After she was busy with this, Yao Shuqi said: "Young master, there is a matter, because you have been busy and the matter is not very urgent, I have not reported it to you." ”

"What's the matter?"

"It's the same thing I mentioned to you last time, about the teahouse and the script. That teahouse has been operating at a low price for a while, and although it has attracted a small number of customers, it has no effect on us because of our wonderful words. Later, I was afraid that it would not be able to support it, so it raised the price. Now it has been operating in a hurry, which is not a problem. But somehow, yesterday it suddenly reopened with a plaque, and at the same time opened a branch in the west of the city. They lowered the price to a very low price, and launched two new scripts, which are no worse than our "Condor Heroes" and "Dragon Babu", and several times I have heard the tea guests in the teahouse discussing the plot over there. ”

When Yao Shuqi said this, he raised his head and glanced at Du Jinning, seeing that her expression was still calm, and she didn't even frown. He settled down and continued: "Now that "Dragon Babu" is finished soon, and "The Condor Heroes" has also said most of it, I am afraid that the tea customers will not be viscous enough, greedy for freshness and cheapness, and run to him. You must know that their teahouse is not far from our two shops, and one of them is still door-to-door. ”

Originally, he wanted to tell Du Jinning about this matter a long time ago, so that she could prepare early, and write a new script when she should write a new script. But "Dragon Babu" and "The Condor Heroes" are still being written, Du Jinning finished the government exam, and it was the hospital exam only four months later. A person's energy is limited, and Du Jinning is not specialized in writing scripts. How can the business of the teahouse be compared with the scientific expedition and the future? Even if the teahouse closes down, Du Jinning still has other businesses under her name that can maintain her support for her family and study, and she can't bother her with this matter.

So he kept holding back.

And he's not without countermeasures. It's just that the person who invited to write the script was not as wonderful as what Du Jinning wrote himself.

"Don't worry." Du Jinning was prepared for this, she tapped the table with her fingers, "I will write another script, the theme is Xianxia." I still say the same thing, we are not afraid of fair competition, as long as they make those indiscriminate methods, we will ignore them. If the business is robbed because the words are not as exciting as the other party, I will admit defeat in the bet. And Uncle Yao, you also have to be mentally prepared, a profession cannot be prosperous all the time. It's normal for a red fire to weaken after a while. Even if the business in Gui Province is robbed, it doesn't matter, we can do business elsewhere. ”

Du Jinning and Liang Xiankuan partnered to open a teahouse in the capital, Yao Shuqi knew about it, and during this time, he was also teaching the Liang family's steward the experience of operating the teahouse. And his focus has shifted to the direction of the housekeeper, and he no longer suffers from gains and losses as before, for fear that if this business is not done well, Du Jinning will be disappointed in him, so he will replace him and let him sit on the cold bench.

His mentality is no longer the same as it was at the beginning, at least he can look at this problem very objectively.

He nodded approvingly and said, "Okay, I see." However, I believe that the young master's words cannot be compared to anyone. Even if the tea customers are greedy for freshness for a while, they will eventually return to our teahouse. ”

Du Jinning waved his hand. The people of this era attach great importance to literature and ignore reason, and the content of the imperial examination determines that they are too many literati with high levels of literature when they are young. As long as you are willing to pay for the training of writers, it is not impossible to write a much more wonderful than Jin Yong. She didn't feel that she was standing on the shoulders of giants, that she was invincible. She knows the facts.

"How's it going to be with the person I asked you to find to write the script?" She asked.

"Looked for two. One is called Lu Wen and the other is Shi Shaocong. What they write is okay, but it's far from your level. But there is no way, there are very few talented people who make a living by writing scripts, and even fewer people are willing to sign contracts with us. I'm also a general among the dwarves, so I chose these two. ”

"You show me what they wrote first."

"Okay, young master."

Yao Shuqi saw that Du Jinning had no other instructions, so he retreated, and after a while, he asked Aoki to send two thin scripts to Du Jinning's desk.

Aoki is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy who was bought with Aunt Zhu. Yao Shuqi felt that Jiangbei lacked training, and his temperament was also a little arrogant, so he was a little uneasy, so he pulled the young man he felt very good over to Du Jinning to be a small servant. Aoki originally had a name given by the original owner, and when he came to serve Du Jinning, he took the initiative to ask the young master to give him a name. Du Jinning casually gave him the name of Aoki.

Originally, Du Jinning had something to do with Jiangbei, but now Aoki's arrival has made Jiangbei both aggrieved and full of crisis. Recently, he has been learning how to be a reasonable little guy from watching chess, and he has asked Zhongbo to give him guidance, and he has grown a lot better than before.

It can be seen that only with competition can there be the motivation for progress.

Du Jinning flipped through it, one was written about talented and beautiful women; One is a follow-up work modeled on "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but the author is probably not used to writing long stories, and the framework at the beginning is too small, and finally it is written as a short story.

The writing of the two books is very good, the characters are vivid, and the plot is quite tortuous and attractive. Of course, without these advantages, they would not have been put on Du Jinning's desk.

"You ask Uncle Yao to come over." She said to Aoki.

"Okay, young master." Aoki agreed, gave a salute and withdrew.

He received a good education in the original owner's house, and he was careful and knew the rules, which made Du Jinning very easy to call. Unlike Jiangbei, because he has never served anyone, there are some things that he can't think of doing if you don't explain them clearly. Originally, Du Jinning didn't feel that now that he was compared to Aoki like this, he seemed too passive.

After a while, Yao Shuqi came over.

Du Jinning pointed to the two scripts: "These two people, have you signed a contract with them?" ”

"Signed." Yao Shuqi said, "And according to your instructions, young master, the confidentiality regulations were also written in it, and the liquidated damages were set at 1,000 taels of silver, and I went to the government to sign the red deed." For this, these two people hesitated for a month before signing. Originally, there was another person, because the rules of our contract were a bit harsh, so he didn't sign the contract. ”

Du Jinning nodded; "Then you can call them over."

"Yes, young master."

After Yao Shuqi left, Du Jinning sharpened the ink and began to write the script.

She plans to write the book "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals".
