Chapter 67
Chapter 66 : Book seller
The next day, Meng Huo brought three songs to school.
“Will your three capitals play?”
Shen Jie asked with the score, Meng Huo nodded: “Yes.”
“If you meet in the three capitals, give them all to me. I will practice together. I’ll see which one to sing next week.” Shen Jie did not hesitate to accept the score. Although he can’t compose, he reads the score. She learned it in elementary school.
November 20th, Thursday.
Jiang Mao, who lives on Longquan 3rd Road, is the owner of a small bookstore. Just after six o’clock, the sky was dim and did not light up. He carefully observed the situation outside the store and opened the rolling door only when he found that there was nothing unusual.
“Boss, how do you think you are terrified?”
The first guest who walked in laughed.
Jiang Mao saw that he was an acquaintance. This was a male guest on the night shift. He didn’t go home until six in the morning every morning, and occasionally came to the bookstore to buy books.
“You don’t know. Recently, many book sellers from Weekly Youth appeared.” Jiang Mao complained: “Those book sellers will force us to sell magazines to them. I met one yesterday, and then there were no magazines during the day. Sold to customers.”
The man walked to the counter with a copy of “Weekly Girl” and said with a smile: “”Weekly Girl” is very popular, that’s no way. Today is the day when “Weekly Girl” is on sale, I think there should be no problem.”
“What a pity there are serializations above, who knows.”
Jiang Mao took the machine and scanned the bar code of “Weekly Girl”: “Twenty-five Chinese coins.”
Girls Weekly are thinner than Boys Weekly, and the price is lower. However, in fact, the prices of magazines are very low. The leaflets purchased at the same price are only half the thickness of them. The main reason is that the paper quality and images of the leaflets are better.
When sold a magazine, no customers showed up in the bookstore. Longquan 3rd Road was not a central area, and the weather turned cold, and there would be more customers at seven o’clock.
Jiang Mao leaned against the counter, squinting to rest.
“Hey.”
Suddenly, a dull voice sounded like thunder, Jiang Mao looked up, and instantly disappeared from sleep.
“Twenty copies of Weekly Girls, I want them all.”
A man wearing a mask tied a bunch of “Weekly Girls” with a string, and put a few hundred-dollar bills on the counter: “You should be able to sell it!”
He stared at Jiang Mao, his eyes were fierce.
“Will, will…” Jiang took the courage, how dare to disobey, but he cursed in his heart: Why are these book sellers here again!
After selling the book, watching the book seller leave, Jiang Mao accepted the money on the table: “Forget it…”
Anyway, they are all sold. Except for being sorry for other customers, Jiang Mao has no economic loss. And less than one kilometer away from Longquan Third Road is Longquan Middle School. The book seller came here with “Weekly Girl”, looked left and right, and there was no one, turned and walked into the alley.
After half an hour, children going to school appeared one after another.
“Hey, a few classmates over there…Would you like to come over, I am selling “Weekly Girl” here.”
The book seller avoids the sight of the security guards, and specifically picks up groups of children and shouts at them. The book seller’s name is Lu Fei, but he is also a businessman and has recently reselled comic magazines.
“”Weekly Girl”?”
“A lot of people in the class watch it, it’s the one who serialized “Inuyasha”.”
Many students knew this magazine and followed Lu Fei into the alley.
“How much is this?”
“Thirty-six, it’s very cheap, you can buy it together.”
Lu Fei said with a smile, this school is full of wealthy children, but after all, they are children, and one person may not be willing to use the money to buy a magazine.
“Shall we three buy it together?”
“Also, twelve yuan per person.”
The students simply paid for a copy. They left with “Weekly Girl”. Lu Fei quickly added: “I will come here every Wednesday and Thursday, and I will also sell “Weekly Boy”. Welcome you next time. Come again.”
“Will “Weekly Shonen” also have it?”
“It’s great, then we will buy it next week.”
Lu Fei smiled and watched these students leave, thinking that today’s “Weekly Girl” sold out and there is no pressure. Sure enough, it was less than seven o’clock. Except for one for himself, all of Lu Fei’s magazines were sold, and he was very satisfied.
This is the beginning of the day, and the net income exceeds two hundred.
Lu Fei packed up his parcels, moved his position, and walked to the lively pedestrian street. After breakfast, he walked into an alley again and started soliciting customers.
“This little brother, do you want to buy a disc? I have classic blockbusters here, as well as out-of-print collections…”
“A blockbuster?”
“Yes, it is a blockbuster action in the East, and the little brother is a person who knows the goods at first glance, you must understand.”
“Hey, this early morning is not suitable, let’s step aside…how much?”
“Not expensive, twelve yuan per piece, twenty-two pieces.”
“Then let me choose.”
Lu Fei’s job is to sell discs. In recent years, with the strengthening of law enforcement by urban management and cultural departments, this business has become more and more difficult to mix. But he is also a fan of He Xi. Some time ago he suddenly discovered that someone was selling “Weekly Boy”, so the clever Lu Fei also served as a book seller.
After sold the disc for two hours, the figure of the urban management appeared in the pedestrian street, and Lu Fei avoided it skillfully. He knew that these city managers would leave in less than half an hour, and there was nothing to do during this period Lv Fei took out “Weekly Girl” to read.
This time “Inuyasha” has more pages than before, more than 30 pages.
Is there any big story?
Lu Fei couldn’t help getting excited. The plot of “Inuyasha” gradually opened up. Now it is very interesting, but he is still a bit disappointed. The worldview and environment of this comic are very well drawn. The general story is simply a waste of these comic pictures. He has been looking forward to the emergence of a plot turn with ‘brave’ and ‘shock’.
Lu Fei vaguely feels that this issue of “Weekly Girl” will have a big turn.
The beginning of this story is different from before. It no longer tells the story of the journey. Instead, a hag ran to the village where Inuyasha’s journey started and dug up the grave of the Miko Kikyo who died fifty years ago.
Seeing this, Lu Fei was even more excited. Kikyo is the witch who appeared in the opening scene of “Inuyasha”. The bow and arrow she shot sealed the half-demon Inuyasha, and then led to the story fifty years later.
This witch has always made many readers curious, why she rarely reveals her information, so now readers don’t understand what happened fifty years ago. And in theory, Kikyo and Inuyasha should be rivals, but in some of the subtle scenes of the story, sensitive people can find that Inuyasha’s memory of Kikyo is very different.
Is there any story between the two of them? The hag took away the body and soil of Kikyo from the grave… What is she going to do?
This issue of “Weekly Girl” is about to reveal the answer.
