Chapter 55 Su Qian, a Good Bribe

After Su Qian left, Xu Qing simply cleaned up the dishes.

The female catcher came to his house more and more often to eat, but this was understandable. After all, no one would be willing to use chopsticks for the tasteless meals cooked by Magistrate Su.

Moreover, Xu Qing is no longer the poor Xu Qing who just came to this world. Now the money in Xu Qing's hands is more than enough to provide food for the two of them.

Moreover, Su Qian taught herself martial arts so hard every day, and the reward was just enough food.

If you think about it, the monthly tuition fee for the martial arts gym in the west of Yongzhou City is ten taels of silver. If you calculate it, Xu Qing can be said to have made a lot of money!

Moreover, that martial arts gym is not a very good martial arts gym, and the fees for better martial arts gyms will inevitably be more expensive.

After all, since ancient times, the poor in literature and the rich in martial arts, practicing martial arts is more expensive than studying literature.

With only a few spareribs and a bowl of noodles, Xu Qing received one-on-one guidance from a famous master with strong martial arts skills. He had to huddle under the quilt and secretly enjoy himself.

next day

Xu Qing went to take a look at the shop when he was free today. When the shop was about to open, Xu Qing took a look. The rest of the time, he taught Xiao Ruxue and Xiao Ye how to take care of it.

He doesn't have much time to take care of the shop every day.

Because the place where he lives is not close to the shop, it is four streets away!

Moreover, Xu Qing also believed that with Xiao Ruxue's talent, running the shop well would not be a problem.

After all, there weren’t too many customers in the early days, so you just had to watch the books and the money on the cabinets so that they wouldn’t be stolen by others.

But the facts proved that Xu Qing thought too much.

Xiao Ruxue could not eat for several days because there were no customers in a shop. After all, he underestimated how strong this little girl was.

If Xu Qing doesn't want to find a way to make the bookstore start making profits as soon as possible, Xiao Ruxue will be depressed again in a few days.

Xu Qing is not a person who loves money very much.

As for why Xu Qing was so obsessed with money during this period, it was just because Xu Qing was really too poor during this period.

At that time, Mr. Lin's family only had seven taels of silver in savings, of which five taels were pensions, which could be used up by a minor illness.

There was too little money in hand, which was the source of Xu Qing's sense of crisis.

Perhaps the old Xu Qing could live in poverty and live happily, but his new Xu Qing could not.

There is a difference between survival and life.

It is impossible for Xu Qing, a person who has seen the real prosperous times, to follow the old Xu Qing's way of living.

He wants to live well in this world rather than live well.

There is a difference in realm between the two.

Now Xu Qing is no longer as embarrassed as when he first arrived. Although he is still short of money, with the martial arts storybook that is popular throughout Yongzhou City, Xu Qing will make money soon. It is only a matter of time before he can make money while lying down.

If it weren't for the fact that the reward given by the palace yesterday was too much, Xu Qing wouldn't even want to take a trip through the muddy water.

Since he could relax a little, Xu Qing naturally didn't want to work so hard and put so much thought into running the shop seriously.

But now it is no longer possible. Xiao Ruxue, who has only been open for a few days, is almost depressed by the deserted bookstore. In order to protect Xiao Ruxue, a big flower, Xu Qing has to find a way to attract some customers, at least let Xiao Ruxue

Ruxue could see money coming into the shop.

When they arrived at the shop, Xiao Ruxue was lying on the counter and taking a nap.

It would not be an exaggeration to describe the current situation of Qingxue Study Studio as empty.

On the other hand, the Kaiyuan Bookstore was bustling with people and looked very lively.

The two houses are facing each other. Xiao Ruxue is sitting at the counter and if she raises her head a little, she can see the bustling scene of Kaiyuan Bookstore opposite.

Xu Qing finally understood why Xiao Ruxue was so depressed.

If he were to sit in Xiao Ruxue's seat and watch the opposite side earn a lot of money every day, but here it was difficult to sell a single book, Xu Qing would be easily depressed by the contrast.

And Xiao Ruxue had to watch like this for several days in a row, and it was normal to doubt her life.

After all, this shop can be said to be her entire net worth.

It can be said that this shop is her real hard work. Nowadays, even though the money invested has not come out, it is normal to feel depressed.

Xu Qing felt that it was more uncomfortable for Xiao Ruxue to watch the shop opposite make money than to lose money for herself...

But there is a saying, Kaiyuan Bookstore has been opened in Yongzhou City for more than ten years. If the customer flow for more than ten years was so easily surpassed by a newly opened bookstore, shopkeeper Wang would be pissed to death.

After all, it’s not fair!

Xiao Ruxue looked at Xu Qing, cheered up a little and said, "You're here."

Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue, who was nearly a head shorter than herself, and smiled: "What? Are you discouraged?"

Xiao Ruxue lay on the table and said rather melancholy: "Why do those people flock to that bookstore? It is obvious that the appearance of our bookstore is much better than that of Kaiyuan Bookstore."

Xu Qing leaned next to the counter and asked her: "Is it fair that we can surpass the number of repeat customers that we have accumulated over more than ten years in just a few days?"

Xiao Ruxue's eyes couldn't help but droop again: "What you said makes sense, but I still feel very uncomfortable."

Xu Qing sat down next to Xiao Ruxue, took a pen and paper from the side, spread out the paper, dipped the pen in ink and began to scribble on the paper: Qingxue Bookstore's opening is a big reward, anyone who comes to Qingxue Bookstore with this coupon

Book buyers, buy one, get one free.

After finishing writing, Xu Qing handed it to Xiao Ruxue and said: "Publish this paper in large quantities and let the guys spread it out."

Xiao Ruxue looked at the writing on it and couldn't help but frown her cute little brows: "Buy one and get one free. If you do this, our Qingxue Study will lose the money of one book."

Xu Qing shook his head and said: "You should compare the cost of making a book, not the selling price. Even if we buy one and get one free, we will still make a profit, but the profit will be very small."

Then Xu Qing smiled mysteriously again, raised the price of a book by 30%, and said, "This way we will make a profit."

Xiao Ruxue couldn't help but widen her eyes and said: "No one is selling even two cents of silver, so you still want to raise the price?!"

Xu Qing spread his hands and said, "But we are selling two books, buy one and get one free."

At this moment, Xiao Ye walked in from the backyard. Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ye and said, "Brother Xiao, go find a larger board for me."

Xiao Ye didn't ask any questions and just lifted a piece of wood up.

Xu Qing wrote in calligraphy on it: Do you want to read Yan Wu's new work as soon as possible? Do you want to predict the exciting plot of "Dragon Babu"? Then come to Qingxue Study! Get a sneak preview of the new story!

It’s always three days faster than the bookstore opposite!

After finishing writing, Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ye and said, "Brother Xiao, have someone put this board outside the door."

Xiao Ruxue looked at Xu Qing and said, "What will we do next?"

"wait."
