While Du Qi was drinking tea, Cai Youde came in a hurry. With an excited look on Cai Youde's face, he shouted: "My lord, the matter is over. Now Cai Bida has left Chang'an with his family. As for where they are going, that is their business. In short, they have paid their dues. There is a price."
Qianxue was sitting on the sidelines, she didn't have the slightest affection for Cai Bida, she said in a deep voice, "It's because of your kindness that you gave Cai Bida a way out. Such a person who betrayed his faith and betrayed his family, in fact, should have messed around a long time ago. kill."
Du Qi shook his head and chuckled.
It doesn't have to be.
For Du Qi, Cai Bida betrayed him, and he was somewhat disgusted. However, because of commercial matters, it is not enough to be reconciled to killing Cai Bida, he is not yet so hostile.
Let Cai Bida pay the price and exchange everything, that's enough.
Du Qi said seriously: "Treasurer Cai, the first tea shop collapsed. Next, our tea shop may have a sales increase. I don't care how much the sales are. The quality of the tea must be guaranteed."
Cai Youde assured: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely check it strictly. The tea from our No. 1 tea shop in the world must taste excellent, and there will never be any mistakes."
"That's good!"
A smile appeared on Du Qi's face.
When Du Qi, Cai Youde, and Qian Xue were talking about the expansion of the tea shop, Liu Jian entered and reported: "Young master, please come to see me again."
"please!"
Du Qi gave an order.
Liu Jian went to inform, while Du Qi looked at Cai Youde and said, "Take care of the tea shop, don't make any mistakes."
"clear!"
Cai Youde responded, turned around and left.
Today, the No. 1 tea in the world is working together. After all, the tea shop has undergone reforms, the wages of the employees in the tea shop have increased, and many backbones will still receive dividends at the end of the year, which is the most exciting.
Not long after, the money will come in again.
Du Qi asked: "The treasurer Qian is here, but what's the matter?"
Qian Zailai said: "My lord, I have two novelists here, and each submitted a manuscript. They hope to publish and sell it in our Xinhua Wenxuan. After reading it, I think it's okay, so I invite you to have a look."
While talking, he took out two manuscripts and handed them to Du Qi's desk.
Du Qi picked up a copy.
The name of this book is called "The Romance of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty", which is a bit like "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". It tells the story of the struggle for hegemony in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Compared with the rigorous and clear lines of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this "Romance of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty" is more scattered in terms of structure and content, but the writing style is also quite good. Many fictional stories have been added.
Du Qi nodded slightly after reading it.
Although this book is not particularly good, at least it is passable, and the characterization is not bad.
Du Qi picked up the second book again, which is a love novel called "The Story of Li Hate". , endless hatred.
In Du Qi's eyes, he actually doesn't like this kind of novels.
However, the structure of this book is quite clear, there are no scattered stories, the rhythm of the whole story is very tight, it seems very enjoyable.
Du Qi glanced at it roughly, then nodded and said: "These two books are good and can be printed. But now that they are printed like this, how do you plan to give the other party money?"
Qian Zaitai said: "The most mainstream way at the moment is to directly pay the price of a book. However, I think this is not the most suitable way. In order to motivate these two people, they are willing to go all out in writing, so as not to make up random things. "
"So, I plan to give them a basic price, calculated according to the price of 1,000 words. Then, if their book sells well, and how many copies are sold, then a commission will be made."
"The sales are not good, so I won't write halfway."
Qian Zailai said sternly: "If the sales are good, they can make money, and we can make money too. The most important thing is that through this method, the cost is also kept down. Young master, what do you think?"
Du Qi chuckled when he heard it.
At this time when the money comes again, he has become enlightened and has a business mind, or he is good at running a bookstore.
This is the way to guarantee the minimum plus commission.
This is the most basic operation.
At the same time, it is also the most beneficial to bookstores. because once?After the sales of the book increase, the bookstore and the author can achieve a win-win situation, and it will not matter who takes too much advantage.
Du Qi nodded and said: "No problem, you can arrange this matter. But since you want to set the method of commission, it is impossible to publish it in Datang Daily, and it must be printed separately."
"yes!"
Qian Zailai nodded and replied, "Their books will not be published in Datang Daily."
Du Qi rolled his eyes, thought for a while, and said: "Although their books cannot be published in the Datang Daily, it is also possible to advertise on it. You leave a small square on the Datang Daily, which is dedicated to It mentioned the news that "The Romance of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty" and "The Story of Lihen" will be sold, so as to attract readers to buy them."
"My son is wise!"
When Qian Zailai heard it, a look of joy appeared on his face.
Suddenly, Qian Zailai said: "My lord, you mentioned the advertisement. There is really another matter at the moment. I need to ask you to make the decision. I can't make up my mind for a while."
Du Qidao: "Speak!"
Qian Zailai continued: "The sales of our Datang Daily are getting better and better, and countless people come to order every day. Many merchants also come from far away to buy."
"Fortunately, Xinhua Wenxuan has gradually spread out. There are branches in various places, and the operation is also good. But now, a problem has arisen. Many businessmen hope to publish information about their shops in the Datang Daily Some information so that many people know their respective shops."
"These people are willing to pay, but it's just me for a while, so I can't decide to pay attention."
Qian Zailai said: "I implore you to judge, what should we do about this matter?"
Du Qi laughed softly, and said: "It is possible and a good thing that someone is willing to pay to print notices and release information on the Datang Daily. But the price should not be too low. You are Xinhua Wen The chief shopkeeper of Xuan Bookstore is in charge of managing Xinhua Wenxuan and the affairs of Datang Daily, you should also make decisions together."
"yes!"
Qian Zailai said: "After the young one goes back, he will gather people to investigate and then decide what price to offer."
"Can!"
Du Qi said solemnly: "Every Datang Daily has different prices in different locations. Different sizes are also different, you can figure it out."
"yes!"
The money will come back and talk again.
After Qian came back to deal with the matter, he said no more and left.
Du Qi stayed in the tea shop, listening to Qianxue's sonata, enjoying this comfortable life. Now, he just likes such a comfortable life, leisurely and leisurely, which is very good. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
