Chapter 51: The Tormented Wait

Shi Gui sold the volume for two months, and the sales channels were quite familiar, and he sent the book directly to the provincial capital through guò LTL freight, which cost only 2 cents per ton of 100 kilometers.

At this time, the trucks are not very accustomed to overloading, after all, the performance of the vehicle and the road conditions can only be said to be ordinary, however, there are no tolls, and there is cheap gasoline, which still makes the freight very cheap.

Shi Gui took a shuttle bus to the provincial capital, found a small hotel with convenient transportation to live in, and took out some of the 500 books he brought from the warehouse, and began to look for the newsstand near each school.

The best place to sell books is still Xinhua Bookstore, but state-run enterprises have always been difficult to talk to, and it will take at least another ten years for pirated copies to be sold at people's doorsteps.

The newsstand is the main sales location that Yang Rui chose after discussing with him.

There is basically a newspaper kiosk at the entrance of every school, and the location is usually good, and it is mainly for students' business. Shi Gui put ten or twenty books in each place, and then gave a small wallet to the boss, saying that he would increase the freedom of retreat, and gave up two or three cents of profits, and spread the new concept English to the whole city.

In addition, each newsstand was hung with advertisements that read "The World's Authoritative Book on English Language Teaching", "The Sister of 'Learn From Me'", "The Best English Learning Materials", and so on.

"Follow Me" is currently the most popular English teaching program in China, and was once called "the Bible of English learning", because "TV Weekly" published the dialogue text in it, and it actually increased by 500,000 users, which alone is enough for the media to envy for two days and two nights.

However, "Learn From Me", which started in 82, is a TV show, which means that viewers need to have a TV to watch it. Although the conditions of many families in the provincial capital are good, it is still a very luxurious behavior to buy a TV, which is roughly equivalent to a family in 2014 to buy a middle-class car, not impossible, but it is a somewhat painful decision.

If you are a frugal family, most people will choose to wait.

Although children in the same yard can go to other people's houses to watch TV, this is an inconvenient move after all, and it is normal to miss and watch less. Teaching English is not a TV series, and it is missing key parts, which may affect future learning.

The increase in subscribers to TV Weekly is also due to the fact that readers are able to access the newspaper and make up for their previous lessons.

New Concept English is naturally a better and cheaper option than newspapers.

In the many promotional advertisements prepared by Yang Rui for Shi Gui, "Learn from Me" is listed in the most conspicuous position, and the handwriting written by the thick black brush can be seen clearly from afar. Getting closer, you can also see stick figures on the advertising paper, which are also small things that Yang Rui searched for in his brain and are a little interesting.

Yang Rui believes that the new concept of English will be an instant hit.

This is a story proven by history.

In the era when there was no QQ and WeChat, the news spread quickly, especially the almost monopolistic English teaching program "Learn from Me", even in the county, there is nothing I don't know.

In the program, the explanations of a Chinese and a foreigner are popular all over the country, and the same origin is naturally the best publicity.

The new concept of English must also be an instant hit.

Yang Rui threw all his money into it, and he still owed 6,100 yuan.

The asking price of the Jiefang Printing Factory was 8,100 yuan, and Yang Rui earned a total of about 3,000 yuan in manuscript fees, and after spending some, almost all the remaining more than 2,000 yuan became a deposit.

If the 10,000 books could not be sold, the printing house would not have taken 5,000 books and forgiven his debts, and they would probably have calculated those books at the price of waste paper.

If the sales are not smooth, Yang Rui estimates that he will have to copy books to pay off his debts in the second half of the year.

It's not an easy job.

In the afternoon of the same day, Yang Rui waited for the telegram at the post office.

According to the agreement, whatever the result, Shi Gui will send a telegram back before getting off work.

Wang Guohua's father is the director, and after saying that, he let the entertainment room on the second floor give it to the two of them, and the white and tender little beauty Wu Qian brought them two pots of water, and then sat on the other side of the table, and asked curiously: "Your friend really printed 10,000 books?"

"Really. Yang Rui replied. The Liberation Printing House printed 10,000 copies of the new concept English 1, which can be found by anyone who checks it.

Wu Qian pinched her fingers and calculated, and said, "Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to sell it?"

"If you sell it, you will make it, and if you can't sell it, you will lose it. "Yang Rui looks quite free and easy on the surface.

Wu Qian unconsciously straightened up her bulging chest and asked, "If you pay for it, how much will you lose?"

Yang Rui laughed: "Why don't you ask how much you can earn after you earn it?"

Wu Qian suddenly noticed his tone and asked strangely, "Could it be that it was printed by your Ruixue group?"

"Do you also know the Rui Academy?" Yang Rui was surprised.

Wang Guohua coughed embarrassedly and said, "I may have said that I missed my mouth." ”

Yang Rui waved his hand: "It's not a matter of missing anything, and the Rui learning group is not an unsightly thing." ”

Wu Qian covered her mouth and laughed twice, the peak in her chest trembled, and said, "You haven't answered me yet." ”

"Well, we voted in the Ruixue group, and everyone didn't want to find a printing house to print this new concept of English, I felt that I had worked hard to copy it, and it was a pity not to print it, so I gave it to my friends to print. ”

"Ah...... None of you Rui Xue Group want to print, but that friend of yours is still willing? He's stupid. Wu Qian commented very seriously.

Yang Rui sighed: "You should say that this is all earned by one person." ”

"Oh...... Oh, yes, my bad, my mom said I can't speak, I'm sorry. Wu Qian quickly apologized.

Yang Rui smiled and nodded, indicating that it didn't matter. However, he was still a little nervous, and he lost interest in teasing the little girl.

Several people sat dry for a while, full of curiosity Wu Qian, pretending to refill Yang Rui's water, and couldn't help asking: "Printing a set of books, more than 2,000 yuan, right?"

"Of course. ”

"Then you have to pay more than 2,000 yuan, right?"

Wang Guohua couldn't help but say, "Sister Wu, can't we say something good?"

"What a sister, it's a sister. "Wu Qian is not false to Wang Guohua.

Wang Guohua was happy: "It's my sister, Sister Wu." ”

"My sister didn't call you. Wu Qian glanced at him and stepped on half-height small leather shoes and went out.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to change a pot full of water for Yang Rui.

Yang Rui sat and drank tea, waiting for news, there were newspapers in the conference room, but the content inside was boring and tight, and it was really difficult to use as a pastime.

I waited and waited, and soon it was six o'clock in the afternoon.

Wu Qian knocked on the door carefully and said in a low voice, "Yang Rui, we're going to get off work." ”

Yang Rui immediately raised his head and asked, "Where is the telegram?"

"No telegram came. Actually, you don't have to come here, if there is a telegram, we will send a postman to the school. Wu Qian explained to him carefully.

"I'm just in a hurry. Yang Rui exhaled from his nose and shook his head: This Shi Gui specially reminded him to shoot the telegram in time, but if he didn't shoot it, he really deserved to be beaten up before he could wake up.

He was also worried that Shi Gui would be arrested by the police in the provincial capital, and that the sales of New Concept English were not good, or that the sales were too good to be sent to the inventory in time......

But in these years without a mobile phone, he couldn't contact Shi Gui at all. went to the provincial capital to get a transfer to Xixian County, and there were only a few shifts in the morning every day, even when he arrived in the provincial capital, he couldn't find anyone, so he could only passively wait for his report.

This kind of waiting is really too tiring.

"Let's go back. Yang Rui got up violently, but because he had been sitting for too long, he fell down all of a sudden.

Wu Qian hugged him without thinking about it, and her bulging chest immediately hit Yang Rui's face.

"Ahh

"Why are you ......" Wu Qian made a big red face, she didn't dare to look at Yang Rui, stomped her feet, and ran downstairs.

Wang Guohua was dumbfounded, grabbed Yang Rui, and sighed: "It's good to be handsome." ”

Yang Rui shook his head and smiled, he couldn't help but reminisce about the touch of the right talent, and his uneasy mood gradually calmed down after such a change.

It was almost 8 p.m. back to school. Yang Rui stuffed some food casually and went to teach the Rui group a lesson. Although there is still a long time before the college entrance examination, if you don't carry out systematic training, no matter how good the tutor is, it will be in vain.

Today, there are still more than 70 people in the Ruixue group, and except for Huang Ren, Wang Guohua and Cao Baoming, no one knows that Yang Rui is preparing for a big purge.

On the contrary, Li Tieqiang, Wang Wanbin and others, who voted against it that day, talked and laughed after studying, without investment, the conditions of the Ruixue group are actually quite good, each student can get a lot of wages in addition to queuing up to participate in mimeographing, Yang Rui also changed the way to directly subsidize the profits earned by the Ruixue group to individuals. Not to mention white rice and white noodles plus vegetables and bones and meat, not to mention, even stationery, manuscript paper and test questions, Yang Rui also counted them in the accounts of the Ruixue group as much as possible, and he even began to plan to buy a batch of clothes and distribute them as uniforms to reduce the family burden of the group members.

Being in such a funded study group makes it easy for the members of the group to live and study in a much better way.

Many of the students who voted against it were also greedy for this rare ease, and they were unwilling to take it as a bet and press it on the table, which is actually the mentality of a normal person, but from Yang Rui's point of view, such a person is obviously not what the Rui group wants.

His Sharp School may not be a secret party like Freemasonry or the Skull and Bones Society, but it should be a charismatic communication organization. Some men and women who are full of charm because of self-confidence, because of strength, and because of ability, become intimate because of transactions, become tacit understanding because of common interests, and become kind because of inherent origins.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to be easy, but it's always going to be easy, so that the guy who is timid shouldn't be the choice of the Ruixue group.

Yang Rui is in Xibao Middle School, and there is no channel to attract more group members, but because of this, he sees internal unity as very important.

When he arrived at the university, these members of the Ruixue group who supported him were the cornerstone of stability.

However, all ideas can only be implemented if they are realistically successful.

Yang Rui wants to purge the Ruixue group, and if he wants the students of the Ruixue group to understand the weakness of democracy, they must first prove their success and the failure of democratic choice.

The "New Concept English" that is being sold in the provincial capital, these lead-printed textbooks that do not know whether they sell well or are not sold well, are the basis of all qiē.
