Chapter 179: Selling Books and Selling Topics, Selling Everything

Lu Chang next to "The Story of Stones" ......" was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You want to sell this book to us?" ”

Isn't this Confucius's door selling books?

Wu Jie didn't feel Wan'er, he really didn't expect that the "Dream of Red Mansions" he copied would be sold as a yellow book.

But the middle-aged man misunderstood the meaning of the two, and said with a smile: "Do you think that the name of this book looks too ordinary and not tasteful enough?" In fact, "The Story of the Stone" has another name. ”

"There's another name, isn't that weird?" Wu Jie shook his head to ask Lu Chang not to laugh, and asked curiously with a face.

The middle-aged man replied: "Indeed, I don't know what the author of this book thinks, but taking such an ordinary name is really unattractive at first glance. At the beginning, when the book was first printed, it really didn't sell. However, the booksellers in the market probably didn't think it was right, so they changed their names. ”

He took out another book from his sleeve as if he were playing a trick, much thinner and narrower than the previous "Stone Record", and the cover of the book was printed with the five big characters of "The Story of Lust and Evil".

"Hehe, this book, as soon as the name is changed, it will be sold out of stock. Nowadays, if you ask any bookstore, you will never be able to buy it. The middle-aged man laughed lustfully.

Wu Jie took a breath of cold air, the title of this book is really powerful. Lust for the sea, evil feelings, cheesy to the explosion, but there is a direct point to the hearts of the people. This name is really good, much more straightforward than "Golden Vase Plum" and "Lamp Grass Monk".

"Go, go, don't disturb grandpa's drinking." The fat man is also a fan of "The Story of the Stone", and he has always substituted himself into the role of the second master of Jinbao, how can he tolerate such a masterpiece of Wu Festival by others, and he will blast the middle-aged man out.

"Wait." Wu Jie was interested, pointed to the book "Lust for the Sea", and asked: "Why is this book so thin, how many chapters has it come out?" ”

The middle-aged man misunderstood Wu Jie's meaning, and smiled mysteriously: "Childe, the stones in the market have been recorded for the first few times, and my book will be published for the first few times, and not a single chapter will be lost." If you don't believe it, you see, two masters. ”

As he spoke, he turned to the last chapter and pointed to the index question, which was the thirty-first chapter of "Tearing the Fan and Laughing, Because the Qilin Pays the White Head and the Double Star", which happened to be the manuscript written by Wu Jieda the day before yesterday.

"So fast." Wu Jie was taken aback and hurriedly took the book.

"Wait, this son ......" The middle-aged man looked at Wu Jie pitifully.

Wu Jie came to his senses and threw a penny of silver over: "A lot of your money." "In my heart, it seems that this sober looks so familiar. By the way, this kind of person has also been seen in the underpass of the street in later generations, or in the train station and computer city. Most of them were carrying a big bag, and when they saw that you were alone, they mysteriously came up: "Dude, do you want a plate?" Wonderful, the new work of the people's artist Mr. Cang, infantry. ”

"Teacher Cang is obviously a cavalryman, right?"

...... "Xie Gongzi's reward." When he saw the money, the middle-aged man happily reached out and caught it.

Since this book doesn't fall in one chapter, why is it so thin?

Wu Jie felt strange in his heart, and turned two pages before he understood. It turns out that this is a shrunken essence edition. Delete all the irrelevant plots in the book, such as clothing, food, housing, transportation, poetry, and songs, and only keep the part of love between men and women. For example, the section where the police fantasy fairy taught Baoyu, and the section where Baoyu and the first meridian of the attacker were discovered, and they found someone to expand a lot of content. Although the pen of the knife catcher is not very good, it is full of flesh and fragrance.

Wu Jie couldn't help laughing suddenly: "This book, this book...... Who wrote this book, it's a mess? ”

Middle-aged: "So that the son knows that this book is written by Wu Jie, a famous young genius in the capital, Wu Jie, and Wu Shizhen." Wu Shizhen knows, a famous wanderer. This book was written and played by him, and was later seen by a father-in-law with a big status in the palace. As soon as I saw it, it was really well written, so I funded the engraving and published it in the world. ”

"Ahh Wu Jie was dumbfounded, before he came to Yanjing, he had thought of gaining great fame in Shilin with his talents. It's famous now, but I didn't expect it to be this way.

What is the difference between this and later generations of writers who write with their bodies?

"What's wrong?" The fat man took it and took a look, and immediately became angry, and smashed the book on the middle-aged man's head: "What a mess, such a good book, why is it so unbearable?" This was not written by Wu Shizhen. ”

The middle-aged man picked up the book from the ground without changing his face, and said with a smile: "The second master doesn't know, there are two versions of this book." "The Story of Lust and Evil" is for men, and "The Story of Stones" is the opposite. "The Story of Stones" is indeed written by Wu Shizhen, there is no doubt. As for this one, it is an abridged version. We can't just patronize to earn women's money, just find something to eat. The two masters are elegant at first glance, it is better to buy another copy of "The Story of the Stone", and it is very interesting to read the two versions side by side. ”

"Go go,, don't spoil grandpa's mood." The fat man is even angrier, and he has to reach out and push.

The middle-aged man flashed and hid to the side: "Master, don't rush me away, there is another business, I don't know if the two of you are interested." ”

", who's doing business with you, what are you?" Lu Chang sneered.

The middle-aged man suddenly smiled: "Seeing that the two masters are both scholars and famous scholars, listening to your accents, they are also from Shuntianfu, but I don't know if I want to participate in this township exam?" ”

"What does it have to do with you?" The fat man glared.

The middle-aged man suddenly took out a crown from his arms and put it on his head like a trick, and pulled out a white cloth more than a foot long from his sleeve, tore it open, and scribbled a few big characters on it with a brush: Ziwei Doushu, Zhou Yi gossip, ask for good luck.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Second master, don't you want to ask about the future?" ”

Wu Jie couldn't help laughing: This guy is really famous, he wants to make money and wants to go crazy, he will do anything.

Lu Chang was completely impatient, and couldn't stop pushing the man: "My brother is eating and drinking happily, you can have fun." But it's so obsessed, it's not boring, let's go. ”

"Childe, don't push me."

"What about pushing you, and turning you back? Master's future is very clear in his heart, what do you want to be? ”

"Since you know everything about your future, you can't stand the impermanence of the world!" The middle-aged man smiled: "Even if you are a cultivator, if you cultivate to a certain level, you will not encounter a few catastrophes." How can you survive without bringing a few magic weapons? There are a few sharp weapons on the villain, I don't know if the two sons are interested. ”

As he spoke, his voice lowered: "Do you want to take the exam?" ”

Hearing this earth-shattering sentence, Lu Chang's body trembled, and his hand was fixed in the air.

Wu Jie was also so shocked that he sat up straight, and the wine also woke up: "You book seller, where did you get this kind of thing?" ”

The middle-aged man's voice was lower: "I sell everything, as long as I can make money, even the rabbit in the moon can help you get it." ”
