I went out of Rongguo Mansion to find Jia Qiang, and it happened that Jia Yun was also there.

Lu ...... Hello Uncle Lu. Jia Yun looked ashamed.

Jia Lu glanced at Jia Yun and said coldly, "Brother Yun is good." ”

Jia Yun nodded and said with a smile: "Third uncle, don't be angry with me, you said that Uncle Zhen came to ask me, do I dare not say it?" ”

Jia Lu sneered: "Don't you say that he still eats you?" ”

Jia Yun begged: "Third Uncle Lu, my nephew really knows that he is wrong. You're going to give your nephew a chance......"

Jia Lu said: "What do you have the opportunity to do?" Now I can't do this business, what do I do for you?

How did I tell you in the first place? No one can say anything about it, but it's good for you to sell me and Brother Qiang in just a few moments.

The key is to sell it at a good price, you are a fool and you don't have a penny of benefits?

You can find another way out by yourself, I have to study hard in the future, otherwise Brother Zhen said that he would go to the government to denounce me and let me go to prison.

Shall I give you a chance, a chance to sell me? ”

Jia Yun looked ashamed and couldn't answer.

Jia Qiang gave him a look and asked him to go first, so Jia Yun reluctantly went.

Jia Qiang also persuaded with a smile: "Third uncle, don't be angry, you also know that Jia Zhen is a powerful master, can Brother Yun not be afraid of him?"

He doesn't have a serious business, and it's not easy to rely on his wife for his life......"

Jia Lu glanced at Jia Qiang and said, "What, do you think I shouldn't blame him?" ”

Jia Qiang hurriedly said: "No, it's not like that, the third uncle is right." ”

Jia Lu sighed and said, "People, it's rare to be loyal. Before he could do anything, he left everything he promised behind, how can this kind of person be reused? Brother Qiang, can't you sell me too! ”

Jia Qiang hurriedly gambled and swore: "Third uncle, just rest assured, even if you put a knife on my neck, I won't say it." Otherwise, let me thunder and cut off my children and grandchildren......"

"Okay, okay, don't talk about those useless things, those things are all disposed of?"

Jia Qiang said: "Yes, except for the box that the third uncle took away, the rest of the jade artifacts that were not sold were pawned in a yard and buried." The house is near the left side of the Guozijian, this is the key, please put it away from the third uncle. ”

Jia Lu took the key and nodded, "Okay, you don't have to go there in the future."

I don't care about this jade business for the time being, I have other things for you to do. ”

Jia Qiang said: "The third uncle just orders. ”

Jia Lu asked, "Are you familiar with these teahouses near Ningrong Street?" ”

Jia Qiang smiled a little embarrassedly: "Don't hide it from the third uncle, when I used to live in Ningfu, I didn't lack money or study hard, but I followed Brother Rong to the tea shop to listen to books and eat tea to kill time." ”

Jia Lu asked again: "What books are popular in tea shops now?" ”

Jia Qiang replied: "Speaking of which, it's just that the heroes of the Water Margin, the heroes of the Three Kingdoms, and the legends of the heroes of the Tang Dynasty are tired of listening to them a lot, and there is nothing new and interesting." ”

Jia Lu nodded and said, "Very good, what I want you to do is to organize the storytellers everywhere and set up a guild!" ”

"Gong ...... Guild? Jia Qiang scratched her scalp: "What does this guild do?" ”

Jia Lu said: "It's just to organize them together, and when the time comes, I will write some short stories to tell them." ”

Jia Qiang looked confused, and said with a wry smile: "Third uncle, you don't know, you can't get a few rewards for this storyteller in a day, and you have to look at the face of the tea shop to eat, I'm afraid that they won't spend money to buy your story!" If you want to make money with this thing, I'm afraid it's a little difficult. ”

Jia Lu smiled and said, "I'm telling you how much you're going to make money?" Just write the story and tell it to them for free. ”

"Huh?" Jia Qiang was even more confused: "Don't make money? What do you do without making money, spending time and effort doing this? ”

Jia Lu said: "Play! ”

There is no shortage of people in Beijing who have nothing to do all day long and idle people. The teahouse is also one of the places where they love to gather.

And the teahouse has naturally become the best place to spread gossip and rumors in the capital.

If you gather all these storytellers scattered in the teahouse, it will be much more convenient to find out what news or spread in the future!

Although I don't see much benefit for a while, it may come in handy in the future.

What's more, it won't cost a few silver, and now Jia Qiang has nothing to do, so it's better to let him do it.

Jia Qiang naturally knew that although Jia Lu was a child, she would not let herself do these nonsensical things for no reason, and it was not good to ask Jia Lu about her deep meaning, so she had to agree.

Jia Lu said again: "Anyway, it's okay now, I'll tell you a little story, you listen to it, if you go to the tea shop and say that someone likes to listen to it?" ”

As he spoke, he talked about the "Painted Skin" in Liaozhai.

Jia Qiang listened to it and praised again and again: "I just thought that I had listened to a lot of books and watched a lot of plays, but I had never heard such a story with such twists and turns, which sounded slightly scary and made people want to listen to it!" It's even more interesting to let the storytellers tell it! ”

Jia Lu said: "These ghost stories are all short and concise, and I still have a long one, let me give you a rough outline." ”

As he spoke, he told Jia Qiang about the general plot of "Mirror Flowers".

Jia Qiang clapped her hands when she heard this and said, "This is okay!" How did the third uncle come up with those strange flowers and plants?

There are also daughter countries, gentleman countries, and two-faced countries, which sound absurd, but if you think about it, it seems to be satirizing the world, interesting, interesting!

It's just that I don't know when the third uncle will have time to write? I can't wait to hear it now! ”

Jia Lu smiled: "This really takes some time. I'll write a few short stories and show them to the storytellers.

Tell them that if they want to tell our new story, they have to join our union.

As long as you join the union, there will be a lot of fresh stories in the future, don't talk about money, if you say it well, I will give you a reward! ”

Jia Qiang patted her head: "I know!" The third uncle wants fame! I want to use their mouths to make a name for the third uncle! ”

Although some miscellaneous dramas such as "The Legend of the West Chamber" and "The Peony Pavilion" in the world of Red Mansions are regarded as flood beasts and cannot be shown to the sons and ladies of the family, writing a script is an elegant thing among literati and writers.

It is definitely a face-saving thing to be able to write a book that is sung and is familiar to everyone.

Jia Lu smiled: "That's pretty much what it means!" Can I teach you exactly how to do it? ”

Jia Qiang patted her chest and said, "No, as long as the third uncle gives me your story manuscript, I'll talk to those storytellers one by one!" With this kind of good thing, who wouldn't rush to join our guild?

This idea can't be done in a small way, how can you follow the third uncle to do big things in the future? ”

Jia Lu said: "I don't want to be in the limelight for the time being, you don't have to say that it was a story written by me, just say that you wrote it yourself!" Otherwise, the second master will inevitably say that I am not doing my job. ”

"Nephew wrote it down!" Jia Qiang happily agreed.

"Also, since there is a guild, there should always be a house. You pawn a slightly larger mansion as a guild gathering place, and find a helper to help you, so that the storytellers know that we sincerely want to do this. ”

Jia Qiang agreed, hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't you ...... Let Brother Yun help me fight? ”

Jia Lu frowned: "You are kind!" ”

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "I see that Brother Yun is also clever, if the third uncle refuses to believe him, I will find someone else." ”

Jia Lu said: "That's it, you just go to be a good person once, just tell him that if you do something wrong again, don't do things under me in the future." ”
