Chapter Ninety-Seven: Here Comes the Wood
"Master, don't you look at me, what do your chapped lips look like? How much dust is on your body? "This young man is the carpenter's son, the Wood Dragon!
"Hehe, do you think I'm dead?"
"No, it's been more than a month, you haven't returned home, we often send people to the palace marshal's mansion to ask, Menzi's answer is the same every day, saying that you are now building firearms for the Great Song Forbidden Army! Say you're in the Arms Prison, you're on a secret mission, and you can't meet with idle people! Tell us to go back and wait, the weapon development is over, and we will naturally let you back! ”
"This bunch of crumbs! Set the secret recipe of Lao Tzu's black powder, and indeed made a weapon with a certain power, Gao Yu wanted to monopolize the credit and erase me, a little person, so he drunk me, and asked someone to take me out of the palace marshal's mansion late at night, and after killing, I was buried in a mass grave! Su Xiaocai said angrily.
Wood was taken aback and exclaimed, "Are you a ghost now?" ”
"I'm your sister......"
"You're definitely not my sister......"
"Lao Tzu is a 'stranger out of the river', without a little strange ability, how can he mix? The method of Qimen Dunjia is naturally a little better! At that time, a master cut it down with a knife, Lao Tzu borrowed the law, borrowed the method of water escape, and fled hundreds of miles away, and arrived at this boundary! ”
"I don't believe it!"
"Hehe, I know you don't believe it, brother's mystery, of course you don't believe it! Forget it! My master, how are you and Qiqi, and all of you? Didn't you suffer from the persecution of Gao Yu? ”
"All good! It's business as usual! It's that Master Huipu and Qiqi are very anxious, Master Huipu used all the relationships that we can use in the Five Elements Gate, up and down, and inquired in many ways, and in the past month, I haven't heard the slightest news from you!
Suddenly, a half-sized boy came, found Li Ji Bookstore, and took out a letter...... We only learned that the master of the abstinence was still operating in this area back then! What a coincidence you met!
That's good! I brought almost all the masters of the Five Elements Gate in Beijing to protect your car! When I arrived at Heshamiao Village, the whole village was mobilized, and everyone obeyed the old man's words and was willing to go up the mountain......
Therefore, we quickly gathered five hundred strong, eight or nine hundred old and weak women and children, so I went up the mountain to investigate, and happened to meet you coming down the mountain......" Mu probably told the ins and outs of the matter, and now he is much more articulate, perhaps he was originally articulate, but he was unwilling to speak.
"How is our business doing?"
"The bookstore has been very popular in the past month, and the new bookstore has expanded four or five, and the storyteller has raised dozens of pairs, and now with the ice-making method you talked about, it is very effective, we buy saltpeter everywhere, not only make ice in the basement, it is very convenient to drink cold cold, plus the ice of the water that dissolves saltpeter, all of which have to be carried to the bookstore to melt, so that the whole bookstore is cold, in this sultry summer, it is very pleasant, even if the rich do not listen to the book, they have to come to cool off!
Nowadays, many wealthy people in Tokyo are booking tickets for bookstores, and even though there are now four or five bookstores, they are still not satisfied, and tickets have been sold for two months!
The profit is very huge, so that Master Huipu is so busy that all the manpower of the Five Elements Gate in the capital has been invested, which is not enough at all, and the elite forces of each altar are drawn from other places, and now our people in the capital have reached several thousand! It's a pity that the Five Elements Gate is dominated by skilled craftsmen, and there are very few people who are good at business, so now she has reconciled with Qiqi's master Di Baohe, and there are some people who are good at managing on her side! She used to run a lot of shops and a caravan!
The profits are huge, of course, it has aroused the idea of the government, and now there are many people who are forcing Master Huipu to join the group! Even Cai Jing's housekeeper has found Master Huipu, Gao Yu's housekeeper has also come, and Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, Wang Fu, Yang Jian and others' housekeepers have also been found! ”
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect it to be so lively! Did my master say yes? ”
"Of course you have to agree, no one dares to offend! But it's okay, after agreeing to a few families, they are fighting with each other! These people are all celebrities around the official family, and no one wants to quit!
So, in the end, they each sent a housekeeper and an account office, and began peace talks, according to their strength in the imperial court, they divided the elements, restrained each other, and they were all right! But the most annoying thing is that the business we have set up, now there are as many as five or six companies that have mixed in dividends, and sixty percent of the profits have been shared by them! And they don't pay the cost or manpower, it's really too deceitful! ”
"Hey, that's to be expected! Otherwise, I would find it strange! This is the protection money we handed over to the bigwigs, do you think the business in the capital is so easy to do! We can get 40% of the profit, which is already good! Su Xiaocai said with a smile.
"However, even if it is forty percent, the profit is still very large! We are carpenters, and the money we earn in a lifetime is not as good as what we earn in a bookstore in a day!
Master Huipu also said that if it weren't for the bigwigs to contain the situation and the content of the storytelling, they wouldn't be able to make something fresh, so they would spare us forty percent, otherwise maybe even the bones and skin would be swallowed alive by life, and they wouldn't even be able to get one percent of the profits! Alas! What a world!
Also, Tong Guan is very interesting! Tong Guan's housekeeper actually asked Master Huipu about the opening day of Li Ji Bookstore, and said that Gao Yu couldn't let Gao Yu take the credit alone, and if he came up with the secret recipe, he would definitely show us a big credit in front of the official family!
Master Huipu thinks that this Tong Guan has hands and eyes all over the sky, of course he knows what Gao Yu has done, but the secret recipe is only known to you, so I have to tell you the truth, they heard that you haven't come back for almost a month, and the expression on your face is very complicated!
At that time, Master Huipu's face changed greatly, and after the person left, Master Huipu said, you may have been deceived, and now your situation is critical......
Then, Master Huipu inquired about your news like crazy, but I didn't expect the news to come from here!
It's so amazing that everyone is still a little skeptical, but Master Huipu still sent a master, let me bring you here! ”
"Outside of Tokyo, how is my Zhuangzi?"
"The miasma of smoke is striking iron all day long, and there seems to be no progress, even one of them has not hired tenant farmers, and seeing the smoke all day long, the government has checked a few times, stuffed some money, and temporarily passed it...... There is only one thing, the news of Marshal Zhao of the Black Tiger Xuantan to suppress evil spirits and eliminate ghosts has been released, everyone believes it, and the Liu family did not come to make trouble, it seems that the plan made by you and Master Huipu at that time was very good......"
"Where's my master?"
"Master Huipu will be suspicious of your affairs here, so I can see that he is still in Tokyo, and thinks that you are more likely to be in Tokyo City......
"Oh, then hurry up and tell them now, don't be impatient, otherwise it will be easy to arouse the suspicion of the government, especially Gao Yu!"
"After seeing you, I have already sent someone back to report the news!"
