I'm a marquis in Datang

Qian Zailai said, "My lord, how do you plan to expand?"

Du Qi said solemnly: "As time goes on, more and more people will know about our bookstore, and they will also know about Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Gods, so I need you to establish books directly under us in all counties across the country. bookstore."

"what!"

When Qian came again, he exclaimed.

There was an expression of disbelief on his face, because Du Qi's handwriting was too big.

Immediately, Qian Zailai said sternly: "My lord, the cost of building bookstores in every county in the country must be very high. I understand what you mean, I plan to run stores all over the country to form a huge scale."

"However, even if we use the two books Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Gods, because the rest of the places are too far away, our books cannot be delivered for a while. These booksellers who come to Chang'an can buy books. Then it is sold far away, which will affect our business."

Qian Zailai said, "So, I don't think this is appropriate."

"wrong!"

Du Qi shook his head and spoke.

Qian Zailai said: "My lord, where is the little mistake, I beg you to clear up your doubts."

Du Qi continued: "The reason is very simple. Our books are currently updated every two days. Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In the future

, can be changed to update every three days. "

"Imagine, in these three days, my manuscript will come out first, and as soon as it comes out, I will send out the content quickly, ensuring the latest content, and sending it to all counties across the country first."

"In this way, even if some booksellers intend to buy our books in large quantities and resell them to other places, it is useless. Because, during the two to three days without updates, the latest content It has already been sent over, and then printed and sold."

"By the time the booksellers who want to buy the latest content from Chang'an buy books and want to go back and resell them, they have already lagged behind. So in the end, they can only sell them locally, and it is impossible to resell them to other places."

"Especially for publications in various places, we also control a total amount, so that merchants from all over the place can buy from various places in bulk. In this way, on the one hand, the benefits are shared, and on the other hand, we can take the initiative."

Du Qi said: "Then, our bookstores across the country will also be established."

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

On Qian Zailai's face, there was an expression of amazement.

This is to take advantage of a time difference.

If Du Qi's Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Conferred Gods were updated all at once, then it would be impossible for Du Qi to make up for this time difference.However, it is updated time and time again. Every time Chang'an sells books, almost all parts of the country are due to mentioning books.

It was sent out earlier, which means it was sold around the same time.

Even if there is a certain delay due to the distance, it will not be too long.Booksellers in these places want to buy books from other places and resell them back, but they can’t keep up with the time. When they buy books and sell them, the locals have already started selling them.

This is the advantage of time difference.

Qian Zailai clasped his hands together and said respectfully, "My lord is wise!"

Du Qidao: "Do you understand now?"

"understand!"

Qian Zailai answered very firmly, and continued: "Young master, the villain will take Chang'an as the starting point, and gradually go to Chang'an from Chang'an.

Outward expansion.When the entire Guanzhong area stabilizes, it will be rolled out across the country one after another.In short, it is better to be stable than to expand recklessly.Otherwise, the rules will be broken, and the operation of the bookstore will be prone to chaos. "

"can!"

Du Qidao: "Now that you understand, this matter should be handled as soon as possible. The sooner you expand, the sooner the bookstore will earn more money. When it comes to building a nationwide chain bookstore, it cannot be a loose structure. It has to be a complete system."

Qian Zailai said: "Don't worry, my lord, I understand. Especially when it comes to expansion, it's a bit inappropriate to call Zailai Bookstore again. What I mean is that the bookstore needs to be renamed. Please give me a name!"

Chapter 116 Xinhua Wenxuan

Xinhua Wenxuan

After hearing Qian Zailai's words, Du Qi thought for a while, and said, "Since Zailai Bookstore is going to change its name, we will change its name to Xinhua Wenxuan. Since then, Zailai Bookstores in Datang, no matter where they open branches, will use Xinhua Xuan is named."

After a pause, Du Qi continued: "The books in our bookstore must be marked as produced by Xinhua Wenxuan. In short, we must let the people of the entire Tang Dynasty form a perception that it is produced by Xinhua Wenxuan, which must be a high-quality product."

"Your son is wise!"

The money comes again and bows down.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Qian came to ask, "My lord, what is the meaning of the words Xinhua Wenxuan? Since it is the name of a bookstore, it must have a certain meaning."

Du Qi shook his head and said: "There is no meaning. The name Xinhua Wenxuan is catchy and sounds good."

Of course he would not say that he was too lazy to choose a name, so he directly copied the name of a bookstore from later generations.Anyway, it's just a name, nothing to care about.

When Qian Zailai heard it, he frowned.

I don't think it's right.

However, since this is Du Qi's name, especially since Du Qi is a literary giant, he must have intentions, but he will not say it out.

.In the end, Qian Zailai still swallowed the words that he wanted to ask and explore the root cause, and said, "Please rest assured, my lord, I will complete the arrangement as soon as possible."

Du Qidao: "After the establishment of Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore, you served as the general manager of Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore, responsible for the management of Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore in the entire Tang Dynasty. Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstores at all levels have their own managers, but in the end, you are fully responsible. "

Qian Zailai was overwhelmed with excitement, and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will arrange everything. After our Xinhua Bookstore opened in various places, I have already predicted that there may be corruption. I will put an end to this."

Du Qi thought for a while, and then said: "The operation and management of Xinhua Wenxuan bookstores in various places at the local level will not be intervened, and they will be given sufficient autonomy. Of course, the prices of books exclusively sold by bookstores in various places will be determined by the Xinhua Wenxuan head office, and will be unified at the local level. .”

"In addition to this one, set a monthly accounting standard for each branch of Xinhua Wenxuan. As long as the bookstores in various places meet the standard, the excess money will be rewarded by the local Xinhua Wenxuan shopkeeper."

"In short, give local Xinhua Wenxuan shopkeepers the right to manage it."

After a pause, Du Qi continued: "However, the shopkeepers at the local level must obey the management of the Xinhua Wenxuan head office. It is necessary to delegate power, and it must also be able to recover at critical times. This is my respect for the local Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore's request."

"I understand!"

Qian Zailai nodded, as if he already understood.He was very surprised in his heart, because this Xinhua Wenxuan Bookstore, because of its special nature, must be able to make large-scale profits.

Under such a premise, Du Qi is also willing to fully authorize the local shopkeepers, which shows his ambition.In particular, Du Qi's arrangement is tantamount to giving away profits to the local shopkeepers.

Afterwards, Du Qi added some details, and after finishing all the matters of Xinhua Wenxuan, he stopped talking and said: "The situation of Xinhua Wenxuan, I have already said what should be said. Follow-up arrangements are up to you. In short, what I need to see is the result, the final result."

"Yes, I understand."

Now that the money comes again, I am extremely excited.

He felt that following Du Qi was the wisest decision, or his greatest luck.Not only because of Du Qi

Possessing a strategic strategy in his chest, he has extremely high wisdom, and because Du Qi gave him a stage to display his talents, he can operate to his heart's content.
