"How can this be!"

"Did they come to the rescue?"

"Oh, I'm dying, why is there no story behind it?"

……

Shopkeeper Peng stood outside a door, listened to the sound coming from inside, and strode in.

When a woman saw him come in, she immediately asked, "Dad, what about the manuscript behind "The Legend of the West Chamber"?" ”

Shopkeeper Peng looked at her, shook his head and said, "That person only sent the first article, and I didn't have the one behind." ”

The woman was a little disappointed and said, "If he sends a follow-up, Daddy must tell me immediately." ”

Shopkeeper Peng looked at his daughter, wife, and several maids in the family, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, is this "The Story of the West Chamber" really so good?

He has read it all just now, and one of the manuscripts he received today is worth publishing, as for the final result, he has to think about it again, and this "The Legend of the West Chamber" seems to be just an ordinary love story between men and women, there is nothing brilliant about it, but if it is not brilliant, how can he attract all the women in his family?

He has been in the book printing business for many years, and his vision has long been cultivated, otherwise it would be impossible to accumulate today's family foundation, but he does not deny that he himself has a time to look away.

He looked at the expressions of his daughter and several maids, and secretly doubted in his heart, could it be that this book is the type that women like?

If that's the case, it's great, since ancient times, women are the most losers, if you can catch their hearts, are you afraid that the printed books won't sell?

Just looking at the first article, it didn't make him make up his mind, he hurried to the bookstore, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked: "Does the author of "The Legend of the West Chamber" have a place to stay?" ”

The guy was stunned, handed over a thick booklet, and said, "It's all here." ”

Shopkeeper Peng opened the booklet, turned to the latest page, and after carefully searching, the expression on his face was a little disappointed.

Everyone left their names and addresses, but the author of "The Legend of the West Chamber" did not, which means that they can only wait for him to come to the door next time.

If during this time, other bookstores reached a cooperation with him, wouldn't they lose an opportunity to make money in vain?

Shopkeeper Peng was a little anxious, but he could only say helplessly: "If he appears again, you must leave him behind and send someone to inform me!" ”

……

Through the observation of Tang Fairy in the past few days, Tang Ning understood a truth, no matter how high her martial arts are, she is first and foremost a woman, and it is equally effective to deal with her by using the same means to deal with ordinary women.

There is no Korean drama to let her pass the time, so let her watch romance.

It's not that the domineering president of later generations fell in love with me, but the lingering love story of young men and women in this era, which made her immersed in the world and couldn't extricate herself......

Tang Fairy looked at him with his hands on his chest: "What are you laughing at again?" ”

Tang Ning immediately came back to his senses and asked, "Where did you just go?" ”

Tang Xiaoyao reminded: "Speaking of Liu Mengmei's ...... to go to Beijing to take the exam"

Tang Ning nodded and said: "Liu Mengmei went to Beijing to take the exam, Du Liniang followed him, and the two of them were in love in Beijing, like glue......

"The Peony Pavilion" and "The Legend of the West Chamber", both of which are two of the four major classical dramas in China, are both popular and well-known, and also have challenges to feudal science.

Tang Xiaoyao sometimes listened attentively, and sometimes lowered his head and whispered.

"The Legend of the West Chamber" tells the story of a poor scholar who climbed over the wall to steal a young lady, and in "The Peony Pavilion", a man went to Beijing to catch the exam, a woman accompanied him, and Lang was a concubine.

These stories all sound a little familiar......

……

Xiaoyi and they will soon come to Beijing, and Tang Ning writes manuscripts every day in addition to telling stories to Tang goblins, and it is ten days in a blink of an eye.

In the past ten days, Su Mei has been here twice, each time she came in a hurry and left in a hurry, and she didn't know what she was busy with every day, and she looked very tired.

After the Tang goblin came, Li Tianlan changed from coming every day to once every two or three days, and the time spent each time was very short, Tang Ning only heard her mention two sentences, the envoys of Chu State were discussing something with Chen State, and they started it a year ago, and they have not reached an agreement until now.

As for the woman named Tang Shui, he didn't see it once.

It was not until today that he finished writing "The Story of the West Chamber" and "The Peony Pavilion", and checked and revised it from beginning to end.

Remembering the manuscript he had submitted, he changed into that cloak and walked out through the back door of the Red Sleeve Pavilion.

West City, Songzhu Zhai.

Shopkeeper Peng sat on a chair, sometimes glancing in the direction of the door, looking for it, and there was anxiety in his eyes.

It's been ten days, and it's been ten days since that man submitted the manuscript of "The Legend of the West Chamber" here.

In the past ten days, he asked his daughter to share the story with several close friends, but he didn't expect to get unanimous praise, his daughter had to urge him several times a day, and he was also very anxious, but that person seemed to have disappeared, if it weren't for the fact that "The Legend of the West Chamber" did not appear on the market, the last glimmer of hope in his heart would have been dashed long ago.

At the door, a cloaked figure walked in.

This is the fifth bookstore that Downing has entered, and the first four have made it clear that the story of "The Legend of the West Chamber" is not attractive, let him find another place, if this one also has the same answer, he will have to think of other ways.

Seeing him walk in, Songzhuzhai's guy jumped up from his chair and said loudly: "The shopkeeper is him!" ”

Shopkeeper Peng was shocked, and immediately walked out, walked in front of Tang Ning, and said in a low voice: "The Legend of the West Chamber is written by Your Excellency? ”

Tang Ning looked at the shopkeeper and nodded, "It's me." ”

"You may be seated!" Shopkeeper Peng immediately stretched out his hand, turned his head to the guy and said, "Good tea!" ”

After the tea was served, he looked at Tang Ning and asked with a smile, "I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" ”

"Li Qing." A hoarse voice came from inside the cloak.

Tang Ning thought about it carefully, if the trumpet used Wang Shifu, who wrote "The Legend of the West Chamber", it would have to be used forever, and then "The Peony Pavilion" would have to be written by Wang Shifu, and "The Palace of Eternal Life" would also have to be written by Wang Shifu, so that Tang Xianzu and Hong Sheng might fight with Wang Shifu over copyright issues below.

I've already copied other people's books, so don't cause other trouble to others.

Shopkeeper Peng looked under the cloak with some curiosity, but he still didn't see the face of the person opposite, he put away his curiosity, and said with a smile: "I have already read the "Legend of the West Chamber" written by Your Excellency, the story is okay, I don't know how many volumes there are in this "Legend of the West Chamber?" ”

If the previous one was counted as one volume, Tang Ning estimated it in his heart and said, "Twenty volumes." ”

"Twenty volumes?" Shopkeeper Peng's eyes lit up, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Tang Ning and said with a smile: "Submit this "Legend of the West Chamber" to our store for printing, and for each volume, I will pay Gongzi ten taels of silver as a polishing pen, how about it?" ”

Without waiting for Tang Ning to answer, Shopkeeper Peng looked at him and said, "Presumably, Gongzi also knows the market of this industry very well, and ten taels of silver is already a very high price." ”

Tang Ning had already understood the market before submitting the article.

Shopkeeper Peng said well, ten taels of silver is indeed not a little, a roll of ten taels of silver, in the entire industry, is also considered to be a medium to upper price, most people, can only get a pitiful amount of money, just mix food and clothing.

It's just that ten taels of silver is not a small amount for ordinary people, but for him, it is of no great use.

Ten taels of silver can't even buy a pearl of Zhu Hai on the head of the Tang goblin, and in Beijing, he can only afford to buy a thatched house in a big mansion.

""The Legend of the West Chamber" can be handed over to you for exclusive printing, and it will be sold for a profit, and I will be six and you will be four." An unmistakable voice came from under the cloak.

"What?"

Shopkeeper Peng stood up directly from the chair, he thought that for the poor scholar in front of him who didn't even dare to show his true face, ten taels of silver would already make him grateful to himself.

I didn't expect him to be such a lion with a big mouth, a profit from sales, and sixty percent when he opened his mouth, when his surname Peng was a fool?
