The guests around were inevitably a little nervous.

No one knows what this big man wants to do.

Unexpectedly, Hua Qiang opened the book without saying a word, tore off a page, tore it into pieces, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it with a "gul" down the stomach.

Every half a minute, he had eaten several pages of a book, not only Qi Feng, but even the others were all stunned.

Finally, Qi Feng suddenly regained his composure. Seeing that Hua Qiang was about to continue eating, he quickly reached out his hand to stop him, and said, "Teacher Hua! Don't do this! Don't do this!"

"Don't stop me!" Huaqiang said excitedly: "I, Huaqiang, always keep my word. This is a good book! Since I lost, I have to eat it!"

"Mr. Hua, don't get excited!" Qi Feng said with a wry smile, "That's just a joke, as long as you like this book, we're already satisfied!"

"Can I not be excited?" Hua Qiang sighed and said, "Yesterday I finished reading this novel in one go, and now all I can think about is the next plot, and I haven't slept all night, little brother, this When will the second volume come out?"

"Don't worry, it will be on sale soon!" Qi Feng said, patting his chest.

"Why are you so sure?" Hua Qiang looked suspicious: "The more exciting the novel, the more it needs to be polished, and the writing speed will naturally be slower. How can it be said as soon as it is said?"

Hua Qiang also used to be an editor, and he knew how painful it was to press novel writers for manuscripts, especially those talented writers, whose tempers became more and more eccentric, and the manuscripts could not be handed in if they were slightly dissatisfied.

And the author who can write such a masterpiece as "The Legend of the Heroes of Luoyuan" must be even more difficult to deal with.

170 A gift for my sister (plus more)

"To tell you the truth..." Qi Feng whispered next to Hua Qiang's ear, "In fact, I am the author of "The Legend of Luo Yuan Heroes", Li Yue smiled and laughed."

"Really...Really?" Hua Qiang had a puzzled expression on his face when he heard it.

After all, if he is really "Liyue Xiaoxiaosheng", how can he work as a bookstore clerk here?

Qi Feng seemed to see Hua Qiang's doubts, and said with a smile: "The reason why I am here as a shop assistant is just to see how my first work sells."

"First!"

This time, Hua Qiang was even more surprised: "You are actually a new writer?"

It's no wonder Hua Qiang didn't believe it. "The Legend of the Heroes of Luoyuan" is undoubtedly very sophisticated in writing style and plot arrangement, and it doesn't seem like a work that a rookie author can write.

"That's right," Qi Feng said cheekily, "This is my first attempt at writing a novel."

"Genius! Genius!" Hua Qiang patted his thigh and said, "Qiufeng Shuyuan, this time I really found a treasure!"

"Thank you." Qi Feng smiled slightly, and said, "Su Wenhua's editor-in-chief's novel reviews are quite popular, and I hope you can promote my work a lot."

"You're welcome! Even if you don't say it, I will definitely promote such a classic work!" Hua Qiang nodded heavily, and said, "I'll go back and write a first draft now!"

After all, without waiting for Qi Feng to stay, Huaqiang laughed and walked out of Qiufeng Bookstore, not minding that there were still a few scraps of books on his side.

"That...that..."

At this moment, a timid voice suddenly came from behind Qi Feng, and a girl in a nun's uniform was standing behind her, with a shy expression on her face, "Excuse me... here is the Is it Qiufeng Bookstore?"

The girl looked about sixteen or seventeen years old at most, her blue eyes were as clear and transparent as spring water, her beautiful blond hair was tied into two curving ponytails, and her appearance was even more delicate like a porcelain doll, which made people feel ashamed. I couldn't help feeling like I wanted to protect her.

Qi Feng recognized her identity at a glance, because she was one of the 99 girls he had captured [Shining Idol Barbara].

The praying pastor from Westwind Church in Mond City is also the shining idol of Mond City.

Qi Feng was startled, but he quickly regained his composure, and said with a smile, "This girl probably isn't from Liyueren's family. That's right, this is Qiufeng Bookstore."

"I... I'm from Monde. I came to Liyue Port because of the work in the church, and I'm leaving tomorrow." Barbara lowered her head and poked her two index fingers lightly at each other: "So, I want to buy some presents for my sister before I leave."

"Oh?" Qi Feng naturally knew that Barbara's "sister" was Qin Gurnhild, the acting head of the West Wind Knights, but he still asked knowingly: "So, your sister also likes to watch A novel?"

"Yes!" Barbara nodded quickly: "My sister is usually very busy with work, and in her spare time, she only has one hobby of reading novels, so, I think if I can buy a Liyue-style novel, my sister will also read it." Are you happy?"

"Then you have come to the right place," Qi Feng said with a chuckle, "Our Qiufeng Bookstore has just opened, and there are currently discounts for the whole site. I don't know what kind of novels your sister likes to read."

"Just... just..." Barbara blushed slightly, and said in a mosquito-like humming voice, "It seems to be...a novel about...about love."

Qi Feng is naturally aware of this.

After all, in the plane of attacking Qin, Qi Feng was favored by Qin as a "romance novelist".

"Understood!" Qi Feng casually picked up a copy of "The Legend of Luo Yuan Heroes" beside him, and said with a smile: "I recommend this book, it is a popular work that has been sold recently."

"Really?" Barbara nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, the bookstores around seemed to all enter the bookstore for this novel, but she still asked with some doubts: "But, this Isn’t it a novel that boys read?”

Although Barbara didn't do much research on novels, she knew in her heart that novels were read by both men and women, and this "Legend of the Heroes of the Fallen Kite" was obviously more popular with men.

"Don't worry," Qi Feng patted his chest and said with a smile, "I guarantee with the reputation of Qiufeng Bookstore that your sister will definitely like this novel."

For some reason, even though it was the first time she saw this man, Barbara somehow felt a sense of trust in him, so she nodded and said, "Okay, how much is it? I'll buy a copy."

"The sincerity is five thousand Mora, but for the sake of the girl's cuteness, I'll give you a [-]% discount." Qi Feng put his finger on his lips, blinked and said, "This is a special price for you. But don't make a fuss about it."

[Barbara's affection for you has increased by 10 points, currently: 10]

"Thank you..." Barbara also replied in a low voice, "I'll take the money now...Huh?"

Suddenly, Barbara frowned, with a surprised expression on her cute little face, she muttered to herself, "Oops, I seem to have forgotten my purse!"

Forgot your wallet?

Qi Feng smiled wryly in his heart. Could it be that Zhong Li's symptoms have already affected even the people of Mond?

He knew in his heart that Barbara was not deceiving himself. Her personality was different from her little strict sister, and she often made some little confusions.

"It's over, it's over!" Barbara was so anxious that she seemed about to cry, she bit her lip and said, "If you go back to get the purse now, it will definitely be too late."

"It seems that you have encountered a little trouble." Qi Feng shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "In this case, you can accept the book first, and if you want money... just let it go first."

"Then how?" Barbara quickly shook her little head like a rattle: "You are open for business, how can you just give customers free of charge."

"Just treat it as a gift from me personally, for the sake of your sisterhood," Qi Feng said while wrapping the book, and tied a beautiful bow tie thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "The item has been sold , no refunds or exchanges, just take it."

Barbara looked at the book in her hand, with a grateful expression on her face, she hesitated a little, and said: "I will definitely find a chance to return the money to you, by the way, my name is Barbara , Sister of the West Wind Church in Mond City, if you come to Mond City if you have time, please come to me and let me return the money to you!"

171 Sister's Gift

After all, Barbara bowed deeply to Qi Feng again, then turned and left, hugging the novel Qi Feng gave her, and excitedly said: "Barbara~Chongya~"

Looking at the back of Barbara bouncing away, Qi Feng felt happy for no reason.

He is really a gentle, sweet, understanding child...

Moreover, when thinking that this "understanding" is also reflected in other directions, Qi Feng's face could not help but blush.

He quickly patted his cheek, and said to himself: "Don't think about it, everyone has a wife and children, why can't you control yourself so much?"

"Tsk tsk!"

At this moment, behind Qi Feng, there was a sudden smirk.

I saw that Xing Qiu was standing behind him, looking at Qi Feng. I didn't know when he had a folding fan in his hand, covering his mouth. His two beautiful eyes were also bent into the shape of a crescent moon: "Brother Qi , to be so kind to a cute girl, and even take the initiative to send books!"

"Cough cough!" Qi Feng coughed twice quickly, his old face blushed and said, "It's a big deal, it's on my account."

"Hee hee, I don't care about the money. Besides, this store also has half of your shares, and you are also half of the store manager. There is no need to calculate it so clearly." Xingqiu shook his head and said with a smile: "However, If I tell my sister-in-law about this, what will she think?"

"Okay! How dare you threaten me, brat!" Qi Feng immediately put his arms around Xingqiu's neck, dragged her to his chest, pinched her cheek with the other hand, and cursed with a smile : "See how I punish you!"

"I admit defeat! Is it okay if I admit defeat?" Xingqiu hurriedly begged for mercy, and said with a smile, "I'll just keep it a secret for you!"

When Qi Feng heard this, he let go of Xing Qiu's body, but he only felt that the fingers that he had pinched Xing Qiu just now seemed a little greasy, as if something was stuck to it.

Can a boy's skin be so good?

It seems that the young master of a rich family should have some special nursing skills, and if he has the opportunity in the future, he should learn from Xingqiu.

"You didn't keep it a secret for me. I gave that girl a book for a purpose." Who knows, Qi Feng said solemnly: "That girl is from Mond. If we use this method, Sending "Legend of the Heroes of Luoyuan" to other countries, maybe it can also open up the market in other countries."

"So that's it!" With Xingqiu's business mind, he immediately understood Qi Feng's intentions, nodded, and said, "However, I wonder if readers in other countries can accept Liyue's novel style?"

Xingqiu's worry is also justified. Although the Tivat continent has a common script and language, the cultural differences between different countries are still very obvious.

Although the story of "Legend of the Heroes of Luoyuan" has a fictional background, it still has a strong Liyue cultural style. Readers from other countries may not be able to read it.

"This depends on luck," Qi Feng didn't dare to promise, so he had to smile helplessly: "However, I believe that truly interesting stories can transcend the boundaries of countries."

"A really interesting story can transcend the borders of the country..." Xing Qiu whispered this sentence softly, but there were bursts of light in his eyes.

"what?"

Suddenly, Qi Feng frowned. He picked up a piece of pure white ribbon from the ground. It looked quite delicate. It should have been accidentally thrown on the ground when Barbara left.

Alas, she really is a confused and forgetful girl...

Qi Feng smiled wryly. Since Barbara said she was leaving Liyue Port just now, she probably had no chance to come back to get the ribbon, so Qi Feng put the ribbon in her arms, thinking, if she really had the chance in the future, Go to Mond City and return this item to Barbara.

…………

At the same time, in front of the Monde City embassy in Liyue Port, a carriage has been loaded and is about to leave.

"Barbara, we're leaving." A tall, tall, blond-haired, wearing glasses, wearing a white monk's uniform, a middle-aged man with a gentle appearance, standing beside the carriage, said with a smile on his face. : "Is there anything else you didn't bring?"

If Qi Feng was here, he would definitely show a very surprised expression, because this middle-aged man who does not seem to be special is the bishop of the West Wind Church in Mond City, Simon Pey, who is known as the "Cardinal of Dawn". strange.

Of course, in Qi Feng's impression, the archbishop seemed to have no good looks towards him. After all, his two daughters had been neglected by him.

I saw Barbara running out of the embassy in a hurry, her little face was full of anxiety, and she said, "Dad! The ribbon my sister gave me...I can't find it!"

"Is it a gift from Qin?" Simon Page frowned slightly: "It is indeed a very important thing, but we are going back soon, otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach the post tonight."

"But...but..." Barbara was so anxious that she almost shed tears, she bit her lip and said, "It was a birthday present from my sister, if I lost it, she would definitely be very angry."

"Don't worry, Qin is not that kind of stingy child," Simon Paige comforted softly: "And, didn't you also prepare a gift for her? Let's go."

Although Barbara was very reluctant to part with the gift her sister gave her, she thought that as long as she didn't tell her sister about it, she wouldn't be angry, so she nodded helplessly, holding the gift prepared for Qin, Stepped into the carriage of the carriage.

…………

Because of the great sales of "The Legend of the Luoyuan Heroes", the turnover of Qiufeng Bookstore on the second day was three times that of the first day. Customers who have already bought books have specifically repurchased them.

Of course, due to the increase in customer traffic, the marketing volume of other books has also been driven, and a lot of sales have been made.

On the third day, the second volume of "The Legend of the Luoyuan Heroes" arrived as scheduled. Along with this classic novel, there was also the latest issue of "Fiction Review" that day. The most prominent article on the cover was precisely Editor-in-Chief Hua's book review of "Legend of the Heroes of Luoyuan".

Half an hour after the door opened...

"It's not good, brother Xingqiu!" Qi Feng, who was wearing a salesman's uniform, walked into the office while wearing rough clothes, his face was full of anxiety, and said: "The big thing is not good, the big thing Already!"

172 Qi Feng, Storyteller

"What's the matter?" Xing Qiu immediately showed a surprised expression on his face, and quickly asked, "What happened? Could it be that the second volume didn't sell well?"

"No...it's not..." Qi Feng took a breath, and then said: "Yes...the sale is too good."

"Sold well? Isn't that a good thing?" Xing Qiu asked with a puzzled face, "What's wrong with that?"

"The problem is, our inventory has been sold out." Qi Feng shook his head helplessly, and said, "Now, those guests who haven't snatched the second volume of "The Legend of Luoyuan Heroes" are going crazy. People have been queuing at the door since the early morning, if they can’t buy it, who knows what trouble they will cause.”

Not to mention Xingqiu, even Qi Feng himself didn't expect that his novel could become popular to such an extent.

However, this is also a matter of course. After all, the "original work" of this novel has sold at least tens of millions of copies, not to mention that there are many pirated copies. Its best-selling level is ranked first even in the world of.

"It's sold out so quickly?" Xing Qiu was surprised and happy, and quickly said: "Don't worry, in order to deal with this situation, I have already notified the printing factory to reprint the book in advance. I just didn't expect it to be so soon. There is a chance for a reprint!"

For practitioners in the publishing industry, it is naturally extremely happy that the works they are responsible for can be reprinted and reprinted.

"Go and stabilize the situation first!" Xing Qiu said quickly, "I'll go and notify the printing factory to send the book over now."

"Stable the situation?" Qi Feng listened, but couldn't laugh or cry in his heart: "How can I be stable?"

Although he felt helpless, Qi Feng still had to accept this "difficult" task.After all, he can also be regarded as the deputy store manager of this store, Xingqiu is in charge of the interior, while he is in charge of the exterior.

Back in the store, as expected, the door was already crowded with dissatisfied audiences. Everyone had queued for a long time, but now they got nothing. It is normal to be angry.

"Everyone, please be quiet!" Qi Feng comforted him helplessly: "The new books will be delivered soon, please don't worry."

However, the guests at this time were already in extreme emotions, and they didn't listen to Qi Feng's words at all, they were still trying to surpass each other.

At this moment, a clear but extremely penetrating voice suddenly sounded from the crowd: "Quiet!"

Although the voice was not loud, but for some reason, everyone who heard these two words immediately fell silent.

I saw a beautiful woman in a dark brown gown slowly walking out from the crowd, and said expressionlessly, "Listen to what he has to say."

Zhong Li!

Seeing the woman in front of him, Qi Feng almost didn't dare to move to tears.
