But because of this, the wholesale prices they provide to bookstores are basically not very favorable, and as the upstairs said, the profits of bookstores are not high. Other publishing houses can offer very favorable discounts, and bookstores will sell books at the original price, and the profits will be higher.
However, if you have the same books, you'd better buy books from People's Literature Publishing House. If you compare two books with the same name, you will find that both translation and thesis are incomparable to the books of People's Literature Publishing House.
If you just read it once, it doesn't matter what publishing house you buy. But if you want to collect it, I still suggest buying books from People's Literature Publishing House.
I don't know anywhere else. There should be books from People's Literature Publishing House in Shanghai, Shanghai Bookstore on Fuzhou Road and Shanghai Book City.
