Going to immortality inexplicably

Chapter 83 Map Information

The bookstore in Ethereal City has a much richer variety of books than the bookstore in Taro City. Not only are the legends more colorful, there are also some pamphlets on common basic common sense.

As long as you are literate, you can get a lot of common knowledge about life through reading. However, most civilians are illiterate, so such pamphlets are like a sacred book to them.

The children of the aristocracy have been literate and read since they were young, and they can understand many common sense of life without reading. There is no demand for such booklets, so there is no sales volume of such booklets, and only a small part of them are displayed in bookstores. Some samples.

Fan Xiaoxiao's eyes shone when she saw these pamphlets, as if she had found a treasure. This was exactly what the Tiejiacun group needed to learn and understand. Her way of thinking was often influenced by the ways of thinking on earth left in her body. Unable to fully integrate into this place, these pamphlets would allow her to see the true face of the Black Wind Continent more clearly.

Fan Xiaoxiao almost emptied all kinds of booklets in this unknown bookstore because the number of each type of booklet was limited, and some even only had one, which resulted in many booklets becoming blank spaces in the bookstore.

Has the reading culture in Kongling City changed?Has anyone begun to pay attention to this pamphlet that has never attracted anyone's attention?

Fan Xiaoxiao's behavior not only attracted the attention of many clerks, but also attracted the attention of some customers.

Some people come to bookstores just to browse casually, without any specific purpose of buying books. Such people are easily attracted by other people's book buying behavior, and then follow the trend and buy several copies of the same book.

As a result, the bookstores that had not been read for a long time were suddenly cleared out of the bookstores, so that those who planned to follow suit later did not grab them at all.

This situation was unexpected by the bookstore clerks. Someone quickly reported the situation to the boss, who immediately sensed some different business opportunities.

Before that, those brochures were just a facade for the bookstore, just to prove that the bookstore had a rich variety of books.

Anyway, those brochures are not worth much money, and the cost is even lower. All the bookstores in Ethereal City have a backlog of such brochures in their stores.

Of course, it is impossible for such unmarketable things to be accumulated in the warehouse. All the pamphlets are placed on the bookshelves in the bookstore.

The boss was quite sure that if it weren't for that girl, this kind of pamphlet would never be read.

That girl not only bought a lot of these pamphlets that had been backlogged for many years, but also led many people to follow suit, which was a bit unexpected.

So how long will this trend-following phenomenon last?Will it continue tomorrow?

Those who follow the trend and buy books may not continue to buy them if they feel that these pamphlets are useless when they go back.

But if this kind of following the trend is known to more people and they follow suit, it might lead to a wave of trends.

Many people in bookstores are asking now, why did those booklets disappear so quickly?When will it happen again?
The boss thought about it for a while, and finally decided to buy another batch of pamphlets, and to expand the variety of pamphlets, even if they overlap with each other.

Anyway, this kind of booklet has always been the hardest to sell, and the cost is the lowest. He has already made several times the profit from the booklets he has sold now. Before other bookstores have reacted, he will buy more. .

Fan Xiaoxiao didn't know that he just randomly selected a few books and actually triggered a reading craze.

The handsome clerk who was following her had already carried a lot of books, and he also ran to the checkout area several times to temporarily store the books she picked out together so that they could be settled together at the checkout.

"Don't worry, girl, our bookstore will deliver the books to customers who buy a lot of books."

The clerk seemed to be afraid that Fan Xiaoxiao would be worried about picking too many books and would not be able to take them home, so he quickly assured her.

After all, many people buy things on a whim. Once they go back, they may regret buying too many things.

Therefore, the store's strategy is to let you buy enough after one visit, and you don't have to worry about not being able to take it back later. We provide full service to the end.

"Thank you!" Fan Xiaoxiao nodded and continued to shuttle between several bookshelves.

She is now the biggest customer in the bookstore and has selected the most books. Many customers no longer read books, but look at the books she selected and then see if there are any similar books.

The boss had been alarmed for a long time. He personally came to the checkout area to see what books Fan Xiaoxiao had selected.

The clerk who was moving books next to Fan Xiaoxiao met the boss and quietly told Fan Xiaoxiao that he wanted to buy a map.

The boss looked at Fan Xiaoxiao walking back and forth among the bookshelves with a deeper look.

Who is this girl?Not only are most of the books selected are pamphlets that no one cares about, but they even dare to ask about forbidden items such as maps in the bookstore.

If the store clerk calls the police, the city's guards will come directly to arrest the person.

Of course, the clerk generally would not choose to call the police. After all, the person is a customer, and the main purpose is to buy books, while the clerk's main task is to receive the customer well.

However, it would be a different matter if he was a wanted criminal in the city.

The clothes are very simple, just like ordinary civilians.

But people who can read so many books are definitely not ordinary civilians.

These books are all-encompassing, not only containing some secret legends, but also all kinds of unpopular knowledge that rarely attract people's attention.

There is no romance story that noble ladies like to read most.

Although the boss is a bookstore owner, he has not read many books. After all, he is a businessman, not a scholar.

Businessmen are best at observing words and expressions, and through a short observation, he felt that Fan Xiaoxiao was a mysterious girl.

Identity cannot be obtained from clothing. Generally, noble ladies wear the most gorgeous clothing to show their status.As for civilian girls, most of them have to struggle for life and have no chance to study.

But this girl, wearing the most ordinary dress, was quietly walking back and forth between the bookshelves.

Fan Xiaoxiao finally finished selecting and could no longer find the book she wanted to buy, so she walked to the checkout area.

The clerk who was following her placed the last pile of books on the floor and stood quietly beside her.

Several stacks of books were stacked neatly together, and they were as tall as one person.

"so much?"

Fan Xiaoxiao also didn't expect that he would choose so many books after going back and forth.

"Girl, if you buy so many books, you are a valued customer of our bookstore. We can give you a [-]% discount."

The boss is a middle-aged man in his late forties. Because most of the people the bookstore receives are scholars, he speaks in a gentle manner.

"Only [-]% off? Can't you get [-]% off?"

Many bookstores in China offer [-]% off!
"Girl, our bookstore has a small profit, so we will lose money if we give it [-]% off." The boss did not expect that this girl could actually bargain. Those aristocratic children never bothered to bargain.

"Let's do this. We also hope that girls will come to our bookstore to buy books more often in the future. I will set the price for her alone and give her a [-]% discount. From now on, girls will always buy books at this discount."

Suddenly, not only the handsome clerk standing next to him, but also the cashier clerk showed a shocked look.

Is [-]% off an exaggeration?Are you deliberately putting on this expression to make me feel like I'm getting a big deal?

For a Chinese who occasionally goes shopping with her mother, bargaining is an essential skill. Although she has not seen all the boss's tricks, she has seen some of them.

As my mother said, never believe what a businessman says. Maybe he is saying that he has lost money, but secretly he may have made a lot of money.

"OK, thanks!"

Although I know some tricks, I have to accept the reality.

My purpose is to buy books. It is not easy to buy the book you like. Bargaining is necessary, but even if the other person has a lot of money, I still want to buy it.

My sister is now a rich person and has no shortage of money!
And [-]% off is much cheaper than [-]% off. Looking at the piles of books, a five-point discount is not a small amount.

Seeing that the price was agreed upon, the clerk at the cashier began to calculate the books one by one, and the clerk who had been following Fan Xiaoxiao neatly stacked the calculated books one by one and began to pack them.

"I heard that the girl wants to buy other things?"

Hearing the boss's question, Fan Xiaoxiao immediately thought of the map he had asked about.

Now the boss didn't say the word "map" directly. Maybe there were too many people in the bookstore and the boss had some scruples.

It shows that the map is really prohibited, otherwise the boss would not be like this.

"Yes, do you have it here?"

"No, we can't have such things in our bookstore." The boss shook his head.

Fan Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, not expecting that Kongling City had such strict control over the map.

"However, the girl is now a distinguished guest of our bookstore. I can provide the girl with some information."

The boss said, turned around and walked behind the cashier.

Fan Xiaoxiao hesitated for a second, and then followed the boss cautiously.

She is not afraid of her boss cheating her. As someone with the old man's radar, there are very few people in Ethereal City who can threaten her.

However, she still had to look cautious and not let people think that a young girl didn't even have the basic precautions and caution.

That either makes people think she has something to rely on, or makes people think she is a stupid person.

The former makes people fearful, while the latter makes people feel deceived.

Fan Xiaoxiao followed the bookstore owner, always keeping a distance of about one meter.

The boss didn't stop until he reached a dark place, and Fan Xiaoxiao stopped immediately.

"You can't tell, the girl is young but has a lot of courage."

Fan Xiaoxiao didn't answer, just looked at the boss calmly.
