"I heard that the latest issue of Liuqiao's 'Twelfth Floor' has come out, and I just learned the news, so I hurriedly came over to ask to see if there is any arrival here, but just now I asked the shopkeeper, and sure enough, only Fucheng Study has goods, and we are here, I'm afraid that we will have to wait until tomorrow to see it, it's really anxious! Yes, Brother Pingchuan, are you also here to see the latest issue of this 'Twelfth Floor'?" The young scholar was gushing again.

Jiang Yun didn't know anything about this Liuqiao monk, the twelfth floor, it seemed that he was a serious scholar, and he didn't have much knowledge of these books of talented and beautiful people.

He shook his head and said perfunctorily: "I haven't seen the 'twelfth floor' of this Liuqiao layman. ”

When the man heard this, he immediately showed a surprised expression and shouted: "What, you haven't even seen the twelfth floor of Liuqiao Jushi? This is a pity, Brother Pingchuan, you must take a look at this twelfth floor of Liuqiao Jushi, the story in it is too tortuous, too touching, what happened to the jade hairpin girl, it is really bumpy and bumpy, and it is sympathetic!"

As he spoke, his eyes turned a little red.

When Jiang Yun saw it, he couldn't help but be speechless, this person is simply a bookworm who reads books, similar to the previous Jiang Yun, but that Jiang Yun sees it as a serious subset of scriptures and histories, a book that has been used by the world, and this young scholar sees these immodest books.

"Miss Liu is here!"

"Miss Liu!"

At this time, from outside the door, one after the other, two people walked in, look at the appearance of the two, one is a young lady, the other is a maid, the young lady walking in front is about seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a beige plain dress, fair skin, delicate face, elegant and generous manners, at first glance is a well-educated boudoir daughter.

The maid who followed her was a little younger, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was also picturesque, well-behaved and lovely.

This Miss Liu seems to have a lot of background, and when she came in, many women in the study hall who were picking books recognized each other and greeted her one after another.

Miss Liu, who came in, nodded slightly to the people in the hall and smiled, and went straight to the counter in the hall. The shopkeeper of this fat inkstone is also a woman, who is in her prime, her eyebrows are lightly swept, and her face is beautiful.

When the female shopkeeper saw her, she didn't wait for the other party to speak, so she smiled and said, "Miss Liu is here for the 'twelfth floor' of Liuqiao Jushi." ”

Miss Liu hummed lightly and asked with a hint of expectation: "I heard that the latest issue of Liuqiao Jushi's 'Twelfth Floor' has come out, so I will take a look." ”

The female shopkeeper said: "I'm going to disappoint Miss Liu, the latest issue of Liuqiao's 'Twelfth Floor' has indeed come out, but Fucheng is not close to the local area, and the study will arrive, and it will have to wait until tomorrow, Miss Liu will come again early tomorrow morning, and it should be there at that time." ”

Miss Liu showed a hint of disappointment and sighed softly: "I already knew, but I still came to ask by luck." ”

The female shopkeeper smiled and said: "Although the 'twelfth floor' of Liuqiao has not yet come, there are also some new goods in the store, such as the 'embroidered red thread' of the bouldering mountain people, the 'soul of the Meihe monk', the 'Yuntai dream' of the mandarin ducks, etc., which are all good." ”

Miss Liu nodded and said, "Okay, Meihe's book is good, you can show it to me, and take the others to read it." ”

The female shopkeeper agreed, and then turned around with a smile to get the book for the other party.

This conversation between Miss Liu and the female shopkeeper, Jiang Yun listened to it in his ears, and was surprised in his heart, it seems that these talented and beautiful people, the books of the wind and snow, are they really popular here, the young scholar next to him and Miss Liu can't wait for a book.

At this time, a female customer walked past Jiang Yun with a large stack of books selected from the shelves.

Jiang Yun took a look, and saw that there were only about a dozen books in the woman's hand, although each one was only a thin volume, but the number was also considerable.

"This eldest sister is polite. He had the heart to inquire about the market, so he couldn't help but stop the other party and saluted.

The young eldest sister holding a large stack of books stopped when she heard the sound, and when she looked back at him, a trace of disdain flashed on her face, although these women like to read these books of wind and snow, talented and beautiful women, but for these men who have this kind of love, they still have some disdain in their hearts, after all, as a man, of course, they still focus on fame and fame, and they are addicted to these wind and snow, what is the matter in the books of affection and love.

However, seeing that the other party had a good attitude and was polite, she still couldn't help but ask impatiently, "What's the matter with this little brother?"

Jiang Yun pointed to the big stack of books in the other party's hand and asked, "This eldest sister, are these books to be bought and read?" ”

The young eldest sister felt amused and said, "Of course I bought them to see them, not to see what I did when I bought them!"

Jiang Yun sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that these women are even happier than me and other readers when they buy these books.

"It should be very expensive to buy so many copies at once. He asked again.

The young eldest sister said: "These books are also bought for other sisters, they all like to read them, and everyone takes turns to read them, and it is not very expensive." ”

"Oh, I see. Jiang Yun arched his hand again and didn't say anything more.

The young eldest sister glanced at him, and said earnestly: "This little brother, you should still focus on fame and study, these books of love and love, it is better to read less!"

After speaking, without waiting for Jiang Yunfen to speak, he turned his head and held the big stack of books and went to the counter to settle the bill.

Jiang Yun had nothing to say, and the young scholar next to him said at this time: "Brother Pingchuan, don't pay attention to these superficial opinions, I think that there are no unreadable books in the world, and the book of the Sage Avenue is naturally to be read, and the book of such talents and elegance can also be read pleasantly, harmless, so what's the matter with reading, but some people with shallow knowledge are biased and criticized, so don't pay attention to it." ”

Jiang Yun didn't refute the other party's words, and echoed the other party's meaning: "What this brother said is that I think so too. ”

The young scholar was even more happy, regarded Jiang Yun as a confidant, and immediately invited: "Brother Jiang has time at the moment, how about going to Qingfeng Tower for a few drinks together?"

Jiang Yun excused himself and said: "Brother Tai's kindness has been comprehended in my heart, and there are still some things in the future, so I can only bother it another day." ”

When the young scholar saw this, he didn't force it, but made an appointment at another time, and then he took his leave and left.

After the man left, Jiang Yun didn't pay any attention to it, and then remembered the "twelfth floor" of the Liuqiao monk he had just heard, so he found this book on the shelf, this book is still a serial novel, and now there are a total of nine volumes, Jiang Yun picked up the first of them and flipped through it casually.

"This son, you used to like this 'Twelfth Floor' of Liuqiao Layman. ”

As he was looking over, a loud voice came from his ears, Jiang Yun raised his eyes and saw a woman with a big waist standing in front of him, with a low nose and thick lips, big ears, and a big grin, smiling at him.

Jiang Yun was startled, hurriedly took a step back, distanced himself from the other party, and asked, "This girl, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

The woman twisted her bucket-like waist and snorted, "People are fine, but I see that you are also reading a book, and I want to discuss it with you." ”

Saying that, he pointed to the 'twelfth floor' he was looking at, and said: "This book on the twelfth floor is good, but people don't like it too much, that Wang Sheng is too hypocritical, twisting and pinching is not happy, the jade hairpin girl has opened her heart to him, and she has made a private life, but he hesitated, refused to elope with others early, and went away to the ends of the earth, causing the jade hairpin girl to fall into the fire pit again, it is really not a thing! ”

Jiang Yunnuo nodded and said, "Yes, yes." ”

The woman pointed to a booklet in her hand again, and said: "People like this 'crazy girl', Yingying girl and Ye Gongzi met in the study, it was fate to meet thousands of miles away, love at first sight, confide in each other, from then on the sky is high and the water is wide, love is stronger than gold, meet under the moon that night, privately make a lifelong decision, elope hand in hand, and wander the world from then on, flying high with wings, isn't it good, son, do you say yes." ”

Twisting his thick waist as he spoke, he threw a wink at the other party.

Jiang Yun shivered all over, got goosebumps, lowered his head and didn't dare to talk anymore.

Hearing this, the woman walked over from the side, Jiang Yun felt that there was one more thing in his hand, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be a small embroidered purse, and when he opened it, there was a small note stuffed inside.

He looked up and saw that the woman happened to turn her head again, stroking her chin with her hand, and smiling back at him.

A stream of disgusting acid water poured up, making him almost open his mouth to vomit, until the woman went to the counter to pay the money, twisted the bucket and walked out of the door without seeing, he picked up the small note inside, opened it and looked at it, only to see a few lines of small words written on it: "I want to know you with you, and you will go to the end of the world under the moon." At the east end of the town, at the time of the sub-hour, under the big willow tree, there is no sight or scattering".

What a mess, Jiang Yun crumpled the note into a ball and threw it into the trash can next to him.

He then flipped through the "twelfth floor", and after reading a few pages, he felt that he was not interested, the book tells the story of a poor scholar and a rich lady who love and love old-fashioned, just such a simple and old-fashioned story, it will have such a great attraction, attracting countless praises.

If you write it yourself, not to mention becoming popular and spreading for a while, it is not easy to make at least a little money to spend.

Yes, he has this idea now, since the vernacular novels here are so popular, and when he can't find any other way to make a living for the time being, he will follow the local customs, write some vernacular novels, books on children's love, and make a little money to spend.

This is now the most suitable business for him. And he was a liberal arts student before, and his professional direction happened to be the novel research of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and he was familiar with some popular vernacular novels of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and he still remembered most of the plots and texts in his head, such as the West Chamber, the Peony Pavilion, the Peach Blossom Fan, the Palace of Eternal Life, and the Dream of Red Mansions, etc., these classic vernacular novels, any one of them is written, he believes that they are enough to be popular here, attract popularity, and at least earn a little tuition fee.
