Chapter 30

But when the guy looked at it, he found something suspicious,

He smiled and said, "Sir, wait a minute, I'll let the shopkeeper take a look." Then he turned and went into the back room, and called out the shopkeeper.

When the shopkeeper came out, the two whispered a few words, and the two books were compared and looked around repeatedly.

I couldn't help frowning, shaking my head and sighing something.

The shopkeeper glanced at Mu Beiyuan, who was sitting on the side, and said puzzledly, "If I check well, Mr. will use rubbing technology." ”

Mu Beiyuan nodded lightly and did not speak.

Brother Jing looked clear, and said in his heart, I see, it's just opportunistic.

"As far as I know, the cost of rubbing is at least ten taels of silver per piece of paper, so don't you lose a lot?" The shopkeeper looked at the plainly dressed, but majestic man opposite, showing a rare look of confusion.

Mu Beiyuan said lightly, "You are too conformist. ”

The shopkeeper's heart was shocked, and he knew that this person must have used other rubbing methods to reduce the cost of rubbing.

"Little Er, go and fetch twelve or five quantities of silver." The shopkeeper was not verbose, and said directly, "Mr. has printed a total of 124 copies, although some means have been used, but the effect is very good, I have received all the books, a total of 24 taels and 800 texts, I will pay you 25 taels of silver directly." ”

Mu Beiyuan: "Thank you." ”

"Sir, can you do business with me again, this time I want to print a thousand copies, I don't know ......" The shopkeeper deliberately slowed down his speech and waited for Mu Beiyuan to pick it up.

Mu Beiyuan said lightly, "It's not a secret, this method was not thought up in Xia, it was just to help people run errands, if Mr. wants to cooperate again, write it down first, go back and discuss it with that person, and visit in a few days, okay?" ”

"Oh, not sir? The master next to that gentleman admires and admires! Have the opportunity to introduce me and make friends. The shopkeeper smiled.

Suddenly hearing others praise Song Ningyu, Mu Beiyuan's face rarely showed a faint smile,

His girl is so good, quirky, and likable!

The man took out the silver from the account room and walked out, glanced at the shopkeeper, and walked to Mu Beiyuan's side, "Sir, count it, a total of twenty-five taels of silver."

Mu Beiyuan took the silver, picked it up without counting it, and walked out with his legs raised.

"Hey, I said Brother Yuan, those who see it have a share, shouldn't you share my share?"

When Brother Guan saw so much silver, his eyes were straight, and he couldn't wait to go up and grab it, and when he saw Mu Beiyuan raising his leg to save him, he hurriedly shouted to the chaser behind.

The shopkeeper is the same, looking at the actions of the two people, he understands why the man said that,

There is such a relative, I don't want to contribute, but I also want silver, and I have to guard against him if I change him.

I looked down at the books one by one, the printing was so good, the good ones made people feel more like handwriting, and the handwriting was beautiful, I really hoped that he could come and talk to him about business earlier.

……

Mu Beiyuan, who went out, hurriedly went to find Song Ningyu, and he didn't appreciate this antique street at all.

He feared that her talent would kill her.

In case that boss kills chickens and takes eggs, wouldn't Song Ningyu be more than lucky? The more he thought about it, the more scared Mu Beiyuan became, at this time, why did he agree to her to act separately in the morning.

If so, early morning is the last scene of their meeting,

Then he must have slaughtered the whole town and buried her! No, let the whole town live better than die, come and atone for her sins!

The more I think about it, the more scared I become, and the faster I go......

When she came to the market quickly, Song Ningyu had already finished talking with the shopkeeper, wandering around the market and buying some fun things.

"Gardenia." Mu Beiyuan saw an ant-sized figure in the distance and spoke.

He breathed a long sigh of relief and paused, since when did that outsider actually be able to affect his emotions?

Mu Beiyuan couldn't help but laugh at himself and shook his head.

Looking at Song Ningyu, who was holding two windmills and a string of sugar gourds in the distance, many Tang people, looked left and right, looking at ease.

One moment I carried two sugar cubes from the candy shop, and a few fruits from the fruit shop at the other.

There are also pastries from the pastry shop, and even buns from the bun shop......

Almost everything she can eat, she has everything in her hand!

It's the hairpins that girls like to bring and the jewelry in the jewelry shop, and she doesn't look very interested.

Her hair was always scattered on her back, and she was grabbed from one side of her ear to the other side of her forehead, and she was sent to the ground and tied with a headband.

The hairbands of others are all multi-tied layers of bows with flowers, and when they came to her, they only chose the thinnest hairbands to tie them, not even a bow, and tied them directly and hung them on the back of their heads.

Clothes seem to prefer lighter pigments, last time those clothes, for others to choose bright colors,

The ones she chose for herself were all light colors.

Mu Beiyuan stood in place, looking at the little man in front of him who was entertaining himself with some dissatisfaction.

He had seen her for a long time, but she hadn't seen him......

"Master?" In the crowd, Song Ningyu saw the familiar figure.

Hands raised above their heads, swaying back and forth,

He ran over, shouting as he ran, "Master, this way, this way!" I'll be here again! ”

Mu Beiyuan looked at the girl who ran over, shouting stupidly while running, while running, the snacks on his body fell down, ran all the way, fell all the way,

attracted several beggars behind her to follow her and run while checking,

Some people see others running, and he also runs, and those who don't know why also run forward.

Then more and more people ran, and some people even wondered if there were robbers and bandits coming unexpectedly.

In the end, the people on the street all ran towards Mu Beiyuan!

From time to time, it came from inside, "Oops, who stepped on my osmanthus cake?" ”

"Oops, my hands! Someone stepped on me. ”

"What's going on, are there bandits robbing it?"

……

Mu Beiyuan stood at the other end of the street, pinching the bridge of his nose, and his girl's influence was also great.

At this time, Song Ningyu, who didn't know how much trouble he had caused, ran towards Mu Beiyuan excitedly, shouting as he ran, "Master, here, here!" ”

The official brother who finally came up saw that the people in the market opposite were running out as if they were running for their lives.

Dumbfounded all of a sudden, what's the situation?

After thinking about it for a while, silver is still more important than life,

gave up the idea of following Mu Beiyuan, and ran back alone......

Mu Beiyuan took a few steps, grabbed Song Ningyi's arm, carried her on his shoulder, and left this place quickly.

Having experienced the war, he knew too well that when the rioters were going in one direction,

Even if you stop, there is a great chance that you will be trampled to death,

The safest thing to do is to follow the rioting crowd, find a corner as soon as possible, and wait quietly for the rioting crowd to disperse.

Song Ningyi, who was carried on her shoulders, raised her upper body, and in addition to Mu Beiyuan's back, there was also an endless sea of people, comparable to the crowd of attractions during the May Day Golden Week.

Her confused eyes were full of question marks, and she really couldn't understand the crowd of people who were talking and laughing about all kinds of business just now.

Why are they rushing to this place in the blink of an eye......

In a corner of the corner, Mu Beiyuan put Song Ningyu down and said, "Did you hurt anything?" ”

"Why is it hurting, master?" Song Ningyu looked at him confusedly.

Mu Beiyuan looked at Song Ningyu, who was so dazed and at a loss, and inexplicably felt that she was so confused, she was so cute, she wanted to teach her a lesson, but she couldn't open her mouth all of a sudden.

"Master, the apprentice bought you a lot of delicious food, do you want to try it?" Song Ningyu said,

There was a rock sugar gourd and two sugar men on the left and right, and countless kinds of sugar balls stretched out towards Mu Beiyuan, and without exception, each of them was bitten.

"This is a disciple to honor the master? Why does everything seem to have tooth marks? Mu Beiyuan took the candy in Song Ningyu's hand and asked.

"Test the poison for you! Master rest assured, it's not poisonous, I've tried it all. Song Ningyu laughed.

"How does that taste?" There was a faint smile on the corner of Mu Beiyuan's mouth.

"Hmm...... Generally! The sugar gourd is too sour and too sweet, the others are sweet, not delicious, and if you eat too much sugar, you will get fat, I'm a little fairy, don't become a big-bellied woman! Song Ningyu said mischievously, her tone was full of a lot of coquettishness.

"Oh, you're a little fairy?" Although Mu Beiyuan's face did not change, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a hand, and there was a slight pain.

I'm even more afraid that what she said is true, and one day she will fly away, leaving him alone to face the world.

"Of course, I look so beautiful, generous, cute, and charming, not a little fairy, thinking that I am so shy of the moon, I can't look back and smile; Sinking fish and geese, defeated by me for a moment, you dare to say that I'm not a little fairy? Song Ningyu wrinkled the tip of her nose, pouted her mouth, and scolded Mu Beiyuan fiercely.

Looking at her so narcissistically, Mu Beiyuan's heart let go, it's good if she wasn't a real little fairy, and said sadly, "It turned out to be a self-styled little fairy, I'm a good kid." ”

"Why! I'm the little fairy. Song Ningyu dragged a long note from her nose, pinching her waist and glaring dissatisfiedly.

"Good! Good! My little fairy, what else did you buy for your teacher? Mu Beiyuan said.

"The master doesn't like the candy in his hand? Okay, I bought a lot of things.

This is a colored pumpkin candy, I bought a total of seven colors, enough for seven gourd babies, hey, where is the sugar?

Hehe, master, it's okay, I still have it.

I bought seven kinds of melon-flavored buns such as horn melon, loofah, cucumber, and gourd, and I also got seven gourd babies, um...... What about buns?

Hey, master, I still have,

I bought preserves in seven colors and it tasted good, sweet, that ...... What about preserves?

Wait a minute,

I also bought a lot of pastries, osmanthus cakes, rose cakes, chrysanthemum cakes...... Hey, that, this...... What about pastries?

Master......

Wait a minute......

……

Why, the bags are empty......

……

In the end, Song Ningyu drooped her head and threw out the empty bags in her hand.

Stand with one foot, kick the stone under your foot with the other,

Unhappily, he said, "Master, I really bought you a lot of delicious food, but it's just ...... I just lost it. ”

Looking at her disappointed expression, Mu Beiyuan's mood was inexplicably sweet,

"Yes, the master has seen it, a little fairy who is not self-styled bought a lot of delicious food, and sprinkled it on the ground behind her while running.

attracted a group of beggars behind them, and robbed like crazy,

In the end, it turned into a street where people all ran with a certain little fairy,

It's the first time I've seen the master of that scene, I don't know if a little fairy knows it? ”

Song Ningyi: ......

Sorry, I didn't mean to, I didn't expect this to happen......

"Haha! A certain little fairy knows that she is wrong? Mu Beiyuan felt that he didn't talk as much as he had with her in the past few days.

"Hmmm! Master, I was wrong. "When no one is around, Song Ningyu likes to call him master, and feels that the master is closer.

"However, I still have windmills, so I'll buy two and give you one." She loves windmills, not because

Mu Beiyuan also likes her to call him master, he is not afraid of being called old, but he feels that when she calls him master, she will always inadvertently drag the long note, and the scale will be dragged to the tip of her heart, and she is itchy and sweet in her heart.

"Let's go, the twenty-five taels that the apprentice just gave to the master have just gotten their hands, and the master invites you to a big meal."

"Hmm!" Song Ningyi nodded vigorously.

The two waited until the crowd dispersed and wandered side by side through the quaint streets.

……

Brother Guan was separated from Mu Beiyuan and wandered on the street alone.

I was thinking if I could meet Song Ningyu or Mu Beiyuan by chance, but I was invited to tea by the shopkeeper Qiao of the bookstore.

Shopkeeper Qiao smiled and exchanged a few words with Brother Guan'er, and when he saw that the time was almost right, he said, "Little brother of the Song family, it is your relatives who came to sell books with you today?" ”

"He? is the child husband of my family's Ernier, who owes my family a life, and is unable to repay it, so he has to pay off the debt. The corners of Brother Guan'er's mouth twitched, revealing a look of disdain.

"Oh? I saw that he was not simple, but he knew how to rub and print. A gleam flashed in Shopkeeper Joe's eyes.

Brother Guan didn't see the glint in his eyes, and said self-righteously, "He's just a dirty man, he knows fart, didn't he also say in the morning that he was running errands for people, he would find a herb or something at most." ”

"Oh, and do you know who in your family knows this technology?" Shopkeeper Joe's tone was mixed with a few expectations.

was asked like this, Brother Guan was stunned, the first thing he thought of was Ernier, there were only two people who handled it yesterday, and he couldn't think of anyone else willing to help them.

Besides, Ernier's attitude that she was so sure that it could be completed yesterday is a little unbelievable when she thinks about it now.

Could it be ...... Technology is what Ernier knows, so she just said that yesterday?

Damn, it's clear that they are a family, why don't they share their skills with him, but they are ...... to an outsider

Thinking of this, Brother Guan'er's face was a little solemn, he was not a fool, and he knew that he couldn't cheapen this white-eyed wolf for nothing.

"Well...... "Brother Guan played Tai Chi with him, "I don't know yet." ”

He rubbed his hands together pretending to be awkward, licked the corners of his lips, and continued with some embarrassment, "You can also see it today, he is guarding me. ”

Shopkeeper Qiao looked at the change in the expression on Brother Guan'er's face, frowned, and always felt that this kid should be more than unaware as he said.

But now he can't tear his face, and he lured him to open his mouth, "Little brother of the Song family, the road to this scientific expedition is still long, and there are still many places to use silver in the future, if you know this technology and are willing to share it with me, I am willing to pay two hundred taels to buy your technology, how about it?" ”

When Brother Guan heard this, two hundred taels (note: one wen in ancient times was about one yuan now, one thousand wen was equal to one tael of silver, and two hundred taels was equal to two hundred thousand now) The corners of his mouth rose, that is a huge amount of money, with this money, his future scientific research road will be much smoother.

But after thinking about it, if he learns this technique, and then prints 180,000 copies, the silver is not comparable to the mere 200 taels of silver.

But if he wants to take the road of scientific research in the future, how can he be involved too much by mundane things such as silver?

There is a house of gold in the book, is that a mere silver possible?

is struggling with Brother Guan'er whether it is better to take his money or do it himself......

Shopkeeper Qiao's hand knocked on the table a few times, and said seemingly calmly, "You know that the Qiao family is a prosperous family, and there are many clansmen who are officials all over the country, if you can ......" Shopkeeper Qiao's deliberate words were half left, and his smile was very connotative, "You understand, right?!" ”

This half-coaxing, half-threatening smiling tiger suddenly frightened the official brother, and said cowardly, "That's natural, if I am lucky enough to learn this technique, I will definitely know everything and say everything." ”

Looking at his frightened appearance, Shopkeeper Qiao nodded.

waved his hand, and asked Xiao Er to take out ten taels of silver and handed it to Brother Guan'er, "A small deposit, not a respect, please smile, no matter whether the matter succeeds or fails, the deposit does not need to be returned." ”

"I will do my best in the next place, and I would like to ask the shopkeeper for a few kind words, I am very grateful for it!" Brother Guan nodded and took the silver, and said earnestly.

"Then wait for good news?" Shopkeeper Qiao smiled gently, but he couldn't hide a sneer in the corner of his eyes.

Until the official brother came out, he didn't see the figure of Qiao's shopkeeper,

I patted my chest, breathed a long sigh of relief, and touched the shirt on my back, which was still soaked in cold sweat at this time.

With a roll of his eyes, he paid attention to Ernier.

The corners of his mouth twitched, and a sneering arc was raised, and if you look closely, that expression looks the same as the sarcastic look that Shopkeeper Qiao took away when he left just now.

But his smirk can only be aimed at a soft persimmon like Ernier.

Rubbing the ten taels of snowflake silver in his hand repeatedly, Brother Guan'er couldn't stop being happy in his heart, and no one had ever given him so much silver.

His first thought was to come to the ready-to-wear store again to buy a new set of clothes, which also made his classmates envious.

As soon as I walked to the door of the ready-to-wear store, I listened to the store guy, and greeted a person from afar.

"Girl, you're here. Come here today, the kind of material you liked last time, the boss has entered another set, come and take a look. ”

Following Xiao Er's gaze, Brother Guan saw a familiar figure in his eyes, Er Nier!
