This scholar looks young and inexperienced.
So many things haven't been prepared for opening a shop.
He certainly wouldn't know how the owner and the manager split the profits.
They probably still feel that the 37% (30% of their own) is too little, so they'll give them more later.
So, Wang Qinian was about to continue talking about splitting the profits three-thirds.
Su Yu patted Wang Qinian on the shoulder.
"Brother Wang, since you are so righteous..."
"Then I, Su, cannot let Brother Wang help me for nothing."
"Although the bookstore hasn't made any money yet, I don't have the money."
"But if I make money in the future, I will give Brother Wang fifty taels every month."
"Let's leave it at that, Brother Wang, please don't refuse any longer."
"Otherwise, I, Su, will take charge of the business myself."
Wang Qinian was taken aback upon hearing this.
What I really want isn't fifty taels.
It seems this scholar truly doesn't understand the market.
But Su Yu had already said all that.
If it's a refusal, or a bargaining attempt.
Wouldn't that mean all those previous statements would be considered lies?
Scholars have always been upright and honest.
What if Su Yu directly disagrees with letting him be the manager?
Wouldn't that mean we'd get nothing at all?
Fine, fifty taels it is.
That's a considerable sum of money; you couldn't earn that much doing anything else.
Then, just when Wang Qinian had stopped thinking about profit sharing.
Su Yu then added.
"Based on the store's monthly profits, another 10% will be given to Brother Wang."
Upon hearing this, Wang Qinian suddenly raised his head, his face crinkling with smiles.
His face clearly showed the words "overjoyed"!
Unexpectedly, in addition to the fifty taels of silver per month, there was also a 10% profit to be shared.
This is a huge windfall! I'll go back and tell my wife; she'll be so happy!
Su Yu, what a good person!
Faced with Wang Qinian's gratitude, Su Yu simply smiled faintly.
From the beginning, Su Yu did not intend to give Wang Qinian only a fixed monthly salary.
For a shrewd businessman like Wang Qinian who knows how to make money, a profit-sharing arrangement is obviously better.
His monthly salary is directly linked to the store's profits, so he will work harder to be a good manager.
Furthermore, this shared interest can effectively prevent him from selling pirated books.
Of course, a 10% profit is the most that can be achieved; 20% or 30% is impossible.
Negotiation requires strategy.
First, let Wang Qinian know that he can only take fifty taels.
If you give him another 10% of the profits, he'll feel like he's made a profit.
Otherwise, no matter how much profit he receives.
In the end, when he saw how much money the store made, he would feel like he had lost out.
Su Yu looked up at the sky and realized it was getting late, so she said...
"Okay, it's settled then."
"Brother Wang, please provide me with a plan within two days."
Wang Qinian scratched his head.
"Proposal?"
Su Yu said calmly.
"It's about writing down what you plan to do."
"For example, the issues you just mentioned, such as road sections, site selection, and printing."
"And any other questions you may have."
Wang Qinian nodded.
"Okay, I'll leave it to Lao Wang."
"I'll show you the plan in two days."
"Yes, Ichishiki."
After saying that, Su Yu left gracefully.
Wang Qinian also went back to the Censorate.
Just then, Wang Qinian walked happily to the entrance of the Supervisory Council.
But then I saw the elderly man in a wheelchair at the door.
At this moment, she was calmly looking at herself, her face expressionless.
Wang Qinian was startled and took two steps back.
Then, realizing what had happened, he stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and hurriedly explained.
"Dean, what I was doing when I went out just now was..."
He frantically racked his brains for reasons to explain why he had just sneaked out to slack off.
To everyone's surprise, Chen Pingping smiled and said calmly.
"Are you going to be Su Yu's manager?"
The smile that appeared on Chen Pingping's face was chilling no matter how you looked at it.
Wang Qinian nodded with a bitter face, then shook his head.
He kept thinking to himself that he was doomed and had been caught red-handed.
Chen Pingping suddenly spoke.
"Go ahead."
Chapter Sixty-Six: Chen Pingping: Su Yu is definitely not simple! Shadow: But he doesn't know martial arts! (Please subscribe! Please subscribe to all chapters!)
Wang Qinian was stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, he was even more shocked.
Go ahead?
What do you mean?
Go to hell?
This, this, this... the dean shouldn't be that ruthless, right?
I was only out for a short while during my shift.
I accepted a job as a bookstore manager to supplement my family's income.
The manager wouldn't neglect matters within the courtyard.
It's fine to just go to the bookstore when you're off duty or on your day off.
What should we do? Should we explain this to the dean again?
Or, you could just resign from the institute.
Wait, no, the dean has something to tell me to do, so he won't let me go.
Well... if all else fails, I'll talk to Su Yu and tell her that I have to back out because of the situation.
But there was so much gleaming, shiny silver money beckoning to him!
Wang Qinian's mind was racing with these thoughts, a one-man brainstorming session.
The expression on his face at this moment.
One moment fear, the next hesitation, then pain, then...
In short, his expression was extremely complicated.
Chen Pingping frowned and looked at Wang Qinian with somewhat cloudy eyes.
"Go and become the manager of Su Yu's place."
Wang Qinian coughed twice and agreed.
"Yes, Dean."
After responding to that call...
Wang Qinian stood quietly in place.
Generally speaking, in this situation, the dean should have something else to explain.
After all, Dean Chen couldn't possibly be asking him to help Su Yu out of kindness.
They would not encourage him to take on a part-time job just because they think he needs to support his family.
After a long pause, Chen Pingping said quietly.
