Chapter 115: Crazy call for General Jing
Jing Lan frowned slightly, and was about to get up to stop Zhang Luo'er, but Yuan Qilu grabbed her first.
The two men glanced at each other and exchanged a tacit look, knowing that the deepest thoughts in their hearts were the same: Zhang Luo'er killed herself, the key was that it would not work if she was on An Ge's head.
Yuan Qilu pulled Zhang Luo'er to prevent her from messing around, looked at her with a cold face, and made Zhang Luo'er nervous and scared, she was ready to cry, but she was pressed down alive.
Jing Lan also said coldly: "If you want to die, go back to your mansion and crash into it, die here with me, are you trying to curse me?" ”
Zhang Luo'er was pretending to be pitiful and sympathetic, but she didn't dare to have such an idea at all, so she immediately knelt down again with a "poof" and cried: "General Jing, Luo'er doesn't dare to have such a thought......
Jing Lan wanted to say something, but at this time, Steward Cao came in, glanced at Zhang Luo'er who was crying on the ground, and said to Jing Lan with a smile: "Master, the guest room prepared for Miss Zhang is ready, and the old slave will take Miss Zhang down." ”
Jing Lan didn't want to say anything to her, and nodded.
Steward Cao went over and helped Zhang Luo'er again, Zhang Luo'er glanced at Jing Lan softly, and saw that he was so angry that he hadn't driven himself away, so he must have some good feelings for himself.
Then don't be afraid, if you live here for a long time, you will always have a chance to get his heart.
Zhang Luo'er sniffed, obediently followed behind Steward Cao, and glared at An Ge without moving, before walking out.
Steward Cao took Zhang Luo'er all the way to a guest room farthest away from Jinglan's courtyard, stopped at the gate of the courtyard, with a decent smile on his face, and said: "Miss Zhang, you will live in this courtyard for the past few days, the courtyard is equipped with maids, if Miss Zhang needs anything, just tell them to be." ”
Zhang Luo'er nodded, and said very politely: "Thank you, Steward Cao." ”
Steward Cao shook his head and said no thanks, then was silent for a moment, and then hesitated to speak: "Miss Zhang, although the old slave doesn't know what happened just now, but our general is a person who can see everything thoroughly...... I can't even see through some deceptive tricks. ”
Zhang Luo'er was stunned, and only after a while did she ask, "Steward Cao, what do you want to say to me?" ”
"I want to tell Miss Zhang, don't think that our general is young, so he plays tricks in front of my general, otherwise he ......will be like that" Steward Cao's always kind face was relieved a lot at this time, and said to Zhang Luo'er a little coldly, "The old slave went in to relieve Miss Zhang, purely because he was afraid that the general and the mansion would have a disagreement, after all, the general is an official in the court, and peace is precious." But our general's mansion is not unworthy of offending, at least your mansion is not afraid. If Miss Zhang has another incident, it is estimated that the old slave will not be able to get out of the siege. ”
After saying these words, Steward Cao regained his previous amiability and left here with a smile.
Zhang Luo'er stood in place for a long time and did not move, snorting angrily at the slightly rickety back of Steward Cao, who was hidden in the night.
He's an old thing, why should he teach her a lesson? Hum! If nothing had happened to her father, she would also be the daughter of an official eunuch now!
Zhang Luo'er turned his head and entered the courtyard, thinking in his heart that one day when he sat in the position of the general's wife, he would definitely be the first to kill this old thing!
On An Ge's side, the remaining three people don't have the heart to eat, just feel free
After eating a few bites, Jinglan asked the maid to withdraw the meal.
Yuan Qilu sat aside drinking tea at this time, and An Ge took some of the numbers that had just been calculated and explained his strategy in detail with Jinglan: "Now a copy of the newspaper is only sold for one dollar, and I don't charge for writing articles, this cost can not be counted for the time being, the factory is used by the general to ask the emperor for privileges, but the paper and ink used are all spent by ourselves, and this cost has to be counted." The boss at the book market sells it on behalf of them, and they also have to make a profit from it, which is also considered a cost. Removing these, we really don't make much money in the short term, and life is tight......"
Jing Lan muttered in his heart, our General's Mansion is not short of that little money, if you are happy, I will allocate tens of thousands of taels of silver for you to squander...... But in the end, you can't surprise her, you just think so in your heart.
An Ge raised his head to look at Jing Lan again, and asked, "General, I plan to make a newspaper with pictures, the cost will be more expensive, do you think it's okay?" ”
Jing Lan smiled: "Whatever you want to do, just let it go, and I will cooperate with you." ”
"That's great! But I promise you, I'll keep the cost to a minimum! An Ge smiled and said, "General, do you have a familiar painter who can help you paint a portrait, you must be the one with excellent painting, at least you can deduce your handsome youthfulness." And do you have any carpenter friends you are familiar with? The kind of ...... where you don't have to spend money to use favors directly"
Jing Lan thought for a while and replied: "The painters in the palace are naturally the best, and if you look for them to paint, you don't have to pay money." ”
"That's great!"
As soon as An Ge raised his eyebrows, Jing Lan said lightly: "However, gifts in private are still indispensable, and the gifts for the painters in the palace must be heavy." Although I don't like to socialize, it doesn't mean that I don't know anything about communication, at least I can't do it if I ask someone for help with empty teeth. ”
An Ge frowned, looked at Jing Lan and said, "I have to calculate the cost of the gift you gave?" ”
Jing Lan looked at her for a long time and didn't speak, he was really curious about how An Youping cultivated the daughter of the An family into a miser.
"Don't forget it, it's my private one."
An Ge was obviously relieved, so the cost was less, but well, his own Di Bao is a picture Di Bao, I don't know how many times higher than the "Harem Di Newspaper", so you can also increase the price appropriately, at least it is no problem to sell it for two dollars of silver.
In this way, you can start to slowly return to your capital and make money, and she and Liu Pingle don't have to work in vain.
"Then I'll wait for the good news from the general."
Jing Lan glanced at her deeply, and said quietly: "You won't cause me any trouble, right?" ”
"How so! Absolutely not! An Ge swore an oath, but his heart was a little empty......
The idea she came up with was to use Jing Lan's good-looking face, and when the time comes, those women who admire Jing Lan's beauty will buy "Beijing Daily" and go back, if they admire it to a certain point, maybe they will buy one hundred and eighty copies.
As for the trouble...... Jinglan is now eighteen years old, he is not too young, and he has not yet married a wife, so there is nothing bad about becoming famous in Kyoto at this time, and it will be easier to discuss marriage in the future.
Jing Lan seemed to really believe it, nodded and said, "Then I will enter the palace tomorrow to borrow the imperial painter from the emperor in the palace." ”
An Ge was overjoyed in his heart, as if he saw that the road to fortune was beckoning to him.
Wait, it seems that the purpose of coming to the capital is to check my mother's posthumous work, and what am I doing now...
… This message flashed in An Ge's head, and he suddenly felt sorry for his mother......
Hey, how convenient it was to go into the palace to find his mother's posthumous work when he was attached to the Di Bao Mansion, but who called himself such a hard temper, once he touched the bottom line, he couldn't continue to lower his eyebrows and be obedient under Liu Yongxu, and he impulsively ran out and ran out to set up a Di Bao by himself to bring down Liu Yongxu......
Ahhhhh
A few days later, Jing Lan brought to An Ge the portrait drawn by the palace painter and the wooden board carved by the woodworker, and the portrait of Jing Lan on the wooden board was embossed, and it could be printed like movable type printing with ink.
An Ge rubbed a reference with a wooden board, and looked at the portrait of Jinglan with the rubbing for a long time, and secretly admired the painting skills of the painters in the palace are not ordinary, just like Jinglan's living people!
The more she looked at it, the more she felt good-looking, so she simply put this one away as a souvenir, after all, this was the first picture of the mansion newspaper born under her own ideas.
She rubbed another copy, and also wrote the title of this picture on the right: Jing Lan, the iron-blooded general who is majestic and vigorous in all directions.
She also knew that this topic would definitely not be able to pass to Jing Lan, so this time she didn't give the articles and pictures of Di Bao to Jing Lan and ask him to bring them to the factory, but asked Yuan Qilu to contact Chang Tuzhi privately, and then entrusted Chang Tuzhi to take all the things to the factory.
Chang Tuzhi already regarded An Ge as the general's wife in his heart, so he honestly took over the errand. He was also illiterate, and he didn't know what was written on it, so he didn't show it to Jinglan and sent it to the factory.
On the second day, Jing Lan's portrait was printed on the first page of the Beijing Daily, and placed in the most conspicuous position on the shelf.
Just two hours later, news came from the book market:
"Miss Zhou bought two hundred copies!"
"Miss Xie bought six hundred copies!"
"Miss Huang bought a thousand copies of !! by herself"
When An Ge heard these news, he was thinking about whether to send some back to her father when he made money in the future, but Jing Lan angrily entered An Ge's small courtyard.
He threw today's "Beijing News" in front of An Ge and said angrily: "Didn't you say that you wouldn't cause trouble for me?" ”
An Ge was a little weak-hearted: "You...... You also said that no matter what I do, you will support me. ”
"......" Jinglan was really angry and had no temper, and she also knew that she was not angry that she was causing trouble for herself, but that she was angry that she printed his portrait on the newspaper and sold it!
She just wants to call all the women in the capital to come and pester him! I'm not jealous at all!
The more Jing Lan thought about it, the more angry he became, and he slapped it on the bookcase at hand, and a piece of paper on the top of the bookcase fell down, Jing Lan subconsciously turned his eyes to look, just one glance, and the resentment in his stomach was all gone.
Note: A book of Di reports a penny of silver, the "money" here is a unit of measurement, one tael is equal to sixteen money, and the "text" is different, check a tael of silver about more than 1,000 Wen, the number is too big to calculate, so take the "money" to calculate. Xiaoyu wrote some information about the cost pricing of ancient books and newspapers in the comment area and related to the work, but other stations are estimated to be invisible, so I will mention it here.
