Dingxianglou lobby

Zhu Yunfeng was sitting at the table drinking tea, eating the snacks brought by Quanfu in his mouth, waiting leisurely for Ma Jin.

Ma Jin hurriedly followed Jin Bao to the lobby. Before he saw him, he heard the sound!

"Brother Zhu, I've made you wait for a long time!"

When Zhu Yunfeng saw Ma Jin coming, he stood up to greet him: "Zisheng, he is here so fast!"

The two of them worked together in business, so their relationship was naturally much closer, and their titles changed. Zhu Yunfeng was older, so Ma Jin called him his brother. Zhu Yunfeng also called him Zisheng, the counterfeit name of Ma Jin, to show his closeness.

The two of them exchanged greetings for a while, and Zhu Yunfeng took the initiative to talk about the serious matter!

"Didn't you let me pay attention to whether there are any printing bookshops in Beijing that I want to transfer? I was worried about this when I went back and asked my business friends to inquire. It's okay, I really encountered a suitable one!" Zhu Yunfeng smiled!

"Oh, Brother Zhu, come and listen!"

Ma Jin was so energetic that publishing books was something he had been thinking about for a long time. Even when he said that he had just spoken, he wanted to print and publish the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Since you want to publish a book, you must print it before you can sell it in the bookstore. There is no Internet or e-books in a big way.

Ma Jin specially found someone to learn about the market of Dagan Bookstore industry. Dagan Chao has no narrative novels. Most of the books sold in the bookstore are collections of classics, history, and sub-districts from previous dynasties, as well as some calligraphy engravings.

The newly printed books in the bookstore are also annotations and collections of poems by some famous scholars and scholars. Most of them are used to give to friends, and few are used for commercial use.

Ma Jin asked a bookstore owner who came to Dingxianglou to listen to books. If Ma Jin wanted to publish the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in his printing bookstore and then sell it in his bookstore, how much would he share!

At that time, the bookkeeper looked at Ma Jin contemptuously and said, "Can you print toys in a book even if you want to buy things in the market? Get up and leave!"

This incident greatly stimulated Ma Jin. Although the name of this novel of the Sui and Tang dynasties is the same as the original time and space, the content is very different. It contains Ma Jin's hard work, which is the mark he left in the Dagan Dynasty. How can people be despised?

For this reason, he, who has always been lazy, decided not to publish books in other bookstores, but to acquire a bookstore and publish the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and to make a big fuss, slap the boss of the bookstore in the face.

After discussing the issue of cooperating with Mei Fang and Zhu Yunfeng that day, Ma Jin remembered the acquisition of the bookstore. He heard that Zhu Yunfeng had been engaged in business for many years and had many connections, so he asked Zhu Yunfeng to help me find out if there were any bookstore shops in the capital that I wanted to transfer. Who knew that Zhu Yunfeng came to the door in less than a day!

"This is a coincidence. This morning, I was about to ask a friend from the Yakushu to inquire about this matter, but I ran into this bookstore shopkeeper in the Yakushu!"

Zhu Yunfeng remembered what happened this morning and was still amazed, praising Ma Jin for his good luck.

"It turns out that this bookstore named Mo Wenju is the property of a doctor from the Ministry of Rites. This doctor is old and is preparing to retire and return home. The children at home do not serve as officials in the capital, so they plan to sell all the industries in the capital. The shopkeeper of Mo Wenju is here to sell it in the Yashang Store. Who knew he met me!" Zhu Yun touched his beard and laughed loudly!

"Brother Zhu, how large is this Mo Wenju!" Ma Jin asked his most concerned question!

"This Mo Wenju is an old bookstore. It is located in Lihua Lane near Zhuangyuan Bridge in the North City, not far from Dingxiang Tower. It will only take half an hour to walk.

According to the shopkeeper An of Mo Wenju, Mo Wenju has a printing bookstore with two printing masters, four apprentices, and three sets of printing molds! One bookstore, one shopkeeper, and three friends, and more than 4,000 books in the store! The scale is considered to be of medium to top in Beijing!

I asked Yaxing’s friend, this shopkeeper An did not lie!”

Zhu Yunfeng obviously understood something, and Ma Jin asked and said immediately!

"Brother Zhu, did that shopkeeper An say how much money Mo Wenju is planning to transfer it!" Ma Jin nodded and asked again!

"He said he was just the shopkeeper, and the price would be determined by their boss. However, according to my friend from the Yashang Store, a bookstore of this size would cost 7,000 taels of silver!"

Zhu Yunfeng didn't understand why Ma Jin wanted to buy a bookstore if he opened a restaurant, but he still told the price he had asked for!

…

"Seven thousand taels!"

Ma Jin's fingers buckled and tapped the table rhythmically, making a pounding sound. This was what he learned from the protagonists in online novels. Those protagonists, when they encountered something, began to knock on the table and think, which was very stylish.

Dongdongdongdongdong

After knocking for a while, Ma Jin couldn't stand it. It was so noisy that he could calm down and think...

…

Ma Jin's cheap father Ma Lu left him more than 5,000 taels of silver. He was originally planning to buy a house for him in the capital and get married, but before he could even get off the cliff and die!

Because Ma Jin has a Dingxiang Building to maintain daily expenses, Ma Jin has not used this money in recent years. Instead, he supplemented the money earned by Dingxiang Building, which was almost 6,000 taels of silver. If you left the 1,000 taels of silver you invested in the theater, there were still 5,000 taels left!

Ma Jin planned to suppress the price with the seller again. If it really didn't work, he would borrow some money from his cheap uncle!

…

However, Ma Jin was still a little hesitant!

Whether to use all your wealth to acquire Mo Wenju? After all, whether novels like the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties can become popular in Daqian is still a question. If the money is wasted, Ma Jin will feel sad!

Bang

After thinking about it, Ma Jin remembered the ugly face of the bookstore boss. He made up his mind that it was only 7,000 taels of silver, and he could still pay it.

Dingxianglou's net profit per day is now more than 20 taels, and a month is 600 taels. In the future, Dingxianglou will launch new dishes, and the profit in the store will increase, with 7,000 taels of silver. He will make it back in less than a year.

"Brother Zhu, do you have time tomorrow afternoon? Let me accompany you to Mowenju to see. If it is appropriate, I will pay for it!"

Ma Jin made up his mind and felt much more relaxed. He invited Zhu Yunfeng to visit Mo Wenju with him!

"Okay, I'm just free tomorrow, so I'll help you keep the price down!" Zhu Yunfeng intends to make friends with Ma Jin and agrees happily!

After the main talks, Ma Jin asked Zhu Yunfeng about the preparations for the theater. After all, he still has the third floor shares of the theater, so he has to care about it.
