Entertainment: My predecessor is a diva and my current boss is a boss

Tokyo, Aoba Josai Junior High School.

15-year-old Nakazawa Ryota held a 1000-yen bill and hurried into the comic shop diagonally opposite the school's back door.

He has no other hobbies, he doesn't play basketball, he doesn't play football, and he doesn't like to hang out with those delicate girls.

In addition to studying, Ryota Nakazawa's greatest hobby is holding comic books and not letting go.

A large part of the living expenses given by his parents allowed him to buy comic books.

This also caused Ryota Nakazawa, who is growing up, to appear thinner than his peers.

"Boss, is the latest issue of [One Piece] here?"

The owner of the comic shop is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man who is putting the comics piled up on the floor on the shelves.

He knew Ryota Nakazawa.

Every other day, the kid would come to buy a new issue of comics.

"Nakaze-kun, I think you should save the money you spent on buying comics and buy some delicious food!"

The owner kindly persuaded me.

Like all bear children in the rebellious period, Ryota Nakazawa couldn't listen to the advice of adults.

They just find it annoying to be nagged by others.

"Boss, do you have the latest issue of [One Piece]? If you don't have it here, I'll go to the one on the street and ask!"

The boss just said something casually, it would be best if Ryota Nakazawa didn't listen.

If you are really obedient and don't read comic books, I'll drink the northwest wind!
Hearing that he came back impatiently, the middle-aged boss didn't feel annoyed, and smiled and said:
"Yes, what a coincidence that you came." He picked up a comic book that still exuded the fragrance of ink:

"[One Piece] No.15, the wholesaler just sent it."

Ryo Nakazawa was overjoyed, reached out to take the comic book, and handed over the money in his hand by the way:

"Boss, here's the money!"

The middle-aged boss took the thousand-yuan bill, bowed his head and found three 100-yuan bills in his money drawer:
"Nakazawa-kun, [One Piece] is 700 yen per copy, here, here is 300 yen for you."

"The price has increased again? Didn't it only increase to 650 in the tenth period? Why did it increase by 10 after only 50 days?"

Ryota Nakazawa muttered something, venting his dissatisfaction.

"No way!" The middle-aged boss shrugged his shoulders. "When the wholesaler delivered the goods, each copy increased by 50 yuan. I also want to make money."

"Okay!" Ryota Nakazawa sighed depressingly, this "One Piece" is really good-looking, even if the price increase is reasonable.

It's just that if it rises further, one's food standard will be further reduced.

Clutching the change he got back, Ryota Nakazawa turned around and planned to leave.

"Nakazawa-kun, there is a new manga today, do you want to buy it?"

The middle-aged boss shouted behind him, as if he was not the one who just advised others to buy delicious food.

"New manga?"

Ryota Nakazawa stopped in his footsteps, turned around and asked:

"How much is a copy?"

He clenched his fist, and in his palm were the three banknotes he had recovered.

If it's too expensive, I can't afford it.

"It's not expensive," the middle-aged boss picked up a comic with a colorful cover,

"[Saint Seiya], the first issue, 350 yen a copy."

Ryota Nakazawa was immediately attracted by the cover of the comic book in the boss's hand.

In the middle of the cover is a beautiful girl holding a scepter.

Surrounding her were several warriors in beautiful battle armor.

The girl with the scepter has a majestic and indifferent expression, like a god.

Horizontal version of five deformed large artistic characters: Saint Seiya.

In the lower right corner is the author's name, and the publisher's name.

Che Tian is beautiful!
Dongying Maehara Co., Ltd. Manga Publishing Department!

Huh, it seems to be published by the same company as the [One Piece] manga in my hand.

Although he had already memorized the author and publishing company of [One Piece], Ryota Nakazawa couldn't help but look down.

Written by Norio Sakurai!
Dongying Maehara Co., Ltd. Manga Publishing Department!

Except for the author, everything else is the same.

This [Saint Seiya] should also be very good, right?
After all, the illustration on the cover looks pretty good.

Ryo Nakazawa didn't care too much about spending all the money, and he might be hungry at noon: "Boss, I don't have enough money, I only have this 300 yen!"

The middle-aged boss smiled: "Mr. Zhongze, you are my old customer, I can give you a discount, two comic books, I will charge you 1000 yen, but you can't tell others, I am the price of this price." It doesn't make money."

"Really?" Ryota Nakazawa was overjoyed:
"Boss, you are such a good person!"

The middle-aged boss handed the first issue of [Saint Seiya] to him with a smile, and of course he didn't forget to take back the 300 yen.

"Nakazawa-kun, you need to introduce more classmates to buy manga, and I can give you a discount in the next issue!"

so good?
Ryota Nakazawa nodded vigorously: "Okay boss, I will definitely!"

Holding the two comic books in his hands, Ryo Nakazawa walked back to the back door of the school too quickly.

He couldn't wait to go back now, and finished reading these two comics during his lunch break.

In the last issue of [One Piece], Norio Sakurai, the dog author, wrote that Luffy disappeared when he fell into the bathing place of Empress Yakuk.

Ryota Nakazawa has scratched his head and scratched his head for the past two days, thinking about what will happen next in many versions.

Dog author, broken chapter dog!
Ryota Nakazawa cursed in his heart!
The middle-aged boss continued to put comic books on the shelves with a smile on his face.

These children don't know what they think, they would rather not eat, but also buy comic books to read.

Ryota Nakazawa was not the first, nor will he be the last.

The boss sees many middle school students like him every day.

Thanks to them, the business of my small comic shop is so good.

The boss shook his head, dispelling the sympathy that had just emerged in his mind.

"Boss, is the new episode of [One Piece] here?"

The voice of inquiry from the door of the store brought the middle-aged boss back from his thoughts.

"Here we come, but this time the price has increased, and it costs 700 yen a copy!"

The questioners were two boys who were about the same age as Ryota Nakazawa.

"700 yen? That's okay, get us a copy!"

These two little guys are the kind with a lot of thoughts. They bought a comic book together, and each of them didn't spend much money.

Unlike Ryota Nakazawa, a silly kid who doesn't even have money left for food.

The middle-aged boss handed over the manga and took the money:

"Oh, by the way, I have a new manga [Saint Seiya] here, do you want to read it?"

Yes, of course!
Not long after, the two boys were smiling, each holding a comic book, and hurried back towards the school.

The middle-aged boss straightened up, still holding 1000 yen notes in his hand, looking at the backs of the two boys, he said with emotion:
"Children's money is really easy to cheat... Oh no, it's really easy to earn!!!"
