May 18th, the auspicious day of the zodiac, everything is suitable.

Shortly after the Chen Dynasty, the area around Fucheng North Street became lively, with pedestrians coming and going, and shops and vendors on both sides kept shouting to attract customers.

The sudden crackling sound of firecrackers attracted the attention of many people. Some people who were active in this area even looked curious after striking their eyes: "Isn't the Zongheng Bookstore that always closes the doors there? Is it going to open?"

With the last few firecrackers, several shop doors have been closed tightly for the past two months and opened almost at the same time. Dozens of people came out from it in a row, including those wearing silk shirts and long robes, and those dressed in short dresses. But what is more eye-catching is a group of actors wearing costumes and painted faces.

Seeing that many people subconsciously gathered towards their own store, Wan Lang in the middle of the crowd waved the fan, smiled and took two steps forward, bowing to everyone around: "My fellow villagers, you are in Wan Lang. Today is the good day for the opening of Zongheng Bookstore under my name. This store has various classic articles and many wonderful novels, many of which are the best, which you have never read before, and there are other wonderful story albums waiting for you to come in and view. I hope that all fellow villagers will take care of their business..."

After saying this set of scenes, he waved his hand and signaled that the troupe's people could go on stage.

At that moment, several actors from Chunhe Ban walked onto the wooden platform that had been set up early in sequence, somersaulted and danced with swords and guns. On the spot, a newly compiled group of operas came, making the one that was wonderful. Cooperating with the sound of drums and gongs on both sides, it immediately attracted more passers-by to watch, and the cheers spread rapidly.

After a while, almost half of the street was pedestrians were attracted by the movements here. Some were watching the show, and some were curiously running to the store door to look at the end. Of course, there was also the eyeliner arranged by the third bedroom of Wanjia. Looking at the strange furnishings in the store, this person looked confused and confused. After a while, he recorded some details, and then hurried back and rushed to report the news.

Zongheng Bookstore is not far from Wanjia Bookstore. After only a meal, the person has arrived in front of Wanmang and reported what he saw. However, the brothers frowned continuously: "When the bookstore opened, was this Xiaojiu still so unrestrained?"

"You mean the store environment is completely different from our bookstore?"

"Yes, after entering the store, there are rows of bookshelves. The customers can pick up books in it. There are tables and chairs on both sides... By the way, the young man saw that there was a counter on the edge, just like the counter in the hotel, with many jars of wine pots and cups and plates on it."

"What a nonsense, such a messy bookstore wants to attract customers?" Wan Rong suddenly laughed, "Brother Twelve, it seems that we are worrying for so long that this kind of store will have to close after opening a few days."

Wan Mang frowned. He couldn't understand what the other party's series of arrangements was of use, but he didn't dare to relax in his heart. He could only say solemnly: "Don't underestimate them, and don't forget that there was also the inclusion of Gu and Li in this matter. You and Thirteen were defeated by them because of underestimating the enemy."

When talking about the previous failure, Wan Rong couldn't laugh immediately: "What does Yi Shi Er mean?"

"You, go to the store as a customer and make sure to find out their details. Also, the things we have decided before cannot be changed. Later, someone will hang out the 20% discount on the whole book, and then let someone spread the news along the street. I want them to make it impossible for them to do a few transactions on the opening day, and suppress their arrogance."

"Yes!" Wan Rong and the gang agreed quickly, then quickly walked out and went out to do their own business. Wan Mang fell into deep thought again. With these gimmicks alone, can Wan Lang really make the bookstore gain a foothold in the city?

When the guy came to the Zongheng Bookstore again, he found that there were more and more people gathering here. The three floors inside and outside surrounded the stage to watch the show. Many people were also attracted by the strange decorations in the bookstore and ran in to see what was going on. Seeing this, he pretended to be an ordinary customer and walked into the store.

"Sir, what book do you want to read?" As soon as you entered the door, a young and energetic guy came over with a smile: "Do you want to choose classics, history, and literature, or do you want to read novels, or are you interested in the picture albums and pictures unique to our bookstore?"

"I...I'll just take a look..."

"Oh, then the three rows of bookshelf behind me are collections of classics, history, and related annotations. The five rows on the left are novels, and the ones on the right are scripts and scripts. If you want to see the content, you can take the book and go to the table over there to read it. Our store also has wine, snacks, which is absolutely fair..."

After listening to this introduction, he, who came to inquire about the news, became more interested in the services and books in the bookstore. After a few words, he quickly responded to the row of bookshelf on his left.

At this moment, four or five people were hesitatingly looking at the neatly arranged books, but they didn't dare to pull them out at will.

Nowadays, the shops that everyone is used to, whether they want, whether they want, they will tell the shop or the boss directly, and then they will provide them with them, and then decide whether they want them according to the situation. I have never encountered a bookstore where you can directly pick up books. Several people are even worried that as soon as they take a book, the shopkeepers and other shops jump out and force them to buy the book.

However, this spy had no concerns about this. If Zongheng Bookstore was so forced to buy and sell, it would hit him, and he would make a fuss. He glanced around in front of the bookshelf and picked up the set of "The Romance of the Gods" that he had heard people mentioned before, took out the first volume, stood there and read it casually.

As a result, the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper did not interfere at all, and only invited other new customers to see the final visitor. Seeing this, the spy clicked and put the book back. Then he turned around casually and went to the rows of bookshelves on the right. When he walked closer, he heard that several guests who had already brought the book in his hands were applauding:

"This album is so exquisite, the beauty is so similar."

"You see, my book is still beautiful, and there are gods fighting in the painting."

"Hey, let's see... it's really! Wow, this Linglong Pagoda actually sucked people in... What kind of picture album is this?" "I just picked up a book called "The Romance of the Gods". It's really exciting."

The quiet conversations of several people immediately attracted the attention of more guests. They came forward one by one, and I took out the picture album on the shelf and saw what it was. After seeing this, all of these people were trapped in.

People in Fucheng have never seen such a book that converts words into pictures. They couldn't stop at first glance and were amazed. It was the spy who, driven by curiosity, opened a picture album adapted from the novel of the talented man and beautiful woman, and his eyes were still a little unplugged.

Those things that could only be imagined by reading texts are now completely turned into pictures and invaded the eyes. This impact is even more exciting than watching 2D movies to watch 3D blockbusters. Looking at the lifelike beauty scholar, the sense of immersion... almost made him drool.

It was not until a few conversations came from behind that he came back to his senses. When he turned around, a customer came to the counter in front of the door with a few albums in his hand: "How do you sell these albums?"

"Sir, our album is the only one in the world, so the price is not low. One book costs eight cents of silver..."

"Is it so expensive?" The guest frowned. The size of the album was like a slap, not very thick. It was only about fifty pages, and the content was naturally incomparable to the volume of novels. It was really worth it if you calculated it like this.

"Sir, you don't know anything. Our albums are all invited by good painters to carefully draw them according to the contents of the book. They are the most close to the original and the most exciting. And you have read them. The album is printed with exquisite quality, and the cost is expensive. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for... In addition, this is a good day for our Zongheng Bookstore to open. Within three days from today, all the books in our store will be 20% off, so after counting this, this album is actually not too expensive."

After hearing his careful introduction, he was already hesitant and tended to buy it. After a moment, he finally gritted his teeth: "It's true, I really like this picture album, so I can buy these books." As he said that, he pushed the book forward.

"Thank you, sir, but these books are all sampled, and there is a brand new one for you on our cabinet." As he spoke, the guy quickly took out a box from the counter in front of him, and there were the same picture album inside. He found the books and put them in front of him.

This small action not only made the customer feel considerate, but the others behind him also nodded. Some people before thought it was inappropriate to put the book here and let everyone read it casually. Once the book is old and broken, who would still be willing to buy it? Now I know that the store owner has prepared a lot and thought it much more carefully than himself.

So the customer happily paid the bill, and the guy carefully calculated it before saying, "There are five picture albums in total. You should have four taels of silver, but today we will pay 20% off for the guests, which is only 3 taels of silver. By the way, our bookstore has a bigger discount today. As long as we buy books for 5 taels of silver at one time, we can become a silver member of our Zongheng Bookstore. In this way, we can get another 20% off, that is, a discount."
