Su Muyao put down her chopsticks, thinking that she was finally going to speak.

In this kind of situation, whoever speaks first always loses the initiative.

But the shopkeeper was secretly surprised in his heart. It was rare for a little kid to have such a character.

The boss had never underestimated this little girl from the beginning and immediately showed his utmost sincerity.

"Ms. Su, your book is selling very well in my store. I invited you here this time to discuss buying out the book."

After saying this, he looked up at Su Muyao, and seeing that the little girl had a look on her face that said "keep going", he continued speaking.

"According to the market price, your complete book is about three hundred taels. How about I buy out your book for five hundred taels?"

Xiao Xia standing by almost bit her tongue. She never thought that a picture book could be worth five hundred taels of silver. The little princess was really amazing (?▽?).

Su Muyao shook her head when she heard this and said, "A few hundred taels are not enough to buy this picture book."

When Chen Changqing heard this, he was completely shocked.

Could it be possible that Miss Su wanted to sell it for a thousand taels? In that case, they would not make any profit at all, and in the end they would just be working for nothing.

He was just about to explain to Su Muyao why he couldn't sell many books that day.

Then I heard Su Muyao continue: "If you really want to do this business with me, you have to show some sincerity."

"But, this..."

Chen Changqing was a little embarrassed. The doll in front of him exuded a strong aura, but the price he paid was already high, and it really could not meet Miss Su's expectations.

But he really wanted to make this deal, so he sighed.

Su Muyao naturally understood what he was thinking. "Let's not talk about the price for now. Let me ask you, even if you sell this picture book at a low price, how many can you sell in a day?"

After Su Muyao finished speaking, she paused, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then continued.

"Excluding the cost of copying books, the cost of pens and ink, the wages of the waiter in the store, and the money you paid for buying out the picture book, how long will it take you to earn back all this?"

The shopkeeper beside him listened to what Su Muyao said and thought, isn't this how business is done? Why would he ask such a question? It's so strange.

Chen Changqing said, "As long as you sell the picture book to me, I can copy about 150 copies every day."

When Chen Changqing said this, there was inevitably a hint of pride in his tone. Their study had such strength.

"As for the return on investment you mentioned, Miss Su, I wonder what Miss Su thinks."

I originally thought that Miss Su in front of me was such a smart person, but I never thought that she was actually a layman.

This is also why, if one is not a layman, it is impossible that one cannot buy this painting album with just a few hundred taels.

He wanted to hear what ideas Miss Su had, but he thought it would be nothing more than cutting costs and reducing labor costs.

But he had been running the study for so long that he already knew that the price of copying books had already been fixed.

Only if your price is higher than others can you attract those copycats to work for you day and night.

On the contrary, if you cut their wages, those copyists are not fools. There are thousands of study rooms besides yours. It doesn't matter where they write. There is no need for them to work in a place where the wages are lower.

Therefore, there is a reserve price in this industry, which will never be broken.

Even the imperial court employed a large number of copyists. Of course, their prices were much higher than those of copyists outside.

“I don’t plan to buy this storybook, but we can cooperate.

The cost is 60% for me and 40% for you.

Before Su Muyao could finish her words, the shopkeeper beside her tried to interrupt her.

Su Muyao didn't give him a chance to speak and continued, "Don't rush to refuse. Listen to my proposal first."

The shopkeeper opened his mouth and closed it again.

Su Muyao began to tell Chen Changqing about her plan, "You are responsible for the sale of the sketchbooks, and I will be responsible for writing the sketchbooks. As for production, you only need to provide ink and paper."

"That's a pretty good deal. What's 150 books a day? In my opinion, these 100 or so are just small fry."

The boss raised his eyebrows at this time. He had previously thought that although Miss Su was still a baby, she was steady in her work. But now it seems that she is such a arrogant person.

He didn't interrupt the little girl in front of him, he just wanted to hear what she had to say.

"Besides, don't you just want to do business in Beijing? Wouldn't it be a pity if you don't expand this business to other parts of the country?"

"You just need to agree to cooperate with me, and even if you publish 2000 books a day, it will be no problem."

The shopkeeper beside him was very disdainful of what he said before, but since his boss was right in front of him, he had no right to say anything.

After hearing this, Chen Changqing was shocked!

I originally wanted to see what she had to say, but I didn't expect her to say that publishing 2000 books a day was no problem.

He just shook his head slightly. This number was so high that even for the government it would be difficult to guarantee that 2000 copies, let alone 1000, could be copied.

But seeing her confident look, he couldn't help but waver, "Ms. Su, are you serious?"

Before Su Mu could open his mouth to make a promise, he heard Chen Changqing add: "If you can guarantee that you will do as you say every day, then I agree to cooperate with you. But if you can't do it, it's hard to say."

When Xiao Xia, who was standing by, heard this, her eyes flew over with daggers.

How come her little princess couldn't get to her, so he wanted to eat her alive? I wonder who gave him the courage, huh.

But it was not for a little girl like her to decide whether the young princess discussed business, let alone interrupt.

Although he was angry, he could only glare at the boss and the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper felt goosebumps all over his body. Why did this maid look like she wanted to kill him?

Su Muyao also understood what Chen Changqing meant. "Don't worry, Boss. Since I said so, I can definitely do it. If I can't do it, I will still give you this sketchbook without charging you a penny."

After saying this, he raised his teacup and said, "Then let's use tea instead of wine. I wish us a happy cooperation."

When Chen Changqing heard this, he was naturally very happy.

No matter whether Miss Su can accomplish it or not, I will not lose out!

If this is successful, his study may become famous all over the world. If it fails, he will not have to pay for the painting album, which is equivalent to saving hundreds of taels of silver.

What do you think? This is also a good deal.

After getting her guarantee, I believed it a little more. If they could really do it, their study would be famous all over the world in the future...

He also raised his glass, clinked it with hers, and drank it all in one gulp.

The moment I put down the wine glass, my heart was filled with anticipation and excitement.
