The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

As time passed, the sun gradually set and the sky was dyed with orange-red sunset.

Even though these young students are filled with the desire to express themselves with rich vocabulary, they have to consider the time constraints of returning to the academy.

"When the script comes out, you must tell me as soon as possible! I will come out to buy it even if I have to skip classes." A student said anxiously.

"And me!" another voice shouted.

"And me!" More voices rang out one after another.

Dalang smiled and agreed, while urging these enthusiastic students:

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you. But you better go back quickly, or you won't be able to enter the academy if it's too late."

When the last student disappeared from sight, Dalang and his brother looked at each other and a knowing smile appeared on their faces.

They knew that the effort of taking time out every day to copy books and rehearse plays was worth it.

Look at those attracted classmates, they have been completely hooked.

This made Dalang and his brothers feel extremely excited and full of a sense of accomplishment.

"Come in and have dinner! Your Aunt Zhou has already reheated the food~" Lin Zhi hurried out of the house and called the two brothers who were still smiling foolishly at the door back into the house.

Just now when they were having dinner, the two brothers were among the students. Everyone thought that they wanted to communicate with their classmates, so they didn't call them back for dinner.

But who knows, it's not that they want to communicate, they are forced. It's much later than the usual dinner time. The two brothers are really hungry.

Wait until the two of them finished their meal voraciously.

Lin Zhi and Daya had also finished washing up and came out of the room.

As soon as Lin Zhi saw them walk into the lobby, he urged again:

"Hurry, hurry, go wash up. Daya and I have already counted today's revenue."

Since we had dinner too late today, if I wait for the two of them to finish counting the revenue slowly, I would probably have to wait until midnight to finish tonight's homework.

Therefore, Lin Zhi had to do it himself and work with Daya to calculate the revenue first.

After a while, the two brothers came out of the bathroom.

At this moment, Daya and Linzhi had already picked up their pens and started doing their own things.

When they saw this situation, they dared not procrastinate any longer and immediately took out their books and started reading.

The preparations for the sale of the novel are almost complete, and Lin Zhi has to hurry up and write the third volume of the novel.

"Mom, when will the first volume of the storybook be on sale? My classmates and friends can't wait!" After quickly finishing his homework, Dalang hurriedly came to Lin Zhi and asked.

Lin Zhi thought for a moment and replied, "I'm afraid we'll have to wait for some time. It won't be available until next month at the earliest."

After all, the group of old scholars will not come to start work until three days later, and we have to wait until they copy a few more copies to prepare inventory before we can officially release it.

"Which day next month is it?" Dalang continued to ask.

"The sixth day." Lin Zhi has a special liking for the number "six".

Dalang nodded to indicate that he understood. However, he did not intend to inform his classmates of the release date immediately.

"So, what is the expected selling price of this book by you classmates?" Lin Zhi asked.

In fact, according to common sense, she should do some market research herself to find out the current sales price of novels on the market.

It's a pity that she was too busy to find time.

Upon hearing this, Dalang immediately revealed the psychological price mentioned by his classmates:

"Some of them think that three or four taels of silver per book is a good deal, but some classmates also say that ten taels of silver is acceptable."

Lin Zhi pretended not to hear the ten taels of silver, which was obviously an exaggerated price.

A serious book can't even be sold for ten taels of silver, let alone a novel.

She silently calculated the cost of writing a novel. Not counting the time she spent on writing it and the value of the book itself, and only taking into account the salaries of her employees and the materials consumed, the cost of a book would fluctuate around two hundred wen.

"Then let's set the price at three taels of silver per copy." After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhi made up his mind and said.

After all, if the price is set too low, it would be a shame to those dead brain cells, but if the price is set too high, the novel would probably be difficult to sell.

Moreover, novels are prone to plagiarism and reproduction in any era, so she had to double the cost of the novel. In this way, the price seemed quite appropriate.

......

On the fifth day of Zhao Mu and Zhao Tu's probation, Lin Zhi officially announced that they were both hired.

After learning the good news, the two were so excited that they cried and hugged each other tightly.

After they calmed down a little, Lin Zhi continued:

"Five new employees will join the company in two days. All three meals a day for these five employees will be provided in the store. By then, Madam Zhou's workload will increase greatly. For the sake of fairness, we need to readjust and redistribute the work tasks today..."

From now on, Madam Zhou will be responsible for three meals a day for the Lin family of four and all employees.

Zhao Mu and Zhao Tu not only had to undertake heavy physical labor, but also had to take on various other chores in the store.

As for other store employees, their original job content basically remains unchanged.
