Soon after, Nie Hongshu returned to the inner courtyard surrounded by a crowd of people.

Overnight, they seemed to be a few years older, and they looked extremely haggard, and Nie Xiaoqian and Yu'er were sad to watch.

Zeng Tiancheng and the others stayed to discuss for a while, and then got up and left.

Outside the hospital, there were two more officials.

This was sent by Qin Shou to monitor Nie Hongshu, firstly, not to allow Nie Hongshu to go out at will, and secondly, to find out which people came to visit.

As soon as the others left, Gu Ming sat down beside Nie Hongshu and asked in a low voice, "How are adults going to deal with this matter?" ”

"It's up to who's down to investigate."

"What if it's a salt carrier?"

"Even if it is a salt transport envoy, it is not so easy to convict this official based on a single piece of evidence that he does not know the so-called accusation."

Gu Ming sighed: "I hope so." ”

Having said that, if you want Yue Fei to be loyal to the country, is it not falsely accused of rebellion?

In the end, he was given death on trumped-up charges.

"By the way, isn't the study open tomorrow? Leave me alone and take care of your study. ”

"......"

Nie Hongshu smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry about this official, the study is your hard work, don't be affected by such a trivial matter."

It stands to reason that the official should have come to congratulate him in person, but the situation is ...... right now."

At this time, Nie Xiaoqian came over and said softly: "Daddy, tomorrow my daughter will accompany Gu Gongzi to go together, and I will go home to accompany you when I am done." ”

"It's okay, Daddy happens to be at home alone for a few days."

Early the next morning.

"Wenxing Study" opened as scheduled.

In the plan, just put two strings of firecrackers to mean it.

Unexpectedly, many squires came one after another to congratulate them, and the sound of firecrackers kept ringing, and the smoke shrouded half of Zhaobei Street.

Speaking of which, there is naturally Zeng Tiancheng's contribution to this.

However, Gu Ming stepped forward yesterday and said something sharp in front of Qin Shou, which also attracted many squires to have a good impression of him and took the initiative to come to congratulate him.

Including Gong Zheng, Liu Dehua and others also arrived one after another.

Fortunately, the yard is spacious, so you don't have to worry about having no place to receive it.

In the shop, He Yongliang, Dong Sheng, Yu'er, Su Ling, and a few scholars who consigned paintings and calligraphy here were all busy receiving customers or introducing paintings and calligraphy.

By the time the congratulators had left one after another, it was almost noon.

Gu Ming finally vacated his time and hurriedly walked into the store to care about the business situation.

When I asked, I couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised.

Three words: good start!

Two booksellers from other counties who were introduced by Liu Dehua bought a total of 400 copies of "The Legend of the West Chamber", with a wholesale price of 650 wen per volume.

In addition, the squires who came to congratulate had one or more books, and almost all of them bought books.

Coupled with some scattered sales, "The Legend of the West Chamber" sold a total of nearly 100 copies at a price of 800 yuan.

At the same time, more than 10 calligraphy and paintings on consignment were also sold.

All in all, the momentum is quite good.

Although many of them belong to personal relationships, Gu Ming believes that once these people go back to read the book, they will inevitably be attracted.

Under word of mouth, more people will come to buy "The Legend of the West Chamber".

For ordinary people, 800 Wen is indeed a bit of a luxury to buy a book.

But what is it for the wealthy?

After lunch, seeing that the study was not so busy, Nie Xiaoqian found Gu Ming and said, "Gu Gongzi, why don't I go back with Yu'er first." ”

"Well, just report to your father about the operation of the study, so that he can be happy too."

As soon as Nie Xiaoqian left, Su Ling walked to Gu Ming's side and sighed deliberately: "Hey, Gu Xiucai, it seems that you really don't plan to be related to Mrs. Ben?" ”

Gu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Don't always joke about this, I'm nothing, if it spreads, it will affect Yun'er's reputation." ”

"That's right. Actually, I mean, you and Miss Nie...... There's a play! ”

"What play?"

He Yongliang ran out of nowhere to fight, and asked with a salivating face.

"Go aside!"

"Hmph, cross the river and tear down the bridge!"

He Yongliang snorted dissatisfiedly and continued to go about his business.

After chatting for a while, Gu Ming looked at the few customers in the store, and said, "Why don't you help take care of it here, I'll go see Master Nie." ”

"Go ahead!"

Su Ling was also reasonable, and he agreed to it.

Not long after, Gu Ming came to the inner courtyard of the county government.

"Stop!"

Unexpectedly, the two officials standing outside actually blocked his way.

Gu Ming lowered his face and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The inner courtyard is heavy, and idlers are not allowed to trespass!"

As soon as he heard this, Gu Ming faintly guessed that it was Qin Shou who had specially greeted him and didn't let him enter alone.

If Zeng Tiancheng and other squires came, would these two officials dare to stop them at will?

Thinking about it together, he didn't bother to pay attention to the two of them, and his figure flashed and he entered the hospital.

"Hey~ You dare to trespass!"

One of the officials was furious and chased him into the courtyard.

"Do what?"

Hearing the movement, Nie Hongshu walked out of the back room.

"Lord Nie, this person trespassed into the inner courtyard, and the villain came in to arrest him."

"Presumptuous, he is a guest invited by this official!"

"This ...... Lord Nie, Lord Qin ordered that he would not be allowed to enter the hospital......"

And so it was.

"Get out! You are a little errand who entered the hospital without permission, who gave you the guts? ”

"Yes, yes, the small ones are at fault, the small ones are at fault!"

In desperation, the official could only confess his guilt and hurriedly withdrew from the courtyard.

"My lord, I'm afraid this is called Tiger Falling Pingyang being bullied by dogs."

Gu Ming smiled self-deprecatingly.

"That's it, there's no point in bothering with these little shrimps, sit down."

At this time, Nie Xiaoqian and Yu'er also walked out.

"By the way, Gu Sheng, I heard Xiaoqian say that the momentum of today's opening is quite good, it's really gratifying!"

"Hehe, thanks to everyone......"

After chatting a few words, Nie Hongshu's face turned pale: "Gu Sheng, this official has received conclusive news, and it is Shen Butong who came to investigate this time."

At present, we have set off and will arrive at the county seat tomorrow. ”

Gu Ming frowned: "So fast? ”

"It's okay to end this matter earlier, so that everyone doesn't worry about Nie."

"But my lord, this salt envoy and the dog official surnamed Qin are obviously all the way, if you really want to frame the adult, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to deal with."

After all, Gu Ming's memory is very deep, and the original owner has suffered a big loss before.

If you want to add sin, why should you do it?

"Don't worry, the official is innocent and not afraid of them splashing sewage."

"That's the reason, but ...... Let's take one step at a time. ”

That night, Gu Ming stayed and drank a few glasses of wine with Nie Hongshu before leaving.

As soon as you get home, you will be called up to the system interface to submit the task.

For the previous task, the system required that the sales volume of "The Legend of the West Chamber" should not be less than 200 copies, and the price should not be less than 400 Wen.

Now, both the quantity and the price have been exceeded.

Presumably there will be additional rewards.
