Chapter 60. Temple Storm (I).

"You say, what is the purpose of what Zhang Qian has been doing during this time?"

In the study, after practicing calligraphy for two hours, Xiao Mo finally put down the short hair in his hand, and suddenly turned his head to Deng Shangquan and asked. (The full-text novel is read on the Shilu Literature Network)|/\/\|

Although it has only been more than a month since the release of "The New Solution of the Mean", Zhang Qian's great admiration for Xiao Mo and "The New Solution of the Mean" is almost a well-known thing to passers-by, even Xiao Mo, who is far away in Yunzhou, has been rumored not long ago.

A sneering smile flashed at the corner of Deng Shangquan's mouth, and he said: "I'm afraid that Zhang Qian now knows that he can no longer continue to suppress you, Young Master, so he is ready to make peace with Young Master, what he has done during this time is just to show favor to Young Master." ”

While speaking, Deng Shangquan held the brewed tea in front of Xiao Mo.

After Xiao Mo took the tea, he smiled sarcastically and asked, "Zhang Qian almost ruined my family, does he really think that I will compromise with him?" ”

"Nothing is impossible." Deng Shangquan chuckled and said: "In this world, the enemy and I can't be so clear, not to mention, in that Zhang Qian's opinion, as long as there are enough benefits, nothing can be done." ”

Xiao Mo slowly tasted Mao Feng in his mouth, and after a long time, he suddenly said: "No matter what way you look at it, I can't refuse his overtures, what do you say?" ”

Deng Shangquan knew what Xiao Mo meant, and bowed humbly and said: "Mr. Yuxian said, young master, in addition to helping Songshan Academy collect all kinds of news from the court, every qiē action can be autonomous, since the young master feels that he can't refuse, it's better not to refuse." ”

Xiao Mo nodded.

Although he has now earned enough fame and prestige with the book "The New Interpretation of the Mean", he has no real strength in his hands, and in this case, he does not want to be completely hostile to Zhang Qian, at least to maintain peace on face and give him time to accumulate strength.

Judging from Deng Shangquan's words, it seems that Songshan Academy is not ready to interfere in the relationship between him and Zhang Qian.

Then, for Xiao Mo, the trouble now is how to explain to Xiao Shenyan and the Xiao family.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the study, and at the same time, Wang Jirui's voice sounded.

"Young master, the shopkeeper Wu is here."

"Ask him to come in."

Xiao Mo said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wu Gou's mood these days is not only proud, but also quite panicked, very complicated.

He never imagined that Xiao Mo's "New Interpretation of the Mean" would sell so well, he had reprinted it three times, but it was still in short supply.

Of course, according to Xiao Mo's requirements, this set of "The New Interpretation of the Mean", neither he nor Xiao Mo took the opportunity to make any money, and only sold it at the cost price of fifteen wen, but Wu Gou did not value these, for him, because of the exclusive sale of the book "The New Interpretation of the Mean", the prestige and fame gained by the "Chongwen Bookstore" was far better than more than a thousand dollars.

Whenever he thought of this, Wu Gou always smiled from ear to ear.

But at the same time, Wu Gou was quite panicked.

After Xiao Mozhou failed to make the list, although his attitude towards Xiao Mo was not bad, he was also quite cold, and the reason why he promised Xiao Mo to print and sell "The New Solution of the Mean" in large quantities throughout Chu was more for the sake of Zhu Ruide's face.

What's more, according to Xiao Mo, the reason why Xiao Mo failed in the state exam before was because of him.

He knew very well what Xiao Mo's talent meant to a bookseller, and he even understood what kind of status Xiao Mo would gain because of the book "The New Interpretation of the Mean". He was very afraid that Xiao Mo would give him up, but he knew very well that the people who came to visit Xiao Mo in Shanxian these days were not only those literati who came to visit him, but also many big booksellers whose strength was not inferior to his.

These days, in order to please Xiao Mo, Wu Gou Zhang has collected countless gifts, including rare ancient books that are difficult to find in the world, the four treasures of the study that are worth no less than 100 yuan, and all kinds of expensive ginseng and yellow essence, sparing no expense, just to mend the relationship with Xiao Mo.

But no matter what he said, Xiao Mo reacted extremely flatly, and seemed to not care, which made him even more uneasy.

On this day, Xiao Mo suddenly called him to meet, and Wu Gou actually had a feeling of waiting for trial for a while.

After entering the room, seeing Xiao Mo's smile was still the same, and treating him quite kindly, Wu Gou's heart finally let go of a little.

"I'm busy with socializing these days, and I can't meet with Shopkeeper Wu until this time, and I ask Shopkeeper Wu to forgive me."

Xiao Mo said with a smile, on the other side, Deng Shangquan, who had frightened Wu Gou, respectfully served him tea.

These days, because of the matter of "The New Solution of the Mean", countless literati rushed to Shanxian County to ask to see Xiao Mo, originally Xiao Mo did not like these entertainment courtesies, but Xiao Mo knew very well that this was a great opportunity to enhance his network reputation, so these days in the face of those literati who came to visit, Xiao Mo was met one by one, treated people very politely, and deliberately welcomed those prestigious literati, although he was countless times more tired than when he obtained Xie Yuan, but it also made Xiao Mo initially establish his own network of contacts. This is the most important thing for Xiao Mo, who is now in urgent need of accumulating strength.

"Xiao Gongzi is polite, those guests who have come to visit you these days are all great Confucians, quite famous, naturally much more important than below, how dare I blame Xiao Gongzi for this."

Wu Gou said politely, with the different identities between each other, his title for Xiao Mo has changed from "Little Brother Xiao" to "Young Master Xiao".

Between the world, there are ups and downs, and that's what it is.

Xiao Mo sighed secretly in his heart, and then said: "This time, I invited Shopkeeper Wu to come, but I have something to ask for again, and I hope Shopkeeper Wu will not trouble me." ”

Hearing Xiao Mo's words, a hint of joy flashed in Wu Go's eyes.

Since Xiao Mo has something to tell him, it proves that Xiao Mo still hasn't given him up, and next to Xiao Mo, his family business will naturally get bigger and bigger.

"Xiao Gongzi is polite, if there is anything, please say it, it will be done in the future."

Xiao Mo smiled slightly, took out three hand-copied books from the table, handed them to Wu Gou, and said, "These three books are going to trouble the shopkeeper Wu to print and sell them on his behalf." Of course, these three books don't need to be sold at a cheap price like "The New Interpretation of the Mean", how to sell them, what price to set, Wu's shopkeeper decides independently. ”

Hearing Xiao Mo's words, Wu Gou looked at Xiao Mo incredulously, could it be that in such a short period of time, Xiao Mo wrote something similar to "The New Solution of the Mean"? And it's three books in one book?

Obviously, after the matter of "The New Interpretation of the Mean", Wu Gou thought too highly of Xiao Mo. The book "A New Interpretation of the Mean" alone made Xiao Mo spend a year of energy, how could he write three more works of the same quality in a short period of time?

However, when Wu Gou began to look at the three books in his hand, the horror and incredulity in his eyes did not decrease but increased!!
