Haichao Spring Tea House.

It is very close to Huangliu Hutong.

Qin Yuesheng sat by the window on the third floor in a brocade dress, looking at the scenery outside the window while eating red bean cakes.

It is a private room, without a door, but it is covered by a beaded curtain, so that people passing by outside cannot see the inside.

After a while, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the corridor outside, and with the rattling of the bead curtain, Cao Zhengchun walked in from outside.

"Young master, I have already invited the wonderful pen. ”

Qin Yuesheng turned his head to look and saw a little girl in a yellow dress standing behind Cao Zhengchun.

Seeing that she is at most fifteen or sixteen years old, she is petite, round and white, and looks cowardly.

"Invite this girl to come and sit down. ”

"Yes. Cao Zhengchun nodded, then turned to the little girl and said, "Please." ”

Seeing that the other party was sitting directly across from him, Qin Yuesheng asked curiously: "Wonderful writing, I have read all your novels, the writing is quite good, and it is easy for people to immerse themselves in it." ”

"Gong, Gongzi, my name is Huang Wei, you can call me by my name. ”

The little girl seemed to be a little scared, obviously not a stutterer, but she stammered a little when she spoke.

Qin Yuesheng didn't care, "Huang Wei, how much money can you earn a month by writing novels?"

Huang Wei immediately pinched her fingers and counted, and after a while.

"About one or two hundred taels. ”

Qin Yuesheng wondered: "Why is there only so much? Isn't your novel selling very well in Qingyang City?" ”

"The study helped me sell books, and I agreed with the bookkeeper about the money I earned from selling books, and I divided it equally, plus the government also had to collect taxes, and in the end it was one or two hundred taels. Huang Wei replied honestly.

"So be it. Qin Yuesheng knocked on the table: "I'll do a business with you, and you will write a book for me in the future, no matter how much you earn, I will give you four hundred taels of silver a month, plus two or eight accounts, of course, this must be you two and I eight." ”

Huang Wei couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Really, really?"

Four hundred taels of silver a month is a windfall for ordinary people.

"Really, but only if you write the ideas and plots I give you. Qin Yuesheng nodded.

Huang Wei suddenly hesitated.

As a writer, who doesn't want to write what they want to write, once they write what others provide for the sake of money, it is out of the box, and the article will inevitably be written with less aura.

"One more thing, as long as you're willing to work for me, I can make it impossible for your parents to gamble again. ”

This condition is like an arrow piercing Huang Wei's heart, her parents are gamblers, and she has long been a thorn in her heart, and most of the money she has earned over the years has been spent by her parents in the gambling house, which is no different from taking money to scatter the sea.

In today's world, the status of women is obviously lower than that of men, and Huang Wei, as a daughter, is not qualified to care about her parents' affairs even if she can make money.

It is natural for children to make money and spend their parents.

So don't read Huang Wei's novels over the years, they have sold very well, but she has been having a headache in private.

If Qin Yuesheng could help her solve this matter, even if Huang Wei could no longer write the novel she wanted to write, she would not hesitate to agree.

"Okay, then you have to do what you say. Huang Wei looked serious.

Hearing her promise, Qin Yuesheng took out two copies of the contract he had written in advance from his arms and handed them to the other party.

"The conditions and salary I promised you have all been written on this, what you want to do for me, there are also things on it, look at it, I think I can sign your name and press a handprint. ”

Huang Wei picked up a contract, and not long after reading it, she suddenly said in surprise: "Ten years? I'm going to write you a novel for ten years?"

"Well, what's the problem. ”

"But I'm going to marry someone in the future......"

"Marriage and work are two different things, who said that if you get married, you can't write novels anymore, and why do you marry so early?

I'll do the math for you, you can earn 4,800 taels of silver a year, and that's 48,000 taels in 10 years, with this money, what kind of man do you want?

You don't even need to get married, you can buy a house, pack a dozen little white faces, whatever you want, whatever you want, play as you like, and then find a man to look at when you've had enough, you have no reason to give up this kind of life, right?"

"Oops!" As soon as Huang Wei heard Qin Yuesheng's words, she immediately covered her face with her hands, and said embarrassedly: "This, what kind of system is this, isn't this a *baby* woman." ”

Qin Yuesheng clasped his hands on his chest, leaned on the back of the chair and stared at each other playfully.

When other women said this, Qin Yuesheng still believed it.

Huang Weiyi, a female hooligan in the literary world who made a fortune by writing a harem of women and men, usually writes this kind of plot in the book, can she still blush and be shy because of this?

"How about it, if you think it's okay, sign and press your handprint, a better tomorrow awaits you. ”

Brush Brush Brush!

In a few breaths, Huang Wei had already done everything.

Qin Yuesheng took back a contract, and left the other one for Huang Wei himself, and at the same time, he also handed a stack of fine rice paper full of words to the other party.

"Take it, this is what I want you to write, it's all trade secrets, keep it safe. Don't let others look at it, besides, the matter of your last book should be finished quickly, concentrate on my book, and I will see 120,000 words before the twenty-sixth of next month. ”

"120,000 Words ?!!!"

Huang Wei picked up the first page and browsed: "Martial Firmament? ”

"Of course it's the name of the novel, I've already framed the plot outline for you, and you can derive 120,000 words from this structure for me, you can do it. ”

"It should be fine. ”

"Remember, the selling point of this novel is for men, don't add any ambiguous moths to me, once I find out, I have to rewrite it, everything is written in the subjectivity of men. ”

"Oh, I see. ”

Qin Yuesheng threw out a silver ticket of one hundred taels: "Go get busy, this is this month's deposit, your parents love to gamble, I will help you deal with it in the near future." ”

Huang Wei got up with a stack of outlines: "Childe, I don't know your name yet?"

Qin Yuesheng picked up the teacup, looked out the window, and took a sip gently.

"The Qin family is me. ”

......

Three watches in the middle of the night.

"It's dry, watch out for candles. ”

"It's dry, watch out for candles. ”

The husband walked forward slowly, while shouting the words that had been shouted for many years in a gentle tone.

Suddenly, a black shadow rushed out of the alley not far away, and before the husband could react, a cold light appeared, and he directly crushed his throat with one claw.

"Ugh!"

Blood gushed from the wound, and the throat was ruptured, and the watchman could no longer speak.

The black shadow sniffed the body of the beater, and then took a hard bite of it, and quickly chewed it.

"It's not you, you're not him, I'm going to take revenge. ”

Throwing the watchman to the side of the road, the black shadow immediately disappeared into the night.

Following.

Qinfu Plum Blossom House.

Qin Feng, Qin Yuesheng, and Duan Hongjin sat at the round table, quietly eating breakfast on the table.

xiaolongbao, beef porridge, braised duck feet, pig ears...... There were twelve of them.

Qin Yuesheng chewed slowly and ate the porridge in the bowl, this is the rule of the Qin family, you must sit down and eat it together early.

At this moment, the chief housekeeper Qin Zheng suddenly walked in from outside the door, still holding an official notice in his hand.

"Master, last night, thirty-two families in Qingyang City were tragically wiped out, and in addition to that, three husbands died. ”

Qin Feng stopped his mouth: "There is such a thing, who did it?"

"At present, the government is still investigating, the perpetrators are extremely cruel, all of them are fatal, pinch off the neck of the victim, no one is alive, and now the notice is looking for witnesses who can provide clues. ”

Duan Hongjin couldn't help but say, "Master, I'm afraid that some Jiangyang thieves from other places have come to Qingyang City." ”

"It's not impossible, Steward Qin, you go and tell the commander of the nursing home, so that all the Qin Mansion nursing homes can cheer up during this time, and patrol the inside and outside of the Qin Mansion in shifts around the clock, and you can't relax for a moment.

In addition, remember to work in groups of three, no matter where you go, you must follow them together, and you can't leave the group without permission. ”

"Understood. ”

Qin Yuesheng looked at the notice in Qin Zheng's hand thoughtfully and did not speak.

Another day passed.

The massacre in Qingyang City continued, and with hundreds of people dying in just a few days, this immediately caused a lot of panic in Qingyang City.

Wealthy businessmen and clans can sleep at night because they have a lot of warriors in their hands and nurses, but ordinary people are not so comfortable.

Once you meet that murderer, anyone will die, and you won't be able to see the sun the next morning.

As a result, people in Qingyang City became panicked for a while, and the business of martial arts halls, blacksmith shops, and weapons shops in the city became booming.

However, the common people are worried and upset, but in fact, Xun Sheng, who is the Taishou of Qingyang City, is even more annoyed.

Someone broke the ban in his jurisdiction like this, it was completely a provocation to his status as a guard, and at the same time, what made Xun Sheng even more worried was that they still didn't know whether that murderer was a human or a ghost.

"Lord Bai, do you have any clues?"

In Bai Hao's room, Xun Sheng sat at the table and asked with a solemn face.

Bai Hao's hair was messy, and it was obviously a posture that he hadn't taken care of for a while.

"Nothing was found. Bai Hao shook his head helplessly: "There are no footprints at the scene, the wounds on the deceased's body seem to be caused by sharp claws, and few people in the Jiangnan area use claw blades as weapons, so I suspect that there is a high probability of ghouls in this crime." ”

"Ghoul!" Xun Sheng's expression changed.

Ghouls and ghosts are very dangerous, and the power of ghosts lies in the fact that they have many strange methods, the most common of which is to use illusions to confuse people, absorb people's essence, possess and control the human body, and so on.

The Seven Star Prison calls this kind of thing a ghost covering his eyes, a ghost hitting the wall, and a ghost going up.

And the tricky thing about ghouls is how brutal they are.

Every ghoul has the purpose of killing people, they have no consciousness or intelligence, and their only idea is to hunt any living thing with blood.

Where there are ghouls, the disaster of being slaughtered will occur.
