Yun Tianqing smiled, put down his teacup, and said,""We are united as one, working together, advancing and retreating together. I believe that this is only the beginning, and the future will be far more than this!”
All the shopkeepers agreed.
After the shopkeepers quieted down, Yun Tianqing continued,""Although we have a rough guess about the sales volume of each of us, we still need everyone to confirm it so that we can further consider how to develop.”
Hearing Yun Tianqing's words, all the shopkeepers became serious. It was business to talk about business. It was the duty of a businessman to talk about the matter.
Shopkeeper Chen was the first to speak,""From the first day to yesterday, in seven days, our Extraordinary Tales Bookstore in Chang 'an sold a total of 1.03 million biographies. The other branches of the Great Tang had sold a total of 6.45 million copies, and there were still many bookstores that were not prepared enough to sell any books.”
Shopkeeper Chen's voice was trembling when he mentioned the number of items sold by the other provincial branches. He had never seen so many books being sold in his life, and there were even many people who could not sell them.
Although the others knew their own sales situation and could roughly guess the sales situation of others by comparing them horizontally, it was still very shocking to hear it from others.
After Shopkeeper Chen finished speaking, Shopkeeper Huang of Chang 'an Bookstore also said,""In seven days, the Chang 'an Bookstore sold a total of 1.15 million copies in Chang' an City, and the other provinces of the Great Tang sold a total of 6.75 million copies.”
Soon, the total sales volume of Chang 'an Fortress and other provinces in the past seven days were out.
The Twelve Bookstores in Chang 'an City sold a total of 8.57 million biographies!
The other 364 provinces of the Great Tang had sold a total of 68,580,000 novels!
In total, there were 77,150,000 books!
When they heard this amount, several shopkeepers had already taken out life-saving pills and swallowed them.
Although everyone had their guesses, they did not expect it to be this number! 70 million books, even if he said it was 80 million books, no one would have any objections. They knew that there were many branch bookstores that sold until there were no books to sell!
"This is really unbelievable. I'm afraid that even the number of books printed during the time when the philosophers were at the same time and the hundred schools of thought were contending was probably not as many as ours! And it's only been seven days!"
Shopkeeper Huang was trembling. Yes, he was one of the ones who ate the life-saving treasure pill just now.
The other shopkeepers weren't any better. It was already a sign of their mental fortitude that they were able to persist and not be frightened by this amount.
Seeing that the shopkeepers were still so excited that they couldn't control themselves, Yun Tianqing didn't pour cold water on them. He just looked at the shopkeepers quietly and drank tea from time to time.
After a long while, the shopkeepers finally calmed down and said to Yun Tianqing in embarrassment,""I'm sorry, Pavilion Master Yun. We lost our composure.”
"It's fine. I'm also very happy to have today's results. However, were the shopkeepers satisfied?”Yun Tianqing stopped smiling and looked at the shopkeepers seriously.
"This…"
The shopkeepers were confused. They looked at each other and did not quite understand what Yun Tianqing meant.
"Pavilion Master, if you have any thoughts, why don't you just say it? We'll definitely listen attentively.”
Shopkeeper Chen replied respectfully, and the others also agreed.
"I don't like to beat around the bush, so I'll be straightforward. Everyone had eyes to see and ears to hear about the sales situation this time. As long as we maintain this level of content and make sufficient preparations, it shouldn't be a problem for the Great Tang's 365 provinces to exceed 100 million volumes. I wonder if the shopkeepers have any objections to this?”
"We naturally have no objections."
"The others may not know what the situation in the Wonderful Dream Book League is like, but everyone here and I know it very well. It was just a loose alliance with Odddream as the center and the Twelve Book Houses as the main body. At present, it was only implemented according to the general rules set by the Mysterious Dream Pavilion, and the relevant rules were only for the publication of the Mysterious Dream Book Alliance.
"If we don't change it, based on the current situation, I'm afraid we can only maintain this level for a long time.”Yun Tianqing stopped smiling and looked at the shopkeepers calmly.
The others did not interrupt and waited quietly for Yun Tianqing to continue.
"Shopkeeper Huang, aside from the sixty provinces where you sell the books of dreams, how many other provinces do you have? What was the sales volume in the previous month?”
"Other than the sixty prefectures, there are still thirty-two branches in other prefectures. Before this, the monthly sales of each prefecture were basically between three thousand to five thousand.”
"Where's Shopkeeper Chen?"
"Outside of the sixty provinces, there are still thirty branches in the other provinces. Before this, the monthly sales of the branches in the other provinces were basically between three thousand to five thousand.”
"Where's Shopkeeper Zhao?"
"There are twenty-one bookstores outside of the Wonderful Dream Bookstore. Previously, the monthly sales of the provincial branch were between two thousand and four thousand.”
As he said this, everyone gradually guessed Yun Tianqing's thoughts.
Yun Tianqing looked around and knew that they had guessed what he was thinking.
"Everyone has roughly guessed my thoughts, so I'll make it clear. I think you all know how short of manpower you have when you're selling in Chang 'an.
We have just learned how much the branch of the book store under the Wonderful Dream Book Alliance has benefited. As for how much the branch of the book store that isn't under the Wonderful Dream Book Alliance will benefit, everyone knows.
The Great Tang is very large, and the market is also very large. I can't take it, and neither can you. Even if we join forces, we can't take it. Since that was the case, there was no need to be fixated on that small profit.
Unify resources, concentrate resources, and adjust resources. It seems that the market occupied has shrunk, but compared to the state capitals with other bookstores and the state capitals with only their own bookstores, I don't think I need to explain the benefits to you in detail.”
" This..." Everyone present was not a fool. The benefits that could be brought by doing so were undoubtedly huge. They could more than double. This was the huge benefit brought by the monopoly, but at the same time, the changes and exchange of benefits were also huge.
"Since Pavilion Master has spoken, we will not be hypocritical. Just as the pavilion master said, this move will indeed allow us to better adjust and control the resources of the relevant state capitals and obtain greater benefits.
But first, how can we ensure that our interests will not be taken over?
Secondly, other than the 12 bookstores, there are other bookstores in each prefecture. How should we deal with this?
Thirdly, the reason why we are able to work together now is mainly because Pavilion Master's biographies are the most outstanding, dominating the world. However, if there are biographies comparable to Pavilion Master in the future, what will Pavilion Master do?”
In the beginning, Shopkeeper Huang's words were still respectful, but the more he spoke, the more serious his tone became, and the more oppressive he felt!
When he finished speaking, the shopkeepers of the twelve bookstores straightened their backs and looked at Yun Tianqing with solemn eyes. None of them dodged!
