Chapter 51 Piracy

Yingyue has been standing in front of the window for a long time.

The sky outside the window was blue and cloudless, and the red sun hung high in the sky, but Yingyue didn't feel a trace of warmth at all.

Or rather, her heart is a little cold now.

On the table behind her, there was a plate of fried rice that had never been touched, she knew who this plate of fried rice came from, and even because of this plate of fried rice, she had a little excitement in her heart just now.

But......

Looking at the two disappearing backs outside the window, she suddenly felt the urge to cry.

She didn't know how far the relationship between Fang Jiu and Qiu Xiang had developed now, but the picture of Qiu Xiang dragging Fang Jiu's arm and running around made her really uncomfortable! And it's the kind of discomfort that digs into the lungs!

She understands that she has this kind of emotion because she can't forget the vows that Fang Jiu made to her that night, and she looks forward to the story of "Cinderella" that will happen to her one day!

However, a few days have passed, and Fang Jiu has been in the Fengqi Building, but he has never taken the initiative to find her once!

She didn't know if it was because she wasn't beautiful enough, or if she wasn't as young as Akika, but she knew that if she continued like this......

All the expectations in my heart will only come to naught in the end!

"Hey!"

Sighing slightly, Ying Yue once again looked deeply at the two who were gradually disappearing at the end of her gaze, and turned to sit back in her chair.

Looking at the fried rice on the table in front of her, which was already completely cold, she couldn't help but have a wave of ripples in the depths of her eyes, and her eyes suddenly became rosy.

After a moment, she stretched out her slightly trembling little hand, picked up the chopsticks and gently pinched a small pinch on the fried rice.

The next moment.

A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but the tears could no longer be controlled, and crystal clear tears instantly flowed down her cheeks and dripped to the ground......

The other side.

Whether it was Fang Jiu or Qiu Xiang, the faces of the two of them were filled with indescribable joy at this moment, especially Qiu Xiang, whose face and ears were flushed, and her eyes were shining with excitement.

After walking a few steps, Qiu Xiang shook Fang Jiu's arm vigorously, pointed at the people in front of him and shouted excitedly: "Young Master Fang, listen...... They seem to be talking about you, too! ”

Fang Jiu smiled slightly, he didn't have to listen to it to guess what those people were talking about, it was nothing more than how wonderful "The Legend of Mortal Immortal Cultivation" was, or how much money Fengqilou made last night, he had heard too much along the way.

But......

Fang Jiu still couldn't help but prick up his ears, after all, compared to the sycophants of everyone in Fengqi Tower, the praise of passers-by sounded like it was really enjoyable, and he never got tired of hearing it!

"Little Liuzi, don't believe it, Fengqilou really earned more than three thousand taels of silver last night with "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", and now it is spread all over the streets and alleys!"

"Brother Qiao, it's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I've read the "Legend of Mortal Immortal Cultivation", the story is very ordinary, not as exciting as the rumors!"

"Have you seen it? Where have you seen it? ”

"It's sold in Houshi Lane, but it's just a little expensive......

Hearing this, Fang Jiu's heart was shocked, and the word 'piracy' instantly appeared in his mind, but in an instant, Fang Jiu's brows furrowed, although he saw a few scholars writing something when he was telling the story, but with the extremely backward engraving and printing technology of this era, even if a large number of craftsmen rushed to work day and night, it would take at least ten days and half a month to get out of the engraving of a book.

And he said that the book has only been four days now, and he does not believe that anyone has such ability.

But if you don't believe it, you don't believe it, but how harmful piracy is, Fang Jiu is clear in his heart, and he is about to prepare to print his own book, and now let piracy be so stirred up, the big momentum he finally made is likely to be greatly reduced by then.

And the most important thing is that from the conversation between the two just now, Fang Jiu realized a very serious thing, that is, the piracy that is currently appearing on the street, and its content is definitely a big problem.

You must know that the original version of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" is already very exciting, and the "Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" he talked about in Fengqi Building is even more to remove its dross and take its essence, not to mention these Xiaobai in front of him who have not had much contact with popular novels, even if those who have many years of book age in later generations read it, they will love it.

Thinking of this, Fang Jiu's face gradually became gloomy, and Qiu Xiang's face on the side was also full of anger, and he pouted and said angrily: "Master Fang, someone secretly copied your book to sell it for money, we must not spare him!" ”

"Yes!" Fang Jiu nodded, and immediately asked someone about the location of Houshi Lane, and hurried over with Qiu Xiang.

Houshi Lane, as the name suggests, is a bazaar, but Fang Jiu was in a bit of a hurry and didn't think much about the meaning of the place name, so when he hurried to the alley with Qiu Xiang, his brows instantly furrowed.

At this moment, there are too many people coming and going in the alley, and its flow of people is several times more than that of the lively Hualiu Alley.

This made Fang Jiu understand in his heart that it was basically impossible for him to meet anyone who sold pirated copies of "The Legend of Mortal Immortal Cultivators" today, after all, it was absolutely impossible to print and sell books in just a few days.

Therefore, the pirated copies that appear on the streets now must be hand-copied. And the laborious thing of copying books by hand, even if there are many people, you can't get a few copies in a day, but with the fame of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", on a street with such a dense flow of people, I am afraid that it only takes a few voices to shout a little, and it can be sold in an instant.

But......

If he didn't go in to look around, Fang Jiu was still a little unwilling in his heart.

For a moment, as Fang Jiu thought, when he was about to walk out of the back alley, he still hadn't found anyone who sold the pirated version of "The Legend of Mortal Immortal Cultivation".

In this regard, Fang Jiu was not very disappointed, but he made up his mind in his heart, he must stay here early tomorrow, and he must find out the little 'thief'.

As his thoughts turned, Fang Jiu walked out of Houshi Alley with Qiu Xiang, and at this moment, a miserable scream suddenly sounded not far ahead.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar but somewhat unfamiliar roar came into his ears: "Damn, did you eat the heart of a bear and a leopard?" Dare to play this kind of trick behind Lao Tzu's back, I think you are really impatient! ”

"Prince Wang, please spare me, I don't dare anymore!"

"Spare you? You sell Lao Tzu's books privately, do you know how much money it will cost me? Beat me, beat me to death......"
