Chapter 029: I Can't Eat "The Story of Stones" (1 more)
PS: (There is one more chapter, around 9:30!) )
At the beginning of the heavy snow in Shangjing, the sky cleared, the sky seemed to be washed by water, and the sky was white between the sky and the earth, and the snowflakes covered the roofs, tree branches, and distant mountains...... It's like a landscape splash ink painting. It is said that "moistening the snow is a good year", the first snow presses the green buckwheat to form a layer of natural quilt, and the ice and snow melt in the spring of the next year, moisturizing the wheat seedlings, which is three points more expensive than the spring rain that is as expensive as oil.
Lin Wan'er moved and lived in a two-in, two-out courtyard, which was not big, but it was exceptionally warm, and the courtyard also reserved two rooms for Lin Hanlin and Lin Qianyi. Lin Wan'er often has a feeling of returning to the Lin family's courtyard, which has been absent for a long time, and it also makes people a little uncomfortable.
There is a large vat in the center of the yard, there is clear water in the steel, the water is clear to the bottom, and the most peculiar place is that in this cold winter, a few red carp swim and frolic gracefully. Qingzhu Niang said that this tank is called "jade tank", and the water poured into it is as warm as jade, and no matter how cold the weather is, it does not freeze.
Lin Wan'er, Dabao, Baoyu, and Yubao stretched out their heads and looked inside, amazed. Lin Wan'er couldn't help but insert her hand into the water, and it was really as Qingzhu Niang said, the water was warm.
Lin Wan'er still wanted to catch the red carp, but she was opened by Qingzhu Niang. Qingzhu Niang said: "The fish put in it are protected by the gods, and they are sacred objects, and they cannot be made. ”
Lin Wan'er withdrew her hand stupidly, and thought about it in pieces. Baoyu listened for a long time before she could hear what the eldest sister was chattering: "It's better to steam, or to fry, in fact, sweet and sour is also good." "Lin Wan'er has always been a materialist and doesn't believe in any gods.
The Lin family is in Lanzhou, and occasionally sees snowflakes falling, but they have never seen knee-deep snow, and even Lin Wan'er, who has always been afraid of the cold, put on a thick hat and ran out to build a snowman. Qingzhu Niang, Chen Xiaoxiao and Dabao are in a group, and the snowmen are exquisitely stacked and decent. Lin Wan'er, Baoyu and Yubao are in a group, and Lin Wan'er pursues a big snowman. The three of them hummed and snorted and collected snowballs everywhere, and the snowmen they built were several times larger than the group of Dabao, and the style was not very beautiful.
At this time, Lin Wan'er always had some regrets, it was a pity that she couldn't bring a camera when she crossed over. Ask the artist to draw a picture, and you will inevitably stand in the ice and snow for hours, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Zhao Gan's house often wrote some messy letters, and Lin Wan'er read them as jokes, and then burned them in a brazier, and every time she replied to the letter, there were only two simple words "read". Zhao Gan will be happy for a few days when he receives the reply, the little eunuch Yu Gui doesn't understand, what is there to be happy about being coldly replied with two words, Zhao Gan explained: "Yu Gui, you don't understand, with Lin Wan'er's character, she will not reply to you, since you reply to the letter, I will say to you again, 'I am very good, you also have to be good, eat and drink well.'" Healthy and healthy'. The last sentence was said by Zhao Qian following Lin Wan'er's appearance, and he also smiled at the orchid finger.
The first five chapters spread in Shangjing, and for a time thousands of people were empty. Lin Wan'er personally paid for the printing of more than 3,000 copies. And in the form of leaflets, they were distributed to passers-by. Although it is only five short chapters, people who want to continue reading it are eager to read it.
Lin Wan'er struck while the iron was hot and wrote five more chapters, but there was a gap in printing. None of the 18 bookstores in the capital was willing to print or publish six to ten times. On the one hand, Prime Minister Pan's son, Pan Renmei, was behind his back, and on the other hand, it was six to ten times that caused a turmoil.
Lin Wan'er is full of confidence in nature, where would she think that she would die before she became a teacher. I couldn't eat it, it was really a big joke, and I was a little annoyed in my heart, and scolded this Great Wei State for not having a person who could read or read books.
Chen Xiaoxiao held it six to ten times, and said with a slightly red face: "Sister Wan'er, of course it is a good book, but this sixth chapter is too realistic." ”
Lin Wan'er didn't understand what she meant, the fifth episode ended with Jia Baoyu sleepwalking in the too illusory realm, everyone felt that they were still unfinished, and it was natural to continue writing six to ten times.
"I see." Lin Wan'er burst out laughing, "That's what my sister meant." Lin Wan'er knew that it was the sixth time that it set off a big trend, and it also led to the most controversial place: Jia Baoyu's first taste of clouds and rain.
The national style of the Great Wei State is patriarchal, and the young master of a large family has not been equipped with a little scholar since he was a child, but a little maid, taking care of the young master's food, clothing and daily life, so the "first taste of clouds and rain" This kind of thing is basically between the young master and the personal maid, just like Lin Renzhong is always surrounded by cordyceps. Lin Wan'er did something unintentionally, she just wrote Mr. Cao silently, where did she think that she would accidentally puncture the layer of things that everyone knows but can't write on paper.
Lin Wan'er shook her head unconsciously, and said to herself: "But it's even better, the more you read it, the more you can feel the hazy beauty, how can there be no bookstore willing to print and publish, there must be something strange in it." Beckoning Qingzhu Niang to come over, Lin Wan'er said in a low voice: "Sister Qingzhu, you let Erxi go out to check and see if someone is behind the ghost." ”
It's not that Lin Wan'er doesn't want to instruct Yang Erxi personally, but Yang Erxi only listens to Qingzhu Niang, Lin Wan'er's words are like holy decrees in the Lin family brothers, but in Yang Erxi's eyes, they are straw paper, and there is no deterrent at all.
Yang Erxi was very efficient, and within a few days he figured out the reason, returned to the small courtyard, poured a few sips of tea, and said: "There is really someone behind the ghost, it is Pan Renmei, the son of the prime minister's family." The Pan family controls most of the bookstore business in Shangjing, and with just one sentence, no one dares to do business in this bookstore. ”
"Someone surnamed Pan again?" Lin Wan'er didn't know where she offended the Pan family, Pan Meimei and Pan Renmei successively calculated themselves behind their backs. Lin Wan'er suddenly missed Li Mubai who went to the Xiongnu steppe and the sword on his waist.
Qingzhu Niang is the most calm, but she is still a little helpless when she encounters this kind of tricky thing, the other party is the current prime minister, and the power is profound, which is something that ordinary people like themselves can provoke, so she said: "Wan'er, I think the matter of publishing should be slowed down first!" ”
Lin Wan'er is a bloody "female man", so she naturally wants to attack and defend, and it is not Lin Wan'er's style to retreat. Lin Wan'er leaned towards the burning stove, her face flushed, and she said: "Sister Qingzhu, this is the best time, Liu Hongda and Shen Songwen have almost expanded the market in Jinan Mansion, and with the foreshadowing, the fifth child can also do the silk business in Jinan Mansion." It won't be long before you enter Shangjing, and you need to open the market in Shangjing anyway. I didn't write casually, but I saw the opportunity, and in order to occupy the capital city, I pushed it back to Lanzhou City to stabilize the market. ”
Qingzhu Niang didn't expect it, Chen Xiaoxiao didn't expect it, everyone didn't expect it, it turned out that Lin Wan'er had thought about so many things.
Qingzhu Niang asked, "Then what should I do?" Now that the Prime Minister's Office is intervening, we have no chance of winning! ”
Lin Wan'er sighed faintly, and said with some uncertainty: "I can only gamble, let's see if His Majesty the Emperor wants to weaken the Prime Minister who has been in charge of the three provinces and six departments for many years." ”
"How is that possible?!" Qingzhu Niang shook her head, "Let's not say that the prime minister is the minister of the humerus of the imperial court, his sister is the concubine in the palace, his daughter is the princess, and the students are all over the world." In addition to the King of Xiliang, General Xiahou, and Chen Xian, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all in awe of the prime minister. ”
Prime Minister Pan Chunwei has been following His Majesty since before the Suzaku Gate Incident, and he can be described as loyal and dedicated, and has been made the first minister in the world by outsiders.
Lin Wan'er showed a shallow smile on her face, and said: "This is the reason, today's Majesty Shengming naturally knows that the way to be a king is to check and balance, and now that the prime minister is powerful, His Majesty has a weak heart, but he hasn't found the right time." All we have to do is give His Majesty this opportunity. ”
Lin Wan'er stood up, spread out her pen and ink, wrote a note, and then handed it to Yang Erxi, saying: "Erxi, please go to Jinan Mansion and hand over this note to Liu Hongda and Shen Songwen, remember to deliver it to each other in person." ”
Yang Erxi glanced at Qingzhu Niang, got the other party's consent, and the wind went out of the capital and went to Jinan Mansion.
Liu Hongda often wrote to Lin Wan'er, and Lin Wan'er also had a general understanding of the situation in Jinan Prefecture, and now Shanxi refugees have gained a foothold in Jinan Mansion and relied on solving the problem of food and clothing. Some of the refugees spontaneously formed a team of complex people, but all of them had a skill, such as carpenters and bricklayers, and began to start a business, not for large families, but for ordinary families in Jinan Province. Coupled with the help of Yin Chen and Mingli in Jinan Prefecture, the life of the Shanxi refugees is getting better and better. Corresponding to the embarrassing scene of Zhuge Zheng's group of scholars, after the completion of the "Wan'er Pavilion", Zhuge Zheng and I vowed never to set foot in Qianfoshan again.
Lin Wan'er feels that there is no hurdle in this world that cannot be overcome, and the Shanxi refugees are a good proof of this.
Since the bookstore in Shangjing will not print, Lin Wan'er will first set up her own bookstore, and then work against the Pan family. On that day, Lin Wan'er pointed out the shortcomings of the Great Wei State's governance, and only said that "agriculture is valued over business", but in fact, there is still one point that has not been clarified, that is, the rights of some people above the court of the Great Wei State are inevitably too great.
Lin Wan'er thought about how to fight with the Pan family, and then, as if Zhuge Kongming was alive, walked out of the room, stood in the courtyard, stretched out her arms, and took a deep breath, as if everything in the world was within her control. Lin Wan'er looked up at the sun, touched her stomach, and said, "It's time for lunch again, it's so good!" (To be continued......)
