Chapter 89 Selling Crazy
Ivory Island in mid-January, a magazine published by Ivory Evening News, was like a huge storm that was rare in a century. It became the hot spot of discussion in just half a month.
This entertainment magazine called "Men's Clothing" has been unique from the beginning. It not only has a gaze on the cover girl, but also captures the current popular fashions. It also includes a variety of entertainment elements, such as first-class novels and essays, such as provocative comics, such as the most popular food, wine, cars, and audio...
In short, this is a reading that any male reader wants to have. It has no boring preaching or long-term principles. It revolves around entertainment popularity from the first page to the last page, and it shows a righteous proposition - entertainment and enjoyment, which is the power that everyone has!
In fact, as someone said in the first issue: "If you are a man, between 18 and 80 years old, then "Men's Clothing" is a magazine tailor-made for you; if you want to have a humorous, profound and enthusiastic experience in the entertainment process, then "Men's Clothing" will definitely become your favorite..."
Therefore, this declaration was simply plagiarized, but who cares? It is precisely because of this entertainment proposition that the first issue of "Men's Clothing" was directly out of stock after its official release, and three thousand magazines were sold cleanly. Even the wrong defective products that were printed were bought at a high price.
Then, when the second issue of "Men's Clothing" was launched again, a long queue was already in front of the Ivory Evening News. Whether it was the nobles of Ivory Island, merchants with certain economic strength, or even ordinary civilians, they were all crazy about this magazine. Some even would rather save the next month's money for meals. They should buy a "Men's Clothing" first and go back and take a look.
Half a month later, have you read this magazine? It has become the highest standard for whether you are fashionable enough? At a noble party, in a businessman's manor, or even a tavern on the roadside, people can be seen talking about the theme of this issue's magazine, such as the figure of the cover girl in this issue, the debate rankings of dancers rankings, such as the luxury carriage introduced in detail. Which gentleman finally bought it...
Of course, not everyone is praising this magazine. There are also many gentlemen in Ivory Island who express strong condemnation. For example, Baron Burleen, who was a Puritan, immediately left the table with anger and slapped the table with anger: "It's outrageous. This completely entertaining vulgar publication is simply worthless, too much, too much, too much!"
What can I say? I almost fainted when I saw him angry. I originally planned to please the housekeeper with "Men's Clothing", but I could only wipe my head full of cold sweat. "That's right, it's just that, it's so declining. I'll burn it now!"
"What to burn?" Baron Buryen stretched out his hand tremblingly, and a sacred light shining behind him, "Go. Go quickly, buy me ten more books, from the first issue to the present issue, you will need all of them!"
I'm! The housekeeper who was still ashamed just now almost hit the table. What, did I hear it wrong? You just said that this publication is vulgar and worthless, but you turned around and wanted to buy it, and you also bought ten books at once. Are you planning to use it as a meal tonight?
"Of course I have to buy it. If I don't study it carefully, how can I find evidence of the crime?" Baron Burleen's face was full of justice, and his face did not flush. "As for why I wanted to buy ten copies, it was because I wanted to mobilize my friends to condemn it, severely condemn it, severely condemn it."
In awe, the housekeeper suddenly felt awe. He simply said nothing and rushed out with his purse. Baron Buryne did not forget to chase after him and reminded him: "Remember, if the next issue of the magazine comes out, you must buy it early. I will continue to condemn this magazine and insist on condemning it until it completely ceases publication."
OK, whether you like it or condemn it, no matter what, the "Men's Clothing" that just published was completely crazy. The first issue was sold out, the second issue was sold out, the third issue... Well, the third issue has not yet been launched, and someone has lined up at the door of the evening newspaper overnight, and even took the bedding over.
This is just the beginning. In late January, when Lin Taiping attended the banquet held by Speaker Federer, he suddenly stated in a vague way that "Men's Clothing" is not only released on Ivory Island, but will also develop to other islands in the future to meet the enthusiastic needs of the majority of readers.
Do you know what this means? The merchants who smelled the smell of gold coins surrounded the Ivory Evening News that night. Among them, there were not only the merchants on the island, but also the merchants who had just arrived at Ivory Island. The moment they arrived at the port, they immediately realized that the profit of this thing was much higher than that of red wine.
So, Lin Taiping, who was already busy, now had another happy trouble, that is, he had to receive merchants waving gold tickets from all over the world, and repeated the sentence mechanically: "Of course, of course, as long as our printing can keep up, I am happy to have the agency...Turu, can you put down your order first and come and help?"
"Lin, eating is also very important." Tulu blinked pitifully and looked at the restaurant owner who came to deliver the menu next to her, "What, I'll give me thirty roasted chicken legs, no, twenty, there's nothing I can do. Recently we're going to raise money to buy warships, so we have to save some money."
This is the truth. Because there is still a shortage of 230,000 gold coins, Christine and the dark creatures have begun to be thrifty, and even the people of the Taw-head have recently reduced their clothes and frugality. So Tulu could only endure the protests of four stomachs and sighed with a frown: "How much does twenty roasted chicken legs cost? What, you actually want six gold coins. You might as well grab them directly. Okay, then give me fifteen..."
"I will pay a thousand gold coins!" Before I could finish my words, one of the merchants surrounded Lin Taiping suddenly screamed in anger, "Dear Mr. Lin, please sell me the agency rights of Jianyu Island. In addition to each magazine, I am also willing to take out a thousand gold coins as agency fees!"
With a bang, Christine and Ye Ge were walking down the stairs, discussing whether to buy some skin care products that were about to expire and make do with it. After hearing this amazing number, they almost rolled down the stairs.
As for Tulu, who was already frowning and ordering, he immediately slapped the table fiercely, and his eyes were full of red light: "You moo! I don't want fifteen roasted chicken legs anymore, I want fifty, no, sixty!"
Well, it is very happy here. But Lin Taiping is really troublesome. A large group of businessmen surrounded him like chicken blood, using various methods just to get the exclusive agency rights of men's clothing. A guy even claimed that his ancestors also came from the far east. As the saying goes, fellow villagers meet fellow villagers...
"See you!" Lin Taiping couldn't help rolling his eyes desperately. As the merchants around him gathered more and more, he finally shouted unbearably, "Stop! Shut up all of them. If you say something more, I won't even sell him half of the paper!"
Very very powerful. In an instant, all the businessmen present immediately understood and covered their mouths. Dozens of eyes were filled with hope, staring at him pitifully, and even seeing the hot tears flowing.
"Auction, let's go for auction!" Lin Taiping waved his hand. Christine next to him immediately took a nautical chart, which marked the commercial islands in the Cape Sea in detail. "Start from the nearest Swordfish Island. The agent fee is at a minimum price of 1,000 gold coins. Those with the highest price will be awarded. If you do not quote for ten seconds, you will be deemed to be an voluntary abstention. Now start!"
"One thousand five hundred gold coins!" Before he could finish his words, the screaming businessman immediately raised his hand, "I paid one thousand five hundred gold coins, which one snatched me from me? I cursed him that I couldn't find a spoon when I drink soup!"
Without a spoon, I can use my hands directly! The businessman next to me ignored the threat and immediately someone scrambled to raise the price: "Two thousand gold coins, I will pay two thousand gold coins, what, if you pay two thousand five, then I will pay three thousand. Who can be higher than me?"
In just a few minutes, the agency fee for Feiyu Island rose to three thousand gold coins. Christine's hands and heart trembled together and almost threw away the navigation chart. Ye Ge raised his two red pointed ears, and a wisp of blue smoke was about to emerge from the tips of his ears. As for Tulu, who was still ordering food there...
"No, don't roast chicken legs, I want to roast beef, roast all beef!" He grabbed the restaurant owner fiercely. Tulu was so generous that he was outrageously angry that he was even venting his nose. "Tao ten roasted whole beefs, and you want the freshest...what? Do the Taurus eat beef? Do you care about me, I want it if I want it!"
In this way, amid the tears of the restaurant owner's eyes, the auction there is still in full swing. The first Swordfish Island sold three thousand gold coins, the second Blue Bay Island sold five thousand gold coins, and the third most famous Beaver Island is still in a fierce situation of fighting for each other, but the quotation has reached eight thousand gold coins...
Eight thousand gold coins, eight thousand gold coins shining. Kristen was shocked when he heard this astronomical number. Ye Ge and her friends were shocked. Even Lin Taiping couldn't help but shivered. A rare conscience found asked: "What, sir, are you sure you can earn back eight thousand gold coins?"
"I can, everything is possible!" The big businessman with round waist and thick waist didn't even think about it, and took out eight gold tickets and slapped the table. After thinking about it, he added two more, and shaking the table trembled. "If the magazine can meet my needs first, I can even take out two thousand gold coins to make up an integer, how auspicious!"
Tears were flowing! At this moment, Christine and Ye Ge were planning to cry with their heads in their arms. Woooooo, we no longer need to save on clothing and diet, no longer have to buy the cheapest skin care products, no longer have to go to small shops on the side of the road to buy discounted clothes, so let us be frugal and meet the dead!
So, in this strange silence, Tulu suddenly roared hysterically, jumped up with a passionate face, and held the restaurant owner high in the air-
"Moo! Don't have any roasted chicken, roast duck, roast lamb, roast beef, etc... Tell me quickly, do you have roasted whole dragons and sell them? The money is not a problem. Give me a whole dozen!"
