Chapter 103: Weird
What is called good luck, the current Jia Cong is.
Someone took advantage of the situation to forcibly buy the Huiyou bookstore, but it happened to hit the muzzle of the prince of Chu, and he returned to the dust.
The new novel "The Richest Man in the World", which is planned to be published, is likely to cause an uproar, and even attract a 'dimensionality reduction blow' from the court bosses.
As a result, the prince of Chu, who had just met for a short time, patted his chest and planned to resist all the pressure and trouble for him, and the only requirement was that it must be published as soon as possible.
What else is there to say, then detonate a public opinion bomb in the capital!
When he returned to Rongguo Mansion on the same day, he was notified as soon as possible that Jia Cong didn't even have time to enjoy dinner, and came back to Rongqing Hall to meet the old lady for the second time.
"I heard that this monkey of yours knows the prince of Chu, how did you know him?"
"Old lady, my grandson pulled the startled horse of the prince of Chu on the dock, and I just met!"
"I heard that the prince of Chu gave a generous gift, did you contact you as a monkey after that?"
"Old lady, the prince of Chu has been in the Huiyou bookstore for the past two days, but I didn't expect him to be a fan of the story of the Three Kingdoms!"
"Oh, then in this way, the relationship between the prince of Chu and you, a monkey, is okay?"
"Exactly!"
One question and one answer is like interrogating a prisoner, how can there be half the warmth of a dialogue between ancestors and grandchildren?
The old lady obviously didn't care, and Jia Cong naturally didn't care about it, although the two of them were named Zusun, they were just strangers and acquaintances, but they lived in Rongguo's Mansion at the same time, nothing more.
"If the opportunity is right, I will take your second brother Bao to the bookstore and meet the prince of Chu, I believe they can talk!"
The old lady also knew that the management of the Huiyou Bookstore was in the hands of Jia Cong, so she ordered directly without any politeness.
"My grandson knows!"
Hehe, when "The Richest Man in the World" detonates public opinion, and the prince of Chu charges into battle with some salt-related parties, I hope that the old lady can continue to maintain such an idea.
After the 'interrogation' was over, the old lady had no intention of leaving Jia Cong to enjoy dinner together, Jia Cong said goodbye and left with a very good look, and returned to the main hall of the big house in the dark sky.
Nima, when the old lady was 'interrogated' just now, the eldest lady Xing, the second wife, Mrs. Wang, the second sister-in-law Wang Xifeng, Sanchun and Lin Daiyu were all on the side, so they really didn't save any face for him, the big housemate.
is ignored like this, and still wants him to be 'loyal and honest and obedient' to Rongguofu, or the old lady, is it possible?
The next day, the prince of Chu did not come to the Huiyou bookstore to disturb, and Jia Cong did not feel any loss, so he got off school early to meet the eldest master.
Presenting the manuscript of "The Richest Man in the World", I only said that the new book I wrote recently, the content of which may cause some controversy, and I want to ask the eldest man to help me palm my eyes.
Although the prince of Chu patted his chest and made a guarantee, if "The Richest Man in the World" caused a wave and he carried it on his shoulders, it would be impossible for Jia Cong to do nothing.
At least, the mansion has to prepare early and talk to the bigwigs, lest the wind and rain hit the mansion and mess up, for fear of burning himself and selling Jia Cong directly, the joke will be big.
Don't think that Rongguofu can't do such a thing!
The old lady didn't have much affection for him as a concubine, and once his new book got in the way of Rongguo Mansion, it was just a blink of an eye to be sacrificed and abandoned.
If you communicate directly with the old lady, it is estimated that you will not even have a chance. The old lady's time is spent on Jia Baoyu, and he doesn't even have a corner to stand on.
Fortunately, there is still the eldest lord who can say that the hard work of the past few years has finally paid off, and the eldest lord is quite eye-catching to him.
It's not easy......
"You kid, this book is crazy!"
Hastily flipped through the manuscript of "The Richest Man in the World", just like when the prince of Chu first read it, the eldest lord was also shocked, and his eyes swept towards Jia Cong were full of strangeness: "Can you kid save some snacks, if this book is sent out, it will definitely make a mess!" ”
"Master, I didn't suffer in Yangzhou, and I was threatened by those salt merchants, so I wanted to take revenge!"
Jia Cong was not afraid, and said with a grin: "Master, I don't know how arrogant those salt merchants are, and Yang Yan wants to make the house look good!" ”
Bang!
The eldest master slapped the table, his eyes were full of coldness, and he said in a deep voice: "This is true!" ”
"Nature is true!"
Jia Cong didn't hide it, and told the story of going to Yangzhou No. 1 Restaurant to go to the meeting alone, adding fuel and vinegar, of course, he didn't explicitly say the truth that he was going alone.
"Okay, what kind of cat or dog dares to kick their noses in the face!"
The old man was furious, slapped the manuscript in his hand and said angrily: "You kid must send this book, if you don't send it, Lao Tzu won't be able to spare you!" ”
Jia Cong was dumbfounded, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
"Master, the power of those salt merchants is intertwined, and I am worried that after the release of this book, it will cause a strong backlash from them, and there is a real possibility that the house will be affected at that time!"
Speaking of this, he paused and said with a bitter face: "I'm afraid that the old lady will be ruthless and sell me directly!" ”
"What are you talking about, boy?"
The eldest master was quite dissatisfied, but the tone and demeanor of his speech were not very firm, obviously he had no bottom in his heart, but he just didn't want to show his cowardice in front of Jia Cong.
"Let me ask you, after the release of this book, will your Uncle Lin benefit?"
Seeing that Jia Cong bowed his head and was silent, the eldest man quickly changed the topic, and said angrily: "The salt merchants in this book are all masters who eat people and don't spit out bones, and your Uncle Lin can sit in the position of patrolling the salt imperial history for so long without having an accident, which can be regarded as a lot of ability!" ”
"That's for sure!"
"In this case, if there is trouble in the house, then ask your Uncle Lin to come forward to settle it, even if the old lady is unhappy, she has to give your Uncle Lin enough face!"
Tut......
Jia Cong didn't know what to say, the eldest man was really simple, he didn't want to take any responsibility, and just pushed it clean.
Fortunately, Jia Cong really didn't expect this guy, otherwise he would not have been angry to death?
The goal has been achieved, and he didn't bother to look at the old man's face, so he left directly.
"By the way, inform the chain two, don't accidentally suffer from the pond fish!"
The old man didn't stop, and the words of the prompt sounded behind him.
"Got it, master!"
Leaving the eldest master's study, Jia Cong had doubts in his heart, Nima had not taken out his hole cards yet, it was the guarantee of the prince of Chu, why the eldest lord couldn't wait to agree, this is not like the style of the eldest lord.
Otaku have always been disinclined to be troublesome, not to mention directly provoking a strong group like Yangzhou salt merchants, and if one is not careful, he may be unlucky.
If you want to say that the eldest master doesn't know the trouble, he doesn't believe it when he kills Jia Cong.
But the old man's attitude is really a little weird, and he doesn't know what went wrong......
