He immediately said: "Business will be overwhelming these two days. You should immediately ask people to rent some bookshelves and wooden cabinets and put them directly in front of the store. We have occupied this section of the street, but don't affect the main road."

"That person..."

Rin glanced out the window at a group of people wearing monastic uniforms; "The people have already arrived, I will arrange them later.

I was busy from noon until the banquet started, and it was already eight o'clock when Rin came back from the banquet, and the store also started making samples.

Rin asked about the sales situation, and within eight hours, more than 5000 copies were sold.

This is mainly because there are too many people waiting for such a store, and the venue must be expanded tomorrow... just lease the square directly to ensure faster sales.

Considering that the students will leave tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, and his own purpose is to let these people bring the books back to various places, so Rin specially prepared a student-only checkout this time.

The worst thing to think about is a school book.

The results are gratifying today, and will double tomorrow, and they will be sold out in three or four days. This is good news for Rin.

Chapter 110 Seven

The shop has already proofread, and Rin gave some bonuses, and after letting people go, they returned to the reception hall.

Several people got together to discuss today's sales.

"Master Lin, today's momentum is as expected. If this continues, it will be sold out within four days."

Christo's voice was trembling, his little face was flushed with excitement, and his eyes were watery.

From Rin's point of view, "he" looks more like a girl, and feels a little awkward.

In his heart, he secretly thought of a dead woman, and then said seriously: "Don't relax, I don't know what the reputation will be like now."

"In a few days, I will do some research." Christina said firmly.

Rin rolled his dead eyes; "So, do you plan to stay here for a few more days?"

The students of the Royal Academy of Gioral will leave the day after tomorrow, and Rin thought that Mrs. Luo would go with her.

"Um……"

Christina seemed to think of something, lowered her head, pinched the hem of her clothes in a tangled state, and whispered, "So, Master Lin, can I go back with you?"

After she finished speaking, she quickened her tone and added: "I promise I won't disturb you."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Since I'm doing business for this young master, how can I leave you here? But let me say it first, the final exam is coming soon, you have to focus on it, and if you fail the exam, you can see how I clean it up. you."

"I'll work hard."

Christina was very happy, she raised her face and opened her big eyes, staring at Rin, thinking of Rin's suffering again, she felt very pity in her heart.

"puff."

Qi Yu, who was drinking water, almost spit out a sip of tea, saw that everyone was looking at him, coughed lightly, changed the subject and said, "Today's gift list has been counted, congratulations junior, there are 440 gold coins alone. "

"So much?"

Rin was a little surprised by this. There are four kinds of people who came to congratulate this time. The first is nobles and people from the military and government of the empire. The second is some well-known non-noble chamber of commerce presidents. The third is church clergy , and finally some well-known adventurers came here on behalf of the Adventurers Guild.

Among them, the clergy did not give gifts. They came to give blessings and then left after buying a book. The nobles and chambers of commerce were more particular about this, and they mainly gave gifts. former.

Adventurers are informal, but they prefer to give away loot rather than cash.

"Nobles and chambers of commerce are also divided into ranks and ranks."

Qi Yu is very experienced in this, and explained: "The relatively small nobles and chambers of commerce know that no matter how carefully they choose gifts, if they are not very rare, it will be difficult to impress others, but if they are too expensive in exchange for This impression is also a loss, it is not as deep as the impression of sending money directly."

"It is."

Rin touched his chin: "What about the gift? Has it been discounted?"

"Like the eldest princess and the prince, the paintings and handicrafts they sent are not easy to estimate the price and can't be sold, so they ignore it. The rest are about [-] gold coins."

"!"

Lin didn't know what to say in his heart, he could only say that they were really a bunch of damn rich people.

In those false memories, he had a birthday party in his original identity, and only gifts from his peers could be given to him, and most of them fell into the hands of the Duke of Orlan.

That's the big noble and big businessman of Gioral!It is conceivable that the benefits I have lost are countless.

"It seems that we can give more bonuses to employees in the future."

If you want the horse to run fast, you have to feed the horse more grass. Rin still knows this truth, that is, he has given a lot of bonuses to the workers and stewards of the printing workshop, not really nothing.

Of course, those bonuses are nothing compared to the cost savings.

ha?You ask why you exploited Angela... Isn't it only natural to pay back the debt?That's called interest.

What Yin said was voluntary, and what Christo gave was actually a share, and it would not be a lot of profit when the chamber of commerce expanded, so the word exploitation had nothing to do with him.

"Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin, I've done the calculations. The production and handwork fees given by Xiao Lin are the highest. Based on the price of one silver coin and ten copper coins per copy, the total cost of 550 copies is 10 gold coins. If you can sell them all Go out, the price of [-] silver coins is [-] gold coins in total!"

Silly roe deer has no concept of money, but when he thinks of making money instead of spending money, he will instinctively feel happy.

Excluding bonuses and the like, the store's money, including the manuscript fee, can actually make a net profit of more than five times.

Of course, this is because Rin's cost is low enough, the employees' wages have not been paid for the first month, and with the first publicity effect, they have eaten the reputation and the population welfare that the Academy Cup has just ended.

After that, it includes printing costs, the cost of opening chambers of commerce and stores in various places, employee expenses, and even transportation costs and customs duties, all of which are a huge expense.

In addition, once the hot spot is over, the sales trend will be stable, and the income will not be so high. The net profit of a book can be doubled to [-] times, which is an extremely high profit, and Rin's goal is the same.

"This book can reach the best-selling level in the first week. Next, you should pay close attention to Christo. There are other things to do when you return to the capital."

Rin gave an order, and asked Christo to go back to sleep, then chatted with a few girls, and then went back to their respective rooms.

This time, Lina still slept with the silly roe deer, Fei Miao, and Qi Yu ran away without a trace. Rin studied for a while while staring at Xi Ye practicing calligraphy, and went to bed at about the same time.

Just swaying left and right, tossing and turning, I couldn't fall asleep.

It's not that I'm thinking about sex and exams, it's mainly because I slept too much in the past two days, and I made my first pot of gold today, and the excitement hasn't passed yet.

After staying up until past twelve o'clock without falling asleep, Rin simply stood up and walked out of the room.

At this time, Xiye had already fallen asleep on the sofa, and the light in the living room hadn't been turned off yet.

There were two stacks of papers on the table, one of which was for calligraphy practice, and the other was the work report of Xi Ye's leadership this time.

Rin doesn't know much about work reports, but he is good at writing study summaries and experiment reports. He bought a book with a template case before to compare them with each other, and taught them hand in hand overnight.

Picking it up and looking at it, it is considered to be well written now.

The sofa is as spacious and comfortable as a bed, and Xiye is also used to sleeping here, if Rin hadn't dragged her to take the exam, then she would absolutely have to fulfill her duty of guardianship and would not want to share the bed.

Even at this time, she was not completely asleep, and within a few seconds of standing in front of Rin, she had already opened her eyes.

"Brother...how did you wake up?"

"It's okay, get up and turn off the light for some idiot, you go on sleeping."

Rin finished speaking, patted her head, turned and went back to the bedroom.

He actually wanted to go out to take a breather, but if Xi Ye knew, he had to follow, so she wouldn't be able to rest.

So after waiting for a while, after she fell asleep again, Rin changed her clothes rustlingly, opened the curtains and looked at a building in the distance, marked the coordinates, and then turned on the teleportation to transfer there.

There are knight guards at the entrance of the corridor and the door, and he doesn't want to take a walk at night with a bunch of people behind him.

Although his space teleportation can only customize three coordinates, it can be canceled and replaced at any time. There is no cooling time, regardless of the type of coordinates. It is actually more advanced than the intermediate space teleportation magic.

Arriving at the roof of the building in a blink of an eye, Rin stood on the edge, tightening his coat and blowing the cool breeze, feeling refreshed for a while.

Compared with the dizziness and nausea when he first came into contact with the teleportation, he is basically used to it now, and there is no abnormality in his body.

It was an ordinary commercial building, and Rin slid down the ladder at the back of the building, came out of the alley, and walked up the street.

It's one o'clock soon. This place is no different from the bustling Food Street and Custom Street. The nearby shops have long been closed, and the students are resting in the hostel. The street is empty. Occasionally, only two or three people pass by, most of them reeking of alcohol.

Rin was walking aimlessly, and when he was about to turn into a deserted alley again, he quickly backed out.

He still remembers the last time he turned into a deserted alley and encountered a succubus, which affected the curse and all kinds of absurd things after he was sent back.

This kind of place is the most prone to accidents. Boys must protect themselves when they go out, especially when they are alone at night.

After thinking about it, Rin simply walked towards the bridge, thinking about seeing the lake view at night or something.

When we got to the bridge, the night wind became colder. Rin leaned on the railing and looked far away, admiring the dots of lights on both sides of the lake.

The place where the lights are lit is the entertainment area of ​​the city, which is quite far away. At first glance, the reflection of the lights on the lake looks like stagnant river lights, revealing a sense of peace and quiet.

This is a branch of the Henia River, the mother of the Holy Empire. It is the same branch that the witches and demons assassinated Anlu last time. The locals call it the Orange Light Lake.

The reason is that the underwater is affected by the energy of some mineral veins. When the tide comes, a large amount of algae and plankton will rush out of the lake, and the fish will scramble for food.

And these algae are also orange, so under the reflection of light, the lake surface presents a large area of ​​orange light, hence the name.

As a lake that carries the memories of the residents of Glory City from childhood to adulthood, the legends and stories left by Orange Lake are too numerous to enumerate.

When I read the geography of Huiguang before, Rin deliberately expanded his knowledge along the way, and learned a lot of folk stories.

Among them, the most famous one besides the orange-lit lake spirit is the lake banshee who cries and sings in the middle of the night.

The elves here have nothing to do with the elves, they are small in size similar to the flower demons, just like the little elves in fairy tales, different from the elemental elves but of the same class, they are all creatures condensed and bred by a certain force.

However, in the past hundred years, few people have seen the elves, and they suspect that they have moved away. Many young people have only heard about them and are not interested in them.

The story of the Banshee of the Lake is really well-known to every household, because it is an exaggerated and embellished adaptation of real events.

The story originated from a young girl who was mistreated by someone who was unkind, because she could not fight against her noble husband's family, she finally chose to sacrifice her life and become a curse.

The aristocrat's family is on the shore of Orange Light Lake, and the whole family died because of the curse. In the end, the church and the conjurer went out together to resolve the curse.

The source of the curse lies in the body of the female corpse. The church and the empire tried hard but failed to salvage it, and the curse has never been completely resolved.

However, this curse was mainly aimed at the noble family, and it didn't spread much. Over time, the impact became less and less, so the matter was abandoned, and no further labor and material resources were spent on salvage.

But it is said that when a girl comes to the river at night and cries about her tragic experience of being abandoned and being unkind, the banshee will appear to punish the wrongdoer.

The girl loved singing the most during her lifetime. She had a good voice like an oriole. Her dream was to become a singer. Unfortunately, she was tortured and became dumb. This resentment was also embedded in the curse.

When the noble family was silenced, someone heard a midnight crying song from that family, and the voice was the same as that of the girl.

After being exaggerated by folks, playwrights, and storytellers, the story was also exaggerated, and finally turned into a real horror story.

"The bewildered corpse that has been wandering in the lake has turned into a banshee, mourning every night, and coming to the lake at midnight, if there is a low-pitched cry, singing a sad song of mourning, please cover your ears and leave quickly, otherwise the banshee will Will drag it into the lake to be her eternal audience."

Rin silently recalled the legends, and suddenly felt that the surroundings were getting colder, and couldn't help shrinking her neck.
