"I'll give, as long as you can talk about one more chapter, I'll also give ten taels, give it now!"

Saying that, a local tyrant and nobleman directly untied the money bag, took out an ingot of gold, and threw it towards Xiao Rui without looking.

Well? What do you mean? Special mother, what do you think of the master? How is this posture like in the Goolan Courtyard, where you compete for the Oiran's overnight fee?

With a black face and didn't pick up the gold that fell on the ground, Xiao Rui snorted coldly, and said angrily: "I will talk about two chapters a day, and the listener will pay the money to have a seat, and I originally just wanted to charge one or two pieces of silver to be a throat moistener." Right now? Hehe, I'm in a bad mood, it's up, ten or two! Gold, not negotiable. I love to hear it, I don't like to hear it. ”

After speaking, Xiao Rui turned around and strode back to the house, and a group of listeners were dumbfounded on the spot, ten taels? Gold? Are you robbing money?

When I came back to my senses, I don't know who shouted, "It's all to blame for the troubled Lukan, if you hadn't offended the master of the horse, we would have listened to it for a tael of silver, but now it's good, ten taels of gold, listening to it once is enough to buy a book with ten chapters." ”

Everyone glared angrily at the man who threw the gold, and the other fled in fright. So this one named Lu Kan became the first person Xiao Rui to lose his powder.

"No wonder Chang'an is rumored that he Xiao Rui is a bad star, and he talks about ten golds? A book of words is also sold for ten gold, and the attitude is extremely bad, full of mountain bandits! Evil Star! On the carriage back, Lu Kan cursed and cursed Xiao Rui incessantly.

The scholar next to him rolled his eyes and said enviously: "Childe, ten gold, then wouldn't he be able to make a lot of money?" ”

Lu Kan slapped the scholar on the head, "It's not promising, haven't I seen money for your young master?" That is, people like him need to show up to earn money, and our Lu family has endless money since birth. ”

The scholar stuck out his tongue, and his eyes rolled and he had a good idea: "Young master, not many people can afford to buy his book for ten gold at all, right?" Why don't we find someone to copy and sell it? As long as the price is less than ten gold, it will definitely sell better than his. ”

Lukan slapped him again: "Bastard! How could the young master of my dignified Fan Yang Lu clan do that businessman's pickled thing? ”

The scholar persuaded: "No, young master, we are not here to make money. You see, that Xiao Rui doesn't give you any face today, then we will smash his business, as long as he can't sell his words, then he won't make money...... Hehe, if he can't make money, will he still be happy? ”

Well? smashed Xiao Rui's deal?

Lukan frowned slightly, and then curled the corners of his mouth: "Yes, you kid is treacherous enough." Okay, then you'll take care of that. ”

"Okay young master, but I want to borrow the notebook in your hand, so I can find someone to copy it. I also need some money to do the capital. ”

Lu Kan waved his hand, "Give you a hundred taels of silver, and if you do a good job, the young master will be rewarded!" ”

The scholar is very loyal, "Thank you for the young master's reward, as long as you can help the young master get angry." ”

In Chang'an City, a storm of westward travel soon arose, and the people who were swept up were mainly wealthy aristocratic families, and ordinary people basically never heard of it, because no one could afford it, even if it was pirated by Lukan, it would cost ten taels of silver a volume. Ten taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family's expenses for a year.

At the same time, the emperor was also holding a copy of the original in the Lizheng Palace, looking at it with relish, and muttering: "How can this kid understand so many things about fairies and ghosts?" Where did he learn from? And the portrait on the door, can it really suppress evil spirits and drive away ghosts? Do you want to try it? ”

That's right, Journey to the West originally talked about the tenth chapter: Tang Taizong's underground mansion returned to the soul, and the ghost was suppressed in front of the second general's door. King Tang was hooked away by the ghost, swam around the underworld and came back, dreaming of the soul asking for his life every day, so scared that he couldn't sleep at night, so that the two generals of Qin Shu, Baowei and Chi Gong guarded the door. It also led to the follow-up stories of sending people to the west to learn scriptures, doing Buddhist things, making some merits to offset sins, and so on.

But Xiao Rui can't say that, he can only pretend to be a dynasty in ancient times......

The eldest grandson queen next to her was also addicted to this book, "A monkey can be told by him so legendary, this kid is either very good at making up stories to deceive people, or he is the reincarnation of a fairy who has seen it with his own eyes." Otherwise, how could one person understand so much? ”

Li Erbai glanced at him, "If he is the reincarnation of an immortal, he is not Xiao Yu's son." In my opinion, he is a complete liar, and his mouth is all used to coax girls. ”

The queen covered her mouth and smiled: "Where is it, although this child is a little romantic, he has never been contaminated with bad habits, and he is measured." ”

At this moment, the chamberlain Lao Gao came over with a nervous face, wanting to speak and stopping, wanting to whisper in the emperor's ear, but he was afraid of the queen.

"You talk about business, and the concubine goes out."

Li Erbai glanced at his subordinates: "Just say anything, the queen doesn't have to hide it." ”

Lao Gao opened his mouth and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Niangniang, Master Ma has been preaching every day in the manor, and a large number of children of high-ranking officials and nobles have gathered. ”

"Hmph, this is normal, a group of young people have nothing to do on weekdays, and they like this kind of pastime the most." Li Er did not doubt that he had him, and the queen also stopped.

Lao Gao whispered: "But it's faintly wrong recently, most of the people who go to spend money to listen to books are women, and the next person came to report that many women shouted that they wanted to marry and marry the master of the horse......"

Bang! Li Er was so angry that he threw out the notebook in his hand. This bastard, so without boasting?

(Xiao Rui: The Chang'an girl is too enthusiastic, do you blame me?) ）

Glancing at the queen who was also frowning, Li Er changed his words and said, "Guanyin, don't you have something to go out?" Go ahead. This kid will be handed over to me to recuperate, and he will definitely be obedient and dare not do it again. ”

The queen spoke: "I'll go to see Xiangcheng, it's best not to let her know." ”

Lao Gao hurriedly said: "The two princesses lived in Xiaojiazhuang and didn't come back. ”

"Then what does Xiangcheng think about this?" Li Er asked curiously.

"It seems, it seems that they are all used to it, Princess Xiangcheng said, the more people like it, the more it can prove the talent of the horse master, which is a good thing."

Li Er and his wife covered their eyes at the same time, and said in their hearts, this stupid daughter, are you so boastful? There are more red and willow greens around him, can a man not have an accident?

After a moment of silence, Li Er asked the queen to leave the palace and go to Xiaojiazhuang in person to visit the old man, and at the same time bring the two daughters back, and warn Xiao Rui again. And Li Er himself began to think of countermeasures, Xiao Rui, a scourge, no matter where he goes, it will not be over if he doesn't cause a problem. I'm giving you a month's vacation, you're going to take a long vacation, are you going to take a long vacation?

The arrival of the queen has a remarkable effect, Xiao Rui stopped opening the door to talk about the book, and announced that he would not talk again, and would compile the later chapters into a book for sale, and those who want to know the plot behind can only wait for the book to be sold.

Although the audience and book fans were disappointed, they couldn't help it, Xiao Yuma's temper was not very good, and no one dared to jump out to oppose it, so they could only go back in frustration. A group of female book fans are even more envious of Princess Xiangcheng and Li Shengnan, and complain in their hearts, standing next to Xiao Yushi, why not me?

Two days later, Pei Lin found Xiao Rui with a few ordinary papyrus books, "Something happened, since you stopped talking, this kind of picture album has appeared on the market, and the price is ten taels of silver per book." It's clear that someone is playing tricks. ”

Xiao Rui took a look, "Hey, this special Datang also has pirated copies!" ”

Pei Xiao said in a deep voice: "Not only that, they published the book very quickly, and even the latest chapter you talked about two days ago is available." You see, this is the last volume. ”

How so? The last few chapters, our own are still being copied and bound, and they have not been released to the market, where are they pirated?

Open the papyrus script in your hand and look at it, good guy, this is not piracy, this is a high imitation! Someone listened to me on the spot, and went back and retold it from memory, although the rhetoric was a little rough, but it did not affect the interest of the story.

Pei Lin scolded: "This is clearly coming at us, I have already asked people to check, we must find out who is doing the ghost." ”

Xiao Rui shook his head and said, "Datang doesn't have an intellectual property protection law, how about finding it?" Do you overwhelm people with power? Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with this kind of beam-jumping clown. There is no follow-up story, they can't do this kind of thing for long, let's stop for a while, and then start selling when we are ready to deal with it. ”

Pei Lin thought about it, it's also the same reason, as long as the master doesn't tell the story later, then the pirated version can only sell this kind of existing chapters at most, and after a while, there will be no follow-up chapters, everyone should look forward to the original version of the book, who still remembers piracy?
