It takes 100 days to sell 87 copies in one day, 870 copies in 10 days, and 8,700 copies to be sold in 100 days. Yang Rui shook his head in disappointment.

"I'm sure I'll sell more in two days. After listening to Yang Rui's accounting, Wang Guohua's voice became smaller, and said, "Isn't our test paper also slowly increasing sales?"

"The test papers are constantly changing, there are always new test papers, the previous customers are retained, and new customers will be added. Books are different, people who bought them before won't buy them again, and the longer they delay, the fewer new customers there will be. Yang Rui rubbed his hair, and he really couldn't understand why the dignified "New Concept English" sold so poorly.

In fact, if you use ordinary pirated books as a theory, in a city, the result of selling 87 copies a day cannot be said to be bad. According to the profit of more than 5 cents per book, you can earn at least 45 yuan here, the provincial capital is sold out to go to the region, and the region is sold out to go to other provinces, earning someone else's salary for a month every day, which is already an additional addition brought by "New Concept English", and it is not easy to sell such a result for another pirated book.

However, the profit of 5 cents is exchanged for printing 10,000 books at one time, and if only 5,000 copies are printed, the profit may be reduced to two cents, and if only 2,500 copies are printed, there may be no profit.

And at this rate, using 2,500 yuan as a cost, and then taking a month to recover it, still not a penny, it really can't be said to be a good business.

From this point of view, selling 87 copies a day is indeed too little.

As for the distribution of goods to neighboring provinces, Yang Rui is not optimistic. On the one hand, there are more salesmen, that is, more costs, and on the other hand, there is a higher risk, and the chance of being blackmailed by local snakes and the police is also increased. In the city, up to the city government and down to the neighborhood committee, all of them are qualified to let the self-employed pay money, and in order to buy safety, individual vendors congratulate the director of the neighborhood committee on his birthday, the mother of the director of the neighborhood committee, and the father of the director of the neighborhood committee. It should be said that ordinary people see that self-employed people make money, so they are envious, jealous and hateful, and the power holder also sees that self-employed people make money, so they wield knives to cut flesh and let blood and sell corpses.

In Hedong Province, the relationship between the Yang family can play a role to some extent, and it must be beyond the reach of the whip in neighboring provinces.

What's more, the potential of the province is by no means a mere 87 books per day.

This is Hadong Province, where a magazine can sell 300,000 copies, and more than 300,000 people need English materials.

In this era, there are more people who can't get into college, but there are definitely more people who take the university exam.

"Something must be wrong. Yang Rui knocked on the counter again.

"You can send a telegram to ask. Wang Guohua came up with an idea.

Yang Rui thought for a while, shook his head simply, and said: "The telegram is not clear, let's call, first take the telegram and let him wait, and then I will call again." ”

This time, it was another long day of waiting.

Finally got through the phone, and without waiting for Yang Rui to ask, Shi Gui first complained: "Many people have heard of the new concept of English, and there are many people who go to the book booth to see and ask, but they buy very few, some say that the first volume is too simple, and some are worried that the whole volume will be released in the future and cannot be sold alone, in short, it is not enough to sell the first volume alone." ”

This answer was definitely beyond Yang Rui's expectations, and he couldn't help but say: "Although the content of the first volume is simple, it is at least suitable for students below the second year of high school, and for graduating students with a bad foundation, it is okay to read the first volume first......

"No one wants to just read such a shallow book, even if the grades are not good, they want to see what the second book is like. Besides, half of the first volume is very simple, many students only copy the back half, or even only copy the back third, and it will sell more and more slowly in the future, if you can add up the second volume and bundle it, I estimate that it will sell more. ”

Yang Rui couldn't help but be silent.

I have to say that Shi Gui's judgment is very reasonable, after all, the pirated books produced by Yang Rui cannot be compared with large publishing houses, only the first volume, and there is no credit value, and it is normal for students not to choose to buy it.

If you add the second book, with the number of words in the second book, it will be too much time to copy. Selling both copies at the same time is probably going to increase sales.

But...... Where does Yang Rui have the money to print the second volume?

If you print less, the cost is too high, and if you don't wait for it to be sold out, you will be defeated by other big pirates or big publishing houses.

"Is there any other way than to add a second volume to sell together?"

"I can try it in another city, and then I can find a teacher at the school...... Actually, a teacher came to ask, and because there was only one volume, by the way, they wanted the whole volume, and asked me how many books there were, and I couldn't tell me. Shi Gui's voice on the other end of the phone was dull, obviously tired.

Yang Rui touched his chin, unable to decide.

"Hey, hey...... Is there no sound on the phone? With such an expensive phone bill, I can't get through all the time, what kind of broken phone ......" Shi Gui's voice became irritable.

Selling pirated books in a provincial city alone, thinking about the ending of the leopard, is indeed a very stressful job.

"I can hear it. Yang Rui tapped the earpiece and said, "If I print the second volume, how many sales do you think it will have?"

"It's no problem to double. ”

"Two sets of doubles, that's one two hundred and five a day?"

"Why is two hundred and five so ugly, alas, almost, I didn't expect it to be so hard to sell. ”

"If you print another 10,000 copies, it will be 20,000 copies, one 250 copies a day, and it will take 80 days, that is not much different from now, and it will still sell more and more slowly, right?" Yang Rui took the microphone and said in a stern voice: "20,000 copies cost 16,000, you can think about it clearly." ”

"This ......"

"Didn't you say that there were a lot of people who came to ask? 500 books a day, isn't it? If you can sell 500 copies, I'll find a way to print a second volume of 10,000 copies. Yang Rui said very loudly, as if he was full of confidence, but in fact, his palms were sweaty.

500 copies per day, the best result is to sell out in 40 days, although the time is still a bit long, but it is already within an acceptable range, at least, a month's payment is enough to cover the cost.

Unless you admit a huge debt now, this is the best option.

Yang Rui can't sell these pirated books in person, and he can't take risks like this with a good future, on the other hand, Yang Rui thinks that he is not better than Shi Gui.

Shi Gui has worked in a restaurant himself, and has more than a month of experience in selling test papers, so for now, it is the best choice.

Shi Gui was frightened by Yang Rui's words.

His home is in Xibao Town, and if he can run a monk, he can't run the temple, if he promises five hundred copies, then he must work hard to complete it.

However, if you don't agree, you won't be able to do this sales job.

Compared with opening a restaurant, Shi Gui cares more about his current job, whether it is pay or fun, it is much more.

Glancing at the crowd coming and going outside the window, thinking that there were so many people who asked yesterday that he didn't have time to shoot telegrams, Shi Gui finally gritted his teeth and said, "It's just five hundred." Still, do you still have the money to print?"

"It doesn't have to cost money, I'll find a way to convince Comrade Factory Director. Yang Rui had a stomach in his heart.

Wang Guohua listened secretly. Shi Gui was General Yang Rui, and his brain didn't have time to turn, but Wang Guohua remembered that the profit of a book was five cents, and if he could really sell 500 copies a day, it would be a profit of 250 yuan, which was three or four times the income of the Ruixue group.

And all this money belongs to Yang Rui personally.

In Wang Guohua's eyes, this is absolutely astronomical.
