"Oh? "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Boss Lu is not how much is in the bookstore? Mr. Luo said it so cautiously, could it be that there is something peculiar about his Romance of the Three Kingdoms? ”

Lin Xinyuan said to the middle-aged man beside him with a smile, and looked at Luo Tianrui again.

Lin Ershao's words were obviously a joke. But Luo Tianrui nodded solemnly, "Yes." Less proprietors. I cursory read a few chapters, and the story is still the original story, but after cutting and revising, the arrangement is very wonderful. I suggested that the young proprietor buy this book and use it as the original story in the teahouse. ”

Lin Xinyuan smiled in surprise, he was still very serious and experienced when talking about business, and asked, "Is this really necessary?" ”

Luo Tianrui nodded and said affirmatively: "If I start talking about this version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the scene will be at least three points hot." ”

Lin Xinyuan clapped his hands and said, "Okay." Then buy it. Mr. Luo, you go to Shopkeeper Zhao and talk to you together. ”

Luo Tianrui's heart was relieved, and he finally didn't miss this wonderful Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I am also a little grateful for the trust of the young owner in him.

Boss Lu stretched out his hand to stop Luo Tianrui, who was leaving, and said with a smile: "Eh, Brother Lin, such an elegant matter, why don't you invite that little friend over and talk about it in person?" Mr. Luo said this book so well, I want to see it. ”

"Okay. Boss Lu is really a book lover. Lin Xinyuan laughed and said, "Mr. Luo, then please go and run again and invite that little friend over." ”

Scholars, no talents, collectively referred to as "little friends". Even if you are sixty years old, you are still a little friend. If you win the show, you are an "old friend". is less than ten years old, as long as there is a talent and fame, it is also called an "old friend".

"The young owner is polite, I'll go and invite." Luo Tianrui left with a smile.

Just when Luo Tianrui left the west-side box, there were a few faint sentences of dialogue between Lin Ershao and Boss Lu, which was to avoid Luo Tianrui.

"This time, the emperor was furious, and the prince Teng was appointed to the nine provinces of the capital and ordered to check the border. Qiu Shilang was a little unstable. ”

"Isn't it a grudge between Bachelor Li and Bachelor Zhang? How can it involve the corruption of the household department? ”

"Ha, who knows what is going on above. I said it casually, and Aunt Lin listened to it. Don't say it, don't say it. Next, the strange text is appreciated, and the doubts are analyzed. ”

At the end, I heard a few wry smiles from Lin Gongzi.

…

…

Zhao Guoji stayed outside the door. Jia Huan followed the storyteller Luo Tianrui into the Xijiangyue Tea House's west-style box, and at the square table of pear blossom wood, two men chatted about authentic tea.

Jia Huan saw the faces of the two clearly, was slightly stunned, and then returned to normal. There were two people at the table, one was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, rich and noble, dressed in Confucian clothes. The other was a fair man in his forties, with an indifferent bookish aura on his body.

Jia Huan handed the book to Luo Tianrui. Luo Tianrui presented it to Lin Xinyuan.

Lin Xinyuan didn't look through it, but handed the book to Boss Lu, he believed in Luo Tianrui's vision. looked at the little boy in front of him and said with a smile: "Friend Jia is invited, have you ever gone to school?" ”

The meaning of "going to school" refers to whether or not to be admitted to the examination. It also refers to whether or not to start reading.

Jia Huan felt a little helpless and said, "I'm reading "University Chapters". Don't dare to be called a 'friend' of the young owner, please make a price for this book. ”

This is the way of greeting between strangers and readers. To describe the fame first, in order, it is Tongsheng, Xiucai, Juren, and Jinshi. If the merit is the same, the year in which it is recounted will be recounted. It was the seniors who came first. In the same year, the ranking of the field was recounted. In short, you will definitely be able to arrange the seats.

"Don't worry, I'll ask my friend to take a look before I speak." Lin Xinyuan laughed. In this year's business, you have to talk about the relationship before you can negotiate the price, this child is good, directly "talking about business", it seems that he is not deeply involved in the world.

Jia Huan nodded.

After a while, Boss Lu closed the notebook, twisted his beard and smiled: "Good book." ”

Lin Xinyuan smiled shrewdly and said, "Jia Xiaoyou, I went to a banquet in the Drunken Immortal Building a few days ago. A landscape painting by the crown of the Yuan Dynasty sold for 8 taels of silver. I paid 10 taels of silver for this Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Please don't resell it to others. ”

Wang Mian was a famous painter and poet in the Yuan Dynasty. He is famous for painting plums.

Jia Huan didn't know much about calligraphy and painting, but 8 taels of silver was converted into 8,000 yuan. In modern society, not to mention the famous artists of the former dynasties such as Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian during the Republic of China, even if they are modern painters, as long as they are a little famous, they are not at this price, right? CCTV host Zhu Jun's paintings have sold for more than 1 million. There's definitely something wrong with that.

Jia Huan frowned slightly, and said simply: "Since this is the case, then I won't sell it." ”

Lin Xinyuan smiled slightly and said, "It's okay." Doing business is about your love and willingness. "I took the book from Boss Lu and returned it to Jia Huan. sat down and took a sip of tea, waited for Jia Huan to take the book in his arms, and saw that he really didn't want to sell it, and said with a smile: "Jia Xiaoyou, I'll add another 2 taels of silver." Couldn't be more. ”

Jia Huan was not interested in bargaining with this fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy. This young man should be a family student, but he obviously has not yet completed his business skills, shook his head, and said lightly: "Forget it." "Turn around and go.

To do business, whether the customer is the elderly or children, we must be honest-based, so as to reach the world and achieve brand brilliance.

The young owner obviously bullied him for being a child and deliberately lowered the price.

In fact, the price of 12 taels of silver is already within Jia Huan's heart. But the price cut by the young owner made him realize that the book might sell for a higher price.

Lin Xinyuan was a little stunned, this is too simple. After thinking about it quickly, I decided to give up the business.

After all, the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms is widely circulated. There was no need for him to spend a "huge sum" of money to buy a script that was already circulating.

In today's peaceful years, twenty taels of silver for an ordinary person is enough to live for a year.

Seeing that the business was not successful, Luo Tianrui sighed in his heart, he desperately hoped that the young owner would buy this book. This version of the Three Kingdoms will definitely spread widely.

"Wait." Just as Jia Huan opened the wooden door of the box, Boss Lu suddenly shouted to Jia Huan, "Jia Xiaoyou, slow down." Let's talk about it. As he spoke, he looked at Lin Xinyuan, "Brother Lin, don't you mind if I cut off my beard?" ”

Lin Xinyuan was already planning to give up this business, and said with a smile: "How come? Boss Lu is interested, although the offer is to negotiate with Jia Xiaoyou. I also want to see the valuation in Jia Xiaoyou's heart. ”

"Oh, what price is Boss Lu going to offer?" Jia Huan turned around and came back, he still hoped to sell the book in his hand, so as not to go to the bookstore to sell it again.

Boss Lu said with a smile: "Jia Xiaoyou's temperament is really simple. Okay, I'll do it too. I'll pay you 30 taels of silver for your book. ”

"Heh..."Lin Xinyuan and Luo Tianrui were both startled, this price is too high, right?

Jia Huan did not hesitate, like a cheetah that saw the right time to hunt, and said neatly: "Deal!" As he spoke, he took a few steps forward and put the book in front of Boss Lu.

Perhaps, the words in hand could have been sold for a higher price. But thirty taels of silver had already exceeded his expectations and could be traded. His business principle is "ten birds in the forest, it is better to have one bird in the hand".

Boss Lu smiled and took out thirty taels of silver tickets and put them on the table of Lihuamu, "This is the silver ticket of the Rishengchang ticket number." Thirty taels. Redeem the ticket at sight. ”

"Hmm." Jia Huan smiled slightly, and put away the silver ticket in a good mood. This is the end of the deal. Before entering this box, he didn't expect that it would be Boss Lu who would buy the bookseller.

After a month of hard work, it finally paid off. The beginning of the great cause of copying was good, and he earned thirty taels. Continue!

…

…

Seeing that the business was finished, Lin Xinyuan said curiously: "Boss Lu, did you plan to engrave and sell this when you bought it?" ”

Boss Lu said: "Of course. Otherwise, I bought it for collection? Ha ha! Brother Lin, I'll lend it to Mr. Luo for a few days, and let him give a lecture in your Xijiangyue Teahouse. Guaranteed popularity. It's kind of paving the way for my new book. ”

Lin Xinyuan gave a thumbs up, "Boss Lu has a good brain." "This is really a businessman. It is worthy of being a figure in the Jin merchants.

Luo Tianrui arched his hand and said happily: "Thank you Boss Lu for that." ”

Boss Lu waved his hand, looked at Jia Huan who was waiting to say goodbye with a smile, and said, "Jia Xiaoyou, I didn't expect us to meet here again." You haven't been to my bookstore in a few days. Your Romance of the Three Kingdoms was still bought in my store. ”

Jia Huan smiled, "I have something to do in the past two days, so I didn't go." Be sure to visit another day. "Boss Lu is the owner of the Renhe Bookstore in Sishifang, where Jiafu is located. He chatted with this Boss Lu a few times.

As soon as he entered, he recognized it. It's just that he has been in the mall for a long time, and he can't recognize people on certain occasions.

Boss Lu laughed and said freely: "The business is done, you might as well sit down and talk a few words." Brother Lin, some of this Jia Xiaoyou's views are insightful and very inspiring. ”

Lin Xinyuan and Luo Tianrui on the side were already stunned. Feelings, these two know each other!

If it weren't for Boss Lu doing business first and then recognizing people, Lin Xinyuan would almost suspect that today's scene was a game, and said with a smile: "Boss Lu, you..., okay, Friend Jia is an acquaintance, and he is sitting and watching tea."

"Young owner, I'll go out first." Luo Tianrui confessed and withdrew with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He's also going to tell stories.

Two maids with face signs brought new tea and pastries. Jia Huan, Lin Xinyuan, and Boss Lu re-narrated and exchanged names.

Jingshi has a population of millions. The name Jia Huan is unremarkable. However, the surname "Jia" is rare after all. Lin Xinyuan asked if it had anything to do with the Zhongrong Mansion in the capital. Jia Huan pushed over.

Lin Xinyuan, the word Ziming, is a native of Wanping County, Shuntianfu, Beijing, his family has been rich in business for generations, and now he is studying in Wendao Academy in the suburbs of the west of the city. Prepare for next year's exam.

Boss Lu's real name is Lu Chengji, and he runs a bookstore in Four Seasons.

When they met, it was impossible for the three of them to introduce themselves in depth, and they talked in general terms and were vague. The topic quickly turned to this Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Boss Lu had a "I have a discerning eye" expression, and said leisurely: "I just saw that Jia Xiaoyou brought the script, so I decided to buy it." Jia Xiaoyou, don't shirk the name of others, I conclude that this condensed version of the Three Kingdoms is from your handwriting. ”

Jia Huan drank the best Wuyi rock tea and said with a wry smile: "Boss Lu really thinks highly of me, you just say yes." ”

He just chatted with Boss Lu in the bookstore about a few words of history and commented on the characters of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. But he didn't expect Boss Lu to be impressed by him. In fact, anyone who sees a seven- or eight-year-old child talking about history will be as impressed.

And the reason why Jia Huan and Boss Lu talked about the history of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was just because he had to read books in the bookstore, and by the way, he learned which historical celebrities had appeared and which historical celebrities had not.

Lin Xinyuan has been secretly wondering what Boss Lu appreciates about Jia Huan? Boss Lu and Jia Huan did a business, which was actually a denial of his vision, which was quite embarrassing. Of course, businessmen are used to these things. He didn't care. Just thinking.

Now that I see Boss Lu saying that it was Jia Huan who adapted the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I understand a little bit, this little boy is afraid that he has real talent and learning, and he can't look down on him because of his age.

Thinking about it, Lin Xinyuan pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Jia, I deliberately lowered the price of your book just now, and I am in business, please don't be surprised!" ”
