……

The next day, half day off.

Although he declined invitations from several classmates to go with him, Tang Ping still put on a mask, sunglasses and a cap, and secretly headed to the nearest bookstore.

"Asky Bird Studio"

The layout of this bookstore is simple, the store is small, and it is clean and elegant from the inside out, showing that the owner is a person with good taste.

There were not many people visiting the bookstore in the morning. The small bookstore was deserted. The most conspicuous places were all top magazines and books.

Tang Ping took a few glances but didn't see the 66th issue of "Dove of Peace". He was slightly disappointed and went deep into the magazine area to look for it.

Chapter 9 Never looked so good

Magazine area·Fairy tale magazine area.

The considerate store manager placed them in a relatively low place so that children can choose freely.

Although those who buy fairy tale magazines are basically parents.

Tang Ping carefully checked up and down several times, and also looked at other surrounding areas, but he still couldn't find the familiar cover.

The store does not appear to be stocking Dove of Peace.

On the contrary, he refused to draft his own "Fairy Tale Empire" and put it aside for several issues.

"What are you looking for?"

The store manager is an old man with a mustache wearing a gray vest, and he has long been paying attention to the heavily covered Tang Ping.

This look of someone who was so afraid of being caught by surveillance cameras simply said "I want to steal" engraved on his face.

Tang Ping hesitated for two seconds. He was the type who was used to not interacting with strangers and only doing things by himself.

But let me ask:

"Is there a Dove of Peace?"

"'Dove of Peace'?" The old store manager was a little surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you want to buy that crap?"

As soon as he spoke, he realized that his tone was not very friendly, so he explained gently:

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not targeting you. In fact, this journal has been getting worse and worse for many consecutive issues, and the quality is getting worse and worse. I can't stand it at all, and I won't enter it anymore."

Sure enough, he didn't make it... Tang Ping couldn't say he was surprised, nor could he say he was disappointed.

From the moment he found a lot of information about the Dove of Peace magazine on the Internet, he knew that the magazine was on the verge of bankruptcy.

"Of course, if what you want is not the latest issue, I still have it in stock."

The old store manager walked to the corner, opened the bottom drawer of the summer vacation, and found the 65th issue of "The Dove of Peace" among many dusty books.

It is not plastic-wrapped, and the corners are slightly wrinkled. At first glance, it looks like it is new.

"This is for return. Although returns are not allowed under normal circumstances, I read the story and found the story really horrific, so I agreed."

The old store manager held up issue 65 and said:

"If you want it, I'll sell it to you for one dollar."

Tang Ping looked at the 65th issue that had been returned, looked at the old store manager, opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Although I have known for a long time that the sales of "Dove of Peace" are getting worse and worse...

But this is too tragic, right?

He shook his head with complicated emotions:

"Thank you and no need, I'm looking for issue 66."

He left this bookstore and headed to the next one.

However, I went to several small bookstores in a row, but there was no "Dove of Peace" for sale.

When I asked, I was told that either they had not ordered any more, or they had only ordered a few copies and they were already sold out.

"It's really strange. Why have so many people asked about the 66th issue in the past two days?"

The store manager wearing glasses was puzzled.

I didn’t see many people buying the 65th issue.

After walking out of the small bookstore and breathing in the fresh car exhaust, Tang Ping decided to change his mind.

There is no need to go to the small bookstore. If you go there, it will be in vain.

Go directly to the Big Library.

Not long after, he came to "Fusheng Bookstore".

This is the largest book mall within 5 kilometers nearby. If you can't buy it here, generally don't expect it.

The reality did not disappoint Tang Ping.

He successfully found the brand new "Dove of Peace" No. 66 still wrapped in plastic in the fairy tale magazine section.

Although the number is only seven, which is not as long as the popular magazines, it is already countless times better than nothing.

Tang Ping felt relieved and took a book from the bookshelf to try reading. He huddled in a corner and pretended to read, but in fact he secretly checked to see if anyone had bought the 66th issue.

"Ah, issue 66! I finally found it. Sure enough, Fusheng Bookstore has it!"

Several girls came here and jumped for joy after seeing the magazine.

It was a classmate. It seemed that like Tang Ping, he also found many bookstores and finally decided to go to the largest bookstore.

"Little sister, there are so many books, do you want to buy them all?"

A yellow-haired married woman opened her mouth in surprise when she saw her female classmates clearing out the shelves, not even letting go of the trial books.

She wanted to educate them about the poor quality of "The Dove of Peace", but several female classmates nodded matter-of-factly and said to him:

"Yes, there is a very interesting story in this book. No, it is a must-read in your life!"

"Why did you say this?" The passerby was puzzled.

"Sister, you'll know after watching it. It's called "The Emperor's New Clothes". It's super good-looking. If you don't watch it, you'll regret it for the rest of your life!"

As the female classmate said, she first went to pick up all the magazines and pay for them, and then enthusiastically lent the trial copies to the yellow-haired wife.

Personal use, collection, missionary work, what we are doing now is missionary work!

The yellow-haired wife took the magazine doubtfully and looked down at the fairy tale with a very ordinary title.

Then quickly immerse yourself in it.

"Pfft", "hehe", "hahaha"...

From time to time, he could not suppress his laughter, which attracted angry stares from other readers.

Fortunately, the frequency of laughter was not high, the voice was not loud, and the voice was spoken by a pretty good-looking woman.

They were patient for a while.

Soon, the yellow-haired wife turned the last page and finished reading "The Emperor's New Clothes".

"Too beautiful!"

She took a deep breath, feeling as if she was lacking oxygen.

I never expected to see such a wonderful story on "The Dove of Peace".

The domineering emperor and the witty heroine are such a good couple!

"Right right!"

Several female classmates were very happy, feeling a sense of joy that their missionary mission was successful.

The yellow-haired wife looked at them and clutched the trial book in her hand:

"Can you sell me this copy? I want to go back and read it to my son!"

Without waiting for the female classmate to reply, she took out her wallet and took out 50 yuan.

A copy of "The Dove of Peace" only costs 5 yuan.

The female classmates wanted to refuse.

But she gave too much.

Tang Ping, who witnessed a criminal transaction at the scene, silently stood up and left Fusheng Bookstore.

No more looking, no more shopping.

With the amount of merchandise that can easily be swept away by a few female classmates, it is estimated that there are not many copies still for sale in the entire city.

……

On the other side, Dove of Peace Magazine.

"Sister Yan Yao, it's out of stock. Many bookstores are out of stock, and they're all calling us to ask for restocks!"

The bald colleague put down the landline phone and shouted to the editor-in-chief Yan Yao with complete uncontrollable excitement.

Yan Yao was wearing a gorgeous Gothic Lolita today. There were various morning teas placed at her work station and she was sipping them demurely.

Hearing the yelling of her bald colleague, she put down the tea cup with white mist and said in a calm tone:

“Then contact the printing house and print a thousand more copies.

"Out of stock is normal, we didn't print much to begin with."

"But we printed less of the last issue, not to mention it was out of stock, and many bookstores even returned it!" said a bald colleague.

This time because of "The Emperor's New Clothes", their company has boldly increased the printing volume. Unexpectedly, more than [-] bookstores called out that it was out of stock in just one day!

The bald colleague was breathing heavily and was excited.

how many days.

He actually saw such a lively market again!

At this moment, he just wanted to cheer:

"Never had a better start!"

Chapter 10 "Cinderella"?

The Dove of Peace magazine is only distributed within the province and adopts a direct production and sales model, connecting the magazine directly to various bookstores.

According to the president who has now escaped into Buddhism, on the one hand, there is no middleman to make the difference, and on the other hand, the voice from the front line of the market can be heard for the first time.

Today was supposed to be a day off, but because I got called several times in a row, I decided to work overtime after a long absence.

"You can handle the sales matters as usual. I'll make more appointments."
