Chapter 987 The Cunning Bookstore Owner
At eight o'clock, the boss asked people to move the books out one after another.

Someone yelled, "Didn't you say that the sale starts at eight o'clock, why does the move start at eight o'clock?"

The boss smiled and said, "Sell while moving, sir, don't be angry."

"Boss, are there enough books in the warehouse?" Someone asked again.

"Enough." The boss answered firmly at first, but then he lacked confidence, "It should be enough."

Seeing the lack of confidence of the boss, the customers who came to buy books immediately started to move. If there is really a shortage of books, it is better to act early.

But after all, it is in a bookstore, everyone is more or less a cultural person, and if they can’t save face, they will be like grandparents who go to the mall to grab goods on Black Friday. At most, they will stretch out their hands and probe their necks. ".

While maintaining order, the owner of the bookstore shouted, "Don't worry, everyone. This time the bookstore has brought in a lot of books, especially the collector's edition sets. There are dozens of sets."

It's good that the boss didn't talk, but hearing him say that there are only dozens of collector's editions, people became even more excited.

"Boss, give me a collector's edition..."

"Here is also a set..."

"I'll have two sets..."

The boss looked at the hot scene in the bookstore with a smile and was in a good mood.

Just now, he made those unashamed expressions and forceful comforting movements, all to stimulate these consumers.

Of course there are a lot of books.

The Norton bookstore is very large, and the volume of books purchased each time is very large. This time, because it was Zhang Zhong's book and it happened to be in time for an event, the boss made a decision directly, and the volume of books purchased was three times the usual amount.

What if it cannot be sold out?
The boss has not considered this issue. Even if these books cannot be sold out today, they will definitely be sold in the future. The big deal is that they will temporarily occupy a little space in the warehouse.

For the collector's edition alone, he bought more than 200 sets.

Originally, he wanted to buy more, but the channel dealer told him that he didn't have so many for him. Although the collector's edition didn't say limited, the amount released was not too much. He was able to get more than 200 sets because of His bookstore is big and his relationship with distributors is good.

When I got the two hundred sets of books, the boss was still a little worried. After all, such a set of books is really heavy, and most people would never buy such a set of books when they come to the bookstore.

So just now he played a trick and deliberately told them that there were only fifty sets, just to arouse their nervousness.

This is called hunger marketing.

The reality was a little better than he imagined. More than 200 sets of collector's editions were sold, and more than 70 sets were sold in just over an hour, and one-third of them were cleared.

Stuart doesn't know what the boss is thinking. For her, no matter whether the boss is playing tricks or not, her purpose today is very clear, to buy two sets of collector's editions back.

She drove the car on purpose today just to transport the books conveniently.

After buying the book, Stuart didn't stay in the bookstore to read the book. One was because the bookstore was so crowded that it was difficult to calm down and read the book. The other was that he couldn't wait to go back and open the box.

Reading new books is secondary, the main thing is that there will be prizes for the collector's edition this time.

Although she participated in so many events, she never won a prize every time, but she still went to the lottery with great anticipation every time.

This time is no exception.

It took a lot of effort for the boss to move the two sets of books to his home.

There are more than 40 books in this collector's edition set, which are divided into six parts. Each part is contained in a small box with a plastic bag on the outside, and the books inside are not individually packaged in a plastic bag.

This means that she now needs to open twelve boxes, one by one to see if there is a prize inside.

One, there is none of the seven books in it, and the title pages are all blank.

No surprise, of course, as usual...

No wonder you won the lottery.

The second, five books, still nothing.

The third, the fourth...

She has opened the title pages of more than 60 books all the way to the ninth one, but they are all blank. Now she has given up hope and is opening books purely mechanically.

"Well, this one doesn't either..."

Stuart opened a copy of "To Live", glanced at the title page, muttered something, and put the book back casually.

But then she came to her senses, quickly took the book back in her hand, and was about to open it for another look.

When she was about to open it again, she stopped, and then took a deep breath, she was a little unsure if what she saw just now was a hallucination.

After inhaling the weather, she slowly turned over a corner of the cover with excitement, and then secretly looked inside.

There is a black shadow, I can't see what it is.

Open it a little more, gradually revealing the black shadow lineup.

"Congratulations, lucky one——Zhang Zhong."

It turned out to be a combination of Chinese and English signatures. It must have been specially written for the English-speaking area. I didn't expect pz to be so kind to the English-speaking readers this time.

Stuart stroked the paper with his hands excitedly. The sunken mark of the signature felt so wonderful to the touch, as if he could have a kind of spiritual communication with Zhang Zhong through these words.

In the not-too-distant past, pz also opened the title page like her, and then slowly wrote this line with a pen.

There is no need to look through the remaining books, because there will not be two signatures in a set of books, but she still opened the books excitedly to make sure that there are no other signatures.

She took a photo with emotion, and then posted an ins. After being an African chief for so long, she finally got such a chance. She felt a sense of elation.

After doing all this, she remembered that today is still the day when the new book is released, and she hasn't read "The Speaker of the Dead" yet.

He hurriedly picked up a copy of "The Speaker of the Dead" and sat on the sofa to find a comfortable position to read the new book.

Dramas like this are happening in many places around the world, not to mention readers who buy books or passers-by customers who go to bookstores, even some grandparents who pass by the vegetable market in front of the bookstore to buy vegetables will look for such a lively scene. The person next to him asked, "Is this an event?"

Hearing that it was only selling books and not discounting them, the grandpas and aunts were disappointed and curious at the same time, "Tsk tsk, so many people bought this book, it must be very good."

As new books take longer to hit the shelves, there are more and more discussions online about lucky prizes for collector's editions.

There are quite a lot of people in the lottery, but the base is too large, so it is very rare to get the signature this time.

Moreover, the signatures this time are all special signatures with blessings, each language is different, not only that, there is not only one special signature in the same language.
