Chapter 238: A Quilt
Tang Yaoyao said that he would move out, and in the afternoon he packed up his things and moved into the house next door.
The layout of the two houses is similar, the decoration is similar, and the house she bought has already been completed, but Tang Fairy doesn't want to trouble some maids again, and he doesn't want to live in a big mansion alone, so he has been living here.
When Tang Ning helped her move things, she saw that the shopkeeper Xu was following behind the rich man Tang, and there were already many maids in the house who were already busy.
In Lingzhou, the two of them were neighbors, and now in Jingshi, they are still neighbors.
That's fate.
As the saying goes, far water can't quench the thirst of the near, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, neighbors should love and help each other, although Tang Fairy is not a friendly and loving neighbor, but for her loveliness, it can be regarded as a good neighbor.
Tang Ji walked around the house and nodded, "This place is not bad." ”
Shopkeeper Xu said with a smile: "The place chosen by Miss is naturally good." ”
Tang Ji retracted his gaze, looked at him, frowned, and said, "Lao Xu, what did I tell you in the letter, I asked you to stare at her a little, and that's how you helped me keep an eye on it?" ”
The shopkeeper Xu had a difficult face and said: "Shopkeeper, when I received your letter, Miss She had already moved out of the Red Sleeve Pavilion, and there was nothing I could do about ......." ”
"Forget it!" Tang Ji waved his hand and said, "She really earned so much silver in such a short period of time?" ”
Shopkeeper Xu nodded and said: "I have also heard about this matter, there should be no fake, Tang Gongzi first won the provincial yuan, and then won the champion, this odds are very high, bet twice in a row, earn dozens of times, it is not difficult." ”
Tang Ji blackened his face and said angrily: "This stinky boy! ”
The control of her daughter's pocket money is the ultimate means to make her obedient, and it is also the most effective means, and now she has a net worth of one million taels, whether it is in Lingzhou or in Beijing, she has her own industry, and I am afraid that she will no longer be able to threaten her with silver in the future.
Thinking of this, he became angry, waved his sleeves, watched Tang Yaoyao move things to a courtyard, looked around, and suddenly asked, "...... next door?"
Shopkeeper Xu said: "Next door is Tang Gongzi's house." ”
Tang Ji recalled carefully, according to the topography and layout of the two houses, this courtyard is next to it, isn't it the kid's back house?
"No way!" Tang Ji strode in and said, "I live in this courtyard, and you go to live on the other side." ”
"I'm not going!" Tang Yaoyao tilted his head and said, "I've packed up all my things, and I don't want to clean them up again." ”
Tang Ji wanted to say something more, but she pushed him out.
"I'm going to sleep, call me again when you're eating." Tang Yaoyao said a word, and closed the door directly.
She walked back to her room, thinking of the father-daughter conversation in the room just now, the expression on her face was a little embarrassed, and after the shame, she became dazed.
Xiu'er looked at her and asked curiously, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
She covered her head with a quilt, lay on the bed, and said, "Don't bother me, let me sleep for a while......"
Outside the courtyard, Shopkeeper Xu looked at the rich man Tang and asked, "Shopkeeper, you brought so many people to Beijing this time, don't you plan to go back?" ”
Tang Ji sighed and said, "Who let me give birth to such a good daughter......
……
What Tang Ning and Xiao Jue said, there was a response the next day.
Although there is a saying that "officials do not compete with the people for profit", how many officials and magnates in Beijing are really not involved in business?
It's nothing more than a few more detours and handing over your own property to a housekeeper or relatives to take care of.
Liu Jun followed Xiao Jue as soon as he came in, and he couldn't help but say: "Brother Tang, if you want to talk about making money, you are the best, what do you say, we will do it!" ”
Mu Yu also regretted it, and said: "When the imperial examination was in the beginning, if we were willing to follow you to buy it, we would have no worries about spending the silver now!" ”
The Liu family, the Huang family and the Mu family, all of whom were the sunset families of Jingshi, were once prominent, but with the decline of the family, their influence was not the same as in the past.
Of course, even if it declines, the wealthy family is also a wealthy family, and it still has a deep heritage, but Liu Jun and others are just the children of the younger generation of the family, and the regular money on weekdays is naturally astronomical compared with ordinary people, but if it is compared with a rich generation like Tang Yaoyao, it is more shabby than beggars.
Their little pocket money is far from enough for them to spend on weekdays.
Tang Ning said with a smile: "Xiao Jue should have already told you about the specific things, right?" ”
Liu Jun nodded and said: "He has already made it very clear, we all listen to Brother Tang in this matter, I should be able to take out a thousand taels, that is, eat a few less meals of wine and sleep a few girls in these two months." ”
Huang Yulong thought for a while and said, "I can also take out a thousand taels." ”
Mu Yu smiled and said, "Then I'll give a thousand taels too." ”
"That guy Gu Bai is not here, I will promise to come down for him first, and he will also pay a thousand taels." Xiao Jue looked at Tang Ning and said, "I'll give five thousand taels." ”
During the provincial test, Xiao Juehao gambled, and his current net worth is naturally not comparable to Liu Jun, and Tang Ning has not yet made a bank, so he already has nearly 10,000 taels of start-up capital.
Even if you open a big bookstore in the East Market, you can't use so much silver, but there is always no harm in having more silver, and with enough silver, you can build a bigger workshop, hire more craftsmen, and the speed of typesetting and printing will be greatly accelerated.
The matter of the distribution was arranged by Tangning the next day.
In order to open the bookstore in the shortest possible time, Tang Yaoyao's method is worth learning from, simply and rudely buy a few adjacent shops, and then open them up, renovate them, and hang the Tang Renzhai brand.
With the influence of Tang Renzhai in the bookstore circle now, it doesn't even need too much early publicity, and the three words "Tang Renzhai" are the biggest golden signboards.
Of course, if the publicity is done well, silver is indispensable, and if you want to play the fame of the Dongcheng District of Tangrenzhai, you still need to have something different.
The sales of the bookstore show that in addition to romance stories such as "The Legend of the West Chamber" and "The Peony Pavilion", books with strong mystical colors are also extremely popular, and "The Palace of Eternal Life" is the best-selling book recently.
Judging from the trend, the preferences of these daughters of Jingshi seem to be changing from classical romance to fairy romance.
To have love, family affection, and unbridled imagination, it is best to have something to do with fairy magic and the like......
"The Legend of the White Lady" has already been written, and "Baolian Lantern" is being revised, and when the time comes, he will not only earn tears, but also silver......
He has already let Xiaoru and Xiaoyi see it, the two girls were so moved that they couldn't stop their tears, and the result was that he didn't even go up to anyone's bed last night, and slept alone in the study.
Before it was published, he had to show it to Tang Yaoyao, after all, in addition to him as the boss, there was also Tang Xiaoyao, the proprietress of the bookstore, and she had the right to know anything in the bookstore.
I don't know if Tang Caishen is not at home, Tang Ning found out when he was in Lingzhou, Tang Xiaoxiao's father doesn't seem to be very kind to him, and I don't know why.
He didn't want to do something that touched his head, so he thought about it, took the manuscript, and easily climbed over the courtyard wall.
"Yikes!" The little girl Xiu'er standing in the courtyard was startled, and after seeing that the person who fell from the sky was him, she patted her chest and put her heart at ease.
Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "Are you at home?" ”
Xiu'er shook her head and said, "Miss said that if you come, she will say that she is not there." ”
Tang Ning glanced at Tang Yaoyao's room, he didn't know what she was sulking again, he didn't want to see him, he put the manuscript in his hand on the table, and said, "You just remember to give this to her, I'll go." ”
With that, he climbed over the courtyard wall again.
Judging from the fluency of circumventing the wall, Tang Ning felt that his martial arts progress during this period was very obvious.
In the afternoon, when he was in the study to revise "Baolian Lantern", Tang Yaoyao walked in from outside, put the manuscript on the table, his eyes were a little red and swollen, and he was dissatisfied: "Why do you always write these things that make girls cry......"
It turns out that only by making these daughters of Jingshi shed tears can they earn their silver.
However, Tang Ning didn't plan to talk to Tang Xiaoyao now, who asked her to pretend that she wasn't there in the morning.
Who is not a little princess, who does not have a little temper?
He didn't even raise his head, didn't look at her, and continued to revise the draft.
Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked, "Are you dumb?" ”
Tang Ning glanced at her this time, but still didn't speak.
Tang Yaoyao looked at him and said angrily: "Okay, don't speak, don't say anything, don't say anything if you have the ability!" ”
Tang Ning instinctively felt that Tang Fairy's mood was not quite right in the past two days, although she was a little inexplicable before, she had never had such an unreasonable situation.
At this time, you can't be angry with her.
He glanced at Tang Yaoyao and said, "Whatever you think, anyway, I don't think we mortals are worthy of talking to a fairy like you......"
Tang Yaoyao was stunned, lowered his head and asked, "Are you angry with me for not seeing you in the morning?" ”
Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "Why didn't you see me in the morning?" ”
Tang Yaoyao looked at him for a long time, then suddenly grabbed his shoulders and said, "Tang Ningning, you remember, we are good sisters for life!" ”
"Who's got a quilt with you!" Tang Ning pushed her away in disgust and said, "I still think you are drooling when you sleep!" ”
……
Tang Ji and Zhong Mingli walked into the courtyard and said, "I have already restrained the young, and you also restrain your aunt......"
Zhong Mingli looked at him: "Restraint is dying, will she listen to you?" ”
"I'm her father, she dares not to listen to me!" The rich man Tang looked at him, waved his sleeves, and said, "That kid is in the room, I'll discuss something with him." ”
He strode into the room.
In the study, Tang Yaoyao pressed Tang Ning on the bed, rode on him, and said angrily: "Dare to say that I drool when I sleep, believe it or not, I beat you and drool!" ”
