Chapter 139: The Red Chamber Comes Out

After waiting for a while, He Neng came out of the bookstore, with the deposit given by the bookstore owner, and He Neng would be able to take the future share.

According to how can he say, the steward who was in charge of reading the manuscript got this "Dream of Red Mansions", which was full of praise, and he said that he had never read such a wonderful novel of talented and beautiful women.

The descriptions of various food and clothing in it are extremely extravagant, but they are quite realistic, and they are worthy of being written by people in the palace.

When He Qiu heard this, he chattered in his heart, Yan Wangfu was killed, I can't take the blame, I have to keep a low profile in the future, and act in a low profile.

He also said that the steward was fascinated, and if he hadn't been able to urge, he was afraid that he would not let him out until dark, and before leaving, he promised that he would definitely put the book in the first place.

The effect of this Red Mansion is really outstanding, and it has gained such a die-hard fan as soon as it came out.

After getting this, He Qiu didn't care anymore, and let He Neng lead him back to Yanwang's Mansion to be comfortable.

This is not an ordinary person who publishes in Beiping, and it is even more important to make the bookstore the first in Beiping.

The owner of this bookstore is the original court official, and now Zhishi is at home, running a bookstore, and there is one more layoff in his hand, which can be regarded as doing good deeds for local scholars.

This Red Mansion was soon presented by the bookstore manager, and this Master Liu was pleasantly surprised when he stayed up all night reading it.

This book has changed the popular genre nowadays, using the chapter back style, the writing is elegant and concise, the grass snake gray line, the veins are thousands of miles, the author's literary style is high, and it is really rare in the world.

Take a look at the author's name, Cao Xueqin.

I secretly wondered in my heart, who is this Cao family? I haven't heard of his name in the literary world, but when I heard that it was sent by someone from King Yan's mansion, he suddenly realized, it seems that it is one in the mansion, and he will not be known by others that he wrote it by himself, so he made it under a pseudonym.

But in this way, some of the plots in the book are up for debate, does the Zhen family in the book be so rich, does it mean that this King Yan wants to do something to the salt merchants in Jiangnan?

Master Liu doesn't know why, but he is still extremely happy that such a masterpiece has come out of the literary world, and it is a good thing that it is published in his bookstore, and he can make a lot of money from it.

Overnight, the craftsmen arranged for typesetting, and the book was published in three days.

The housekeeper of the bookstore received a strict order from the owner, and since he did not dare to delay, he turned on his full horsepower to find someone to pick up the characters and make up the letterpress.

This steward is also a shrewd man, he thinks that this book must be popular throughout the Ming Dynasty, so he took it upon himself to print it in two batches.

A batch of high-quality paper and ink, printed and sold to the dignitaries in the city, a book costs one or two silver, love to buy it or not, think this group of nobles do not care about this little money.

The other batch, printed with the worst paper and ink, was sold to the common people, and some shy scholars, in a word, we must not let the pirated booksellers take advantage.

A few days later, He Qiu was still quiet.

But the whole of Beiping became boiling, and in the deep boudoir compound, the ladies of all big families held a copy of the Dream of Red Mansions and sang the funeral flowers obsessively.

There were also many storytellers in teahouses and taverns who began to talk about the book, and some readers even fought for the hairpin and dai dispute.

On the other hand, in the underground bookstore, a novel called "Golden Vase Plum" is also widely circulated.

The manuscript written by Lao Zhao, He Qiu has already read it, the pen is really old-fashioned, and a few half-concealed illustrations, tsk, it's really unstoppable!

So I happily gave all the outlines behind to Lao Zhao, maybe Lao Zhao was also inspired and in excellent condition, only a few days later, the first volume of "Golden Vase Plum" has also been published on the market.

Many readers secretly watched it in private, and at the same time secretly scolded Pan Jinlian for being shameless and insulting the author.

But it is precisely this kind of excitement that can only be watched secretly that makes many people want to stop, and they can't wait to arrest this Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, lock him in a small black room, and let him continue to write.

Who made this book understand everyone's minds too well, and just broke the plot at the place where Pan Jinlian wanted to poison Wu Dalang.

Everyone has heard of this Water Margin, although they all probably know the plot behind it, which is nothing more than Wu Song killing his sister-in-law.

But this is the Golden Bottle Plum, and the Water Margin are not the same thing, the focus is all on Pan Jinlian and the Ximen officials.

Many people have found that Dream of Red Mansions, which is now very popular on the market, and this Golden Bottle Plum Coincidentally adopts the genre of chapter hui, which is refreshing.

Dream of Red Mansions writes the scenery of a high-ranking family, and Jin Zhumei writes a lot of customs and customs in the market, and the characters of both are written vividly, isn't this a new genre?

Scholars who wanted to make money invariably began to study these two books, and many people began to secretly start creating in vests, and for a time there were many more chapters and novels on the market.

All of a sudden, the novel market in Peking was surging.

It wasn't until Zhu Yuying found He Qiu and talked about Jia Baoyu in front of him that He Qiu knew how much his book had set off in the world.

He Qiu asked her with interest: "Then which one do you admire more?" ”

Zhu Yuying said without hesitation, Baochai.

He Qiu bowed his head, as he expected, Zhu Yuying likes to do business, and her own perfume business has always been entrusted to her, so he naturally appreciates the more atmospheric Baochai.

Zhu Yuying also said: "Recently, the sisters who came to buy perfume in the city mentioned this book, and they all cried and cried, saying that this book had reached their hearts. ”

He Qiu was a little curious and a little surprised, "Why did it come to your woman's heart?" ”

Zhu Yuying just sighed, "Even if the women in this world are as smart as hairpins, they can't be the masters of marriage, and if they can't say it, they will marry pickled people like Jia Rong, and the better ones are rich idlers like Jia Baoyu, first-class waste, and in the end they are all buried with the Jia family, isn't it pitiful?" ”

He Qiu was dumbfounded, "This is your own idea, I can't say that many of your sisters still like Baoyu very much." ”

"Hmph." Zhu Yuying's nose was wrinkled, she looked very cute, and her face was unconvinced, it seemed that she was said by He Qiu.

Come to think of it, even in later generations, in such an era of equality between men and women, there are still many women who like characters like Jia Baoyu, not to mention the strict etiquette of Daming?

Even the "West Chamber", which women love to watch on weekdays, is not a story of a poor scholar cheating on marriage, but the ending of the story is not bad.

He Qiu, who has a heavy smell of low-level literati obscenity, doesn't want to see it, Cui Yingying is a daughter of the prime minister's family, so she should be deceived by Zhang Sheng?

I don't know how many people participate in the imperial examination like Zhang Sheng every year, and how many people can be admitted to the Jinshi?
