Chapter 380: Nangong Yu, who pretends to be smart
Although she is a person from the Dark Night Hall, Xu Lian is a girl and her cooking skills are also good. A table full of sumptuous meals, Luo Qingluan was satisfied. Xu Wei even ate five bowls, and was laughed at by Xu Lian for being a rice bucket, which made him blush.
As the sun set, Luo Qingluan sat at the desk in front of the window, still writing the story of the White Snake by daylight. Although she saw the situation of Shengshi Book Store at noon, she was not anxious at all, the means are the means, and being able to attract customers is one thing, but the more important thing is the story itself.
She listened to the story of Shengshi Bookstore, and also asked Xu Wei to buy a book to read the content carefully. Although the story of this story is more interesting and readable than the stories sold in the world before, and it is also full of young people's love for romantic love, but ......
Compared with the biography of the White Snake she wrote, it is still much worse.
Not to mention anything else, the story of Shengshi Book House is to put it bluntly, it is still a routine of talented and beautiful people, but the reader has been replaced by a young man in the rivers and lakes, and the rich lady has been replaced by an official lady, which is basically a new bottle and old, nothing surprising.
For Dongwan, who are tired of reading the books of the past, maybe this story can attract some people, and Shengshi Bookstore has made a form of storytelling, so the storyteller is good, so today's effect is not bad.
Ke Luo Qingluan dared to guarantee that as soon as the story of the White Snake she wrote came out, she would definitely kill the other party in seconds.
Those readers, young ladies and boring market businessmen, but whoever likes to read these idle books, who has ever seen the heroine who is a snake? The story of a beautiful snake spirit who has practiced for thousands of years and a kind and honest drugstore schoolboy will definitely surprise them beyond their imagination.
There are enough books in Baiwei Study, but Luo Qingluan has never seen a similar book. There are indeed books about goblins and ghosts, but she found that the content is the same as the opposite, no matter what goblins, ghosts, all of them are harmful, what female ghosts suck yang energy, fox spirits confuse people, and finally be eradicated by the masters. If everyone sees her different White Snake Legend, it will be an eye-opener and breathtaking.
This is also the reason why Luo Qingluan chose the story of the White Snake. Because there is none, I have to be the first to come and let those people know how delicious the crab is!
Just when Luo Qingluan was seriously writing the story of the White Snake, Nangong Yu was about to exhaust and exhausted when she looked for her.
The dignified second prince of the Western Chu Kingdom, Nangong Yu has always been idle and used to it, and he has never thought about the throne, so he wants to be a free prince. If it weren't for his eldest brother Nangong Qing and to appease his father's anger, how could he come all the way to Dongwan to endure hardships?
No matter how hard he put into it, he asked everywhere about Luo Qingluan's whereabouts, but it had been half a month, and there was no movement at all. If it weren't for Nalan Ye personally saying that Luo Qingluan was in Dongwan, he would have wondered if there was something wrong with the news.
Seeing that time passed day by day, Nangong Yu received another message from Nangong Qing, saying that his father had been intimidated by Nalan Ye once, and his condition had worsened again. Nangong Yu was even more panicked, but because he couldn't find Luo Qingluan at all, he ate a lot less food in a hurry.
"Miss Luo, Miss Luo, Princess Chu, Princess Chu, where are you hiding? Let me find it, okay? Nangong Yu muttered to himself, his brows furrowed into a Sichuan character.
Seeing that the situation in Xichu was getting more and more tense, Nangong Yu didn't dare to imagine what would happen if his father was really angry with Nalan Ye? But Nangong Yu can't blame Nalan Ye, after all, it was his father who was at fault first, if he hadn't wronged Luo Qingluan, how could something happen later!
So now, Nangong Yu has only one thought, and that is to find Luo Qingluan as soon as possible. Whatever method you use, be sure to find her!
Not only did he send his subordinates out and look everywhere in Dongwan, but even Nangong Yu himself was in no mood to have fun. In normal times, he might still go to the streets or see how his business is, but now Nangong Yu has personally dispatched.
Thinking about where Luo Qingluan is likely to appear, Nangong Yu knows her character, Luo Qingluan has the best medical skills, and she is very particular about eating, and she is familiar with music and rhythm, so where she is likely to appear, will it be a pharmacy or a major restaurant?
Anyway, Nangong Yu can only try his luck anyway.
With four entourage, Nangong Yu walked around the streets of Dongwan. Although it seemed to be playing, his gaze swept over everyone who passed by. He remembered that the first time Luo Qingluan went to his Mengxian Tower, he was dressed as a woman, so Nangong Yu didn't even let go of a man, but whenever he saw a girl in his twenties, or a young man, he always had to check it.
It's just that the eyes sweep by, and they don't stare at each other sneakily, so they don't cause unhappiness or alarm to passers-by. Nangong Yu is already very familiar with Luo Qingluan, as long as he glances, or looks at people's movements, expressions and postures, he can tell whether this person is Luo Qingluan or not.
It's a pity that after almost an hour of shopping on the street, Nangong Yu still has no gain.
"Childe, why don't we go back? You see it's so hot, if you're tired, what's going on? "A casual whispered suggestion.
Nangong Yu said angrily: "If you can't find anyone, no one is allowed to go back!" You know the consequences, if something really goes wrong with your father, should you take this responsibility? ”
Several of the attendants glanced at each other, shrunk their necks, and didn't dare to say anything.
It's not that they feel that they are hard, but after all, Nangong Yu is the second prince of Western Chu, if he suffers from heat stroke because of looking for someone, or is tired, they can't afford to be guilty.
I had no choice but to keep looking.
One of his henchmen was very intimate and took up the umbrella and put it on Nangong Yu's head, and the other hurriedly took out a fan and fanned Nangong Yu incessantly. Nangong Yu became more and more upset, snatched the fan from his henchman's hand, and shook it violently, although it was cool, but the anxiety in his heart did not decrease at all.
Walking and walking, Nangong Yu walked to the vicinity of Shengshi Bookstore, and a few henchmen looked at the crowd in front of them, and their eyes lit up: "Son, look, why are there so many people in front?" ”
It's not unusual for there to be a lot of people, but what Nangong Yu thinks is that these people have blocked the road, so how can he pass?
He looked around, his eyes were stunned, and he saw that there were officials dressed in official mansions dredging the passage, and he suddenly felt strange. Hmm~ What's going on? A merchant can even ask people from the government to help when doing business, which has a background.
What is it about the business that attracts so many people? 、
For a while, Nangong Yu was also curious: "Go up and inquire and see what is going on." ”
"Yes, Childe."
A henchman immediately ran forward, and after a while, the henchman returned: "Childe, there is a bookstore in front of you that is selling new books. ”
Nangong Yu asked casually: "What book is so good, it has attracted so many people, could it be a book from heaven?" ”
The henchman smiled and said: "Son, my subordinates asked, is it a story called 'Jianghu Enmity Record', it seems that there are quite a lot of people who buy it, five taels of silver a copy, and it is still in short supply." ”
What is the record of enmity and feud? When Nangong Yu heard this name, his heart moved, could it be ......
He immediately thought of Luo Qingluan.
Because when she was in Xichu, Luo Qingluan was also in this business, and she also made a secret house by herself, specializing in writing some books. The study he cooperated with also got some small stories out, and the business was not bad, but the business of the prosperous book store in front of him was so good, could it be the story written by Luo Qingluan that he was looking for, right?
Thinking of this, Nangong Yu couldn't wait to say: "Hurry up and buy a copy and come back, this son wants to see what is written." ”
After a while, the henchman came back with a book, Nangong Yu grabbed it, opened it and looked at it, but he didn't read a few pages, and he suddenly became ecstatic.
This story is so exciting, who else can write it except Luo Qingluan? Needless to say, the person who wrote the story for Shengshi Book Company must be the person he was looking for.
Nangong Yu slapped his thigh excitedly: "It's really nowhere to find the iron shoes, it takes no effort to come here, I found you." ”
Nangong Yu immediately walked forward, even though there were countless people gambling around, he couldn't take care of it at this time. Not to mention waiting for these people to disperse, even if he was asked to wait for a quarter of an hour, he was impatient, and finally learned Luo Qingluan's whereabouts, how could he let it go? In case of a little delay, Luo Qingluan ran away again, and he didn't know where to look.
What Nangong Yu didn't expect was that the business of Shengshi Book Store was really hot today, and Wang Zhentian, as the owner, didn't have time to pay attention to him at all, even if he knew that Nangong Yu was a customer, he didn't have the heart to greet him, because he couldn't be busy at all. Yesterday alone, he sold 5,000 books, and today's sales order is coming again, and he is simply busy.
Nangong Yu screamed for a long time, wanting to ask who wrote this book, but don't say that those guys ignored him, and when they heard that he didn't come to buy books, they didn't pay attention to it at all.
There was no way, Nangong Yu directly took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels, slapped it on the table, and said to a guy in front of him: "Don't move, the books in front of you are all covered!" ”
The guy's eyelids jumped, and there were fifty more books in front of him, and he bought them all? He looked at the silver ticket, pouted and said, "Childe, you can't buy all the 100 taels, so let's take another 400 taels." ”
Nangong Yu's subordinates just wanted to get angry, but Nangong Yu didn't want to be bad, so he directly took out four silver tickets from his arms and handed them over: "It's okay now, all the books in front of you are sold out, and this son has something to ask you now, who wrote this book of yours?" ”
I don't know how many people are inquiring about this issue, and the guy has already been instructed by the owner, and he all said that he didn't know, but how could Nangong Yu be so good? He spent five hundred taels of silver, and if he didn't even have an answer, how could he stop.
"Okay, okay, don't ask me, Childe, you see that you have bought so many books, and you are also a big customer, you want to know who wrote this book, just ask our owner." The guy pointed to Wang Zhentian next to him, and Nangong Yu noticed it and immediately walked towards the lobby.
Waiting for him to explain his intentions, Wang Zhentian looked Nangong Yu up and down, squinted his eyes and said, "Childe wants to know who wrote my book?" ”
Not only did he want to know who wrote this book, but Nangong Yu also wanted to find her and bring her back.
Nangong Yu said directly: "As long as you tell me who wrote this book, I want to meet this person." ”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhentian immediately became vigilant, could this person be here to dig the foot of the wall? I finally hired a master to write such a wonderful story, which has already made him earn thousands of taels, how can he tell others directly? If you really let the opponent poach people, wouldn't the chickens that laid golden eggs be pry away for others?
Suddenly, Wang Zhentian looked at Nangong Yu: "I'm sorry son, this is a commercial secret, and I can't tell you about it." If it weren't for the fact that Nangong Yu was quite imposing, followed by his entourage, and dressed extraordinarily, and guessed that he was someone with some background, maybe she would have driven Nangong Yu out directly.
Seeing that the other party's face sank, Nangong Yu suddenly realized that he was too anxious. Just recklessly stepped forward to ask, if he was only afraid, he would not tell.
In order to find Luo Qingluan, Nangong Yu couldn't care about the face of the second prince of Xichu, so he smiled at the moment, with a smile on his face, and arched his hand towards Wang Zhentian: "Boss Wang, you misunderstood, you don't want to do anything." It's just that the pen is more than the business wants to talk to you. ”
"Business? What business does Childe want to discuss? If you want to buy a book, then everything is easy to say, my book is absolutely wonderful, you have to buy it to make sure you don't lose money. When it came to money, Boss Wang's face finally improved a little and he was a little more patient.
