End of December.The Legend of the Sword Emperor is in two volumes and is officially on sale.The price of this set of books is 6 yuan, and Jiao Yang contacted a number of big booksellers to supply them at a price of 55%.In fact, Xiao Bai and Jiao Yang played the role of a publishing house in this publishing and distribution.They sell the Legend of the Sword Emperor directly to the big booksellers, who then supply the smaller wholesalers, then the retailers, and finally to the readers.Therefore, the price of each set of books is 6 yuan, and Xiao Bai and Jiao Yang can only get 33 yuan.Among them, the printing cost is 15 yuan per set, and the remaining 18 yuan is the gross profit of each set of books.On New Year's Day, Jiao Yang and Xiao Bai had a conversation, saying that the Sword Emperor Legend had a mediocre performance after it was listed.Only 4,000 copies have been sold these days, so let's hope the New Year will pick up.Xiao Bai was not in a hurry, this time it was originally to test the water, and its purpose was mainly to familiarize himself with the way here.He doesn't have time to pay attention to these things now, and the final exam is going to be after New Year's Day.The bull he bragged about in front of Zhang Changfa before came to the moment when he needed to hand in the answer sheet.On the 10th of January, Xiao Bai, who had finished his last homework, breathed a sigh of relief.He felt that he had performed very well in this final exam.In fact, he doesn't care too much about the score and the so-called ranking, but he can't stand the fact that others care, his parents care, the teachers care, and even everyone around him cares.Since you have this condition, you might as well continue to maintain the image of this "scholar", and the benefits cannot be said to be none, at least you can win a certain degree of freedom for yourself.For example, in the third year of high school, after the final exam, there are 10 days of classes starting from the 12th.This is to catch up with the review progress, after all, there is still half a year to go, and everyone is about to walk into the examination room of the college entrance examination.Xiao Bai was an exception, he still used the excuse of going back to Star City to ask the head teacher Zhang Changfa for leave.This year's New Year is at the end of January, and the 28th is Chinese New Year's Eve.If he waits until the end of the make-up class on the 22nd, some things will not be done in time.Zhang Changfa did not stop Xiao Bai, this time in the final exam, this kid is still the first in the whole grade, and there is a gap of more than 30 points in the second place.He thinks that it is better for students like this to be free-range, and the grades speak for themselves.On the morning of the 12th, Xiao Bai got up and went outside for breakfast, and then came to Huangni Street to find Jiao Yang.He returned to Star City yesterday evening, and felt a little tired after a nearly six-hour bus ride, so he didn't bother to go out and have a good night's rest.There was a light rain in the sky, and Shonan Province was wet and cold in this season, but the merchants who came to buy goods on Huangni Street were crowded with people."
Little cousin, I haven't seen you for a long time.Go sit inside, your cousin will be back soon. ”Walking into Jiaoyang's shop, Lin Fang enthusiastically pulled Xiao Bai into the back room.While making tea, she told Xiao Bai Jiaoyang's whereabouts."
Cousin is so diligent now?
I remember the last time I visited, he slept in the house during the day. ”Xiao Bai actually knows that Jiao Yang is very busy now, and the business of wall calendars, New Year paintings, and couplets has reached the most prosperous stage of the year, and this year he has to add the legend of the Sword Emperor published by the two together.He has nothing to say, so he can't just sit still, right?
When Lin Fang heard him say this, he couldn't help laughing: "Sure enough, it's two brothers, it seems that you still know your cousin quite well."
But now he can't be lazy, and there's a whole bunch of things going on behind his ass. ”As he was talking, Jiao Yang walked in from outside."
Little cousin, have you arrived?
It just so happens that I have something to look for you. ”Jiao Yang knew that Xiao Bai would go to Star City in the next few days, and when he went to deliver the goods, the bus driver Zhang Liyong brought him a message.But he didn't know the exact time, so he started waiting for it yesterday."
I arrived last night, and I didn't look for you because it was late.Cousin, are you looking for me in a hurry?
”Xiao Bai took a sip of hot tea and felt that his body warmed up a lot, so he asked with a smile."
My little cousin, you're such a slow character.I'm anxious to discuss things with you, but you came back and didn't show up to gossip, our books started last week, and for some reason they suddenly became easy to sell, no, there are less than 3,000 sets of 20,000 books left.I wondered, should we hurry up and ask Manager Zheng to print some?
Take advantage of the good market to print another 30,000 sets. ”In fact, Jiao Yang was also very confused, this legend of the Sword Emperor, opened low and went high, and the sales performance far exceeded his expectations.Xiao Bai is not very surprised, although this book has congenital defects, but after he personally changed the outline and revised it by Wei Feng, it actually has all the elements of a bestseller: hot-blooded, exciting, plot twists and turns, cool points and constantly embellished with some overly male and female character interactions, charming scenery, a bloody but imaginative cool, quickly accepted by current readers."
Okay, I'm okay.However, Manager Zheng may not agree to continue to advance the printing, or should we pay someone part of the previous printing fee first?
”Xiao Bai's idea coincides with Jiao Yang.It doesn't work to ask the horses to run well and to ask the horses not to eat grass.Jiao Yang was not verbose, and immediately took out the account book and began to settle accounts with Xiao Bai.Regardless of odds, 170,000 sets of books have been sold so far, with a total payment of 33 yuan per book, and a total of 5.61 million yuan has been returned.In fact, the funds returned are slightly more, but today the two of them are not detailed accounts, and that part can be included in future sales.At present, the two owe Zheng Ziming a total of 30,000 yuan in printing fees, and the printing fee for each set of books is 15 yuan, a total of 20,000 sets, and Jiao Yang has paid a total of 9,635 yuan for the purchase number, procedures and freight expenses.Excluding these costs, it is what the two of them earned during this time: a total of 16,465 yuan in cash, plus 3,000 sets of books.Of course, the revision fee paid by Xiao Bai to Wei Feng, as well as the manuscript buyout fee paid to honest children in the future, are not included in the common costs of both parties, and Xiao Bai needs to bear them by himself.Similarly, Jiaoyang's expenses on issuance and sales will not be taken into account."
So be it, little cousin.I immediately remitted the 30,000 yuan owed to Manager Zheng, and then I took out the 9,000 yuan I advanced, and we shared the rest?
”Jiao Yang understands that when doing business together, he is most afraid that things in money will not be clear, and his brothers will settle accounts, so that this kind of cooperation can be long-term."
I agree!
Let's transfer the fraction of 465 yuan in cash to the next settlement, 16,000 yuan, we will take half of each person, and each person will take 8,000 yuan. ”There is no need to replenish liquidity for this kind of business, and the remaining 3,000 sets of books continue to be sold anyway, and the funds will come in every day.Xiao Bai simply made the first distribution with Jiao Yang."
Little cousin, to be serious, it's a pity that you don't go to finance.Look at your accounting, it's clear and clear, I like it!
Ah Fang, you go to the bank, send 30,000 yuan to Manager Zheng, and remember to bring 8,000 yuan in cash back when you come back" Jiao Yang felt that the little cousin was born to do business, and this business seemed to be everyone's cooperation on the surface, but there was only one soul in it, and that was Xiao Bai.While making fun of Xiao Bai in his mouth, he arranged everything for Lin Fang.
