"No, no, even if you say that, the money is still too much. It has already exceeded the year-end bonuses of my sister and Yujiro. Thank you very much for your respect for me. I will definitely do my best for the store next year. But I said

To be honest, I feel ashamed. Otherwise, I’d better leave the money in the store, just in case..."

"Hey, why do you say that? Do you just look down on me so much?"

"Huh? Look down on me? I... how can I?" When Ning Weimin said this suddenly, Kagawa Rinko's eyes widened.

"It's fine if you don't have it, Rinzi, just accept the money with peace of mind, otherwise I will think you are worried that I will go bankrupt."

"I didn't mean that..."

"Haha, just kidding, please have a sense of humor."

Only then did Rinko Kagawa realize that Ning Weimin was making fun of her, but before she could get angry, Ning Weimin successfully diverted the topic away.

"...Also, please don't worry about the financial situation of the store. I can tell you now that starting next year, except for the sales income of handicrafts, I will no longer take away the other operating income of the store. By then you will earn

It’s up to you to decide how to use the money. If you need to add more people, add more people. If you need to add more equipment, add more equipment. As long as you think it will be beneficial to the store’s operation, you can just go ahead and do it without asking me again. Regarding management, I

There is only one thing I want to ask of you. It may be a bit troublesome, but I hope you will help me..."

Such a solemn request could not help but be ignored by Kagawa Rinko. She became curious and asked quickly.

"What is it? So important? Please just say..."

"Well, I noticed that many customers who come to the bookstore prefer comic books. So when I returned to Tokyo this time, I also brought many sets of comic books published by China. Such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin", and "Journey to the West"

, "A Dream of Red Mansions" should be some traditional stories that are well-known in Japan. These comic books are Chinese picture books. I want to display them in a more conspicuous place in the store. They can also be regarded as a special book in the bookstore.

But at the same time, I want to know the customer's preference, so I hope you can help me record the statistical data. I want to see which kind of book is the most popular. If the customer response is good, I may contact Republic Publishing House

Negotiate, then find professionals to translate, apply for a book number, and officially publish it in Japan. As a century-old store, our Huiwentang Bookstore should have its own unique and market-oriented publications, don’t you think?"

What in this world can most move the hearts of young literary and artistic women?

It’s not romance, it’s not gold and silver jewelry, it’s not flowers and luxury cars.

The real answer is actually that a young and handsome man like Ning Weimin, rich in wealth and talent, with lofty ideals, can resonate with him in terms of hobbies and thoughts.

After Ning Weimin said this, the ice beauty Kagawa Rinko was completely moved.

There was a tremor in her heart. This tremor was the understanding between hearts, the touch of men and women, and an unconscious respect that came from instinct.

As a graduate of a prestigious national university majoring in fine arts, Kagawa Rinko not only has deep respect for Ning Weimin's efforts to promote cultural exchanges.

She was also filled with a strong desire to explore and be curious about Chinese culture, so much so that she immediately admired it excitedly.

"Is it true? I can't believe that you actually have such a plan. It's amazing!"

And asked excitedly.

"To be honest, I am also very interested in Chinese paintings. Did you actually bring back so many picture books? Are they all complete sets? Are they drawn by Chinese cartoonists?"

"Not a cartoonist, but a real painter. Those comic strips are all official members of our Artists Association, and are at least drawn by painters at the professor level of art schools. By the standards of Japanese comic books, each one is quite

For gorgeous and exquisite works from the hands of masters. I believe they will live up to your expectations."

To be honest, Ning Weimin is not bragging. Our comic strips are a special product of a special era. They are an independent cultural existence.

If we follow the capitalist system, the labor fees paid to these painters are simply sky-high.

Therefore, it has created a unique glory that has lasted for decades.

Take Liu Jiyou's "Journey to the West" as an example. It is not only vivid but also has beautiful pictures.

Especially in terms of the degree of realism and expressiveness, there is no comic book from another genre in Japan that can compare with it.

From a pure art perspective, the qualities of thoughtful artistic creation and commercial fast food culture are completely different.

This is also a very likely way to get rich that Ning Weimin, who is good at observing, discovered for domestic art practitioners.

"What, is it like this? I'm really excited. I really want to see it right away. I'm sorry... when will it be delivered to the store?"

"Are you so impatient? Haha, if that's the case, then I'll do it as soon as possible. Oh, by the way, your ticket to return to your hometown has been settled. I can get it tomorrow. I'll call the store then, if you're there

, I will send it to you together with those books. Of course, you can read those books first, and choose a few sets to take with you when you return home..."

"Thank you so much, I really don't know how to express my feelings..."

"Then don't say anything and go back to your hometown happily to celebrate the New Year..."

"Um……"

As the saying goes, add brine and tofu, and one thing will be reduced.
