Chapter 62
Deng Yuanshan's eyes widened, and he didn't move for a while. The young man smiled, pulled the young man next to him who was still nibbling on the bun and looked stunning, and stepped into the auspicious class. Deng Yuanshan hurriedly wiped the tea on his hands with a handkerchief, and then walked out of the private room.
"Do you have a ticket?" As soon as he walked to the staircase, Deng Yuanshan heard the voice of the doorman from the bottom of the stairs.
Then, a warm and clear voice came into Deng Yuanshan's ears: "This little brother, I came to find a friend I haven't seen for a long time, and I ask you to guide me the way." ”
"Who are you looking for?"
"Mr. Deng."
The world often calls Deng Yuanshan "Boss Deng", and his subordinates call him "Big Shopkeeper", and those who miss him call him "Deng Shanren", and there are not many people who call Deng Yuanshan Mr. Deng Yuanshan had already determined who was coming at this time, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
But when the man really walked up the stairs to the front, Deng Yuanshan's face was cold, and his voice was light: "I haven't heard from you for five years, but you have done a neat job." ”
Sixteen-year-old Mu Qing has faded away from his previous immaturity and looks much calmer. After listening to Deng Yuanshan's accusation, he smiled and forgive: "Mr. Deng atoned for his sins, Annu and I went to a lot of places, and the days were very tight, please forgive me for being negligent." As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed to the young man with a bookcase and bulging cheeks behind him, "But I don't miss an issue of "Wenqing Daily", it's really good, isn't it like seeing Mr. Deng." ”
"Less compliments on me." Deng Yuanshan also knew Mu Qing's temperament, so he didn't bother to take care of him.
Stretching out his arm, he hugged Mu Qing firmly. Mu Qing didn't struggle, but he was a little uncomfortable being strangled.
"If there is no news next time, tell me anyway, I will definitely spend your share of the dividend, and there will be no money left."
Mu Qing laughed, and when he heard this, he knew that Deng Yuanshan was angry, and nodded, extremely well-behaved.
Deng Yuanshan's eyes moved to Annu, this person looked much better than five years ago, and that face was amazing even now. Deng Yuanshan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and asked, "This is Annu?" ”
Mu Qing smiled, quite proud: "Yes, my family Annu is getting more and more smart, isn't it?" ”
Annu was directly blushed by this sentence, although he had known his master's temper after following Mu Qing for a long time, such a straightforward and simple praise still made his face feverish. lowered his head, silently chewed the bun in his mouth, and did not speak.
Deng Yuanshan took Mu Qing and An Nu back to the private room, and after sitting down, he whispered in Mu Qing's ear: "There is a scholar with such outstanding appearance, I am afraid that your reputation is not good." ”
Mu Qing didn't care. He knows that the scholars around the current readers, in addition to serving tea and pouring water, some will also act as small partners. But he and Annu have endured hardships and hardships together, and the relationship is that it is a master and a servant rather than a relative. Mu Qing is a male who loves men, but he has no distractions about Annu.
"The body is not afraid of the shadow, besides, our Annu is pleasing to the eye, and it's good to look at it and wash your eyes." Mu Qinghun took a sip of tea absently, and then said good tea, "Mr. Deng, you will enjoy it." ”
The wise way is to hide Annu at home now, or sell it, but Deng Yuanshan knew that he had an idea, and he had always been close to Annu, so he no longer persuaded him, and said with a smile: "If you like it, pack a few bags back." ”
Mu Qing was not polite to him, and responded with a smile.
From the private room, you can clearly see that the crowd below is full, the stage is very large, and it is brilliantly illuminated by the lights, Mu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly: "I remember that Mr. Deng still owes me a legend of the White Snake, I won't pay the ticket today, just invite me." ”
"Five years ago, a game of twenty wen, today a game of three taels, you can count." Deng Yuanshan joked with a smile.
Mu Qing accepted it indifferently, knowing how to calculate was not a bad word. He squinted his eyes and saw a big water sign next to the words on the stage, which read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Mu Qing blinked: "If I remember correctly, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was only finished a few days ago, and it was rehearsed at this time, but it was extremely fast." ”
Deng Yuanshan pinched his snacks: "I have already let them rehearse these plays, after all, there are too many people who are also staring at drama storytelling now, and if you want to make money, you must have speed," glanced at Mu Qing, "They still use your manuscript when rehearsing." ”
Mu Qing glanced at him: "Then where did you take my manuscript?" ”
"It's sold, so of course the previous items can only be sold at a good price when they are booming." Deng Yuanshan stuffed the pastry into his mouth and said slowly.
Mu Qing had already guessed that this would be the case, and muttered a sentence of "wealth fan" and turned his gaze below.
The story of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Mu Qing is very familiar with it, and he has watched a lot of TV series, and the ones on the stage are not fresh for a long time. He watched the reaction of the audience below.
Seeing Zhuge Liang using clever tricks to break the enemy army, everyone applauded, and seeing Cao Cao's victory, many people began to throw teapots.
This kind of scene made Mu Qing laugh, and Deng Yuanshan glanced at him: "But the rehearsal is not good?" ”
"No, that's good." Mu Qing said praise, but he got up and pulled up the heavy curtain in front of the private room.
The heavy curtain cut off the sound of opera outside, and the private room instantly became quiet.
Annu already likes these, and she is watching the play happily, but she is a little disappointed if she doesn't have to watch it at this time. Mu Qing touched his head and asked him to move a seat to look outside the curtain, Annu blinked, and could hear that Mu Qing wanted him to take the wind, so he nodded obediently and moved a stool to sit outside. Mu Qing also handed the whole plate of dim sum on the table to Anu for him to take out and eat, and then sat down opposite Deng Yuanshan again.
"Sooner or later, Annu's appearance will invite trouble." Deng Yuanshan's eyebrows frowned slightly, but after all, he didn't hold back the worry in his heart.
Mu Qing was smiling, with seriousness in his eyes: "Until he finds a good wife and a beautiful concubine, I won't let him out." ”
Deng Yuanshan looked at Mu Qing: "You hurt him." ”
"My Annu is already painful." Mu Qing said this, but he reached out and took the osmanthus cake that Deng Yuanshan had not yet eaten and stuffed it into his mouth.
Deng Yuanshan glared at him: "You're really welcome." ”
Mu Qing clapped his hands carefully and slapped the pastry crumbs off his hands: "Mr. Deng and I share honor and disgrace, so let's not see the outside world at this time." ”
Deng Yuanshan sang a breath and told him to be calm, and then said with a faint expression: "What do you want to say to me, say it." ”
Mu Qing took out a newspaper from his arms, and on the first page was a bright call for papers: "I have gone to find many famous artists to learn poetry and painting in the past few years, and I wanted to come back later, but looking at this, I thought, Mr. Deng is afraid that he will encounter difficulties now." ”
Deng Yuanshan smiled bitterly when he heard this, and spread out his hand: "You can guess my difficulties, and I won't hide it from you." I can deal with it if I just send more manuscripts, but most of the bias here is scolding. ”
"Scolding the reincarnation." Mu Qing took a sip of the teacup.
Deng Yuanshan was stunned: "How do you know?" Without waiting for Mu Qing to speak, Deng Yuanshan pursed the corners of his mouth, "Are you a monster that has been cultivated for thousands of years and turned into a human form?" ”
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled up as if he was smiling: "I didn't dare to say it before, but this time I'm really not guessing." The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is far from the official history, no matter how wonderful the story is, but after all, it is a romance and does not match history. Ordinary people like stories, so they naturally compete to read them, but those serious literati must scold people when they read them. ”
Deng Yuanshan was anxious when he heard this, and his voice was slightly raised: "Since you know, why do you want to publish it?" ”
Mu Qing's hand holding the tea paused, and his narrow eyes revealed doubts: "Only controversy can make the sales of "Wenqing Daily" go to a higher level, and publishing it is only harmful but beneficial." ”
"But you are a literati, a talent, and you will rise to the top in the future. Such a tarnished reputation makes the world insulted, how to go on in the future?! ”
When Mu Qing heard this, his expression softened.
Although it was five years of separation, it seemed that Mu Qing's weight in Deng Yuanshan's heart had not weakened. The profits brought by "Wenqing Daily" are self-evident, but under such a big temptation, the balance in Deng Yuanshan's heart still favors Mu Qing without hesitation, and he considers it from Mu Qing's point of view.
It was only at this moment that Mu Qing really decided in his heart that Deng Yuanshan was his ally, which was enough to make him trust.
Mu Qing's expression softened, and he reached out and patted Deng Yuanshan's arm: "Mr. Deng, don't worry, even if I use a fake name, I will make up my mind to draw a line with these scripts in the future." The voice paused, and the smile on his face became simple and kind, "Besides, the author is my friend, not me, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
Only then did Deng Yuanshan's expression ease and he didn't mention it again.
Mu Qing asked: "After you go back, even if you let people publish those scolding and compliments, don't give any comments, just post them." Let them quarrel when they quarrel, let them make trouble if they make trouble, and the more noisy we are, the more we earn. It's better to have some kind of lawsuit or something. Whichever side is weak, we will help them quarrel and help them scold, so as to make sure that the situation is evenly matched. ”
"Will it affect the confidence of those who advertise?" Deng Yuanshan was worried.
Mu Qing curled his lips and smiled: "Naturally, not only not, but there will be more and more advertisements in the future, and within a year, we will be the richest people in Guizhou." ”
Deng Yuanshan gritted his teeth, was silent for a long time, and finally made up his mind, clenched his hand into a fist and knocked it hard on the table: "Okay, fuck it." ”
"Mr. Deng, you swear." Mu Qing pointed at him, "We are cultural people, and we want to be civilized." ”
Deng Yuanbin exhaled and said with a smile: "Just have a good time." But looking at your posture, it seems that I knew early on that I would nod. ”
Mu Qing nodded, with a faint smile: "There is a great man surnamed Ma who once said that a businessman has fifty percent of the profit, so he will take risks; With 100% profits, you dare to trample on the laws of the world; With a profit of 300 percent, you dare to risk going to the gallows. Now it's just a small risk, but in exchange for a thousand times the profit, a fool won't do it. ”
"Who are you talking about?" Deng Yuanshan was a little curious.
Mu Qing raised his chin slightly, his expression was reverent, extremely solemn, and it seemed that a thousand rays of light rose behind him: "Marx." ”
The author has something to say: Grandpa Marx is not surnamed Ma, but it seems very down-to-earth to say this =v=
